Happy: the New Zealanders had a win on the weekend, so

10
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:37,800
Happy: the two things could be related. Who knows? Who knows? Uh. Evening, Sally.

11
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:39,200
Happy: How was your. How was your weekend, buddy?

12
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:42,920
Sully: Yeah, yeah. Good, mate. I've watched, uh, the All Blacks, uh,

13
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:46,520
Sully: race to save his job. And, um, what's the Wallabies

14
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:50,480
Sully: massive come from behind. And I watched the Aussie girls. Um,

15
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:53,440
Sully: have I thought they had a wonderful game against England.

16
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:57,840
Sully: So I've had a big rugby weekend. Awesome. Yeah. Had

17
00:00:57,840 --> 00:00:58,480
Sully: a lot of fun.

18
00:00:59,900 --> 00:01:00,740
Happy: What about you, brother?

19
00:01:01,420 --> 00:01:04,580
Karl: Yeah, mate. Um. Look, it's it's been rough lately. I mean,

20
00:01:04,580 --> 00:01:06,860
Karl: I didn't do a lot of the line stuff because

21
00:01:06,860 --> 00:01:09,660
Karl: I thought Keith's, um. He had a lot more in

22
00:01:09,660 --> 00:01:12,100
Karl: depth knowledge of the of the English players, so I

23
00:01:12,100 --> 00:01:16,300
Karl: thought he offered more. Um, and work has actually been

24
00:01:16,300 --> 00:01:19,100
Karl: a little bit rough this year, but, um, last weekend

25
00:01:19,100 --> 00:01:23,300
Karl: was good. Um, I, I was, I was in morning

26
00:01:23,300 --> 00:01:25,940
Karl: a little bit after that second Argentinian game with the

27
00:01:25,940 --> 00:01:27,699
Karl: All Blacks, which has to be one of the worst

28
00:01:27,700 --> 00:01:31,100
Karl: all black games I've ever seen. Um, but they came

29
00:01:31,100 --> 00:01:33,699
Karl: back well last week and, and, and I think for me,

30
00:01:33,700 --> 00:01:37,460
Karl: the favourite time of my whole weekend was when the

31
00:01:37,459 --> 00:01:41,580
Karl: Springboks did their midfield lineout and got smashed and I

32
00:01:41,580 --> 00:01:46,500
Karl: just laughed. I just laughed, but um. Yeah. Hey, it's

33
00:01:46,500 --> 00:01:49,060
Karl: good to be back guys. I'm looking forward to this weekend.

34
00:01:49,100 --> 00:01:52,220
Karl: There's so much going on, it's just fantastic.

35
00:01:52,780 --> 00:01:55,140
Happy: Yeah, yeah. Um, yeah.

36
00:01:55,180 --> 00:01:57,260
Sully: It really looked like the All Blacks were had thought

37
00:01:57,260 --> 00:01:59,600
Sully: about that and then, uh, then come around and just

38
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,000
Sully: messed it up. I laughed, I laughed out loud.

39
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,960
Karl: Yeah, well, they, um, you know, the thing is, and

40
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:07,560
Karl: I understand why the All Black while the Springboks do it,

41
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:09,400
Karl: if you do it right, it can set up a

42
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:14,320
Karl: midfield maul. Where you where you are doing a maul

43
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,320
Karl: like you would at a five metre line out and

44
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,920
Karl: you're able to drive forward. But what they forgot was

45
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:24,280
Karl: that it's only a maul if everyone else joins, and

46
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,720
Karl: if they don't join, it's open play. And yeah, they

47
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,840
Karl: they tried to be a little bit too smart. Um,

48
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,440
Karl: Rassie likes to think of himself as the big innovator

49
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:39,360
Karl: and um. Yeah fell on their face and like like

50
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:41,560
Karl: you mate. I laughed out loud when I saw it.

51
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:42,320
Sully: Mm.

52
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,400
Happy: Yeah. The interesting next evolution of that could be just

53
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,520
Happy: use it almost as a dummy play, uh, and play

54
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,280
Happy: away from it. If everyone honeypots to the. Yeah.

55
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:53,920
Karl: You gotta be careful, though with that though, mate, because

56
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,120
Karl: you could get into obstruction very easily.

57
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:58,859
Happy: Oh yeah. But you know, if the guy has lifted,

58
00:02:58,860 --> 00:03:03,380
Happy: then does that remember they did that shift double maul. Uh.

59
00:03:03,820 --> 00:03:05,780
Karl: Double throw where that one guy and then threw it

60
00:03:05,780 --> 00:03:08,300
Karl: to another guy who got in the front. That that

61
00:03:08,300 --> 00:03:10,820
Karl: actually I thought was actually a good move. That was

62
00:03:10,820 --> 00:03:12,140
Karl: actually clever. Yeah.

