Speaker 1 (00:01):
Cooper strange around of football, lots of upsets, a lot
of the sides are on long winning runs on the
end of a loss. Mate the weather that's the great
equalizer and it makes you go to your plan and
do a little bit.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
I'm not totally surprised because the competition falls into a
lull post origin before finals. You know, there's some teams
that might be trained a little bit harder than usual.
There might be some teams that are really trying to
fall into the eight and need to focus. But if
if you were slightly off in this competition intensity commitment.
You're talking about the Raiders versus the Dragons, Like if
(00:37):
you're just slightly off, the other team will get you.
So I'm not surprised. But those good teams that had
some scares on the weekend, Like, if you're a fan
of those teams, don't worry. Yeah, that is like it's
like riding a bike. They'll get back on the bike
at some stage. But it makes a friend detained.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
Right, Well, let's talk about the Raiders there for a second, Coops,
because I think we said in previous weeks there were
just a couple of little things about the Raiders which
I think oftentimes is byproduct of long winning run. When
you finally when you go on these long winning runs,
when the loss finally comes, you sort of look back
and gate, well, you can actually see where your football
started to become a little bit frayed. And I just
(01:15):
thought with the Raiders, they've been letting the opposition just
play football too much.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Yep, as you said, a couple of halves here half
there three weeks building in that was coming and you
don't Ricky stew would never admit this, but fourteen errors
against the Dragons, and the one thing that showed me
that they went dialed in is that Cole Funning and
out kicked Jamal Fogey. There was a huge win and
(01:42):
Jamal Fogy pregame should have dominated in that part of
the contest. And we actually interviewed Ricky prior to the game,
and Ricky is normally stoic, he's confident and tells you
how these team are going to win. He was nervous,
like you could see that he was thinking internally like, Okay,
I don't know if we're right up for this. We're
(02:02):
probably not where we should be, and it just came
out in that performance.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
That's funny because I actually felt the same about Ricky.
I didn't see the pre game this week, but the
week before when they played Newcastle, I thought Ricky looked nervous.
Then I thought it looked different to any other point
through the year. He could obviously see like I think,
I'm not going to say it's the loss they needed,
but I think it's a loss of do them a
(02:27):
lot of good.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
I would suspect the Dogs the Raiders. That's a bit
of a kickstarter to say, hey, what we did that
week is not what we do from here on out,
and they I wouldn't be too worried if I was
a support of those two teams.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
I tell you what, well, Dounder the Tigers of all
the criticism and they've won three of their last five,
but they were just sew up for it emotionally. Before
we talk about the Dogs on that. You know the
Adam Dewey situation. Dewey played in the Hars, but he
wore the thirteen and his little stints at thirteen in
the previous few weeks. Oh God has made a big
(03:00):
difference to his football. It simplified his football, It's found
what he's best at. So even yesterday during periods of
the game, although he's playing in the halves, for me,
he was playing like a back rower a little bit.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
I think Feinu's got some growing to do. He's got
to develop his game like he can have flashes of bruins.
But to say that he's going to dominate the seven
jersey for the Tigers for the next eighty months, He's
got to have a lot of work to do on
both sides of the ball. But do we been an
experienced player. He's confident doing it doesn't matter where he plays.
He looks for a way to have an involvement and
(03:33):
he's a bigger body. And I really liked that he
had a run first mentality and opened up a lot
of other avenues of his ball player. He was tremendous,
like he was outstanding. Couple of try involvements, scored one
himself and then in the second half. The thing that
said to me that he should be the halfback going
forward for a period of time is four tackle kicks
(03:53):
in what conditions up twenty to four. That's a half
back mindset.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Kick the ball early, forced the opposition to do the
wrong thing. And Benji's got some challenges, but that almost
assures them that they're not going to get the wooden
spoon again. So that's a big victory. Yeah, that's right.
And you think about the Tigers and their wins like
they're an emotional team, like when they play it like art,
no one can really understand why they win, but they win.
And when they come against Lachland Galvin, all of a
(04:19):
sudden those issues defensively or disconnection in attack, it comes through.
So Benji's got a big job to get that team
up emotionally to cover some of the cracks they have
intensively an attack.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Emotion that is, the ability to get yourself up emotionally
for a game is a skill to be able to
do that. And you said before, when they turn up
at Leihart and they walk out and warm up and
it's a big crowd, they get up emotionally and you
just got to find a way to do that. You know,
when you're playing an away game somewhere and it's raining
and there's seven thousand people in the stands, still find
(04:53):
a way to get yourself up.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
And credit to them. The Spine were good. Do we
ran the football. He was the best player in the field.
Jerome Luwa had some nice which as happy Corus Hour
that Tri Syst and Duri Buller scored a try. Like
their Spine players were very very good.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
The Bulldogs players style different everybody else and it's a
lot of short shart passing, a lot of passing in
the line, and yesterday that was problematic in the web.
They've struggled this year in the wet weather football. There's
no doubt going into the big game.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
They've done a couple of times.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
They going into these big games, Cameron is going to
have to have a look at adjusting their style that
all of a sudden you get their Grand Final day
and work it up in the morning's pissing down raining.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
So how would you adjust the style.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
I think they've gotta be less passing in the line.
I think just simplify the football a little bit. The
week before they simplified and rewarded for it. I'm not
going to say that their football this week they tried
to play more complex, but it was more complex because
more complex, that's right, you know, And it gives an up.
When the Tigers were up emotionally and because of the conditions,
(05:55):
I know, it's harder to move the ball across and
more dangerous to pass short in the line. They really
and I think the Bulldocks just need to be more patient.
I liked early in the game they're do an angle
changes and just testing them out. But they got himpatient.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
When you look at the Tigers tries in that first half,
do he around the ball, brokeer, tackle, corros our kick
you run from yardage and then the loose ball. So
they didn't really create try scoring opportunities through brilliant play.
The Dogs for me, when you're playing wet weather, I
think defensively they have the game style to create opportunities.
