Speaker 1 (00:00):
Here at the home of the Hornby Panthers in Leslie
Park and Hornby and I've got I guess you'd have
to say a legend of the club game here in
Canterbury Cory Lurie on the back of what was a
tremendous Grand Final on Sunday just gone. For those of
you who don't know what happened there, Hornby skipped out
to a twenty mier lead at halftime and he ended
(00:23):
up winning a game by twenty points to eighteen. Corey.
Thanks for your time. How's the heart rate after Sunday?
Speaker 2 (00:32):
It was pretty calm at halftime?
Speaker 3 (00:33):
If I was honest, that last fifteen months wrapped up
to Karliak charist with levels.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
But was it wrapped up again once that fine Russell?
Speaker 1 (00:45):
Look, I can tell you I was on the sideline
and all the people around me, whether you're a horse
or supporter or a Hornby supporter, I think we're all
heart rates. We're going through the roof at the time
and what happened, I mean, you know what a great
start twenty nil at a half time.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
Yeah, we talked about starting where I want to put
them young boys and experienced boys under pressure and that's
what we've done.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
I thought they for a couple of bads in the sets,
which helped our cause.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
And I just caught a couple of nice tries on
the back of that, and then before everything was nice,
and I thought we'd come into halftime and we had
a good half time.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
And there's nothing Due didn't say put us off our game.
We just came out. I thought we had That first
set was a good first set.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
We carried the ball well, and then I think we
kicked the left pocket and then I think a couple
of boys missed some pretty average tackles and then they
went I think Nick Evans round about sixty meters and
then that next play, Josh Josh Everett just skipped out
and scored, and they pretty much hit the.
Speaker 4 (01:43):
Tone for the next thirty five minutes. Yeah, it was.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
It was a tough watch, but look you congratulations against
to you and the Pansas Teina and your brother Jed.
Right was his last game the helms as the coach
and as he been. But let's I guess was he.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
It's probably had about twenty darts and four red balls
on the sideline. I think Neil Neil got quite a
few f bombs and yeah, so I think it's kicking
the ground a few times.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
I don't.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
I don't think it was this fine story out there,
but I guess that's what we do to them. We've
made them sweet through some very fine and that's a
red hot tip for you.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
Yeah, indeed, Corey, let's just have a look at yourself personally.
In the end the game of rugby league, you're deabled
as a pro with both the Warriors in Doncaster.
Speaker 4 (02:29):
What does that mean to you?
Speaker 1 (02:30):
Is that as a rugby league meant to get an
opportunity to play the game professional level, and I guess
get paid for it.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
I was any more scaffolding, that's right. I wonder say
that I was getting paid well. But yeah, yeah, I
guess it all came out pretty quick. I don't really
either vision now I'll be playing in a row or
getting paid to play rugby league. And then an opportunity
came up and I knuckled down for a year and
trained we but hard and I'll probably usually do and
(02:58):
got the opportunity. I pray didn't take the opportunity as
much as I could have, especially in Auckland, I thought,
But hindsight it's a wonderful thing, and I probably I haven't,
probably could have moved me to hooker. I probably should
have been hookder straight off the bat. That's I think
that's where my path should have line.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
But I didn't. That was what it was. I got luck.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
I've got four games because there's enough to get me
through the year. In regards to the match payment, So
don Caster was totally different. Probably played my best rugby
league in Doncaster and I was I.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Was a quatter player, so I was close to Super League.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
But they didn't want to take a punt on her.
Did two players twenty eight, which was fair enough. But
I probably should have went to a different club and
a bigger Maybe I did one club and stuck it
out for another year. But you know, wife, we had
two young kids and a wife and very easy for
the boys for me being a player, but very hard
on the wife. So she struggled over there and we
(03:56):
decided to come home. But yeah, I was doing way
more over then I was with the Worries, like three games,
three games a week and match payments and I was
doing like a thousand quite a week.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
Was an easy life.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
We should have stuck out one way year, try a
different club and if it didn't work, come home.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
But that's what I mean, as I said a couple
of times.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
And other.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
Stuff I said, I never retreated myself as a professional.
I never thought I was really professional. So I was
just playing the game because I played, and then I
start getting a bit of money for it.
Speaker 4 (04:28):
And I didn't really act in.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
A way, especially off the field, in regards to earning
money and how to maximize, maximize how I earned that money.
