1 00:00:09,133 --> 00:00:12,733 Speaker 1: You're listening to a podcast from News Talks EDB. Follow 2 00:00:12,813 --> 00:00:18,453 Speaker 1: this and our Wide Ranger podcast now on iHeartRadio The 3 00:00:18,493 --> 00:00:22,573 Speaker 1: Big League Podcast podcast by News Talks EDB. 4 00:00:23,173 --> 00:00:26,333 Speaker 2: This week on The Big League Podcast, Warries Halfback to 5 00:00:26,493 --> 00:00:30,093 Speaker 2: My Dear, Martin explains the reasons behind his continued success 6 00:00:30,173 --> 00:00:33,853 Speaker 2: in the number seven jersey alongside Chanelle Harris Tavita, and 7 00:00:33,853 --> 00:00:37,173 Speaker 2: why he felt zero pressure in attempting to rectify one 8 00:00:37,173 --> 00:00:40,293 Speaker 2: of the worst losses in franchise history. Michael Burgess and 9 00:00:40,293 --> 00:00:43,213 Speaker 2: I will analyze a stellar bounced back performance against the 10 00:00:43,253 --> 00:00:46,333 Speaker 2: Boncos and argue whether Shan Johnson will be able to 11 00:00:46,333 --> 00:00:47,893 Speaker 2: get back into the side. 12 00:00:48,253 --> 00:00:51,653 Speaker 3: My name is Nathan Limb. Let's go b LB. 13 00:00:52,493 --> 00:00:56,013 Speaker 2: I've been a big supporter and proponent of the Sean 14 00:00:56,133 --> 00:00:59,413 Speaker 2: Johnson and Timid and Martin Harves combination. I believe they 15 00:00:59,453 --> 00:01:03,653 Speaker 2: are individually the two best and most experienced has at 16 00:01:03,693 --> 00:01:06,773 Speaker 2: the club and the Warriors' best hope of winning high 17 00:01:06,853 --> 00:01:10,733 Speaker 2: pressure finals games. However, with Johnson now injured for at 18 00:01:10,853 --> 00:01:14,453 Speaker 2: least four weeks and their precarious position on the ladder, 19 00:01:14,573 --> 00:01:17,293 Speaker 2: they simply do not have the time to wait for 20 00:01:17,373 --> 00:01:21,693 Speaker 2: the combination to grow. Once SJ comes back. They need 21 00:01:21,733 --> 00:01:24,733 Speaker 2: to win games, and the Tomighto Martin and Chanelle Harris 22 00:01:24,773 --> 00:01:28,693 Speaker 2: Devita pairing is doing the job. They were outstanding against 23 00:01:28,733 --> 00:01:31,973 Speaker 2: the Broncos. Why well, the truth is Johnson is barely 24 00:01:32,013 --> 00:01:35,133 Speaker 2: trained this year due to repeated injuries in practice during 25 00:01:35,133 --> 00:01:38,093 Speaker 2: the week. The Warriors have been running Martin at halfback, 26 00:01:38,413 --> 00:01:41,133 Speaker 2: even though Johnson's been slotting in on game day. So 27 00:01:41,173 --> 00:01:44,173 Speaker 2: when Martin does run the attack on game day, they 28 00:01:44,213 --> 00:01:47,973 Speaker 2: look more organized and cohesive. Three games with Martin at 29 00:01:48,013 --> 00:01:51,733 Speaker 2: seven and three wins, I can no longer argue with that. 30 00:01:51,733 --> 00:01:55,693 Speaker 2: Martin and Harris Devita should be the Warriors half pairing 31 00:01:55,933 --> 00:01:59,613 Speaker 2: halves pairing for the remainder of the season. Michael Bergers, 32 00:01:59,653 --> 00:02:03,453 Speaker 2: Senior New Zealand Herald Ryder sounds weird saying that, but 33 00:02:03,573 --> 00:02:04,533 Speaker 2: agree or disagree? 34 00:02:05,733 --> 00:02:08,173 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm good throwing me a big one to start, 35 00:02:08,853 --> 00:02:13,173 Speaker 4: which is good. This gets straight into it. I disagree. 36 00:02:14,053 --> 00:02:17,413 Speaker 4: I don't know if they should be for the remainder 37 00:02:17,453 --> 00:02:21,693 Speaker 4: of the season. I think that if the thing is, 38 00:02:21,853 --> 00:02:24,213 Speaker 4: we haven't really seen Sean Johnson this year. We haven't 39 00:02:24,253 --> 00:02:27,693 Speaker 4: seen what you call Seawan Johnson. We've seen another guy, 40 00:02:27,773 --> 00:02:30,373 Speaker 4: a guy that's been injured all the time, hasn't really 41 00:02:30,413 --> 00:02:33,693 Speaker 4: got going, hasn't got his confidence, hasn't got physically right, 42 00:02:34,293 --> 00:02:36,213 Speaker 4: and that's kind of shown. He still had some decent 43 00:02:36,253 --> 00:02:42,133 Speaker 4: games early on, but he's obviously struggled with a struggling team. 44 00:02:42,173 --> 00:02:45,053 Speaker 4: And yeah, you make a good point that the case 45 00:02:45,213 --> 00:02:49,133 Speaker 4: for Martin and Harris to veat it is pretty compelling, 46 00:02:49,173 --> 00:02:54,093 Speaker 4: isn't it, because of what they've done in those games, 47 00:02:54,133 --> 00:02:58,173 Speaker 4: Martin against Penrith and then of course Cowboys Dolphins in 48 00:02:58,213 --> 00:02:58,773 Speaker 4: the Broncos. 49 00:02:58,773 --> 00:02:59,813 Speaker 3: So it's pretty compelling. 50 00:02:59,813 --> 00:03:02,653 Speaker 4: But if Sean Johnson did get back to full fitness, 51 00:03:03,613 --> 00:03:06,213 Speaker 4: got his confidence back, I take your point. It's hard 52 00:03:06,213 --> 00:03:08,173 Speaker 4: to do that. You don't want to be, you know, 53 00:03:08,573 --> 00:03:10,773 Speaker 4: on a learning curve in games with Martin and Johnson 54 00:03:10,773 --> 00:03:13,093 Speaker 4: trying to work together again. But if he came right 55 00:03:13,133 --> 00:03:15,613 Speaker 4: towards the end of the season, I'd still want Sean 56 00:03:15,653 --> 00:03:18,693 Speaker 4: Johnson on the field. He's the best guy in terms 57 00:03:18,733 --> 00:03:21,973 Speaker 4: of playing structure. Martin is very off the cuff, which 58 00:03:22,013 --> 00:03:25,373 Speaker 4: is perfect at the moment, but against teams towards in 59 00:03:25,413 --> 00:03:29,053 Speaker 4: the finals, you also need that structure. So yeah, I 60 00:03:29,093 --> 00:03:31,773 Speaker 4: would like a Johnson Martin. I think a Johnson Martin 61 00:03:31,853 --> 00:03:35,773 Speaker 4: combination can still work. But I can certainly see why 62 00:03:35,893 --> 00:03:38,613 Speaker 4: if we were out on the street asking people right now, 63 00:03:39,213 --> 00:03:41,133 Speaker 4: most people would be agreeing with you, and they'd be 64 00:03:41,173 --> 00:03:44,053 Speaker 4: saying that no, this is this is it for Sean 65 00:03:44,333 --> 00:03:47,693 Speaker 4: and Mark to Marty and Chanelle are the future for 66 00:03:47,693 --> 00:03:48,333 Speaker 4: the rest of the year. 67 00:03:48,413 --> 00:03:51,653 Speaker 2: We'll say Sean Johnson is out for the next three 68 00:03:51,693 --> 00:03:54,773 Speaker 2: weeks and they come away with two wins and a loss, 69 00:03:55,413 --> 00:03:57,773 Speaker 2: but their attacks look better than it has all season 70 00:03:57,893 --> 00:04:01,493 Speaker 2: with Johnson running the cutter. Do you change your winning combination? 71 00:04:01,973 --> 00:04:05,373 Speaker 2: Because for me, they don't have the They can't risk 72 00:04:05,413 --> 00:04:07,893 Speaker 2: if they've got something that's working with the position there 73 00:04:07,933 --> 00:04:10,173 Speaker 2: in at the lane. In the games they've blown the season, 74 00:04:10,613 --> 00:04:15,053 Speaker 2: they can't risk changing a winning formula anymore. If Johnson 75 00:04:15,133 --> 00:04:17,453 Speaker 2: wasn't injured, I'd want to continue with it. But that's 76 00:04:17,533 --> 00:04:19,413 Speaker 2: just where we're at at this point now, because if 77 00:04:19,413 --> 00:04:21,173 Speaker 2: they start dropping games again, they're not going to make 78 00:04:21,173 --> 00:04:22,453 Speaker 2: the eight. 