(06:31):
In that second half, kurk Man knocked the ball out
a couple of times and they got given the field
position and to score points. I think they went when
Stephen CROs actually like Stephen Grant playing fullback at the
red zone, like he's a big body set there, try
for pressing, beautiful work. So they've got a bit of
work to do with kind of Tracy not there. But
when they going left hand side, I think they went
to sideways to trying to score on the outside. Mate Burton,
(06:55):
run the ball back inside, drop kick out, cherry back inside.
Because the Tigers middle forwards don't have the tank to
stay with it for eighty minutes. They just went away
from what they should have done and tried to finesse it.
And the wet weather allowed the Tigers defense to shut down,
particularly on that left hand side.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
So I think in wet weather in Plant, when you're
playing bogs like it was yesterday, I think a good
step is better than a good pass and changes more
of that stuff. The two players who gave the Tigers
some problems when they decided to run and use their
footwork was Burton. A few times they curt me in
a couple of times just went showed the ball took
them on. With these footworkers, we went half through.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Because what you need to do is generate quick play
the ball, so the first person might run it for
five meters, quick play the next one's twelve, next one's fifteen,
and all of a sudden that Tiger's defense is retreating.
Matt Burton kicked out running the ball twelve meters off
the line. You're going to screw a try.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
Any yesterday's loss to affect your opinion as far as.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
It not a single thing. Eventually, I think the Dogs
defensively have an opportunity through their line speed and their
fitness to really rattle all the good teams. And as
I said off the top, there's a window here that
might go on for another week or two that you
don't want to drop three games. But like you don't
create bad habits now. But I wouldn't be too worried
(08:13):
if I'm a Raiders fan or a Dogs fan. I
think they've got enough confidence from what they've done. All
they really need to do is sharp and swords slightly.
But in attack wise for the Dogs, I would be
turning the ball back in underneath. And it's death by
a thousand cards. It's not trying to score them with
one player.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
Penrith within a whisker of being the biggest upset over
the course of the weekend. Firstly, about the trainer going
in front of the Jaden Campbell fifty thousand dollars fine
five game band, but I feel it's a breach of
breach of code of contact.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
So there's no rule as such.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
But it's more etiquette, unsportsmanlike.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
And I believe i've and clear whither that trainer did
it by accident.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
When you see the he's actually clearly embarrassed.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
They're a good club that do all the right things
off the field, so I respect that, but I feel
like the sanctions more about like what they've done with.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
The water on the border, and they've reacted to.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
That and did it cost them the game? No one's
got a crystal ball. But I will say this, he
kicks that goal. We're not talking about Nathan clearing the
two pointer, like his touches well when the game was
on the line.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
Incredible, incredible. Let's have let's look, we did this. We
did it last week with Dylan Edward, so let's have
the last five minutes from Nathan. And one of the
things here, Coops, is this is I mean, this is
the set of six of leads, so it's a shonky
ball there. You don't see him throw many of them
stage yep, down by two straight away, let him run.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
That's just programmed to elitness that like he just knew
exactly what he's going to do.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
And Coops kicking a field goal off a pass that
long world under Mitch Kenny too. But you're kicking the
field goal from forty out on your whel had to
take half.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
A step back to make sure he's behind the forty
and then had to hit it with enough venom to
put it over that there is.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
And you know we're watching him, he keeps like, you know,
it's the.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
Best pay about this is touch the ball, lot control
the direction of the set this one bit of a lottery.
Like he's probably not going to kick that one, but
tell you what, he had enough juice on it. But
what he's doing here is he's controlling everything because he's
a decision maker. I don't want other people to touch
the ball and send me off to a field position
and I don't have control of So he gets in
here inside TARLANGI here just trying to create yardage so
(10:37):
he can get this shot away. That's it.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
You just seen him handle back to back to back,
just taking total control of the game. He comes up
here with the field goal here, I thought that's an opportunity.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
This is the kickover a crossfield. So he's put in
a bad position here, so he kicks it across. But
he's manipulating the game. He's just taking it to where
he wants to do it, and he's trying to get
it In fact here I think he should have kicked
this one.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
Yeah, I think he.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Should have when he got the ball here, I got
game over. He's not just topped it, so he turned
it left and he's topped it with his right foot.
This one here, yep, classic, Yep.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
Okay, we're going to see we're going to see the
top end shot in a second. You're going to point
out by the way blas to Lungey just coming on
leaps and bounds.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
And they are too good at doing this for it
to be a fluke like this. But here, this is
the last play, Ny think clear on the right hand
side to play. The ball normally goes the first receiver,
but he's gone two passes wide outside to Lungey. Why
because there's a back rower defending at right center for
the Titans. He's just come on the field. And what
he does. He comes over here two passes wide, which
(11:41):
is normally he's inside tar Lungey and he sets up
this play by playing nice as square because he knows
he's got Casey McLean with speed and footwork one on
one with a back rower.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
And what happens, Yep, it gets him See that half
little pause.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
I wrapped up Mitch Moses last week for his foot
iq That yeah, that is that's out of this world.
That is smart.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
It is to put himself to understand. To go right,
someone's going to have to throw the absolute pass you.
So I'm not going to let the jungblow do it.
I'm going to push myself into that position, bring.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
Me the ball and maybe dar Lungi sets him up
and maybe he doesn't because every centimeter accounts in that
space for claim to do that thing. And when the
game is on the line, he just said, give me
the ball and that's what you want to play.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
It keeps just on that too. I mean the first
half versus the second half, twenty four nil down and
then they came back there leading twenty six to twenty
four the Titans, and there's no doubt there's a drop
off of intensity with Penrith and also you know, credit
to the Titans elevating themselves and started to get the
smell of a win. But the other thing too, is
now Aeo in the second half, came on in the
(12:48):
second half and then left early with that with that shoulder.
