Thanks gents. Great discussion. Clear and concise. Unlike the Gordy, Hooper and the rest trying to push their agenda
Yet Gordy and Hooper will get on radio and still bang on about the same thing lol they are air heads.
Absolutely cooked that hopper has a job
Good to see a presenter letting the players talk and not being a flog by twisting the issues or trying to speak over then.
Stay strongs boys, look after the players. You are the NRL, without players no game. Being a fan, I'll be happy if you need to strike. Ive been there, done that and won.
facts.. been there as well with a former employee, they didn't last longer than 2 days trying to keep the company going before agreeing to terms..
This is the best convo on this situation I've heard, well done boys
Gordie is apart of the media now and the fact that ke kept cutting Clint off should tell everyone that his got his biased agenda. Same with the rest of the panel except for James Graham who actually listened
Gordie was sitting their trying to impress Hooper while Hooper was sitting their death-staring Clint Newton acting all pissed off when he's never played a game of footy in his life but realistically Hooper is loving every moment of it and wants it to drag on as long as possible so he can pump out clickbait headlines and bag as many people as he wants under the psuedonym "Foxsports Writers". Typical media trouble making gutless wonder
Gordon just sounds dumb mate, he didnt even know what they fought for back in the day. He should have clints back not call for his resignation
If Gordon is smart then my oh my he hides it extremely well. He's an absolute shocker. Going into political sports media beyond the fun analyst role on John's show has fully exposed him. He's hard to respect at the moment.
@@parkerhal nah man iv lost all respect for gordie. He has that "listen to me" attitude and talks all over people when he cant get a point accross. i watched this interview with the view that clint and the rlpa were a bunch of greedies wanting more cash, iv completely changed my mind after listing to this
@user-uo7vf3ne9w I am exactly the same. Gordon was a shocker when asked did he know what he wzs fighting for bsck then and he said no he didn't. He was going on about it again on triple m yesterday sounding more ignorant and stupid than he did the other day. I dislike him as much as Hooper now. Hooper was terrible with Newton aswell.
Good on ya Wade Graham! Great to see you spell it out and speak from the players perspective. Good lad!
Well said boys! hope this video does the rounds and more ppl can see what you boys are trying to achieve here! The NRL is so greedy! Hope this can be resolved soon, defs behind the playing group ✊
Brilliantly presented. Well done lads
Yeah Hoopers aggression towards Clint was appalling. Basically saying that Clint was the problem
Great to hear from a player / delegate / board member. Where did all the money go when Gallop & Greenberg were steering the ship down the drain?
That was great. Free to talk, no interruptions, no hidden agenda. NRL needs to pull their head in, get back to the table, and get this shitshow sorted. No negotiations = no players….ultimately no NRL = no revenue. Simples.
Aaron's opening statement is why the players have representatives look after them and their interests on their behalf.
COVID has exposed the NRL..good on the players for standing for their rights. 2Billion to if we don’t play we’ll be broke in 2 months that’s crazy. Players have every right to question where the funds are goin
Covid exposed a lot more than the NRL
Well said guys
Gordon Tallis yet again does not come across as the greatest thinker, and is pretty self interested. He has a media contract and role in NRL related activities. Comparing $100k with $400k from totally different era's is idiotic, inflation, house prices etc have all changed.
Also, using the 400k average is over the top. The average is high because of the $1m contract the top players get. There are players who are on $150k contracts
@@clarkkent2468 100% correct sup-man
Gordy struggles to articulate a question to the point where u can visibly see him getting angry to where he says "LET ME TALK" and shrug his shoulders like a kid, he would go down as the worst talk back host in the history of radio,
So the media are mad at the players for not talking to the media. Who would have thought. The fact they thing they can get the fans against the players is beyond me! The players are why we watch the game. Not because of what idiot it's reporting about it. They try to paint the players as brainless. Give them what they want
Why would you ask Tallis for advice, surely there are ex players of at least average intelligence available for comment
Just like Australian tax payers should be shown a breakdown of where the government spends every $ we pay in tax the NRL should show a detailed breakdown of exactly where every $ gets spent.
Full transparency
The NRL does release their figures. You can see it end of most seasons or by the beginning of the next. Last year alone, they cut operating costs by $17million, they also layout all new assets they acquire.
These two guys speak so well. Seems a bit strange that the nrl would not be doing what’s best, they are not idiots. Maybe they should just accept everything nrl wants.
