2:10Last round gave us a couple of good games including a very tense worries when open manly as well as giant arrows emotional fine war appearances a revenue how are you and what do you think of the round? Hey Brad well thanks mate a YouTube build not Facebook unfortunately yep the the round threw up some some interesting results and games for sure Brad kind of relieved that's over now given how we've sort of the last few games have been a we bit tighter than we may have liked maybe we've just been so used to get and dominant ones all year that it's these tight ones don't sit well anymore but yeah otherwise all good and ready for getting ready and excited for the big ones mate how are you? Yeah good house yeah very tense sitting there in stadium watching that one against manly but I kind of talked to myself around

3:12it on the drive home going like off what would the school be like a wade was out there I feel like wadeeans are key component you know throw in a few others no lecha was there and things like that and manly to all credit I've been playing really well I passed couple of weeks and I know the media over in Australia is ridden the warriors off but they seem to forget the full shent dolphins almost lost the tightens yeah so um you know I think case for both warriors and dolphins when we talk about later is I think maybe their eyes were looking ahead a week already um with no real um not I don't see nothing to lose but they weren't going to lose their spot you know worst case scenario was the warriors would be where they are right now um and uh yeah the dolphins the roosters are really lost so the dolphins were going to be in the spot they were so maybe you give that a bit of leeway um and here jackos here you see deer them

4:14Aussie media turn on the was fast yeah there's still a few of them over there that are like don't worry about it um if they lost I think you give them all credit um and we got that tick uh shenelle got a feel goal I was worried if you got to a feel goal situation we wouldn't ever go that could do it uh got that out early just in case it's needed later on but while we live here on Wednesday evening so that PM you can also catch your show at your convenience on iHeart Radio and Spotify just remember to search for New Zealand Sport Radio there's always we're going to cover everything you need to know in the week that was rugby league including our top stories of the week or review of the round 27 matches we'll then take a look at the final letter um the final schedule coming up and the tipping comp we'll then answer some questions from you guys as well as questions for people each other we'll then preview finals week one look at the warriors team face the dolphins and then make our picks and then um send everyone on their way so remember to send us comments to questions throughout

5:15the show and uh we may as well jump in Matt let's go uh first one takes up most of the first page of the notes as you would have seen uh Sky Sport New Zealand drama Matt uh so I was sitting right where I am now getting ready to watch the rabbit os roosters game um we saw dry arrow come into the tunnel and about to come out they cut to a break um when and told us the the bedding odds for the game coming up and was like okay hopefully you know we'll get back and we'll see some by the time we got back he was on the field and it was basically over um I threw a few things up on social media during the time um it pissed me off um so it pissed a lot of people off um got a lot of news as you'd expect uh I've got the quote from the Sky Sport content he had Gary Bercher he talked to news talks he'd be and said the cutaway to the advert wasn't automated and it was made by the crew who were working working on the broadcast live and he said we got this badly wrong last night

6:19and we're deeply sorry uh customer feedback has been colourful and upset and at a point uh downright disgusted and the team will review what led to that decision the editorial process for the future we knew the significance of Jai's work walk out and we knew what the moment was to Jai and his family and his teammates and fans of the NRW and simply we have shown that moment uh we should have shown that moment in full life that's an obligation we have to our customers and two fans of Brookley yeah like you know me mate arm and absolute was all weakened my algorithm has been Jai Arohiedri and every time I see it um I'm a little baby bitch crying um so I was quite annoyed that we didn't get to see it it meant so much and Sky Sport all during the week we're using Jai Aroh to promote this game for people to watch it on Sky Sport and then the cutaway um for a gambling ad as well um which you know I like a punt like anyone um but yeah it just it

7:27wasn't a good look um and I know they tried to make excuses before their apologise saying that the game beforehand went longer than it was meant to but um I'm sure there's a way you could do something I don't know you all go I feel like it hurts their brand and the betting brand more by doing it and yes I'm saying gambling ads are very important for the whole sporting for Sky it is very important but it hurts the brand by doing what they did um people are still going to bet though so um how I put a multi on for this week so I um advocate as well um but yeah what did you think of it like I know as soon as it happened I messaged you and Rua and Hammer saying like what what the hell is going on here um I think even irrespective of what kind of ad it was it could have been Uber Eats or something harmless like that um it's just the timing was awful and for

8:33it doesn't help hearing that it was it was somebody making an error manually on the broadcast you know if anything it makes it worse um and I hope they do a good review and and take lessons from it because I think yeah rightfully so a lot of people pay a lot of money and they they're not shy putting their prices up every year um we pay a lot of money to watch product and and a moment like that's a big moment in the season for to for you to cover over it is it's just it's a blunder you know so they're deserving of their feedback and um yeah the fact that it's a gambling ad just that I think on the cake yeah next year you said I do love gambling um yeah I have a problem and I admit it all the time um but yeah it doesn't matter what commercial with cutting away from that moment I think is what um what was bad but yeah we'll see we'll see what happens um hopefully they don't

9:35have another situation like the gy one that they can um you know make sure they do properly next time we don't want to see what's happening to do I have a new one so um but yeah they did put it up later on their social medias um so you could watch it and fall um if that made it um and yeah so I'm gonna say these are most gambling ads haven't made it cheaper for me to get sky sports now I still have to pay 550 a year I hope they keep it at that price but I wouldn't be surprised if they increased that that would keep increasing that um I still don't pay for it so I'm still leeching off my dad's account um if he ever decides to restrict my access to it I'm gonna have to start paying for it myself but um enjoy it while I got it for free um but yeah anything else you want to add to the gyro stuff before we move on or no good all right next bit of news mate it came out not long after we finished our show last week Adam Pompey um rumours

10:39started to come out after our show that he's been um advised by the club that he's free to negotiate with other teams and super league teams interested they talked about um um uh like with well war brick grand Anderson and a few others coming in um he's probably a guy they could let go I know well war works probably not gonna see any footy to all a half way through next year but um at the moment I don't even have him in my team if it was me picking so I don't know I don't think he's gonna be on a lot of money but it could be money used elsewhere so um and super league he would do more than more than find up there um we'll see it's just being by the sounds of the thing he's just been advised he can start talking um doesn't mean that they're gonna get rid of him immediately um unless he finds another gig so he might still be around in 2027 um we're not sure either but your thoughts on the pop I'm sure we'll make it I'm sure we'll make

11:44pockets of the fan base happy um but yeah I mean we'll see you're right I think he would be he would do well and super league like most guys around that kind of level who've played a bunch of inner-hour games but um I think if we were to go we should give him his prox you know for being you know a long-standing member uh he he might get a bit of hate from some but you know he's he's come up clutch and sometimes when when you've least expected it and come up with a like nice plays nice tries um and even a bit of goal kicking so yeah he's definitely had some bright moments um alongside the bad ones um and like I think beginning of this year end of last year he'd really turned my opinion um because I was very anti-pompy and then yeah unfortunately um he's

12:45come back a bit uh still um a hell of a footy playout on his day um by your jackos made a good point pumps is a great backup for outside backs he's not expensive so but surprised they want to cut him yeah I I guess they don't yeah I think yeah he's probably on you know a reasonable price to keep him around as a depth guy but the warriors have been going to to let people work out early to be more than a depth guy if they believe they can do better elsewhere so it could be something as simple as that they they really like him and want to see him grow and develop and being a depth guy play new self-wares cup maybe not not what they think he's capable of um but yeah we'll see what happens um next bit of news mate uh Wayne got his dream mate um his son is going to coach Queensland uh Darius Boards been announced as the Queensland coach for the next two years um we'll see how it goes he hasn't got a lot of coaching experience he's had a little bit but to be fair

13:50neither to Billy Slater you know Billy Slater walk straight in um coaching a Queensland uh coaching the origin team isn't really the hardest job on paper you've got talented guys that have been there done that it's basically about picking the right players um so we'll see um your thoughts on Boyd have been the new Queensland coach I mean again I don't really know enough of him as a coach to know whether he's up to that level or not so it's going to be a let's wait and see I don't you throughout that Billy comparison I think this is just me outside looking and I would I would have thought Billy from from what I've observed of both them in media I would have thought Billy has a superior rugby league knowledge in brain um nothing again Stareus Boyd he's had great moments as well and plenty truckloads of origin tries been on the end of that great backline but um yeah

14:53I don't know Brad yeah well see he's going to have Wayne helping so I'm sure that's good if there's anyone you want to help you um in the coaching round it's going to be Wayne Bennett and in Jacob said Rumi Zazabia Wilson wants out of the Broncos we should make a big play for him in a true yeah I wouldn't say no to him for the right price I know we're very forward he'd be but um yeah he wouldn't be a bad shout depending on if the the price is right um you know what I mean if we were to get him that would be awesome yeah I think Anderson's going to help us out in the centres um and he's he's been looking one of the better players for the Broncos recently too so yes he's ending on a high there um now we've got a Vellandis chat mate we should have his own segment um I've got a got a few um he's apparently told clubs