When I saw it, I thought it was bad, I'd say,
did I he.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
Played on for a bit. I'm no doctor, but when
he extended like that, I just feel like checking out
doctor film made with you on the couch. But when
he extended like that, it didn't look good. So yeah,
watch that.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
Based on whom the Dolphins, they were down to twelve men,
they get a penalty opportunity to go for a goal.
They said, now we're going to go for it. What
would have you done, Cooper.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
Condition I would have kicked the goal, But then I
look at the situation of the context. Issaco, the main
kicker who would kick it with his left foot from
that distance groin injury. And I saw Cartel. I have
a conversation with him, and when they scored the try,
Sarka didn't take the goal. Carta did. So I think
Cartel has gone, you know what, he can't do it,
(13:43):
And he probably said to himself, actually, I don't think
I can kick this. So to be down to twelve
players having to score a try with a minute on
the clock, I'm like, what are you thinking?
Speaker 1 (13:53):
Well, firstly shows number one lot of belief and number
two the ability to operate under pressure, extreme extreme pressure
and get it done.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
I think they also got lucky a little bit. Yeah,
down to twelve, the probability of them scoring like I
like that they just threw the ball around because that's
your best opportunity. But there was a moment where we
spoke about him a little bit on this show Your
Man Healsima. He goes down and like he laid down
on the ground, Like here he is here, the game's
on the line, Dolphins down to twelve players. He puts
(14:21):
in a really good effort. He to chase play across
the field and he's down there on the ground.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
To get up.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
Got to get up. Unless you've got a broken leg,
You've got to get up. And just a body in
the line might have stopped this. Like there's just a
learning for that young kid that he might have got
the boot. I'm not sure what happened, but he's just
got to get in the line. At the Warriors, then
look what.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
It's just the amount of important injuries they've got. You
lose your half back, you know, and it's such a shame.
But the injuries at the moment are putting the brakes
on this season.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
Very very tough.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Big blow to the Dolphins. Herby farm Worth to six weeks.
As with hamstring injuries, when you're a player like Herbie
who's express speed can be confect your confidence a little bit.
That's seventeen minutes. In the seventeen minutes, it was so good.
I think it was five tackle bus ran for one
hundred and thirty meters and score to try. Just exceptional
(15:17):
footballer and just getting better all the time. And Ker
he just works the amount of extras he does. No
player in the competition works harder than this bloke.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
He's physically gifted, that's for sure. He was causing all
sorts of issues as we see here for the highlights
through the Warrior's right edge, and they've done done a
tremendous job. The Dolphins like to cover some of those
forward injuries at different stages, even here when Herbie goes down,
just just keep fighting to get through and that get
that victory. But they can't lose gifted athletes like that.
(15:50):
Well that's their point of difference that attack. Like maybe
Aviarello is going to move to left center. I'm not
sure who's going to come in, but all of a
sudden there's a couple of tackle bus So you're not
going to get each game, and once you start coming
up against better teams than the finals. For them, I
think Herbie probably needs to come back for the chance.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
I mean, there's a club that's had a hell lot
of injuries and they just keep, they keep well.
Speaker 2 (16:11):
They play the Roosters this week and it's almost a
four point.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
That's a four pointer. There's a few of these starting
to come up.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
Mainly Roosters and the Dolphins. They play each other in
quick succession, and we assume the Sharks get seventh because
of their run. There's three teams fine for eight spot
and they're all playing each other and mainly might have
just cost themselves a chance by losing to the Roosters.
I think mainly play the Dolphins again at some stay soon.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
So we said that last week. Just man, there's just
too much going on in that club. A Broncos Broncos
big win over South injury ravaged South Sydney. This was
a very Broncos game, very Broncos performance. And what I'm
mean by that is it's just how they like it.
(16:59):
There's a bit of distance on the scoreboard between them
and their opponents, which allows them just to relax and
play football and enjoy their football. The big challenge for
the Broncos is to put themselves in a really tight
game with the game on the line and continue to
play that way and accept the result at the end
of it, because that's their football. That's how they should
(17:20):
play coop and not to harp back to that Grand
Final again, but sometimes I was watching that and I've
watched him recently in those tight games and how they freeze.
It's almost like there's still that little bit of a
hangover from that Grand Final, just that little bit there.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
I think the broncos A rap I actually didn't mind
the way they went about it. Go back and watch
the first five or ten minutes. There's opportunity for Rees
Walsh to pull the gun out of the holes through
and go for the throw or the pass, and the
thing that he was doing last week. He actually put
it back. He was quite conservative. They scored three tries
or something in the first half by not really doing
(17:54):
a lot. They just played long game mentality. Come out
in the second half and all of a sudden they
opened up. Ye. So I actually liked the way they
went about it now against the South City who were
decimated with players. But I think you just play what's
in front of you exactly. They did exactly what they
should have done. The test will be can they do
(18:14):
it for longer than the opposition with their full full health.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
And they look so much better team when they open
the field up where they don't play sort of tight
half field football. Well that's okay when you're trying to
work to a point and open the field up, but
just with you know, with Rhys Walsh and Ezra, when
they open the field up, my god, it just creates
space for them. Just half holes here there.
Speaker 2 (18:36):
I will say this. Wayne Bennett was surprisingly upbeat posts
press conference. He just had sixty foot on him by
the Broncos, and he was joking and playing around, and
I thought this was a bit strange, But then I
look at who they're playing this week. They're playing the Titans,
so this is potentially the Wooden Spoon game as levers
(18:56):
Wayne Bennett. Wayne Bennett's just had sixty foot on him
and he telling his team through that interview that everything's
all right and if you look at the way they play,
I'm going to give Lachlan Hubner a huge rap. There
were some effort areas in that game that I thought
this kid's got a bright future. Ashton Ward chased down Ricky.
