1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:01,960 Speaker 1: Time for catch up with Andrew Webster. The last time, 2 00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:04,040 Speaker 1: the season was full of hope and expectation. Of course, 3 00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:06,480 Speaker 1: since then, like seventy seasons, has been a rollercoaster of 4 00:00:06,559 --> 00:00:09,119 Speaker 1: the Titan shocking. Last Saturday, we made a comeback against 5 00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:11,080 Speaker 1: the Broncos and all that. So anyway, where are we at? 6 00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:12,479 Speaker 1: Andrew Webster back with us? 7 00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:14,480 Speaker 2: Good morning, morning, do you mate? 8 00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:16,520 Speaker 1: Now, it's been a while since we've talked, so let's 9 00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:19,480 Speaker 1: do it this way. The season so far summed up 10 00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:20,760 Speaker 1: for me from your point. 11 00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:26,759 Speaker 2: Of view, I'll be very inconsistent. Good football, probably better 12 00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:29,440 Speaker 2: than most, and our worst football is probably worse than most. 13 00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:32,520 Speaker 2: So we're not really in the middle enough at the moment. 14 00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:35,840 Speaker 2: But I was really proud of the boys. Waited about 15 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:38,760 Speaker 2: it back on the weekend, and we just kind of 16 00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:40,239 Speaker 2: find that consistency in the day. 17 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:42,280 Speaker 1: Exactly what do you put it down to? How do 18 00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:45,760 Speaker 1: you explain it? 19 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:47,840 Speaker 2: It's actually hard to put my finger on it, really, 20 00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:50,520 Speaker 2: and that's my job to work it out. I think 21 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 2: I think we lost four in a row, and I 22 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:57,480 Speaker 2: feel like the boys really wanted to increase the intensity 23 00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 2: in the way we trained. I think that's that had 24 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:04,840 Speaker 2: an impact, and I think it's just made sure our 25 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:07,520 Speaker 2: standards a high and that's what we're trying to do. 26 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,399 Speaker 2: So I think if we do that, we're going to 27 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 2: concentrate for longer in game, which will help us. And 28 00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:16,120 Speaker 2: if we do that, we're going to get to show 29 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 2: what we can do. But it's mind help to make 30 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 2: sure that we're more consistent what we do every day. 31 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:24,080 Speaker 1: How do we I don't want to dwell on it, 32 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 1: but the Titans thing was an extraordinary thing. Yeah, and 33 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 1: it was one of there seemed to be no comeback either. 34 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 1: So you can start poorly, that's okay, you can come 35 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 1: back from that, and yet we didn't. How do you 36 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:36,039 Speaker 1: explain that bit of it? 37 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,480 Speaker 2: Well, I physically thought were flat, but I just don't 38 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:45,560 Speaker 2: think that's enough excuse to consider sixty points. And the 39 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:49,640 Speaker 2: boys agree, you know that they're taking complete ownership around it. 40 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 2: I got no answer because I didn't see it coming. Often, 41 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 2: if you're not training well, or you put a four 42 00:01:56,440 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 2: team out behind the park, you probably think enalogy for 43 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 2: tough here, and I'm not once but felt that about 44 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 2: our group, and I could see that coming and my 45 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:09,240 Speaker 2: one thought thought that they wouldn't turn up, and you 46 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 2: might not get everything right, but at least we're going 47 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 2: to put an effort in that everyone can still be 48 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:18,680 Speaker 2: proud of. And yeah, it was a shock to the players, 49 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 2: and it was shocked to man for sure. 50 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 1: But what do you take out of the comeback we 51 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 1: saw over the weekend against the Broncos. Does that solve 52 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:32,360 Speaker 1: that problem or does it reassure you to some degree. 53 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 2: That that problem's gone? Really like that, that game had 54 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:36,359 Speaker 2: to go. We had to get rid of the woman 55 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 2: left Australia. The next morning, we had a review in 56 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,960 Speaker 2: the hotel and we watched it and we made sure 57 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 2: we didn't walk past it. And then I was really 58 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 2: wrapped the way the boys said the week up, they 59 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 2: were pretty motivated and what they wanted to do. But 60 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 2: I said to the boys, well, you know, as great 61 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 2: as I was against the Broncos and really proud that 62 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 2: we bounced back, we're going to find that style footing 63 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 2: in that game each week. If we want to do that, 64 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 2: we're going to do some really good things in this competition. 