00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 2: part of the rugby league season, isn't it. Yeah, well,

9
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 2: for a lot of teams, but you know us obviously

10
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:36,839
Speaker 2: not for the Warriors taste anything except for a beautiful,

11
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:38,760
Speaker 2: beautiful four and twenty pie, which, by the way, if

12
00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:41,720
Speaker 2: you're going down to Shawn Johnson's last game at Shawn

13
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:45,199
Speaker 2: Johnson Stadium, I'm going to be down there with a

14
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:47,200
Speaker 2: bunch of four and twenty traveler pies to dish out

15
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:48,920
Speaker 2: really at the front gate, Yeah, the front gate. So

16
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 2: the legends at four and twenty have given me fifty

17
00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:53,920
Speaker 2: at the long rectangle pies. Why you love those? I

18
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 2: do love those.

19
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:57,080
Speaker 1: So the first fifty people to come down and find

20
00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 1: me there, we'll get.

21
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:01,960
Speaker 2: One of the what do you reckon the chances of

22
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,480
Speaker 2: them being genuine listeners to the podcast and just being

23
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:09,080
Speaker 2: people walking in the gate. Look the chances I reckon

24
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 2: one out of the fifty, you'll be a listener. Yeah,

25
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:11,039
Speaker 2: I reckon.

26
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,039
Speaker 1: And I'm not going to hang around either because i

27
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:15,440
Speaker 1: also need to commentate the game. So the first fifty

28
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:17,120
Speaker 1: people that see me are going to get one of

29
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:19,280
Speaker 1: the pies. I couldn't give a shit with your listeners,

30
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 1: podcast or not. But what I'm saying is if you

31
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:23,679
Speaker 1: are listening to this podcast right now, you've got the

32
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:24,200
Speaker 1: heads up.

33
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 2: One thing I'm very disappointed about is we're down in

34
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 2: Wellington tomorrow Friday for this beer festival. Yeah, and so

35
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 2: like we could have I could have been calling the

36
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:38,720
Speaker 2: game with you from Mount smartst away from Shawn Johnson Stadium,

37
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 2: his last ever game. Yeah, the vibe there is going

38
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,399
Speaker 2: to be excellent. It's it's kind of like, out of

39
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 2: all the games I could have missed, this is the

40
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:47,040
Speaker 2: one I shouldn't have missed. Well, it's not too late

41
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 2: for you to have been the I don't know what

42
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 2: are you doing in Wellington? Well, it's sad this thing

43
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 2: that pays my salary that I have to go down

44
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,360
Speaker 2: there and do a live show. Pretty much, to be honest,

45
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 2: get drunk responsibly. Of course you could be doing that

46
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 2: at Shawn Johnson's stated that's to be fair, I could

47
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 2: be surrounded by four and twenties and export ultras.

48
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've got a few of them four and twenties

49
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 1: to dish out. Yeah, but yeah, so you won't be there.

50
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 1: I've called in Tony Lyle, who was like, he said,

51
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 1: it couldn't have happened at a bit of time for

52
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:14,119
Speaker 1: him because he was scrounging around to try and find

53
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 1: tickets sold out. Says like, how how do I get

54
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:19,360
Speaker 1: into Sewan Johnson's last game? And then I texted him

55
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 1: and I was just like, can you come and commentate

56
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 1: the game with me?

57
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 2: He's like, there is a god. That's incredible. Yeah, I

58
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 2: mean the Rugby League God has just smiled on Tony Lyle. Well,

59
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 2: they smile on the Warriors and I because I've been

60
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:32,560
Speaker 2: doing some thinking about this game. I've been doing a

61
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:34,960
Speaker 2: lot of thinking. And on the one hand, you've got

62
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,560
Speaker 2: an incredibly emotional affair. You know, you've got one of

63
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:42,079
Speaker 2: the greatest ever Warriors' final, last final game, potentially final

64
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:45,720
Speaker 2: game ever, because he's been pulling up rough after every game.

65
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 2: Who knows if he's going to play next week against

66
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 2: the Sharks. Yeah, and then of course we have the

67
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 2: buye The Warriors traditionally have not been getting up for

68
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,080
Speaker 2: must win games. No. We were discussing this on our

69
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:59,080
Speaker 2: show yesterday. I believe it was you know, how are

70
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,360
Speaker 2: the Warriors going to get up for Sean Johnson's last

71
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 2: game when they couldn't even get up against the bottom

72
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 2: of the table Eels and to keep this season alive,

73
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. So it's like we need

74
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 2: to learn to really actually step things up a level

75
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 2: and play like it is Seawan Johnson's last game. Yeah,

76
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 2: you're right.

77
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 1: We don't often stand up for like milestone games, you know,

78
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 1: when someone racks up one fifty games for the club.

79
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,840
Speaker 2: Or the last milestone game we got up for was

80
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 2: Jared Crocus three hundred in Canberra and we really got.

81
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 1: Up for that one a year ago. Oh we did

82
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 1: though we smacked them. So maybe we need to figure

83
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 1: out who's having a milestone game for the Bulldogs Yeah

84
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:34,640
Speaker 1: tomorrow night, and figure out how we're going to smack them.

85
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 2: Because it's just And the other thing too, You've got

86
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 2: to keep in mind is when I look at the

87
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 2: so the positive for the Warriors, and this could come

88
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 2: through in our hunch later on big Ford pack. The

89
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,960
Speaker 2: Bulldogs don't have Max King, you know, so their Ford

90
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 2: pack consists of all their props are Sam Hughes and

91
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 2: Josh Current. Yeah, don't big fowlers at all. No, Sam Hughes.