Speaker 4 (04:37):
I guess more appropriate word. Oh, all interesting.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
I guess you would might be the first and all
the last player to I guess go through that scenario
and all of a sudden you're getting paid to play
and a gieve what do I do with me days?
Speaker 4 (04:48):
And all that sort of camera.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
Yeah, it's a bit different now. I think they trade
a lot harder.
Speaker 3 (04:51):
And we were quite lucky at the Warriors, and we
had a good group of boys that we hanged out
a lot with and we had no social media and
no smartphone.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
So there's a little bit more Bob.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
Let's get a bit closer to home.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
So a couple of years playing as the pro, come back,
come back, and I guess the Cannary Bulls are another
team that are close to your heart. I had the
odd games for the Canary Balls over the years and
close to my heart.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
I think we won one and to nine No row
words must been to five.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
We might have won the comp People remember all this
one off games. I remember Bargar, I remember the token
games here and there.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
But yeah, it's always been close to my heart.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Balls because we spent so much time when we didn't
play for our club for the majority of the year,
when we had a proper national camp here. So you know,
that's how we create our own team environment and culture.
And I think we've done pretty well and the Balls
considering we were small and we had a lot of
hard and you know, we lost a couple in the
last couple of minutes as well. But I think I
(05:55):
think we have performed a lot of people thought we
would have.
Speaker 4 (05:58):
What are you making the national competition?
Speaker 1 (06:00):
You know, he's it's but said that the Balls saidlier,
are not on that the top level of the competition,
so they're going to have to week their way back
in through the lower toy It's.
Speaker 4 (06:09):
It's just it.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Yes, it's lost. It's way weward, isn't it? National Rugby League,
Nationally here.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
Yeah, definitely, but it's also a cash like that's where
we're out. If we're being honest, we can't compete against
the all content moment because they're all comps. Just it's
just crazy good. I'll watched some of that Fox stuff
this week last week, and.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
I just that're just so much bigger and fast enough
at the moment.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
But again, most of our young kids leave in Australia
and form a young kid twenty one, twenty two, twenty three,
and I don't really have a profession and I'm going
to go play some bush football and in some money,
and you know, I can see why we lose. We
lose all our kids to prove that demographic, that twenty
one to twenty five.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
Year olds, because there's just more over there.
Speaker 4 (06:51):
At the moment.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
But the way they're going I think last year, yeah,
Jude coached and there's some good buy in, but the
sources some ship by and if I was really honest,
from a few and that probably hurt us on the
field as well. And you know, it was pretty embarrassing
a couple of them results, But it wasn't down to
especially the coaching staff. It's probably more fell on the players.
(07:14):
Players heads than the coaching staff.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
Last year. I thought, it always does, mate, it always does. Right,
let's get back to Hornby.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
As I said, we're in the in the clubrooms here
at the Hornby Painters. And I guess for you, Cory,
this is you've probably grown up here and made this
is part of your life, a part of your family's life.
Speaker 4 (07:35):
Has me for many, many years. What does this club
mean to you?
Speaker 2 (07:40):
It means, Yeah, it just means probably the world to
be at the moment.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
Remember being up here and I was young Kred the
old man bring us up here in his little incompyramid
poking machine.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Over there, and we just play up here.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
And as when I was six and seven, I remember
the end days and brought my kids up here, and
so yeah, it's just legacy that maintains. And you know,
sometimes you wish you don't care as much because you
can walk away. But I'm in this position where you know,
I just care too much and I just can't walk
away from it. But yeah, it's been good for me too.
(08:13):
It's not just the one way street. I met my
lifelong friends here. I've made some memories here that old.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Chair us forever and I've been lucky enough to do
some wonderful things in the Hornby Jersey.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
Yep, it's I mean, I guess in terms of clubs
in Kennery, I mean all that, all the clubs have
their own these strengths. But I think the Hornby Club
from from my experience walking around the different clubs, it's
certainly got that real community feel.
Speaker 4 (08:37):
It is the hub, isn't it of Hornby? Really?
Speaker 2 (08:41):
Yeah, I don't like. I've done a quiz night this
year and.
Speaker 4 (08:44):
I packed out.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
We packed it out, and it is.
Speaker 3 (08:47):
It is a wee bit different now, like a lot
of people don't come back to the clubrooms and not
like in the old days. So you know, for a club,
you know, it's hard getting people through the doors.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
It's hard surviving.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
It's hard paying insurance bills, it's hard paying electric bills.
