Speaker 2: Welcome back to the Final week.
Speaker 1: Depression started. I stablished are not working. I stablished you're
Speaker 1: not working. Depression started already, so I'm loving it. What
Speaker 1: a week? What a week?
Speaker 2: And hey on, oh so.
Speaker 4: Happy our only grand finalists the moment.
Speaker 2: You, George were the printingste They're nice tucked in in
Speaker 2: the can, in the can, undergo in the can. In
Speaker 2: the final week Storm versus Bronx, is it?
Speaker 1: Yeah, what a great match.
Speaker 4: We're talking about it later, but what what it was
Speaker 4: a good match?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 1: You get away great in.
Speaker 2: The week, Michael.
Speaker 1: Thing of the week is.
Speaker 4: Real PA Player of the Year fourth time in a row,
Speaker 4: fourth time now is James de Disco. The only person
Speaker 4: who's done that before is Jonathan first will done to Teddy.
Speaker 4: So one thing I like about this one is he's
Speaker 4: thirty two years old. A couple of years ago ron
Speaker 4: had him as retired. A lot of teams are quick
Speaker 4: to get rid of players once they hit thirty. They think,
Speaker 4: you know, they're too old at our cars or what's
Speaker 4: his name? The other guy that we got King Gutho's
Speaker 4: and whatever as since they hit thirty, they're too old,
Speaker 4: let's get rid of it, and they've lost his speed. Well,
Speaker 4: Teddy just goes to show that no matter how old
Speaker 4: you are, you can still be a good player. And
Speaker 4: that guy's all class. And he's had a worker team
Speaker 4: than other years. He's had better teams that he's played
Speaker 4: for and never won and won it. But this one
Speaker 4: he won with a young team of eight debutantes. And
Speaker 4: it's hats off to Teddy. Good year and well done.
Speaker 4: Hopefully it gets to the dam as well.
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe Look, I'm not sure what's going to come
Speaker 1: in front of in front of him next year also,
Speaker 1: but this year was an extraordinary year, extraordinary for his age,
Speaker 1: for the team you had. I'm sure even to say
Speaker 1: that he played okay, you play it okay, and not to.
Speaker 5: Like digress at all. But there's a thing right that
Speaker 5: because I read a lot. There's a thing called a
Speaker 5: book called The Outliers, and they talk about and we
Speaker 5: see it with the boys as they get better throughout
Speaker 5: the season. It's a ten thousand hour all so usually
Speaker 5: find and he talks about athletes and when they're born
Speaker 5: and you know, like the hours they put in, and
Speaker 5: usually when you hit the ten thousand hours, you've become professional.
Speaker 5: So if you look at how often he plays, like
Speaker 5: his training, like you know, the challenges or how he
Speaker 5: has to adapt, it would make sense that he is
Speaker 5: getting to the point where he's becoming elite.
Speaker 2: Does anyone in this room nowhere the ten thousand hour originate?
Speaker 1: No, but actually I've actually heard half that book.
Speaker 5: I don't think he took it, like he didn't create it,
Speaker 5: Malcolm Gladwell.
Speaker 2: But the got that book the ten thousand hours is
Speaker 2: the Beatles. Oh really ten thousand hours in a club
Speaker 2: in Germany before anyone knew who they were boot Boodles
Speaker 2: in the okay, when they still had pete based on
Speaker 2: drums on drums drums, So yeah.
Speaker 5: I think, And it's funny we start to see the
Speaker 5: guys really come into a good stride this time of year,
Speaker 5: which is annoying because we're almost a band. Yeah, but
Speaker 5: one of the daily ms, it's obviously like after.
Speaker 6: The Grand Final, no, no, no, tomorrow, during the week Okay,
Speaker 6: it's why why, especially since the concussioner all changed, I've
Speaker 6: been saying it should be a week off before the
Speaker 6: Grand Final so you've got two week breaks.
Speaker 2: So any concussions are cleared, makes sense, any niggling injuries
Speaker 2: are cleared. You can dedicate the whole first week to
Speaker 2: media and the breakfast and the daily ms and all
Speaker 2: the rest of the bullshit and kissing babies and photos
Speaker 2: and all that, and then the second week just get
Speaker 2: down to preparation. That makes sense. That's what happens in Americans.
Speaker 2: And apparently what's his name, fucking fat boy Slim or
Speaker 2: whatever pulled out of the Grand Final.
Speaker 4: Swims said he's okay. They ranged him up and apparently
Speaker 4: recovered under I read a story that it happened he
Speaker 4: pulled out of a concert on the weekend, and then
Speaker 4: that fears that he's not going to make it. But
Speaker 4: Abdo confirmed yesterday on and then the word three sixty
Speaker 4: and he said that they contacted rooms and he's fine.
Speaker 2: Did they have Teddy waiting for with his squeeze with.
Speaker 1: Now that was the good.
Speaker 4: There's always a bad.
Speaker 2: What it's actually a bit of a shame this week.
Speaker 2: It's it's unfortunate, but we've seen the I don't really
Speaker 2: know how else to put this, but the Sharks their
Speaker 2: finals winning streak of two matches has come to an
Speaker 2: end once again.
Speaker 1: So poor shut.
Speaker 2: Talking all the ship this year, the hype about after
Speaker 2: they won one game and then then they won, then
Speaker 2: they won the second game, and and they're not nice
Speaker 2: guys anymore and all the rest of it, and they
Speaker 2: were and they're too. Match winning streak has come to
Speaker 2: an and he was calling Nicole the bad boy Nicol.
Speaker 2: So they crawled back under the little rock from where
Speaker 2: they came from and back to back to square one. Disappointing, disappointing.
Speaker 1: We expect a little bit more from bad boy Nicola
Speaker 1: and his mates there at the Shire.
Speaker 2: But not what do you guys, what do you guys
Speaker 2: put when we're going to talk about it, what do
Speaker 2: you guys put?
Speaker 5: That?
Speaker 1: Down to.
Speaker 2: The game?
Speaker 4: The game.
Speaker 2: He went missing, All the big names went missing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's It was a funny. It was. It
Speaker 1: was a funny old game. Because I don't think that
Speaker 1: Cornella played Paul. I really don't think. I don't think
Speaker 1: they played Paul. I think Melbourne the Spine especially was
Speaker 1: was outstanding. And uh, Stefano has become a different human being.
Speaker 1: He's come he's become paint hust.
Speaker 2: Like maybe three good games.
Speaker 1: At the moment, all I can do is judge him
Speaker 1: on the last game, the best game of his career.
Speaker 1: You're all I'm gonna do is judge him on his
Speaker 1: last game. And he was playing huss like the Melbourne Storm. Uh,
Speaker 1: the Melbourne Storm spine controlled that game. I'm telling you now,
Speaker 1: the halfback Duram Hughes, he still got to break an up.
Speaker 2: I'm telling you now, how he did what he did.
Speaker 2: They didn't target him.
Speaker 1: They didn't target him.
Speaker 2: They tried.
Speaker 1: I think they tried at the start, but that just
Speaker 1: that's just not good enough to tell you. I think
Speaker 1: they tried to the.
Speaker 2: Guys running on one arm. There's no excuse. You gotta
Speaker 2: run your big man anymore. Now.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, he actually pumped off some some guy with
Speaker 1: his bad It was amazing, but he was he was outstanding.
Speaker 1: And we said Stefano was outstanding. Harry Graham and uh
Speaker 1: and Tanya's Tanya's favorite Cameron Monster my god, my god. Well,
Speaker 1: the spine and and and and paper house, and that's
Speaker 1: that was the That was the all. The the spine
Speaker 1: of the Storm just got the job done. On the
Speaker 1: other side, I think they really tried. I think I
Speaker 1: think everything went to plan. The Cernal forwards went forward,
Speaker 1: they rolled then then for Blake it's not first thing,
Speaker 1: but second stint it was outstanding. It was like I said,
Speaker 1: another one paying hassl Like, uh, but I don't know.
Speaker 1: Just you know, the supporters are blaming Paul Kennedy for
Speaker 1: not getting the job done, but Kennedy's on two hundred
Speaker 1: and fifty thousand dollars. Kennedy is pretty good value.
Speaker 2: The sport is the last people you asked.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying they're never get they're all blaming him.
Speaker 2: You never get a logical view from.
Speaker 1: They're blaming him. Look, Trendle Trindle was Trindle went missing.
Speaker 1: I think then Nicol just said that Nico had an
Speaker 1: ordinary game as well.
Speaker 7: So I don't know. I think all the pieces are there,
Speaker 7: but someone's got a someone. Melbourne is just too good man.
Speaker 7: It's just coached and you know what it is, George
Speaker 7: too good. I know you guys are waiting for these
Speaker 7: rookies to come good. But in the last twenty years
Speaker 7: it's Cleary, Robbo Bellamy has It's the same and we're
Speaker 7: going to see the same.
Speaker 4: Again this year. We're going to see Cleary against was
Speaker 4: his name McGuire and he's won it as well. You
Speaker 4: know what I mean, These rookies, I don't know when
Speaker 4: how long it's going to wait till they get one.
Speaker 4: But FITZI is come the closest. But I can't see
Speaker 4: anyone outside of Bellamy, Cleary or Robbo, all these guys
Speaker 4: winning the next five premierships. Says until they retire.
Speaker 2: Maybe. Nicol always says that the cream rise at the
Speaker 2: top all the time. It does.
Speaker 4: And Bellamy just outplayed Fitzy, that's all he is. He
Speaker 4: professional coach and knows how to play it perfect fair enough.
Speaker 1: I can't.
Speaker 2: I can't put my finger on Coronella.
Speaker 1: Yeah, now, the referee was atrocious and I'm going to
Speaker 1: bring ten in here because I don't know how much
Speaker 1: lucks go Ashley Klein. So but he was, he was out,
Speaker 1: he was he helped. He just helped helped us spam
Speaker 1: in the game, because every time you stop start then
Speaker 1: the ground comes into into play. About about clin I think, well.
Speaker 5: Look, you know, I know we'll talk about it. But
Speaker 5: the ref certainly tried to help Panthers on the weekend
Speaker 5: and it didn't.
Speaker 1: You want.
Speaker 5: I talk about this with the boys, Like we're talking
Speaker 5: about the game, the Storm Sharks game and their run
Speaker 5: home hasn't been you know, very difficult, Like I haven't
Speaker 5: seen the game, like the team that Storm can be
Speaker 5: for like I think I've said this like every week,
Speaker 5: but they haven't. I probably would have expected them to
Speaker 5: like smash them a bit more like there's there's something
Speaker 5: that's happening in that team where like they're they're great,
Speaker 5: and are we just like, oh, they're so good because
Speaker 5: that we're conditioned that Storm are good, right, But I wouldn't.
Speaker 5: I just I thought it was going to go one
Speaker 5: or two ways. I thought either the Sharks were going
Speaker 5: to beat them by like you know, hair or Storm
Speaker 5: like we're going to completely going to smash them. And
Speaker 5: like I quite like Storm, like I think they're good,
Speaker 5: but I just I feel like they've just been a
Speaker 5: bit off recently.
Speaker 8: Klein.
Speaker 5: I don't know, like I don't know what's happening with
Speaker 5: the refs, Like I just I feel like there are
Speaker 5: very obvious things that they miss as well.
Speaker 2: Yeah it's too much and in the first half the
Speaker 2: balls in play for twenty two minutes.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well that's suits terrible. Well that suits Melbourne to
Speaker 4: t that's what I'm terrible. The slovel the better.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so I wasn't. I actually thought the Sharks were
Speaker 5: going to win. But I just haven't seen the Storm
Speaker 5: that we've seen in previous years. And we could, you know,
Speaker 5: we could say there's been injuries and everything else, and
Speaker 5: obviously I'm very partial to Broncos, but we've also had injuries.
Speaker 1: And do you think it was one of the Storm's
Speaker 1: better performances of the despite they're not hitting the heights
Speaker 1: that you're saying, was it one of the better performances.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I would say so, But they've they've hit pretty
Speaker 5: like some looking at their previous games, like they've they've
Speaker 5: had better like games though, like I think at the
Speaker 5: beginning of the year, probably before all the injuries. But yeah, yeah,
Speaker 5: the largest reason for their massive points difference is when
Speaker 5: they absolutely smash the Tigers this year as well. But
Speaker 5: I think I don't know, like I thought it was
Speaker 5: like a good game. I just yeah, I probably expected
Speaker 5: them to go a bit harder. I don't think the
Speaker 5: score reflected what you know.