92
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 2: I don't think most people would have known before this season. Well,

93
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:58,720
Speaker 2: absolutely so. And then the guys have got coming off

94
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 2: the bench, Bailey Hayward, hurt Us More and Harry Hayes

95
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 2: and Jamn Salmon. We got a dog absolutely so their

96
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 2: Ford pack is tiny. So it makes you think adamfanoel Blake,

97
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:12,680
Speaker 2: even a Mitch Barnett through the middle mud up to

98
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 2: new quarter. These type of guys Jas Devanga should be

99
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 2: able to punch through and score tries in the center, however,

100
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 2: or at least easy meters. Yeah, exactly. However, when they

101
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,200
Speaker 2: played who was it that they played with the Broncos

102
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,040
Speaker 2: who have a big Ford pack pain Hasskrrigan, they did

103
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:29,839
Speaker 2: that thing where they just threw it around out to

104
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,240
Speaker 2: the edges and that's how they smoked them. Yeah. And

105
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,400
Speaker 2: also they've recently officially become the top rated defense in

106
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:38,360
Speaker 2: the NRAL. Yeah, they allow the fewest tries. Yes, game,

107
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 2: So I don't I just don't know. No, I know

108
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 2: where the Bulldogs.

109
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:44,840
Speaker 1: I've been saying for the last few weeks that they

110
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 1: are my second team, like once we're out of there

111
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 1: finals and maybe this is the passing of the torch

112
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:50,719
Speaker 1: over to the Bulldogs.

113
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:52,159
Speaker 2: But you're right, they have had.

114
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,080
Speaker 1: A rear vein of form at the moment, like they

115
00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:58,159
Speaker 1: are absolutely flying, but also on defense they're stingy. I

116
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 1: think if I was gonna try and silver for our team,

117
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 1: it's what you said before. It's our forward pack is

118
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:07,599
Speaker 1: more or less healthy. Yes, the exception to who Harris

119
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 1: would be the only person who, if fit, would make

120
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:13,120
Speaker 1: that starting run on side. In the forward pack.

121
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,720
Speaker 2: We've got Wade egganback. Backline's looking as healthy as it's

122
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:16,480
Speaker 2: been in a long time.

123
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 1: Sean Johnson and Luke Metcalfe is who we thought were

124
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 1: going to be our half sparing for most of the season.

125
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 1: You know, we got Montoya back on his wing. We've

126
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 1: got dw z back on his wing. This team almost looks.

127
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:29,919
Speaker 1: I love that we've got a full strength team without

128
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 1: tour who.

129
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:33,560
Speaker 2: This team almost looks. It looks as good as it

130
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,720
Speaker 2: has looked this season if you had Dylan Walker where

131
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 2: Dimitric cifer Cola is on the interchange and till who

132
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 2: Harris said, this is the team we had at the

133
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:44,159
Speaker 2: start of the season, and we thought we were coming

134
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,159
Speaker 2: into the season with. Yeah, maybe with an extra little

135
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,600
Speaker 2: buntier four who's been dropped of recent weeks. But this

136
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 2: is like, if we can't beat them, and we did.

137
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,359
Speaker 2: We beat them last time we met at we played

138
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 2: in New Zealand too, didn't we It was a close game,

139
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 2: but we did manage to beat them, and it was

140
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 2: using our big boys up the middle. So I don't know, man,

141
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 2: I can't pick this game at all. This one.

142
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:07,719
Speaker 1: This game actually breaks my heart. A lot of people

143
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:11,719
Speaker 1: have been asking me about it. I just I want

144
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 1: to think that we're going to get up for this

145
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 1: but and maybe it's better dog syndrome, but I just

146
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 1: feel like I can see it's getting choked out in

147
00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 1: the first twenty minutes and then you know it doesn't

148
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,040
Speaker 1: really well, No, we'll come to.

149
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:24,840
Speaker 2: Life with ten minutes to go when the game's way

150
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 2: out of reach. Yeah against the Heels, Yeah, cut the

151
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,799
Speaker 2: deficit to fourteen. What I don't want is a situation

152
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,440
Speaker 2: I'm very familiar with with the Warriors, where you just

153
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 2: feel like I just don't want to sit there feeling

154
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 2: bad for Sean because it's his last game at home

155
00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:38,360
Speaker 2: and this is what we provided, you know what I mean.

156
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,240
Speaker 2: The fans are going to be massively getting around the

157
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:43,680
Speaker 2: scene no matter the result, which is great, so they're

158
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 2: going to get in behind. We can be getting pumped

159
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,360
Speaker 2: eighty to nil and the stadium will still be full

160
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:50,120
Speaker 2: at the end of the game. Yeah, because we want

161
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:51,840
Speaker 2: to appaud Shawn Johnson and what he's done for the club.

162
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:53,480
Speaker 2: But god, I hope the players can step up.

163
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 1: The atmosphere is going to be sick, you know when

164
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:57,680
Speaker 1: he runs out onto the field when they announce him,

165
00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,239
Speaker 1: because you know how they go through and they announce

166
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:01,479
Speaker 1: each player, that's where I am by player. When they

167
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 1: get around to Sewan John's, the place is going to

168
00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:05,280
Speaker 1: go nuts. I'm a little confused as to what we're

169
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,880
Speaker 1: expected to do as fans. I saw some people trying

170
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,560
Speaker 1: to say, oh, at the seventh minute, everyone's going to

171
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:12,920
Speaker 1: do a standing ovation. Some people are trying to say

172
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 1: the seventy seventh minute until the end, Wow, do we

173
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 1: do a three minute standing ovation, three minute standing ovation,

174
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,120
Speaker 1: all that there's a penalty, someone challenges it, we lose

175
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,520
Speaker 1: the game, lose the game massively, and the fans are

176
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:25,200
Speaker 1: just up on their feet.

177
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 2: I don't know. I'm a little confused as to what's

178
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 2: expected of me while I'm out there. I think renaming

179
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 2: the stadium to Sean Johnson Stadium is a good one.

180
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 2: Are there any like Seawn Johnson's final game merch available? Oh,

181
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 2: that'll be the go I guess that's something that you

182
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:40,880
Speaker 2: could buy and would actually be a nice thing to

183
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 2: have you.

184
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:42,800
Speaker 1: Well, I know because I always and I was saying

185
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 1: this on the Monday Show and I even said this.

