These Bouris Podcasts are genuinely very good.
Mark has such a great interview style, reminds me of one of the greats “Andrew Denton” 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Mark should reboot “Enough Rope” … the culture needs this style of show in 2023
15 seconds in… I know this will be awesome.. love it mark!
Matty's impression of Joey... 53 minutes in, absolute gold 😅
53:00
Matty is always good for a yarn n a laugh. Great interview so far. Thanks
Long live the King Matty Johns ❤
Matty is always quality, a top bloke and a good laugh. Great to see him on here! 👏
Not one to write comments but this was an AMAZING podcast. Mark guided this conversation so well and Matty is just an absolute amazing him being. Honestly blown away, thanks guys!
Great interview. But as well as the game is doing now, (tv ratings) it's dying a slow death at the junior level. In the 21 yrs since I stopped playing, there aren't enough juniors to support the local area competitions. Sutherland shire, St. george Shire, and all the other competitions have amalgamated due to the lack of juniors.... My nephews are now playing against teams from Penrith to the Northern beaches to support a competition. Once you lose the foundation (juniors are your foundation), it's only another generation, and it starts to go down the path rugby finds itself in
Any time Matty talks my ears prick… love hearing his insights and his thoughts, such an intelligent bloke.. Love how invested Mark is aswell.. Fantastic interview, was hooked from the get go..👌🏼👌🏼
I'm seen the best interview in league......this is raw but real
A great man & very humble man, I'm inspired to go from ordinary to extraordinary.
Another great interview...
That’s was brilliant, thank you both!!
Matty is the GOAT !!
Lockyer was one of the great on field coaches. Directed everything at the Broncos and barely ran
Really enjoyed this episode. The concussion stuff at the end was really good. I have been involved in Rugby league at a local level all my life as a player, coach and currently an administrator. i have a son about to enter the sport and i have had concerns about it, everyone wants what is best for their child, team sport and rugby league provide so much to character, social skills, teamwork, determination, physical out let in a safe space in the teen years etc, but at a risk. While we can't make it risk free, as anything has a degree of risk, it's great to see people at the top of the sport showing the care for the players and it's not just a legal covering ass show. Having a former player say that it take away the stigma around sitting out as it's part of the framework is so good to see.
Amazing interview thank you for sharing .. ❤
Matty, you're underestimating how good you were. Maybe not as consistent as Joey or Freddy but skill wise you had it all imo. Great step, amazing passes and great kicking game.
Wish it went for longer, what a yarn
Matty is a king. Can hold your attention the whole time
I'd say to Matty, no-one loves anything as much as a younger brother his older sibling. The older sibling at some point gets tired of all expectations, keeping up appearances and perfection placed in his shoulders (either by family or society) then they just want out of the bubble. At that point the care factor just disappears, plus the stressors of life and generally first born kids are given a bit more to handle. As a rule, I'd say first born can be self centred, second borns are victims and third born are spoilt. Those traits can cause them to repel each other.
Interesting too, that Matty sees the game very differently than Gus who regularly criticises high scoring games. Gus always says 'how do they want the game to look like?' ... Matty says 'It's never been better'. I agree with Mat, we want to see tries and the playmakers rise to the top.
Great interview. I haven't spoken to my brother in 6 years. Wasnt a big fight or anything just moved apaart
I love this man.
Gen Z and millennials - theyre not drinkers, and clubbers like Mattys generation did...that 80s 90s gen, the second coming of the 60s, will be the last time hoomans without surveillance and intervention will be able to cut loose. People cant afford to even go to pubs anymore. Matt is trapped in affluence also, I've got a tiny bit of money to burn each day, and blowing $20 on beers chatting to locals is one of the best ways to live on the planet... he is both blessed and cursed, cursed by celebrity, and blessed to be able to live comfortably lots of other footballers of his ilk and generation didn't get to create an empire like he did. he is a very talented man. And his most interesting chapters might yet still be ahead of him.
Awesome interview
Awesome interview and an interesting conversation on various things, not just rugby league.
Another great podcast!
Great to watch hopefully the nrl are looking after the guys who have brain or any other life long injuries

Mad interview ❤
Cooper was the 3 peat before the 3 peat legend he is
Such a great sense of humour so funny
Great game great people
His my favorite player 👍👍👍
Awesome
Absolutely hilarious 😂😂
Great poddy
This is epic …. What a guy 👌🏻 if your a golfer is love to do a cast with you regards how golf is coached and why golfers don’t improve 👍🏻 aside from that great work ❤️👍🏻
I almost got to meet him when I was 15. But his forearms were so big, I believed he would whack me, so I pulled out.
