Mundine & Blacklock! the reason why every kid wanted to watch the Dragons in the 90s!! Mundine always played great in every game!!!!
He played really well for the Broncos too (1997), and I remember being disappointed when he left. - Just imagine it, Renouf & Mundine in the centres, he was part of (in my opinion) the Best Broncos team of all time.
@@johnl9843 Great athlete and sometimes a great player, but not all the time. He whinged massively about not getting the five-eighth role, but Kevvie Walters was a much better #6 than him. Just better at finding gaps and linking. He and Langer had had years together and created magic alongside each other. Mundine's ego and sulkiness wasn't a big enough reason to break that up.
@@hannotn brah... read my comment again... Mundine played 'centre' for the Broncos :) He never played in the Broncos' halves
@@johnl9843 Read my comment again. I never actually said he played there for the Broncos. But he had for St George. And the rest of what I said stands.... there was no reason to break up the halves pairing the Broncos already had. And he whinged about it, saying he was better than Kevvie Walters. And he probably said something about racism.... he can't finish a sentence without saying that.
@@hannotn getting off track... I'm talking about Mundine playing 'centre' for the Broncos, yet you tagged me in with all your waffling about five-eighth, Dragons & gossip.
Mundine was The Man. Phenomenon Athlete. If you know Rugby League you know he should have got a spot in that Kangaroos team.
Facts mate......
I always thought he looked great flat on his back in a boxing ring 🤔
@@kw5732 bc he aboriginal
Phenomenon athlete hey? Phenomenon athlete.... Were you trying to say phenomenal athlete? Wow two seconds into an Anthony Mundine thread and look at what you get
Can’t argue his skills in on the field.
The man!
This is an example of a great man. If someone says no to you; go your own way. Make it to the top on your own calls.
My child hood hero. He taught me not to take no as an answer; but more importantly to not take it personally in a negative way.... just go to grow and be the best you can be
He aint lying.
At his height - what a player. Mundine, I think, became a victim of his own confidence. Many called it 'arrogance' or 'ego', but I firmly believe this guy was misunderstood. That 1999 season - just, wow. Name me a better number 6 that season? You can't. Freddy 2nd to Choc that year, ultimately lost to him in the semi. Absolute fallacy to not get selected for that Aussie tour.
say what you want about the bloke, but he was a phenomenal athlete.
You say it. Why tell others to voice your opinion just because you can't sack up and do it yourself?
@@matth6900 that's exactly what I've done. I really like mundine I don't have much bad to say about him, only good.
My comment was referring to people who don't like him all that much
@@matth6900 you're a dead set potato mate
I have to agree 100% with choc
hope the selectors got a kick up the backside when he left, Mundine earnt more rep footy
Never new him until he started boxing and he was a must watch don’t look away fighter. Fast fast hands
He was the highest paid player in the game in 2000 on 700,000 $
U must not know rugby league
this is the choc i used to see when i trained at Redfern. I did not know him but he'd always say hello seemed to be a genuine sort of guy.
He certainly got a raw deal
Can you upload the full video? Great interview
Can you guys upload the vid of Brandon Smith telling Matty to rename Nrl 360 to Nrl 120 and sack Kent and Hooper
Bro I just watched that video it's so good
Anthony Mundine and Shaquille O'Neal are a force to be reckoned with. Mark my words. You heard it here first.
30% of people incarcerated by 'mental health' authorities are Aboriginals. I've been in there twice myself and I can tell you conditions are horrible. It's time we looked after these people and give them back their purpose
That's a tragedy and a disgrace if this is true.He is one of the most gifted rugby league players I have ever seen.I played against him for qld at the national schoolboys open rugby league championships in 1993.From what I remember there was talk he was already in the aussie side before the carnival kicked off.That's how impressive his reputation was even back then.
So sad he decided to leave the game of rugby league.The game that brings out the best in you because it's so demanding physically and mentally.
If he decides to keep playing rugby league he would of donned the green and gold of the kangaroo's for sure.He was already having success in origin.It was only just a matter of time.You can't keep a quality player out.He had time up his sleeve.
We were all robbed of your best years of playing the game brother.So sad to see you leave choc!
Legend
good interview
He makes good point .....his speech is bad that’s from boxing 🥊
For real he was blackballed
“Mate, I’m sitting right here”. 😂
you can hate them man all you want. but the ARL did shaft mundine in 99 and 00....
Chock your a Legend.
There were a lot of good halves running around in their day
Shouldve been longer
He hasn't aged
Mundine is spot on. He was one of the best 5/8 at his prime. There was favouritim in the Rugby League system. Matty did a good job in his interview.
Subtitles please.
Left out of a 42 man squad fuckin bull shirt
Mundine was a athletic freak. I believe he was fast as Roy Jones. However Roy Jones just had more skill to show case his speed. Mundine was always too nervous to fight in the pocket. I think because of lack of experience and training earlier in his career.
He done pretty good in boxing considering he only went on natural talent everyone else trained boxing since they were a little kid Mundine was a rugby player turned boxer it’s like taking Roy jones jr in his early 20’s an making him play profession rugby league even if you don’t like someone you have to give credit to someone who believes themselves that much where they actually accomplish stuff that certain boxers who trained there whole life couldn’t achieve
When I think of Mundine I just think discipline
The selection would of been based on personality I'd say.
100%
great footballer shame he left the game
Awesome athlete...but, he is starting to sound like his speech is slurred.
Dragons 🐉 Fans
Imagine winning GF’s in the 90’s “ 92,93,96,99
If you don’t notice his speech slurring , you aren’t listening. He is punch drunk.
Matty rings him when his drunk. lol.
You just didn't make enough sacrifices choc , if you know what I mean!
Mundine was dudded by Australia all I can fell is racism should of played4 the warriors and kiwis
Hey chocolate you had to beat otke , beyer , green, Kessler , Calzaghe & Jones and stay undefeated for 10 years,then you would be recognised as Australias greatest ! Not even close 😢😢😢
He is the best !
He is the former WBA super middleweight champion
Who are you ?
@Alekosdw nothing to do with me ! He said he wanted to be Australia's greatest!!
Mundine over rated players true black falla always in the game tho can't be played. All natural players best number half 6 regards Benjie or JT but play before the rules today game.
I You don't know please.....
Pffff
can you be a legend if you gave up like a punk ?
Unfortunately whether right or wrong he comes across arrogant and no body likes an arrogant person. I acknowledge his ability. I always thought he had a chip on his shoulder due to his heritage. Maybe if he considered letting his skill do the talking then things would have been different. Interesting his nickname Chocko would be considered racist by some yet he proudly wears it as a tag - so is he in a way supporting racist labeling?
In this white world if you're an outspoken Blackfulla that's a big no-no,The chip on the Shoulder comes from the Arseholes dislikeing someone who believes in their Ability.Petty Jealousy you learnt something today,Take your Bum Sniffing Rugby back to England where you Relatives come from Dopey David!
Shut up
Choc refers too his like of chocolates.as a kid.
Not a truer word said by Fenech you were no good at rugby league so you left
He couldn’t tackle, and wasn’t a team player. He was left out because he wasn’t good enough, not because of racism. The cream rises to the top in every sport. He just wasn’t that good.
Load of bullshit choc was a great player
was he actually bad??