186
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 1: I was talking to Jiremy Wells earlier this week, Regular Monday,

187
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 1: not Mad Monday, I know, the Mad Monday. Oh, the

188
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 1: Mad Monday Monday Show. I was just saying, like, it

189
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 1: just seems like lip servers renaming the stadium, Like you

190
00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:00,200
Speaker 1: actually haven't renamed the stadium. What's actually changed? Because a

191
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 1: sign out the front won't say it. Maybe if you've

192
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 1: got printed tickets, but who does that anymore? So?

193
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 2: What true? What have they actually? Like a traditional stub

194
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 2: of a ticket that's saw Johnson Stadium will be pretty cool.

195
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 2: That would be cool.

196
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think if you're Sewan Johnson, you've got

197
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 1: to go and get one of those. But I don't

198
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 1: know what's what they've actually done it When they put that,

199
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 1: it's just a massive pr move and then.

200
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,480
Speaker 2: I was like, oh, this is awesome. Itah what else

201
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,000
Speaker 2: can they do though? Yeah, I don't know, a limited

202
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 2: run of jerseys. Yeah, like I don't know if he

203
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:33,680
Speaker 2: could have his face on an NRL jersey, but like,

204
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:37,000
Speaker 2: you know, just some like cool retro design T shirt

205
00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:37,840
Speaker 2: with Sean Johnson.

206
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 1: I'm sure they've got some plans for the game. You

207
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:43,199
Speaker 1: know when a player wracks up there three hundredth game

208
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 1: and they put the extra zero on the two midle

209
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:48,040
Speaker 1: line something like that, you know. Yeah, I think I'm

210
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:49,680
Speaker 1: sure they've got something up this leave and I'm pretty

211
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:51,200
Speaker 1: excited to see it when we do get out there,

212
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:54,320
Speaker 1: I'll tell you who'd be pretty disappointed, though, Jess Devunger

213
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 1: can't get a stand named after him or well, I.

214
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,560
Speaker 2: Was about to say, I'm excited for Jess Sevanger Stadium

215
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:00,400
Speaker 2: as well, but this is our final home game. That

216
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:02,120
Speaker 2: is such a shame, isn't it. And the guy that

217
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:03,840
Speaker 2: we've brought through Aaron Clark.

218
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 1: Oh, yes, that's right, big news but signing news yesterday

219
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:08,080
Speaker 1: that we've signed Aaron Clark.

220
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:10,960
Speaker 2: He comes off the he's and you mentioned it in

221
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:13,439
Speaker 2: the group chat. He is literally a clone of Jazz

222
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 2: Tavanga because he comes off the bench. He can play

223
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 2: in the front row, but he's also a hooker. Yep.

224
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:21,440
Speaker 2: He's the son of Timer Putter Clark Silver Ferns, so

225
00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:24,080
Speaker 2: you know he's got the pedigree there. But he also

226
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:28,079
Speaker 2: has a huge attitude and I can see him giving

227
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,720
Speaker 2: away penal worriedors, but I can also see him punching

228
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 2: up great meters and being huge impact off the bench.

229
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 1: I was saying, I said in the group chat that

230
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 1: he won't have the doesn't have quite the game breaking

231
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:41,680
Speaker 1: not the jestific I had a massive game breaking ability,

232
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:43,560
Speaker 1: but he doesn't quite have that part of it. Where again,

233
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 1: gee the boys up. But he also doesn't have the

234
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,440
Speaker 1: brain explosion. He's right in the middle of the Jazz

235
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:50,760
Speaker 1: Tevanger Bell curve, so he kind of and he's just

236
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 1: another one of those players who could play just about anywhere.

237
00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 1: I think he played for US like five years ago

238
00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 1: and then he went over the Gold Coast, Yeah, where

239
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:01,040
Speaker 1: he became. And I've always described Aaron Clark as the

240
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 1: final boss of Gold Coast scaffolders. Once you've beaten all

241
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 1: the other Gold Coast scaffolders, you're then gonna fight Aaron Clark.

242
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 1: He's like remember when they made the GC. I remember

243
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:12,960
Speaker 1: the g I thought of, Yeah.

244
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 2: Was he on it? If he wasn't, maybe that's why

245
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:17,520
Speaker 2: it stopped. But yeah, I could see him over there

246
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:21,679
Speaker 2: chatting up all the aunties. O hard neff, ohight God.

247
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:24,920
Speaker 2: So he'll be back. His mum's just signed to coach

248
00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,240
Speaker 2: the Stars and the Ams in Premiership. Hey, how cool

249
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:29,079
Speaker 2: is that? So they're both gonna be operating out of

250
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 2: South Auckland. Yeah, cut down, Billical, call bro, what are

251
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 2: you doing? I'm his boy? So that's his face. So

252
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 2: that's how first major signing. And I didn't get super

253
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 2: excited about it, but I guess it's cool and it

254
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 2: might be one of those situations where he comes here

255
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,240
Speaker 2: and has one of his best ever seasons because we

256
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 2: might put him in a starting role.

257
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:46,199
Speaker 1: I think he'll be beloved. Well, I mean the way

258
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 1: that our team has been going this year, you know,

259
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:50,960
Speaker 1: Dylan Walker he's basically another Dylan Walker.

260
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:54,319
Speaker 2: What's he's got more money? I think? Oh yeah, like

261
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,400
Speaker 2: incoming manner between herm and James Fisher Harris is pretty good. Yes,

262
00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 2: it was just like ordered a big shipment of it.

263
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:03,800
Speaker 2: I'll sell money changes and that's coming over from you.

264
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 2: And the headquarters of that isn't at the Gold Coast

265
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:07,079
Speaker 2: for some reason. They've got to ship it over.

266
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's mighty Martin beck In a half pack next year.

267
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:14,400
Speaker 2: We're getting a little bit too a here, Cleary Nathan Jet.

268
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:17,040
Speaker 2: We're just going to give them the keys, man, dude,

269
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:20,800
Speaker 2: that Luke Galvin. Just give him lock Lochland Galvin, Locky Galvin. Yeah,

270
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:22,720
Speaker 2: just give him the keys. What's the you know, Blaze

271
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:24,840
Speaker 2: to Lungy give him the keys. I don't think Blaze

272
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 2: to Lungy's got the keys. He doesn't even if he

273
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:29,719
Speaker 2: does that sickond from the table, hasn't he signed? Yeah?

