What memorable moments were revisited in the podcast?
Triple M footy lives on, listener. Thanks to McDonald's and Ream Hot Water. Triple M NRL Daily for Liquorland. Legendary. Choose to drink wise.
The NRL is on Triple M. And we've got all the goss. Behind the scenes news on and off the field. From press conferences to inside the locker rooms. On Triple M, this is NRL Daily.
Welcome to Triple M NRL Daily on your Thursday, which means we've got the players in to preview a huge round of footy. The great Josh Grubby Reynolds is here as always. How are you, Grubby? Hello, mate. How are you? Man, I'm going good. But I'll tell you what, we've rolled in the big guns today. Gee talus, the raging bull.
I'm happy to be here, right? Like late call-up, making my debut for this year on a Triple M podcast. I'm excited. With the grub? Yeah, exactly, mate.
We've moved the salary cap around.
We've been earning enough money.
No, no, legit.
What are the new contact rules in NRL training?
I'll take a pay cut. I'll take a huge pay cut. Again. Yeah, again. We've ducked money off Jimmy Graham. We've ducked money off Wade. People were getting sacked.
Wade Graham did the show last week. He did his New South Wales team. So you're going to do your Queensland team later on today, which will be good. But yeah, it's been a great week of footy, mate. Big week on NRL 360 as well. Braith came off the back fence.
Yeah, well, yeah. You know, like, obviously... There's a fair bit to talk about and that show's opinionated and it was good. It's so good that I'm not in the press and in the headlines for the first week. But you know the best thing about that, right? So I say something, it gets jammed in the paper, Teller said this. Where's that with the Nastas? Nothing. It goes away quick. You're a bigger star, mate. No, no, no. I'm not saying that.
How does Gordie Tallis select his Queensland State of Origin team?
I never said that. All I'm saying is I'm glad it's gone away. And hopefully the Dragons can turn it around because I'm an ex-Dragon and I do feel – I feel sorry for those. You know, when you get the Tigers and the clubs that have been in there and they're trying to get it right and they're a merger sort of organisation, but they just need to get – The top offers, right. And it's still split. Once they get that right, I think the Dragons will move forward. And I think the way Dean Young, without getting too deep, the way Dean Young's handled himself, I think it's been outstanding. Like the way he said, mate, I'm going for the challenge and I can't let my kids in. Like I just looked at him and I'm like, I want to, like, you know, and he should have been rolled out the day before.
So the Dragons are still making a few mistakes, but hopefully they get it right on Saturday.
How good was that when he said it? I think when he said walk towards my kids. He said something about his kids. Mate, I was watching it. Oh, my God. I was looking at my daughter and I was like, I hope I did that for you now.
No, but like it's just that simple, right, that he's an honest man. And when you think of the young family at the Dragons and you didn't play, it would be like – it's like the Lamb family, right? So when it's – Terry Lamb, there's no bullshit about him. He tried his guts out every week in that blue and white jersey. Well, that's Craig Young. So his standing's here. And even Blocker and all those guys are playing.
What are the predictions for the Dragons-Roosters ANZAC Day clash?
He's been the chief, then his son. And I remember those guys embracing. He played for the joint venture. That's enough.
Yeah, I agree.
Like he's brought that marriage together. His dad played for St. George. He's played for St. George Illawarra. That should be over and move forward.
Yeah.
When you do pick your origin team as well, proceed with caution because Grubby and Wado picked the team last week and pretty much everyone on that team got injured.
Oh, right. We lost Turbo. Oh, so I picked my second side then. Yes. Am I picking my New South Wales side? Is that what you're trying to say?
Maybe. Maybe. A quick reminder as well, give us a follow on Apple, Spotify, Listener or YouTube, wherever you get your podcasts. And if you're listening on Apple, please leave us a review because we're on about 210 reviews at the moment and the hope is to get to 250 by origin one, Gordie.