15:57that he wants to wildcard weekend um potentially and it's back on the table and his idea roughly is that um seventh would play tenth and eighth would play night in elimination um matches to make it into finals I don't I don't like it uh even when you got 20 teams if you got half the teams making finals I still I still think eights to me um how does that work is that like two weeks break before finals and then in that two weeks these four teams play each other mate I don't think he's thought that fire he'd uh I just do two spots is it for two spots and extra spots it's true so it's basically they're just giving two extra teams a chance to be in the top eight for finals so assume you have your top top six line like locked in yeah and then uh seventh and tenth eighth and ninth play for like those final two spots um I I know some fans have liked it because they've looked at

16:59final eight now and they go well like there's two teams outside of that that are probably better than the bottom two teams in the eight right now uh should have been more consistent but yeah that's you uh as bad as the cowboys have been recently they got the points early in the season that's helped them secure the spot they're in and they've been rewarded for that millie they're probably only going to be there in extra week but um who's to say like a manly right now if manly were in this wildcard situation getting who's to say they last more than a week and finals either and we've seen we've seen the ball dogs things like the ball dogs and raiders have nice patches heading into finals which we're making some people think yeah maybe they should be there and then they fall off a cliff the next week it's the consistency like the dogs the week just weekend just going yeah yeah and um yeah it's just as jacko said it's all about the money you're getting extra two games in there um we'll see as as he proves time and time again um what he wants to do will happen

18:06I know he he spoke out about all the players protecting the six again and everything and at first he said um we don't have uh I've got the facts I don't care what their their thoughts are then he had a meeting with the RLPA and then he changed that to say we do value what they say um but the facts are here um and we're going to stick with the facts so yeah he will um I think I someone said it the other day um you know you could put him out uh in the middle of a so storm and he'll tell you how son of your day is um he's different than the delusion in there too um he's also spoke about the NRL grand final saying that they're close to securing an Australian musician to headline the grand final and that they don't need international pop stars to come in you know trying to throw another little jab and afmail where's he does um I don't really care uh I don't give a shit about the music um you know it's not like super ball half time show level quality um it's just some

19:10people doing a little singy song um so yeah it doesn't worry me yeah you don't care either I'm not a great you know I just kind of yeah I'm not getting a thanks real throw broadcast if you know what I mean yeah well it's not super ball TV they don't play TV like they do with the super ball it's for the live audience um but uh yeah just get um and so I'm just the area the old the old they alternate the artists from Australian Australian um but yeah it's not extra I actually enjoyed both shows yeah I wouldn't mind them doing well you would have seen it the NRL prime moment um yeah oh the scripts huh get scribe and um those abrogany artists out there and do basically what they did for the other thing I thought there was a banger of a song um they filmed they filmed uh scribe's part at the um game against the panthers yes as um he came out half time into the show

20:14got to tell them this is the stories about you being scribe and getting us free drinks me back in the day um yeah and joe cd never listens half time shows you know waste the time it's only for the people that are paying to be their live I guess um but yeah and then the last bit um which we won't go into too much because it kind of alludes to your question later on but after the news of the war is selling out uh their final smash in 17 minutes uh the landies as heavily suggested that the next one will be at Eden Park um so uh I still have mixed feelings about it um I did say a few weeks ago when they talked about it if you miss out on tickets you know it sucks to be you but you can watch it at home and their atmosphere will come through the television I almost missed out on tickets um yeah I still wouldn't um go on uh they need to go to Eden Park's where I can go um but and so I'm going to ask this scribe's clean I believe

21:19he is um um yeah and then so it's all the worries out at Eden Park but pvr needs money and joe cd we've got to get the prelim first worry about where to play maybe an idea well see what happens is if they lose against the dolphins next week they have a home game again so it could happen as early as next week if things don't go the worry is way this weekend um but yeah I think if that's that game they will um they will keep it a uh mouth smart but if it's the prelim that's where they want to go because the prelims the big one but yeah we'll see what happens I did see a lot of people suggesting um when Melbourne get it how come they don't have to go the MCG when they've got a smaller stadium than Maltz Mart um and things like that but they wouldn't sell out the MCG you'll get anywhere close in Melbourne because half of that state don't give a shit if we made a prelim and it got played at Eden Park and we lose we don't have the greatest record there let's be honest there's one I think

22:27can charge will be filthy yeah but um yeah we'll see what happens when we get there um you know a big grumpy old man yelling at the clouds sitting at Eden Park watching the game if it's that's the case because I'm still bloody good I'm half the problem there um but uh yeah we'll move on to the next talk um Tuy Gizzard apparently in uh brief conversations with Tyson Frazile to move to the club next season apparently um they pump the brakes a little bit due to the night still being in the finals but it sounds like it's almost uh guaranteed he'll he'll jump um not a bad move I think uh he's a leader there's a lot of young guys there that a guy like him could help um develop um so you got any new thoughts on it I think it is actually he won't break the bank too much as well um yeah I think he'd be he'd be a good get he's not one that will get

23:28stolen halfway through a contract to go to PNG either so um yeah might be good and then can months are declared he is going to November one and the Broncos are thought to be very interesting picking him up in 2028 uh another aging half they want to grab um it's not the the greatest business model but um I'm sure there'll be a lot of teams that will be interested uh they're like he's too old to move um but I'm interested the Broncos that I'm interested that the Broncos would be showing any sort of interest like what does that mean for you to remain like I thought he would have been as he on the out of the air or I would have been the wheel on airplanes for six there the where room is a few weeks ago which you know you can take the grain assault that you know match it had a guts full of him um surprise me but um yeah I think Perth

24:30should uh go all in um I'm really but I think I heard that they would like to go all in if they could get him early so he would be there for next year not waiting till 2028 and if they can't get him in 2027 they might they might jump off it um I don't see the storm I think the storm did come out say they want to keep him but I think if he got a good enough deal from Perth to go straight away they'll probably let him go um but we'll see and just finding us have uh have a puppy new guinea at the chief sign any puppy new guineains Alex Johnson um is the sole puppy new guinea apart from him no not yet um and Jacko as I said that he was a chasing that nutter Spencer from the trickies um that says further down my list but um we'll we'll talk about it now yeah worldwide sport reported that Spence Alenio and the roosters were part ways in that he will sign with the eels some people have said it's a done deal and they're waiting until um the roosters have finished

25:34the finals wherever they finished before it's announced um but yeah on his good days he's a great signing on his bad days um he's just a grenade waiting to happen as we saw in the weekend oh that was hilarious getting pumped by Keon and then chucking the ball away to have have a stir down was so funny and break what uh absolutely brain dead yeah um yeah the top two inches of uh left that man a long time ago but it's a bit like the Cody Walker thing I talk about if you can keep him away from that red mist he's gonna do so much for you on the on the field um which we've seen from Cody uh since I know he talked about it since he tried he kicked that guy in the head he realized he was going the wrong direction and he's kind of kept himself more grounded I don't know if the gyro situations kind of helping with that um but he's been a lot better so

26:36yeah if Spencer could do that um and Jesse he thought he was gonna start throwing punches but now disappointed again he is probably the only one we've got in the NRW that would forget about the punch rule and start decking someone so there there might be time um no I'm starting to think he's all back well that's who the back yeah um but yeah the eels um need some help there in the pack maybe um so if they can keep him on the straight in narrow he he could help by you we'll see um Jeremiah and Ann I is also apparently going to the open market um he'll get a lot of interest too um yeah I think that's a that's a Perth bear um all my I'm still he still wouldn't be a marquee signing would he but he'd be a hell of a sign in to get poppin you get me poppin you get me was probably yeah the well the uh Jeremiah and I well it looks like it's there out of the

27:38Hudson Young scenario now there's no no well they got snookered by Sticky um I don't think we we I don't think we brought it up last week but um the NRW of stepped in and said because the raiders have offered him a deal of 1.1 million a year the um the chiefs have to pay the same because they were going to pay him like 7800 um yeah so the contract that they were ready to offer him was denied by the NRW saying like it's not the same um well there you go yeah so um he might be sticking around at the raiders um so yeah Ann I could be the guy um you know we just got to see if people are going to blow up their own salary cat to try to screw over the chiefs now and offer some money for players to try to keep them um and yeah Jacko said yeah NRW snookered yeah I shouldn't say the raiders that um Hudson he's apparently not happy because it's cost him 250K

28:39yeah because he'll still get the 1.1 from the raiders but it's all text so um yeah I'd be a bit annoyed too um because he didn't demand 1.1 that was something the raiders threw at him so um but yeah we'll see see it all gets messy when you give these clubs special treatment mate um makes it just tough to manage um but yeah that's the uh the problem the NRW made for themselves and um this now you can see the chiefs using the CL away going um hey so and so just signed for X amount at that club when he was getting offered this much wire they've been treated at the same um but yeah we'll see um next bit of news Alex Johnson and Thomas Jenkins will share the Ken Irvine medal after both ending the regal season on 30 tries each I'm sure milky was a bit upset with casing the clean there was a couple um he probably could have fired his way to help him out but um