274
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 2: I know, but you know what I mean though, these players,

275
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:34,520
Speaker 2: it's not Lachland Galvin's fault that the Tiger's the bottom

276
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 2: of the table. No, the rest of the team's fault,

277
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,840
Speaker 2: because he has played bloody well he has, so I

278
00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 2: reckon we just do it because to Mighty Martin, who

279
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 2: is the man is? I don't think he's like he's great.

280
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,319
Speaker 2: He's not great, He's good. Yeah, he's not what we

281
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:50,880
Speaker 2: need if we're going to make do some damage in

282
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:53,959
Speaker 2: this competition. What have you seen from Jick Cleary to

283
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 2: indicate that he is aside from his last note, Well,

284
00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:58,719
Speaker 2: that's the only thing I'm saying. I couldn't even put

285
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:01,920
Speaker 2: him put him out of a lineup. I don't even

286
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 2: know what he looks like.

287
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 1: In fact, if you showed me a framed photo of

288
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 1: the Clary family, I couldn't point him out.

289
00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, well all I know is his name is Cleary

290
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:11,360
Speaker 2: and his first name is jet yeh Man. Did Nathan

291
00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:14,240
Speaker 2: miss out there? Nathan? Yeah? And then I've been had

292
00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:16,560
Speaker 2: a bit of fun with the second one. But anyway, Yeah,

293
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 2: this week's score prediction? How do you think this is

294
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:22,120
Speaker 2: going to go tomorrow night? I don't want an exact

295
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:25,600
Speaker 2: but like, let me just look at the weather here. Yeah, oh,

296
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:28,640
Speaker 2: it's just cloudy, so we won't lose. Wow, Wow, that's

297
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 2: not fame. We've lost a lot of games. Yeah, fourteen

298
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:36,760
Speaker 2: rain though, but with one and twelve and son, so

299
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:39,079
Speaker 2: it's not raining, which I think is a good thing.

300
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:43,679
Speaker 2: I can see. I think the Bulldog is going to

301
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:47,200
Speaker 2: win that traveling. They're coming to cold airs Auckland in

302
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,560
Speaker 2: the middle of the winter. I've still got everything to

303
00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 2: play for. They want to be higher and they want

304
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 2: to reach the top four. I'm just bringing the latter

305
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 2: up now. They are fifth and they are on thirty

306
00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,760
Speaker 2: two points. So yeah, with point stuff that would if

307
00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:02,200
Speaker 2: they spank us tomorrow, they'll be in the top four. Well,

308
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:03,880
Speaker 2: that's the thing. So the top four is very much

309
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 2: within reach, and that is something that teams genuinely want

310
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 2: to aim for, so they have better matchups and the

311
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 2: second bite at the chair if you lose. The other

312
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:14,360
Speaker 2: thing too is their defense is excellent, best in the competition,

313
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,160
Speaker 2: and we've struggled to generate points. So it's like, what

314
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:18,720
Speaker 2: does it put those two together? What do you get?

315
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I saw on Monday there was like someone

316
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:26,400
Speaker 1: did average tries scored, average tries conceded, and so Bulldogs

317
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 1: were the lowest and average tries conceded at two point six.

318
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:31,840
Speaker 1: We're about middle of the table for tries scored, right,

319
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:35,319
Speaker 1: So we're not bad bad, we're not great, and we're

320
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:38,080
Speaker 1: not bad, bad, and unfortunately the thing that's happened to

321
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,240
Speaker 1: us we are quite We're quite down there for like

322
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:44,600
Speaker 1: allowing points. Yeah, the Titans game, did you know, skew

323
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:46,319
Speaker 1: that stat for us a little bit. But the thing

324
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 1: that the Bulldogs have found in the last few weeks

325
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 1: is scoring tries.

326
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:52,199
Speaker 2: Yes they have. It's like Sieraldo when okay, we figured

327
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:55,000
Speaker 2: out a defense. Now it's start attacking. So I'm going

328
00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:57,120
Speaker 2: to switch his lights off in the coach's box. Yeah,

329
00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:59,439
Speaker 2: we've got the lights are you would die? You're not? Nah?

330
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:01,720
Speaker 2: Would you do it? Yeah? What do you mean? Yeah?

331
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:03,679
Speaker 2: Of course you don't think that we'd get kicked out.

332
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,280
Speaker 2: I don't. They never be able to comtact Mount smartiver again. No,

333
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:07,640
Speaker 2: I know that the Mount.

334
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:09,800
Speaker 1: Smart weren't listening to these podcasts, which sorry, man had

335
00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:12,640
Speaker 1: no idea. I didn't realize that. It was just come

336
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:15,800
Speaker 1: in and flicked the lights. Sorry did it happened immediately after

337
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 1: they had a stone cold knock on, and then the

338
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:19,720
Speaker 1: camera panned round to Cameron Serreldo and he had the

339
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:21,240
Speaker 1: lights off, and then I flicked them on so that

340
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:22,000
Speaker 1: everyone could see him.

341
00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:25,320
Speaker 2: Maybe or even I'll be stoked with just one little

342
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:28,200
Speaker 2: on off. That's it. Yeah, just like a recognition that

343
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:30,280
Speaker 2: we have the power here. Yeah, and if we wanted to,

344
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,560
Speaker 2: we could bring you to your knees. So I'm going

345
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:36,440
Speaker 2: to go thirty points Bulldogs to like ten to Warriors,

346
00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 2: oh ten. But I'm doing this in a way where

347
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,479
Speaker 2: I want to watch this game and be fucking surprised

348
00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:46,960
Speaker 2: when the Warriors get up massively. For Sean Johnson, you

349
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 2: want to be wrong? Yeah, absolutely, because I've been picking

350
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,680
Speaker 2: the Warriors to win and every time they lose. Every time,

351
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:54,720
Speaker 2: I whay, Yeah, So that's what my gut says.

