WEBVTT - "The Prince Of Penrose Returns" 0:00:08.360 --> 0:00:10.880 Okay there, and welcome back to the Mad Monday Podcast, 0:00:10.920 --> 0:00:13.080 as always, brought to you by four and twenty piles, 0:00:13.080 --> 0:00:16.320 a perfect at home snack for watching Rugby League Mania 0:00:16.360 --> 0:00:19.079 and Adam and with you for your Thursday episode of 0:00:19.160 --> 0:00:23.400 the Mad Monday Podcast. And I can smell burning because 0:00:23.520 --> 0:00:25.680 it's probably behind the curtain. It may not seem like it. 0:00:25.800 --> 0:00:28.160 We do prepare for this show and we have a 0:00:28.160 --> 0:00:30.080 dock that we fill out. But the way we run 0:00:30.120 --> 0:00:33.720 the dock is every week or every episode, we just 0:00:33.840 --> 0:00:35.360 add more to the top of the dock. So it 0:00:35.400 --> 0:00:39.239 is now about three hundred pages long. Long short of 0:00:39.240 --> 0:00:42.600 that is when I clicked print just before, I didn't 0:00:42.640 --> 0:00:46.040 specify what pages, and I've printed about nine hundred pages 0:00:46.280 --> 0:00:48.599 out of the work copy. It has burst into flames. 0:00:49.000 --> 0:00:50.400 It has lit my shirt on fire, and I'm not 0:00:50.440 --> 0:00:52.360 too upset about it because I'm wearing a black Cat shit. 0:00:52.400 --> 0:00:54.800 They just lost to the Windys. I say all that 0:00:54.920 --> 0:00:56.560 to say this, I do have the team listen in 0:00:56.600 --> 0:00:58.480 front of me and Adam. I feel like we need 0:00:58.520 --> 0:01:00.440 to start up the top of the Mad Monday Podcast 0:01:00.520 --> 0:01:03.280 on a Thursday with the team list biggest news of 0:01:03.280 --> 0:01:06.040 the week, worst, keep secret in New Zealand as well. 0:01:06.560 --> 0:01:09.839 Shawn Johnson's back. And the thing that's been said all 0:01:09.880 --> 0:01:12.639 week and for the last few weeks is since Demighty 0:01:12.680 --> 0:01:15.640 Martin's been going good, has been our selection headache for 0:01:15.680 --> 0:01:18.640 Andrew Webster. And I'm looking at that, like, how is 0:01:18.640 --> 0:01:20.959 it a headache that you've got another good player who's 0:01:20.959 --> 0:01:23.919 stepped up? And people were saying, well, did Shawn Johnson 0:01:23.959 --> 0:01:26.240 even come back in with Tomrty Mutton? Of course he does, 0:01:26.520 --> 0:01:28.320 so he's in a half back. This can only be 0:01:28.360 --> 0:01:30.640 a good thing for the Warriors, surely. Yeah. 0:01:30.680 --> 0:01:33.120 I don't see how anyone can think that is a 0:01:33.120 --> 0:01:37.440 bad thing. I saw today the odds of Shorten as well, 0:01:38.040 --> 0:01:40.760 you know, the huge hunches out of there that just 0:01:40.800 --> 0:01:43.320 hadn't been back in the team. They went from pretty 0:01:43.360 --> 0:01:45.959 far outside to be honest, to only been when I 0:01:45.959 --> 0:01:48.240 saw it about an hour ago. Is a dollar ninety 0:01:48.280 --> 0:01:50.480 to a dollar eighty, right, it's still in favor of 0:01:50.560 --> 0:01:51.960 the Storm, but that's close. 0:01:52.120 --> 0:01:53.360 It's almost even odds. 0:01:53.600 --> 0:01:56.000 And that's considering that we're ninth and they are first. 0:01:56.080 --> 0:01:59.440 And there is nothing wrong with having Esja back. If anything, 0:02:00.040 --> 0:02:02.480 it's just strength to strength and it's really nice to 0:02:02.520 --> 0:02:06.480 see after a few interesting weeks, pretty tough weeks that 0:02:06.600 --> 0:02:08.000 are just a few of the lads are getting back 0:02:08.000 --> 0:02:08.600 on the park game. 0:02:08.720 --> 0:02:10.920 Yeah, well one hundred percent. There's a lot of players 0:02:10.919 --> 0:02:12.839 back in the Kirk cape Wise has been back onto 0:02:12.840 --> 0:02:14.320 the bench as well. We'll get into the forward pack 0:02:14.360 --> 0:02:17.560 in a minute. But what happens is, you know, Sean 0:02:17.639 --> 0:02:19.800 Johnson was watching all of these games as well. He 0:02:19.840 --> 0:02:22.600 didn't just bugger off and not play and not watch anything. 