I think it was there was an effort error. Tell
(19:16):
Us Duncan had some nice touches like he looked powerful,
he scored the try and so what Wayne's doing is
he knows that the Titans have more talent. His team
is decimated with injury, but these young kids and their energy,
if they win, is the reason why they win. So
don't look at their better players, look at their youth
for energy and excitement to out enthoose the Titans and
(19:38):
potentially whoever loses this game out of Dares and Wayne,
I think they're going to get the spoon.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
Yeah, I just can't see. I just see with Wayne's coaching,
the ability to just get his players to get things
done when they need it, no matter how unlikely it is.
I just don't see him getting a spoon. I just
think he'll pull something out.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
Well against the s the other week, like it was
just desperation and their goal and they just kept turning up,
turn up and get it done. Whereas the Titans have
a bit of firepower four and Brimson Campbell, some of
their centers can turn on when they want to. So
there's going to be an interesting game. Can the South
Sydney strangle the Titans, or does the Titans get off
(20:19):
the leash.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
For those young South Sydney blokes. How good is it?
How fortunate are they have Wayne as the coach in
this situation, like you get a rookie cage right with
what's going on now, he's going to pieces and he's
putting all the pressure on the young players. I said
to we had Keyon, Kalum, Tonguey and Talers dunkel on
last night. By the way, jeez mate, what terrific young blokes.
(20:42):
But I said to him, I said, how's Wayne And
they said mate, he yep up. Boot walked in, explained
to him and said, you want to hear the good
news when I have to watch that bullshit every So
he's obviously he turn up to train today. He's come boys,
put your boots on, let's get out.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
I think next week a bit like those are the
times when he got them out of the shower. I
got that victory for them in New zeal On the
week later. Like Wayne, if they win on the weekend,
it's that press conference that gets in the win because
he just changed the narrative on his team and energy
enthusiasm is a reason if they win, I'll get a
job done, kerb.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
I'm going to ask you something here. This is a
really interesting one about yours. You know, doctor Dr.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
Krump, client patient privilege.
Speaker 3 (21:24):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah mate, Camera Munster, Jonah
Pezit Melbourne Storm, this this puzzle Jerome years.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Of course, he signs on a four year deal. So
what that does is Jonah Pesitt has your ability. Now
he can he can walk, he can go to another
club Camraon. Monster still got a couple of years to
run on his contract. However, there's talk that they might
ask for an early release to go to Melbourne, to
leave Melbourne and go to Perth. Apologies work all that out.
(21:55):
So it's a puzzle to be solved. If Monster leaves
for Perth, owner stays. I certainly. If Monster stays in
Melbourne and doesn't get an early releases, no doubt. I
think Jonah's gonna have to get who will go somewhere else? Well,
let me ask you the firstly is if Monster stays
or doesn't get the early release, is it time for
Jonah to move on.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Without Crystal Ball? But Months is not going anywhere before.
That's just my opinion. If I'm Jonah Peasant, look work hard,
improve your game, stay quiet and you'll determine your own future. Yeah, yeah,
that's that's my message because what is now available might
(22:37):
change because there's some coaches that may not be at
the club or whatever. But ultimately he's got a period
of time with Jerome Hughes out to work hard in
the Aros. It needs to improve. Just stays super diligent,
stay quiet and just determine your own future by your performance,
is not by opportunity or movement. If that made sense,
yeah it does.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
Yeah, it would be interesting though if he does, Like,
where's the best fit? Because most clubs need a half
back or more depth in their halves. And so a
couple of years ago Newcastle made a really good offer
for you, and that looks like the perfect fit. I
mean he's an avocastro in Newcastle boy, he's a Newcastle
boy to go back. It was a junior at the
Night's perfect fit. However, him staying at Melbourne, they've gone
(23:18):
a different direction. They've got the Dylan Brown situation now
and that plan, so they might not be interested. Who
knows they might be, but you've got the Cowboys possibility.
There's numerous clubs which one if like for me, if
I'm looking around. I look at from Jonah, what's what
club it's a good fit for me? I'm sort of
(23:39):
thinking Cowboys. I think I think Cowboys would be a
really good fit. Your partnering didn't and there's a lot
of talent on that football side point. But I mean
the other thing you spoke about for the show is right,
we're talking clubs here where coaches are in significant pressure and.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
Things will change. Very provocative to say a team now,
I would double down and say, Johan, you've got six
weeks to show basically rugby, well what you've got, deliver
on that, and then you'll determine where you want to
go to after that. So a lot of changes between
now and then. The coach is a big thing, but
ultimately he'll determine where he wants to go through his performances.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
The HIA situation over the course over the weekend, Stephen
Crichton won, You've had to say on that, and I
think people agree with you.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Yeah, I think the game needs to look at it.
So situation on the weekend as Taylor May gets Category
one can't come back, Stephen Crichton on reports stays on
the field right, So the game needs to fix that
because you can't just have this keep happening at different stages.
So I don't know what the domino effect is, but
there's an idea that you could name eighteen nineteen and
(24:48):
twenty players. One's an outside back, ones are half, and
one's are forward. Right, Let's say, for example, Taylor May
goes off, he comes off, can't get back onto the game,
the tie night there outside back, but Crichton has to
go off at the same time because he's on report.
So then the dogs get there outside back on. And
(25:10):
if Taylor May cannot come back, Stephen Crichton cannot come back.
And if therefore, you can't move a forward for a
half or a half for a outside back. You need
to tell who the player is, what position they are,
and once that player then is no longer involved, then
the dominoff calls off. Like it because the example was Lindsay,
(25:31):
Collins and Nelson first kickoff in that prelim final thing.
It was, for example, both Lindsay goes off, Nelson goes off,
Lindsay's wiped out, his cat won. Therefore Nelson's done. If
the teams don't lose, because that extra forward gets nominated
to go on and play.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Yeah, the Crichton won on the weekend was hugely unfair
when Tyler left the field. You're going well in a
tight game.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
What hapens if Crichton goes on and takes on an
interchange back row who's defending in Taylor May's position. My
flick pass and scores are trying to win it like
you need to. It cannot be handcuffed by the opposition.