63
00:03:12,180 --> 00:03:14,180
Happy: Yeah, that was real clever. But if they do something

64
00:03:14,180 --> 00:03:16,460
Happy: like that then play, you know, use that to play

65
00:03:16,460 --> 00:03:18,260
Happy: off to the fly half. It could be really interesting

66
00:03:18,260 --> 00:03:22,100
Happy: because you, you've immediately broken up the defensive line. So

67
00:03:22,340 --> 00:03:24,020
Happy: I don't know there's still more to go with that

68
00:03:24,020 --> 00:03:25,860
Happy: I think. But uh yeah, I think it was good.

69
00:03:25,980 --> 00:03:31,340
Karl: But I also think, I also think that, um, Erasmus

70
00:03:31,340 --> 00:03:34,820
Karl: likes to likes to show the world that he's an innovator.

71
00:03:35,180 --> 00:03:35,700
Happy: And.

72
00:03:36,140 --> 00:03:38,860
Karl: And and. Yeah. Good on him. Um. Sorry, mate. I

73
00:03:38,860 --> 00:03:41,500
Karl: still don't forgive him for the way he treated gardener.

74
00:03:41,660 --> 00:03:44,140
Karl: And the fact that he lied about the video not

75
00:03:44,140 --> 00:03:46,740
Karl: meaning to go online. As far as I'm concerned, he

76
00:03:46,740 --> 00:03:50,620
Karl: can fall down dead, and I won't. I won't bloody

77
00:03:50,620 --> 00:03:51,380
Karl: miss him at all.

78
00:03:52,060 --> 00:03:58,800
Happy: Yes, yes. Anyway, um, Just before we get into the, uh, review,

79
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:00,920

86
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:20,280
Happy: the Australian off season. Uh, but some of our northern

87
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:25,360
Happy: hemisphere listeners do that, um, and just get involved. Uh,

Happy: on your friends, um, and check on even people who

92
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:42,760
Happy: are acquaintances. Um, right. Let's get into, uh, the reviews. Let's, uh,

93
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,400
Happy: let's do the Australian game. What did you think of

94
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:51,080
Happy: the Australia v Argentina round one in Townsville? Sally?

95
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:59,580
Sully: Um, I, I was screaming, take the shot at goal! Yeah,

96
00:04:59,580 --> 00:05:01,900
Sully: I screamed at three times, but no, no, I didn't

97
00:05:01,900 --> 00:05:04,659
Sully: really scream it. After you've turned down the first one,

98
00:05:05,060 --> 00:05:07,140
Sully: you've got to go all in, I think. But, uh,

99
00:05:07,180 --> 00:05:09,500
Sully: I thought we should have played for the draw. I'm

100
00:05:09,500 --> 00:05:13,500
Sully: glad we didn't. Um, I think, um, playing for that

101
00:05:13,500 --> 00:05:18,740
Sully: win has galvanised hopefully galvanised the players. Um, and given

102
00:05:18,740 --> 00:05:22,540
Sully: them some, some bit more self-belief in themselves because that

103
00:05:22,540 --> 00:05:26,380
Sully: was a big win I think. And um, yeah, there's,

104
00:05:26,380 --> 00:05:28,900
Sully: there's problems in the team, I know that. And um,

105
00:05:28,900 --> 00:05:34,540
Sully: we've lost so many players to injury over the season, but, um. Yeah, uh,

106
00:05:34,540 --> 00:05:37,739
Sully: Tani Tupou didn't do himself any favors in that first

107
00:05:37,740 --> 00:05:41,940
Sully: ten minutes. Um, no, I love the game. I had

108
00:05:41,940 --> 00:05:45,700
Sully: a ball. Yeah. Um, I mean, you can nitpick about things,

109
00:05:45,740 --> 00:05:48,219
Sully: things in here and there, but, uh, I love the attitude.

110
00:05:48,220 --> 00:05:52,060
Sully: I think, um, Harry Wilson is turning into one of

111
00:05:52,060 --> 00:05:56,350
Sully: our better captains. Um, I think, uh, the look he

112
00:05:56,350 --> 00:05:59,150
Sully: gave Tony when the ref gave him a talking to, uh,

113
00:05:59,150 --> 00:06:02,590
Sully: would have scared the shit out of most people. So, um. Yeah,

114
00:06:03,270 --> 00:06:05,510
Sully: I think, uh, a lot, lot to like about this

115
00:06:05,510 --> 00:06:08,789
Sully: season for the Wallabies. And I hope it keeps going. Yeah.

116
00:06:09,430 --> 00:06:10,150
Happy: Can't you.

117
00:06:10,510 --> 00:06:13,110
Karl: Yeah. Look, it was a great game. It really was.

118
00:06:13,110 --> 00:06:17,350
Karl: I think um, watching watching the Wallabies have that belief

119
00:06:17,350 --> 00:06:19,790
Karl: in themselves to keep going and then achieve it was

120
00:06:19,790 --> 00:06:24,270
Karl: really cool. Um, I did laugh at at, at Hooper

121
00:06:24,670 --> 00:06:27,270
Karl: comments going on about it a bit and thought, mate,

122
00:06:27,270 --> 00:06:29,750
Karl: you really haven't got a leg to stand on, mate.