0:02:22.720 --> 0:02:26.360 So he's looking at that gun, beauty Tomty let's go like, 0:02:26.639 --> 0:02:28.200 I'm going to need a bit because you I'm back 0:02:28.200 --> 0:02:30.680 from injury. But none of these guys are one hundred percent, 0:02:30.680 --> 0:02:33.920 particularly this period of the season. So he's gonna look 0:02:33.960 --> 0:02:36.240 at Tomighty and be like, sweet man, this is fifty 0:02:36.240 --> 0:02:39.280 percent in your team now, like let's go. Let's And 0:02:39.320 --> 0:02:41.320 it opens everything up a little bit more for us 0:02:41.400 --> 0:02:44.239 because the right side of our attack that everyone talked 0:02:44.280 --> 0:02:46.639 so much about last year sort of haven't hasn't quite 0:02:46.639 --> 0:02:50.160 been the same this year, and so if Tomighty Martin 0:02:50.200 --> 0:02:52.720 can still play that same role but over on the 0:02:52.800 --> 0:02:55.440 left side, just opens up both sides. I think it's 0:02:55.480 --> 0:02:57.960 been great for us jagging these last few ones that 0:02:58.000 --> 0:03:02.799 we potentially probably shouldn't have, particularly the two before the bye. 0:03:02.880 --> 0:03:05.960 I think the Cowboys we should have beaten, even though 0:03:06.000 --> 0:03:07.359 by the time he got to that game where we 0:03:07.880 --> 0:03:11.640 were beaten to a ball in terms of injuries. But 0:03:11.800 --> 0:03:14.320 I think the other interesting thing for me, so Rocco 0:03:14.400 --> 0:03:17.840 buries back from his hand arts is still a week away. 0:03:18.080 --> 0:03:22.160 But when he comes back, I find it quite hard. 0:03:22.400 --> 0:03:24.760 I know, we were just shitting on people saying that 0:03:24.800 --> 0:03:27.959 there's a selection headache. I'd find it hard to bench Pompy, 0:03:27.960 --> 0:03:32.040 wouldn't you. I he is kicking so well. He's the 0:03:32.080 --> 0:03:36.080 fourth highest point scorer since he started, since he started starting. 0:03:35.840 --> 0:03:38.480 Yeah, and to be honest, ever since he's come back. 0:03:38.520 --> 0:03:43.560 He had that massive hit Magic Ground, Yeah, absolutely buried 0:03:43.600 --> 0:03:47.320 the man. And then after that he honestly hasn't done 0:03:47.360 --> 0:03:49.160 much wrong. Like for a lot of people, you know, 0:03:49.280 --> 0:03:51.000 especially the start of the season, there's always been a 0:03:51.040 --> 0:03:53.480 bit of a worry. He hit some ups and downs, 0:03:53.480 --> 0:03:56.320 but he has I guess maybe at the same time, 0:03:56.360 --> 0:03:58.760 like recognized his time off, he's put in the work 0:03:58.840 --> 0:04:02.000 and he's come back. And even just that side, how 0:04:02.080 --> 0:04:04.720 next to Marcelo, they look so much better together and 0:04:04.720 --> 0:04:07.240 they've had a couple of pretty good weekends out, so 0:04:07.600 --> 0:04:09.320 it is it is getting quite hard. And at the 0:04:09.360 --> 0:04:12.720 same time, last week rocc o'berry must have known, hey, 0:04:13.040 --> 0:04:15.920 you know there's a bit going on here. Pompy's playing well, 0:04:16.080 --> 0:04:17.880 artist is on the way back, and last week he 0:04:17.920 --> 0:04:18.440 was amazing. 