Speaker 1: So do you think so you think Carnell was closer
Speaker 1: to to them, because I think think I don't think
Speaker 1: Coronella ever looked like I're going to win the game.
Speaker 5: Yeah, like the game. Who did they play the week before?
Speaker 5: Because they were.
Speaker 1: Brilliant Coronel Yeah, yeah, camera.
Speaker 5: That game and they traveled for that. They played in Canberra.
Speaker 4: Coronola got in there on the back of these good defense.
Speaker 4: They defended very well against the Roosters, and they defended
Speaker 4: well against Canberra. And I thought against Melbourne they were
Speaker 4: in there. Man, it was you know, they scored a
Speaker 4: try early and then Coronella hit back straight away and
Speaker 4: I thought.
Speaker 1: Oh that's good.
Speaker 4: They could have just sat back, but they hit straight
Speaker 4: away and then they went in at half time.
Speaker 1: Was a toll vight or something? I can't remember again,
Speaker 1: I can't put my finger. I can't say the Coronela
Speaker 1: played bad. I really can't.
Speaker 4: They defended was just I can't say.
Speaker 1: But they don't play great. But I can't say they're
Speaker 1: playing bad. Now we can pick little bits and ps.
Speaker 1: We said about Nickel, but he didn't play bad. But
Speaker 1: it should be great. It should be great. Yeah, he
Speaker 1: should be. He should be. And and some other players,
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, like they say about Kennedy and
Speaker 1: you want us to think about they say about Kennedy,
Speaker 1: not that he's a bad player, but your full back
Speaker 1: is supposed to be like Papenhauser at this end of
Speaker 1: the year. Oh yeah, I look for me. I like him,
Speaker 1: but look at so So that's what I think. That's
Speaker 1: what they're alluding to. Not that he's not a good player.
Speaker 1: He's a great value for money. But and I think
Speaker 1: the forward pack I think for no Blake is amazing. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's amazing. I think break Blake.
Speaker 4: He was brilliant.
Speaker 1: He was his best year. Yeah, yeah, it's really good,
Speaker 1: really good. Billy Burns got that background, the wrecking machine,
Speaker 1: So I can't they.
Speaker 2: Played bad too much. Winning streak came from and help
Speaker 2: what a what a streak and what a streak, one
Speaker 2: of the greatest final It was better than last year
Speaker 2: one Game one too. They're improving, they're improved. The two
Speaker 2: prelims in a old and complain.
Speaker 1: If you know what, if you told me and you
Speaker 1: told me you made a prelim this year, you're happy,
Speaker 1: I'll take it.
Speaker 2: I'll take it. I'm on board. I'm on board. Better
Speaker 2: than losing forty six a halftime and game one that.
Speaker 1: Was going one. But that's going on. I don't know. Look, look,
Speaker 1: who do you in terms of the game. So you
Speaker 1: think they've got improvement in it? Storm? Yeah, absolutely, I.
Speaker 2: Have to you have to improve, They have to improve.
Speaker 5: I just you know, you kind of watch different coaches, right,
Speaker 5: and like you don't obviously I'll lean towards what I'm'm
Speaker 5: more familiar with. But you've got Bellamy that absolutely like
Speaker 5: rips them apart. And you guys have all played played sport,
Speaker 5: and then you and you've your leaders too, and then
Speaker 5: you've got coaches that are a bit more I guess
Speaker 5: they're forward with their leadership. So if we compare Christian
Speaker 5: Wolf with you know whoever, it might be right. So
Speaker 5: I feel like the boys, I think they respect like
Speaker 5: Bellamy and everything, but there's that it's very obvious that
Speaker 5: he would be quite difficult, right, Whereas if you watch Madge,
Speaker 5: you know, like even the press conference after with Reynolds
Speaker 5: is incredibly humble and again I have very tinted rose glasses, right,
Speaker 5: But I don't know, I think there's improvement.
Speaker 2: You watch you watch House target Town, right, m Yeah,
Speaker 2: he saw just liking the change.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they deserve the but.
Speaker 2: That's his style. That's he's just better he's better at
Speaker 2: putting on a posa face in front of the cameras.
Speaker 2: He's good. Bellamy is not really good at doing that.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm not you know what. That doll
Speaker 1: seem to love him behind closed doors. So yeah, they
Speaker 1: say that. They all do say that. He goes on
Speaker 1: and he does spray just randomly. Sometimes it just goes
Speaker 1: to sprays. But I don't think they sort of take
Speaker 1: it seriously sometimes. Monster said, sometimes we walk down and
Speaker 1: start laughing. So I don't I think they've got some
Speaker 1: sort of balance down there.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, but Nicole told me something RT which
Speaker 1: I didn't know, and I should have known. Eleven Grand
Speaker 1: finals the guys made this would be number eleven. So
Speaker 1: there's something doing.
Speaker 2: In twenty three years as a coach the finals twenty
Speaker 2: two times.
Speaker 1: I can't believe that.
Speaker 2: And the only time we did it was when they
Speaker 2: were expelled.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I can't believe. That's amazing. That's a that's a
Speaker 1: record for anyone.
Speaker 2: Eleven sorry, ten.
Speaker 5: Hours.
Speaker 2: There you are.
Speaker 4: If you look at if you look at these two
Speaker 4: teams too, if you look at their line up, their
Speaker 4: spine in twenty twenty two, which is four years now,
Speaker 4: same spine as what they had then to what they've
Speaker 4: got now. I think the only difference is Shark said
Speaker 4: Moyland as well and Trendle was coming through, so they
Speaker 4: were sort of backing each other the spines. Yeah, Melbourne
Speaker 4: had the same Pappenhausen, huge grant and until last year Penry.
Speaker 4: They lost up the curus after the first Grand till
Speaker 4: last year. But they lost the first round Hill hooker
Speaker 4: and then they replaced him and then they lost either
Speaker 4: one after that, So they lost two of their spine
Speaker 4: going into this year.
Speaker 2: But they know, I mean like they lost final, Yeah,
Speaker 2: but then they were intact until this year.
Speaker 4: Probably spine probably about that was that hooker. They got
Speaker 4: their spine. There wasn't another hooker. There was one, and
Speaker 4: that he came after the Yeah, there was another hooker
Speaker 4: after Rappy and then it.
Speaker 1: Was yeah, happy that it was still there. It's a
Speaker 1: good question that wasn't he's going to Super League this
Speaker 1: year now, yeah, but he's been there mostly the hookers.
Speaker 4: But yeah, but those two teams particularly, they've had the
Speaker 4: same spine there going into the semi finals game.
Speaker 1: So what you're saying is they've been stable they've been stable.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and they've had the luxury of having that, you know,
Speaker 4: and a lot of teams have that luxury. You know,
Speaker 4: you keep your spine intact the whole time.
Speaker 2: Did you did you like any other performance that hasn't
Speaker 2: had a couple of very long sin Yeah, he did
Speaker 2: in that time almost two years.
Speaker 1: You know, you know what the guy, the guy freak
Speaker 1: up because I know he's quick and and he's eager,
Speaker 1: and he's he's full of courage, but he's a small man.
Speaker 1: He gets he gets ragged around so much, he gets hit.
Speaker 1: So I just keep from bouncing up and he goes
Speaker 1: good on.
Speaker 4: But if you look at that Melbourne spine, before they
Speaker 4: had Harry Grant, they had Cameron Smith, what a good
Speaker 4: and before Jerome Hughes was cronk before. Okay, So Bellamy's
Speaker 4: spine has always been top.
Speaker 9: He says around, he says around, He says that, and
Speaker 9: in that interview he said he goes when everything was
Speaker 9: going to crab, I wanted my spine around the spine.
Speaker 2: That's that's how it plays.
Speaker 1: He plays down the middle corridor in the train on
Speaker 1: those two train tracks, on both sides.
Speaker 2: That's why he did English go yeah, because he wasn't
Speaker 2: one of the spines.
Speaker 5: It's interesting to see the No, It'll be interesting to
Speaker 5: see next year because we were talking Georgia last week
Speaker 5: how maybe it was a week before. How they normally
Speaker 5: get their like their feet teams come from all their
Speaker 5: their pool comes from Queensland and they've close those relationships.
Speaker 5: It'll be interesting to see how next year looks like
Speaker 5: if they you know, they're obviously not working with whatever
Speaker 5: teams they were in Brisbane too, how that will evolve.
Speaker 1: So everything's now everything's badged storm and in that in
Speaker 1: what was that one of the Queensland teams that one
Speaker 1: one of the competitions up there, there's nine Victorian players
Speaker 1: in the team.
Speaker 2: You didn't hear about that In one of one of the.
Speaker 1: Comps up there was it on a ball or fleet
Speaker 1: or something like that too, there was there was nine
Speaker 1: Victorian players in the team. So they're really concentrating on
Speaker 1: on pathways in Victoria really really are so, and it's
Speaker 1: looking at what it's will everge, will everge? Seriously, they've
Speaker 1: been getting all their players from Queensland, I mean a
Speaker 1: long way away, like I like like.
Speaker 5: With Raiders, like we kind of adopt Storm because a
Speaker 5: lot of the players are Queenslanders and they pay for
Speaker 5: Queensland and I love Slater but then obviously this weekend
Speaker 5: it's going to be different. But I have like this
Speaker 5: almost love hate relationship with Storm, Like I like them,
Speaker 5: but then you know when they're playing Queensland different right,
Speaker 5: But but yeah, like I think they've got more in them.
Speaker 5: I think, you know, Bellamy might, I don't know, Like
Speaker 5: it's funny we look at the list of what it
Speaker 5: looks like now and then it could potentially move around.
Speaker 5: I don't feel like they have enough as many players
Speaker 5: as we do to move to shuffle around. I'm surprised
Speaker 5: Hughes did so well.
Speaker 2: Yeah that was excellent.
Speaker 1: Yeah you know what I thought he'ld run and hide
Speaker 1: and just inject and running a hide and inject. But
Speaker 1: he was straight in there all the physical stuff and
Speaker 1: Nicholas right, they started targeting, but they just dropped off.
Speaker 1: They just as Nicol said, I would have been running
Speaker 1: in the front roller eighty minute for eighty minutes just
Speaker 1: to keep on straight to him. But there you go.
Speaker 1: They didn't have the ability to do it.
Speaker 4: And he's scored a tough try using his arm arming
Speaker 4: off a.
Speaker 10: Great try, an extra two days rest. That's a big
Speaker 10: thing in very big film.
Speaker 1: But the year, yea, it's a big thing, and especially
Speaker 1: for a huge would be a big thing because also Storm.
Speaker 2: I mean it depends how far the annual is real.
Speaker 2: But Storm and Sharks played at night. Broncos and Panthers
Speaker 2: played in a hot afternoon as well.
Speaker 1: That would have been draining, That's true.
Speaker 5: It was so hot that as well, Like I know
Speaker 5: what it's like down there, but even right now it's
Speaker 5: probably like maybe twenty six degrees, but today it was
Speaker 5: probably like thirty thirty two, but hot like Queensland. And
Speaker 5: that's what it was like on Sunday.
Speaker 1: We had we had thirty two day as well. To
Speaker 1: you know, I'm not looking for summer, not really looking
Speaker 1: for the summer. But anyway, let me look at the forecast.
Speaker 1: It's on Sunday.
Speaker 2: So the sharky is on their way home and I'm
Speaker 2: thirty two and the storm march into the b One,
Speaker 2: all much of the Big One and Broncos Panthers sixteen
Speaker 2: points to fourteen. Panthers are winning fourteen. I was going
Speaker 2: to say, I don't know how the Broncos won, but
Speaker 2: I'm going to change that too. I don't know how
Speaker 2: Penrith lost. I gree when they're winning forty and Neil
Speaker 2: on a sudden death match.
Speaker 1: I agree.
Speaker 2: I agree. It was a strange game, very strange. You
Speaker 2: know what.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna throw it over to see what she thought.
Speaker 1: Yeast ball and then and then I alter with me.
Speaker 5: I was blowing up to think about it. I was like,
Speaker 5: I think it's a half time. I was like, I've
Speaker 5: counted about ten forward passes pulled.
Speaker 2: Up, there was one ready made one and the Panthers
Speaker 2: second try. Did you say that on the left side
Speaker 2: of the field from dummy half he threw a blatantly
Speaker 2: forward pass and then they scored.