352
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:56,760
Speaker 1: I do think that the one thing that the Warriors

353
00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:58,760
Speaker 1: have struggled with this year is when they get down,

354
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 1: it doesn't seem like this something was someone to turn

355
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:03,560
Speaker 1: them around behind the posts.

356
00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:06,400
Speaker 2: Because the first teen to fifteen we're fine, we're sick.

357
00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:08,520
Speaker 1: Then that last sort of fifteen minutes of the first

358
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 1: half we fade off and it's like, who's going to

359
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 1: stand up and get everyone on the same page and

360
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:16,600
Speaker 1: humming again. If it has to be Shawn Johnson's last

361
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:18,720
Speaker 1: game at home, I don't know. I think it could be.

362
00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:20,680
Speaker 1: I think this could be closer the line at the

363
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:23,720
Speaker 1: tearb's about five and a half, right, so I don't

364
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 1: mind that.

365
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:26,040
Speaker 2: Well, the actual war is paying just to win two

366
00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 2: dollars fifty five.

367
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:29,440
Speaker 1: But the problem with that is they would have started

368
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 1: at at about five dollars and just been smashed in

369
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:35,760
Speaker 1: by everyone on the Shawn Johnson Buzz this week, So

370
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:40,480
Speaker 1: I don't know plus two a right, Yeah, I'll lock

371
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:42,200
Speaker 1: that in as well. All right, let's take a quick

372
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:44,680
Speaker 1: break and we'll come back and we'll talk about super Couch.

373
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:49,000
Speaker 2: We welcome back into the podcast staff.

374
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 1: You can't to join the a SEC team for a

375
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:52,840
Speaker 1: massive rugby league weekend in March of twenty twenty five.

376
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:54,920
Speaker 1: It get takes Vegas to three two three six to

377
00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 1: book your spots, super coach Chris. I think for most

378
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:02,920
Speaker 1: people they've pivoted two overall stats. Now you certainly have

379
00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:06,080
Speaker 1: as opposed to hit to hit. Yeah, it's so tough

380
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:09,600
Speaker 1: this end of the season because trades are dwindling. A

381
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,800
Speaker 1: lot of people's hit to head matchups over well, and

382
00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:15,600
Speaker 1: the players are going to get roosted in the next

383
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:16,200
Speaker 1: few weeks.

384
00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:20,280
Speaker 2: I guarantee you if you've got Jerome Hughes, Harry Grant,

385
00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:24,360
Speaker 2: Munster like guys like that or even Brian to or

386
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,080
Speaker 2: guys in those top teams. Now that Melbourne have officially

387
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:28,600
Speaker 2: if they win this weekend, I think they might have

388
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:34,800
Speaker 2: sewn up the warnership. Oh yeah, because they beat the Panthers. Yes,

389
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:37,840
Speaker 2: they're on forty. Oh yes, if they win this week

390
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:40,440
Speaker 2: they can pretty corn up. Yeah. And so I think

391
00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 2: I've only got Harry Grant as my starting hooker and

392
00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:44,880
Speaker 2: Jayden Brady. So I think next week, when if you

393
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,640
Speaker 2: do make it to the finals of your head to

394
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:50,400
Speaker 2: Hear league, it's going to be super tricky. And also

395
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:51,920
Speaker 2: the Tigers are on the by So if you've got

396
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:55,760
Speaker 2: like Lochland Galvin for example, yeah, well fine, new you know,

397
00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:58,640
Speaker 2: like these guys that everyone's got, Yeah, it could be

398
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:04,119
Speaker 2: trouble there. But I just have to make a note

399
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:06,639
Speaker 2: for next year and just say, Chris, come into the

400
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:08,639
Speaker 2: last part of the season with ten trades up your sleeve,

401
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:11,560
Speaker 2: because every year I blow my load early. I blow

402
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:13,960
Speaker 2: it early and I early. You heard that.

403
00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:17,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've been alright for trades. I just got done

404
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:19,640
Speaker 1: and they had to head in the last couple of weeks.

405
00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:22,680
Speaker 1: Despite having lead a Fantasy league for most of the year,

406
00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:25,919
Speaker 1: I guess the biggest issue this week for super coaches

407
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:27,480
Speaker 1: is what do you do with Nathan Cleary?

408
00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:28,920
Speaker 2: What are you doing?

409
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:34,080
Speaker 1: I've got Matt Burton sitting in there right now in

410
00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 1: the halves because he's both the halves. Yeah, he is

411
00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:39,800
Speaker 1: half back and five eighth. How many trades you got?

412
00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:42,720
Speaker 1: I don't feel great about it. I have two trades left.

413
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:44,720
Speaker 1: That was the one that I've made so far this

414
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:45,240
Speaker 1: this week.

415
00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:50,359
Speaker 2: Okay, so you've gone Matt Burton in? Yeah, why I

416
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 2: don't feel great about it? I'm not. Yeah, I don't

417
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:55,000
Speaker 2: think that's wrong. Worry is it? Go media? For Shawn

418
00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:57,399
Speaker 2: Johns's last game. There's every chance he could have a shitter.

419
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:02,760
Speaker 2: Every chance he could absolutely kill See. Because I'm just

420
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,640
Speaker 2: looking at the most traded in stats, they send out

421
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:09,800
Speaker 2: an email, NURL super coach, Do I think the most

422
00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:12,680
Speaker 2: traded in person is daily Cherry Evans at eighteen point

423
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:15,600
Speaker 2: eight percent. Seagulls have the Tigers. So they have the

424
00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:20,040
Speaker 2: Tigers tonight tonight, which obviously the bottom team on the table,

425
00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 2: so could absolutely light them up. However, I am going

426
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:26,919
Speaker 2: Sam Walker. Yeah. Now, partly this is because if I

427
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,639
Speaker 2: do beat Dihinwood and now hit to head league. This week,

428
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:33,399
Speaker 2: I moved to face Isaac from Hodaki, who's got a

429
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:36,800
Speaker 2: stacked team and he's got Sam Walker, and I've just decided,

430
00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:40,200
Speaker 2: don't try and pot against I just just get Sam

431
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:42,159
Speaker 2: Walker in because the Roosters, this is what we were

432
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 2: trying to tell you about Ags Crichton last week. The

433
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:46,480
Speaker 2: Roosters play the Titans, and then they play the Raiders,

434
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:48,280
Speaker 2: and then they play the Rabbit. O's that is such

435
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:50,480
Speaker 2: an easy run. He is goalkicking for them. They could

436
00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:53,440
Speaker 2: even if they run up ten tries and he doesn't

437
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:55,720
Speaker 2: get a single triassist. Ye, he's still got to kick

438
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:58,920
Speaker 2: ten goals. So on My thing with him is I

439
00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:01,359
Speaker 2: just think goalkicking half go for it. Other people are

440
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,959
Speaker 2: going for daily Cherry Evans as mentioned, because they are

441
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:05,679
Speaker 2: playing the Tags. He doesn't goalkick. A lot of the

442
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 2: tries come through Tom Turbo, you know, and Garret's the goalkicker.