65 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 2: If we don't, we're going to keep any consistent and 66 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 2: frustration frustration around the way we play. 67 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 1: One of the frustrations for you or concerns for you 68 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 1: as we head too, I mean, with what what do 69 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 1: we got left? Nine games? Is it nine weeks? Something 70 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:17,520 Speaker 1: like that? 71 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 2: Ye? 72 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 1: Right, So as you head towards the end of the season, 73 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 1: what you want to do obviously get to the eight, 74 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:23,400 Speaker 1: gets to four and all that sort of thing. But 75 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 1: in the finals football, you want to be able to 76 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:29,079 Speaker 1: go into the field in full confidence that you at 77 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 1: least can beat any given side given it becomes a knockout. 78 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: Are you confident enough that that's possible yet or not? 79 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 2: I'm extremely confident in it because, like I said at 80 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 2: the start of the interview, our best football is literally 81 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 2: better than most peoples. I literally think that everyone looks 82 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 2: at our when we were on they think jees. Actually 83 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 2: I think they're probably better than those teams in the competition. 84 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 2: But you'll do it for eighty minutes, and that's what 85 00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 2: the good side too. So if we're piecing to you 86 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 2: other for eighty that told football and not like So 87 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 2: that's my job to get that help was to do that. 88 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 2: I'm more than confident we get there. But you know, 89 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 2: I don't want to do that. I don't think we've 90 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 2: even earned the right to talk about finals right now, 91 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 2: at this time last year we probably weren't everyone was 92 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:18,039 Speaker 2: getting encaders as this year we've got a good probably 93 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 2: go as a bit more before start thought about the 94 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 2: final talk to. 95 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:23,480 Speaker 1: Me about injuries. I mean, one of the highlights of 96 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: the season surely was the Panthers win with the side 97 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 1: most people have never heard of. So what does that say? 98 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:31,039 Speaker 1: Does that say young men lifting in the occasion of 99 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,919 Speaker 1: their life or some depth that we can all be 100 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:34,359 Speaker 1: proud of. 101 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 2: I We'll got some depth and definitely people lifted for 102 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 2: the occasion. We also turned around and did it against Reclase. 103 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 2: I think we had more injuries and more players out 104 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 2: of the week after. Yeah, no, we're definitely We've definitely 105 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 2: got some definitely got some young gloss coming through. I 106 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:55,119 Speaker 2: think our reserve grades currently second. We won the Harold 107 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:58,359 Speaker 2: basis this year. We've got our whole club for the 108 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 2: Fishers in good shape. And if these players are out 109 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,479 Speaker 2: of formal or they're injured like it were, I think 110 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 2: you can call on And we've had a bit of 111 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,839 Speaker 2: a X man hup attitude where we don't get overawed 112 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,559 Speaker 2: or worried that a certain players not playing. If anything, 113 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 2: we get more excited about the challenge and the person 114 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 2: here comes in eager a job to do, and he's 115 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 2: got to do it, and we're backing. 116 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 1: Which brings in I suppose that Tomari Martin conversation. Not 117 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 1: that we want to specifically dwell on that, but how 118 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 1: much do you think how much of the whole Sean 119 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 1: Johnson thing is based around because he's a lightning rod, 120 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:32,919 Speaker 1: because of who he is and all of that that 121 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 1: people have made up their mind about him, or to 122 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 1: Marie Martin, or any change or any decisions you may 123 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 1: or may not make before we even begin the conversation. 124 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:47,160 Speaker 2: I get asked that all the time. It Shawn and 125 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 2: to Mighty play a lot of good football to go 126 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 2: to the start of last season, won a lot of games. Yeah, 127 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 2: but also almost almost the daily employer of the Year 128 00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 2: is probably I thought he was the best player in 129 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,040 Speaker 2: the competition. Them to say that is, I mean, she 130 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 2: one of the best players in the world. To Mighty man, 131 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:09,920 Speaker 2: I feel is stilled up during times where people's one 132 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,839 Speaker 2: with than available, and as a result of that, I 133 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 2: think you've got to show what it can do. So 134 00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:19,040 Speaker 2: I think it's it's I think people probably reading too much, 135 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 2: and I think they're both played football and I think 136 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,279 Speaker 2: a lot of clubs I love to half backs and 137 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 2: half backs are pretty rare and in solo, complete face 138 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:29,720 Speaker 2: in both of them. I love the way play I 139 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 2: think I think everybody probably real frustration has just happened. 