Speaker 5: No, you said to me, You're like, that was only
Speaker 5: a meter forward?
Speaker 2: Did you say it?
Speaker 5: Yeah? I did, and al dropped the first try.
Speaker 1: That's fifty fifty we can argue.
Speaker 2: Then the other one.
Speaker 1: That's a fifty fifty one.
Speaker 5: Frame by frame. But also if they say that Mariner's
Speaker 5: try is a double movement, then you also allowed the
Speaker 5: first try, so whatever, but.
Speaker 2: It wasn't.
Speaker 4: That wasn't a double movement.
Speaker 1: Now, Yeah, well that was what meant.
Speaker 5: That was the new South Spals fiery hate, breathing up.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 5: And then there was the case of did Man tackle
Speaker 5: Cleary in the air? He didn't frame by frame They
Speaker 5: showed that on three sixty.
Speaker 2: Don't if you saw three.
Speaker 1: Sixty, but that that's that's null and void because the
Speaker 1: worst thing that could have happened was a penalty.
Speaker 2: But he's got the penalty anyway, So.
Speaker 4: I don't know how they got the penalty.
Speaker 2: That's that doesn't matter.
Speaker 1: That's could late the.
Speaker 2: Point that the point for me is that emotion. Everyone
Speaker 2: gets carried away with emotion. Just look at the frame
Speaker 2: by frame, like I said last night, because I thought
Speaker 2: the same thing until I watched three sixty last night.
Speaker 2: His foot was on the ground when the defender made
Speaker 2: contact with him. That's legal right now, Even the commentators
Speaker 2: calling the game. I watched the Channel nine coverage, not
Speaker 2: the Fox teel coverage, right they said, it's fine. Is
Speaker 2: that's wrong with that? During the game right clearly through,
Speaker 2: I wouldn't call it a part. It was as much
Speaker 2: as a punch is as Walsh's head but was a headbug.
Speaker 2: It was a nudge. But he threw the first shot
Speaker 2: at Ezra Man. The clearly started that situation. Then then
Speaker 2: what's his name? Ginger megs ran in? Yeah, right, what's
Speaker 2: his name? I forgot? If anything, those two should have
Speaker 2: been penalized because Ezra Man actually did nothing wrong. At
Speaker 2: the end of the day, I'll put a stop to this.
Speaker 2: At the end of the day.
Speaker 1: What really happened was they had a scuffle, and then
Speaker 1: what happened the last game happened this game, and I
Speaker 1: would have if I was off and clearly I would
Speaker 1: have said to him, do not break it to scuffle
Speaker 1: because all of a sudden, because because Brisbane is an
Speaker 1: emotional team, that emotion lifted straight away and they were
Speaker 1: on a different platform.
Speaker 2: So at the end favor for sure.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So at the end of the day, we can
Speaker 1: argue about that incident. You know, I say it was tair.
Speaker 1: You'd say that that doesn't matter because the worst thing
Speaker 1: could have happened was a penalty, no sense off, nothing.
Speaker 2: But if you park that for a second, right, it
Speaker 2: helped use more than anyone. The other night, I was
Speaker 2: watching highlights of a few games of para games this year.
Speaker 2: In the Easter Monday game against the Tigers, three or
Speaker 2: four para defenders picked up one of the players and
Speaker 2: carried him over the sideline. It was all fair play, right,
Speaker 2: they took him in touch Taruva ran over, grabbed one
Speaker 2: of the power players and threw him. But then one
Speaker 2: of the other power players ran in and grabbed Throuva
Speaker 2: and they both got seen me in. Okay, that's coming
Speaker 2: in after the third man. So why didn't Ginger megsic.
Speaker 1: Okay, I agree regardless, Ginger megsamah, Liam Martin, So I
Speaker 1: agree that Ginger med anyone third manion. It's spaghetti if
Speaker 1: I agree or disagree. Oh yeah, that's been happening. But
Speaker 1: why is it okay? Okay, it's okay.
Speaker 2: You should have been making clearly clearly through a soft
Speaker 2: jab Again again, why is that okay?
Speaker 4: Because it got late, that's what.
Speaker 2: But he didn't.
Speaker 4: It wasn't protected but anyway, but.
Speaker 2: He didn't need exactly. But but the issue is if
Speaker 2: you don't agree with it, it's all wrong. No, everyone
Speaker 2: saying it.
Speaker 4: Was a bit turning point because they got the penalty
Speaker 4: and they scored that.
Speaker 1: But the issue is this that if you look, if
Speaker 1: you look at what happened, and we can't obviously, if
Speaker 1: you look what happened, I saw it last night. If
Speaker 1: you look at what happened all through the year. Okay,
Speaker 1: foot on the ground, not on the ground. That's a penalty.
Speaker 2: How's it a penalty? If you put something around it
Speaker 2: doesn't matter. It's late. How is it late if you're
Speaker 2: protecting kickers. It wasn't late, though, you can tie Jim.
Speaker 2: We've seen it was. Sorry was he penalized as man
Speaker 2: was later? If it was late, it would have been penalized,
Speaker 2: but it was.
Speaker 4: So we're growing with every refereement decision now. It was
Speaker 4: calls that it's right. If it was, it would have
Speaker 4: been a tackle. He just didn't call.
Speaker 1: It's got their opinion.
Speaker 4: Everyone's got their opinion.
Speaker 2: That doesn't I didn't call it either.
Speaker 1: That doesn't matter exactly. The worst thing could happened was
Speaker 1: it was a penalty, and he's got the penalty. But
Speaker 1: the worst thing that really happened was he lifted Jews
Speaker 1: on a different platform.
Speaker 2: Yes, what really happened. It's the same thing with Hudson
Speaker 2: Young Canberra and the backfighted on them. Yeah, did the
Speaker 2: same thing in a backfight on them. But what I
Speaker 2: want to know is why did they get special treatment?
Speaker 4: Who Henry?
Speaker 1: I didn't I.
Speaker 2: I saw four or five examples in that.
Speaker 4: In the last six weeks, I've seen so much pen Hat,
Speaker 4: the people wanting them out and this dynasty to end
Speaker 4: from New South Welsh people as well. I went to
Speaker 4: a party, I went to a player and there's a
Speaker 4: lot of people Fromales that were going for Brisbane teams
Speaker 4: and g T was going, I don't get it.
Speaker 2: We're in Sydney.
Speaker 4: What wouldn't you want to Sydney team in the Grand
Speaker 4: Final and you'd want Broncos.
Speaker 2: I'm not hiding. I'm not hiding from that. I wanted
Speaker 2: them out too. I'm glad they're Yeah, that's cool, that's
Speaker 2: no problem. I'm just talking a lot of it.
Speaker 1: I'm just specifically one game now, list to social media
Speaker 1: and stuff, just specifically, regardless you went in your favor
Speaker 1: forward passes or forward passes. You know what, it happens
Speaker 1: every game once we do see once we don't see
Speaker 1: once that score try, they don't score a try. I
Speaker 1: put him in the two hard scored at different ye,
Speaker 1: but I put him. I put him in the two
Speaker 1: hard basket because we see him every game. I agree,
Speaker 1: they disagree, but it just happened.
Speaker 2: That does.
Speaker 5: Every week. There is inconsistent exactly.
Speaker 4: Absolutely, that's my that's my thing.
Speaker 5: We collectively can't argue because there's actually no anchor to
Speaker 5: argue too, because even the basic rules that we know,
Speaker 5: which like I've mentioned it before, but ten twenty years ago,
Speaker 5: thirty years ago when I started watching the Broncos, like well,
Speaker 5: I was like three, the rules are very different.
Speaker 2: So I even messaged you during the game and I said,
Speaker 2: how did that Brisbane player I don't know his name
Speaker 2: not get simmed in for that cannonball tackle? Yeah, that
Speaker 2: was a cannonball. That was dangerous. That was a is
Speaker 2: that not a simbing?
Speaker 4: At least it didn't get changed nothing one like you
Speaker 4: can do an aco like that.
Speaker 2: That was good. We feel the dangerous it was.
Speaker 5: Will listen. But the issue is also we have and
Speaker 5: I've said it to you guys before, now that I
Speaker 5: now with like Corey and the boys watching it, it's
Speaker 5: confusing to explain to them when I'm blowing up about
Speaker 5: certain calls. But that's not the same call as what's
Speaker 5: present today. The other thing, too is if you look
Speaker 5: at Origin Raiders, like if there's a point where we
Speaker 5: are pushed into a corner and people are essentially shitting
Speaker 5: on us, we're actually going to rise up more. So
Speaker 5: you're right in that them angering the Broncos team. I
Speaker 5: think that is the thing that kind of unifies them
Speaker 5: to what I'm happy about.
Speaker 2: And it's a coincidence. In the last two weeks, it's
Speaker 2: it's gone the Broncos way both times. But what I'm
Speaker 2: happy about is if there's one thing that we see it,
Speaker 2: whether it's a coincidence or not, you look at the
Speaker 2: as your man tackle on Cleary, whether it's late or not, whatever,
Speaker 2: we can argue about it all night. Clearly instigated the
Speaker 2: first thing, and then Lea Martin ran in and apparently
Speaker 2: went Brisbane's way the week before, week or two before
Speaker 2: whatever it was. Huts and Young Yeah, for no reason
Speaker 2: at all, went up and got in Walsh's face and instigated.
Speaker 2: He got penalized. So what I'm happy about is that
Speaker 2: the person who instigated the bullshit has been penalized. Now, Okay,
Speaker 2: that's what I'm happy about, right, whether it's right or wrong,
Speaker 2: because the one thing, one thing that I've always hated
Speaker 2: since these rule changes is that now these players know
Speaker 2: they can't get punched, they can basically do whatever they
Speaker 2: want and when you and and there was a game.
Speaker 2: There was a game. I don't know what you it was,
Speaker 2: but it had to be five or six years ago
Speaker 2: where Melbourne played Manly and our guy Dylan Walker was
Speaker 2: playing for Manley. I don't know if you guys remember,
Speaker 2: and Curtis Scott was playing for Melbourne and the same
Speaker 2: thing happened. Dylan Walker. He was he was a big nag.
Speaker 2: You're on the fields. He's changed now right. Incidentally, after
Speaker 2: this game he went and got in Curtis Scott's and
Speaker 2: Curtis Scott just started belting the ship out of him.
Speaker 2: I remember, I send you the Dylan Walker walked off
Speaker 2: the field with a quicker ball on his eye, and yeah,
Speaker 2: sure enough Curtis Scott got SimBin. But it was a
Speaker 2: case of you know, it was a reminder to everyone.
Speaker 2: So if nothing else, I just like the fact that
Speaker 2: I'm seeing two guys instigating something. The parody's going against them.
Speaker 2: I'm happy about that because you should need to do
Speaker 2: something if you're not going to follow through it.
Speaker 5: But the thing is too like you've got to go,
Speaker 5: you know, we get we get a lot of ships
Speaker 5: like and I know, and I was talking about it
Speaker 5: with Nick, but we are fourteens, like you know, I
Speaker 5: can't really say anything about Titans, Cowboys kind of up
Speaker 5: and down. Dolphins are fairing new and Dolphins don't get
Speaker 5: as much flak yet they will. I know it's going
Speaker 5: to come.
Speaker 2: But do you mean from Queensland people?
Speaker 5: No, from news, from news from us we love.
Speaker 2: Then you guys create a budget we love because I've
Speaker 2: always liked the Broncos. I've never I've never said a
Speaker 2: bad thing about it.
Speaker 4: But you guys create your Slanger started saying Saints can't play.
Speaker 4: That started everything, Honestly, that that started everything on the Broncos.
Speaker 2: They need to.
Speaker 5: Get on the Broncos and we can go back to like,
Speaker 5: you know, the party last year, like and I was.
Speaker 5: I'm always a harsh on them, as we all are
Speaker 5: in our teams. But Walters wasn't good. You had the
Speaker 5: mam shit, the Cobo stuff, you had all this movement.
Speaker 5: Walters was out, you know, all mate, like Langer left
Speaker 5: and everything happened, and then this is we've I didn't
Speaker 5: think we would get to this point, right, Oh really, Reynold, No,
Speaker 5: we've had Reynolds out, We've had Walsh, Walsh in the
Speaker 5: media all like, we've had so much stuff Hars needs
Speaker 5: to have a surgery immediately after he finishes.