So we've tried to make we have be a bit
more of a think outside square and get more events
and get more people coming through our doors because once
to enjoy it it. It's just trying to get cost
of living in order these days. And no one likes
spending ten bucks on a big blot these days.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Yeah, I don't know why it's still cheap cheap. It
is listen for you, mate. I mean, I'm going to
tell people how old you are, forty four years old?
Speaker 4 (09:23):
Is this it? Are you done? Are the boots hung up?
Speaker 2 (09:25):
Yeah? I think so? Yeah, I think so.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
I'll be pretty close. I think I'm a man who
will always train. I always keep myself in good condition.
But mentally it's more of mental stuff that beats me
down now just getting ready for trainings, going to trainings,
and they've asked me to do the balls, and you know,
I just don't think I can do another two months
of constant training. It's just a training and on the
(09:48):
cold Thursday night, when you when you're eighty four years old,
like where the bones really want to get moving to
it again. But yeah, as a competitive like this was
my last year week and week out football. If someone
needs a hand next year and I'm in a position,
I might throw them on for a game here or there.
But as a consistent premier player, no more done.
Speaker 4 (10:11):
So what's next thing? Coaching?
Speaker 2 (10:14):
I'll put it.
Speaker 3 (10:15):
I guess if I put him, we can try to
keep the squad together again.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
That's where it comes from. Care and too much, But
I don't care.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
I can just disappear and my wife would be happy
and it should be a lot more happy. Actually that's
what that's what she signed up for. But yeah, I
think I'll put my name down and the club decides
on the right fid or we get another coach that's
another great coach that wants to put him, which would
be great and I can help him out. But you
know there's no I wouldn't get to us if they
(10:43):
passed me over for a good coach.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
And you know, I'm just happy to long as will
be a good coach. Yeah, boys, give best plan anyway.
Speaker 1 (10:51):
I haven't touched on it, but you did manage to play.
I think it was one game with your with your son.
It's one premier game.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
Quite a few that first year.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
Jayden has done real good preseason and he's he actually started,
He started that first game and I think he must
have played maybe seven or eight games. But he's just
he's away bit light and big games. We just got
kicked to him. But played with from last year too,
I think. But he didn't pay this year because he
went to Europe Europe for lo Oi and got scammed
(11:20):
out of all his money.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
So to send him in money.
Speaker 3 (11:23):
But he's been in the army too, so he's been
away most of the year. So next year he wants
to have a real hot dig So he really still
wants to play one more game with me, So don't ever,
But as a consistent Premier player, I don't want to.
You know, it's for the next guys. Kain ROSEI missed
out this year because I came back, and yeah, that's
(11:45):
what I don't want to be doing. I don't want
our young kids missing out because you've got some guy
doesn't know how.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
To give up in front of him.
Speaker 4 (11:51):
Maybe, yeah, fair enough.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Look, Cory, it's been an absolute pleasure to sit here
and have it yearn with you.
Speaker 4 (11:57):
I've known you for a long long time. He won't say,
I know you.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
Here this a little bit, but look, MAT's been pleasure
to suspend some time with this southnoon or you're here
the up of the Panthers Den and get to know
you a little bit more and thanks very much and
all the beast cheers.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
It gets away.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
It's surreal, like I'm not a big fan fear of
all the media that's come on the last few weeks,
and I'll go this is a perfect element for me
because It means I don't have to take a photo
because I'm built the space, built for radio.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
It's my perfect platform.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
Yeah, you have me both.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
I've been doing it for thirty years, that's why.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
Yeah, for more from news talks, there'd be listen live
on air or online and keep
Speaker 1 (12:41):

let's get back to Hornby.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
As I said, we're in the in the clubrooms here
at the Hornby Painters. And I guess for you, Cory,
this is you've probably grown up here and made this
is part of your life, a part of your family's life.
Speaker 4 (07:35):
Has me for many, many years. What does this club
mean to you?
Speaker 2 (07:40):
It means, Yeah, it just means probably the world to
be at the moment.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
Remember being up here and I was young Kred the
old man bring us up here in his little incompyramid
poking machine.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
Over there, and we just play up here.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
And as when I was six and seven, I remember
the end days and brought my kids up here, and
so yeah, it's just legacy that maintains. And you know,
sometimes you wish you don't care as much because you
can walk away. But I'm in this position where you know,
I just care too much and I just can't walk
away from it. But yeah, it's been good for me too.