79 00:04:23,293 --> 00:04:25,373 Speaker 4: It is tight where they are, so that they'd had 80 00:04:25,373 --> 00:04:27,973 Speaker 4: a much room for error. Do you change a winning 81 00:04:27,973 --> 00:04:30,013 Speaker 4: formula where you are talking about Sean, you're talking about 82 00:04:30,053 --> 00:04:32,773 Speaker 4: the basically the daily and half back of the year. 83 00:04:32,853 --> 00:04:35,893 Speaker 4: Last year's that's who we're talking about. So should he 84 00:04:35,933 --> 00:04:39,173 Speaker 4: get back in the team. I'd say he should, but 85 00:04:39,613 --> 00:04:41,973 Speaker 4: it's a big if if they go on a crazy 86 00:04:41,973 --> 00:04:44,773 Speaker 4: winning run. Be very hard to change a winning team 87 00:04:44,813 --> 00:04:46,693 Speaker 4: and tinkle with a winning formula, as you said, but 88 00:04:47,413 --> 00:04:49,373 Speaker 4: they have done it before. They changed the team after 89 00:04:49,373 --> 00:04:52,013 Speaker 4: they beat Penrith. They also changed the team after they 90 00:04:52,093 --> 00:04:55,293 Speaker 4: beat the Dolphins as senior players came back, So they'd 91 00:04:55,293 --> 00:04:58,293 Speaker 4: probably like to find place for Sean. 92 00:04:58,373 --> 00:05:00,533 Speaker 3: But Seawan's also realistic. He's a team. 93 00:05:00,333 --> 00:05:05,733 Speaker 4: Man, and if he sees that Demartin, Martin and Chanella 94 00:05:05,853 --> 00:05:08,693 Speaker 4: going really well together, they might have there be some 95 00:05:08,733 --> 00:05:11,933 Speaker 4: difficult conversations for a couple of weeks. The other thing 96 00:05:12,013 --> 00:05:15,213 Speaker 4: is with this crazy sport that we follow, that is 97 00:05:15,253 --> 00:05:18,373 Speaker 4: that there's always an injury somewhere. So whether there's an 98 00:05:18,373 --> 00:05:21,893 Speaker 4: injury that I opened the door for someone somehow, I 99 00:05:21,893 --> 00:05:23,773 Speaker 4: think Sean might be a bit longer, actually than three 100 00:05:23,813 --> 00:05:27,333 Speaker 4: more weeks from what I've just what I've heard or 101 00:05:27,373 --> 00:05:27,893 Speaker 4: what I've seen. 102 00:05:27,893 --> 00:05:28,853 Speaker 3: But we'll see. 103 00:05:29,613 --> 00:05:35,053 Speaker 4: But it's a really good question to ask, and in 104 00:05:35,093 --> 00:05:37,733 Speaker 4: some ways it's a real positive because can you imagine 105 00:05:37,813 --> 00:05:42,453 Speaker 4: us having this conversation last year talking about, Gee, should 106 00:05:42,493 --> 00:05:44,853 Speaker 4: Sean Johnson be in the team. Last year, you and 107 00:05:44,893 --> 00:05:47,973 Speaker 4: I were having kittens on a couple of podcasts because 108 00:05:47,973 --> 00:05:50,413 Speaker 4: there were things about, oh, Sean Johnson might be out 109 00:05:50,413 --> 00:05:52,173 Speaker 4: this week. He's injured, what are we going to do? 110 00:05:52,693 --> 00:05:56,173 Speaker 4: The whole nation, well, the whole league nation was freaking 111 00:05:56,213 --> 00:05:59,253 Speaker 4: out before the Newcastle playoff game at home. The whole 112 00:05:59,293 --> 00:06:01,933 Speaker 4: week's stories was about Sean Johnson's calf muscle. Would he 113 00:06:01,973 --> 00:06:04,373 Speaker 4: be able to run? Because it just felt like the 114 00:06:04,413 --> 00:06:08,693 Speaker 4: team was so dependent on him and without him they they. 115 00:06:09,733 --> 00:06:11,013 Speaker 3: Just could not do much. 116 00:06:11,133 --> 00:06:13,733 Speaker 4: And it's turned so much now that we're debating a 117 00:06:13,853 --> 00:06:15,693 Speaker 4: whether he should be in the team, but b we're 118 00:06:15,693 --> 00:06:19,733 Speaker 4: talking about, Wow, we've got this half combination. He's injured 119 00:06:20,693 --> 00:06:23,413 Speaker 4: and they're showing real potential. So there is a real 120 00:06:23,453 --> 00:06:24,133 Speaker 4: positive here. 121 00:06:24,213 --> 00:06:26,813 Speaker 2: Just to back end this discussion, coach Andrew Webster says, 122 00:06:27,053 --> 00:06:29,293 Speaker 2: while there was still while there was ears, he liked 123 00:06:29,333 --> 00:06:32,253 Speaker 2: between the Timato Martin and Janelle Harris to Vita combination, 124 00:06:32,333 --> 00:06:34,413 Speaker 2: that pair still have room to grow. 125 00:06:34,613 --> 00:06:36,573 Speaker 5: I was happy with him, and I think we need 126 00:06:36,613 --> 00:06:39,053 Speaker 5: to stay grounded here. I think those boys would say 127 00:06:39,053 --> 00:06:40,133 Speaker 5: that they were wrapped. 128 00:06:39,813 --> 00:06:41,973 Speaker 3: In a lot of things they didn't thinks they want to. 129 00:06:41,893 --> 00:06:45,053 Speaker 2: Improve long We're going to hear from Tmighty and Martin 130 00:06:45,213 --> 00:06:47,973 Speaker 2: himself in a second, but first here are the highlights. 131 00:06:48,173 --> 00:06:51,053 Speaker 2: Warriors thirty two Broncos sixteen. 132 00:06:53,133 --> 00:06:53,493 Speaker 6: Underway? 133 00:06:53,693 --> 00:06:57,333 Speaker 3: Was Madden getting the match underway?

It's a long week. 168 00:08:39,973 --> 00:08:42,693 Speaker 7: That's try to brush it early, like what happened last 169 00:08:42,733 --> 00:08:43,933 Speaker 7: week and then get onto this week. 170 00:08:43,973 --> 00:08:45,973 Speaker 6: But it's always in the in the back of your 171 00:08:46,053 --> 00:08:48,853 Speaker 6: mind what happened last week.

I didn't, Yeah, none, I didn't. I don't feel 178 00:09:07,053 --> 00:09:07,213 Speaker 6: we did. 179 00:09:07,973 --> 00:09:10,693 Speaker 7: I found if we've done our job and we did well. 180 00:09:11,693 --> 00:09:13,253 Speaker 7: I felt like you could tell from the start. 181 00:09:14,213 --> 00:09:16,453 Speaker 6: Our very few set like we're here we've been in 182 00:09:16,493 --> 00:09:18,893 Speaker 6: in we are last week when we've come to bat. 183 00:09:20,533 --> 00:09:24,093 Speaker 7: I felt like that Patches in there in that first 184 00:09:24,133 --> 00:09:26,973 Speaker 7: half we defended, forced a lot of errors. 185 00:09:27,973 --> 00:09:29,653 Speaker 6: I think they only school from a kick, which is 186 00:09:29,773 --> 00:09:32,053 Speaker 6: which is good. Yeah. 187 00:09:32,093 --> 00:09:33,893 Speaker 7: Once once you get a lot of boys start feeling 188 00:09:33,933 --> 00:09:35,653 Speaker 7: what the defense is then and he start getting some tries. 189 00:09:35,693 --> 00:09:38,533 Speaker 6: So yeah, we get a lot of confidence. 190 00:09:38,213 --> 00:09:40,573 Speaker 8: Out of how we did, and Patches, you must be 191 00:09:40,693 --> 00:09:42,373 Speaker 8: very happy as well with the work from from you 192 00:09:42,493 --> 00:09:45,293 Speaker 8: and Shanel. Yeah, a lot of that comes from the 193 00:09:45,333 --> 00:09:48,813 Speaker 8: back of our defense, Like I said, forcing trunovers, then 194 00:09:48,973 --> 00:09:52,733 Speaker 8: getting a few errors and us capitalizing on the errors. 195 00:09:53,573 --> 00:09:55,813 Speaker 6: And then the more the more you get to play 196 00:09:55,853 --> 00:09:56,293 Speaker 6: with each. 197 00:09:56,133 --> 00:09:59,333 Speaker 7: Other, fascinate each other's combinations, it just gets a lot better. 198 00:09:59,333 --> 00:10:01,613 Speaker 7: I thought Sitting played well to night defense and offense 199 00:10:02,093 --> 00:10:03,413 Speaker 7: and also kicking someone. 200 00:10:04,733 --> 00:10:04,893 Speaker 6: Here. 201 00:10:04,933 --> 00:10:07,053 Speaker 7: We just improve on that for next week and look 202 00:10:07,053 --> 00:10:07,733 Speaker 7: towards the bootom. 203 00:10:08,413 --> 00:10:10,053 Speaker 4: In the games you have played together, do you do 204 00:10:10,133 --> 00:10:12,373 Speaker 4: you feel like you're sort of in the zone as 205 00:10:12,373 --> 00:10:15,253 Speaker 4: at number seven this year, you're sort of seeing things 206 00:10:15,293 --> 00:10:18,213 Speaker 4: early and making the right choices, and it's it's. 207 00:10:18,093 --> 00:10:21,213 Speaker 3: Coming kind of it's coming well to you. It's coming naturally. 