123
00:06:29,750 --> 00:06:34,870
Karl: Just shut up. Um, but um, I, I think, um,

124
00:06:34,910 --> 00:06:37,950
Karl: I think the Wallabies are starting to develop in a

125
00:06:37,950 --> 00:06:40,589
Karl: really good way. And, and when you look at and

126
00:06:40,589 --> 00:06:43,430
Karl: when you look at what Joe and Cron and some

127
00:06:43,430 --> 00:06:45,790
Karl: of the others are doing with the team and giving

128
00:06:45,790 --> 00:06:48,750
Karl: them that self-belief and giving them those skills where they

129
00:06:48,750 --> 00:06:51,190
Karl: can get going, I think they're heading in the right direction.

130
00:06:51,190 --> 00:06:53,810
Karl: So yeah, it's been it's been really good. And it

131
00:06:53,810 --> 00:06:56,690
Karl: was a it was a great win. Um, this weekend

132
00:06:56,690 --> 00:06:59,490
Karl: will be interesting. You know, the the ARGs would have

133
00:06:59,490 --> 00:07:02,050
Karl: been really hurt by that. Um, they've got their number

134
00:07:02,050 --> 00:07:05,210
Karl: ten back. I think I think I read somewhere that

135
00:07:05,210 --> 00:07:07,050
Karl: they've bought their number ten back. The one that was

136
00:07:07,050 --> 00:07:10,290
Karl: injured against the All Blacks. Um, and he's a very,

137
00:07:10,290 --> 00:07:13,810
Karl: very good player. So I actually think this week might

138
00:07:13,810 --> 00:07:16,770
Karl: be a little bit harder, but hey, good to see.

139
00:07:16,810 --> 00:07:17,890
Karl: Really good to see.

140
00:07:19,250 --> 00:07:24,450
Sully: Now, uh, I think Carl. No, it's still, uh. Santiago. Carrara. Carrara.

141
00:07:24,490 --> 00:07:26,370
Karl: Oh, it is, is it okay? I thought he I

142
00:07:26,370 --> 00:07:30,530
Karl: thought it I thought I'd read somewhere that he'd come back, but. Okay. Um,

143
00:07:30,970 --> 00:07:32,890
Karl: because he's very, very good.

144
00:07:33,210 --> 00:07:36,250
Sully: Oh, but Carrara is is no slouch either, so.

145
00:07:36,290 --> 00:07:37,210
Karl: No, no, exactly.

146
00:07:37,530 --> 00:07:40,170
Sully: Those couple of tries that they smashed us with last week.

147
00:07:40,210 --> 00:07:40,930
Karl: Um, yeah.

148
00:07:41,490 --> 00:07:42,610
Sully: They were. They were special.

149
00:07:42,650 --> 00:07:46,250
Karl: They'll be really disappointed that they let that last try

150
00:07:46,250 --> 00:07:49,570
Karl: and that they. And they would feel that I think the,

151
00:07:49,570 --> 00:07:53,310
Karl: the Argentinians are sitting there feeling that they let Australia

152
00:07:53,310 --> 00:07:55,990
Karl: win and they're going to and they're going to try

153
00:07:55,990 --> 00:07:57,910
Karl: and double down this week. So I think yeah, it's

154
00:07:57,910 --> 00:07:59,309
Karl: going to be it's going to be a good game,

155
00:07:59,310 --> 00:07:59,990
Karl: that's for sure.

156
00:08:00,510 --> 00:08:00,950
Happy: Yeah.

157
00:08:00,990 --> 00:08:04,070
Sully: It is hard. Like it is like when when you've

158
00:08:04,070 --> 00:08:07,910
Sully: got multiple penalties going against you. It is bloody hard. Yeah.

159
00:08:07,950 --> 00:08:11,429
Sully: In that ten metre zone, you know, to keep a

160
00:08:11,430 --> 00:08:15,190
Sully: team out unless you get them to do something illegal. Yeah.

161
00:08:15,230 --> 00:08:18,989
Karl: Yeah. So yeah, there was a couple of. Yeah. Interesting.

162
00:08:18,990 --> 00:08:20,670
Karl: There was a couple of posts about it in the

163
00:08:20,670 --> 00:08:23,910
Karl: weekend where people are thinking that the referees are giving

164
00:08:23,910 --> 00:08:28,870
Karl: the attacking team too much leeway on the on that

165
00:08:29,150 --> 00:08:33,110
Karl: in that red zone. Um, I, I'm, I'm a sort

166
00:08:33,110 --> 00:08:36,350
Karl: of bit conflicted both ways. I think the laws are

167
00:08:36,350 --> 00:08:40,189
Karl: actually really clear. And I and I actually think that

168
00:08:40,190 --> 00:08:44,070
Karl: the referees are right, that the defenders, the defenders are

169
00:08:44,070 --> 00:08:46,590
Karl: the ones who are pushing the line more than the attackers,

170
00:08:46,590 --> 00:08:50,130
Karl: and they're getting pinged for it. So, you know, be better.