Foul play as simple as that.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
I agree. Cool, nice one made thanks to agree on
sum h
Cooper strange around of football, lots of upsets, a lot
of the sides are on long winning runs on the
end of a loss. Mate the weather that's the great
equalizer and it makes you go to your plan and
do a little bit.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
I'm not totally surprised because the competition falls into a
lull post origin before finals. You know, there's some teams
that might be trained a little bit harder than usual.
There might be some teams that are really trying to
fall into the eight and need to focus. But if
if you were slightly off in this competition intensity commitment.
You're talking about the Raiders versus the Dragons, Like if
(00:37):
you're just slightly off, the other team will get you.
So I'm not surprised. But those good teams that had
some scares on the weekend, Like, if you're a fan
of those teams, don't worry. Yeah, that is like it's
like riding a bike. They'll get back on the bike
at some stage. But it makes a friend detained.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
Right, Well, let's talk about the Raiders there for a second, Coops,
because I think we said in previous weeks there were
just a couple of little things about the Raiders which
I think oftentimes is byproduct of long winning run. When
you finally when you go on these long winning runs,
when the loss finally comes, you sort of look back
and gate, well, you can actually see where your football
started to become a little bit frayed. And I just
(01:15):
thought with the Raiders, they've been letting the opposition just
play football too much.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Yep, as you said, a couple of halves here half
there three weeks building in that was coming and you
don't Ricky stew would never admit this, but fourteen errors
against the Dragons, and the one thing that showed me
that they went dialed in is that Cole Funning and
out kicked Jamal Fogey. There was a huge win and
(01:42):
Jamal Fogy pregame should have dominated in that part of
the contest. And we actually interviewed Ricky prior to the game,
and Ricky is normally stoic, he's confident and tells you
how these team are going to win. He was nervous,
like you could see that he was thinking internally like, Okay,
I don't know if we're right up for this. We're
(02:02):
probably not where we should be, and it just came
out in that performance.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
That's funny because I actually felt the same about Ricky.
I didn't see the pre game this week, but the
week before when they played Newcastle, I thought Ricky looked nervous.
Then I thought it looked different to any other point
through the year. He could obviously see like I think,
I'm not going to say it's the loss they needed,
but I think it's a loss of do them a
(02:27):
lot of good.
Speaker 2 (02:28):
I would suspect the Dogs the Raiders. That's a bit
of a kickstarter to say, hey, what we did that
week is not what we do from here on out,
and they I wouldn't be too worried if I was
a support of those two teams.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
I tell you what, well, Dounder the Tigers of all
the criticism and they've won three of their last five,
but they were just sew up for it emotionally. Before
we talk about the Dogs on that. You know the
Adam Dewey situation. Dewey played in the Hars, but he
wore the thirteen and his little stints at thirteen in
the previous few weeks. Oh God has made a big
(03:00):
difference to his football. It simplified his football, It's found
what he's best at. So even yesterday during periods of
the game, although he's playing in the halves, for me,
he was playing like a back rower a little bit.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
I think Feinu's got some growing to do. He's got
to develop his game like he can have flashes of bruins.
But to say that he's going to dominate the seven
jersey for the Tigers for the next eighty months, He's
got to have a lot of work to do on
both sides of the ball. But do we been an
experienced player. He's confident doing it doesn't matter where he plays.
He looks for a way to have an involvement and
(03:33):
he's a bigger body. And I really liked that he
had a run first mentality and opened up a lot
of other avenues of his ball player. He was tremendous,
like he was outstanding. Couple of try involvements, scored one
himself and then in the second half. The thing that
said to me that he should be the halfback going
forward for a period of time is four tackle kicks
(03:53):
in what conditions up twenty to four. That's a half
back mindset.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Kick the ball early, forced the opposition to do the
wrong thing. And Benji's got some challenges, but that almost
assures them that they're not going to get the wooden
spoon again. So that's a big victory. Yeah, that's right.
And you think about the Tigers and their wins like
they're an emotional team, like when they play it like art,
no one can really understand why they win, but they win.
And when they come against Lachland Galvin, all of a
(04:19):
sudden those issues defensively or disconnection in attack, it comes through.
So Benji's got a big job to get that team
up emotionally to cover some of the cracks they have
intensively an attack.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Emotion that is, the ability to get yourself up emotionally
for a game is a skill to be able to
do that. And you said before, when they turn up
at Leihart and they walk out and warm up and
it's a big crowd, they get up emotionally and you
just got to find a way to do that. You know,
when you're playing an away game somewhere and it's raining
and there's seven thousand people in the stands, still find
(04:53):
a way to get yourself up.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
And credit to them. The Spine were good. Do we
ran the football. He was the best player in the field.
Jerome Luwa had some nice which as happy Corus Hour
that Tri Syst and Duri Buller scored a try. Like
their Spine players were very very good.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
The Bulldogs players style different everybody else and it's a
lot of short shart passing, a lot of passing in
the line, and yesterday that was problematic in the web.
They've struggled this year in the wet weather football. There's
no doubt going into the big game.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
They've done a couple of times.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
They going into these big games, Cameron is going to
have to have a look at adjusting their style that
all of a sudden you get their Grand Final day
and work it up in the morning's pissing down raining.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
So how would you adjust the style.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
I think they've gotta be less passing in the line.
I think just simplify the football a little bit. The
week before they simplified and rewarded for it. I'm not
going to say that their football this week they tried
to play more complex, but it was more complex because
more complex, that's right, you know, And it gives an up.
When the Tigers were up emotionally and because of the conditions,
(05:55):
I know, it's harder to move the ball across and
more dangerous to pass short in the line. They really
and I think the Bulldocks just need to be more patient.
I liked early in the game they're do an angle
changes and just testing them out. But they got himpatient.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
When you look at the Tigers tries in that first half,
do he around the ball, brokeer, tackle, corros our kick
you run from yardage and then the loose ball. So
they didn't really create try scoring opportunities through brilliant play.
The Dogs for me, when you're playing wet weather, I
think defensively they have the game style to create opportunities.
