Laurie's...

problem, if you want to call it a problem, is he just hates to offend anybody.

So he's always second guessing how he's going to say something

and also what he's going to say, just in case it might offend somebody.

So he's got two conversations going in his head at times.

Okay, this is what I want to say, this is what I think, but this is what I'm going to say to the public.

And that distraction is probably why he comes up with Casey McGuire instead of Casey McLean, because he's not entirely focused.

Where Billy's got a great ability –

to sit down and basically really just narrow, why did you pick him for Billy?

Because he brings this to us.

This is what we want out of him.

And Billy's just got an ability to do that.

And then also at the same time, we'll just keep that in-house.

And he says – whereas Laurie – We're Queenslanders.

Yeah, but he's – yeah, we're Queenslanders.

But, you know, and everyone just goes, sweet.

Whereas with Laurie, Laurie doesn't want to offend anybody.

So he won't say, well, we'll keep it down in-house because that might – he tries to give you an answer.

And sometimes – well, clearly it hasn't been working with you.

But I just – I find it fascinating all the media games.