208 00:10:22,693 --> 00:10:23,333 Speaker 6: Yeah, there's a lot. 209 00:10:23,453 --> 00:10:25,333 Speaker 7: There's a lot of stuff I still need to improve on, 210 00:10:25,453 --> 00:10:27,813 Speaker 7: Like I see afterwards and I can tell now what 211 00:10:27,933 --> 00:10:30,053 Speaker 7: I missed a few things. 212 00:10:30,133 --> 00:10:32,893 Speaker 6: But it just comes with playing the position. You get 213 00:10:33,573 --> 00:10:35,813 Speaker 6: a lot more confidence out of playing it. There's so 214 00:10:35,933 --> 00:10:37,133 Speaker 6: many reps you can do at training. 215 00:10:37,693 --> 00:10:39,213 Speaker 7: Until you get on the field and get a feel 216 00:10:39,213 --> 00:10:40,653 Speaker 7: for the game, it's it changes a little bit. 217 00:10:40,693 --> 00:10:43,613 Speaker 6: So it's good having a left food kick. 218 00:10:43,533 --> 00:10:46,013 Speaker 7: Out like Sinew can kick it to the left corner. 219 00:10:46,013 --> 00:10:48,533 Speaker 7: I kick to the right corner and then it just 220 00:10:48,573 --> 00:10:51,493 Speaker 7: flows from there. And I thought today and patches were 221 00:10:52,053 --> 00:10:54,493 Speaker 7: really good. But there's also a lot of in patches 222 00:10:54,533 --> 00:10:57,533 Speaker 7: where I need to improve where it won't take much, 223 00:10:57,573 --> 00:10:59,013 Speaker 7: but yeah, I need to improve. 224 00:10:59,373 --> 00:11:01,053 Speaker 4: And the vibe in here at the moment, talking to 225 00:11:01,133 --> 00:11:02,893 Speaker 4: the coach, talking to the players, it seems to be 226 00:11:03,013 --> 00:11:06,573 Speaker 4: sort of dissatisfied, but no one's getting carried away and 227 00:11:06,613 --> 00:11:08,093 Speaker 4: there's a lot a lot of work to do. 228 00:11:08,453 --> 00:11:10,253 Speaker 3: That kind of sum up how you're feeling. 229 00:11:10,493 --> 00:11:14,293 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's only one game with him. Yeah, it's hard 230 00:11:14,333 --> 00:11:16,213 Speaker 6: to say. We haven't wrapped many wins up on the wall. 231 00:11:16,293 --> 00:11:18,293 Speaker 7: If you see there's one, two, three, four or five 232 00:11:18,573 --> 00:11:21,573 Speaker 7: sexes of our seventh wins, so happy with it, but 233 00:11:21,933 --> 00:11:24,373 Speaker 7: also there's a lot to improve, so I think we're 234 00:11:24,373 --> 00:11:28,373 Speaker 7: looking more towards what needs to be improved and and 235 00:11:28,733 --> 00:11:32,173 Speaker 7: how we do that. So it's yeah, it's good. We're 236 00:11:32,573 --> 00:11:35,253 Speaker 7: excited for the challenge. It's obviously it's good to get 237 00:11:35,293 --> 00:11:36,453 Speaker 7: that week out of the way because it's a long 238 00:11:36,493 --> 00:11:38,173 Speaker 7: week coming off that Titans game. 239 00:11:38,573 --> 00:11:40,373 Speaker 6: To get it when we're happy in. 240 00:11:40,453 --> 00:11:43,253 Speaker 4: That combination you've got going with Dylan Walker. The way 241 00:11:43,333 --> 00:11:46,173 Speaker 4: you two are combining, it seems to be just going 242 00:11:46,253 --> 00:11:48,773 Speaker 4: so well. How has that started? And why do you 243 00:11:48,813 --> 00:11:50,933 Speaker 4: think it's going so well? To be honest, I think 244 00:11:51,653 --> 00:11:52,373 Speaker 4: a little bit of that. 245 00:11:53,853 --> 00:11:56,253 Speaker 7: Just comes from, like off the field, like a lot 246 00:11:56,333 --> 00:11:58,973 Speaker 7: of the plays sometimes I'm calling them as he's catching it, 247 00:11:59,053 --> 00:12:02,533 Speaker 7: and it's just sort of we're sort of displaying what's 248 00:12:02,573 --> 00:12:05,533 Speaker 7: in front. And Walks is real good at being able 249 00:12:05,573 --> 00:12:09,013 Speaker 7: to change something on the runway. That's where he's been 250 00:12:09,053 --> 00:12:11,173 Speaker 7: really good, Like his organizing with the middles and his 251 00:12:11,253 --> 00:12:13,533 Speaker 7: league speed around the middle, like he can play through, 252 00:12:13,733 --> 00:12:17,013 Speaker 7: how he can ball playing. He tried a little kick 253 00:12:17,053 --> 00:12:19,733 Speaker 7: today which was the right option he just needed to execute, 254 00:12:19,773 --> 00:12:22,013 Speaker 7: which yeah, he's he's a footy player where he just 255 00:12:22,493 --> 00:12:25,293 Speaker 7: think he can see things that and he backs himself. 256 00:12:25,333 --> 00:12:26,613 Speaker 6: So that's all we need at the moment. 257 00:12:26,733 --> 00:12:29,333 Speaker 7: Just if you see something, back yourself and if it 258 00:12:29,373 --> 00:12:30,893 Speaker 7: doesn't come off, we just back our defense. 259 00:12:31,253 --> 00:12:33,413 Speaker 3: This is the Big League Podcast. 260 00:12:36,373 --> 00:12:40,733 Speaker 1: This is coming the Big League Podcast on the Warriors 261 00:12:40,813 --> 00:12:41,453 Speaker 1: Band Wagons. 262 00:12:41,533 --> 00:12:42,973 Speaker 3: It's day one, Urge. 263 00:12:43,173 --> 00:12:45,453 Speaker 2: A great chat there with Tomdi and Martin. He's got 264 00:12:45,493 --> 00:12:48,573 Speaker 2: to be the most relaxed person I've ever met in 265 00:12:48,733 --> 00:12:52,053 Speaker 2: my life. My goal is to be for one day 266 00:12:52,253 --> 00:12:54,773 Speaker 2: as relaxed as Timid and Martin is all the time, 267 00:12:55,053 --> 00:12:56,853 Speaker 2: and I just don't think it's going to happen. 268 00:12:58,093 --> 00:12:58,773 Speaker 3: He is he is. 269 00:12:59,533 --> 00:13:01,813 Speaker 4: He's a super laid back guy. Every time I talk 270 00:13:01,853 --> 00:13:05,853 Speaker 4: to him, I think, Gee, how does this guy balance this? 271 00:13:06,373 --> 00:13:09,133 Speaker 4: Playing an NRL all the focus on him. He's got 272 00:13:09,453 --> 00:13:12,133 Speaker 4: a young child at home, He's got so much going on. 273 00:13:12,693 --> 00:13:15,133 Speaker 4: I think it might be fishing. I think every time 274 00:13:15,173 --> 00:13:17,333 Speaker 4: I talk to him, I think, Gee, maybe I need 275 00:13:17,413 --> 00:13:19,293 Speaker 4: to start going fishing. I never been into fishing, but 276 00:13:19,373 --> 00:13:22,853 Speaker 4: he loves fishing. Maybe that's his his tonic, Maybe that's 277 00:13:22,893 --> 00:13:23,333 Speaker 4: his secret. 278 00:13:23,493 --> 00:13:24,093 Speaker 3: I'm not sure. 279 00:13:26,053 --> 00:13:28,013 Speaker 4: Well, the rest of us are rushing around and so chill. 280 00:13:28,093 --> 00:13:30,533 Speaker 4: But yeah, the point he made about when I asked 281 00:13:30,613 --> 00:13:33,253 Speaker 4: him how much pressure is feeling. You know, he's got 282 00:13:33,333 --> 00:13:35,413 Speaker 4: to come and run the show, main playmaker. They've got 283 00:13:35,493 --> 00:13:37,973 Speaker 4: to win the game. No, not really, No, I was okay. 284 00:13:38,093 --> 00:13:40,413 Speaker 4: I mean maybe he's the kind of guy that can 285 00:13:40,533 --> 00:13:43,733 Speaker 4: just compartmentalize his life so he just focuses when he 286 00:13:43,813 --> 00:13:46,053 Speaker 4: needs to, right, I'm switching on now for the game, 287 00:13:46,173 --> 00:13:48,373 Speaker 4: and then I'm switching off. I really like his attitude 288 00:13:48,373 --> 00:13:51,293 Speaker 4: and his mindset because he if you don't let the 289 00:13:51,333 --> 00:13:53,893 Speaker 4: pressure get to you that you've got to play better. 290 00:13:53,773 --> 00:13:57,253 Speaker 3: Right, Well, that temperament surely helps him on the field. 