(06:31):
In that second half, kurk Man knocked the ball out
a couple of times and they got given the field
position and to score points. I think they went when
Stephen CROs actually like Stephen Grant playing fullback at the
red zone, like he's a big body set there, try
for pressing, beautiful work. So they've got a bit of
work to do with kind of Tracy not there. But
when they going left hand side, I think they went
to sideways to trying to score on the outside. Mate Burton,
(06:55):
run the ball back inside, drop kick out, cherry back inside.
Because the Tigers middle forwards don't have the tank to
stay with it for eighty minutes. They just went away
from what they should have done and tried to finesse it.
And the wet weather allowed the Tigers defense to shut down,
particularly on that left hand side.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
So I think in wet weather in Plant, when you're
playing bogs like it was yesterday, I think a good
step is better than a good pass and changes more
of that stuff. The two players who gave the Tigers
some problems when they decided to run and use their
footwork was Burton. A few times they curt me in
a couple of times just went showed the ball took
them on. With these footworkers, we went half through.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Because what you need to do is generate quick play
the ball, so the first person might run it for
five meters, quick play the next one's twelve, next one's fifteen,
and all of a sudden that Tiger's defense is retreating.
Matt Burton kicked out running the ball twelve meters off
the line. You're going to screw a try.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
Any yesterday's loss to affect your opinion as far as.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
It not a single thing. Eventually, I think the Dogs
defensively have an opportunity through their line speed and their
fitness to really rattle all the good teams. And as
I said off the top, there's a window here that
might go on for another week or two that you
don't want to drop three games. But like you don't
create bad habits now. But I wouldn't be too worried
(08:13):
if I'm a Raiders fan or a Dogs fan. I
think they've got enough confidence from what they've done. All
they really need to do is sharp and swords slightly.
But in attack wise for the Dogs, I would be
turning the ball back in underneath. And it's death by
a thousand cards. It's not trying to score them with
one player.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
Penrith within a whisker of being the biggest upset over
the course of the weekend. Firstly, about the trainer going
in front of the Jaden Campbell fifty thousand dollars fine
five game band, but I feel it's a breach of
breach of code of contact.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
So there's no rule as such.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
But it's more etiquette, unsportsmanlike.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
And I believe i've and clear whither that trainer did
it by accident.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
When you see the he's actually clearly embarrassed.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
They're a good club that do all the right things
off the field, so I respect that, but I feel
like the sanctions more about like what they've done with.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
The water on the border, and they've reacted to.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
That and did it cost them the game? No one's
got a crystal ball. But I will say this, he
kicks that goal. We're not talking about Nathan clearing the
two pointer, like his touches well when the game was
on the line.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
Incredible, incredible. Let's have let's look, we did this. We
did it last week with Dylan Edward, so let's have
the last five minutes from Nathan. And one of the
things here, Coops, is this is I mean, this is
the set of six of leads, so it's a shonky
ball there. You don't see him throw many of them
stage yep, down by two straight away, let him run.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
That's just programmed to elitness that like he just knew
exactly what he's going to do.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
And Coops kicking a field goal off a pass that
long world under Mitch Kenny too. But you're kicking the
field goal from forty out on your whel had to
take half.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
A step back to make sure he's behind the forty
and then had to hit it with enough venom to
put it over that there is.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
And you know we're watching him, he keeps like, you know,
it's the.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
Best pay about this is touch the ball, lot control
the direction of the set this one bit of a lottery.
Like he's probably not going to kick that one, but
tell you what, he had enough juice on it. But
what he's doing here is he's controlling everything because he's
a decision maker. I don't want other people to touch
the ball and send me off to a field position
and I don't have control of So he gets in
here inside TARLANGI here just trying to create yardage so
(10:37):
he can get this shot away. That's it.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
You just seen him handle back to back to back,
just taking total control of the game. He comes up
here with the field goal here, I thought that's an opportunity.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
This is the kickover a crossfield. So he's put in
a bad position here, so he kicks it across. But
he's manipulating the game. He's just taking it to where
he wants to do it, and he's trying to get
it In fact here I think he should have kicked
this one.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
Yeah, I think he.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Should have when he got the ball here, I got
game over. He's not just topped it, so he turned
it left and he's topped it with his right foot.
This one here, yep, classic, Yep.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
Okay, we're going to see we're going to see the
top end shot in a second. You're going to point
out by the way blas to Lungey just coming on
leaps and bounds.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
And they are too good at doing this for it
to be a fluke like this. But here, this is
the last play, Ny think clear on the right hand
side to play. The ball normally goes the first receiver,
but he's gone two passes wide outside to Lungey. Why
because there's a back rower defending at right center for
the Titans. He's just come on the field. And what
he does. He comes over here two passes wide, which
(11:41):
is normally he's inside tar Lungey and he sets up
this play by playing nice as square because he knows
he's got Casey McLean with speed and footwork one on
one with a back rower.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
And what happens, Yep, it gets him See that half
little pause.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
I wrapped up Mitch Moses last week for his foot
iq That yeah, that is that's out of this world.
That is smart.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
It is to put himself to understand. To go right,
someone's going to have to throw the absolute pass you.
So I'm not going to let the jungblow do it.
I'm going to push myself into that position, bring.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
Me the ball and maybe dar Lungi sets him up
and maybe he doesn't because every centimeter accounts in that
space for claim to do that thing. And when the
game is on the line, he just said, give me
the ball and that's what you want to play.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
It keeps just on that too. I mean the first
half versus the second half, twenty four nil down and
then they came back there leading twenty six to twenty
four the Titans, and there's no doubt there's a drop
off of intensity with Penrith and also you know, credit
to the Titans elevating themselves and started to get the
smell of a win. But the other thing too, is
now Aeo in the second half, came on in the
(12:48):
second half and then left early with that with that shoulder.
When I saw it, I thought it was bad, I'd say,
did I he.