Speaker 6: We've actually had a really yeah, but we've had both
Speaker 6: young into this game, neither one of them at their best.
Speaker 2: Yeah, be a strange mag Yeah, you know, I.
Speaker 5: Think I think it's just for us, Like you know,
Speaker 5: I was thinking about the last time. You know, we've
Speaker 5: obviously won, but also you know, just just seeing I
Speaker 5: think people get behind the Broncos. We've had Mam people
Speaker 5: like even Bronco supporters doing him that we've had all
Speaker 5: this stuff that happened, and I would say the I'm
Speaker 5: just probably proud that they've adapted. And I even said
Speaker 5: to you guys last year Madge is good for them
Speaker 5: because they need a good kick up the arse and
Speaker 5: it's actually worked. Like when Shitvasaki turned up drunk and
Speaker 5: Madge was like, not your band, but that was a risk, right,
Speaker 5: but I actually respected his decision to do that.
Speaker 2: The last one you guys won was against Melbourne.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so I think, look and you know, props to
Speaker 5: and it was actually it's three you guys in last
Speaker 5: year that I've really started to see other teams like
Speaker 5: I don't dislike the Panthers. Actually I'm not. I don't
Speaker 5: think it's great that their dynasty is over, like I.
Speaker 2: Don't think it is.
Speaker 5: I don't have anything like any negativity towards Panthers at all.
Speaker 5: I don't think that their favorites or whatever. I think
Speaker 5: that they've had a bit of a ship time. They
Speaker 5: were dead last like at the beginning of the year,
Speaker 5: and they've actually come back really well. And I don't
Speaker 5: have any issues. If they were playing Bruces, it's a
Speaker 5: different conpert.
Speaker 2: I thought what they did was remarkable. Reason the only
Speaker 2: reason I said I wanted them out was because I
Speaker 2: just want to see a change different Grand Far after
Speaker 2: five years in a row, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: I just want to say a change.
Speaker 5: That's all we wanted Raiders Broncos, right.
Speaker 1: I wanted again.
Speaker 2: I wanted that again, and I thought it was going
Speaker 2: to be raided. Broncos really did.
Speaker 4: And at the end of the day that was three
Speaker 4: minutes away from making the Grand Phone, you know what
Speaker 4: I mean. It took the Broncos that excellent to play
Speaker 4: to win it. So you know what, it did come close.
Speaker 4: The Broncos just too good in the end.
Speaker 1: If we want to talk about the actual game the
Speaker 1: first half, I mean Panthers were doing Panthers sort of stuff. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Nathan was controlling it like
Speaker 1: a violin.
Speaker 2: It was.
Speaker 1: It was like and and me who loves watching high
Speaker 1: quality that top of rugby league like systems and processes,
Speaker 1: because of that second half stage, because of that cana
Speaker 1: between in the eighties, because we hadn't I'll say it again,
Speaker 1: they can be him in the eighty had no no
Speaker 1: right to be on the same paddic as that Paramatta
Speaker 1: team because that Parameda team was the Broncos absolutely full
Speaker 1: of stars and we're just a bunch of faddies running
Speaker 1: around with systems and processes.
Speaker 2: Easy. You guys had superstars.
Speaker 1: Yeah, growth more.
Speaker 2: Of a brother's turny both teams, but we played differently.
Speaker 1: We played system system and played.
Speaker 2: Interesting thing about this was that, like in the first half,
Speaker 2: the Broncos were shooting themselves in the foot. Yeah, they
Speaker 2: knocked on three times in the Panthers red zone unforced errors.
Speaker 2: Reynolds kicks the ball out in the four what he
Speaker 2: did in the Grand Final when he had a line dropout,
Speaker 2: putting themselves under pressure with errors they did, and somehow
Speaker 2: that pendulum swung in the second half.
Speaker 4: I still think you know why this is what I reckon.
Speaker 4: It's Ben Hunt is one of the best hookers in
Speaker 4: the game. I don't care what anyone says. It right last,
Speaker 4: and he should have as soon as he went the hooker,
Speaker 4: it just changed. You put got Ezra Man and Reynolds
Speaker 4: are the two best halves right now, the two best
Speaker 4: in that team, the two best.
Speaker 2: It was horribly unorganized in the second half.
Speaker 4: As soon as Ben Hunt came on, it changed because
Speaker 4: he knows when to run, knows when to give it.
Speaker 1: Just is just a better player. He's got the origin.
Speaker 1: What he gonna say. The game changed in the second
Speaker 1: half when pain Huss went skits and that helped one
Speaker 1: hundred and seventy five twelve. He could hit ups, every
Speaker 1: everything came off his his playablele spent the line they
Speaker 1: were going forward and then guess what, when he was running,
Speaker 1: he gave He gave a channel for Wilson to run
Speaker 1: Willison and them as a tandem. And and that's why
Speaker 1: he should have been sent off. Sorry, and he shouldn't
Speaker 1: have played next week.
Speaker 2: Next week, the very least.
Speaker 1: At the very least. Okay, Pa Pain hoss is the
Speaker 1: key and even the last try painhuss run okay, Reche
Speaker 1: Walsh to shut down there, Reece Walsh got room and
Speaker 1: through that, I've got one Pains is the key to
Speaker 1: this time.
Speaker 2: I've got one thing about Reee Walsh. I need to
Speaker 2: be careful for hell. I've got to choose my words
Speaker 2: carefully here because I don't know. I don't know if
Speaker 2: everyone's missed it or no one's talked about it. Maybe
Speaker 2: this is just my personal opinion. And I'll preface what
Speaker 2: I'm about to say with I think he will, and
Speaker 2: I think he'll do it winningly. But I think Reese
Speaker 2: Walsh has now backed himself into a little bit of
Speaker 2: a corner as far as his superstardom goes, because there
Speaker 2: was a huge moment the other day that he gave
Speaker 2: up to Adam Reynolds, right, and everyone just looks at
Speaker 2: that as, yeah, well Reynolds is a better kicker or
Speaker 2: whatever that was. It wasn't humbleness. He showed himself because
Speaker 2: he missed the sitter himself, because he missed the sitter.
Speaker 2: He missed the sitter five minutes earlier. And and the
Speaker 2: thing is now he's got to face that moment again
Speaker 2: at some point in his career, you know what I mean,
Speaker 2: where he's where he's got to take ownership of it.
Speaker 5: But Artie's right, like there is a humbleness in this.
Speaker 5: I actually sent this to Nick. I had about, oh,
Speaker 5: I know, ten mates at the game. But I said
Speaker 5: this to Nick at halftime and I meg visiting right
Speaker 5: near like the coach's bugs. And at halftime I said,
Speaker 5: go and find match and tell him Reynolds looks tired.
Speaker 5: He needs to go off. Hunt needs to go to hooker,
Speaker 5: ma'am to five eight, Wilson needs to chill out, and
Speaker 5: Stag seem to get angry, comes back in Stag scores
Speaker 5: a try payinghousekets like there was. I found it interesting
Speaker 5: he didn't move.
Speaker 2: People in the first you know what, respectfully, that humbleness
Speaker 2: came after Reynolds kick the kick. Yeah, right, But Artie,
Speaker 2: as a soccer player, you know this, right, There's there's
Speaker 2: especially in grand finals or finals whatever, there's two types
Speaker 2: of players on the field. There's the one who wants
Speaker 2: the ball and there's the one who's hoping someone else
Speaker 2: will do something. Who or not?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think.
Speaker 2: I know who. We both were right and I'm just
Speaker 2: saying there's going to come a moment in his career
Speaker 2: where he was a goal kicker. He had that moment,
Speaker 2: now I fully understand. I mean I wouldn't want to
Speaker 2: take it either, a right, you know he missed an
Speaker 2: easier one, yeah, a few minutes before, and so he
Speaker 2: wanted Reynolds to take it. But there's going to come over.
Speaker 2: But that's going to sit in the back of his mind.
Speaker 2: There's going to come a big moment down the track
Speaker 2: where he's going to make that call again and he
Speaker 2: has to take it.
Speaker 5: You forget, he's twenty three two years ago. He got
Speaker 5: absolutely ko in the first state of original last year.
Speaker 5: Whatever there is, you know a thing to him where
Speaker 5: there is. He's starting to be a bit more mature. Obviously.
Speaker 5: We get a lot more interviews and stuff up here
Speaker 5: as well, and he even put up a he was
Speaker 5: getting interviewed today and he was saying, He's like, look,
Speaker 5: you know, I've always tried to steer away from being
Speaker 5: the typical footy player person. And I know we can
Speaker 5: roll our eyes about that, but He's like, I try
Speaker 5: and resonate with people and be as authentic as I can,
Speaker 5: but sometimes I probably need to refrain, you know, the
Speaker 5: toilet water thing and everything else. But I think there's
Speaker 5: a maturity in him saying to Reynolds, say you take it.
Speaker 5: Also the other thing.
Speaker 2: To I think that's a shit that happened after the game,
Speaker 2: me personally, because at that time he had the ball,
Speaker 2: he had the moment, it was his to take, and
Speaker 2: he didn't take it.
Speaker 5: We collectively we're all like, thank God, he's not taking it.
Speaker 2: I can relate to that because Max has been kicking
Speaker 2: shit all year, right. I'm just saying in his personal development,
Speaker 2: that's going to be in the back of his mind
Speaker 2: where he had that moment to really cap off the
Speaker 2: last two weeks of what he's done. What he's done
Speaker 2: is being phenomenal.
Speaker 4: But I think he mentioned that, didn't he mention something
Speaker 4: like it?
Speaker 2: But that's all after the fact, Reynolds, that's after Renalds.
Speaker 4: He got plenty of time to do that in my career.
Speaker 2: That's after Renal kicker. Why did he take the kick
Speaker 2: before them, which is a lot easier and he missed it.
Speaker 5: What you're like arguing is correct. He completely should have
Speaker 5: bed and he didn't want to stuff it up, and
Speaker 5: you give it to the captain, right, But I also.
Speaker 2: Think, Yeah, all I'm saying is it's going to come
Speaker 2: into the boere. He's got to reface that moment again.
Speaker 2: That's all I'm saying. Have you ever thought of this? Though?
Speaker 4: If he didn't missed the goal and he got it,
Speaker 4: they would have only been two points behind. Instead of
Speaker 4: going for tries, I would have been going for two
Speaker 4: point field goal and they might have lost that game.
Speaker 4: So like he did miss the conversion and they got
Speaker 4: the four points.
Speaker 2: But I'm also will in the bed. If he kicked
Speaker 2: that goal before, he would have kicked the next one too.
Speaker 2: My one of my there's no humbleness there, and he
Speaker 2: kicks the goal before he kicks the one after.
Speaker 5: Because one of the favorite moments was Edwards trying to
Speaker 5: get a field goal.
Speaker 4: That's desperation.
Speaker 2: He looks like he's this year's carrying where and tear.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they look.
Speaker 2: Like I saw I saw highlights of the Parapen's Grand
Speaker 2: Final which was what three years ago, and he had
Speaker 2: a four, had a hen and he was a lot thinner.
Speaker 2: It was a lot thinner as well. But he looks,
Speaker 2: he looks, he looks like he's got the miles on him.
Speaker 2: Now after three more years, you know what I mean,
Speaker 2: he's got the miles on his legs.
Speaker 1: I hope he doesn't get picked for Australia because you can't.
Speaker 5: You'll probably Teddy pretty worried watching Reynolds play.
Speaker 2: So I was like, he had a pretty poor game.
Speaker 4: Instead up a try for Stags, put that kick through.
Speaker 2: Overall, the first.
Speaker 5: Half was bad, but adi if it takes the pain away,
Speaker 5: half half plays for New South Wales.
Speaker 2: So when you I thought you, I thought you were
Speaker 2: going to hit us with some origin bullshit before when
Speaker 2: you started going down the Queensland.
Speaker 5: Route right, Well no, but.
Speaker 2: Did you always do no? Right?
Speaker 5: We're going to see how Nex next week.
Speaker 2: Right, just before we move on, I just googled something,
Speaker 2: Just just googled something I want to say before we
Speaker 2: move on, right, and I've got to hear in front
Speaker 2: of it. Before the State of Origin series began in
Speaker 2: nineteen eighty, New South Wales dominated the Interstate Rugby League
Speaker 2: series against Queensland, winning fifty out of sixty six series.
