Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:12):
I heard podcasts, hear more kiss podcasts, playlists, and listen
live on the Freeheart app Robin and Kidd Now with
Correos the podcast.

Speaker 2 (00:26):
Another video that's been doing the rounds over the last
couple of days is of the Titans coach Des Hasler.
It's a video of him in the change rooms going
off at the players, particularly the ones that have gone
to take a shower when he wants to address the team.
So you see him yelling at the players to get
back into the room so that he can give him
a spray. And they lost by a point to the

(00:47):
Tigers on the weekend, so it was it was a
very tight.

Speaker 1 (00:50):
Game and they are at the bottom of the ladder.

Speaker 2 (00:52):
Absolute bottom.

Speaker 3 (00:54):
And I think it was I might have seen chat
about I think it was alfter the press commerce too maybe,
and I'm tipping in the press commerce he would have
been slammed about their performances. You know, his job under
scrutiny and all this and that, and yeah, to be honest,
I believe he's the right man for the for them.

(01:17):
I truly believe that. I really do. If the Titans
are going in the next five years and need they
need to stick with the coach for five years. You
have to You've got to. You can't expect to change
in twelve months, in twenty four months. It's it just
doesn't work.

Speaker 2 (01:31):
It's really is it about the culture wide? Does it
take so long?

Speaker 3 (01:34):
Because it's it's it's all so different. It takes it
takes a bit of time for them to for the
coach to get their right roster and the players to
want to buy into what you know to where he's going.
And like, everyone's different, Every coach is different. Some are
harsh of some a Lena like Lean. It's everything's so different,

(01:55):
and I think the Titans have been where they have
been for so long. It's it's not an easy fix.
It really isn't.

Speaker 2 (02:01):
And everyone every new coach that comes in has to
coach the old team between the previous coach.

Speaker 1 (02:07):
Has won premierships with men.

Speaker 3 (02:09):
Five a game. Yeah, he's following a game coach.

Speaker 1 (02:12):
Like, okay, so you like Des Hasler, you think what
Des Hasler did was right? Now Phil Gould has weighed
in and said this a.

Speaker 4 (02:20):
Want bit an advocate that the sanctity in privacy of
the dressing room should be for the players and coaches
or not for television cameras. I think cameras should be
being from the dressing rooms, or at least be handheld cameras.
So I don't know the camera's there. I don't think
this does there's the game or anyone else any good?

Speaker 3 (02:36):
Yeah, I agree, Yeah, well I can agree on that
because of something that happened a long long time ago.
To me, what happened, I was talking to Wayne Bennett
and it was when those cameras just they like that
year was the first year they'd ever used them.

Speaker 2 (02:50):
So did you even know that they were there?

Speaker 3 (02:52):
Or yeah? I mean I don't look at them.

Speaker 2 (02:54):
You forgot.

Speaker 3 (02:55):
And I was talking away and I reorganized my little
fella in front Wayne. Yeah, while I'm talking like he's
but he's looking at me. I've got my pants on.
It's just but the camera's sitting right there.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
So what type of what type of reshuffle? A were
talking abouts?

Speaker 1 (03:12):
Right right out?

Speaker 3 (03:14):
And then I've moved him around because it wasn't comfy,
and the camera got everything and and is that a prop? No,
I didn't see any of it, because the club done
a pretty good job that area get rid of it.

Speaker 2 (03:29):
Yeah, but why would you do that in front of Wayne,
because you know.

Speaker 3 (03:33):
Un comsable it is when you're entights. Seriously, but yeah,
there's so many instance over the years where those cameras
have been a problem, and I agree with Phil. I
think they should be gone from the changing rooms. The
dressing rooms and the walking cameras are the only ones
that are allowed because you know they're there and it's
actually helping.

Speaker 2 (03:51):
It's actually sexist too, because there's no way they're playing
those cameras when the girls are playing. There's no way
that they are allowing those cameras with a bunch of
female players that are in various stages of undress. But
they do it for the boys because they they don't care. Yeah,
it's not fair.

Speaker 1 (04:07):
Well, I mean I guess the boys haven't. I don't
know the politics on that. I mean, yeah, sure if
you want a quality on it, do you want the
cameras in the girls change room? And then surely that's
up to the NRL to just go get out, get out.

Speaker 4 (04:22):
Like it's it is.

Speaker 3 (04:25):
It feels an advocate for this for Young I remember
him saying this plenty of times, and I think it's
it needs to change because it's it's getting ridiculous, like
the things that are starting to you know, the things
that they're starting to catch, and they shouldn't they shouldn't
have access to that.

Speaker 2 (04:42):
Yeah, well they had to zoom right in to catch
anything with yours, I'm told, but they.

Speaker 3 (04:46):
She was zoomed out wide.

Speaker 1 (04:48):
Of course. This is where the conversation for it. Actually,
I thought, when I heard them, we saw all how
long it would take, and here we are.

Speaker 2 (05:03):
I wouldn't use the word swing. It was more of
a