29:44think um great effort by Alex Johnson for catching up because milky kind of had the the run of that for a long time and uh Alex Johnson met we kind of would do all we were thinking about with him was breaking that overall tricep on record not making it unachievable for anyone else I was hoping he'd get it given that he'd done it in less games as like he's the true sort of yeah uptry his career in my eyes yeah but he's had enough of those medals mate um you know he could just think about milky that rubs me the wrong way too probably the team he plays for yeah um and then a few that you didn't get on your list mate marion sevy as announces retirement from the NRW um he finishes with 52 games to the storm prolonged history of injuries which saw him not get as many games as he'd like um disappointing um to not get more but should there's 52 games more than either of us mate so um yeah all the best yeah don't know what

30:47he's got in his future but hopefully um he does well and then the last bit before getting his signings and shipmate uh Fox Sports reported that the NRW super lead have agreed to a deal and um it's a 57 million dollar package um that will result in the NRW owning 50% stake of the super leak no word yet on what they plan to do they help the super lead but it sounds like that's probably something they're going to start discussing in the offseason I imagine um NRW would probably a bit more focused on the finals as they should be yeah but yeah we'll see what it means 57 million seems pretty cheap um yeah thought for like owning half of the leak um she's the one getting fresh guy yeah oh I don't have the money to go around but I feel like some of the NRW teams you would have to spend more than that to buy yeah um and uh jc NRW buying old folks home now yeah they've got to make sure the old folks home is good because some of their top stars are

31:49eventually going to head there the next few years yep um oh and uh Patel Popline who wins front row of the year at the Delhi EMS oh shit I don't know off the top my head because all the big names kind of had long periods out Jacko was gonna win it hands down then you got injured first just had some time out pain houses had time out that's a tough one hey I don't know who's been in like we can week out to collect collect enough points uh they have to give it to two of them yeah oh yeah yeah yeah there you go thank you Jacko yeah and the far who wipe from the roosters um we talk about them all the time about being one of the best so he's definitely one they pick two but yeah he's definitely one

32:49and uh yeah mantis is set fish yeah I think fish might get the nod I think fish is definitely going to get kept under the year I mean in my buy it stars yeah I agree completely able to fish has been outstanding yeah I just don't know if that time out that he had he didn't have too much time to be fair did he so he a couple weeks couple I'm seeing I think yeah it would probably be white and fish but you know I think white has been consistently the best um the best prop um for the roosters and in the year out so yeah it's just always blanks um he's still the dream signing for me for the warriors to pick up somehow but um probably won't happen for a long long time well going to signings man it wasn't many uh Perth Beers have signed Jonathan Suha on a three-year deal um and Dominic Young's extended his time with the Knights until the end of 2030 uh so a four-year deal not a bad deal for him I know some of the Knights fans are hit in

33:52this on him but I really rate him um he's good in that back five mate yeah that Dom Young and Marju Punch left right is is potent yeah and Amanda said fish is our dream signing what a difference um yeah I think we talked about it when they announced it and it's kind of we're not ridiculous man it's kind of working out like we said we said like compared to Adam what you get on the field isn't the same but it's off the field and what he can do for everyone around him that will be worth getting him and that's kind of what we're seeing and what people have said in interviews about him this week that um those young guys just respect him so much in the games improved um yeah I think on the field he's been great as well oh that's what I was just going to say on the field I'd say he's been better than AFB if you're going to compare who he replaced this year AFB's fallen off a cliff since going to the sharks mate he's still a great player but he's not you know properly he contender like he was with the Warriors so um doesn't help it in

34:57the team he's gone to but yeah um fish has been outstanding um love him a bit but we'll move on the injuries mate I didn't grab them all I just grabbed the big ones um tray mooney from the Knights he fractured his shoulder out of finals massive loss for the Knights with uh already Syfety out injured as well they're two big props gone for finals for the week they're going to be in it um then um pain has I know the Broncos are out but he's getting surgery on his hand it looks very likely he's going to be out of the World Cup which Paul was saying Kiwi's Ford Pack the World Cup is going to be mad but that's another topic all these guys that are falling out of the Australian and the Island teams are helping the Kiwi's out um but Jerome Hughes talking about that he's done his hamstring needs scans and could be dicey for the World Cup it's not um finals time without saying Jerome Hughes isn't going to play for the Kiwi's at the end of the year it kind of seems to be the pattern the last few years how old is Troy

36:03very disruptive year right it has carry on yeah as soon as that you you have Google too mate he's 31 okay my Google is cooking um yeah so hopefully the hamstring's not too bad because uh with Dylan Brown out as well the the Kiwi's can't call up strong Johnson like they did last time all caring for him as well um so we we kind of need help there um Chanel I think is still declared for Samoa so they can't get him but Tomati Madden will be available um Cody Nick are you right Cody Nick areema uh we've also got Kalim Ponga depending on what they want to do with him but yeah hopefully Jerome Hughes will be there and then Jo and Akin make from the rabbits fractured a scapula season done he was this close he was one a few days away from breaking his um finals drought and then he gets injured and he's not going to make it so he

37:04adds another year to not making finals uh disappointing for him uh looked look terrible was just uh uh shoulder in the wrong place and uh messed him up yeah um then valentine homes uh sendus Mosas injury he could miss the World Cup for the Cook Islands um which will be tough for them as well and then the big one mate um Sua Lani uh to him a lot of brown from the storm he massive massive hit me um yeah looked him strife was cleared of spinal injury which is a massive boost um but he's going for scans because he was still suffering numbness in the arm so it doesn't sound great um hopefully he gets through all right um but yeah your thoughts on any of those I feel sorry for a few of them obviously um and after the nights with Tray Mooney um to him a lot of your browns been playing really well for storm so yeah that one was a bit scary

38:06seeing the the stretcher roll out there so yeah hopefully they're all they're all recover well yeah and uh Paul and Amanda said bring Jett Cleary into the Kiwis alarm yeah man I wish I wish he'd want to play for the country who was born in but I don't know if he will I think he'd he'd want to play with his brother in Australia if he had that opportunity but yeah yeah okay we've got a couple more weeks with him sitting in New Zealand uh get Stacey in in Azir um but we'll move into naughty boy corner mate there were um there were three two of them don't matter um but Ruben Kodder he had a very serious charge and decided he wanted to fight it he won he did fight it and he got it downgraded to a $1,500 fine um so he will play this week um I assume you saw the hit um yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah send Big Puppa into another planet for a little bit yeah um what's he thinking yeah I think he

39:09was lucky I think if this wasn't finals time um he would have got he would have got done um but we know the NRL do like to try to save some players for for origin and they're not origin for finals so it makes sense um and he's got a pretty clean sheet as well which I think helps him out um but then uh black Larry from the dragons got a grade two shoulder charge two match ban for a guy that's finished um his NRL career so it doesn't matter um and then Michael Gabriel from the Sharks he's got a two match ban for a grade three killers high tackle he was only playing for the Sharks because they're still players so I don't think it's really going to matter for him yeah um yeah yeah um but yeah that's it for that we'll go into NRL wmate uh disappointing game from the Warriors again finals are done and dusted uh they lost uh 40 to 32 to the Sharks not a great way to finish in your

40:11final three games uh losing um to the bottom two teams and then having to face the Broncos um roosters continued what the roosters do 56 six win over the Cowboys nights put on a clinic 56 22 against the doggies um then I didn't put the rest of the scores in because that was how checked out I was after the Warriors girls lost me um me too I got them I got them here so dragons Broncos Broncos beat the dragons 20 4 16 Titans beat the Tigers 58 nil and then the eels defeated the Raiders 17 16 um so yeah your thoughts on there the Warriors girls mate you watched the game yeah um unfortunately just more of the same rate uh me for me it is we we look good in patches we have um really nice plays in us some great attacking players I think Stacey Waker even in a losing side

41:14has produced some really nice moments throughout the year but um I think Gail Brawton even said it herself like I just think as a team we don't look fit enough to go the full match with with these teams you know we we're getting run over the top off enough defenses and keeping up it was kind of more the same here you know having 40 put past us against a team that's not going to figure them but figure it all in the competition and and yeah we we looked um helpless against it yeah just not fit enough and I think um players like Marikina Gray and that didn't come into later in the piece and you know they didn't start with all the stars they had signed either didn't help them but you just not fit enough um but they know that now so it's all about you know for 2027 making sure they sort that part of the game out um but yeah disappointing um to see them lose like that again um but yeah the final round is this week Rooster's vs Bulldogs Tigers vs Raiders

42:22Eels vs Cowboys Shach Stragons Broncos Warriors in Knights Titans please yeah come right it'd be great finished on a high um but you're juicy where he needs very disappointing Griffiths needs to really toughen up his coaching going in the next season no lateral movement like a fitness and hearess are embarrassing yeah that team is too good to be where they are right now so yeah um better tough level I think um you know he's he's one of the best uh in our LW coaches going around so I'm sure if anyone can fix it he can um yeah they just need to put the work in um um but we'll move into the final round man um last round we have to talk about eight bloody games we can get into small rounds which will be good for the note taking but uh Thursday night Broncos defeating the Bulldogs 3420 yes let's try to four here for the Broncos pain hearts was on the board early um Josiah Carapani had two Billy Walters being hunt and Jordan