0:04:18.520 --> 0:04:21.160 So it's like it's it's. 0:04:20.960 --> 0:04:23.680 Something that you hope would happen in good teams, is 0:04:23.720 --> 0:04:27.039 that there's so much competition that everyone has to show 0:04:27.080 --> 0:04:29.799 up every single game and that is not a bad 0:04:29.839 --> 0:04:30.520 problem to have. 0:04:30.760 --> 0:04:31.720 No, it's not. 0:04:32.200 --> 0:04:35.800 Because I think he was even speaking earlier on the 0:04:35.800 --> 0:04:39.640 week hearing it was the Pantsman and that's talk about 0:04:39.720 --> 0:04:43.120 it was this could be one of the first times 0:04:43.560 --> 0:04:47.000 which watched Hurley was after thinking, is that maybe Artis 0:04:47.040 --> 0:04:48.719 comes off the bench first week, Like I know, it 0:04:48.760 --> 0:04:50.080 seems like an outlandis thing to. 0:04:50.000 --> 0:04:54.039 Say, and he is XM winner arts. 0:04:54.160 --> 0:04:57.040 But last week, for one of the first times at 0:04:57.040 --> 0:04:59.640 a very very long time, our back line and its 0:04:59.760 --> 0:05:03.200 entire already looked amazing, great, And I feel like there's 0:05:03.240 --> 0:05:05.640 things like that where things are just going wow, where 0:05:05.640 --> 0:05:08.760 it's really just not worth rocking the boat too much. 0:05:08.800 --> 0:05:10.480 You just kind of you just you need to leave 0:05:10.520 --> 0:05:12.120 it out there for a little bit and when it 0:05:12.160 --> 0:05:14.920 needs change and you change it. So it's it's a 0:05:15.120 --> 0:05:16.080 huge positive in that. 0:05:16.160 --> 0:05:19.560 Eh yeah? Is this one? Though? It does perplex me 0:05:19.640 --> 0:05:24.919 because I kind of am leaning towards leave Pompey in there. Particularly. 0:05:24.960 --> 0:05:27.560 I know Sean Johnson's latest injury was a pick, but 0:05:28.480 --> 0:05:32.440 was he goalkicking on the weekend? Sean? I can't well't 0:05:32.440 --> 0:05:34.280 recall someone will be screaming at their iPod right now, 0:05:34.279 --> 0:05:36.640 do you do You mean when he hurt himself or 0:05:37.200 --> 0:05:40.120 that week? Oh no, he's back this week. Yeah, I've 0:05:40.120 --> 0:05:42.880 just had a blackout for a second. No, yeah, before 0:05:42.960 --> 0:05:46.039 he came back. I actually think he was goalkicking. But 0:05:46.400 --> 0:05:49.440 I just think it's one less thing for Sean Johnson 0:05:49.440 --> 0:05:51.960 to be doing, you know, the more that we can 0:05:52.000 --> 0:05:54.640 take off for him, particularly because we've still got another 0:05:54.680 --> 0:05:57.320 ten weeks of this competition left before we get to playoffs. 0:05:57.440 --> 0:05:59.359 I did a bit of deep diving. It may not 0:05:59.440 --> 0:06:02.680 sound like a I did some research. Today we have 0:06:02.960 --> 0:06:05.560 the last round of the season. Looking way too far 0:06:05.560 --> 0:06:08.359 ahead of myself, here is a bye for us the 0:06:08.400 --> 0:06:12.400 twenty seventh round, which is that's exactly when you'd want it. 0:06:13.040 --> 0:06:15.200 I mean, if we can. I think, so top four 0:06:15.279 --> 0:06:17.520 is out for us, so we can't have buy and 0:06:17.560 --> 0:06:19.240 then two bites at the cherry. That would have been 0:06:19.240 --> 0:06:23.080 the dream scenario. But a bye just before playoffs would 0:06:23.080 --> 0:06:24.760 be excellent anyway. I say all that to say this, 0:06:24.880 --> 0:06:26.720 the more that we can take off Sewan Johnson's plate, 0:06:26.720 --> 0:06:29.280 the buy at the end of the season helps. I 0:06:29.320 --> 0:06:32.000 think to Mighty Martin's run of form helps, and I 0:06:32.040 --> 0:06:36.719 honestly think that our man Adam Pompey kicking that helps 0:06:36.800 --> 0:06:37.760 quite a lot as well. 0:06:37.920 --> 0:06:39.920 Yeah, there also is that other part as well, where 0:06:39.960 --> 0:06:42.039 I heard we be talking this week that is quite 0:06:42.080 --> 0:06:44.560 excited that Esjay is back because of how good this 0:06:44.680 --> 0:06:47.479 kicking game is. But I think we're underestimating how good 0:06:47.480 --> 0:06:51.039 to Mighty Martin's like in goal pressure, off lake kicks 0:06:51.040 --> 0:06:53.919 and stuff as well getting us repeat sets which we 0:06:54.040 --> 0:06:56.039 just didn't have at the start of the season. And 0:06:56.120 --> 0:06:58.560 I wonder if he's still in that old ah you know, 0:06:59.680 --> 0:07:02.040 you know J's back, you know, don't worry about the 0:07:02.040 --> 0:07:04.120 other fil kind of thing, and he's just kind of 0:07:04.240 --> 0:07:05.919 pushing him to the side, and then he's just going 0:07:06.000 --> 0:07:08.440 to come out this weekend and just go berserk again. 