171
00:08:50,730 --> 00:08:52,770
Karl: You know, you know. You know what the laws are.

172
00:08:52,809 --> 00:08:53,210
Karl: So be.

173
00:08:53,210 --> 00:08:55,690
Sully: Better. Simply a couple of offside calls.

174
00:08:55,730 --> 00:08:57,010
Karl: Yeah. Yeah.

175
00:08:57,290 --> 00:09:02,170
Sully: Um. And you can't blame players for trying to sneak.

176
00:09:03,010 --> 00:09:06,970
Sully: I know we're talking inches or or feet or.

177
00:09:07,970 --> 00:09:11,290
Happy: Yeah, at that point, you are talking inches. Um, I,

178
00:09:11,330 --> 00:09:15,890
Happy: I was the thing that made. And it was upon reflection,

179
00:09:15,890 --> 00:09:18,130
Happy: because I was shouting at the shouting at the TV

180
00:09:18,130 --> 00:09:22,930
Happy: during the game, but upon, upon I, I go full

181
00:09:23,290 --> 00:09:25,449
Happy: caveman mind when I'm watching the game. I've usually got

182
00:09:25,450 --> 00:09:28,450
Happy: to rewatch it to be a bit calmer about it. But, uh,

183
00:09:28,770 --> 00:09:31,809
Happy: upon reflection, the thing that I thought was really cool

184
00:09:31,809 --> 00:09:35,130
Happy: about the game from an Australian perspective was we we

185
00:09:35,130 --> 00:09:37,449
Happy: were hammered early on in terms of penalties. You know,

186
00:09:37,490 --> 00:09:39,689
Happy: we were gave up. Its the first game this year.

187
00:09:39,690 --> 00:09:42,370
Happy: We've lost the penalty count. Um, we gave up like

188
00:09:42,410 --> 00:09:44,809
Happy: 8 or 10, ten penalties. I think it was in

189
00:09:44,809 --> 00:09:48,330
Happy: the first half, 9 or 10. Um, and then managed

190
00:09:48,330 --> 00:09:52,270
Happy: to change that around and alter the way we played.

191
00:09:52,309 --> 00:09:54,710
Happy: Whether that was adjustments at half time or whether you

192
00:09:54,710 --> 00:09:58,069
Happy: look at how it was going through the game. Uh,

193
00:09:58,309 --> 00:10:01,030
Happy: so we actually adjusted to the referee and, and in

194
00:10:01,030 --> 00:10:04,110
Happy: the last 15 years, when have you been able to

195
00:10:04,150 --> 00:10:06,910
Happy: say that about an Australian team? Normally we would get

196
00:10:06,950 --> 00:10:08,990
Happy: on the wrong side of the ref, stay on the

197
00:10:08,990 --> 00:10:11,630
Happy: wrong side of the ref and get penalised off the

198
00:10:11,630 --> 00:10:15,070
Happy: park and bitch about it afterwards, which was fine because

199
00:10:15,070 --> 00:10:18,310
Happy: I was bitching about it during the game. But we

200
00:10:18,429 --> 00:10:20,390
Happy: we're now seem to have been able to get into

201
00:10:20,390 --> 00:10:23,710
Happy: a space where either the referees are giving us a

202
00:10:23,710 --> 00:10:28,030
Happy: bit more benefit, or we're actually changing our behaviour in

203
00:10:28,030 --> 00:10:32,309
Happy: a way that we're not just giving away silly penalties. Um,

204
00:10:32,630 --> 00:10:36,230
Happy: and we're, we're, we're, we're actually getting on terms with

205
00:10:36,230 --> 00:10:39,070
Happy: the referee. Whereas in the past that hasn't been the case.

206
00:10:39,110 --> 00:10:43,550
Happy: It's been a very combative experience for, for for them.

207
00:10:43,550 --> 00:10:46,230
Happy: And as a result, I think that's hurt us on occasion.

208
00:10:46,429 --> 00:10:49,730
Karl: Um, I actually think that a lot of this comes

209
00:10:49,730 --> 00:10:53,970
Karl: down to what Sally mentioned earlier about, um, bloody Harry

210
00:10:54,010 --> 00:10:58,569
Karl: Wilson stepping up as the captain. I think that the

211
00:10:58,570 --> 00:11:01,930
Karl: way he manages the team as a captain, compared to

212
00:11:01,929 --> 00:11:05,490
Karl: the way Hooper and other people managed in the past,

213
00:11:05,970 --> 00:11:09,330
Karl: is actually bringing that clarity and that working with the

214
00:11:09,330 --> 00:11:12,370
Karl: referee to get the guys back onside. And I think

215
00:11:12,650 --> 00:11:15,050
Karl: and I think that's probably been one of the best

216
00:11:15,050 --> 00:11:19,130
Karl: things that, um, Joe's brought to the team is actually

217
00:11:19,330 --> 00:11:22,050
Karl: getting them to actually come down that pathway.