43:28Ricky for the doggy's Lockie Gelfon here two Nari Tuwala and Villami Kekele yeah uh the Broncos needed this win um it was it's been a terrible season um they put together a game where their attack actually looked dangerous for long periods despite having less possession particularly when they're able to get the ball moving um we'll talk about that in a bit um yeah uh when they're able to get the ball moving they did allow the Bulldogs enough points to uh keep things interesting um but whenever the Bulldogs threaten to make it a contest Brisbane scene to find another gear um this is a win that should give them a little bit of confidence heading back into 2027 um I think yeah it's a year you want to forget but you know finishing on a win is always the best way you can try to end a terrible season but your thoughts on the Broncos yeah I thought it was a great way for for them to send off club legend um Huckie again it must

44:35be frustrating for the Broncos I guess organisation fans that this is what they're capable of when their head is in the game um yeah it just seemed like their head was out of the game or there's been a disconnect there like with spoken battle year um Hi Podvans Max Russian here from the Chart Topping Guardian football weekly podcast don't like to crow if you enjoy the World Cup with us you'll be glad to know we're back for the new Premier League season expect three episodes a week questionable predictions and the biggest stories in soccer from the Premier League to the Champions League and beyond watch now on YouTube or listen wherever you get your podcasts you're a pro at running your life at committing to your workout at showing up every day at Bombas were pros too pros at making socks our sport assortment has specialized socks for whatever sport you're committed to running hiking golf pilates and so much more maybe sweat wicking yarns blister fighting details and targeted art support bomb is sport is pro level socks from the pros of socks for another pro you go to bombas.com

46:42telling in that team um great coach great coach in serraldo but then they pull out of performance like this you know um they've done it the last couple weeks with finals on the line and they just look flat um and normally they're very strong defensive team but um yeah not in this one they they had 34 points put past them against a a team running bottom four essentially or they're about so yeah I guess uh a poor way to start the uh finish the year for the dogs but it kind of also sums up the year yeah doggies fought well I thought but never really got in themselves into a position to actually control this game uh they did school 20 points uh but their defense couldn't keep Brisbane quiet for long enough to make those points count uh they periods where they look capable of mounting a comeback um but too many defensive lapses uh keep putting the broncos back in control and they should have taken advantage of that pain has some been

47:44yeah more and it was just a bit of an end to a dissonous season um yeah as uh I think we both had them as a top eight contender I think so um yeah terrible how they they ended their year um pain has top fantasy with 86 points uh he's her wipe it despite the simbin I thought he was massive in this final game for the club um who'd you go yeah yeah same despite the sim in spite of the simbin he was it's a good way for him to go out there he's done a lot for that club and uh one of the games for the best props so and I'm in the city go ego is the issue at the dogs HQ and mit the splinters wrong put players in the right places yeah I put Gus in the same uh same truck as valandis with that type of thing uh two two stubborn for their own good to admit they're wrong and uh Nicholas the thing I gave you all about when I was talking you said um are you absolutely two absolute legends confident you embarrassed Rowan Hammer with those 2026 predictions

48:46you're a guy to look I had to look at my predictions and I got to tick some off and um yeah at one at last year I think or the year before I don't think I'm gonna do it this year uh but two ballers on Sun uh so yeah I don't think my predictions are that well I have to wait till the end of the world cup because I've got a couple of world cup ones in there um including predicting England I'm gonna make it out of ball play so um we'll see uh I think that might happen now because I was expecting some or and Tonga to have all this stuff so um but yeah we'll move on right at night uh dolphins offend the Titans 24-20 yeah um yeah and the media is not all over the dolphins hey like you said Brad Fortrice the three for the dolphins the hammer had two herbie fun with and race stone for the Titans Dragon Campbell had two HF Brimson had one

49:47penalty golder Dragon Campbell yeah and uh yeah no one mentioned dolphins just straight through and they had two simbins for the Titans as well um yeah mainly one of them was with two minutes right at the end yeah um yeah this was much harder work uh then the dolphins probably would have liked the Titans kept kept at them infucilate the game disappear but the dolphins did find enough attacking moments to get the job done uh the encouraging thing for them is that they didn't completely lose their heads with the game uh when the game became tight they found uh the place they needed to scrape home and uh but as dangerous as they are they should have some concerns that they're only one by four against the Titans team and we're held schoolers for the final 33 minutes um but yeah such a dangerous team uh when they're on though so I'm not riding them off either yeah you definitely Brad I it was definitely more of a test than a lot of people had this one picked as um that to endure plenty of pressure um the fins that is you know that's

50:53to endure plenty of pressure from the Titans who were rolling early um I guess I think the more the game went on the dolphins found moments to sort of uh win the momentum and turn it in their favor uh and then in the end their weapons across their backline start to find moments and and try screwing opportunities to to swing it in their favor um and have a decent enough lead they did they did concede in the last 10 to sort of as you say make a game of it and put it within four but they held their composure which they'll need to do in finals but they're going to have to do it against any bit of teams than the Titans yeah and your thoughts on the Titans you're really good start uh starting guns twice in the first 10 and then the penalty goal to pick it up for it in 14 no laterally um but I guess it's just the usual story for the Titans um they don't have the

51:58ability to compete for 80 minutes and um when they switch off they tend to concede um you know concede points in in bunches and dolphins wrong team wrong team to do that again you know um so yeah very typical Titans performance I guess dangerous and patches yeah um yeah the Titans is her credit for making this uncomfortable right until the end but they'll never completely out of the contest and keep putting the dolphins under pressure but they couldn't quite land the final blow so another game where they showed enough to suggest they can compete but not enough to actually walk away with the two points it's the same thing they can score whenever they want um but yeah the discipline didn't help them in this one and deep defense to fend if the dolphins is easy said than done as as we've seen in the past so um yeah well well hopefully not have to have that travel this week um man just said Ru is on night of podcast

53:04post by Lincoln yeah um I obviously didn't watch it because I was at the game but I got to watch a little bit later great to see him on there um and um lie ahead how would you rate Fliggas season out of ten I think it's had a good year this year um I think you know has injury troubles getting just consistent footy again I think it's really helped him out um it's Townsend player um saw a coulda coulda tried to hit him with my car and Wellington mate he was walking across the road getting a coffee after the game um the night before the injury didn't the injury was at Leotel yeah there was some in the town yeah um and then jaguicy de ref out fins big time it was diabolical for shedding I forgot to mention that in the news mate uh Guy um he was in the the bunker for a game made a huge balls up so the inner-out punished him and he will be roughing our game

54:05a top full match yeah how's that punishment you tell me uh and Bridget is at Todd Bridges um he's been dropped completely because he missed the forward pass in the shakskin but he probably gonna end up being our bunker guy um touch charges yeah um but uh Brian Poo Panoey top squadron fantasy 72 points I went with hammer uh got got the double um was their most threatening attacking player um did you go with them too yeah me too uh double um well over 200 20 meters nice uh next game uh the big one uh rabbits to fear the roosters 50 to 20 yep 10 tries to for uh for the bunnies they've a forfeiter jade and Sullivan Alex Johnston had i mean just the one just the one just the one i was the same so used to

55:08giving him multiples uh Campbell Graham had two though you and achin kody walker Adam aliet latral Mitchell Brandon Smith there you go they shared it around for the roosters Daniel Tupo Rex Beth passing weight Egan butcher and Rex Besson weight had two what a name Rex Beth in way and um yeah Benny asked what my parents fee for pen and podcasts I'm the uh the resident podcast horn I go anywhere for free he's free no one wants me this year I haven't been asked by anyone um this year at all but yeah I'll go anywhere uh anywhere for nothing um I just like been out to talk footy so I'll go around you'll give you uh he'll give you his number you gotta ring him up and have a chat about it um yeah um 50 points uh against the roosters uh that's just not um not a good win that um south's absolutely putting the cleaner through them the roosters you know that they they're caveat to this the roosters decide to rest all their stars um but the rabbits made them pay

56:09for that decision and they were ruthless with the ball and seem to find another um another attacking opportunity every time they got into the roosters end um the really impressive part for me was that they uh didn't let it up once they had control um this was south's playing with serious confidence and they are a serious final threat win in the mood um your thoughts on the rabbits yeah great bro they they had a building opportunity to run up some good form leading into the finals against the roosters team resting their stars um they took they took that opportunity they took full toll and to put 50 points past the old enemy um yeah they were just finding line breaks in and in space all over the part as he kind of would expect I guess with rookies um filling out the roosters team but um yeah they look fluent um they're finding points of plenty and I think they

57:12know you have a problem you know against they're going to be a problem in the finals they get past week one um they've got the attacking form in them um and they feel like they've got a reason to play with with the whole joy arrow um they're playing with a lot of emotion um certainly the past few weeks it appears that that sort of dialled up so yeah they're dangerous yeah your thoughts on the roosters um I can't take a lot out of this one for me like I just I know a whole host of their players given the week off to prepare for an onslaught on team number one as we now know um that's panthers um and I expect them to roll out all their big guns and be ready to go week one and give it a full crack but yeah the young guns are up against it here um I felt sorry for some uh we saw the trail putting massive shots on and standovers um