Speaker 2: That doesn't compared to Queensland's ten with six series drawn
Speaker 2: fifty to ten.
Speaker 5: How many of you guys won in the last twenty years.
Speaker 5: Let's not talk.
Speaker 2: About fifty ten, fifty to ten, fifty series to ten,
Speaker 2: fifty series to ten. So if we're going to talk history,
Speaker 2: we're going to talk the whole history.
Speaker 4: Can I just got back one thing? I just want
Speaker 4: to mention, you know which guy felt sorry for. I
Speaker 4: think he had a really, really really bad game for
Speaker 4: Penrith in the second half, the half five eight Talagi,
Speaker 4: So I think he put him under a lot of pressure.
Speaker 2: My heart bled.
Speaker 4: He'll get better. I hope he'll get better. First off,
Speaker 4: feels good. First half I thought it was good, it
Speaker 4: was okay.
Speaker 2: The second half he was Nathan. I tried to do everything.
Speaker 1: And then that's last year and the year before the
Speaker 1: year before he had had Jeron and we can say
Speaker 1: anything about but he took some pressure off him.
Speaker 2: I mean he was looking for some help and.
Speaker 4: Look, he's going to be good. He's going to just
Speaker 4: drop it a couple of times. He's going to be
Speaker 4: He will be here and once we're giving flowers. Can
Speaker 4: I mention Ivan's master strike of putting all at team
Speaker 4: in the semi final series.
Speaker 1: I didn't see that coming. I would have I would
Speaker 1: have had if you asked me would have had. Mookie
Speaker 1: Jenkins was le tri score and he got all the
Speaker 1: trop the past few weeks. I can't believe qu for
Speaker 1: New South Wales.
Speaker 5: Al what I did. Like so obviously at the end
Speaker 5: and all the Broncos players are screaming and running into
Speaker 5: the field, the one Penrith player, as he should that
Speaker 5: came into that scenario was Yo. Like everyone else is jumping.
Speaker 5: You could see the Penrith panthers like you upset in
Speaker 5: the background, and Yo came straight in like you have
Speaker 5: full respect.
Speaker 1: Have you have you heard interviews with with Yello? Have
Speaker 1: you ever heard interviews? Because he's a country boy, he's
Speaker 1: a Forbes boy. He's the most humble. It's like those
Speaker 1: North Queensland kids, you know, I mean to come from cattle,
Speaker 1: cattle towns whatever.
Speaker 2: It's the most humblest human being in the world.
Speaker 5: And there was a lot of players that had and
Speaker 5: you would probably know this, George in how you study
Speaker 5: the game. But Smoothie.
Speaker 2: I loved Smoothie. I didn't could pick it. I couldn't
Speaker 2: pick it.
Speaker 5: Smoothie. Smoothie was brilliant, brilliant. He's just Willison just needed
Speaker 5: to like chill out, like.
Speaker 2: He's just he just an experience.
Speaker 1: I think, Oh no, no, Look he once once the
Speaker 1: second half came on and and he followed pain, because
Speaker 1: that's what he does. He follows pain. He was a
Speaker 1: wrecking machine. He was nearly as good as as Pain.
Speaker 1: He just came off every pain. Those two guys just
Speaker 1: put the concrete bed in and all they had to
Speaker 1: do is twinkle all the rest. The other thing I
Speaker 1: noticed was, of course, when when you have Reynolds in
Speaker 1: the team, you give the keys to the castle to Reynolds.
Speaker 1: The last six weeks, the cause the castle was was
Speaker 1: to Rees. Reese running into into a line of passive
Speaker 1: defense is completely different or when he comes off shape
Speaker 1: around the back, sweeping into into defensive in defensive when
Speaker 1: they're on good ball, you know what I mean. So
Speaker 1: the line is more aggressive. So when he gets the
Speaker 1: ball at halfway first off the ruck, the line is passive.
Speaker 1: So you saw a massive difference. I would be giving
Speaker 1: the next year the keys of the castle to Rees.
Speaker 1: I really would. I'll still have Reynolds there. I still
Speaker 1: have Reynolds there, but I'll be giving him more more
Speaker 1: opportunity to run first. And no blinds were shot. I
Speaker 1: love how Reese shoots blinds. I love how this shoots blinds.
Speaker 5: If Reese doesn't think and he just and I say
Speaker 5: this all the time and he's just in that state
Speaker 5: of flow. See it that much. Last week I did
Speaker 5: see it in the second half of the Raiders game.
Speaker 1: We gave that passed to the winger there, so he
Speaker 1: did do it, and I didn't see that coming on.
Speaker 1: I had got that passed away. But look he does
Speaker 1: Rewashed sort of things, Swash does Walsh.
Speaker 2: Things and Free. Yeah, there's there's players so good.
Speaker 1: There's players to you that do things that others can't,
Speaker 1: like Toho and Reese. It's just you know, just plays down.
Speaker 5: The stadium was nine people of full capacity.
Speaker 2: They're the ones who just didn't turn up apparently, and.
Speaker 5: There was apparently at the Cacston afterwards. There's some Penrith
Speaker 5: player sorry fan punched the Broncos player and then he
Speaker 5: got taken away by the cops and all the Broncos
Speaker 5: guys outside the Cacks and going turn.
Speaker 2: In the bench, really on on on on that.
Speaker 1: And I'm interested to see the ratings for the Grand
Speaker 1: Final this week because I don't know if you guys
Speaker 1: have heard AFL Grand Final nearly six million view. Yeah,
Speaker 1: records break on. Yeah, so you beat the Origin was
Speaker 1: the biggest ever watching show of all time. I think
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago that beat it. Yeah, well
Speaker 1: that's well.
Speaker 5: Sydney is incredibly When I was looking at getting tickets
Speaker 5: for incredibly expensive, like they're like the flights are like
Speaker 5: eight hundred one way, it come like twelve hundred like
Speaker 5: a night, Like they're like, you know your team, your
Speaker 5: fans must really love if they're coming coming.
Speaker 1: To see No, it's expensive. Expensive.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, but no, it was. It was a good game.
Speaker 5: I actually was not. I said to Nick, I was like, no,
Speaker 5: it's not going to happen. And I think it was
Speaker 5: when like Corey's system messaged me and she's like, oh,
Speaker 5: that's not going to happen. I was like, we've got
Speaker 5: ten more minutes. We do we do a lot in
Speaker 5: the last ten minutes, and then when Mariner scored, I
Speaker 5: was like, okay, we're fine.
Speaker 1: So so I actually told I think this before to Nicole.
Speaker 1: In a whole eighty minutes, Broncos are going to play
Speaker 1: fifteen minutes of Bronco's rugby league. If the other team
Speaker 1: can manage that fifteen minutes. So are they going to
Speaker 1: score ten points? Are they going to score thirty points?
Speaker 1: You can manage that fifteen minutes. They could. It could
Speaker 1: come all at once, or it could come in five
Speaker 1: minute blocks. Okay, they get out of the grind. How
Speaker 1: they did, how they did on Sunday. They get out
Speaker 1: of the grind, they play their football, they get back
Speaker 1: into some sort of I don't know, some sort of
Speaker 1: obscure top of rugby league. Then they get out of
Speaker 1: the grind. So that's where it comes down to it, and
Speaker 1: that's what will come down next this week. How much
Speaker 1: how Melbourne can hold that fifteen minutes as simple as that.
Speaker 2: Let's talk about a match for a minute, because we
Speaker 2: really haven't.
Speaker 1: Let's talk about match.
Speaker 2: Hey, let's talk about match. What a what a story? Absolutely?
Speaker 2: I mean it wins the Premiership at South then he
Speaker 2: goes to the Tigers as a horrible time, gets sacked,
Speaker 2: takes out of New Zealand, wacks Australia thirty toil in
Speaker 2: the final, takes over in New South Wales, wins the Origin,
Speaker 2: goes to Brisbane in his first season there is in
Speaker 2: the Grand Froed. What a story he loves, He loves
Speaker 2: he loves having.
Speaker 4: Good players and if he wins it two in a row,
Speaker 4: two Grand finals. He's been in two Grand finals one too, and.
Speaker 2: Let's not forget the first one was was breaking Sous exactly,
Speaker 2: which was massive in their history. It's a good nose.
Speaker 2: He's obviously a great coach and.
Speaker 4: He's on them over the Queenslanders.
Speaker 2: Isn't he.
Speaker 5: I think he's great. If you guys like hat and
Speaker 5: you needed a New South Wales coach to kick your
Speaker 5: Broncos for them to win the Grand find, I'm like,
Speaker 5: that's fine.
Speaker 2: Like you told me, there's no Sydney team in the
Speaker 2: Grand Final, but there's two Sydney coaches.
Speaker 1: That's true.
Speaker 2: Two Sydney coaches in the city.
Speaker 10: Coaches seeing a Syney before I went to Camberra, he
Speaker 10: came from the country.
Speaker 2: But camber New South put it that way there, you know,
Speaker 2: I didn't know.
Speaker 5: I think it's good. I think Madge because I recruit
Speaker 5: a lot of like general managers and ops managers and
Speaker 5: stuff really similar to like next Roll, and I don't
Speaker 5: envy their role because they have to come in fix
Speaker 5: all the crap. They're the horrible person that's making all
Speaker 5: the changes. You know I didn't envy Madge's role.
Speaker 2: Am I getting it right when I say that form
Speaker 2: we can with teammates. Yeah, well yes, at the same time, right.
Speaker 10: Yeah, there's that famous footage of Bellamy that they run
Speaker 10: on Fox every time where he was like the play
Speaker 10: got the ring and he's got the clean jersey and
Speaker 10: he's running around with it with the trap and they
Speaker 10: always put it on everything and he just he just
Speaker 10: shakes his head.
Speaker 2: He did playing one after that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Sans get credit for that because was.
Speaker 2: The coach who ironically was replaced Madge at the Tigers
Speaker 2: to add that whole wonderful uh eleven year streak that
Speaker 2: Madges had the only black bottles at the Tigers, one
Speaker 2: everywhere else, and he might win a Brisbane was a winner.
Speaker 2: The guy's a winner.
Speaker 1: And you know what he does something that that other
Speaker 1: coaches can't do, get bigger guys in a room and
Speaker 1: control them by the end. Because apparently it was a
Speaker 1: rocky ride this year.
Speaker 4: What it was I'm.
Speaker 2: Happy about it is that all this criticism he copped
Speaker 2: about taking him out on a cruise or on a
Speaker 2: camp or whatever.
Speaker 1: That's buzz I heard people.
Speaker 2: Have to throw ship is it true that they brought
Speaker 2: in a crisis manager this year.
Speaker 1: I had that on end, but I know that they
Speaker 1: turned I didn't even know.
Speaker 2: There was such thing as a crisis manager. I thought
Speaker 2: the manager's job was to manage a crisis manager.
Speaker 5: But I think they can.
Speaker 2: I get access to a crisis a crisis manager. We
Speaker 2: have we have cakes at work tomorrow. If it's the
Speaker 2: wrong case show Oh no, you got to bring a
Speaker 2: corodinated crisis manager.
Speaker 1: Got to bring one. Did you? Did you get that
Speaker 1: reporter as we'll tee up there. But the crisis manager, no,
Speaker 1: I know.
Speaker 5: That they They did a bit of a turnover last
Speaker 5: year during all the water stuff in the Broncos, like
Speaker 5: you know, all the positions. Their crisis manager would just
Speaker 5: be like a PR. And I've recruited and worked with
Speaker 5: people like that before and it's wild like PR people,
Speaker 5: if you're like remove this, this, this like it just happens.
Speaker 2: Walters. He made a lot of changes that put this
Speaker 2: rister together.
Speaker 1: A good coach and.
Speaker 4: George find this crisis manager because I think they needed
Speaker 4: Since twenty twelve, they're always in chrisis crisis.
Speaker 2: Our one, Our one ended up going with the age pension.
Speaker 4: You're right, Nick Walters did make some big moves. Yeah,
Speaker 4: he got rid of he cut a lot of the fat.
Speaker 4: He said, you know, I don't want you, don't want
Speaker 4: you when he capt a lot of stick out of it.
Speaker 1: And the really team when Madge walked in, there was
Speaker 1: it was the team. Was it was things, it was
Speaker 1: it was the thing, but it was it was the
Speaker 1: Walters team. He wanted to put it together. So there's
Speaker 1: no changes and it's not going to be any changes.