0:07:08.480 --> 0:07:10.800 You know, like sure, nah, mighty's mighty. 0:07:11.200 --> 0:07:12.760 I feel like he's just kind of hiding him a 0:07:12.760 --> 0:07:14.760 little bit, like what they do with the youngsters, and 0:07:14.800 --> 0:07:16.320 he's just going to come out and just show them 0:07:16.360 --> 0:07:18.760 what he's all about. But he has been sublime in 0:07:18.800 --> 0:07:21.320 his kicking game, and that was a huge part for 0:07:21.400 --> 0:07:22.960 those first few weeks when we had a bit of 0:07:22.960 --> 0:07:25.720 a tough time. We couldn't get repeat sets, we weren't 0:07:25.720 --> 0:07:27.760 contesting the ball, and then all of a sudden, a 0:07:27.800 --> 0:07:29.680 little bit of a shuffle in the team and all 0:07:29.720 --> 0:07:32.520 of that's coming off. You know, it's it couldn't be 0:07:32.520 --> 0:07:33.520 better right now, mate. 0:07:33.280 --> 0:07:35.720 To be honest, when we look at the Ford pack, 0:07:35.880 --> 0:07:38.680 Adam Vanoa, Blake Waite, Egan, Jackson Ford, might it's a 0:07:38.680 --> 0:07:40.800 new court in Mitch Barnette, tare who Harris is back. 0:07:41.120 --> 0:07:43.800 I think the most exciting part of this for me 0:07:43.920 --> 0:07:47.120 or not. I don't know if it's exciting Jackson Ford 0:07:47.560 --> 0:07:51.160 being named ten and Mitch Barnett out wide. This is 0:07:51.160 --> 0:07:54.360 interesting to me. It's basically a positional swap, just a 0:07:54.400 --> 0:07:56.800 straight up swap, and it's sort of a little bit 0:07:56.800 --> 0:07:58.960 of a head scratch. I don't mind it because Jackson 0:07:59.000 --> 0:08:03.840 Ford was immense on the weekend. Like he they are 0:08:04.320 --> 0:08:07.400 both very similar body types, both members of the Ruthless 0:08:07.440 --> 0:08:10.200 park Our Boys, So I don't mind the straight swap. 0:08:10.440 --> 0:08:11.840 It was just a bit of a head scratcher, and 0:08:11.880 --> 0:08:15.200 I couldn't really figure out a reason why. I guess 0:08:15.240 --> 0:08:17.360 the only thing that would come to my mind is 0:08:18.320 --> 0:08:25.160 maybe Mitch Barnett's job of punching holes in the defensive 0:08:25.160 --> 0:08:28.360 lines a bit easier for us when he's out on 0:08:28.400 --> 0:08:31.160 an edge rather than in the middle making a million tackles. 0:08:31.320 --> 0:08:34.800 I did wonder if maybe after Origin, despite the fact 0:08:34.840 --> 0:08:36.560 that they didn't get on, I was like, maybe is 0:08:36.559 --> 0:08:39.200 it too much workload for him doing all of that? 0:08:40.480 --> 0:08:43.240 It's working for us. Mtch Barnett scored to try he 0:08:43.280 --> 0:08:47.560 looks great. What do you think Maybe's doing with that one? Yeah? 0:08:47.640 --> 0:08:50.319 I think it would have surprised a lot of people 0:08:50.400 --> 0:08:55.120 last week. Yeah, especially just anyone really, And after watching 0:08:55.160 --> 0:08:56.480 the game, the only thing that I kind of got 0:08:56.480 --> 0:08:59.360 from it is that Jackson Forward just has a massive, 0:08:59.400 --> 0:09:03.240 massive motor and he was just he was doing a 0:09:03.280 --> 0:09:05.679 lot of work in the middle of the park and 0:09:06.640 --> 0:09:10.080 it actually kind of benefits us out wide because you've 0:09:10.080 --> 0:09:13.640 got Madata and Mitch that are both absolute weapons. Putting 0:09:13.720 --> 0:09:16.640 so much pressure on those outside edge last week near 0:09:16.720 --> 0:09:20.880 Corday was sublime. He was walking through players. You know, 0:09:21.080 --> 0:09:24.080 it looks quite easy. So when he's on he's electric. Yeah, 0:09:24.120 --> 0:09:26.760 and he is a huge injection back into the team 0:09:26.760 --> 0:09:28.000 and having him and then we can work out. So 0:09:28.040 --> 0:09:30.440 I think you're you're definitely on the right, you know, 0:09:30.480 --> 0:09:32.400 the right thing there. But I just have a feeling 0:09:32.440 --> 0:09:34.679 that it just makes more sense for them at the moment. 