58:16um and yeah we already touched on a bit earlier but the um the Spencer Lenny stuff um I think they need a lot those young guys needed a lot more out of the more experienced guys like him you know I know these uh rabbit os roosters matches always carry a lot of emotion but he needs to be a lot better there and yeah 50 points I wasn't I wasn't surprised with to be fair given the form of the rabbit os and the amount of people that roosters rested yeah it's um hard to review a roosters beside that can see the 50 points and we're completely unable to slow souths any down um whatever defensive structures that came up with uh into the game simply weren't working um because the rabbit's kept finding ways to get through them got a few tries in and didn't give up but a very ugly uh knight for a team that should be much better than this fun will tell if the decision to rest everyone works feels like with a new spine combination you don't want to do

59:20um you don't want to give them a week off the rest but uh yeah turn around this and we'll do what turn around this and we'll do mate uh the trail Mitchell top scored with 75 points but I went with Alex Johnson I thought he was dangerous he should have scored a couple more tries but um yeah uh he he's walking like he's got a few more upper sleeve before the years done but uh who'd you pick um mate skiden won on her in too much but I will uh i go jrm in last game may not have may not have played a minute on the field but the walk out and um seeing the moments with his mates that you probably will be the last time we get to see it i was very special um yeah i think next my my moment that stood out yeah no that's good cool you know you met Cedula or Troll was a sure he was sure to spend so yeah it looked like the trail I think he was a bit worried that he might not play the finals after that massive hit he did but thankfully it was all legal um yeah

1:00:22welcome to first grade for the poor little happy kids he could land out yeah um but we'll go to the next game on Saturday warriors to fin the seagulls 31 30 yep um squeaky bum time um six tries to five uh for the was Adam Pompey 10 to a picky had two chun's had two and 10 to a picky had three sorry i'm cutting your short tane um for manly Rubin Garrett had two lihyah bitey had two and Josh Felady yeah um bloody hell this was one of those warriors games it probably took a few years off everyone's life warriors showed plenty of attacking quality but they made our life incredibly difficult for themselves by allowing manly to stay right there until the final siren the important thing is they found a way to win um and to make the decisive play when they're

1:01:24absolutely had two it wasn't pretty but at this stage this season i'll take the two points and move on with the hope that they work on the lateral defensive shifts are before the game this week you'll throw it on them um yeah job done not enough to lock away that not by enough to lock away the mind and premiership um in terms of winning the game and coming through a tough fight from manly who were in pen and decent form the past couple weeks um with our young guns on the field at the end you know that was a deliberate uh thing from webby um resting egan and then to find uh a field goal you know a match winner in a tight a tight moment i guess that's good practice for finals um i hope it's a good lesson for finals also with with that edge defense because that remained dicey and we it's pretty well documented in everyone in the sitter rugby league media circles has been talking about it bloke in a bar etc been hammering home about it as well but

1:02:27they're right it does against these teams that have the ability to go wide with pace um go around our forward pack um we're looking dodgy there but i'm sure that'll be under the microscope all weekend or we'll have that tune for finals the the combinations have been chopping and changing i'm a bit less pessimistic than some yeah before i ask you about seagulls i'm jumping in the game man um yeah black in the bar i love them don't get me wrong um you know he he's a winger he doesn't know what the hell he's talking about half yeah um the the issue the the issue on the edges didn't happen in the past two weeks it's been there all year um we know that's our weakness we've played the dolphins twice this year we've won one by two they've won one by two it's so yeah so i'm not i'm not writing the fact off that if the warriors aren't switched on

1:03:33um the dolphins could put put them through the cleaners don't get me wrong they're always dangerous but um a lot of them are acting like this game's over before it even started there was a lot of factors in their egan as i said before um he is the most integral part of the warriors team um that's why they can have a new half every week because he gains out there you take him away um it made things looked a little bit clunky at times as jacko said um they they seemed to forget that Ali went off for an h a yeah um so we lost a center at that time and Eddie had to go out there there's a lot of factors i think when around this and um it's called me turbo was doing time me turbo things all night um you know i didn't fight away right in spite of having those troubles because i mean people go off at hi's etc um there's no excuses in finals games

1:04:35not when all you use um and yeah yeah like they still it's as just as i said i don't think the games over before it started for the dolphins and i don't think the warriors walk in you know winning this without doing some serious work either it's going to be a tough game it's probably going to be the toughest game out of all the finals games this week i i don't think so um but yeah i don't i'm not throwing the baby out with the bathwater um because they uh you know they beat the seagulls um yeah and yeah jacko said turbo isn't stupid he spotted he uh eddy straight away yeah as soon as the eddy got pushed out there they targeted him and it worked um which is what a good team does and um before i asked you about seagulls uh i mean i said are you happy with forward coming in eddy missing us huge call forward has to come back i said as tough as it was i'd be dropping tanner because it was the more like for like um on the weekend when i did my review i

1:05:38actually dropped a metric uh in my thoughts i said out of the tanner eddy and demetric demetric is being giving less returns than those other two at the moment recently but you can get blamed for either any opinion because i think every option is the wrong one uh i could sit here and argue why everyone should and there's even an argument that you go you know you've been great for us when you were there for but we've kind of moved on this year without you we need to keep what we've got and you come back in 2027 but we need forward so i get it but yeah i don't know you asked me yeah um there do these springs of different kind of energy and and hype um yeah and i think with cape well there um if you got a situation where a center got injured you'd move cape well to the center instead of eddy um

1:06:40so you've got that up your sleeve and yet tanner's been killing it so he has to keep it um and yet demetric i think he has dropped the level at the moment but his level is still well above a lot of players out there um and he's got moments and him is what i like yeah the short ball uh sure yeah uh the he caught the bomb the other week and offloaded i think it ended in a try for laban i think that was in the same game but he's just got an athletic athleticism and attitude i like which could be good in big matches oh man i i got a bit of strife in my review um spoilers read it if you want um my worry and improve for the weekend was jake and blabin um because uh it wasn't much because he he played great but he kept falling over me he had the same Tomkins in him um watching it live every time he ran he kept falling over and it was pissing me off so small things uh he just needs boots your thoughts on manly before we completely derailed the show before i do i i forgot to shout out to might as long ball

1:07:46yeah they're trying the corner yeah wow wow um one of the best of the uh manly other is outstanding effort um i think they were dominated in most of the stats but to have the strike and ability to move the ball wide and go around the outside to do damage which was where i guess their their advantage was and they took advantage of it um and all honesty if they had completed a little higher um and a couple of little moments don't happen the the turbo taking out jake and blabin to deny them a try um they probably go on and win the game um yes i thought they were really good um maybe a little unlucky but you know i guess away away from home they can be in news zealand against the was they can be pretty proud of that yeah uh manly will be absolutely

1:08:48gutted um they were a team with nothing to lose and they played like it uh to score 30 points away from home and push the warriors all the way to the end um only to come away with nothing is brutal that's the nrl uh they gave themselves every opportunity to win but couldn't quite make that one final play when it mattered the attacking if it was good enough i think the frustration for them will be the defense and their discipline um they just couldn't get it when they needed it um singdo found them mojo again um and should be a focal finals contender next season um yeah there was a few of them uh before we move on as well uh uh uh no i'll wait because these might deploy over the day um so i'll use it in there but yeah i thought it was a great game very nerve wrecking um but yeah it's uh manly we saw after they got warren and they kind of went off the rail last few weeks they've kind of gone back to that team that was scaring everybody so um and jackson who cares if manly are disappointed man it's my turn there might be manly fans listening

1:09:53you never know um tain to a picky uh top fantasy with 83 points he's who i went with got the hat trick thought it was a decent showin from him especially since he was dropped and got called in late but the reason i was going to mention the intercept try or intercept from json sr yeah he chased he chased him down made the tackle i was already ready to just can see the try they did get it a little bit later because of the break that was but thought it was a great effort from him and um just needs to get that goal kicking boot back as he said after the match he went from being um tain carder to tain johnson so um with his goal kicking but um yeah i was very impressed uh with what he did but uh who'd you pick yeah i went with him to me i had another couple i was ready to pull trick around as well um air and clay to my death um but tain with the hat trick going up against um turbo as well i thought he you know he had a good battle with uh he's head

1:10:59battle with turbo and he can hold his head high with the with the hat trick and and some great defensive play including that run down of sub sub called that ball i said gone similar to when he got one a couple weeks ago so i know um tain had the angle bully yeah the commitment he showed was was pretty special yeah um so we'll move on to the next game raiders to find the cab was 50 to 30 eight tries eight tries to five um for the raiders zavier savage at three careweaks cubby black had two josh poppuli and ethan strange for the cowboys jack cleford john bateman scottie drink water braiden burns and jason talmar all all yeah the raiders turn this into this game into absolute carnage uh 50 point performance uh shows how dangerous their attack