140 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 2: They came back together and played it and it didn't 141 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,719 Speaker 2: look great. But it didn't look great because we conceded 142 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,719 Speaker 2: sixty points. I had known to do with our attack, 143 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,479 Speaker 2: but for some reason everyone was looking at our attack, 144 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 2: no defense, which that was frustrating. 145 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 1: Exactly. Now, Listen, we talked about depth to Mama again, 146 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,279 Speaker 1: what about this injury? Told so, is it like a 147 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 1: crapshoot thing? Will you lose people if you wouldn't expect it? 148 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 1: I mean, is there anything that can be done, you know, physically, 149 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 1: physical training, weights, whatever, that you can protect yourself a 150 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:03,360 Speaker 1: bit more? Is that just life? 151 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 2: Do you reckon? I don't know. We try and we 152 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:08,599 Speaker 2: try and prevent injuries just as much as we try 153 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 2: and recover people from injuries. So like a lot of 154 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 2: strange work weights, the new exercises I've never ever heard 155 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 2: of in my life to do these things, and there's 156 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 2: a lot of science around it. But yeah, we also 157 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 2: you can't avoid the freak incidents of the broken bones. 158 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 2: Those things, they're pretty hard to control just because of 159 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 2: the force of the game. And looked Martha, they've had 160 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 2: a bad room with the fractures this year. But the 161 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 2: ankle injuries, I think they're so powerful and strong they've 162 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 2: been in them back over and their ankles are stuck 163 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 2: underneath them and the NRLs trying to outlaw that. But 164 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 2: we've been getting a lot of those injuries this season. 165 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 2: But the big one, the big one for me is 166 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 2: believes are very professional and you know, and we've had 167 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 2: a great staff that help us with that. But I 168 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:58,239 Speaker 2: think the game is getting harder. I think the whole 169 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 2: NRL struggling with injuries at the main and because they're 170 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 2: just playing at such a such a speed in the 171 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:08,000 Speaker 2: balls and play for so long, physically harder to me exactly. 172 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 1: And as much as we may obsess about wins and 173 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 1: losses and stuff from an individual team's point of view, 174 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 1: what's your observation of the quality of the NRL competition, 175 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 1: given that any side can beat any side clearly as 176 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: you've experienced. 177 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 2: Honestly, Glad, it's going to be one of the best 178 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 2: products in the world. I really do I mean New 179 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:29,239 Speaker 2: Zealanders are obsessed with the Warriors and really proud of them. 180 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 2: I think they're also obsessed with NURL. The moment the 181 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 2: product of watching other games of Pugby League, and like 182 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:38,319 Speaker 2: I says, the balls and play for sixteen minutes, and 183 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 2: balls and Play and other cats for thirty I know 184 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:43,959 Speaker 2: which game I want to watch. You know, I think 185 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,320 Speaker 2: the NURL done a great trouble with it, and you know, 186 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 2: we're really lucky that we are. The game is in 187 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 2: great shape. But I don't think you can take it 188 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:52,839 Speaker 2: for granted or mess it up or play around with 189 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 2: it too much. We're going to We're going to make 190 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 2: sure we keep the parduck what it is because it's 191 00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:58,200 Speaker 2: awesome for everyone. 192 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 1: Does that answer the question the debate thats been had 193 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 1: around rugby the balls and play for sixty minutes and 194 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 1: if it's in play and we're watching something that you know, 195 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 1: there's your problem with rugby. 196 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean I don't like to get too much 197 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 2: into it because I don't know enough about rugby, but 198 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,679 Speaker 2: I kind of get to the point where if they 199 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 2: change all the rules and rugby is in a do 200 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:22,840 Speaker 2: him that hight league? So yeah, basically the same game. 201 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 2: So I don't know how how they get the ball 202 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 2: and play more only. I mean there's a lot smarter people. 