Speaker 2 (12:54):
Played on for a bit. I'm no doctor, but when
he extended like that, I just feel like checking out
doctor film made with you on the couch. But when
he extended like that, it didn't look good. So yeah,
watch that.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
Based on whom the Dolphins, they were down to twelve men,
they get a penalty opportunity to go for a goal.
They said, now we're going to go for it. What
would have you done, Cooper.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
Condition I would have kicked the goal, But then I
look at the situation of the context. Issaco, the main
kicker who would kick it with his left foot from
that distance groin injury. And I saw Cartel. I have
a conversation with him, and when they scored the try,
Sarka didn't take the goal. Carta did. So I think
Cartel has gone, you know what, he can't do it,
(13:43):
And he probably said to himself, actually, I don't think
I can kick this. So to be down to twelve
players having to score a try with a minute on
the clock, I'm like, what are you thinking?
Speaker 1 (13:53):
Well, firstly shows number one lot of belief and number
two the ability to operate under pressure, extreme extreme pressure
and get it done.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
I think they also got lucky a little bit. Yeah,
down to twelve, the probability of them scoring like I
like that they just threw the ball around because that's
your best opportunity. But there was a moment where we
spoke about him a little bit on this show Your
Man Healsima. He goes down and like he laid down
on the ground, Like here he is here, the game's
on the line, Dolphins down to twelve players. He puts
(14:21):
in a really good effort. He to chase play across
the field and he's down there on the ground.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
To get up.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
Got to get up. Unless you've got a broken leg,
You've got to get up. And just a body in
the line might have stopped this. Like there's just a
learning for that young kid that he might have got
the boot. I'm not sure what happened, but he's just
got to get in the line. At the Warriors, then
look what.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
It's just the amount of important injuries they've got. You
lose your half back, you know, and it's such a shame.
But the injuries at the moment are putting the brakes
on this season.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
Very very tough.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Big blow to the Dolphins. Herby farm Worth to six weeks.
As with hamstring injuries, when you're a player like Herbie
who's express speed can be confect your confidence a little bit.
That's seventeen minutes. In the seventeen minutes, it was so good.
I think it was five tackle bus ran for one
hundred and thirty meters and score to try. Just exceptional
(15:17):
footballer and just getting better all the time. And Ker
he just works the amount of extras he does. No
player in the competition works harder than this bloke.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
He's physically gifted, that's for sure. He was causing all
sorts of issues as we see here for the highlights
through the Warrior's right edge, and they've done done a
tremendous job. The Dolphins like to cover some of those
forward injuries at different stages, even here when Herbie goes down,
just just keep fighting to get through and that get
that victory. But they can't lose gifted athletes like that.
(15:50):
Well that's their point of difference that attack. Like maybe
Aviarello is going to move to left center. I'm not
sure who's going to come in, but all of a
sudden there's a couple of tackle bus So you're not
going to get each game, and once you start coming
up against better teams than the finals. For them, I
think Herbie probably needs to come back for the chance.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
I mean, there's a club that's had a hell lot
of injuries and they just keep, they keep well.
Speaker 2 (16:11):
They play the Roosters this week and it's almost a
four point.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
That's a four pointer. There's a few of these starting
to come up.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
Mainly Roosters and the Dolphins. They play each other in
quick succession, and we assume the Sharks get seventh because
of their run. There's three teams fine for eight spot
and they're all playing each other and mainly might have
just cost themselves a chance by losing to the Roosters.
I think mainly play the Dolphins again at some stay soon.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
So we said that last week. Just man, there's just
too much going on in that club. A Broncos Broncos
big win over South injury ravaged South Sydney. This was
a very Broncos game, very Broncos performance. And what I'm
mean by that is it's just how they like it.
(16:59):
There's a bit of distance on the scoreboard between them
and their opponents, which allows them just to relax and
play football and enjoy their football. The big challenge for
the Broncos is to put themselves in a really tight
game with the game on the line and continue to
play that way and accept the result at the end
of it, because that's their football. That's how they should
(17:20):
play coop and not to harp back to that Grand
Final again, but sometimes I was watching that and I've
watched him recently in those tight games and how they freeze.
It's almost like there's still that little bit of a
hangover from that Grand Final, just that little bit there.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
I think the broncos A rap I actually didn't mind
the way they went about it. Go back and watch
the first five or ten minutes. There's opportunity for Rees
Walsh to pull the gun out of the holes through
and go for the throw or the pass, and the
thing that he was doing last week. He actually put
it back. He was quite conservative. They scored three tries
or something in the first half by not really doing
(17:54):
a lot. They just played long game mentality. Come out
in the second half and all of a sudden they
opened up. Ye. So I actually liked the way they
went about it now against the South City who were
decimated with players. But I think you just play what's
in front of you exactly. They did exactly what they
should have done. The test will be can they do
(18:14):
it for longer than the opposition with their full full health.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
And they look so much better team when they open
the field up where they don't play sort of tight
half field football. Well that's okay when you're trying to
work to a point and open the field up, but
just with you know, with Rhys Walsh and Ezra, when
they open the field up, my god, it just creates
space for them. Just half holes here there.
Speaker 2 (18:36):
I will say this. Wayne Bennett was surprisingly upbeat posts
press conference. He just had sixty foot on him by
the Broncos, and he was joking and playing around, and
I thought this was a bit strange, But then I
look at who they're playing this week. They're playing the Titans,
so this is potentially the Wooden Spoon game as levers
(18:56):
Wayne Bennett. Wayne Bennett's just had sixty foot on him
and he telling his team through that interview that everything's
all right and if you look at the way they play,
I'm going to give Lachlan Hubner a huge rap. There
were some effort areas in that game that I thought
this kid's got a bright future. Ashton Ward chased down Ricky.