Mr Bouris , Please interview an old great............ George Peponis.
Bouris looks like Simon Bakers dad or older brother more and more.
Matty was a good player he shouldn't knock himself ... but in the early days him and his brother were unbelievable together especially back then when every club had very good halves those 2 could go with anybody playing behind that hard Newcastle pack
what jumped out - is how athletes - are really hard people to be around coz they're competitive. they're ferraris. they're cheetahs. they're not like us. ever. till they cross over, they are different.
1:00:36 the game is faster and more skilful but it lacks imagination. The attack never happens except between two ten metre strips at each end of the field and every try looks the same. Live the athleticism of the wingers but aside from that, the game is monotonous. It’s coached to within an inch of its life.
Make headgear mandatory
The 18th team must be Christchurch
Give the Kiwis a sense of their own derby

Mattys the aussie Joe Rogan
2 blokes with the capability and opportunity to do so much more
Mark should be a Trump like Australian PM, Mathew should be NSW coach putting 10-0 on QLD
Both prefer “talking”
“Cameron Munster looks like he has all the time in the world” … does he? Not saying he isn’t great, but he definitely does not play like he has time 😂
🤝👍👏
Like last night when Gus said RL was going strong worldwide because of the Pacific nations comp. Tell me how many people live in Tonga and Samoa really 2 million max what a fcking joke. to be honest i think more live in NZ and Aust so what the fck is his talking about
I dont rate this past season at all, Its not even close to an even comp, It was better and closer this year so ill give them that. But somethings off for me
Showing the fight was stupid. Especially because it was a NSW man pumping up a QLD'er for hitting a NSW legend--also it comes across as Matthew trying to diminish his brother's career.
I find Mark spoke too much - let the person being interviewed do all the talking
Looking a bit rough bouris...🌀
Been taking drugs his whole career and still has a job. Lucky no phones in his day. Wanc
Copper Cronk or Joey Johns for ten years? What an idiotic question.
They like the pills and white powder 💊💊💨💨
No wonder Joey doesn't talk to Matty. His constant talking about Joey in the media. Poor taste....
Andrew sounds like a massive jerk, but Matty however is a very nice guy. True story my Mum met him at Melbourne Cup a few years ago told him that I (her daughter) is a massive fan of his and he said “that’s awesome” Team Matty all the way
What an awesome stream
This bloke wants to gobble off cooper Cronk. Christ !!
😂😂😂
sold out my arse dude they were giving away seats to the finals my newphew got a free one because no one wanted to pay that money.
matty johns very interesting but the bloke doing interview adds nothing like bloke in bar who just interupts to remind you he's still there
Can you add a link to your podcast please. I'd love to have a listen.
This is actually a terrible interview. Mark just talks at Matty for whole slabs of time without asking a question
1:01 Bullshit. The AFL has beaten NRL in every measurement you want to measure.
Pretty sure the NRL finals series saw a lot of free tickets given out to fill Accor stadium for the TV visuals....speaks volumes.
For my money. I've watched AFL and NRL finals. The AFL commentary is always on, 100%, excitement plus because something is always happening on an AFL field.
NRL. The commentators are filling the spaces between exciting play, such as when a player scores or almost scores a try. The rest of the time is filled with statistics of the team's previous performance or individual player performance. The energy of the whole commentary is considerable lack lustre compared to what you hear during an AFL game.
AFL is an exciting enough game to be entertaining to out of country visitors who have no idea of the rules. The game is exciting on it's own . NRL, too complex a game to be attractive to out of country visitors.
"Pretty sure the NRL finals series saw a lot of free tickets given out to fill Accor stadium for the TV visuals....speaks volumes"
For one game - for a team that is based an hour and a half drive west and a team from new zealand. The AFL crowd always brings up the crowd numbers - Rugby League is reliant on television. I dont know how many times we need to beat it into your heads.
The rest of your points are equally as rubbish. AFL doesnt have commentators?
I find AFL confusing and complex and the rules make no sense.
You forgot to mention people leaving thr afl in droves to watch grass roots footy and the biggest put off is the crowd sound effects they add matches.
Get Joey on
Old mate Marko swears a bit too much
A great conversation on the landscape of relative emotional strategy I mean footy 🇦🇺💜🌡️
Awesome interview.
