Fact, keeping the faith like we do week in week

(00:35):
are back connection again this weekend across the Tasman on
the GC. This time they played the Gold Coast Titans
five o'clock kickoff on Saturday afternoon, joining us on the
show This morning Warrior's second Rome Marata Nokory Morning Maratta. Look,
I'm good. More importantly, how are you doing after that
match last weekend?

Speaker 1 (00:57):
Honestly, but for mas, I had a couple of days
to get over there. So where did it go this week?

Speaker 2 (01:06):
Fourteen's up through the first twenty you were looking good
against the storm finally going down thirty eight twenty four.
What was said in the ship afterwards by Weiby.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
Where we keipped it? Pretty simple? Yes, you know we
kind of took the foot off the throat towards the
back end of the half and to kind of gets him,
you know, a sneak up on us, so you know
where we just give us a dire message, you know,
just keep it simple and to concentrate, and you know
there's little lessons in those ends where we you know,
kind of clocked off of it, and you know that's

(01:39):
when album struck to you know, it was a little
simple and I guess you know, you know what the
result and obviously go awever, school kind of part of
the boys and you know therefore that we you know,
put them on last seven.

Speaker 2 (01:55):
You training this week? What's it? What's it been like
if you stepped it up a week bit now more
concentration on you know, working for the full ninety minutes.

Speaker 1 (02:04):
Yeah, all of us. What I actually pretty saw the
last couple of days. So you know, every time you're
from you're always going to feel like that a couple
of days after the game. But you know, we we
were done the last you know, two days today and yesterday,
and you know our full focus is now on Gold first,
and you know we're just eager to get up there
and you know, if you got.

Speaker 2 (02:24):
To win, you guys, your bodies take a real hammering
during the course of a match. What stage of the
week does your body start sort of getting back to
feeling close to one hundred percent.

Speaker 1 (02:36):
Uh, It usually takes a couple of days and you know,
we had our first session yesterday and you know there
was a couple of sore bodies around, they joining, you know,
a lot of those boys what they're ant to do
whatever they needed to do to prepare for our main
session which was today. So yeah, usually a couple of
two three days post post a match, you know, you
tend to get a sold bodies, and you know yesterday

(02:59):
was no different.

Speaker 2 (03:00):
And for you personally, you've only suited up I think
four times this year. How's your body holding up?

Speaker 1 (03:06):
Yeah, it's a little weird. I'm trying to you know,
let alone preferful games, but then you know, also trying
to physically prefer yourself. That's another thing. So you know,
the body's been holding up pretty well. It's more than
other guys you know, who have been playing week in
week out. So you know, body's been pretty good at
the moment. But you know, still need to stay on

(03:26):
top of, you know a lot of things.

Speaker 2 (03:29):
So you're against the Titans this weekend. What do they
do well that you'll have to watch out for because
they beat you in that ANZAC Day Test, didn't they.

Speaker 1 (03:37):
Yeah, you know that you kind of want to remember that, Yeah, patterns,
there's just that team. You know, you are got to
be on your game. You're always got to be concentrated.
And they remembered throughout the whole eighty minutes because you
know the time do you think that you can clock off?
Those are the teams that you know tend to, you know,

(03:58):
strike when those moments have And so we've got to
be on a game for the four eighty minutes. And
you know, we've been working real hard to make sure that,
you know, what happened last week doesn't happen again.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
And David Fafita, he's a guy you'll have to watch.
You might have to mark him a bit over the weekend.
How do you stop or contain a player like that
close to the line.

Speaker 1 (04:18):
Well, sometimes you got to do your best social cures
like him. But you know, we've we've tained real well
this week. You know, we've had a little look at
what they do in terms of game plans and all that.
But you know we've got a we've got our own
game plans on how we can you know, limit his opportunities.
And you know, I guess that's Shorty's solemn when he

(04:40):
sees you left the feet in front of him. So yeah,
we'll buy that homework and comes Saturday, I have to
we can piece all together.

Speaker 2 (04:47):
Do you feel a bit more weight on your shoulders
this week? I mean, Mitch Barnett, Court Caple, they're out
of they're on origin duty to hold down the pack.

Speaker 1 (04:55):
But more pressure on you, Yeah, a little bit, but
not too much, you know. I'm just you know, I
go out there and you know I got all my
my beast, I guess, and you know we've got other
guys who can fill in their role as well, So
you know whoever, you know, it's set in to those
positions and you really we've got full confidence. You know
they're going to do the exact same jobs as well,

(05:16):
you know those boys that have left us, So I
mean a super proud of what they've gone on to
go do, Go and do it for the next two weeks.
But you know, I have you know, you know Walks
is going to do a job. And you know Kicky
Laban when he comes off to the field there, you
know he's going to pretty much bring the same impact
that Minny and Kpell do.

Speaker 2 (05:36):
Where does a trip to the Gold Coast right In
terms of away games, do you like playing there.

Speaker 1 (05:42):
That's one of the games you have still got on
the map and kind of you know, pas pens before
you actually past the uniform. So that's one of those
just like you know, you can't get too caught up
and you know the whole getting over there and putting
the feed up is we do have a job to
do while we get over there, so you know we'll
get away from football once we touchdown there, but you
know when to focus on what we need to do

(06:06):
and you know we get two points comes today.

Speaker 2 (06:10):
Yep, that's what we that's what we're holding a faith with. Marata.