Good on you Clint & the boys fighting for better conditions & pay. I think what a lot of people are forgetting is that playing Rugby League is these guys & Womens jobs. It is no different to the average joe at his workplace being in a Union & fighting going out the gate for better conditions & pay. Yes these guys do get payed a lot i keep hearing this argument. Guys that work in oil & gas or mines get more than blokes doing the same job on city sites. They are both in unions fighting for better conditions better pay even though the guys in oil & gas or mines are getting payed way more than the city guys. It is no different at the end of the day it is these league guys & girls job so they have a right to fight for better regardless of what they are payed. Stay strong brothers & sisters👍 Oh & Gordon Tallis didn't you leave St George for more? Didn't you go to Super league for more? Gordon also critisizes players for sayingc stuff to reffs etc not that i condone it but correct me if i'm wrong didn't Gordon get sent off for abusing Bill Harrigan? Gordon soon forgets his past. Funny Gordon critisizes players for media ban also now he is a media person. Massive Broncos supporter loved Gordon in his playing days but it's fair to say you have become a bit of a tosser Gordon👎
At 5 min in, I’m none the wiser, Wade & Aaron haven’t convinced me yet, as to what is going, but I’m open minded
If I hear another video of Tallis saying ‘clear as mud’….🙄 He’s flogged that phrase to death.
Good one
James Hooper, watch this from 2 ‘current’ players
Straight up anti union rubbish from the ARL and NRL
💯 facts
Give big Mick Gatto to come in as an independent mediator😂
On ya Wado ...
I truly want to support the players. It's so annoying though- asked what 3 or 4 sticking points do you have. Woodsy couldn't even spit them out. Just say exactly what "major" things must be changed to win the narrative. We know there's 100 things flipped and you want a mediator. They aren't doing a good job of getting opinion on their side.
Make it simple for us idiots 😂
Wade and Woods, why take it out on media and fans . Without the media, no one would even know the players. You wouldn't be getting the money your paid now. Channel 9 and foxtel have made you players' household names. Now, if you and other players had come out on channel 9 and foxtel and did what you did here, you would have more power, not go silent in media. Great way of showing thanks to the ones that could have helped get players' side out there..
Also, why can't anyone tell us what the 100 issues are
Players aren't taking it out on the fans that much. It's more the media that are having a cry about it. So many podcast shows out there with the players speaking out. Interviews on channel 9 or fox will be a waste of time because they're so one-sided they won't let the players speak out. Whi aren't the media after the nrl?? All I see is them attacking the players
True fan of the game will put the players ahead of the media-everything else....what kind of idiot is a fan of the media, Nrl staff lol-idiot
Seriously what kind of fan would side with the dirty media at this time-they are treating the players disgustingly-with their obnoxious talking points-handed down to them by Nrl scum puppermaster Evil Abdo.
Nrl is now telling JT-to stop showing his personality on the sideline in origin games-yeah Nrl are good guys-sheesh-get a brain ffs
Watch the game. I actually don't care for the media as there's a bias to some reporters. Better to watch the players podcasts
Fans? Who gives a rats about interviews prior and post game. Majority don’t care. The plan is to get the media to put pressure on the nrl who won’t negotiate. Guess what. The players are the game. Without them the media have no product
@@davidfife-nm7uy Say that again homie
Eddie simpson of dnp fame says it best to do with one part...
Nrl giving rlpa a $50 woolies giftcard, n wants to control how they spend the giftcard.
Hoops was saying the nrl players earm more now than ever before??? DUH we all earn more than we did before u dork, hoops himself will earn more this year than he did last year, thats how employment works mate.
So let me get this strait clint newtons been apart of the last three negotiations? How many times has he himself said that theres not even a real cba in place ?
It's funny listening to players acting like they are hard done by hahahaha
Why is it ok for Wayde graham and Aaron woods to speak on this program as current players ???
Am I missing something?love these 2 players but I thought it was a full media ban for players
And J Reynolds announcing his retirement via a media.
So much for the media ban
If I understand correctly, the ban is on game days…i e when the players are scheduled to play for their club, or origin. I could be wrong, but that’s what I read it as.
@@crazyprayingmantis5596 that was done on the bulldogs channel
Game days only
Go on a strike boys to teach these power hungry brokers a lesson
When the NRL had a deal worth 1.75 billion, it was to be paid over 5 yrs. So thats only 350million a year. The fact that the players are behind Clint is interesting, what makes Clint qualified to be in his position?
Lol you asking this question definitely shows your not qualified 😂. Clint is the right man 💯.
@@cdizzle3521 yep sure he is. Thanks for clarifying his credentials.
Its a democratic process he was simply voted in. What more credential does one need.
@Kimdax even player managers would be more qualified to sit down with the NRL and work out a deal. As this has gone on for 20+ months. If only this was done more in the public, it would be interesting to hear what the underlying issue truly is. At the end of the day, I support a club. their will always be a player willing to play for them regardless of the outcome.
RLPA: we don't care about the money
Also the RLPA: we want more money
What if your employer tells u that u will be doing 60 hours from now on but still b paid for 50 because we r expanding, oh and this can change at any time, oh and if u dont like it then too bad we are not negotiating.
Listening is not one of your strong points is it??
Clint needs to be sacked
Why?
@@DjDmt Bold of you to assume someone that consumes Fox media has the intelligence to explain his reasoning
Has there been an Indian in the NRL?
Why? the issue isn't with him, he's representing the players, and the NRL leadership are a mess.
I just think that if Andrew and Clint can’t see eye to eye then one needs to role. Clint has been there for years now couldn’t harm to bring in a new voice.