1:12:00can be when they get momentum and um they were particularly good at punishing cowboys whenever gave them opportunities cubby black put on a clinic and we're pushing for a regular spot in 2027 the downside of their performance is obvious though they concede 30 points which means it wasn't really defensive master class but it was nice to see them send big pupper out on a big win shame he didn't get that conversion because they took that bloody try off them um and yeah jacko said raiders knew her halfback was on another planet amazing debut yeah um that's another thing that i guess goes into the review for match he was with the broncos and he even said when he got out where he wanted out as well i think that keeps getting forgotten that they didn't just let him go but match essentially from the interview's cubby had after he signed with raiders he essentially said that um kevy wolders had a lot of faith in him but match didn't see a future for him in the NREL um so they got the degree to let him go um and then

1:13:08I saw an interview with sticky and he said Adam Reynolds actually uh spoke to sticky and said this kid's got it you should you guys should grab him so uh broncos halfback telling the raiders uh to grab their offcuts and it works um yeah thought he was fantastic um at a head jacko said pro match getting from everywhere i lost all of the match when he gave up on the kiwis mate um to go do origin um thought that was that was sad but yeah uh your thoughts um oh uh your thoughts on the raiders yeah i mean it's just the glimpse of what they're actually capable of and a lot of reasons to have optimism for next year um all the usual pace and attacking weapons, kweaks you can strange save your savage all standing out um but the daybrew of cubby black like you you guys already kind of stole my thunder but um yeah that was the story of the night for me

1:14:10he claimed the record for most points on daybrew uh running game kicking game out standing you a guy on daybrew is putting up lots of spiral bombs um drink water was not like in the look of him um yeah um now it's static from the raiders great way to finish the year you said you'd like you mentioned they can see it 30 points but it's not like points different matters to them that they'll just be happy to go out with a with 50 on the board yeah and your thoughts on the kiwis uh for the kiwis i guess it matters a bit more so on leave of the finals i think like many have been talking about the warriors i defensively this isn't great signs um they're up against it early with the sunbun in the first minute um but they should have they should have had plenty of time to recover from that you know that was at the very very very

1:15:11start of the match um so yeah that that that defense is going to need to do you turn in a week if they're going to stand any chance but we'll see i think once that i heard is at the past few weeks they've gone win lost win lost win lost so um they'll be hoping that continues continues and they get a release released yeah yeah um yeah the kiwis will be frustrated here uh because scoring 30 normally means uh you're in the driver's seat to head your way to a victory the attack was good enough to keep them involved um but uh the defense suddenly couldn't keep up with camber once the game opened up and you know they're already struggling a half time 30 to 12 um it was still a massive uh fight back they had to try to do um they needed a final way to slow the readers down and as said the match became uh attacking shoot out their favorite camber hitting on the finals with a wet sail and have to be the odds on favorite for a nearly exit um i don't know the stats i

1:16:13should have looked at it how many times have we had a uh a finals team can see 50 in the final round before um the final stack because we've got two here um yeah and Amanda said i still think the footy goes for making Todd give up on the wires and moving to cowboys to coach webs to his him yes yeah at the time i was so disappointed because i really liked what Peyton was doing um but yeah it's a sliding doors moment if he stays who's to say um we get we be who's to say it's still didn't happen we may have sat him by then um if he had stuck around um especially how he's been with the cowboys the past few years it's exactly the kind of thing the warriors would normally sack um so yeah we'll be we've got it it's like the dip will ring me mate uh we've got webs until he's 90 um we're keeping him forever uh kobi black 98 points of fantasy mate he's who i went

1:17:15with as you said most points on debut got a double was doing everything just looked um look the real deal as we all know you can have a great debut mate but you it's all about game two game three game he's just got to keep it up but yeah um very very excited to see what he can do in the readers who'd you go with save your savage had a hat trick but i think the fact that he's on debut code what kobi blanthed um it's it gives you a pass for bypassing hat trick rule yeah we both bypassed it i i thought for sure you'd go with savage so we would cover him a bit but yeah we'll move on to the final game on set they stormed defeating the sharks 24-20 four tries to three for the storm Hugo Piel saw far along all elic McDonald and Trent Liro with the shark sonica tour Riley Jones Billy Burns yeah uh the storm did with the storm tend to do they found a way to win a game that wasn't particularly

1:18:18comfortable uh the sharks did keep them honest um though he despite finding themselves reduced a living men but the storm were able to stay within touching distance at half time and they produced enough when the contest reached the business end of the match wasn't one of those storm performances where they completely dominated it was more about spiving in the moments when the sharks ran and getting the result disappointing year for them as well uh there's a lot of players there that don't know what it's like to have made mad monday this early but um yeah just another team against the end owner on a um a victory in beating a finals team in your final games not a bad shot either your thoughts on the storm yeah um if i'm honest like yeah it's a great way to finish the year the the match itself probably heading into finals probably not a finals kind of quality match um a lot of stops that action from both but i give credit to the storm they were the team out of finals

1:19:23contention against the team with more to play for um and they've had a lot go against them this year injuries wise but they they found the courage to pull out or to stay in the game and fight for the result first and foremost and then to pull out a a highlight real game winner on the buzzer um well at the bruh around the back from harry grunt was was pretty um very very saucy um even in a down year that's the kind of fight that typifies Melbourne storm as an organization you know never say die um like you said red we don't see too many down years from them so it's foreign territory yeah yeah and um you thought some that on the sharks my thoughts agree with the amantus by the way but yeah um yeah the sharks have been struggling for any cohesion i guess i guess since um trend was been injured

1:20:29and we kind of wax waxed lyrical about him all year um being almost the important one you know when he's there and playing well that rubs off on nico um but yeah i guess it shows the importance um of him to their spine um but yeah this game shows that they don't really seem to be finals ready in my opinion and i'm the one that kind of pumped them up at the start of year um i think trend was named to to play this week so yes uh they'll be hoping he hits the ground running straight away uh because if he does that'll make a big difference yeah sharks um it's another game they let slipmate they were good enough to win this i thought uh they kept the storm under pressure and had plenty of chances to put themselves on a position to close the game out but they couldn't finish the job it'll disciplined as you guys all mentioned about mullatalo um just yeah having a done moment costs his team a lot and

1:21:33against the storm uh you need to make those opportunities count because eventually they just find a way to punish you uh not the best form heading into finals and they want to watch that discipline but the return of trendle is a massive boost um i think it was jacko that said it when you were talking a lot a few weeks ago about how great the storm were looking uh not storm the sharks were looking you know when they had that big run when nico was kicking the dreamers life and i think jacko mentioned saying like have they peaked to really and i think that's what happened as yeah but given always does it he has this guy's uh primed way too really and then they they've thought every time he doesn't seem to learn um and i think we're gonna see that again this year i think uh i think they're gonna get through sportless with her way pic later i think they'll get through the first round um but that's because they're playing the cowboys so you got essentially the two worst teams in the finals playing each other um so it helps you know and men to say that at least katowa is looking on track to get medically cleared for next

1:22:36season that's great news um i didn't see you so there that's great news um Stefano tokamanu 71 points uh in fantasy i went with Tyrone Wushat though i thought Wushat uh looked very very good was heavily involved in the lops and we have the Perth Beers were very excited um they've got a player that actually wants to play footy um who'd you go with Harry Grant don't care what he didn't throughout the match the behind the back um yeah yeah for me what a moment yeah uh so we go to the first game on sunday meant dragons uh defeating the eels 24-22 four tries a piece for the dragons tarot Sloan Dylan Egan black lorry and Conno Males and um for the eels Jordan Samarani Josh Hadook Dylan Walker Jordan Samarani had a second

1:23:37yeah and jace setshak is coach not happy even the computer screen heard him yeah um this was a gutsy result from the dragons um they weren't able to completely shake the eels away but they kept competing and eventually found enough to sneak home with um off the back of that Sloan field goal um biggest positive probably uh was the ability to handle the late pressure rather than allowing the eels to steal it from them after a year where they let so many games slip um it would have been good for their fans to to watch some shows in spirit not not a pretty game for them and they'll still get the spoon but the future is brighter for them in 2027 um and yeah jacco said uh setu2 actually playing well what seems on the outer yeah he doesn't they don't new coach den yang doesn't seem to like him as much despite him being um one of their uh big attacking weapons um this year but yeah i thought it was a decent win from the dragons um

1:24:39i was happy to see them uh win because tyra our Sloan was playing so well and um i think it was silly that the eleting and leave they still looks like they might be rigour room and then i'd be trying to let them back flip and stay but um we haven't going anything confirmed yet but your thoughts on the dragons it was a great way to sign sign out uh our season i guess picking up the spoon they showed eeks of fight um kept coming back whenever the eels would eerge out it was kind of back and forth eels would score dragons would come back eels would eerge out the dragons would come back but lucky bread um and and this last game for the dragons for me it was the best part was seeing Sloan scoring a great try um and also the two-point field goal to win the game um didn't know he had that in him but there you go um the fact that it was him in his last game nailing a massive field goal as a game winner uh i thought it was really cool for him a guy that sort of had a lot ups and