291 00:13:57,413 --> 00:13:58,973 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know how you go into an 292 00:13:59,093 --> 00:14:02,053 Speaker 2: NRL game off the back of probably the worst loss 293 00:14:02,093 --> 00:14:05,213 Speaker 2: in franchise history. You're stepping up into that crucial role, 294 00:14:05,573 --> 00:14:08,053 Speaker 2: and you just are so nonchalant, and you can hear it, 295 00:14:08,333 --> 00:14:10,253 Speaker 2: even when you hear little snippets of him interacting with 296 00:14:10,293 --> 00:14:12,453 Speaker 2: teammates like Dylan Walker on the field, like he's just 297 00:14:13,093 --> 00:14:17,813 Speaker 2: so composed and nothing seems to rattle him. And actually, 298 00:14:18,573 --> 00:14:21,053 Speaker 2: that is kind of the person that you want in 299 00:14:21,133 --> 00:14:23,333 Speaker 2: one of those key roles for your team in terms 300 00:14:23,373 --> 00:14:25,693 Speaker 2: of because he will just calm everyone else down. It 301 00:14:25,893 --> 00:14:28,773 Speaker 2: just doesn't feel the pressure, even when his teammates maybe 302 00:14:28,813 --> 00:14:30,453 Speaker 2: are a little bit rattled. And we've seen at times 303 00:14:30,493 --> 00:14:32,373 Speaker 2: during the year we have seen like on field arguments 304 00:14:32,653 --> 00:14:35,133 Speaker 2: between players. Just having a guy like him steering the 305 00:14:35,213 --> 00:14:37,613 Speaker 2: ship surely helps to calm everyone else down. 306 00:14:38,693 --> 00:14:41,973 Speaker 4: He's a very positive guy, and you see that he's 307 00:14:42,093 --> 00:14:44,893 Speaker 4: very positive. And the other thing that players and the 308 00:14:44,973 --> 00:14:49,413 Speaker 4: coach talks about, he's a really it's a really big competitor. 309 00:14:49,533 --> 00:14:52,693 Speaker 4: So he's one of the most competitive guys, which is interesting. 310 00:14:52,973 --> 00:14:54,613 Speaker 4: You talked about how relaxed he is, but he's also 311 00:14:54,693 --> 00:14:58,333 Speaker 4: super competitive at training in games, really wants to win. 312 00:14:58,693 --> 00:15:01,133 Speaker 4: It sort of shows through how he plays, so I 313 00:15:01,213 --> 00:15:03,813 Speaker 4: guess players want to follow him, you know. 314 00:15:05,013 --> 00:15:07,693 Speaker 3: And so far, so good. He's turning into. 315 00:15:09,613 --> 00:15:13,373 Speaker 4: Just a fantastic decision, a fantastic recruit, isn't he Because 316 00:15:13,653 --> 00:15:16,333 Speaker 4: when the Warriors signed him, there were questions it was 317 00:15:16,373 --> 00:15:19,933 Speaker 4: this really good idea, he said, those issues with his 318 00:15:20,053 --> 00:15:23,053 Speaker 4: brain bleed, et cetera, et cetera. You know what's going 319 00:15:23,093 --> 00:15:24,813 Speaker 4: on here, But it's turned into a bit of a 320 00:15:24,853 --> 00:15:25,453 Speaker 4: master stroke. 321 00:15:25,893 --> 00:15:28,093 Speaker 2: All right, Michael Burgess, Let's go through this game in 322 00:15:28,173 --> 00:15:31,333 Speaker 2: a little bit more detail. Firstly, coach Andrew Webster sees 323 00:15:31,373 --> 00:15:35,373 Speaker 2: his players offered a strong response to last weekend's humiliating 324 00:15:35,933 --> 00:15:38,093 Speaker 2: sixty point loss to the Titans. 325 00:15:38,133 --> 00:15:40,933 Speaker 5: The way they've still had that feeling of that embarrassment 326 00:15:40,973 --> 00:15:42,693 Speaker 5: from last week and want to make that right, but 327 00:15:43,053 --> 00:15:44,933 Speaker 5: not letting that define them all week. I think it 328 00:15:45,013 --> 00:15:47,933 Speaker 5: was really important that we put it behind us without 329 00:15:47,973 --> 00:15:49,773 Speaker 5: walking past them. And then all of a sudden you 330 00:15:49,893 --> 00:15:53,453 Speaker 5: go from getting absolutely smashed to rocking up looking confident. 331 00:15:54,733 --> 00:15:57,813 Speaker 2: What a start the Warriors. We've seen them start like 332 00:15:57,893 --> 00:16:00,973 Speaker 2: this at times through this year. The storm one is 333 00:16:00,973 --> 00:16:03,373 Speaker 2: the one that stands out the most. They couldn't capitalize 334 00:16:03,413 --> 00:16:06,053 Speaker 2: on that, But this time the Warriors could have scored 335 00:16:06,053 --> 00:16:07,693 Speaker 2: a lot more than three tries to start this game. 336 00:16:07,693 --> 00:16:11,253 Speaker 2: They probably a couple of opportunities and Brisbane Beay had 337 00:16:11,293 --> 00:16:13,493 Speaker 2: the ball. They seemed to be camped in their own 338 00:16:13,613 --> 00:16:17,613 Speaker 2: twenty meters at times. I mean the pressure that the Warriors. 339 00:16:17,653 --> 00:16:19,893 Speaker 2: I know Brisbane were missing key players, but I was 340 00:16:19,973 --> 00:16:20,733 Speaker 2: really surprised. 341 00:16:21,253 --> 00:16:23,373 Speaker 4: It was remarkable and Brisbane showed a lot of resilience. 342 00:16:23,413 --> 00:16:26,613 Speaker 4: They like you say, they could have probably conceded five tries. 343 00:16:26,653 --> 00:16:30,613 Speaker 4: They defended so well, because I can't remember an onsought 344 00:16:30,653 --> 00:16:33,533 Speaker 4: of that. The Warriors just had so much ball. There 345 00:16:33,573 --> 00:16:36,093 Speaker 4: were repeat sets, there were penalties, there were Broncos errors. 346 00:16:36,973 --> 00:16:39,733 Speaker 4: It was a great start, as you say, they probably 347 00:16:39,733 --> 00:16:42,613 Speaker 4: should have had a couple more tries, but and so 348 00:16:42,733 --> 00:16:46,133 Speaker 4: then there was that Nervey feeling when the Broncos came back, 349 00:16:46,213 --> 00:16:49,093 Speaker 4: got a relatively soft try and could have had another 350 00:16:49,093 --> 00:16:52,133 Speaker 4: one before halftime. But the standard was set from the 351 00:16:52,173 --> 00:16:55,373 Speaker 4: first moment of the game. The Warriors first set on 352 00:16:55,493 --> 00:16:58,453 Speaker 4: set their night. They rolled fifty odd meters and that 353 00:16:58,613 --> 00:17:02,573 Speaker 4: was better than any six tackle sequence they'd had the 354 00:17:02,613 --> 00:17:05,333 Speaker 4: whole weekend, the whole game against the Titans. So you 355 00:17:05,373 --> 00:17:08,293 Speaker 4: could see, right they hear they head at prove a point. 356 00:17:08,773 --> 00:17:11,293 Speaker 4: It were just whether they could could keep going because 357 00:17:11,293 --> 00:17:14,093 Speaker 4: they've had these hot starts against it. It smart against 358 00:17:14,133 --> 00:17:18,293 Speaker 4: the against the Sharks, against the Titans, and against the Storm. 359 00:17:18,413 --> 00:17:21,133 Speaker 3: So that was the thing. Could they nail this one. 360 00:17:21,373 --> 00:17:22,973 Speaker 3: Here's Webster summing up the performance. 361 00:17:23,053 --> 00:17:25,133 Speaker 5: Just overall, until we put there our energy into the 362 00:17:25,213 --> 00:17:28,413 Speaker 5: right things, which was the fence and going after the opposition, 363 00:17:29,013 --> 00:17:31,493 Speaker 5: I think it's pretty clear we still weren't the smartest 364 00:17:31,493 --> 00:17:33,973 Speaker 5: at times, like we made it hard on ourselves. 365 00:17:34,333 --> 00:17:37,133 Speaker 2: He touched on the defense there defensively. I mean, obviously 366 00:17:37,413 --> 00:17:41,733 Speaker 2: they looked like a completely different outfit. It's pleasing, but 367 00:17:41,853 --> 00:17:45,653 Speaker 2: also sort of exacerbates how disappointing the Titan's loss was 368 00:17:45,773 --> 00:17:50,053 Speaker 2: because their attitude was just on a different planet it was. 369 00:17:50,173 --> 00:17:52,693 Speaker 4: I mean, they were really pretty hungry. There were still 370 00:17:52,733 --> 00:17:56,133 Speaker 4: a few moments where they couldn't defend an error, couldn't 371 00:17:56,133 --> 00:17:58,333 Speaker 4: defend things on their line that they'll want to approval 372 00:17:58,373 --> 00:18:00,733 Speaker 4: on that. And that's why Webster Wasn't you notice this 373 00:18:00,853 --> 00:18:03,293 Speaker 4: tone of voice. He wasn't doing cartwheels about this performance. 