I think it was there was an effort error. Tell
(19:16):
Us Duncan had some nice touches like he looked powerful,
he scored the try and so what Wayne's doing is
he knows that the Titans have more talent. His team
is decimated with injury, but these young kids and their energy,
if they win, is the reason why they win. So
don't look at their better players, look at their youth
for energy and excitement to out enthoose the Titans and
(19:38):
potentially whoever loses this game out of Dares and Wayne,
I think they're going to get the spoon.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
Yeah, I just can't see. I just see with Wayne's coaching,
the ability to just get his players to get things
done when they need it, no matter how unlikely it is.
I just don't see him getting a spoon. I just
think he'll pull something out.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
Well against the s the other week, like it was
just desperation and their goal and they just kept turning up,
turn up and get it done. Whereas the Titans have
a bit of firepower four and Brimson Campbell, some of
their centers can turn on when they want to. So
there's going to be an interesting game. Can the South
Sydney strangle the Titans, or does the Titans get off
(20:19):
the leash.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
For those young South Sydney blokes. How good is it?
How fortunate are they have Wayne as the coach in
this situation, like you get a rookie cage right with
what's going on now, he's going to pieces and he's
putting all the pressure on the young players. I said
to we had Keyon, Kalum, Tonguey and Talers dunkel on
last night. By the way, jeez mate, what terrific young blokes.
(20:42):
But I said to him, I said, how's Wayne And
they said mate, he yep up. Boot walked in, explained
to him and said, you want to hear the good
news when I have to watch that bullshit every So
he's obviously he turn up to train today. He's come boys,
put your boots on, let's get out.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
I think next week a bit like those are the
times when he got them out of the shower. I
got that victory for them in New zeal On the
week later. Like Wayne, if they win on the weekend,
it's that press conference that gets in the win because
he just changed the narrative on his team and energy
enthusiasm is a reason if they win, I'll get a
job done, kerb.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
I'm going to ask you something here. This is a
really interesting one about yours. You know, doctor Dr.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
Krump, client patient privilege.
Speaker 3 (21:24):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah mate, Camera Munster, Jonah
Pezit Melbourne Storm, this this puzzle Jerome years.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Of course, he signs on a four year deal. So
what that does is Jonah Pesitt has your ability. Now
he can he can walk, he can go to another
club Camraon. Monster still got a couple of years to
run on his contract. However, there's talk that they might
ask for an early release to go to Melbourne, to
leave Melbourne and go to Perth. Apologies work all that out.
(21:55):
So it's a puzzle to be solved. If Monster leaves
for Perth, owner stays. I certainly. If Monster stays in
Melbourne and doesn't get an early releases, no doubt. I
think Jonah's gonna have to get who will go somewhere else? Well,
let me ask you the firstly is if Monster stays
or doesn't get the early release, is it time for
Jonah to move on.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Without Crystal Ball? But Months is not going anywhere before.
That's just my opinion. If I'm Jonah Peasant, look work hard,
improve your game, stay quiet and you'll determine your own future. Yeah, yeah,
that's that's my message because what is now available might
(22:37):
change because there's some coaches that may not be at
the club or whatever. But ultimately he's got a period
of time with Jerome Hughes out to work hard in
the Aros. It needs to improve. Just stays super diligent,
stay quiet and just determine your own future by your performance,
is not by opportunity or movement. If that made sense,
yeah it does.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
Yeah, it would be interesting though if he does, Like,
where's the best fit? Because most clubs need a half
back or more depth in their halves. And so a
couple of years ago Newcastle made a really good offer
for you, and that looks like the perfect fit. I
mean he's an avocastro in Newcastle boy, he's a Newcastle
boy to go back. It was a junior at the
Night's perfect fit. However, him staying at Melbourne, they've gone
(23:18):
a different direction. They've got the Dylan Brown situation now
and that plan, so they might not be interested. Who
knows they might be, but you've got the Cowboys possibility.
There's numerous clubs which one if like for me, if
I'm looking around. I look at from Jonah, what's what
club it's a good fit for me? I'm sort of
(23:39):
thinking Cowboys. I think I think Cowboys would be a
really good fit. Your partnering didn't and there's a lot
of talent on that football side point. But I mean
the other thing you spoke about for the show is right,
we're talking clubs here where coaches are in significant pressure and.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
Things will change. Very provocative to say a team now,
I would double down and say, Johan, you've got six
weeks to show basically rugby, well what you've got, deliver
on that, and then you'll determine where you want to
go to after that. So a lot of changes between
now and then. The coach is a big thing, but
ultimately he'll determine where he wants to go through his performances.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
The HIA situation over the course over the weekend, Stephen
Crichton won, You've had to say on that, and I
think people agree with you.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Yeah, I think the game needs to look at it.
So situation on the weekend as Taylor May gets Category
one can't come back, Stephen Crichton on reports stays on
the field right, So the game needs to fix that
because you can't just have this keep happening at different stages.
So I don't know what the domino effect is, but
there's an idea that you could name eighteen nineteen and
(24:48):
twenty players. One's an outside back, ones are half, and
one's are forward. Right, Let's say, for example, Taylor May
goes off, he comes off, can't get back onto the game,
the tie night there outside back, but Crichton has to
go off at the same time because he's on report.
So then the dogs get there outside back on. And
(25:10):
if Taylor May cannot come back, Stephen Crichton cannot come back.
And if therefore, you can't move a forward for a
half or a half for a outside back. You need
to tell who the player is, what position they are,
and once that player then is no longer involved, then
the dominoff calls off. Like it because the example was Lindsay,
(25:31):
Collins and Nelson first kickoff in that prelim final thing.
It was, for example, both Lindsay goes off, Nelson goes off,
Lindsay's wiped out, his cat won. Therefore Nelson's done. If
the teams don't lose, because that extra forward gets nominated
to go on and play.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Yeah, the Crichton won on the weekend was hugely unfair
when Tyler left the field. You're going well in a
tight game.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
What hapens if Crichton goes on and takes on an
interchange back row who's defending in Taylor May's position. My
flick pass and scores are trying to win it like
you need to. It cannot be handcuffed by the opposition.
Foul play as simple as that.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
I agree. Cool, nice one made thanks to agree on