1:25:45downs but yeah i know it's the team you hate the most but i quite like the moment bread yeah i um i hate the team with the passion but i really enjoyed this game uh despite that i think it helps knowing that even if they win they were still going to get this boom so it helped me um and you're mandice to our own staying in Australia now that's a good move of true yeah it's nothing confirmed but he basically said he doesn't want to go and i think he's got a bit of a regal room in his contract because he signed to castle foot to play under a coach there and they've sat that coach so i think he's got a way out but he's got to get a gig um there but he basically said he doesn't want to play for anyone but the dragons so um unless the dragons can make room for him we'll see um maybe with that might be why young's off set you two you might say you'd rather have Sloan than set you two maybe i don't know um but yeah he's way too good for super league at this point in his career uh your thoughts on the eels sir um it was a great start from the eels um

1:26:51scoring really early um and it was an armistice of the game i think the eels have a little bit of themselves to blame um they complete a lot lower than the dragons which sort of kept always kept the dragons with an arm distance and letting uh letting them back in the game and in the end i think that's sort of what has come back to bite them um yeah tough tough season for the eels but there are some shoots there just to pent up and that everything plays out next year with stopgap harbs and whatnot but yeah um another tough year another tough week yeah uh another frustrating narrow loss for the eels they say close enough to give themselves a chance right until the end but once again they couldn't quite finish a tight game in their favor uh when you're losing games by two points uh you start looking at little things in aero and missed opportunity your poor decision and unfortunately the eels had it

1:27:54enough of those moments to leave them empty handed yeah i rate Jerome Luay as a player uh say what you will about him off the field um i still think these these little half gaps it it's like sugar it might it might come in and they might be one of the best teams running around with him there but then he leaves and where are you you you end up falling backwards um i don't think they've got a roster good enough even if you add Luay to be a pre-missive contender next year so um at best you know he might help them get into finals and then you know what happens when he goes does that put them backwards again when they should be focusing on those younger guys uh it's the cliche it's hard to say you know but um yeah we'll see that's an issue for next year um i'm hoping that he comes with his right foot forward and helps them out and maybe he can really help those younger halves in the background um so that when he leaves um they can step right in

1:29:01but yeah Dylan Egan top scalded with 92 points i actually went with Tariah Osloan got the try i got the match winning field goal just looked like he um he was really played like he knew it was the last game for a club he uh very evidently loves a lot um so he he didn't want to leave any stone unturned so i thought it was great for him um had to give him his props me two same reasons and jagus had slown be great on the website yeah i think last year when there were rumours that the dragons wanted to get rid of him i said i would take him in a heart because i think he could do great things um underwebby um we've got a lot of wingers now but um yeah i think he would be great pick up for anyone if he um decided to give up on his love for that stupid team he plays for um we'll move on to the last game make uh probably the most uh second most watch game by warriors fans over the weekend panthers defeating the tigers

1:30:0138 team on the way to getting their premiership by uh a fierce wager points unfortunately yeah i gave up hope pretty early on uh seven tries to two or the panthers Brian Tau'ur case mcclean had three milky Jenkins had two and Dylan Edwoods for the tigers drowes keltin and solomoni ssikur yeah um panthers handled uh handled this one with a sort of authority you expect from them they didn't allow the tigers to hang around and turn the superiority into a comfortable scoreline rather than making the game harder than it needed to be uh the ability to put teams away once they get on top remains one of their bigger strengths and it was that this was another example of it uh final spanthers modes here and it does have me a bit more worried um they're normal but you know they're always a worry when you face them um your thoughts on the panthers i thought it was a really good head out with the minor premiership on the line uh they

1:31:05dispatch the tigers easily whilst welcoming back i say yo machikini working them back into this system um defensively they were really strong and and the the left edge of case mcclean and Jenkins uh they made light work of the tigers defense you know that a field day out there yeah and your thoughts on the tigers they showed a little bit of promise early and the second half scoring twice uh yep but i mean eight minutes later the pound the the panthers bounced back in and the tigers were never really allowed another look in and um yeah after after a great start the season has ended up being a tough one uh yeah i don't know i don't know what's gone wrong Brad i think after the first sort of half dozen rounds a lot of people were calling calling it a

1:32:05dawn of a new era but yeah everyone sang a bit too early i guess yeah the tigers were always gonna um have their work out cut out against the panthers but they just didn't generate enough resistance to make this competitive the attack struggled to create sustained pressure uh while defensively they were a bit forced into scrambling situations once the panthers got clearly was no real avenue back into the game they did have me excited at the beginning of that second half what you said uh i was hoping for a miracle but miracles don't happen off uh happen often in tiger town so um yeah i was like uh if they could get just you know four bull tries at that point and like get in a bit closer um and uh jacko said as bng said thank all the seasons over yeah it was uh as you said man looks so bright at the beginning and then yeah little trips png kind of derailed everything on top of the trees as well uh you know they were on a hell of a roll in and way he got injured then all the stuff would draw and then the

1:33:07ship would do e as well it was just every time it looked like they were getting in the through a good situation something would happen um and you know any little misstep um increases the media uh barrage against them so you've got to keep their nose squeaky clean otherwise it all unravels we'll see what happens in 2027 uh with them but uh case me clean top scored in fantasy with 96 points i actually went with milky um he got the double which he needed to um tie the record uh or tie leading triscore uh case he probably could have given him one uh to let him take it over but yeah i thought jenkins you know the story of jenkins this year has been a great story so i wanted to give him one more shout out um you know he basically wasn't even meant to be in this starting tank um he was basically meant to cover for alamotti until alamotti was ready to come back um and yeah never let that jersey off so yeah full credit to him and what

1:34:10has been a great season for him that finished two where he was sort of spinning you got spinning somehow had kept us what's about him to still whack it down was amazing yeah yeah great finish yeah i went kaxie mcclean atric rule you defied it's was in a night bread it's going on trying to be a rebel um by it kaxie mcclean was great um yeah as well um yeah so that so that was the final round man so we'll look at the nrl ladder one last time to see where everyone finished up um you get the top eight this time you get the teams out of the store around final top eight okay so i'm fortunate there was only one movement this week in the top eight and that was the the panthers leapfrog in us to claim the minor prem so panthers one was to dolphins three roosters four that's our top four sharks fifth rabbit oh six

1:35:15night seventh cowboys eighth that rounds out the eight yep and the teams that are already enjoyed mad monday seagulls at nine storm at ten raiders eleven bulldogs twelve eels are 13th broncos up to 14 tigers down to 15 titans 16 dragons they're 15 um yeah before we move into finals mate um if you had told me at the beginning of the year that we would be um beaten for the minor premiership on points differential because we had as many wins as the panthers i would have taken that any day of the week uh mille the closer we got to it been an actual reality you know i wanted that minor premission but um i'd elaster that's i'd elaster that suggestion if you told me that and started the year not in my wildest dreams mate yeah so um not disappointed proud very proud yeah and um yeah i think i had us preseason i predicted us sixth um but yeah second place very

1:36:19happy with great see i i did predict the dolphins would make finals for the first time this year i didn't expect them to be third um and then yeah the i didn't expect the cowboys and knights to make it but they know they got through uh cowboys still the only team with negative points differential in the top eight um but yeah some good teams um that just um and jagger said your second is great but must make it pay if we go out of finals in two games or not mean like yeah if they go out in straight sets who gives a shit that they ended second um as harsh as that may sound yeah um but yeah we do go into the schedule mate i've got our pretty little picture which i assume the neuro will help us out and update every week but yeah you have uh panthers roosters sharks cowboys rabbits knights warriors dolphins so um that's another thing we're talking about what jagger said about going out in straight sets

1:37:19unfortunately that could be a real possibility if the warriors don't beat the dolphins because i feel like it's going to be if you lose the dolphins you have to play the rabbits in the elimination game and no one will simply the rabbits right now either so um i honestly that doesn't worry me as much if i'm being honest there there is there is definitely a chance the rabbit i was get you on their day um same with the knights even if they would but without with the amount of middles they're missing i don't think they make it through but we yeah we beat souths with us having an off night i feel like yes the problem is though if they lose here then you have to play the rabbits which will be tough then you have to go and play the bandits that is the problem so we really you know dolphins gamers in tegrew they need to win that um but yeah we you got to play the game that's in front of you uh just tune up with the right attitude and and we should be sweet uh we will go to um yeah i am

1:38:27metasitistically if you finish second you're 78% likely to win your game verse third oh don't bring mess into this you confuse me oh no props props to your math so we'll go into the tipping comp i did look uh the tip still go into final so if you're in the tipping comp keep keep tipping um a lot of people use their jokers all now i think i don't think anyone's got a joker left over um everland is still first looks like everyone got five five out of eight sep rosco who did three and then your boy and act howca got six so um yeah it's all tight tight tight so even on this first the ueca second simon um after using this joker again has moved up to third you dropped a fourth boy from smb is fifth mb sports fan is six i am seventh so i'm still playing finals met um i'm the cowboys right a cow um rosco was eight beyond usus joker moved up