218
00:11:22,650 --> 00:11:27,090
Happy: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because I think they ended up losing

219
00:11:27,090 --> 00:11:30,479
Happy: the penalty count like 1210, but they gave up 9

220
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:32,770
Happy: or 10 penalties in the first half. So they were

221
00:11:32,770 --> 00:11:36,250
Happy: pretty clean on the in the second half. So that

222
00:11:36,250 --> 00:11:41,170
Happy: kind of in-game adjustments really cool. Uh the two Argentinian

223
00:11:41,170 --> 00:11:44,770
Happy: first phase tries there. Honestly why you watch rugby? That

224
00:11:44,770 --> 00:11:46,710
Happy: sort of beautiful Awful execution.

225
00:11:46,750 --> 00:11:48,949
Karl: It was, wasn't it? It was just beautiful. It was.

226
00:11:48,950 --> 00:11:53,110
Karl: It was a absolutely beautiful. Um. Yeah. Beautiful. Try.

227
00:11:53,429 --> 00:11:56,590
Happy: Yeah, yeah. The, um. I was talking to someone who

228
00:11:56,590 --> 00:12:00,030
Happy: said he thought the Argentinians may have, uh, targeted Tom

229
00:12:00,030 --> 00:12:02,630
Happy: liner a bit in defence, because when they went down

230
00:12:02,630 --> 00:12:05,350
Happy: the short side, it was directly at liner. And when

231
00:12:05,390 --> 00:12:08,510
Happy: they the next one, they they Australians had moved line

232
00:12:08,510 --> 00:12:10,470
Happy: at the other side and they went down that side

233
00:12:10,750 --> 00:12:14,030
Happy: directly at him. So maybe they thought he might have been.

234
00:12:14,309 --> 00:12:16,589
Happy: I don't know, I'm just saying that maybe they thought

235
00:12:16,590 --> 00:12:19,390
Happy: he I would, may have been, he may have had

236
00:12:19,390 --> 00:12:22,550
Happy: an um, he may have been short of a run

237
00:12:22,550 --> 00:12:24,230
Happy: or short of a read or something like that.

238
00:12:24,270 --> 00:12:26,950
S8: I don't know. I don't don't get me wrong. I, I.

239
00:12:27,670 --> 00:12:31,830
Karl: I actually think they're probably 100% correct. If I was

240
00:12:31,830 --> 00:12:35,270
Karl: coaching a team and I was going to say, hey, guys,

241
00:12:35,590 --> 00:12:37,990
Karl: the smallest guy on the paddock, I want you to

242
00:12:38,030 --> 00:12:39,390
Karl: charge him with the ball.

243
00:12:39,870 --> 00:12:40,150
Happy: Mm.

244
00:12:40,190 --> 00:12:42,750
Karl: And if their forwards aren't looking after him. So you

245
00:12:42,790 --> 00:12:44,750
Karl: hurt him. That's on the forwards.

246
00:12:45,410 --> 00:12:49,330
Happy: No, I'm saying I'm saying in both of those first

247
00:12:49,330 --> 00:12:52,250
Happy: phase trials, that's where they went. Yeah. Chuck Burrows, when

248
00:12:52,250 --> 00:12:55,410
Happy: he ran that line that was directly at line art.

249
00:12:55,410 --> 00:12:59,290
Happy: And then when the second one, um, where they went

250
00:12:59,290 --> 00:13:02,930
Happy: open liner had moved to the other side. Yeah. And

251
00:13:03,050 --> 00:13:05,730
Happy: that was just a question of whether they whether they'd

252
00:13:05,730 --> 00:13:09,650
Happy: identified something in his play or identified something in the

253
00:13:09,650 --> 00:13:12,770
Happy: Australians play to that. I just think that that underlined

254
00:13:12,770 --> 00:13:16,050
Happy: that Kookaburras run was just you just got to stand

255
00:13:16,050 --> 00:13:18,170
Happy: back and you know. Well played sir. You know.

256
00:13:18,370 --> 00:13:21,250
Karl: Absolutely. Yeah. No it was very good play.

257
00:13:21,490 --> 00:13:24,929
Happy: Yeah. Cracking run. Um and that's what you that's what

258
00:13:24,929 --> 00:13:29,090
Happy: you love about it. Yep. Um, what did you think of, uh,

259
00:13:29,130 --> 00:13:30,970
Happy: we'll go to the the hometown boy. What did you

260
00:13:30,970 --> 00:13:32,370
Happy: think of the New Zealand game?

261
00:13:33,330 --> 00:13:33,770
S8: Um.

262
00:13:34,610 --> 00:13:38,929
Karl: I think, um, I obviously I was happy winning. Beating, beating.