374 00:18:03,333 --> 00:18:04,933 Speaker 4: He does not want to get carried away because I 375 00:18:04,973 --> 00:18:08,933 Speaker 4: think the fans, the media, even the team have got 376 00:18:08,973 --> 00:18:11,253 Speaker 4: carried away in the past this season and then there's 377 00:18:11,253 --> 00:18:13,693 Speaker 4: been a let down following. So he's a bit wary 378 00:18:13,733 --> 00:18:15,613 Speaker 4: about that. But yeah, it was much improved. I mean, 379 00:18:16,653 --> 00:18:20,693 Speaker 4: let's hope, Nath that the Titans game we look back 380 00:18:20,733 --> 00:18:23,853 Speaker 4: on it, it's just an extremely bad, extremely bad day 381 00:18:23,853 --> 00:18:26,133 Speaker 4: at the office. Let's hope it was just this crazy 382 00:18:26,213 --> 00:18:29,973 Speaker 4: blip where everything that could go on wrong went wrong 383 00:18:30,853 --> 00:18:33,813 Speaker 4: and not you know, something that we're going to be 384 00:18:33,933 --> 00:18:36,213 Speaker 4: talking about at the end of the season. About you know, 385 00:18:37,293 --> 00:18:40,893 Speaker 4: five ways the Warriors went downhill in twenty twenty four. 386 00:18:40,973 --> 00:18:44,133 Speaker 4: Let's hope it is a just a one crazy day. 387 00:18:44,333 --> 00:18:47,773 Speaker 2: Well what frustrated me after that Titans game, and we 388 00:18:47,853 --> 00:18:50,333 Speaker 2: won't label this too much, but the fact that they 389 00:18:50,653 --> 00:18:53,453 Speaker 2: conceded sixty six points and then so much of the 390 00:18:53,533 --> 00:18:57,373 Speaker 2: talk afterwards was about Sean Johnson's kicking. Like, to me, 391 00:18:57,653 --> 00:19:00,253 Speaker 2: it's like returning home to find your houses on fire 392 00:19:00,373 --> 00:19:02,293 Speaker 2: and saying, oh shoot, I forgot to put the bins out, 393 00:19:02,533 --> 00:19:06,013 Speaker 2: Like there's a bigger issue here than Seawan Johnson's kicking. 394 00:19:06,053 --> 00:19:08,093 Speaker 2: And I just hated how much crap he copped after that. 395 00:19:09,053 --> 00:19:10,893 Speaker 2: He went up on Instagram. Did you see the Instagram 396 00:19:10,893 --> 00:19:14,053 Speaker 2: post he put up talking about the hate he received 397 00:19:14,093 --> 00:19:14,693 Speaker 2: after that game? 398 00:19:15,133 --> 00:19:15,173 Speaker 1: No? 399 00:19:15,733 --> 00:19:19,653 Speaker 4: No, but it doesn't surprise me, and it is quite amazing. 400 00:19:20,173 --> 00:19:23,693 Speaker 4: Andrew Webster talked about this last week, as did some 401 00:19:23,813 --> 00:19:27,773 Speaker 4: of the players. There's just a crazy focus on him 402 00:19:28,653 --> 00:19:31,373 Speaker 4: no matter what. So when they win, he maybe sometimes 403 00:19:31,453 --> 00:19:34,573 Speaker 4: gets too much credit, although last year is amazing, and 404 00:19:34,693 --> 00:19:37,613 Speaker 4: then when they have a bad day, it's just all 405 00:19:37,693 --> 00:19:38,893 Speaker 4: about Sean. 406 00:19:39,453 --> 00:19:40,133 Speaker 3: I don't really get it. 407 00:19:40,173 --> 00:19:42,853 Speaker 4: I don't know why there's still that hatred out there 408 00:19:42,893 --> 00:19:45,533 Speaker 4: because he you know, what he did last year was 409 00:19:45,573 --> 00:19:47,893 Speaker 4: incredible and I would have thought that would have killed 410 00:19:47,933 --> 00:19:51,693 Speaker 4: off all of that. So yeah, I mean it's just 411 00:19:52,293 --> 00:19:53,693 Speaker 4: it's pretty crazy. 412 00:19:53,893 --> 00:19:56,653 Speaker 2: Post contact meters was a big highlight. Six hundred and 413 00:19:56,893 --> 00:19:59,133 Speaker 2: fifteen for the Warriors compared to just three hundred and 414 00:19:59,173 --> 00:20:02,853 Speaker 2: twenty seven for the Broncos, So that again exemplifies how 415 00:20:02,933 --> 00:20:06,453 Speaker 2: much more resilient they were on defense. But Mitch Barnett, 416 00:20:06,533 --> 00:20:09,053 Speaker 2: Dylan Walker, Kirk cape Pole all with huge games. It 417 00:20:09,133 --> 00:20:12,613 Speaker 2: really shows what a difference having Barnett and Capewell back 418 00:20:12,693 --> 00:20:15,173 Speaker 2: in that side. Obviously missed in the Titans game, but 419 00:20:15,293 --> 00:20:16,973 Speaker 2: just having their presence on the field and what they're 420 00:20:17,013 --> 00:20:17,933 Speaker 2: able to do in contact. 421 00:20:19,053 --> 00:20:22,133 Speaker 4: Barnett was amazing. Yeah, he's still on track to be 422 00:20:22,933 --> 00:20:25,253 Speaker 4: Player of the Year. He's having a remarkable season. He's 423 00:20:25,533 --> 00:20:27,813 Speaker 4: sort of the guy they looked to. And then Walker's 424 00:20:27,853 --> 00:20:31,853 Speaker 4: got this really special connection with Tomty and just play 425 00:20:31,933 --> 00:20:34,893 Speaker 4: so well. They play so well together. He made some 426 00:20:34,933 --> 00:20:37,733 Speaker 4: big runs of course, to lead to give them empetus 427 00:20:37,773 --> 00:20:40,773 Speaker 4: towards tries, which really highlights what a mistake it was 428 00:20:40,853 --> 00:20:43,413 Speaker 4: to put him in the second row against the Titans, 429 00:20:43,413 --> 00:20:46,773 Speaker 4: because he just didn't didn't suit the second row at all. 430 00:20:47,133 --> 00:20:49,453 Speaker 3: Adam was good as well. We can't forget Adam. 431 00:20:49,573 --> 00:20:53,573 Speaker 4: I thought he was excellent after being pretty anonymous against 432 00:20:53,573 --> 00:20:55,573 Speaker 4: the Titans. So all the Fords stood up, which of 433 00:20:55,653 --> 00:20:57,653 Speaker 4: course is the platform, and a lot of the backs, 434 00:20:57,813 --> 00:20:59,693 Speaker 4: where Roger I thought had one of those better games 435 00:21:00,213 --> 00:21:02,493 Speaker 4: this season, chance was back into it. 436 00:21:02,573 --> 00:21:03,733 Speaker 3: Dellen made a really good return. 437 00:21:04,533 --> 00:21:06,253 Speaker 4: There was a lot to like, but we have to 438 00:21:07,093 --> 00:21:09,733 Speaker 4: let's not forget and I thought to Marty made a 439 00:21:09,773 --> 00:21:11,413 Speaker 4: good point when I spoke to him, he said, look, 440 00:21:13,173 --> 00:21:14,973 Speaker 4: the Broncos were missing a few players, you know. To 441 00:21:15,053 --> 00:21:18,093 Speaker 4: Marty said this, he said, if Adam Reynolds was there tonight, 442 00:21:18,453 --> 00:21:20,893 Speaker 4: he would have made a difference with something. So we've 443 00:21:20,933 --> 00:21:24,933 Speaker 4: got to keep that in mind. I think the Brisbane 444 00:21:25,013 --> 00:21:28,813 Speaker 4: had seven on the field at Mount Smart from the 445 00:21:28,973 --> 00:21:31,653 Speaker 4: from the seventeen that played in the prelim final last year. 446 00:21:32,013 --> 00:21:34,053 Speaker 4: It's in court, there's too many. You know, some players 447 00:21:34,093 --> 00:21:37,253 Speaker 4: are left and all that. But when you talk about Paynehaspat, Carrigan, 448 00:21:37,333 --> 00:21:41,253 Speaker 4: Reese w Wash, Adam Reynolds, it's a different Broncos team. 449 00:21:41,373 --> 00:21:43,853 Speaker 4: So I think that's partly why Andrew Webbs is not 450 00:21:43,893 --> 00:21:46,853 Speaker 4: getting carried away. Really good performance, but a lot more 451 00:21:46,893 --> 00:21:47,333 Speaker 4: still to do. 452 00:21:47,693 --> 00:21:49,973 Speaker 2: Yeah, the Broncos, well this season has taken an absolute 453 00:21:50,053 --> 00:21:53,573 Speaker 2: dive thinking to their fourth straight loss, but coach Kevin 454 00:21:53,653 --> 00:21:57,133 Speaker 2: Walters isn't too worried because he believes Auckland's a tough 455 00:21:57,173 --> 00:21:58,413 Speaker 2: place to earn points. 