443
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:12,560
Speaker 2: So I just you can flip a coin for them.

444
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:14,960
Speaker 2: But I think Sam Walker has the highest chance to

445
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:16,680
Speaker 2: go like one pin fifty on any given day.

446
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, I do too, But he also has the highest

447
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:21,680
Speaker 1: chance to go like thirty four one hundred percent. It's

448
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 1: wild because I'll have these games where they score a

449
00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:26,840
Speaker 1: bunch of points and he The other thing is I've

450
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:29,040
Speaker 1: avoided I've resisted Sam Walker for so long.

451
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:31,000
Speaker 2: I can't bring him in. That's laid in the piece.

452
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:32,840
Speaker 2: You know. I should have brought him in mid season.

453
00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:34,920
Speaker 2: Everyone should have fleir he brought it went down. Half

454
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:36,879
Speaker 2: the people dead and the other half didn't. I didn't

455
00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:40,760
Speaker 2: the first time. Everyone should have done it. Yeah, so geez,

456
00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:43,320
Speaker 2: do you bring Sean John's in it? But they've got

457
00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 2: the buy in round twenty seven and he probably won't

458
00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:49,200
Speaker 2: play next week if they would, that is I mean, look, sure,

459
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:51,240
Speaker 2: that's a huge I love the Warriors play, and I

460
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:53,640
Speaker 2: want to dedicate this to Sewan Johnson play. Hey, I'd

461
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:54,720
Speaker 2: do it if I was you, because I'm out of

462
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:56,760
Speaker 2: the running. I know, I know he's good his own podcast.

463
00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:58,439
Speaker 2: He's probably not listen to this one. But if he

464
00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:02,080
Speaker 2: does this aunds for you, then this one's for you. Sean,

465
00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:04,679
Speaker 2: do it for monochasmo. I'm ringing, I'm ringing you in.

466
00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:05,640
Speaker 2: I guess.

467
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:08,240
Speaker 1: The other one is if you had a bunch of

468
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 1: trades up your sleeve, the power move would be to

469
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:14,280
Speaker 1: go Ponger to Turbo on the like, if you have

470
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:15,720
Speaker 1: to win a head to hit match up.

471
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:19,240
Speaker 2: What's what's Turbo against the Tigers going to do? That's

472
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:22,600
Speaker 2: better than Ponger against the rabbit O's. I think Turbo

473
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:26,320
Speaker 2: could go like massive. The rabbit O's are shite house.

474
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:28,879
Speaker 2: I think you need as many Knights as possible in

475
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:31,240
Speaker 2: your team. I don't think the Rabbits are as shit

476
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:34,400
Speaker 2: as the as the Tigers. They're both very shit, I'm

477
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,280
Speaker 2: very very much. I think the difference is that Manly

478
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:40,560
Speaker 2: a genuine top four chants, whereas the Knights are struggling

479
00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:43,639
Speaker 2: to make the eight. So their attacks better, you know,

480
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:48,480
Speaker 2: so they're gonna have more opportunities to click maybe, but yeah,

481
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 2: look it's just a massive luxury trade by the way,

482
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:52,760
Speaker 2: a huge yeah. Yeah. So mine's just Sam Walker and

483
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:55,760
Speaker 2: for Nathan Cleary, who are your wingers.

484
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 1: By the way, me, I have still a bunch of

485
00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:03,320
Speaker 1: the dom Young Garrick is in there for me. Name

486
00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:06,119
Speaker 1: yeap Val Holmes who's on the by this week, which

487
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:09,880
Speaker 1: means one of my either Sam stone Street or Burbo

488
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:11,760
Speaker 1: is going to get a run there. I do have

489
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:13,440
Speaker 1: another trade though, so I think one of those guys

490
00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:16,560
Speaker 1: is going to go to I don't know who have you.

491
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:20,080
Speaker 2: Got, So I've got Garrick and Dong Yum. But I

492
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:22,160
Speaker 2: went full night, so I've got Marju and gag Guy.

493
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:24,879
Speaker 2: I just got rid of Marjo. Yeah, Marju scored seventy

494
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 2: four and gag Guy scored ninety six last week, so

495
00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 2: that they both and Ponger they all combined to get

496
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 2: me up through by Simmi quarter final into the Semis.

497
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:37,000
Speaker 2: Yeah right, but I didn't realize I've still got Jamaina Suckle,

498
00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:38,159
Speaker 2: who I really want to get rid of it. I'm

499
00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:40,480
Speaker 2: out of trades now, too late, I think. Yeah, I

500
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:45,200
Speaker 2: brought Isaac Tungal in because when Cleary's back, his scores

501
00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:47,119
Speaker 2: go through the roof, and when Cleary went down, I

502
00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:48,920
Speaker 2: didn't think about it that Tungle is going to be

503
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,119
Speaker 2: shit now as well. Yeah, so he's pretty much not

504
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:52,560
Speaker 2: going to play for the rest of the season. For me,

505
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:54,960
Speaker 2: I think you're stuck with him. So then what do

506
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:57,120
Speaker 2: you do then? If you had a trade, who would

507
00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:59,120
Speaker 2: you go? If I had a trade, I think I'd

508
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:02,359
Speaker 2: go Lomax. Just because the Dragons are fighting for the

509
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:05,679
Speaker 2: top eight. They can't afford to rest anyone, and I

510
00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:08,600
Speaker 2: believe their run is quite good as well. Just having

511
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:10,920
Speaker 2: a look here. They have got to the Sharks this week,

512
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:12,399
Speaker 2: so I might not be that great, but then the

513
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:15,880
Speaker 2: Eels and then the Raiders, so and he's goal kicking

514
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 2: for them. So if I could bring someone into be

515
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:21,879
Speaker 2: Zach Lomax, you've convinced me. I'm bringing them in.