263
00:13:39,210 --> 00:13:44,790
Karl: South Africa's always good. Um, I was, I was pretty

264
00:13:44,830 --> 00:13:47,990
Karl: happy with the way they played, actually. And and the

265
00:13:47,990 --> 00:13:51,270
Karl: injury that happened to narrow it early and then they

266
00:13:51,270 --> 00:13:54,030
Karl: brought on Dmac. But what I liked about it was

267
00:13:54,470 --> 00:13:58,310
Karl: Dmac stuck to his 15 role and let Bowden Barrett

268
00:13:58,309 --> 00:14:00,829
Karl: play at ten, and he didn't try and do that

269
00:14:00,830 --> 00:14:03,750
Karl: dual playmaker role, which he does so often, which I

270
00:14:03,750 --> 00:14:06,470
Karl: actually don't think he's very good at anyway. Um, I

271
00:14:06,470 --> 00:14:08,910
Karl: think he's a really good 15 because I think at

272
00:14:08,910 --> 00:14:12,350
Karl: 15 he can see the space developing and then he

273
00:14:12,350 --> 00:14:14,709
Karl: can play to that. But I think when he's jumps

274
00:14:14,710 --> 00:14:17,950
Karl: into that playmaker role at ten, I actually think he

275
00:14:17,990 --> 00:14:24,150
Karl: struggles to to get there. Um, I think with by

276
00:14:24,190 --> 00:14:27,150
Karl: going back to lock where he's a he's a much

277
00:14:27,150 --> 00:14:29,710
Karl: better lock. He's not a six. He's too slow. Um,

278
00:14:29,750 --> 00:14:32,790
Karl: I think the All Blacks are heading on the right path. Um,

279
00:14:32,830 --> 00:14:35,150
Karl: to be honest, I, I'm, I'm pretty happy with the

280
00:14:35,150 --> 00:14:38,270
Karl: way my, my biggest bitch with the All Blacks at

281
00:14:38,270 --> 00:14:41,310
Karl: the moment is that I think they still need to

282
00:14:41,350 --> 00:14:47,730
Karl: develop a ten teen because Beauden Barrett um d-mac. And

283
00:14:47,730 --> 00:14:51,490
Karl: if they bring Richie Mo'unga back, which they're talking about, um,

284
00:14:52,130 --> 00:14:53,610
Karl: they're not the people who are going to take the

285
00:14:53,610 --> 00:14:57,130
Karl: All Blacks forward. So they need to develop a new ten. Um,

286
00:14:57,170 --> 00:15:00,130
Karl: and I and I hope I see loves on the, um,

287
00:15:00,290 --> 00:15:02,730
Karl: on the bench this week. I know they see him

288
00:15:02,730 --> 00:15:04,850
Karl: as a 15, but I'd really love to see him

289
00:15:04,850 --> 00:15:07,210
Karl: get a game at ten. But yeah, no, I'm pretty happy.

290
00:15:07,210 --> 00:15:09,250
Karl: I think the All Blacks played quite well. I was

291
00:15:09,530 --> 00:15:11,370
Karl: pretty happy with it actually, to be honest.

292
00:15:11,890 --> 00:15:15,970
Happy: Mm. Very good. Mm. Sally your thoughts?

293
00:15:17,770 --> 00:15:20,450
Sully: Yeah. I was happy with the game. I enjoyed it

294
00:15:20,450 --> 00:15:25,850
Sully: a lot. Um, I think um, the, the big names

295
00:15:25,850 --> 00:15:29,570
Sully: for the, for the Springboks don't seem to be stepping

296
00:15:29,570 --> 00:15:32,210
Sully: up like they used to, like Malcolm Marx, Steph Totoy,

297
00:15:32,850 --> 00:15:36,650
Sully: Siya Kolisi. Their involvements don't seem to be what they

298
00:15:36,650 --> 00:15:37,330
Sully: used to be.

299
00:15:38,010 --> 00:15:42,070
Karl: Their old mate I. And look I think that's one

300
00:15:42,070 --> 00:15:44,390
Karl: of the problems the Springboks have got at the moment.

301
00:15:44,390 --> 00:15:47,750
Karl: They um you know, they've got they've got a lot

302
00:15:47,750 --> 00:15:49,750
Karl: of very good players who have been very good for

303
00:15:49,750 --> 00:15:53,430
Karl: a long time. But um, and I think when you

304
00:15:53,430 --> 00:15:57,550
Karl: look at the changes resumed for this weekend, um, I

305
00:15:57,550 --> 00:15:59,870
Karl: don't think he minds too much about the win or

306
00:15:59,870 --> 00:16:01,750
Karl: the loss, because I think he thinks that he's got

307
00:16:01,750 --> 00:16:04,350
Karl: enough credibility in the bank that even if he loses

308
00:16:04,350 --> 00:16:07,550
Karl: this weekend, he can keep moving forward. And he's sort

309
00:16:07,590 --> 00:16:10,310
Karl: of sitting there and saying, you know, if we win rugby,

310
00:16:10,310 --> 00:16:12,230
Karl: the next Rugby World Cup, no one's going to give

311
00:16:12,230 --> 00:16:14,870
Karl: a shit that we lost to New Zealand and Wellington.