456 00:21:58,253 --> 00:22:00,333 Speaker 5: Pretty hostile environment for a lot of these guys who 457 00:22:00,413 --> 00:22:01,333 Speaker 5: haven't played there. 458 00:22:01,573 --> 00:22:04,453 Speaker 7: We've got a huge injury crisis at the club, lost 459 00:22:04,493 --> 00:22:06,773 Speaker 7: too more tonight, so there's lots of things that sort 460 00:22:06,773 --> 00:22:07,413 Speaker 7: of went against us. 461 00:22:07,413 --> 00:22:09,213 Speaker 3: But I don't like sort of make and too many excuses. 462 00:22:10,013 --> 00:22:12,533 Speaker 3: I don't like making excuses. But here's four excuses. 463 00:22:13,173 --> 00:22:15,893 Speaker 4: Well, they were I mean to have a guy break 464 00:22:15,973 --> 00:22:17,853 Speaker 4: his arm in the first ten minutes, to lose another guy, 465 00:22:17,933 --> 00:22:20,253 Speaker 4: so they're playing with the two men interchange. They've already left, 466 00:22:20,893 --> 00:22:23,093 Speaker 4: as I mentioned, some of their big guns at home, 467 00:22:23,133 --> 00:22:25,573 Speaker 4: which was their choice but probably right because you can't 468 00:22:26,013 --> 00:22:28,053 Speaker 4: expect them to fly to Auckland after an Origin game 469 00:22:28,093 --> 00:22:28,493 Speaker 4: in Melbourn. 470 00:22:28,533 --> 00:22:30,933 Speaker 3: Da Da da da da. So it's a tough time 471 00:22:31,013 --> 00:22:31,773 Speaker 3: for the Broncos. 472 00:22:31,853 --> 00:22:33,693 Speaker 4: It's a bit like what the Warriors were going through 473 00:22:34,013 --> 00:22:35,973 Speaker 4: about two months ago when they seemed to be getting 474 00:22:36,493 --> 00:22:39,973 Speaker 4: two injuries every week. And that's another bonus out of 475 00:22:40,013 --> 00:22:42,573 Speaker 4: Saturday was that there were no injuries as far as 476 00:22:42,653 --> 00:22:45,253 Speaker 4: we know, so it felt like everything kind of went 477 00:22:45,373 --> 00:22:48,613 Speaker 4: to script for a change. And we haven't even talked 478 00:22:48,613 --> 00:22:51,933 Speaker 4: about two of those tries in the second half. I 479 00:22:51,973 --> 00:22:54,693 Speaker 4: thought the last three tries, they're all excellent in their 480 00:22:54,693 --> 00:22:58,213 Speaker 4: own way. You had Roger running off Tomorday with a 481 00:22:58,253 --> 00:23:01,373 Speaker 4: beautifully time grubber that we just haven't seen much of 482 00:23:01,413 --> 00:23:04,053 Speaker 4: that this year and just so well timed that the 483 00:23:04,133 --> 00:23:06,533 Speaker 4: defenders couldn't get near it on the fourth tackle. And 484 00:23:06,613 --> 00:23:10,133 Speaker 4: then the Dallen try with a perfect kick and Dallan 485 00:23:10,173 --> 00:23:12,093 Speaker 4: had what twenty meters It was like he was a 486 00:23:13,013 --> 00:23:14,573 Speaker 4: you know, on a runway. 487 00:23:14,613 --> 00:23:18,453 Speaker 3: The way he took off. Just beautiful, just beautiful. 488 00:23:19,213 --> 00:23:22,493 Speaker 2: Big League podcast, Right, It does get tougher for the Warriors. 489 00:23:22,533 --> 00:23:25,933 Speaker 2: They visit the Bulldogs on Saturday, who are stringing wins 490 00:23:25,973 --> 00:23:28,693 Speaker 2: together for the first time in what a decade. The 491 00:23:28,773 --> 00:23:34,413 Speaker 2: Bulldogs upset now now, oh, I can't resist. The Bulldogs 492 00:23:34,493 --> 00:23:39,013 Speaker 2: upset the Sharks though in Golden Point last round fifteen fourteen, 493 00:23:39,093 --> 00:23:43,213 Speaker 2: Matt Burdon slotting the field goal. They set fifth on 494 00:23:43,413 --> 00:23:46,933 Speaker 2: the ladder with eight wins, seven losses. Who would have 495 00:23:47,013 --> 00:23:51,133 Speaker 2: thought Kurt Man was suspension, Jacob Preston and Daniel Suluka 496 00:23:51,413 --> 00:23:57,653 Speaker 2: for Fitta with injuries, but all are expected back this week. Burge, 497 00:23:57,773 --> 00:23:59,973 Speaker 2: what are the Bulldogs doing so well this year that 498 00:24:00,133 --> 00:24:03,213 Speaker 2: they weren't doing well before Josh Curran. 499 00:24:03,493 --> 00:24:04,093 Speaker 3: Got to be him? 500 00:24:04,453 --> 00:24:06,333 Speaker 4: Yeah, well, I know he's one of your favorite players 501 00:24:06,373 --> 00:24:07,693 Speaker 4: and he's been going really well. 502 00:24:08,973 --> 00:24:11,093 Speaker 3: You know, he's a dynamic runner on the edge. 503 00:24:12,693 --> 00:24:14,613 Speaker 4: Obviously, they're defending a lot better than they were, but 504 00:24:14,813 --> 00:24:17,573 Speaker 4: I just can see a real connection that you couldn't 505 00:24:17,613 --> 00:24:20,853 Speaker 4: see last year. They look like, you know, they look 506 00:24:20,893 --> 00:24:22,573 Speaker 4: like a bunch of individuals, I guess the best way 507 00:24:22,613 --> 00:24:24,893 Speaker 4: to sum it up, whereas it's a cliche, but they 508 00:24:24,933 --> 00:24:28,013 Speaker 4: really look like a team. They've won a lot of games, 509 00:24:28,053 --> 00:24:30,173 Speaker 4: but even some of the games have lost have been close, 510 00:24:30,333 --> 00:24:33,573 Speaker 4: so they're really in the game and that that makes 511 00:24:33,613 --> 00:24:34,413 Speaker 4: you play a lot better. 512 00:24:34,893 --> 00:24:38,253 Speaker 3: And I'm pretty sure their home record this year is 513 00:24:38,453 --> 00:24:39,453 Speaker 3: seven and zero. 514 00:24:39,773 --> 00:24:42,253 Speaker 4: I'm pretty sure they've got one hundred percent record at home, 515 00:24:42,973 --> 00:24:46,973 Speaker 4: which makes the thought of going there, you know, pretty daunting. 516 00:24:47,293 --> 00:24:51,853 Speaker 4: As well, the Warriors don't have an amazing record when 517 00:24:51,893 --> 00:24:56,373 Speaker 4: they play the Broncos in Sydney. I still remember some 518 00:24:56,573 --> 00:25:00,853 Speaker 4: listeners remember too. In twenty eighteen under Stephen Kearney, the 519 00:25:00,933 --> 00:25:05,293 Speaker 4: Warriors were having a fantastic season, of course, with a 520 00:25:05,333 --> 00:25:07,613 Speaker 4: big run in the top eight, right up near the 521 00:25:07,653 --> 00:25:10,773 Speaker 4: top four x and they went to Sydney and won 522 00:25:10,813 --> 00:25:14,413 Speaker 4: there with about three rounds to go, and they lost 523 00:25:14,453 --> 00:25:18,653 Speaker 4: to a really unheralded Bulldogs team lost that game, and 524 00:25:18,773 --> 00:25:20,333 Speaker 4: that was the difference really in the end between the 525 00:25:20,453 --> 00:25:22,733 Speaker 4: finished eighth and if they'd won that game against the Bulldogs, 526 00:25:22,773 --> 00:25:27,133 Speaker 4: they would have finished fourth, third, fifth. So so yeah, 527 00:25:27,133 --> 00:25:28,973 Speaker 4: it's been it's been tough in the past. It will 528 00:25:29,013 --> 00:25:32,813 Speaker 4: be very tough. But they're going there with confidence, they're 529 00:25:32,813 --> 00:25:35,333 Speaker 4: going there on a bit of a high, so obviously 530 00:25:35,813 --> 00:25:37,213 Speaker 4: they'll give them really good go wonn't they. 531 00:25:37,493 --> 00:25:38,053 Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, just. 532 00:25:38,053 --> 00:25:40,013 Speaker 2: Confirming what you said before, I've just double chick. Yes, 533 00:25:40,053 --> 00:25:42,893 Speaker 2: they are unbeaten at home this year and that actually 534 00:25:42,933 --> 00:25:46,773 Speaker 2: includes a preseason victory of the Melbourne Storm. We'll take that. 535 00:25:47,093 --> 00:25:50,133 Speaker 2: Will take from that what you will. But you mentioned before, 536 00:25:50,213 --> 00:25:53,053 Speaker 2: no injuries that we know of so far from the game. 537 00:25:53,173 --> 00:25:56,173 Speaker 2: But Roger twy Vasischek obviously has returned from a hamstring injury. 