David ffa’s done a back flip he’s not going to the roosters he’s staying at the Titans which is another excuse to bring out some great RoR League back flips before we get into maybe the biggest back flip of the last little while let’s start with the great Nathan Blacklock what a freak freakish TR scorer here we go I might give oh well that’s not a back fli oh there it is oh what’s the score boys oh that’s we’ve got our score cards at the ready there was a period of a couple of years he was Unstoppable wasn’t he he got learning TriCore I think two years in a row yeah that’s a nine that’s a it’s annoy he had the uh elongated track too CU he done the back flip and then the the other one the cartw played for Australia never got an origin jumper Blacklock went away in early 2000 2001 I re 2001 did he come on that TR yeah I think he did good fell tinger he is a good Anthony mundine there’s a common theme Here indigenous look at that that game he lit it up there chalk the end of it the double the double Banger what an athlete all the controversial aside for him to do what he did in R league and become a great boxer tonight I got an eight too okay dogs dat brace Walsh didn’t know reace Walsh was a back flipper here we go I don’t think you can do anything he wants yeah that’s a forward back flip wow that’s the uh the Blake Ferguson flip you don’t want to be doing that as a a coach would just be terrified I think that’s easier than the actual back flip you reckon yeah look at this God H when he when did he learn and then he’s adding up and under upsetting stomach get the quicker and it’s blue Blue Gator right now there is a sign yeah can we find out where he was born please South Wales he’s spewing blue that’s a sign oh go that’s I got a nine there for Reese good spew gon Stags big big man fast twitch a this for he didn’t let me go in the air that’s like an angry back flip that’s a night but he’s head doesn’t and go he just flips over that quick that’s an angry eight yeah I’ll give it an an angry eight it wasn’t spectacular but because he’s so big give you well over 100 kilos just all muscle hey um ree W she’s born in that great uh Sydney suburb of Southport that’s in the goldie you can’t pull one back there so maybe the biggest back flip David for Feer How Bizarre sign with the roosters what the end of last week this morning the Titans send a press release through and and on their website 735 saying he’s agreed to extend for a couple of years so trigger that option in will trigger the option his option to stay with the club and then five minutes later The Roosters came out and said that they’ve withdrawn their offer so who broke up with who but for feder decided he doesn’t want to go to Sydney he’s going to stay with the Titans oh was good for the but is one of those players creates a lot of opportunity would have been interesting going to a really strong Club about the roosters whether they unlocked him there’s a question mark too over how it all happens Leo why can you sign and then is there a cooling off period yeah 10 days oh sorry I didn’t so why the clubs this is why the clubs announce it I don’t think the roosters did they announce they pull their money did they announce it right well I wouldn’t be doing that there’s a lesson there so that’s the good you you just mentioned something there have we have we seen the official where the roosters actually announced them signing him yes we came through last week um FID probably had to make a choice that if he if he wanted to go to the roosters or penth who were were obviously cting him as well if he wants to get the best out of himself as a player there’re the there clubs where he could potentially do that but clearly they have a a defined work ethic was he prepared to go there and get into into their system or did he want to stay in the comfort of the one person could answer that and that’s David well last week he wanted to come to Sydney and this week he’s had a rethink his his girlfriend’s from penth isn’t she she’s from glenore park I think yes but I think she plays I she plays yeah his girlfriend plays does she she played for the blues W she’s a gun she go into camp and steal the game plan bring him back so any Espionage any reaction to did are you I’m not surprised by any contractual non plus situations so the roosters now I suppose the spin-off is that kryon Angus kryon some uncertainty about his future T You’ sign Angus yesterday yeah if this fell through with dve is a form player of the competition nearly he’d be up there the top three it just cost him 100,000 though for a decent [Music] manager it’s good to see Angus kill we know he’s had some couple of troubles last year he wouldn’t be a nicer young BL humble young fell if you given the choice Andrew you running the roster at the roosters for feder or Kon all depends the money depends on your team too you the roosters at the moment for fed is a weapon like if he was in a good system playing look at that TR you did on week I’m not Bing the butons but if he was in a system with some world class halves bringing him into play getting him one-on-one all the time holy smokes what about defensively though well that’s his ailles Hill the but that’s where the good clubs put people around him and you know they’re smart with the way they uh they’ll train that and have people around him to support he doesn’t need people like as a bodyguard he he he just needs to want to tackle yeah but then at the at the top clubs the the senior players hold everyone to account the coach obviously does but when you get the Sun strong senior blocks always it’s always player based yeah always and good luck to him all right well the Titans have kept their man and not just short term it’s another couple of seasons on the back of this they got their second win on the weekend in fact they’ve been pretty good the last month so his extension like that he agreed to or that he had in his initial contract was that a couple of years or just one more year I think it’s two right so have they added on anything I I can’t I don’t believe so but I I can’t if they came to you as a CEO and they said want to put these Clauses in the contract would you just Boogie on them I don’t you know what I don’t think you have options these days I think all the managers I just think they’re wired up with options G everyone’s got them you get any options no or SPS if they come knocking late night show new news yeah the new news just make sure it’s not and warm in the studio want to the new the camera one have a zoom on it uh on the way to the break with origin around the corner don’t think so what better time to have a look at some of the classic old origin openers it’s absolute