312
00:16:14,870 --> 00:16:18,950
Karl: And he's quite right. They won't. So, um, I think

313
00:16:18,950 --> 00:16:22,630
Karl: he's absolutely looking to the future. And he's saying I

314
00:16:22,630 --> 00:16:24,870
Karl: need to bring in players that I can develop for

315
00:16:24,870 --> 00:16:28,150
Karl: the next Rugby World Cup and good on him. Yeah.

316
00:16:28,990 --> 00:16:32,750
Happy: Yeah. I mean, I only saw the highlights of the game. Uh,

317
00:16:32,790 --> 00:16:36,150
Happy: but from my perspective, I looked at it and what I,

318
00:16:36,190 --> 00:16:37,990
Happy: I had a bit of a look at the stats

319
00:16:37,990 --> 00:16:41,960
Happy: and uh, the, You know, seemed to be a pretty

320
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:46,480
Happy: slow old affair. Uh, 0 to 3 three. Second ruck

321
00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:50,840
Happy: speed was for both teams was under 45%. And um,

322
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:53,560
Happy: the other thing I did notice that, uh, I think

323
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:57,440
Happy: will make you a bit happier is they had 13

324
00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:03,160
Happy: entries to five against New Zealand. And, uh, on that basis,

325
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,400
Happy: they just didn't execute it potentially as well as they

326
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:10,040
Happy: could have. So that's you know, again you lose by

327
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:12,399
Happy: seven points. It's not it's always just going to be

328
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,240
Happy: a couple of little bits and bobs around the place.

329
00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:16,560
Happy: And you know they'll they'll I think they'll look at

330
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:18,000
Happy: it as something they can address.

331
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:21,600
Sully: I don't think entries is, is is a, a thing that,

332
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:24,520
Sully: that the Kiwi teams really care about.

333
00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:27,800
Karl: No, I think I think the Kiwis are happy to

334
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:30,280
Karl: say yeah cool. Come into our 22 we can defend that.

335
00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:33,040
Karl: We'll wait for your mistake and then we'll take it back.

336
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:38,600
Happy: Yeah yeah yeah. But the from that perspective, teams that

337
00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:42,060
Happy: have had success about about them have been teams that

338
00:17:42,060 --> 00:17:43,980
Happy: like the Irish a few years ago where they've been

339
00:17:43,980 --> 00:17:48,100
Happy: able to, uh, you know, create through short passing in

340
00:17:48,340 --> 00:17:51,260
Happy: gain line over that. So it's, um, it's a double

341
00:17:51,260 --> 00:17:55,900
Happy: edged sword. But if someone's coming into your 22, 13 times, uh, generally,

342
00:17:55,900 --> 00:17:59,619
Happy: that's not a good sign. You're under a lot of pressure. So, um.

343
00:18:00,980 --> 00:18:03,179
Karl: If they're only scoring once or twice out of that

344
00:18:03,180 --> 00:18:04,580
Karl: 13 times, who cares?

345
00:18:04,940 --> 00:18:07,899
Happy: Oh, yeah, I don't disagree. I don't disagree with that

346
00:18:07,900 --> 00:18:10,220
Happy: at all. But, uh, I just look at it as a,

347
00:18:10,580 --> 00:18:13,740
Happy: there's a few there's a few elements in there that, uh,

348
00:18:13,780 --> 00:18:17,180
Happy: I think, you know, you would look at and go, yeah,

349
00:18:17,180 --> 00:18:21,580
Happy: I think that's that's going to be fine. Um, it did, uh,

350
00:18:22,420 --> 00:18:25,300
Happy: you know, I can't really comment too much about, you know,

351
00:18:25,340 --> 00:18:27,420
Happy: any of the rest of it because I don't think

352
00:18:27,420 --> 00:18:30,179
Happy: you get the full spread of the game, watching the

353
00:18:30,580 --> 00:18:33,500
Happy: watching the highlight, even the 25 minute highlights, you know.

354
00:18:33,619 --> 00:18:36,140
Karl: No, no, you gotta you gotta watch the game a,

355
00:18:36,180 --> 00:18:37,220
Karl: you know. Yeah I.

356
00:18:37,220 --> 00:18:39,720
Happy: I particularly a test match. A test match you've got

357
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:41,399
Happy: to get. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

358
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:44,720
Karl: It was interesting actually, I, I, um, I, I was

359
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:47,639
Karl: out with my wife, so I missed the, um, missed

360
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:50,560
Karl: the Wallabies game and I, and I came back and

361
00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:53,720
Karl: I watched the 23 minute highlight or whatever that night

362
00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:56,119
Karl: and thought, yeah, that's pretty cool. But then on the

363
00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:58,280
Karl: Sunday I sat down and watched the whole test and

364
00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:01,280
Karl: I actually got a different perspective watching the whole test.

365
00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:04,440
Karl: So I'm with you, mate. What's the whole test? But

366
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:06,520
Karl: if you want to, if you want to see what

367
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:08,720
Karl: actually happened in the game, watch the whole test.

368
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:10,479
Happy: Yeah, I think I think.

369
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:11,040
Sully: From what.

370
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:11,639
Happy: Domestic.