1:39:30to ninth hammer is tenth mac is eleven act howca twelve miss hammer is thirteen princess k of fourteen punishes fifteen um and manless ed manless edman makes me firmo i'll join next year yeah on my social media and stuff i almost put the link out that so um you can join it um all the better oh it's the biggest mistake i ever made me um i used to enjoy kicking your ass in the tips when you was just you and me um and then um moving into the ledger on our sin and i've fallen apart um yeah you gotta make a cap up for she who thinks but i listen to that checker you gotta train them right my one isn't even home because she knows that it's it's shown like um but we'll go into questions now mate um i'll go to my question for you first because i think you'll win like go a bit longer um but uh the past few weeks we're seeing the warriors exposed on the edges now that we're in finals mode does it consume you or do you think the warriors can

1:40:34tighten it up i mean it definitely will be a lingering concern especially against teams like dolphins but i think we can tighten it up enough i don't know how we finished up the year defensively but i think prior to maybe the past month we were right up there for defensive stats as one of the better defensive teams um although we might know the best edge defense i think when we're playing our best we have great scramble um and a very committed team who are very fit um and we're also we're also going to add leka back in capable um chance so you know there's there's people out there that have chopped and changed and out of the lineup over the past sort of a couple of weeks as well which is definitely not helped either through suspension or

1:41:35injury so i think we'll definitely have the boys primed ready to turn the intensity up to match the moment of finals and being at home i just hope we can do it um yeah and i was in a way that is controlled and we don't get him by the rest but you know it's going to be a game of styles bread this one in particular so yeah we get ours off that'll go a long way to showing up the defense because you know in theory it nullifies a lot of what they do so a long way to answer your question i think we can do it yeah yeah i think we can do it it may not be perfect because that's just not our strength but we can do enough to um mitigate and get our style off enough where our style wins over the weakness yeah yeah i'm saying i think

1:42:40we've got them primed i think the past few weeks they kind of knew they were safe and maybe mentally it took a backward step a little bit um but yeah i think we've got them primed as they all the cliché thing they say you know the new competition starts now so yeah i i'm very hopeful um that that we will get the job done but uh your question for me mate um yeah but of the personal one Brad as a long-term season member what does you'll take on the ticketing situation for home finals and all it's a little different in our alkoina take over but yeah i thought you'd have a strong opinion on this one yeah um i don't like the way they do it the inner out it's a pain in the ass and i don't like ticketing so getting getting on there was an absolute bitch um and then getting tickets was a nightmare every time you tick clicked on by like seats that

1:43:41set they're available it would say they're not available and by the time you realize that's not available the other seats around it were gone um and it was just it was like a lolly scramble and every little kid was out there running trying to get everything they could um we did thankfully get tickets um i know some members didn't which i guess that's hugely disappointing i i was telling them this is me um our first home final um as members you and i was that gave the blackout against the roosters yes to get our tickets i had i took time off work and i had to stand at Mountsmart stadium in a line um and go up to a real person in a booth and say these are the tickets i said in every game this year i want those two police and then they gave me the tickets and now there's everything's online now but um the decision from the inner out to give everyone eight um i get uh but it just makes things a nightmare and as Amanda said um 1400 bucks for

1:44:45all tickets from scalpers people are fake bidding the screw them over though yeah i don't people are gonna be pricks right um i as i told you i had two seats at two seats since 2004 been the long time i bought more than two seats for this because i was allowed eight i bought six but i bought six um or four of those seats were for people that knew they'd be sold out before it got so them to be able to buy them so they asked me if we give you the money can you buy them and i said yep sweet i'll do it um but these guys are going in and buying them with no intentions to actually use them and just make money um yeah i don't like and i hope the inner out can do something but how do you know until someone's done it you know you can stop them after the fact but they've already taken tickets to someone else can't get um i would be more than happy with you you have two season tickets you get two tickets um i wouldn't bet you can plan about that at all

1:45:48how many seats you buy and i would even like that they give you the seats that you sit in to make it as simple as possible going maybe they hit you up and go you're a member these are your seats are you coming or can we let someone else buy them and you go yep i want them and buy them easiest part that seems simple to me um what about the inner solution of Eden bad well yeah i still think you're going to have the same problem you're going to have our styles that would buy eight seats because you're allowed eight and then sell them all um you just have a better chance to get some seats but there'll still be people they'll miss out because people are taking more than they should um but yeah um yeah there's no right or wrong way i i think members get the seats they sit in is the most straightforward way but it won't happen because you know are like um to get it but they're going to sell out every ticket anyway i know but yeah it's

1:46:50a long way around going saying like it's it's disappointing but i got seats so i i'm happy i got seats immediately i'm sitting in the south sand um because that's the only place i could get them which is you know first world problems um but yeah there's a lot of people i know that have been members for a very long time um that didn't get a seat at all um so yeah i don't like the scalpers um i wouldn't i wouldn't be encouraged to buy them i think i said on here if i miss out i'll sit at home uh drinking beer that's a lot cheaper than what it is there and um enjoying it with my misses at home as opposed to going with my misses there but yeah i get to go and i'll go to the next one if it's any impact even though i hate that place um but yeah what about you mate you you don't have to worry about it because you weren't coming yeah i know but i've been there i've been there brad with you alongside you and i just feel for the members that

1:47:55a passionate members that may have missed out that's the unfortunate result of it you know so i don't know all the answers but um i really wish for the passionate long-term members they're able to secure their seats yeah i know that would keep a lot of the members happy they're going to sell out no matter what like you said yeah and um i know the the other thing we always forget um the dolphins have a set amount of seats that are allocated to them that you can't buy for their fans which is fair enough and but unfortunately as well the NRROW take up a whole lot of seats for sponsors that they get to come to the game so you can't buy those tickets because the NRR have already stolen them so when it's a smaller stadium like Mount Spat when you've got the NRR cheery picking a bunch of tickets too it doesn't help um but yeah it is it is what it is mate um yeah fingers crossed i get tickets from the next one too

1:48:55we'll move on uh two finals week one mate but as always we kick off with the Warriors um we've got the Warriors playing the dolphins on Saturday at Goamity Stadium do you want to give me the Warriors team mate for sure fullback uh taintour picky wings chancy and lofty centers are leotawa leka hula seam is named to return halves chinoe has to feed her to mighty martin front row for sheharis mitchbarnett wadeganhooka second row kukae poel jake jake labin lock erin klaak into change sam heli tannestell smith demi faemonga jackson ford named to return uh e it and adem pompy and the extended jett cleary twenty one luke loli twenty two macaia to four twenty three you know what do you think about that team mate good yeah very good um one and two tain and chans

1:50:04it's interchangeable for me i this is personal preference but i and i know chancy did great against the cowboys when he played on the wing early in the year but i might have gone the other way around there chans are fullback tain on the wing i just i know what chans does defensively from the back and how one of his real strengths is how defensive calms from the back and organizing the line i just think where we are defensively right now that i would have been tempted by that but um other than that i think that's the team's good enough to get the job done do you think they might do something where tain's fullback but on defense chans goes back maybe i'm just speculating here maybe they do a switch they might even switch it before and but maybe they go tain we want you there on attack but on d chans you go back there

1:51:05yeah i don't know i think maybe when uh wain we'd be much as c tain as um um to be some more more of a fullback then then winger nowadays but um that's just me i've seen tain play really well from the wing in first grade before you know um yeah i don't know maybe they're put him there because they don't want to him going up against ko bo or azarko in the year on the wing maybe i definitely think that that is a factor yeah um but yeah i'm happy enough with that team i think you'll see eddie drop off and jet come in because that bench doesn't have harbs cover so i feel like there's more than a forwards there so i think pompie will stay on as you're outside back cover and jet is the only half on that extended bench so i think jet comes in and then i assume once let me cut this back he'll be that half on the bench in that cover

1:52:09but yeah that's what makes sense to me uh but they might stick with what they've got there and bigger another way if the half goes down but you're looking at it if a chanel or a tamati goes down with that who goes in would you bring sam on and move e again i guess but you don't really want to be doing that in a finals game so i feel jet will be there um for the game but we'll go into the dolphins as always it looks pretty pretty terrifying attacking west uh fallback we've got the the hammer miso to be able to throw wings we've got jimana psycho and selum cobo centers jackboa so i'll be farm with um last kredinakarema and azale katowa front row is tomas fleggler jerry marshal king and tom gilbert max plat and um finny filly akie second row more than nol's lock bench got cut donny he raced on france is molo connolly limo limo philis kafusi and bradley shnida um that's a hell of a team

1:53:13there it's i think i was talking to him eight last night i said it feels like a glass can in game where both of these teams know how to score points but dolphins are not the best defenders at times and we've got our shoes on the edges so it could end up just being a shootout um but both games this year have shown otherwise with them both being 2.1s but yeah very dangerous team a lot of threats all over the park um but keep keep that backline quiet eliminate the four pack given the minimum momentum and the warriors should be able to get this and i'm picking the warriors so i think the warriors get this one done who you going with picking warriors also man you show a lot of um a lot of bias a lot of faith and i hope i know the hometown advantage is going to be loud in rowdy i hope so um and i hope i hope the fins feel it and i hope the occasion gets to them