538 00:25:56,293 --> 00:25:58,933 Speaker 2: He talked about it after the game. Is he still 539 00:25:59,013 --> 00:26:00,773 Speaker 2: managing this? This is what he said after the game. 540 00:26:00,813 --> 00:26:01,693 Speaker 6: It's going to be ongoing. 541 00:26:02,133 --> 00:26:04,413 Speaker 9: I think what's the major sort of factor is my 542 00:26:04,493 --> 00:26:06,933 Speaker 9: age and trying to keep up with a lot of 543 00:26:06,973 --> 00:26:08,813 Speaker 9: these boys in the game. So and know, I've got 544 00:26:08,893 --> 00:26:11,373 Speaker 9: to manage everything like twenty one year old anymore. So 545 00:26:11,373 --> 00:26:13,733 Speaker 9: I got to make sure I just do what I can, 546 00:26:13,853 --> 00:26:14,413 Speaker 9: not try. 547 00:26:14,213 --> 00:26:16,133 Speaker 3: And do everything. What do we take from that? 548 00:26:16,693 --> 00:26:18,373 Speaker 4: Yeah, I was a bit surprised because I asked him 549 00:26:18,373 --> 00:26:20,733 Speaker 4: because I'd seen that. You would have noticed too, the 550 00:26:20,813 --> 00:26:24,293 Speaker 4: massive strapping on his Yeah, it was on his thigh. 551 00:26:25,093 --> 00:26:27,293 Speaker 4: So I asked him and he said, yeah, I've got 552 00:26:27,333 --> 00:26:30,053 Speaker 4: to manage it or et cetera, et cetera. So I 553 00:26:30,133 --> 00:26:33,253 Speaker 4: guess he's got to be careful, probably careful with training, 554 00:26:33,573 --> 00:26:35,213 Speaker 4: make sure it warms up really well, because you know 555 00:26:35,253 --> 00:26:38,813 Speaker 4: what hamstrings are like, even US weekend Warriors. It's not 556 00:26:38,973 --> 00:26:41,173 Speaker 4: nice when you've got something you think, oh, that's a 557 00:26:41,213 --> 00:26:43,053 Speaker 4: bit tight, and then it can just go at any time. 558 00:26:43,173 --> 00:26:45,253 Speaker 4: So it's got to be careful because he's such an 559 00:26:45,293 --> 00:26:48,813 Speaker 4: explosive player. But they need him, and obviously they are 560 00:26:48,893 --> 00:26:51,973 Speaker 4: happy that it's not just going to go but I 561 00:26:52,053 --> 00:26:53,613 Speaker 4: did hear at the time when he did it. I 562 00:26:53,693 --> 00:26:56,813 Speaker 4: think if you remember Webster saying, it was a more 563 00:26:57,053 --> 00:27:00,333 Speaker 4: more serious hamstring than you know normal, Like some of them, 564 00:27:00,413 --> 00:27:02,173 Speaker 4: what you get you back in three weeks or four, 565 00:27:02,733 --> 00:27:04,893 Speaker 4: and he took about six weeks. So we have to 566 00:27:04,973 --> 00:27:07,213 Speaker 4: keep an eye on that and just hope that he 567 00:27:07,293 --> 00:27:09,293 Speaker 4: doesn't fall over again, because I think if he gets 568 00:27:09,293 --> 00:27:11,693 Speaker 4: a few games, I thought there was one of his 569 00:27:11,773 --> 00:27:15,173 Speaker 4: better games at center this season. I know he's played 570 00:27:15,733 --> 00:27:17,533 Speaker 4: a lot, you know, he's played fall back, and he's 571 00:27:17,533 --> 00:27:18,693 Speaker 4: had a game on the wing, but I thought that 572 00:27:18,813 --> 00:27:21,573 Speaker 4: was one of his better ones in that area of 573 00:27:21,573 --> 00:27:22,133 Speaker 4: the back line. 574 00:27:22,773 --> 00:27:25,933 Speaker 3: So if he can stay on the field and get 575 00:27:26,013 --> 00:27:29,173 Speaker 3: some confidence, that's kind of what we've all been hoping for. 576 00:27:29,693 --> 00:27:32,973 Speaker 2: Ali Lautawa a chance to return also this week after 577 00:27:33,053 --> 00:27:35,173 Speaker 2: breaking his ankle a few weeks ago. 578 00:27:38,493 --> 00:27:42,813 Speaker 1: The Big League Podcast on the Warriors, Bad Wagons since 579 00:27:42,933 --> 00:27:49,333 Speaker 1: day one. The Big League Podcast for the biggest league fans. 580 00:27:50,093 --> 00:27:53,733 Speaker 2: Okay Birds quick fire predictions to round out episode fifty. 581 00:27:53,773 --> 00:27:57,773 Speaker 2: Congratulations by the way, Episode fifty of The Big League 582 00:27:57,813 --> 00:27:59,173 Speaker 2: Podcast been going for a year and a half. 583 00:27:59,293 --> 00:28:01,493 Speaker 3: Now you're on seventy tips for the year. 584 00:28:01,533 --> 00:28:06,973 Speaker 2: I am on sixty five both appalling efforts Eels versus Rabbidos. 585 00:28:08,413 --> 00:28:10,533 Speaker 4: This Rabbits toss the coin. I'm going to go with 586 00:28:10,573 --> 00:28:14,413 Speaker 4: the Eels. I thought they were really unlucky against the Knights. 587 00:28:14,533 --> 00:28:15,933 Speaker 4: I felt for them. I think they were winning with 588 00:28:15,973 --> 00:28:19,973 Speaker 4: what three minutes to go in Newcastle, so yeah, that 589 00:28:20,093 --> 00:28:23,653 Speaker 4: was that was tough. I think they'll they'll bounce back. 590 00:28:23,653 --> 00:28:25,853 Speaker 4: Although the rabbit O's are obviously a different rabbit as 591 00:28:25,893 --> 00:28:29,893 Speaker 4: to what we saw a few weeks ago there, they're 592 00:28:29,933 --> 00:28:32,893 Speaker 4: definitely also back to their best. So but I'll go 593 00:28:32,973 --> 00:28:33,493 Speaker 4: to the Eels here. 594 00:28:34,893 --> 00:28:37,693 Speaker 2: Rabbito's coming off the bibe, but you're right, they're back 595 00:28:37,813 --> 00:28:39,813 Speaker 2: apparently trail in origin as well. 596 00:28:40,053 --> 00:28:40,533 Speaker 3: How good? 597 00:28:40,893 --> 00:28:43,253 Speaker 2: Yeah, Southwest, we do get that Decider Birge, which I 598 00:28:43,333 --> 00:28:45,693 Speaker 2: know you wanted and I obviously wanted to as a 599 00:28:45,733 --> 00:28:48,333 Speaker 2: Blues fan. So that's going to be Titanic at sun 600 00:28:48,413 --> 00:28:49,453 Speaker 2: Corp Stadium. 601 00:28:49,533 --> 00:28:52,093 Speaker 4: I wanted to Decider, but with a caveat that as 602 00:28:52,133 --> 00:28:55,333 Speaker 4: long as Queensland win it. So I hope pants, I 603 00:28:55,333 --> 00:28:57,573 Speaker 4: hope that's been Queensland and mud they're gone. I was 604 00:28:57,613 --> 00:29:00,373 Speaker 4: feeling over, I was feeling really happy for Michael maguire. 605 00:29:00,413 --> 00:29:02,013 Speaker 4: And this is great, this is what I wanted. But 606 00:29:02,093 --> 00:29:03,253 Speaker 4: then at the end, I was like, shit, but what 607 00:29:03,333 --> 00:29:05,013 Speaker 4: if they win the whole series? That won't be good 608 00:29:05,013 --> 00:29:06,613 Speaker 4: at all. But now and you said, I look really good. 609 00:29:06,653 --> 00:29:11,253 Speaker 4: They looked that Ford just looked, just looked brutal. But 610 00:29:12,413 --> 00:29:14,573 Speaker 4: you know they just got a roll on. It's so 611 00:29:14,653 --> 00:29:16,493 Speaker 4: hard to defend with repeat sets and all that, So 612 00:29:17,573 --> 00:29:18,493 Speaker 4: Queen's don't to be all right. 613 00:29:18,853 --> 00:29:22,213 Speaker 3: Sharks Titans, Sharks. I like the I like the Sharks. 614 00:29:22,253 --> 00:29:26,453 Speaker 4: Here, very very tough result for them against the Bulldogs, 615 00:29:26,493 --> 00:29:29,573 Speaker 4: and I'm sure they'll they'll bounce back, but they had 616 00:29:29,573 --> 00:29:31,373 Speaker 4: been getting the wobbles a bit this season. The Titans 617 00:29:31,413 --> 00:29:33,333 Speaker 4: are tricky, but yeah, the Sharks and Crenella should be 618 00:29:33,773 --> 00:29:34,413 Speaker 4: should be too good. 619 00:29:34,613 --> 00:29:37,213 Speaker 3: They had a fiery encounter with the Bulldogs. 