0:09:35.160 --> 0:09:38.040 Jackson Ford massive motor, is just willing to put his 0:09:38.080 --> 0:09:39.840 body on the line and it just kind of frees 0:09:39.920 --> 0:09:42.679 up a few of these more experienced guys just to 0:09:42.720 --> 0:09:44.600 do the work one on one on the outside and 0:09:44.640 --> 0:09:47.200 just spell it. And the only other thing I would 0:09:47.200 --> 0:09:50.920 say as well, So who was named at thirty last 0:09:50.960 --> 0:09:54.120 week did come off the bench and played huge When 0:09:54.160 --> 0:09:58.240 he came off, it was really noticeable knowing you know 0:09:58.280 --> 0:09:59.680 that he had a role to play and he just 0:09:59.720 --> 0:10:02.360 stormed Don and he just ran it straight as well. 0:10:02.440 --> 0:10:04.559 So I wouldn't be surprised if we see Walker back 0:10:04.559 --> 0:10:07.400 there as well, because Walker has been playing. He's rolled 0:10:07.440 --> 0:10:10.400 back the clock a little bit here and he looks Kurdwalker. 0:10:10.520 --> 0:10:13.680 He does, doesn't it. I think it's the versatility is 0:10:13.679 --> 0:10:15.520 why they like him coming off the bench, plus that 0:10:15.600 --> 0:10:19.680 little X factor on top of the combination with Jess 0:10:19.720 --> 0:10:21.480 Tavung as well. He was also named on the bench. 0:10:22.240 --> 0:10:25.120 But interestingly you mentioned toy Harris was sort of it 0:10:25.160 --> 0:10:27.240 was almost it's just in that sort of middle rotation 0:10:27.360 --> 0:10:29.199 that's starting to shape up a little bit for us. 0:10:30.040 --> 0:10:32.600 Kirk Capewell on the bench. How does Kirk Capewa get 0:10:32.600 --> 0:10:34.240 back out into the field. I know he's been injured, 0:10:34.280 --> 0:10:36.720 he's been out for quite a while, but like we 0:10:36.920 --> 0:10:40.480 are stacked. When we had the injuries, we had five 0:10:40.520 --> 0:10:42.520 second rowers out on the field. It's starting to get 0:10:42.559 --> 0:10:44.520 that way again. You look at the team. Jackson Ford's 0:10:44.520 --> 0:10:46.520 the second row, New Quarter is the second row, Mitch 0:10:46.559 --> 0:10:49.280 Barnett's the second row. Now we've got that's that's three 0:10:49.600 --> 0:10:52.240 on the starting field. Kirk capewar is on the bench. 0:10:52.400 --> 0:10:54.400 I mean Toyo Harris has played on an edge as well. 0:10:54.840 --> 0:10:58.319 It's like it's another one of these Ardeas Pomby situations 0:10:58.360 --> 0:11:01.719 where it's like you've got this guy who's excellent, well, 0:11:01.720 --> 0:11:03.120 I would even say beyond excellent. 0:11:03.120 --> 0:11:07.559 They're like Kirk Cape well, yeah, the top one percent, right. 0:11:07.480 --> 0:11:10.080 An origin player. The marquee signing of the off season 0:11:10.280 --> 0:11:13.680 arts excluded and now he can't get back on. But 0:11:13.800 --> 0:11:16.600 he to me feels like a starter. I feel like 0:11:16.720 --> 0:11:20.200 his value is he can play eighty minutes, never miss 0:11:20.200 --> 0:11:23.839 a tackle. He's reliable as whereas he's not quite that 0:11:23.920 --> 0:11:26.480 like impact player. When the Fords are starting to get tired, 0:11:26.600 --> 0:11:28.520 Kirk Cape war is not going to come on and 0:11:28.559 --> 0:11:31.040 put footwork on