Speaker 1: So yeah, so yeah, another thing that has done a
Speaker 1: good job. So Carrigan's back with after two weeks rest.
Speaker 4: Huge, that's a huge inclusion.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is a massive inclusion because he's been rested
Speaker 2: for two weeks as well. Yeah, he's healthy.
Speaker 4: So apparently lock On Galvins wopped himself as well to Melbourne.
Speaker 4: So I can play final that won't taking.
Speaker 2: So what does everyone think is going to happen this
Speaker 2: Sunday at seven thirty seven thirty doesn't normally kick off
Speaker 2: for eight by the way, will they're also lobbying for
Speaker 2: an afternoon Grand final in the next redial.
Speaker 4: After the two videos? Yeah, so what we're gonna wait
Speaker 4: till twenty twenty eight?
Speaker 2: Probably yeah, two more years, that's if it even goes through.
Speaker 2: But it's been overwhelming support for it, he said. He
Speaker 2: said he's going to happen. I read his article. He
Speaker 2: wrote it last week. That's going to have been a
Speaker 2: non negotiable week. Doesn't next ye, But we've got to
Speaker 2: wait for the next Yeah, I can't wait to see
Speaker 2: that again. I missed the three o'clock kickoff for everyone exactly.
Speaker 2: I don't think it'll be three. I think it'll be
Speaker 2: aout five.
Speaker 11: That's better than better than still like it's midway four o'clock. Yeah,
Speaker 11: it's too late, man, sweet, that's not too late. The
Speaker 11: next day is probably how line know?
Speaker 4: You know what they've done. Now, If they do it
Speaker 4: at four o'clock, that means the women's rugby league has
Speaker 4: to play two and then the other one has to
Speaker 4: play at eleven You have nineties?
Speaker 2: Yeah, there was eleven one and three, right, that's right? Yeah,
Speaker 2: eleven thirty one and three. Yeah, because I used to
Speaker 2: watch Para with the president's coming.
Speaker 1: President there then the reserve.
Speaker 5: Because do you guys have Monday off?
Speaker 2: Yes? Do you have Monday off as well?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Seven thirty is very late, and if you guys.
Speaker 1: Will remember what a six year old and yeah, and
Speaker 1: that's what I was alluding to.
Speaker 5: Seven thirty.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess what I was.
Speaker 4: I never had but savings this week, so there's coins
Speaker 4: and yeah, they get that, lots of get that surturday
Speaker 4: at eight thirty there. Oh no, it's after the game.
Speaker 4: It's after the it's Saturday night, Saturday nights, so it's
Speaker 4: eight thirty coins, land time, seven thirty time thirty Oh
Speaker 4: so it's before we're one out, four go forward, so.
Speaker 1: You get at six thirty two.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's perfect.
Speaker 2: I remember. I remember because I remember because a New
Speaker 2: Year's Eve last Year's Eve straight after midnight and I
Speaker 2: got on the phone for about an hour until her
Speaker 2: news eve, which came at one am our time, so
Speaker 2: we're one hour in front. I hate that lights over.
Speaker 1: I hate that.
Speaker 5: It's horrible when I traveled to Sydney, even though it's
Speaker 5: only an hour during daylight.
Speaker 2: Savings, like just it just cut a way for it. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I think a finished work out, play the back nine.
Speaker 1: I think you've got a more sun than us any
Speaker 1: way too, but it's too much for me, Like nine
Speaker 1: o'clock at sometimes it's you know what I mean?
Speaker 2: So he's going to win on Sunday. What's going to
Speaker 2: happen to what's going to happen?
Speaker 1: Have you got a coin?
Speaker 4: It's a toss of a coin.
Speaker 2: This one, it's it's a tough one to pick. I
Speaker 2: think I think Storm haven't been anywhere near their best.
Speaker 2: I think the Broncos are slightly lucky to be there.
Speaker 2: They've had some couple of close calls in the past
Speaker 2: two weeks. I don't know what to expect. Refuse he
Speaker 2: called the Broncos team saying he doesn't like him, They're arrogant.
Speaker 2: I'm sure Bellamie would have loved that.
Speaker 5: He said we were stuck up in paying house. Was like,
Speaker 5: I don't really pay attention. But he's like, we'll see
Speaker 5: what happened.
Speaker 1: That's a question. I have a eighty minutes. I've being
Speaker 1: honestly over eighty minutes. Last week, did you did you
Speaker 1: think Broncos was a better thing? Honestly, I don't think
Speaker 1: they were in the last week.
Speaker 5: I don't think they were.
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. The victory is the victory. It doesn't
Speaker 1: matter how you get the victory. But have a ready
Speaker 1: minutes because I think I think for two weeks now
Speaker 1: they haven't been the better team.
Speaker 2: I've already minutes.
Speaker 5: I feel like Reynolds was you don't have to be no,
Speaker 5: you don't have to be no.
Speaker 1: You don't have to be no.
Speaker 5: I feel like they struggled to adjust back to playing
Speaker 5: with Reynolds and Man.
Speaker 2: Like I think his name the same, his name in
Speaker 2: the same lineup.
Speaker 1: I just saw that.
Speaker 2: Now I'm shocked he didn't put Well, he's still my
Speaker 2: thing straight back in. I would have put Man at six,
Speaker 2: and I want to to put Hunt either at nine
Speaker 2: or on the bench to come n.
Speaker 4: He's the best number nine in that team.
Speaker 2: I would have put.
Speaker 1: I think he took him a bit a bit well
Speaker 1: to to sort of warm up Man, so I would
Speaker 1: have put him straight in. But anyway, God, I just love.
Speaker 5: To see Arthur's play one more time. I know he's
Speaker 5: the eighteenth man, but I just love him, like to
Speaker 5: kick out.
Speaker 2: Is his contract money?
Speaker 5: He can't, he hasn't played for ages, but I just
Speaker 5: love to see him like on the field. I don't
Speaker 5: want anyone to get hurt, but I don't know. I
Speaker 5: would say that Walsh was off last week, Reynolds was
Speaker 5: tired like Stags was not, and This is why I
Speaker 5: struggled with Stags because money loves him. But I'm like,
Speaker 5: he takes longer to get in gear.
Speaker 2: But he was good. He was one of your best.
Speaker 2: He was good.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what. He didn't get at opportunities, but
Speaker 1: the opportunities he got he took. And you keep on
Speaker 1: saying that that Reese was off. Ree wasn't off. He
Speaker 1: was trying hard as hard as he could. But they adjusted.
Speaker 1: He's running lanes, so he might have taken him a
Speaker 1: little bit longer because remember last two weeks ago, he
Speaker 1: had the case of the he had the keys of
Speaker 1: the castle. He was first, the first man off the
Speaker 1: off the rock. He was his ball, so he controlled
Speaker 1: the game.
Speaker 5: He just seemed hesitant, even ma'am coming on in the
Speaker 5: first couple of like in the first ten twenty minutes,
Speaker 5: he seemed quite hesitant, like he just.
Speaker 2: Took him all six weeks he hasn't played.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so I think it was not. I don't know.
Speaker 5: I probably wouldn't have brought them in for that, you
Speaker 5: know what I mean, Like, you know they've they've been
Speaker 5: going well, and I know they had to make adjustments
Speaker 5: because of Carragan and Walters too. I wouldn't say they
Speaker 5: were the better team. I wouldn't say what they were
Speaker 5: lucky either.
Speaker 1: No, they weren't lucky. No, no, no, they were lucky.
Speaker 2: They won the game. They won the game. It doesn't
Speaker 2: matter how good you already.
Speaker 1: I just want I just wanted to ask over eighty
Speaker 1: minutes if I didn't think, that doesn't matter.
Speaker 5: I feel because on Sunday I wasn't sure, and at
Speaker 5: one point I was like, no, they're not going to win.
Speaker 5: I feel like looking at Broncos compared to Storm in
Speaker 5: terms of how they've played, I feel like Broncos will win.
Speaker 5: And that's me and I'm very like, you know, wary
Speaker 5: and and and the way they're.
Speaker 1: Going to do it, the specific way they're going to
Speaker 1: do it.
Speaker 5: Storm dissimilar to Penrith or even Bulldogs.
Speaker 1: Where they have a very system based system.
Speaker 5: It's very obvious and once the guys get used to
Speaker 5: playing them. I mean, you've got to remember that those
Speaker 5: boys are played with Monster and Grant during Origin too,
Speaker 5: so they know their moves and everything else. It's just predictable,
Speaker 5: right the way that Storm played. If perhaps off, you know,
Speaker 5: if something happens with Hughes and we're not even relying
Speaker 5: on that anyway. But if they can't get their head
Speaker 5: in the game, Broncos will take advantage. Or if something
Speaker 5: happens like the Cleary Mardern thing, that will just fire
Speaker 5: the boys up.
Speaker 1: Anyway, it won't happen, I think, won't let that happen.
Speaker 5: Well, Nelson, Nelson's not on the same.
Speaker 2: Nelson's what do you think that's going to evolve?
Speaker 4: Look, I saw an interesting stat a couple of stats actually,
Speaker 4: the Storm of title of fifteen players who played twenty
Speaker 4: one Grand finals between them, right, and then you've got
Speaker 4: the Broncos of twelve players who played Ford and Grand finals.
Speaker 4: So there's a lot of Grand final experience in there
Speaker 4: with a lot of these players. Because I don't forget
Speaker 4: Melbourne were in it last year. In the year before
Speaker 4: was Broncos. So they're coming off grand final loss. So
Speaker 4: they're both going to be motivated. That's what makes it
Speaker 4: a hard game to pick because the motivation factor is
Speaker 4: so high for both they they're both desperate.
Speaker 2: The two clubs at the ben News position you know
Speaker 2: and know exactly exactly what.
Speaker 4: To do and how to do it exactly. The cattle
Speaker 4: is similar, man, there's not much you can't release. I
Speaker 4: think the I think Broncos have got the edge with
Speaker 4: pain House and Carrigan up against thereforewards, the fun is good,
Speaker 4: but he's not a paint House. But Painhouse didn't touch
Speaker 4: the ball much in the first half.
Speaker 1: Is he niggling?
Speaker 2: Is he injured?
Speaker 4: Is he playing with needles?
Speaker 2: That's what I'm worried about.
Speaker 4: All he could lose, He could be out in fifteen minutes.
Speaker 1: His is But guess what did you see what he
Speaker 1: did in the second half? True, I'll say it again,
Speaker 1: he won the game for him. He did it. He destroyed,
Speaker 1: He broake their heart. He took you know what I say.
Speaker 1: Pen used to take souls. He took of soul takers,
Speaker 1: and they got their souls taken. They had nothing, They
Speaker 1: had nothing in their tank, They had nothing in their soul,
Speaker 1: in their heart in the That's what won their soul
Speaker 1: there had you know what I mean?
Speaker 5: But can can can compare the soul and heart and
Speaker 5: great of each team? Which would you say has more
Speaker 5: of the.
Speaker 1: In terms of the Grand Final? Well, my question to
Speaker 1: you is what would you back a system or brilliance?
Speaker 2: It's it's it's a tough it's a tough one. I'll
Speaker 2: back back the system overall, but the Brilliants can bring
Speaker 2: you undone.
Speaker 1: They showed us two weeks in the road.
Speaker 4: I'll back Brilliance because if it comes off, the system
Speaker 4: doesn't work.
Speaker 2: If the Brilliance doesn't come off.
Speaker 4: That's the things the first half it's gamble, yeah, but
Speaker 4: Brilliant is a tough one.
Speaker 2: Can switch like that.
Speaker 4: Systems can't. They get lost, you know, they just stick stick,
Speaker 4: stick stick, and then when it start working, stick stick
Speaker 4: and start working.
Speaker 1: That's that's what Melbourne do. Nathan's got four rings, says
Speaker 1: that the systems work. Nathan's got four rings.
Speaker 4: But he does adjustment slight little adjustments. The kettle is
Speaker 4: a little bit different each year. Melbourne's at the same
Speaker 4: kettle most.
Speaker 2: Of the years.
Speaker 5: Yeah, he's had and he had a different team in
Speaker 5: those Grand Finals as well. But systems, if there is
Speaker 5: it's like the cog in the wheel. If one of
Speaker 5: the cogs are out, they're like, I don't know what
Speaker 5: to do. Whereas that whole we need to dig in
Speaker 5: and just win and not if we win, how are
Speaker 5: we going to do that. Broncos have shown adaptability all
Speaker 5: year in terms of players.