620 00:29:37,213 --> 00:29:40,773 Speaker 2: I saw Nicko Hines obviously obviously the Sharks missed out 621 00:29:40,813 --> 00:29:42,773 Speaker 2: on their field goal attempt and then Matt Burton slotted 622 00:29:42,813 --> 00:29:44,973 Speaker 2: it for the Bulldogs. Nickerhmes coppying a bit of heat 623 00:29:45,493 --> 00:29:47,173 Speaker 2: from fans as well. But I will agree with you 624 00:29:47,293 --> 00:29:50,973 Speaker 2: that the Sharks bounce back. Broncos Panthers in Brisbane. Oh, 625 00:29:51,053 --> 00:29:52,893 Speaker 2: I don't know, both coming off losses. 626 00:29:53,573 --> 00:29:53,973 Speaker 3: I don't know. 627 00:29:55,973 --> 00:29:58,173 Speaker 4: You think the Broncos will be desperate and they will 628 00:29:58,253 --> 00:30:01,773 Speaker 4: have some of their players back, obviously, their origin boys back, 629 00:30:02,813 --> 00:30:07,013 Speaker 4: including Reese Walsh, payinghas Carrigan. So I will go with 630 00:30:07,133 --> 00:30:12,213 Speaker 4: the Broncos just because they can't afford to go to 631 00:30:12,333 --> 00:30:14,093 Speaker 4: go five in a row and they can't afford to 632 00:30:14,133 --> 00:30:17,493 Speaker 4: lose at home, surely, but it'll be tight going to 633 00:30:17,533 --> 00:30:21,613 Speaker 4: back the Panthers here. Bulldogs Warriors. Yeah, this is a 634 00:30:21,693 --> 00:30:24,733 Speaker 4: really hard one. The Bulldogs, as we said, unbeaten at home, 635 00:30:24,853 --> 00:30:28,573 Speaker 4: been going so well. They've got some really dangerous players 636 00:30:28,573 --> 00:30:31,453 Speaker 4: in the back line, some good, really hard working pack 637 00:30:31,573 --> 00:30:35,293 Speaker 4: with some big bodies as well, so it'll be very 638 00:30:35,333 --> 00:30:38,933 Speaker 4: tough for the Warriors, but they they are due to 639 00:30:39,013 --> 00:30:41,413 Speaker 4: play well in Sydney, it's been a while. I think 640 00:30:41,653 --> 00:30:44,413 Speaker 4: it'll suit them playing in the afternoon, although that was 641 00:30:44,533 --> 00:30:46,413 Speaker 4: my great theory for the Titans match and look where 642 00:30:46,413 --> 00:30:50,093 Speaker 4: that ended up. So but yeah, it's a three o'clock 643 00:30:50,133 --> 00:30:51,973 Speaker 4: game in Sydney, which won't be as hot as the 644 00:30:52,053 --> 00:30:54,613 Speaker 4: Gold Coast. And I also like the fact that, if 645 00:30:54,613 --> 00:30:57,813 Speaker 4: I'm not mistaken, the game is at a Core Stadium, 646 00:30:57,813 --> 00:31:00,813 Speaker 4: which is the big stadium they use for the Grand 647 00:31:00,853 --> 00:31:01,493 Speaker 4: Final venue. 648 00:31:02,253 --> 00:31:03,573 Speaker 3: So I think that kind of works. 649 00:31:03,413 --> 00:31:06,253 Speaker 4: In the warriors phase because it's not exactly an intimidating atmosphere. 650 00:31:06,253 --> 00:31:08,213 Speaker 4: They'll have thirty thousand people there, but it's a big, 651 00:31:08,573 --> 00:31:12,053 Speaker 4: big stadium, it's not it won't be hostile. They'll be 652 00:31:12,053 --> 00:31:14,213 Speaker 4: a few key Wei was there. So adding all that together, 653 00:31:14,373 --> 00:31:18,293 Speaker 4: I can see a warriors are warriors when here. And 654 00:31:18,333 --> 00:31:20,453 Speaker 4: obviously we've got to be optimistic after what they did 655 00:31:20,493 --> 00:31:26,053 Speaker 4: against the Broncos, surely they've got to get this done. Tigers, Storm, Storm, 656 00:31:26,213 --> 00:31:29,213 Speaker 4: Storm just keep on rolling. They just they're really good 657 00:31:31,053 --> 00:31:31,893 Speaker 4: Nunderstan anything else. 658 00:31:32,053 --> 00:31:37,653 Speaker 2: It's great analysis, Cowboys, Is that really the best you've got? 659 00:31:38,333 --> 00:31:40,253 Speaker 2: The Storm are really I don't think you need they're 660 00:31:40,293 --> 00:31:40,733 Speaker 2: really good. 661 00:31:40,933 --> 00:31:43,933 Speaker 4: Is that the best you've got out? Is this really 662 00:31:44,013 --> 00:31:47,093 Speaker 4: expert analysis? I'll go for a smoky here. I will 663 00:31:47,173 --> 00:31:51,733 Speaker 4: go for the Cowboys at home. They've been up and down, 664 00:31:51,813 --> 00:31:54,573 Speaker 4: but it is a it is a tough trip. The 665 00:31:54,653 --> 00:31:57,293 Speaker 4: Seagles will have their origin boys back, but that would 666 00:31:57,293 --> 00:31:58,853 Speaker 4: have taken a bit out of them. So my theory 667 00:31:58,933 --> 00:32:02,253 Speaker 4: is that North Queensland will will get this job done. 668 00:32:02,493 --> 00:32:05,773 Speaker 4: Otherwise they're in a bit of a hole as well. 669 00:32:05,853 --> 00:32:06,293 Speaker 3: This season. 670 00:32:07,053 --> 00:32:09,613 Speaker 2: Well, see North Queens got the job done against the 671 00:32:09,693 --> 00:32:13,093 Speaker 2: Panthers obviously just gone in the round. But I'm going 672 00:32:13,173 --> 00:32:14,893 Speaker 2: to go for the Seagles here because they're coming off 673 00:32:14,933 --> 00:32:18,013 Speaker 2: the bike and you're right, they're getting those origin players back, 674 00:32:18,093 --> 00:32:21,293 Speaker 2: so I think they should get the job done. 675 00:32:21,693 --> 00:32:24,653 Speaker 4: Roosters versus the Dragons Rooster Dragons, Yeah, it's got to 676 00:32:24,693 --> 00:32:26,933 Speaker 4: be the Bondlow Boys here. I would have thought Dragons 677 00:32:27,853 --> 00:32:30,893 Speaker 4: coming in some form. Again, impressive over the Dolphins, who 678 00:32:30,973 --> 00:32:35,613 Speaker 4: quite often struggle in Sydney. But yeah, the Roosters on paper, 679 00:32:35,653 --> 00:32:38,053 Speaker 4: they've just got a much better roster and surely that 680 00:32:38,133 --> 00:32:39,573 Speaker 4: they will be the way it goes. Although the Dragons 681 00:32:39,613 --> 00:32:40,893 Speaker 4: do have a good four pack so you can never 682 00:32:40,933 --> 00:32:42,133 Speaker 4: count them out. But Roosters for me. 683 00:32:43,053 --> 00:32:45,293 Speaker 3: And finally, Raiders versus the Knights. 684 00:32:45,853 --> 00:32:48,693 Speaker 4: Yeah, the poorer Raiders. I thought they gave a really 685 00:32:49,853 --> 00:32:53,933 Speaker 4: impressive account. Impressive impressive account of themselves against the storm, 686 00:32:54,613 --> 00:32:56,493 Speaker 4: so the gutsy if the storm had to really work 687 00:32:56,533 --> 00:32:59,493 Speaker 4: for that. So the Raiders they're still got they've still 688 00:32:59,533 --> 00:33:01,733 Speaker 4: got hopes this year. They're still you know, they're just 689 00:33:01,813 --> 00:33:05,253 Speaker 4: such a I guess the hot and cold team. When 690 00:33:05,253 --> 00:33:07,933 Speaker 4: they're hot, they're really really good. I think they will 691 00:33:08,733 --> 00:33:13,053 Speaker 4: be too good for the nights. The Nights are more 692 00:33:13,093 --> 00:33:15,693 Speaker 4: of a tradesman type team begetting the job done. But yeah, 693 00:33:15,773 --> 00:33:17,373 Speaker 4: I'll bet the raiders here in Canberra. 694 00:33:18,013 --> 00:33:20,253 Speaker 2: I'm gonna a lot of disagreements this week, but this 695 00:33:20,293 --> 00:33:21,973 Speaker 2: could be the rounds where I pull it back and 696 00:33:22,293 --> 00:33:22,773 Speaker 2: go ahead. 697 00:33:22,813 --> 00:33:25,133 Speaker 3: But please follow and rate the podcast. 698 00:33:25,133 --> 00:33:27,013 Speaker 2: Thank you Michael Burgas for your time, your wisdom, and 699 00:33:27,133 --> 00:33:29,653 Speaker 2: you're inside episode fifty.