203 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 2: They know how to do that. 204 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 1: Aiden Fnua Blake, not just him specifically, but that scenario 205 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,440 Speaker 1: where he wants out. How do you handle that sort 206 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 1: of thing going forward? You're dealing with, say a young man, 207 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 1: you're offering him a long term contract, and you go, 208 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 1: we're the one for you. For what it a halfway 209 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 1: through the contract he wakes up one morning goes, you 210 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 1: know what I'm not. How do you structure or make 211 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,680 Speaker 1: a side where a contract may or may not mean anything. 212 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:56,080 Speaker 2: I think it's a case by case. I mean, Adam 213 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,079 Speaker 2: didn't wake up one morning, so I wanted to go. 214 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 2: He had a real family situation that he needed to 215 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 2: attend to, and you know, he needs to get himself 216 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 2: home next season, and we were really grateful him to 217 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 2: come to a compensation where we could make sure he 218 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:19,040 Speaker 2: stayed for another year. He hasn't had any stage, but 219 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 2: I think he loves the lawyers and he really find 220 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 2: it New zeal But in the case by case, if 221 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 2: the players just wants to leave for no reason and 222 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 2: he just seems to life can get paid more at 223 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 2: other club than I think. We've got to stand your 224 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 2: go around and say, you know, I've signed a contract, 225 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,360 Speaker 2: you're staying. I think like you're saying that with the Dragons, 226 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,719 Speaker 2: And then he's obviously very important, just wanted to leave 227 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 2: a few times and obviously probably said better opportunity, but 228 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 2: he's made him staying a really good footing. The Dragons 229 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 2: obviously have another good win last night. So I think 230 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 2: it's situational really, But to Adam's credit, he just didn't 231 00:10:57,800 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 2: wake up one day until I want to hunt. 232 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,200 Speaker 1: I wasn't suggesting you did. I'm just wondering if from 233 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 1: a structural point of view and making a side or 234 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:08,079 Speaker 1: putting a side together, whether the game is changing in 235 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:10,840 Speaker 1: this world whereby suddenly a contract is not a contract. 236 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 1: Let's say, but i'll see how I feel type vibe 237 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 1: and suddenly you don't know where you are. 238 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:20,599 Speaker 2: Well, the contract is still an absolute contract. So we 239 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:23,319 Speaker 2: could have made out and stay. We're just stilled the outground. 240 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 2: Light like myself as a coach, if I walked in 241 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 2: the moments that I want to leave, which I certainly don't, 242 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 2: David turnarounds and Buddy'll say, so the contract's to emplay. 243 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,680 Speaker 2: It's just for you, really, and I don't know if 244 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 2: I'm answering this right for you, but it's just whether 245 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:43,319 Speaker 2: you really think that player playing under vir wrest I'm 246 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 2: not happy, I'll not be your place is worth it 247 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 2: for your culture. And I think that's where everyone kind 248 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 2: of worked out that. Look, he's contracted in, but this 249 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:56,720 Speaker 2: is a business. We can get player X, Y and 250 00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:00,320 Speaker 2: Z to replace him and lets you go to player 251 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 2: definitely wants to see. So yeah, it's it is when 252 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 2: you're when you put your salary path together and your 253 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 2: squad and you're hoping they un and it's up to 254 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 2: us to pay culture with happy and I stay. So 255 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 2: it's not it's not the easiest thing when these things happen, 256 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,560 Speaker 2: but it's just something you've always got to be across 257 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 2: and on top of. 258 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:24,199 Speaker 1: And have they done that well for you? You're traveling happily. 259 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:30,079 Speaker 2: Yeah happy, Yeah, oh welcome. Well I'm probably a bit 260 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 2: frustrated at the time that we're not reaching our potential, 261 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 2: but I'm stoked in the cloud. I love it here. 262 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:38,080 Speaker 2: I love New Zealand. I love the players that I 263 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:41,840 Speaker 2: get the coach every day. So family happy, So yeah, 264 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 2: the Warrior. Is this that's for sure? I love it. 265 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 1: Good stuff, good to catch up, make go well, we'll 266 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:47,839 Speaker 1: catch up again before the end of the season.