someone or burst through the line like that. 0:11:31.240 --> 0:11:33.000 Yeah, And in saying that as well, it was quite 0:11:33.080 --> 0:11:35.480 interesting because I think they came on quite close to 0:11:35.520 --> 0:11:38.520 each other. Her Mantle who So, you know, there's often 0:11:38.559 --> 0:11:41.800 been periods of the Warriors game where they made a 0:11:41.840 --> 0:11:44.360 switch off for moments and that was when they would 0:11:44.440 --> 0:11:46.280 kind of concede and would usually be they would have 0:11:46.320 --> 0:11:47.880 you know, there's been games already this year where they 0:11:47.880 --> 0:11:50.520 had an amazing fifteen to twenty minutes and they're just 0:11:50.600 --> 0:11:51.360 kind of tape it off. 0:11:51.480 --> 0:11:52.240 That's a good point. 0:11:52.360 --> 0:11:54.560 So when and watching in the weekend, they kind of 0:11:54.559 --> 0:11:56.560 came on with like fifteen and they kind of just 0:11:56.600 --> 0:11:58.679 like you know, locked it up and kind of just 0:11:58.920 --> 0:11:59.480 sorted it out. 0:11:59.480 --> 0:12:01.880 You've got two calm heads, so you don't have this 0:12:01.960 --> 0:12:04.320 problem where AFB goes off and we sort of look 0:12:04.400 --> 0:12:06.400 flat for the last ten minutes of the first half. Yeah, 0:12:06.400 --> 0:12:08.120 so I wonder if it's a bit of jiggery pokery 0:12:08.200 --> 0:12:14.280 there and there's two such wise are just unfrazzled kind 0:12:14.280 --> 0:12:16.080 of kind of heads out on the field as well. Yeah, 0:12:16.120 --> 0:12:17.079 And I could. 0:12:16.920 --> 0:12:19.720 Only imagine if you have Tahu and Kate Wak coming 0:12:19.760 --> 0:12:23.120 on off the bench and you're like, we're good. 0:12:23.480 --> 0:12:26.520 Yeah, we're good. Is anyone worried? No, no, no, we're good. Yeah, 0:12:26.720 --> 0:12:28.440 one hundred percent. If you look at the other side 0:12:28.480 --> 0:12:32.280 of the ledger so far, long has been electric since 0:12:32.320 --> 0:12:35.679 he's come into the into the Melbourne Storm system. Out 0:12:35.720 --> 0:12:37.560 there at the back for Little Pappy, he is going 0:12:37.640 --> 0:12:39.360 to be one that we need to shut down. Obviously 0:12:39.440 --> 0:12:42.680 Xavier Coats, but the last nail in our coffin last 0:12:42.720 --> 0:12:44.199 time we played him. That one's going to be a 0:12:44.240 --> 0:12:47.320 big match up as well. Wish Heart's been looking great lately, 0:12:47.480 --> 0:12:50.080 but Jerome Hughes I think is going to be the 0:12:50.120 --> 0:12:53.640 deciding factor in this Melbourne Storm team. Obviously, months they're 0:12:53.640 --> 0:12:56.160 out with the long term injury. Paul has grown in 0:12:56.200 --> 0:12:59.280 the shower and will and then allegedly redid it again. 0:12:59.360 --> 0:13:01.000 I thought there was a bit carry on there, but anyway, 0:13:01.000 --> 0:13:04.600 he's out for a while. Ali Cutto is the other 0:13:04.640 --> 0:13:08.720 one who looks absolutely unstoppable for that team Former Warrior. 0:13:09.520 --> 0:13:12.400 That's the it's the X with a glow up problem. 0:13:12.480 --> 0:13:15.079 Not that we need another second rower and they His 0:13:15.240 --> 0:13:17.760 combination with Jerome Hughes has been excellent. That's why they're 0:13:17.800 --> 0:13:19.760 both in my Supercoach team. Spoiler a lit for the 0:13:19.800 --> 0:13:22.280 second part of this podcast. But if we can shut 0:13:22.320 --> 0:13:27.160 down Jerome Hughes and and and keep a few eyes 0:13:27.200 --> 0:13:29.880 and a few bodies on Ali Cutto, I think that 0:13:29.960 --> 0:13:32.800 we're a good chance in this game. They're not, They're 0:13:32.840 --> 0:13:34.720 not at full strength to meltin storm spot the fact 0:13:34.720 --> 0:13:36.600 that they are at the top of the table. But 0:13:36.720 --> 0:13:38.880 I think that this could break the hood who beating 0:13:38.920 --> 0:13:41.480 them in nine years. I think I think Arts and 0:13:41.520 --> 0:13:43.880 Shawn Johnson with only two players in that team. 0:13:44.000 --> 0:13:46.160 Yeah, and then you have the heartbreak of the start 0:13:46.160 --> 0:13:47.920 of the season, which was a real turning point. 