Speaker 1 (00:00):
Now Correots is new on the team this year afresh
from the Brisbane Broncos. So you're still allowed to go
straight to the club and use the gym for trade stuff.
I think you did yesterday. My key still works. That's good,
it just doesn't doesn't. This is my old place. But yeah,

(00:22):
I went there to, you know, do the right thing
and go train and try and keep fitting rocked up.
And I'm like Jesus, the whole teams. Yeah, the car
park was fully as they normally players the day off,
sort of rest day, easy day. We're talking about red Hill. Yeah.
And then so I just parked in Springer's car, like

(00:45):
where his workship is and all that sort of stuff.
Right Spring. He's been there forever. He's been a part
of the clubs and started so so just one of
the one of the ad guys just does all the
like the strapping, gets all the waters, He looks after
the ground, un does a lot. He's done for so long.
He's a great, great human Springer. So I just parked

(01:06):
there and he didn't rock up, So I was happy
with that because otherwise would have hurt him. But yeah,
and then I walk in, I'm like, I sweet I'll
do a quick gym sash walking in the gym, just
cameras and I'm like, no, they're doing their primo day,
so bugger. Oh well I'm not going to try now
because everyone's going to chat to you that I just can't,

(01:26):
like you just can't make noise because they're doing videos
and yeah, so I went, well, I'll do some plarateis.
So got on the machine and the boys will start finishing.
I'm like, oh, I have a chat, and now how
are you going? Yep? Good? See the boys? Yea, they
just like he just brushed me, Like I just thought
it a bit more of a chat. What about? Like
what about like you best made? The reno would have

(01:47):
come over and rushed me the quickest. I said, chat yep,
got to go. What are you going over there to
get some clubs? That's a tough gig. Is off getting golf.
Don't worry. I just come here to see. Isn't it
all good? Worry about it? But you were so something
before just off their before the show that they normally
on a day like yesterday, they would all go and
play golf after it was a lot of things. So yeah,

(02:08):
well yeah, in the years of boys of they're so
used to just being able to go play golf, and
you know, thinking that they can just do that every
not there every day, but to two times a week
at least. You know, I have a training session yesterday,
I'm like what he is all doing? They're like, God,
I'm to bed and they're just so tired from from

(02:29):
the training preseason. And I said, good, Actually, I'm my good.
You should be I said, you should be tired. I said,
the pre season is not enjoyable, Like you're meant to
not enjoy it. It's meant to be hard, it's meant
to be it's meant to push your boundaries. I've quit
twice when I was eight, and I'm done because it's
so hard, so hard, and I've never seen them also beaten,

(02:50):
but they're so fit. They all look ridiculously with the
new coach like this isn't Michael. I believe then now
starting to realize, yeah, this is a full time. Yeah,
because that's a good point. If you can, if you
can do a proper like elite athlete workout and then
go and play golf, you probably haven't gone try hard

(03:12):
enough exactly. And you know they're long days too, that
they're like, sometimes they don't let him for like five o'clock. Wow,
they get there at six and leave at five. What
kind of stuff do they do on that big days?
It's just you know, the gym, the wrestling, and then
field sessions. But you've gotta have your breaks in between
each time, so you're getting the best out of yourselves
for each session. So and they split up so forwards back,

(03:33):
so you've got like on big days, there's like eight
eight different sessions for obviously you know, for the whole team.
So it sounds good just and everything that sounds good
for twenty twenty five. I like it. You've always looks fit,
really fit. You know what I'm thinking. I'm like, well,
how would you feed those men? That's exactly and that's
do they eat. That's exactly what you gotta eat. Well,

(03:56):
you gotta drink water, you gotta They say someone that
that club has all the resources. It's got everything. I
couldn't explain anymore. It has everything. I'm assuming it's not
the nuggets. It's got the kitchens you'll ever see likes.
It's got food for everyone every day is always and
is food match to sessions, Like if you're going to

(04:18):
have a massive there's a nutritioness that organize all food
and plans it for the like they've got everything. Wow, Okay,

to see something like, you're so happy you retire