516
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,680
Speaker 1: Oh shit, So I've now got Sean Johnson and Jerome

517
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:27,240
Speaker 1: Hughes and my haves, which means when Jerome Hughes gets rested,

518
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:28,119
Speaker 1: I don't have no halves.

519
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:32,359
Speaker 2: But did you already have He's just a matter of faith. Yeah, yeah,

520
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:34,680
Speaker 2: far that's huge, Yeah, that is huge. Huge.

521
00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 1: So if you had to, if you had to fire

522
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:38,119
Speaker 1: a shot this week, because you who would be your

523
00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:40,600
Speaker 1: big pick up? If it's like do or die, your

524
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:42,880
Speaker 1: team's on the line, you need to try and beat

525
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:46,119
Speaker 1: a player, Well, I goes, I'd look at their team first.

526
00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:48,439
Speaker 1: Zachlomax is the one I just mentioned, but I also

527
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:50,639
Speaker 1: just a pod winger on a gun team. Like you know,

528
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:53,120
Speaker 1: Brian is not very well high owned this, you know,

529
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:56,240
Speaker 1: like not many people are on him.

530
00:22:56,760 --> 00:23:00,040
Speaker 2: Who else is hot? Kyle felt, They've got the I

531
00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:02,840
Speaker 2: got to buy this way, but he's stills like right

532
00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:04,760
Speaker 2: up there in terms of the top try scorer in

533
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:07,720
Speaker 2: the comp you know, or if I really wanted to

534
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 2: fire a shot and I hate this dude, I hate

535
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:13,679
Speaker 2: him Jason Sab eighty eight points last week because he

536
00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:18,600
Speaker 2: could score twelve yeah, and be a pathetic tackler and

537
00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:21,480
Speaker 2: run per week every time he gets the ball. However,

538
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 2: he could score four tries against the Tigers tonight and

539
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 2: you could have Garrick, you could have Turbo, you could

540
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:29,639
Speaker 2: have the Saab nine thousand, and you could be watching

541
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:31,760
Speaker 2: them put on an absolute score. So if he's probably

542
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:34,240
Speaker 2: a poet as well, and he swallows uploads, he does

543
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 2: actually the old Sab.

544
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 1: How many other Wiggans can say that? All right, good

545
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:41,120
Speaker 1: luck to all of you who are captains. Oh yes, captains.

546
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 1: I think for me, I am going to having said

547
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:47,359
Speaker 1: all of that about dropping Ponger in that I think

548
00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:48,639
Speaker 1: who's your fullbacks?

549
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:50,639
Speaker 2: Pongo and to Disco. So you're not going to go

550
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:52,920
Speaker 2: teddy against the Titans at four pm in the afternoon.

551
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:57,119
Speaker 2: Oh when is it Saturday? Sunday? So you can captain

552
00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:59,560
Speaker 2: him and vice captain. You can't vice captain Ponger though,

553
00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:02,359
Speaker 2: because the bad That's okay? I want to fuck the

554
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:07,919
Speaker 2: loop up anyway. And Vice Captain Seawan Johnson. Oh wow, really, ONJ,

555
00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,480
Speaker 2: you know what you should do is captain him the

556
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,960
Speaker 2: ultimate shove loyalty. How you are Captain Seawn Johnson, you

557
00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:15,879
Speaker 2: won't do that. I've done it now, come on, and

558
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,840
Speaker 2: I's been stupid now man, No, I'm all for having fun,

559
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:20,639
Speaker 2: but that's just stupid. I'm captaining is J. You're all

560
00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:23,240
Speaker 2: going to see it on Monday. Yeah, what about you?

561
00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:24,600
Speaker 2: Who are you going to captain? Well, I'm going to

562
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:26,479
Speaker 2: play it safe. I don't love s J as much

563
00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:29,720
Speaker 2: as you do, but I'm just going to go to

564
00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:32,480
Speaker 2: disco against the Titans. Die has got to disco against

565
00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:34,920
Speaker 2: the Titans as his captain, and you're facing him. I'm

566
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 2: facing him. So I thought maybe I could flip it

567
00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:40,639
Speaker 2: round and go pom A v. The Rabbits, because that

568
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:43,480
Speaker 2: way it's like head to head, whichever fallback scores the best. Yeah,

569
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 2: but I've decided actually no, let's just cancel ch each

570
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,920
Speaker 2: other out. Yeah, win it somewhere else, that's right, which

571
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,960
Speaker 2: means you're in for like a twenty point win or loss.

572
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:54,280
Speaker 2: That's right. It'll be heartbreaking and then they'll be like

573
00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:56,160
Speaker 2: a You'll be winning and then there'll be a count

574
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:57,800
Speaker 2: back and then you'll lose, which has happened to be

575
00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 2: a couple of times to me a couple of weeks ago.

576
00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:02,800
Speaker 2: And to be honest, Vice Captain, I'm just gonna whack

577
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:04,960
Speaker 2: it on Garrick tonight, Yeah, because if they score a

578
00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:06,680
Speaker 2: shitload of tries, he should get a few points so

579
00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:08,879
Speaker 2: and if not, then you lose nothing exactly.

580
00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:11,560
Speaker 1: Let's take one more quick break and when we come back,

581
00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 1: we're going to put a hunch down on the tab.

582
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:20,080
Speaker 1: It should come as no surprise to you, CAZy that

583
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:24,359
Speaker 1: the TB are wrapped all around Shawn Johnson tomorrow night

584
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:26,400
Speaker 1: as well. Yeah, well it makes sense, doesn't it. And

585
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:29,320
Speaker 1: to be honest, it's genius because people are gonna it's

586
00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:31,800
Speaker 1: like their last chance to bet on Sean Johnson, that's right.

