#83 Josh Mansour | The Bye Round with James Graham

[@Dellasus2011]

Sauce, Mate! You may not have a ring, but your fingerprints are all over the success of the Panthers... make no mistake!

[@taiyonatiare7918]

100% quite a few players just missed out on reaping the benefits of that Penrith rebuild but will always be part of the legacy ☝️

[@Aka_Luthy]

Unfortunately you are wrong!! Yes great player but played absolutely no role in the recent success in Penrith I know it sounds cute but let's be real

[@Bazar988]

😂

[@Bazar988]

How so

[@emma00b]

cracking podcast great player

[@prazzo1232]

Jimmy this is a masterclass of interviewing, and the Sauce is just a gem. Thank you, I am a better person for listening to this one…

[@taiyonatiare7918]

Hard hearing him talking about leaving Penrith to see them go on a run the following year and years to come. Can’t imagine how hard that must’ve been. He’s ingrained in that Penrith legacy regardless ☝️

[@okusfayreno8599]

Love when players are straight out and honest

[@beaul83]

Sauce is a Penrith favourite. Lot of great years that we remember fondly

[@coreyjohnston9195]

💯 what fish said to him that's what we all Penrith fans was thinking he should of been there with them in 2021 .

[@Whistler112]

Sure is, that's why they showed him the door.

[@MaxBrewsterNZ]

Great pod lads.

[@markspalding6092]

What a great listen this was, what a great lad Josh is! Some great lessons there, great job jammer, cheers!

[@Mahatheyew]

That's great.

[@KirkWilliamsIsBroken]

It's such a shame how his career came to an end. He deserved better.

[@abushanub]

im a huge souths fan but jd needs the sack

[@MaxBrewsterNZ]

Fire JD, drop Ilias.

[@taiyonatiare7918]

I’d personally give illias a little more time just bc he is a rookie but I’d definitely get rid of JD. Mans has no idea how to run a successful club and it shows.

[@smookie2351]

Unfortunately they just signed him for another few years . I agree tho. He needs to go asap or Souths will not play finals while he is there. ​@@taiyonatiare7918

[@Connor6569]

@@taiyonatiare7918 He's played over 50 games, barely a rookie.

That’ll fix everything!!! You’re a genius!!!

[@jeymandoh7301]

Great talk❤️👍👏

[@A1ianT0rtur3]

I fkn love sauce, what a gun

[@KojoGotMojo]

What a fucking legend!

[@YESITSHISTORY]

Knew something was off when Burgess left, Certain underperforming overpaid players on a power trip controlling the club & JD plus you throw in Churchill son comments about a certain individual who’s a imposter now this…Looks like the truth is out, It’s time the board & Crowe put a broom through the roster it needs a complete overhaul!

[@JaydeJackson]

As a Souths fan after hearing how JD treated Josh, my respect for him has diminished greatly.

[@marcusbou-samra5929]

What time is the jd bashing begin

[@mohammedabbas4466]

Proves what most know really. JD is a useless coach and the lack of respect when it comes to his man management is a joke.

[@arthurjones6364]

JD is all about JD.

[@johnfrawley5706]

wow i guess this is the fire jd show in this chat ok but i wanna know why are nrl players so afraid of going back into the regular work force is it the lifestyle they lived while in game? or can they not get up at 5 am and go work on job sites i seen plenty of big string former atheletes who could not do a days work

[@sbwmakavelli3833]

Mad yarn

[@flash6254]

I remember the Penrith game. That's when latrell wanted NOTHING to do with the high bombs. He left mansour high and dry, made him look bad.

[@chrishilliard3031]

Penrith targeted Mansour because they knew he couldn't catch then every other team did the same after that game.

[@Bazar988]

😂😂😂

[@elcucuy5304]

JD is a pretender

[@chriscancook9157]

Was listening to sauce say about his time under JD at Souths. In my eyes that’s an outright dog act from JD. Strung sauce along dangling the carrot then last minute drops it. Fucking dog act. Sauce you should’ve stayed at Penrith mate, played reserve grade for a bit. You would’ve cracked grade again easy and would’ve won a few GF’s. after hearing what you said about your time at Souths I wouldn’t want anyone playing under JD.

[@NexusVirtusMedia]

JD needs to go

[@leong3760]

South’s culture is toxic because of JD. He needs to be sacked

[@YESITSHISTORY]

Remember Burgess reports of certain players on a power trip controlling the club, doesn’t take a genius to guess who they are!

[@bigrock213]

Unfortunately that's the business... But jd is a shit person for the way he dropped that bomb.... He is business first team second.

[@taiyonatiare7918]

100%. It’s a business and these clubs will rark on about loyalty and stay for the boys but then as soon as they see a better option they’ll drop players like they’re nothing. Wheres the loyalty then? And to tell everyone he was leaving when he wasn’t even aware himself is so shitty

[@bigrock213]

@@taiyonatiare7918 mansour can say whatever he likes... The process in which it happened was shocking... To find out that way is bad... But that's business Jd is a business coach and he is obviously paying for his mistakes now with the way the team is performing

[@chrishilliard3031]

Mansour got dropped because he was crap under the high ball and kept coming in off his wing in defence. Can't miss tackles you're not there to make.

[@taiyonatiare7918]

Then why was that not communicated to Josh? Then to boot him like that in front of the club when he hadn’t been told prior shows JD has no respect for the players either. Burgess was right, JD thinks he can just sweep all their problems under the rug and move on but now the craps seeping through the carpet and it’s gonna bite him on the arse

[@chrishilliard3031]

@@taiyonatiare7918 so you were there and got JD's side of the story as well or just taking Josh's word for it?

[@hazziqs6945]

Yeah but you guys replaced him with taane Milne who’s probably worse… south’s have a boy at the helm

[@chrishilliard3031]

@@hazziqs6945 he was replaced by Isaac Thompson....who didn't drop any high balls and scored try too if my memory is correct.

[@leomika9411]

Let’s see you catch a high ball then 😂 flop

[@lukeo2405]

JD definitely had no spine. The truth ended up coming out. Let’s hope JD toughens up and returns to coaching