Speaker 1: My question to you then, and it's a hypothetical. You know,
Speaker 1: the first half of last week's game, or what happened
Speaker 1: if Pende have played at that standard for eighty minutes
Speaker 1: sixty I'm asking a question. Or Nathan took that two points,
Speaker 1: which which he declined.
Speaker 4: But Melbourne's got a similar system and we saw Roosters
Speaker 4: score forty points in one half. I've never seen that
Speaker 4: ever happened with Bellamy, and that only happened three weeks ago,
Speaker 4: three games ago. So I think Brisbane, if the Roosters
Speaker 4: can do it, why can't the Brisbane do it? What
Speaker 4: can't Brisbane do?
Speaker 1: I can easily that I can. Oh no, I'm just
Speaker 1: putting Melody's going to win.
Speaker 4: I just think if Brisbane, if Brisbane get the lead,
Speaker 4: Melbourne is just going to ship the bed.
Speaker 1: But if Melbourne win, it's going to be tough.
Speaker 2: To get place.
Speaker 5: We beat them three rounds ago as well.
Speaker 1: So I'm going to you one thing, Okay, if Melbourn's
Speaker 1: up a twelve nil or forteen not happening, they're going
Speaker 1: to shut it down because that's because no, no, no,
Speaker 1: no doesn't work right, doesn't work ground They were great.
Speaker 2: Jerem Hughes is there if he stays fit. If that's
Speaker 2: if Hughes there.
Speaker 1: And and things that Harry Grant to So so if
Speaker 1: fourteen affording up and it might not happen, I mean
Speaker 1: Broncos will before and then and then Melbourn's going to shoot.
Speaker 2: What else is interesting? You've got Brisbane. A lot of
Speaker 2: this team is carrying the Grandfather lost pain of two
Speaker 2: years ago, and a lot of this Melbourne team is
Speaker 2: carrying the lost from last year exactly, players like Harry
Speaker 2: Grant and Reecee Walsh And I think I don't know Monster,
Speaker 2: but there's a lot of this place haven't actually won
Speaker 2: to follow yet. You think they have? Could you mix
Speaker 2: I don't think Harry Grant's one way yet. I don't
Speaker 2: think so, because you kind of mix them up with
Speaker 2: the teams they're in. They used to be big names,
Speaker 2: but there's a lot of players that haven't done it yet.
Speaker 4: You know what someone said, I think buzz someone said
Speaker 4: on the on the in all three sixties, Monster's never
Speaker 4: won a Grand Final without Cameron Smith.
Speaker 12: Yeah, really, so that's why that's what's motivating him. Okay,
Speaker 12: but at least he's oneok I have really I have
Speaker 12: no idea. There's so many hypotheticals. The only the only
Speaker 12: thing I can point out is how they both teams
Speaker 12: technically play and like Brisbane. Like I said, they're going
Speaker 12: to get fifteen minutes of Brisbane Brisbane playing.
Speaker 2: Is that going to be enough?
Speaker 1: Or can can Melbourne sustain it, hold it and come
Speaker 1: over the top? I don't know.
Speaker 2: I don't know really.
Speaker 5: I think I think with Bronco is something that you were.
Speaker 5: They're very unpredictable, so you can't even go if this happens,
Speaker 5: this could happen like could we call what happened in
Speaker 5: could we called what happened in Canberra?
Speaker 2: I think I think Melbourne will win. I think cred
Speaker 2: will be the difference.
Speaker 1: Well, I know you I know one one thing, one
Speaker 1: hundred percent watching this Melbourne to the ground. They're going
Speaker 1: to under ground one They're going to under ground. So
Speaker 1: if Broncos can get over in the ground and you know,
Speaker 1: paint huss you can't stop paint house. But I think
Speaker 1: they will manage paint huts.
Speaker 2: So let's go with the tips. Tens obviously tipping Risbond,
Speaker 2: who are you tipping? Leaning on Melbourne only because of Bellamy,
Speaker 2: but I honestly, I don't know. I'm going Melbourne because
Speaker 2: of systems. That's that's I'm a big I think, you
Speaker 2: know what, could just have one of those days and
Speaker 2: switch and bang and scored talk honestly, could just you know,
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 4: That's a tough one.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm going to go.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with Tan. We're gonna do it, man,
Speaker 2: We're gonna do it.
Speaker 4: You know what I want, Reece is going to spring
Speaker 4: something out of.
Speaker 6: You know what I want?
Speaker 1: I want?
Speaker 2: I want.
Speaker 1: I want double extra time. I want extra time the
Speaker 1: Golden Point. That's what I want. I want to care
Speaker 1: who's after that. I want extra time in Golden Point.
Speaker 1: That's what I want.
Speaker 2: Really, I just I just if Brisbane win. I hope
Speaker 2: it's late. I don't want to see let me lose
Speaker 2: your ship?
Speaker 1: Can you imagine?
Speaker 5: And then you're gonna watch the conference.
Speaker 2: And now I'll ever match Ricky Stewart when it comes.
Speaker 2: He's okay in the conference one minute forty four seconds.
Speaker 2: Who's that, Ricky?
Speaker 1: No? No, I mean Craig is usually okay.
Speaker 2: Hold hold last week, Ricky Stewart's press conference is one
Speaker 2: minute forty four seconds was just said down, got up?
Speaker 4: Can I can ask a question, what's what do you
Speaker 4: think is going to happen to the team that loses? Like,
Speaker 4: how's Melbourne's mindset going to be having two losses in
Speaker 4: a regret?
Speaker 2: I see them both in the top four next year.
Speaker 4: Well, directing will mentally screw them like Brisbane.
Speaker 2: Se penything up there as well.
Speaker 1: I can answer you the question. I think Broncos are
Speaker 1: the more the emotional team. So imagine'e gonna have a
Speaker 1: among his job trying to bring them back. Okay, the
Speaker 1: way the way the Melbourne are and the way they
Speaker 1: get coached. Okay, once they're once January comes and it's
Speaker 1: so hot down in Melbourne and they're burning because if
Speaker 1: you just run how many hills? Okay, and they're hurting,
Speaker 1: they're going to forget about it really okay, because apparently.
Speaker 5: I don't think cost will hurt that bad.
Speaker 1: We've had very very an emotional team. They're very emotional team.
Speaker 5: But like we've had a new coach like we've had
Speaker 5: and even Mariss that like to get we had a
Speaker 5: point where we wanted to get to and we've gotten
Speaker 5: there and we have like a goal. I think even
Speaker 5: watching press conferences, I think sometimes when they win, they're like, ah,
Speaker 5: you know what I mean, Like I think, I think.
Speaker 2: I think when the Broncos, for me, I grew up
Speaker 2: watching them be invincible. They've lost their last two Grand finals.
Speaker 2: There's two or three.
Speaker 4: I just I just remember Saint George lost too grand
Speaker 4: finals in a row and the second one they lost
Speaker 4: to hurt them a lot and they didn't recover. And
Speaker 4: they're a good team then. And that's what I'm thinking
Speaker 4: with Melbourne, because they've been together for a while. If
Speaker 4: they lose to in a row, it's going to hurt
Speaker 4: them more than you think. It's not easy to come
Speaker 4: back from. Whereas Broncos, You're right, they're new, they've got
Speaker 4: a new coach, he's brand new, new ideas. They'll bounce back.
Speaker 4: Whereas Melbourne maybe it's going to be all of a sudden,
Speaker 4: Billin's going to doubt himself.
Speaker 2: I think. I don't say that. I think they all
Speaker 2: bounce back, like even like for.
Speaker 5: Me, like for them to get to this point with
Speaker 5: a new coach and the insanity of their year, I'm happy,
Speaker 5: like I'm so happy.
Speaker 2: Of course.
Speaker 5: This will just be amazing for so many reasons. But
Speaker 5: I'm happy right now sitting where I'm sitting.
Speaker 2: Is that the sentiment up there in Brisbane?
Speaker 11: Yeah?
Speaker 3: I think so.
Speaker 5: I think I think there are a lot of diehards
Speaker 5: right and for me, like you know, there's a lot
Speaker 5: of of course, like for Storm too and other teams,
Speaker 5: like there's you know, that blind faith which we all
Speaker 5: rely on. But I'm probably a bit more removed from that,
Speaker 5: you know than most people, because like I was talking
Speaker 5: to a couple of people and I was like going
Speaker 5: into the intricacies of how the guys are playing, and
Speaker 5: I was like and they were like, well, obviously you
Speaker 5: study this for the potty and stuff, and I'm like, yeah,
Speaker 5: but also have to look at it really impassively to go.
Speaker 5: Are we like a team? I think we're more prepared
Speaker 5: than twenty twenty three and I think they have more
Speaker 5: They've got a better leader in match. But I think
Speaker 5: the general consensus is like that nervous hope, you know
Speaker 5: that kind of like can I hope we win? You
Speaker 5: know what I mean?
Speaker 1: I'll tell you something. Also, Jail Sunday, seeing the pictures
Speaker 1: from Queensland and feeling it through the TV. We don't
Speaker 1: get nothing like that. We were really beside Origin and
Speaker 1: I don't even know if we get that in Origin.
Speaker 1: We really thank anything as good as you get there
Speaker 1: in US. So you know what, you was a very
Speaker 1: lucky year up there. Seriously, we didn't get nothing like that.
Speaker 2: Did you watch?
Speaker 1: The game? Was amazing? It was annoying. You can feel
Speaker 1: it for the TV. You feel the emotion for the TV.
Speaker 1: It was amazing.
Speaker 4: But if you get a game like that and you've
Speaker 4: got Saint George and Paramatter or Paramatter and Canterbury or something,
Speaker 4: the two Sydney teams playing, you're going to feel a lot.
Speaker 4: Sydney will be buzzing just.
Speaker 2: As much I missed. Yeah, it was the was the Bulldogs,
Speaker 2: those big those days.
Speaker 1: Actually, you know what a paramount of stadium if we
Speaker 1: had a game people Para or Saint George.
Speaker 2: Remember that premium in that we went to nine eighty
Speaker 2: thousand people. There was also yeah, I mean.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's just unfortunate.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, teams are shit.
Speaker 1: It was fun.
Speaker 2: It was fun. What else you offer us? Uh? How
Speaker 2: do you? I just got the one who's got for us?
Speaker 4: Oh look, I was just going to go did you
Speaker 4: want to do the super Leg or do you want
Speaker 4: me to go run through the nerl W.
Speaker 1: You've got the nrol W covered. I've got a team, team, got.
Speaker 4: The Queensland Cup. I'll go through those results. Burly Bears
Speaker 4: twenty two be the North Devils. North Devil so Burly
Speaker 4: Bears go into the State Championship Cup for next for
Speaker 4: this weekend and the Warriors thirty up against the Dragons twelve.
Speaker 4: So the Warriors will meet the Burly Bears in that
Speaker 4: grade final.
Speaker 1: Should be a good game.
Speaker 4: Any predictions, George, you watch these games?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: I did, actually hard to watch. Yeah, you know what,
Speaker 1: sorry to I got this guy. I got this Warriors.
Speaker 1: If you look at the team, if you look at
Speaker 1: the team, but the first graders.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know who ripped them everyone apart on the
Speaker 4: weekend Tanner boyd for the Warriors. He was amazing. Apparently
Speaker 4: killed everyone.
Speaker 5: Burly Bears. I think you're a idel.
Speaker 1: I watched Burley, I watched burle on.
Speaker 5: They have they've got a pretty stacked team, but they've
Speaker 5: got a lot of like you know, some of the
Speaker 5: other guys as well.
Speaker 1: But I.
Speaker 5: Maney played on the team last year. Just the way
Speaker 5: that they coached them and stuff. And I was talking
Speaker 5: to Great Bird a couple of weeks ago and I
Speaker 5: was like, honey, I'm going to put money in next
Speaker 5: year into a team and he was like, because obviously
Speaker 5: it's friends of Todd Kenney, but where Todd coaches is
Speaker 5: too far and I was like, oh yeah. I was like,
Speaker 5: their dad wants them to go to Burly Bears and
Speaker 5: Greg's like no, and I was like, I know, I'd
Speaker 5: rather send them to like run Away Bay or somewhere else,
Speaker 5: but Burly Bears is not. It's just real grubby, so
Speaker 5: I'm not Yeah, it'sn't like their style, right.
