Bring Milford back
WHERE IS FREDDY AND THE EIGHTH NO ONE CARES ABOUT THIS SHOW
Loving this show. Great back and forth between the two!
Great idea playing all Warriors games in NZ
like this show, would appreciate timestamps.
Who else heard that live? I sure did. "Get up Kyle ya F*****". Heard it as clear as day word for word. What a disgrace, everybody loses when somebody who represents our beloved game behaves like that. Exercise some self control or keep your mouth shut!
I disagree with Gus, they should use Montoya as an example and I doubt very much this is a surprise to the players. The only shocking part is probably that Marcelo didn't realize his big mouth was being recorded on LIVE TV!
To try and sell us that Milford is living in a straw hut barely able to care for is family, is both insulting and ridiculous. You and your fellow commentators only talk about players like cattle at a stockyard, if he is broke there is a bigger problem than a contract.
Taking a plea to lesser charges isn’t charges being thrown out, it is normally an admission of guilt and a reward for not wasting the courts time and resources, the moral and ethical arguments for and against this will continue until the end of time.
The only thing I agree with is that he should be playing. It is very confusing given the NRL’s current and historical protection of wag beaters, drug and alcohol addicts and worse, that these minor charges would keep Milford out probably means he doesn’t have a high enough profile ie: make enough money for them.
It seems as though you’re in a rush….but In a podcast with the Goat Gus…you shouldn’t have a time limit on this.
Milford in camberra was one of the best attacking open player. They played him too much at 5/8 at broncos
Honestly, imagine feeling sorry for Milford because he is suffering financially.
I'm just glad Anthony wasn't accused of something more serious than Assault, Like Offending Gay People, then his Career would really be over.
A few comments
Im wondering where has Milfords millions gone?
Given that, he should be allowed to play if there is no criminal case. NRL are overreaching just like many WOKE corparists organizations. You are innocent until proven guilty. HE was cleared of the three assault charges and no convictions.
Maybe Souths have a salary cap issue..
One day soon there will be a court case against the NRL and the integrity unit by a player due to the their role as judicator.
Tony Barber was Escort whistler
milford should take the NRL, south sydney and the police to court because this is so unfair you are presumed innocent untill proven guilty
Tell that guy to stop sucking on his pen.
Dude waa paid a million dollars a year four his time at Brisbane and somehow his kids and wife are living with the parents? Some people 🙄
8:40 how about the impact Montoya's absence will have on the warriors just as they're getting on a roll
24:17 Manthony Milford
People r going to be offended about anything. Whatever happened to having thick skin or more to the point how about free speech. Shouldn't even have been a fine.should be self policed within the team if other players r offended .
It shows the generational nature of outcry when it comes to the Montoya situation. The older the people I have talked to and Gus in this instance, do think it is an overreaction and should start with a warning and say that it wasn’t used in the context as a slur and is a term of phrase albeit a bad one.
I can understand their opinion of it as we really have come along way. Myself included, when I was younger I did use the word and the phrase thats gay. I never not once understood the impact or hurt I could cause with these throw away lines. I learnt in my early 20’s the hurt and stopped using those phrases.
My point being that NRL players range from 18-33 years of age with mostly in the 20’s. They have grown up in a different environment and there is really no excuse as these slurs should not be used as there is enough information at our fingertips. I think the 4 weeks is a fair stance surrounding the circumstances and the day and age we live in and the standards it sets for young men and women watching our game.
Milford has a gambling issue.. ask broncos leagues club how much money he has put through those pokies. Even at a meet and greet event, he was on the pokies and was annoyed that he had to talk to fans. Hope he uses this time to get help
If there's one thing Souths don't need, it's another player attached to their franchise with domestic violence charges. Whether they're legitimate or not, Souths don't want to be involved in that conversation.
well now they know the penalty, idiotic rationalistion.
Poor milf, wasn't he on $1m per year?
Gus is spot on
If the Knights are smart they will go after Munster and let KP go. Munster will be cheaper and is more reliable.
Thank you gus
cambridge cigs ad
Raiders are pitiful arent they….12-0 lead and gone. 2-4, but they will win over the Warriors and Bulldogs.
Milf been playing for how many years?
Where's all his money after earning a lot more that most 80% of society?
Most of us earn under 100k a year and most own homes lol
The women who assaulted Milford are they being charged? Just because they have a vagina does not give them the right to break the law and go around assaulting people. And they should also be charged for lying on a police report as well, its bad enough that you go and assault someone but you then accuse that person of assault lie to the police and drag them through the courts, so basically you get to assault them twice?
Integrity unit should be renamed to the injustice unit.
Milford has huge gambling problems along with his drinking and coke habit.
A. Totally sus from Souths. I don’t always agree with the opinions of Gussets Goulssh I do appreciate his knowledge and understanding of the great game. I certainly don’t agree with many actions, an inactions of the nrl. Bringing these issues to the Rugby League public is brave and the issue may be yet be resolved due ti this discussion. B. Attacking players backing into the tackler = crusher – No one wants to know about it – it’s in the way too hard basket and omg don’t ever give the defence any leeway whatsoever.😐 BLiGhT on the game? Got that right.
C. Origin – never write QLD off. EVER 💙
Montoya is a victim of the “woke” ideology ravaging the planet at present. Political correctness gone mad has us policing and punishing ourselves harshly. The fact that the “victim” of the slur was not even gay seems to be missed by all, and our indignation at a player simply using a “naughty” word seems excessive. Soon our thoughts will be punished, at which stage we can just drop our ball and go home!
Haas defended himself as anyone would in a similar situation. Considering his strength and size, the incident ended with less damage done than might have been the case if anyone else was in his position. He should be commended for his restraint! The “woke” NRL and Judiciary should reign in their enthusiasm before these witch-hunts have the effect of souring the public’s love of the game.
This data base of offending players is equivalent to doxxing and is obsessive to the max. How about we brand all offenders with a hot iron, to mark them for ALL to see and to ostracise them from descent society. Perhaps the stocks and whipping should make a timely return to placate our woke obsession. All in all this is a sport that’s replaced our thirst for gladiatorial battles to the death. Should we really be surprised the warriors we create take their aggression beyond the field. How about THAT duty of care!!!
What ever happened to "sticks and stones"? Grow up, he meant to insult him.
The million$$$ man had to live with his parents?
Gus is a legend he explains things very well
Great content! I’m really enjoying these longer shows.
Freddy and the eighth and immortal behaviour are splendid also.

Get on with the game it’s footy
It’s a man’s word
Gee Gus is a good bloke.
People like Gus are the problem with Milford,making excuses and blaming everyone else for his problems.Milford is responsible for everything that has happened to him and as soon as he realizes that the better he will go.
hey jacinda ardern, tell everybody in new zealand that new zealand government gave weapons to ISIS to overthrow governments,,
Bloody oath he’s been wronged, this fellas a great natural player, in my opinion it’s the leadership that’s wronged him.
its cause of Milford's color