0:13:48.040 --> 0:13:48.240 Yeah. 0:13:48.840 --> 0:13:51.280 But I guess at the same time, even the way 0:13:51.280 --> 0:13:53.360 that the game finished out and we didn't quite get there. 0:13:54.360 --> 0:13:55.800 You know that surely that gives. 0:13:55.559 --> 0:13:57.559 A pretty big, huge amount of money in the in 0:13:57.600 --> 0:13:59.640 the changing rooms, like you've gone toe to toe with. 0:13:59.880 --> 0:14:01.480 The best of the best. We're almost there. 0:14:01.559 --> 0:14:03.559 Yeah. But the crazy thing is is you see how 0:14:03.559 --> 0:14:06.400 many people are out they still keep winning, and you've 0:14:06.400 --> 0:14:09.160 got people like Grant Anderson, who seems like the most 0:14:09.160 --> 0:14:12.480 generic name, like they've just gone on to an extended 0:14:12.520 --> 0:14:13.040 bench on. 0:14:13.080 --> 0:14:15.400 Like it's like they didn't get the rights for his 0:14:15.440 --> 0:14:18.200 actual name on the PlayStation game, you know what I mean, 0:14:18.240 --> 0:14:21.240 He's got away call the name. Yeah, but I like Anderson. 0:14:21.320 --> 0:14:23.240 Yeah, but even then, they are just so deep it 0:14:23.320 --> 0:14:24.160 doesn't matter a. 0:14:24.320 --> 0:14:27.120 It sounds like it might be the Australian Minister for Transport, 0:14:27.280 --> 0:14:29.520 Grand Anderson, the right honorable Grand Anderson. 0:14:29.880 --> 0:14:32.720 It makes sense. But yeah, it's it's amazing how how 0:14:32.800 --> 0:14:35.240 deep the site is. Regardless and as more credits to 0:14:35.240 --> 0:14:38.440 the I'm with you as well. Akatur has been just 0:14:38.680 --> 0:14:42.240 ridiculous this year as well. And at the same time, 0:14:42.280 --> 0:14:45.400 we just have to be careful with Harry Grant. He 0:14:45.400 --> 0:14:47.680 he always shows up for big games as well, and 0:14:47.720 --> 0:14:50.280 I feel like it was super coach wise. He's definitely 0:14:50.320 --> 0:14:53.800 rounded into form as wow. So there's still has threats 0:14:53.800 --> 0:14:56.320 to be worried about. But at the same time, I 0:14:56.320 --> 0:14:59.080 think it's really nice to see the Warriors. They they 0:14:59.120 --> 0:15:00.320 look pretty good. You know. 0:15:00.640 --> 0:15:04.680 Yeah, well one we shouldn't have but but then also 0:15:04.840 --> 0:15:06.600 earlier on in the season lost a couple that we 0:15:07.200 --> 0:15:09.920 that we probably should have won, this being one of them. 0:15:09.960 --> 0:15:11.600 So if we can get this one back, that would 0:15:11.680 --> 0:15:13.560 be huge. We're going to take a quick break and 0:15:13.600 --> 0:15:15.960 come back with Supercoach. Just before we do, though, our 0:15:16.000 --> 0:15:18.000 great mates at four and twenty and bringing you the 0:15:18.000 --> 0:15:19.880 four and twenty price pack. You should know by now. 0:15:19.880 --> 0:15:22.280 Each month we're giving away four tickets to the next 0:15:22.280 --> 0:15:25.240 home game and four and twenty five ouchers.