Speaker 4: They're good, they're good good, but they're just if like yeah, okay,
Speaker 4: let's go to Europe.
Speaker 2: Now. This is Siple League.
Speaker 4: Leeds played Wakefield Trinity in one of the finals there
Speaker 4: knockout finals. Leeds won twenty six to four to ten
Speaker 4: against Wakefield Trinity and in the other game was Brad after.
Speaker 2: Well you missed the louclist jerseys in the world.
Speaker 4: Sorry, the ugliest in the jersey in the world. Pods team,
Speaker 4: Sorry mate, the Pods team. I was going to bring
Speaker 4: him up the next week's games. So they won twenty
Speaker 4: six to ten. After that, we had the Leeds Rhinos fourteen,
Speaker 4: were leading twelve six at a half time, but they
Speaker 4: went down to Saint Helens our team they won sixteen
Speaker 4: fourteen sixteen.
Speaker 1: Did you watch the end of that game?
Speaker 5: No, yeah, I did, because makes to me it was insane.
Speaker 2: It was just insane. And did you see he's through
Speaker 2: the money the money ball.
Speaker 5: Nockround Tristan Sailor.
Speaker 1: And let me tell you, the only reason that Saint
Speaker 1: Helens was in the game at all, Sniff, was Tristan Sailor.
Speaker 1: Please somebody bring Tristan back home.
Speaker 4: Bringing back home, George, did you just mention Maddie Lee's
Speaker 4: Maddie Lee's. I'll tell you what happened to Maddy Lee's.
Speaker 4: He had to go halfway through the game because his
Speaker 4: wife was giving labor. So one of the players from
Speaker 4: Saint Helen's had to run off because his wife was
Speaker 4: just visiting. He's one of their key players as well.
Speaker 4: So imagine being that halftime, you're losing down twelve to six.
Speaker 4: Coach goes, sorry, mate, you gotta go. Your wife's in labor. Anyway,
Speaker 4: maybe it's good that he left, because I ended up
Speaker 4: winning so Maddie Les can play in the Grand Final
Speaker 4: next year. Next week, so next week's games are the
Speaker 4: Wigan Warriors and Lee Leopards, the youngest team in the journeys.
Speaker 4: They'll play on one side and on the other side
Speaker 4: we've got hul Kingston Rovers who came first, playing up
Speaker 4: against St. Helen's the next one third of October. Fourth
Speaker 4: of October, Friday night. Their time is the first game
Speaker 4: and Saturday night our time is the their time is
Speaker 4: the second one. So what's that, George? Saturday morning someday.
Speaker 1: So Saturday morning at four thirty it starts and Sunday
Speaker 1: morning a bit earlier. What's your tips?
Speaker 2: Tell me?
Speaker 4: Who do you think is going to win those two games?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Interesting, Wig will beat Lee and yeah we wig him
Speaker 1: and wigam and whole KR. I can't see how Saint
Speaker 1: Helen's been challenging Whole k Are. Yeah, and look the game,
Speaker 1: the type game will be Lee and Wigan. But I
Speaker 1: just got this gut feeling the Wigan Wigan will win.
Speaker 4: Yeah, if games. If Lee does get their at the
Speaker 4: first time they're in the Grand Final.
Speaker 1: It's not the first time. It's been a long time
Speaker 1: because when when their coach took that Aussie coach. I
Speaker 1: took them roll running really lowly and he's built them
Speaker 1: up over the last few years.
Speaker 4: So just just to give you, just to give you
Speaker 4: guys a reminder that Lee Leopards have got testing you
Speaker 4: lockdowm Lamb. Yes, Isaac Leu and David Armstrong, they're the
Speaker 4: players that are in that team. So just they're the
Speaker 4: Aussie contingent.
Speaker 1: And Lamb and Lamb is their coach as well, Adrian Lamb.
Speaker 4: So ougust seem in the Jersey's got the Lamb brothers
Speaker 4: for the Lamb family, just like the Clearies.
Speaker 13: Yeah, but they're the Lee Leopards now in a real
Speaker 13: w Yes, what's t let's talk, let's go straight to
Speaker 13: the Grand Final. It's got going to go straight to
Speaker 13: the Grand Final.
Speaker 5: Close's Sharks, Yeah, we can go straight.
Speaker 2: You're talking about Shark. That was amazing. I was on
Speaker 2: the edge of my seat.
Speaker 5: I think they're lucky that Justin Kallaho could kick that day,
Speaker 5: like normally she's really good. Right, So guys, the score
Speaker 5: where it's like seventeen to sixteen, but Rooster is normally smashed,
Speaker 5: smash and then Bronx just destroy the.
Speaker 1: Knights destroyed the Knights and they didn't even play well.
Speaker 4: So we have is the Roosters undefeated?
Speaker 1: Yeah for two years? Yeah, for the whole season.
Speaker 4: They lost one game.
Speaker 2: I was forced to watch that game on seven.
Speaker 1: Sorry, I'm sorry. Uh so the grand Father we thought
Speaker 1: we're going to have Teas and the Dragons. What do
Speaker 1: you reckon?
Speaker 5: Well, we predicted this and like wasn't too.
Speaker 2: Hard to predict.
Speaker 14: I don't know.
Speaker 5: I like Ruth's it so good, but I feel I
Speaker 5: don't know. I actually can't pick it, and I know
Speaker 5: Broncos is I just I can't. I can't pick it
Speaker 5: on that last game.
Speaker 1: The Risters are so good, They're very good, but you
Speaker 1: can put them off their game. The best player on
Speaker 1: the field is a girl called Tamoka Upton. Full back
Speaker 1: for the broncost Isabel Kelly. Isabel Kelly, and the good
Speaker 1: thing about Isabel Kelly and and Jessica Jessica surges. They
Speaker 1: carry him out of bad ball really easy. And then
Speaker 1: once the Fawards get it, they're on the halfway and
Speaker 1: they're in that set of six, they're doing a taking kick.
Speaker 1: That's what that's what is the best team about the
Speaker 1: best thing about this team to make up. She's amazing.
Speaker 1: She's a very slight at all, but slight girl, but
Speaker 1: she's extremely quick. And what what's the best thing about Tamika?
Speaker 1: She understands rugby League. She can, she can, she looks
Speaker 1: and she can, she can read the pattern and she
Speaker 1: will inject.
Speaker 5: The surceagine imagine like a perdue was in his peak,
Speaker 5: Like that's well, he will get back to his peak.
Speaker 5: But that's what she's like. She's very, very experienced, like
Speaker 5: she's insane.
Speaker 1: Well, wherever she goes, she brings trophies. She brought a
Speaker 1: travied to Newcastle. She Travis to Newcastle and now now
Speaker 1: she's in Queensland.
Speaker 2: Now, my my.
Speaker 1: If you look at the two teams and how they
Speaker 1: went all year, you're going to say Roosters will win
Speaker 1: nine times out of ten.
Speaker 2: But guess what.
Speaker 1: I think it's going to be the other way. I
Speaker 1: think the Broncos will win. I think Tomka going to
Speaker 1: go off a rocker. I think what's her among who's
Speaker 1: gonna what's her name, Sory? I can't pronounce her name.
Speaker 1: That Manga is gonna get She's this center, massive, massive
Speaker 1: unit and Robinson and and my favorite player off the bench,
Speaker 1: the Italian international t I forget her name now you can.
Speaker 2: Come again.
Speaker 5: Froncos.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the Broncos.
Speaker 1: Halfunger anyway, but what position did she play? She's a
Speaker 1: backroll but role. But anyway, she will come on, She'll
Speaker 1: come on. She's she's one of those and also the solo.
Speaker 5: She played last year, she's last week.
Speaker 4: She's the sort of Nielsen top of player Destiny, Chelsea Leonardoozy,
Speaker 4: Cecioka and Shalom.
Speaker 5: You should watch it, Artie, Yeah, try pretty decent like that,
Speaker 5: like that. I've been watching it with the boys too,
Speaker 5: and they've kind of I know why they had Tana
Speaker 5: and the reading not in the wing George for Ross,
Speaker 5: So Artie, you can guarantee, like the top, Tana surges
Speaker 5: up to Johnson, Melly and Robinson and mad they all
Speaker 5: score tries every single game. They moved for some reason,
Speaker 5: they moved the Race's team around last week, and she's
Speaker 5: one of the best.
Speaker 1: I was alluding to Chelsea Lennar Doozy, so actually one
Speaker 1: of my favorite players, Chelsea Lennar Doozy.
Speaker 2: It's going to be a doozy.
Speaker 1: Honestly, this is going to be a tight game if
Speaker 1: they can reduce their mistakes. If they can reduce their mistakes,
Speaker 1: because obviously the girls make a little bit more mistakes.
Speaker 1: And I think the time they're playing almost four o'clock,
Speaker 1: it's going to get a little bit hot. So it's
Speaker 1: going to be a cracker of the game. I'm tipping
Speaker 1: the Broncos. I'm sure she's tipping the Broncos.
Speaker 2: Let's see what Bill Kelly she it's going to be.
Speaker 1: Actually, if if you're gonna watch any game, if you're
Speaker 1: gonna watch any game of an old w this is.
Speaker 2: The one to watch.
Speaker 4: Definitely, this is the one to watch. And the Broncos
Speaker 4: have lost one game.
Speaker 2: Yeah, very slightly, very slightly.
Speaker 1: You don't know, because I want to. I want to
Speaker 1: give a shout out to remember the French international lord. Yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: we to you to know we are. We interviewed a
Speaker 1: year and a half or two years ago a French
Speaker 1: international lady who was playing at the time for Wigham.
Speaker 1: We got her through the boy wander there and she
Speaker 1: got injured. Unfortunately, she went back back home. She went
Speaker 1: back to her club Ladda shell Shell. This year Lada
Speaker 1: Show won the domestic competition Aarti and they beat to lose,
Speaker 1: and this week they're playing in the cup final against Catalan,
Speaker 1: So all the best to loden and to finish off
Speaker 1: because next year we've got a World Cup year and
Speaker 1: and once rugby league is finished in a month, I'll
Speaker 1: be knocking on your door with my iPad, addie, because
Speaker 1: there's a tournament in Europe which can see of Jamaica, Serbia, Netherlands, Italy,
Speaker 1: Brazil and Greece the second tier and we've got to
Speaker 1: fight to stay in the second.
Speaker 4: Ki Yeah, okay, so there's nothing, no chance to make
Speaker 4: a World Cup is second tier, yeah.
Speaker 1: We have, we're out of it, but it's got a
Speaker 1: chance of making the first tier. I think none of
Speaker 1: these TEMs will make anything, but that's my opinion. But
Speaker 1: I enjoy watching mistake of Thorns.
Speaker 4: And Georgia that I'll probably lose to that those guys
Speaker 4: as well.
Speaker 1: That's that's that's us from No n Roll. The fun
Speaker 1: part of the next We drag team.
Speaker 2: Next week we're obviously going to review the Grand Final
Speaker 2: and that will be our season finale with.
Speaker 1: The Team of the Year and some some of the
Speaker 1: fun questions like.
Speaker 2: You know, the.
Speaker 14: The season of the season, Yeah, the the best hair style,
Speaker 14: best hastyles, the most controversial man, most controvers.
Speaker 1: The best the best acting performance, A few we're thinking
Speaker 1: of a few things. The best performance by an actor
Speaker 1: or a rugby league player.
Speaker 2: Forty halftime.
Speaker 1: So I'll actually I'll send you use all those questions
Speaker 1: again from the same as last year ten.
Speaker 2: You're what were we talking about earlier today? I forget
Speaker 2: And then you said something to me and I said,
Speaker 2: I said, you want sympathy from an ill supporter? You will,
Speaker 2: I said, the last time I celebrated you will one. Wow.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I was saying, we need this.
Speaker 8: I need to win Origin and the Grand Final this
Speaker 8: year imagined, imagine before the other, start with the Queensland
Speaker 8: Cup and the and I feel exactly man I feel,
Speaker 8: and what.
Speaker 2: The Queensland, Queensland queens alight. Well, on that note, enjoy
Speaker 2: the Grand Final, everyone enjoyed the big one, and we'll
Speaker 2: be here to wrap it up. Happy rugby league, bad time,
Speaker 2: the same back channel next week.
Speaker 1: Happy rugby league, everybody, Happy rugby league guys.
Speaker 2: Good night, bye bye,