587
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:34,359
Speaker 2: And this year the TB has made a lot of

588
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:36,840
Speaker 2: money off Seann Johnson, a lot of my money lost

589
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:38,639
Speaker 2: a lot of it last year, to be fair. So

590
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:42,040
Speaker 2: underneath the power plays whin normal power plays are there

591
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:44,840
Speaker 2: is now a segment that just is Sewan Johnson power plays.

592
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:46,920
Speaker 2: And so I'll run you through them.

593
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:48,960
Speaker 1: You tell me when you want to stop, and we'll

594
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:51,080
Speaker 1: use that as our hunch for this week.

595
00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:53,199
Speaker 2: Oh wow, there is two. I think I think we

596
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 2: need to start it around the We're gonna start the

597
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:56,160
Speaker 2: betting in around three dollars fifty.

598
00:25:56,160 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 1: Here, three dollars fifty. Seawan Johnson one hundred plus running meters.

599
00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:02,920
Speaker 1: I can't see that happening. I don't think he's running

600
00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:04,840
Speaker 1: for one hundred meters. No, he hasn't done that in ages.

601
00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:11,359
Speaker 1: Shawn Johnson to force two plus dropouts. I liked this one. Yes,

602
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:13,959
Speaker 1: he hasn't forced a lot this season. I think there

603
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 1: was one last last week.

604
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 2: And also but like, when we get down to that

605
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:19,720
Speaker 2: pressure area, the most we can do is just kick

606
00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:21,679
Speaker 2: and keck it. Yeah, although not a lot of our

607
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:24,359
Speaker 2: kecks have been ones where we're then chasing through and

608
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:26,440
Speaker 2: forcing a dropout. It's usually ones at like ten meters

609
00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:29,159
Speaker 2: out from the line and not really kind of contestable.

610
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:32,640
Speaker 1: But the Yeah, the next one excites me. Sean Johnson

611
00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:34,960
Speaker 1: to make one plus line breaks, so he just needs

612
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:37,400
Speaker 1: to break the line once. Now this is coming from

613
00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:39,520
Speaker 1: a if we win, how do we want to win?

614
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:43,280
Speaker 2: Would there be anything more exciting than Shawn Johnson bursting

615
00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:46,040
Speaker 2: into the backfield and us putting three hundred and fifty

616
00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:48,400
Speaker 2: dollars into the acc Keddy because of it just one

617
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:50,760
Speaker 2: line break, one line break. It just needs to poke

618
00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:54,040
Speaker 2: his nose through. I mean I like that.

619
00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:57,040
Speaker 1: Another couple options Shawn Johnson to score more tries than

620
00:26:57,080 --> 00:27:00,639
Speaker 1: Toby six, then I forgot Toby six and starting for them.

621
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:03,840
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't think I like the fairy tale

622
00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:07,119
Speaker 2: of Sewan Johnson scoring a try at Mount SMTT. One

623
00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:09,320
Speaker 2: thing I've noticed about Sean Johnson he loves a hero play,

624
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:13,520
Speaker 2: so he will have in his head. I would love

625
00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:15,360
Speaker 2: to score a try at Mount smet one last time.

626
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:17,080
Speaker 2: He is going to be trying to do that. What

627
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:18,160
Speaker 2: about okay?

628
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,359
Speaker 1: Yeah absolutely is all thirteen players on our side of

629
00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:23,480
Speaker 1: the field and probably half a dozen on the other,

630
00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:25,359
Speaker 1: we'll be looking for that as well. Yeah, what about

631
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:29,840
Speaker 1: Johnson first or last try scorer? Because picture it's been

632
00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:33,399
Speaker 1: seventy minutes and Shawn Johnson hasn't scored. That're doing everything

633
00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:36,080
Speaker 1: they can for him to score, right, I think if

634
00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:37,760
Speaker 1: I think if he scores, it's the last.

635
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:40,639
Speaker 2: Seawan Johnson just to score the last match try as

636
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:43,120
Speaker 2: fifteen dollars and you can see like the game's over.

637
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:46,760
Speaker 2: We've lost, like this Heaven for bed right, Well, we're losing. Yeah,

638
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 2: the game's over. We switch it on to the last

639
00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:50,920
Speaker 2: team like we always do. We've run in a few

640
00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 2: tries and then they wait there for Sean to come

641
00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:54,800
Speaker 2: over throw on the ball and he scores it. Do

642
00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:57,720
Speaker 2: you't thon that would happen? I can see it. Let's

643
00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:01,040
Speaker 2: get on it, I reckon, that's so risky. Yeah, that's

644
00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:03,480
Speaker 2: why they're paying fifteen dollars. You don't think we should

645
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:05,840
Speaker 2: do something about our big forward smashing through their little

646
00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:09,520
Speaker 2: blokes any other week of the year. Yeah, Shawn Johnson's

647
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:11,200
Speaker 2: last game. Yeah, okay, And you're never gonna have Sean

648
00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 2: Johnson power plays available over again, are you? No?

649
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 1: So I think for ten dollars to give us the

650
00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:19,480
Speaker 1: second bite of the cherry, Shawn Johnson first or last,

651
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,320
Speaker 1: So then we got two chances to win that. Yeah,

652
00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:24,800
Speaker 1: and we're only giving away five dollars an odds we

653
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 1: put one hundred dollars on. That's around one thousand dollars,

654
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:29,320
Speaker 1: and that means we've paid out.

655
00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:33,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, back in all thoughts, Yeah, okay, I've just seen

656
00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:36,520
Speaker 2: Sewan Johnson to score a try between the post eleven dollars.

657
00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 1: That's so specific in the post. I'd want more than

658
00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:41,640
Speaker 1: eleven if I can get first or last. All right,

659
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:43,960
Speaker 1: we're gonna go first or last. That is our hunch

660
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,480
Speaker 1: for this week. Follow along responsibly and placing that bit

661
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:49,080