(08:13):
It's not just the one way street. I met my
lifelong friends here. I've made some memories here that old.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Chair us forever and I've been lucky enough to do
some wonderful things in the Hornby Jersey.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
Yep, it's I mean, I guess in terms of clubs
in Kennery, I mean all that, all the clubs have
their own these strengths. But I think the Hornby Club
from from my experience walking around the different clubs, it's
certainly got that real community feel.
Speaker 4 (08:37):
It is the hub, isn't it of Hornby? Really?
Speaker 2 (08:41):
Yeah, I don't like. I've done a quiz night this
year and.
Speaker 4 (08:44):
I packed out.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
We packed it out, and it is.
Speaker 3 (08:47):
It is a wee bit different now, like a lot
of people don't come back to the clubrooms and not
like in the old days. So you know, for a club,
you know, it's hard getting people through the doors.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
It's hard surviving.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
It's hard paying insurance bills, it's hard paying electric bills.
So we've tried to make we have be a bit
more of a think outside square and get more events
and get more people coming through our doors because once
to enjoy it it. It's just trying to get cost
of living in order these days. And no one likes
spending ten bucks on a big blot these days.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Yeah, I don't know why it's still cheap cheap. It
is listen for you, mate. I mean, I'm going to
tell people how old you are, forty four years old?
Speaker 4 (09:23):
Is this it? Are you done? Are the boots hung up?
Speaker 2 (09:25):
Yeah? I think so? Yeah, I think so.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
I'll be pretty close. I think I'm a man who
will always train. I always keep myself in good condition.
But mentally it's more of mental stuff that beats me
down now just getting ready for trainings, going to trainings,
and they've asked me to do the balls, and you know,
I just don't think I can do another two months
of constant training. It's just a training and on the
(09:48):
cold Thursday night, when you when you're eighty four years old,
like where the bones really want to get moving to
it again. But yeah, as a competitive like this was
my last year week and week out football. If someone
needs a hand next year and I'm in a position,
I might throw them on for a game here or there.
But as a consistent premier player, no more done.
Speaker 4 (10:11):
So what's next thing? Coaching?
Speaker 2 (10:14):
I'll put it.
Speaker 3 (10:15):
I guess if I put him, we can try to
keep the squad together again.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
That's where it comes from. Care and too much, But
I don't care.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
I can just disappear and my wife would be happy
and it should be a lot more happy. Actually that's
what that's what she signed up for. But yeah, I
think I'll put my name down and the club decides
on the right fid or we get another coach that's
another great coach that wants to put him, which would
be great and I can help him out. But you
know there's no I wouldn't get to us if they
(10:43):
passed me over for a good coach.
Speaker 2 (10:44):
And you know, I'm just happy to long as will
be a good coach. Yeah, boys, give best plan anyway.
Speaker 1 (10:51):
I haven't touched on it, but you did manage to play.
I think it was one game with your with your son.
It's one premier game.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
Quite a few that first year.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
Jayden has done real good preseason and he's he actually started,
He started that first game and I think he must
have played maybe seven or eight games. But he's just
he's away bit light and big games. We just got
kicked to him. But played with from last year too,
I think. But he didn't pay this year because he
went to Europe Europe for lo Oi and got scammed
(11:20):
out of all his money.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
So to send him in money.
Speaker 3 (11:23):
But he's been in the army too, so he's been
away most of the year. So next year he wants
to have a real hot dig So he really still
wants to play one more game with me, So don't ever,
But as a consistent Premier player, I don't want to.
You know, it's for the next guys. Kain ROSEI missed
out this year because I came back, and yeah, that's
(11:45):
what I don't want to be doing. I don't want
our young kids missing out because you've got some guy
doesn't know how.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
To give up in front of him.
Speaker 4 (11:51):
Maybe, yeah, fair enough.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Look, Cory, it's been an absolute pleasure to sit here
and have it yearn with you.
Speaker 4 (11:57):
I've known you for a long long time. He won't say,
I know you.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
Here this a little bit, but look, MAT's been pleasure
to suspend some time with this southnoon or you're here
the up of the Panthers Den and get to know
you a little bit more and thanks very much and
all the beast cheers.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
It gets away.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
It's surreal, like I'm not a big fan fear of
all the media that's come on the last few weeks,
and I'll go this is a perfect element for me
because It means I don't have to take a photo
because I'm built the space, built for radio.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
It's my perfect platform.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
Yeah, you have me both.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
I've been doing it for thirty years, that's why.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
Yeah, for more from news talks, there'd be listen live