Don't worry if you're listening to this 0:15:37.760 --> 0:15:39.480 on the Friday and you don't think you'll be able 0:15:39.520 --> 0:15:41.000 to get to the Saturday game, that there will be 0:15:41.040 --> 0:15:43.080 tickets to the next home game. So just text youm 0:15:43.360 --> 0:15:45.400 you'll get a link back. Enter all the details and 0:15:45.440 --> 0:15:46.880 you'll be in to win. We're going to take a 0:15:46.960 --> 0:15:49.320 quick break when we come back by his hold sales. 0:15:49.360 --> 0:15:55.600 Captain Smoky's all that supercoach in just a second. Okay, 0:15:55.600 --> 0:15:58.040 so supercoach. This week we sort of I wouldn't say 0:15:58.040 --> 0:15:59.960 we're out of the woods, but the last couple of 0:16:00.040 --> 0:16:03.280 weeks have been an absolute shit show for most people's 0:16:03.360 --> 0:16:07.040 teams in the Mad Monday Mounts League. I know it 0:16:07.040 --> 0:16:09.840 was an absolute disaster because I've got green arrows, so 0:16:09.960 --> 0:16:13.280 my team's going up in that league. We also have 0:16:13.520 --> 0:16:15.680 like there's a head to head portion of that. Who 0:16:15.720 --> 0:16:17.640 I think I had you this week? Didn't I am? 0:16:18.080 --> 0:16:21.160 And you got to witness the ferocity that is the 0:16:21.240 --> 0:16:24.160 ruthless park Our boys in full flight. I am now 0:16:24.840 --> 0:16:27.160 into the top one hundred in our league. I've timed 0:16:27.200 --> 0:16:31.800 it perfectly. I went rocketing up this week into eighty 0:16:31.880 --> 0:16:35.160 sixth so and I feel pretty powerful. I'll get into 0:16:35.200 --> 0:16:37.320 my trades very surely. But the thing that launched me 0:16:37.360 --> 0:16:42.240 into that was Latrell Mitchell. I picked him up. He 0:16:42.320 --> 0:16:46.560 rewarded me with one hundred and fifty points. I wish, wish, 0:16:46.680 --> 0:16:49.920 wish I had the balls to captain him. I did 0:16:49.920 --> 0:16:52.920 not but if you haven't got Latrell Mitchell, do you 0:16:53.000 --> 0:16:54.640 have Treill? No? 0:16:54.800 --> 0:16:56.680 And I would you get him in this week? Do 0:16:56.720 --> 0:17:00.200 you think I'm about ninety five percent right now? After 0:17:00.280 --> 0:17:02.400 watching that, I went the other way and I got 0:17:02.440 --> 0:17:05.439 his teammates. I got Cody Walker last week, and I 0:17:05.560 --> 0:17:08.320 was pretty stoked at a hundred points as well. Yeah, 0:17:08.840 --> 0:17:12.040 obviously there's that concern about him stepping into origin and 0:17:12.080 --> 0:17:14.879 that as well, But honestly, the way he is playing 0:17:14.920 --> 0:17:17.600 at the moment, I don't give a shit. I think 0:17:17.640 --> 0:17:19.080 I'm just going to jump on for the rest of 0:17:19.080 --> 0:17:21.200 the season regardless, and I'm just gonna, you know, watch 0:17:21.240 --> 0:17:24.440 this into the sunset. So I don't but I will. 0:17:24.600 --> 0:17:28.359 Yeah, I think it's not quite a no brainer to me, 0:17:28.480 --> 0:17:31.880 But you know, there's no there's so many superstuff fullbacks 0:17:31.880 --> 0:17:33.960 who are out at the moment. You know, if you 0:17:34.040 --> 0:17:36.080 wanted to go drink water, I think he's one of 0:17:36.080 --> 0:17:41.199 the top traded out players at the moment, Teddy, but 0:17:41.280 --> 0:17:44.639 then you're running the risk of origin one hundred percent. 0:17:44.760 --> 0:17:47.360 Dylan Edwards, what's the deal with his injury? That kind 0:17:47.359 --> 0:17:50.280 of stuff. If you I mean, just just before last week, 0:17:50.320 --> 0:17:53.520 I had Teddy and Dylan Edwards, and I thought, oh great, 0:17:53.520 --> 0:17:56.639 I'm covered either way. Well, worst case scenario, Edwards injured, 0:17:56.680 --> 0:17:58.959 Teddy called up. I was like, oh so I'm super 0:17:58.960 --> 0:18:01.560 fuck yeah great as I think trell met, I don't. 0:18:01.600 --> 0:18:05.560 I think it's I think it's a safe option, and like, yeah, 0:18:05.680 --> 0:18:07.560 one fifty could be a flash in the pan. I 0:18:07.600 --> 0:18:09.080 don't know. I feel like he's going to come out 0:18:09.119 --> 0:18:09.640 and do it again. 0:18:10.160 --> 0:18:12.520 I don't One to fifty might be, but I still 0:18:12.560 --> 0:18:15.720 think weekly, yeah, week in, week out. He's got seventy yeah, 0:18:15.760 --> 0:18:17.920