371
00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:15,040
Sully: Test? I, I never thought that the All Blacks wouldn't win.

372
00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:16,399
Happy: Yeah.

373
00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:17,200
Sully: Yeah.

374
00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:22,480
Happy: So yeah I mean the, the, the try that was it.

375
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:27,199
Happy: Jordan scored off the lineout. Um you know that's just

376
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:31,480
Happy: classic all Black play of identifying a weakness within within

377
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:38,179
Happy: the um within the uh opposition. Yeah. Yeah. And working

378
00:19:38,220 --> 00:19:40,659
Happy: to it. I thought, uh, that's actually one of the

379
00:19:40,660 --> 00:19:43,380
Happy: things the Australians did in the second half in the

380
00:19:43,420 --> 00:19:46,940
Happy: Argentinian game when they went very, very narrow, like almost

381
00:19:46,940 --> 00:19:50,740
Happy: pick and drive they because they identified that the let's

382
00:19:50,740 --> 00:19:55,540
Happy: call him the sea defender, uh, for, for uh, the

383
00:19:55,540 --> 00:19:58,139
Happy: All Blacks was shooting up really super. He was the

384
00:19:58,140 --> 00:20:02,860
Happy: shooting defender. So they almost played inside him which caused that,

385
00:20:02,900 --> 00:20:05,420
Happy: which gave them that front foot ball which generated the

386
00:20:05,420 --> 00:20:08,140
Happy: offside play. So. Yeah.

387
00:20:08,460 --> 00:20:08,940
Sully: Yeah.

388
00:20:09,700 --> 00:20:13,899
Happy: Mm. Um, what about the Wallaroos game? What did you

389
00:20:13,900 --> 00:20:15,820
Happy: think of that that boys. Sally.

390
00:20:16,780 --> 00:20:20,979
Sully: Uh, I, I, I was really impressed, um, with the

391
00:20:20,980 --> 00:20:23,940
Sully: attitude of, of the Wallaroos. I, I think they came

392
00:20:23,980 --> 00:20:28,940
Sully: out and they said the, the most, the best thing

393
00:20:28,940 --> 00:20:33,940
Sully: we can do to guarantee ourselves a quarter final is win.

394
00:20:34,340 --> 00:20:37,480
Sully: And they I did their damnedest to play like that.

395
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:39,840
Sully: Like it wasn't even a thought of trying to defend

396
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:43,600
Sully: 70 something points, that they had to stop the English

397
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:46,800
Sully: from scoring. It was, let's just let's just give it

398
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:49,600
Sully: to these guys and and try and win this. And, um,

399
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:52,920
Sully: obviously it didn't come off because it ended up being 47,

400
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:56,440
Sully: 40 or something like that. But, um, no, I was

401
00:20:56,440 --> 00:21:02,320
Sully: really impressed, uh, with their first 25 minutes. Um, I

402
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:04,159
Sully: thought they did well. And all they need to do

403
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:08,080
Sully: is keep that 25 minutes. I know they.

404
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:08,920
Karl: Need to make it longer.

405
00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:10,320
Sully: Don't they need to make it longer?

406
00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:14,119
Karl: Yeah. We when you look at, um, when they played

407
00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:18,159
Karl: the the Black Ferns earlier in the year, half time. Great.

408
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:19,679
Karl: They were looking really good. It was only in the

409
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:22,840
Karl: second time, second half that it blew out. Um, I

410
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:26,919
Karl: think that Joe Yap has got the girls going really well. She,

411
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:31,480
Karl: she's developed them. She's she's increased their skill level. She's

412
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:36,340
Karl: developed that intensity. Um, um, and for me, for the Wallaroos.

413
00:21:36,380 --> 00:21:39,220
Karl: This is this is just the Rugby World Cup. A

414
00:21:39,220 --> 00:21:42,140
Karl: little bit early for them. Yeah. So. So what what

415
00:21:42,140 --> 00:21:45,020
Karl: Rugby Australia needs to do now is they need to

416
00:21:45,060 --> 00:21:47,660
Karl: take that development that's happened over the last 2 or

417
00:21:47,660 --> 00:21:50,500
Karl: 3 years and keep it going, so that in four

418
00:21:50,500 --> 00:21:53,700
Karl: years time when they host the Rugby World Cup over

419
00:21:53,700 --> 00:21:57,780
Karl: here and they've continued to develop, the girls will be

420
00:21:57,780 --> 00:22:00,659
Karl: able to take that intensity for longer and they'll be

421
00:22:00,660 --> 00:22:03,540
Karl: able to hold off longer and they'll be absolutely a

422
00:22:03,540 --> 00:22:07,300
Karl: real threat. I think they're playing exceptionally well. I think

423
00:22:07,340 --> 00:22:09,460
Karl: that the problem at the moment is they just lack

424
00:22:09,500 --> 00:22:13,260
Karl: the experience, and there's those little moments that happen when

425
00:22:13,260 --> 00:22:17,420
Karl: they get tired that their lack of experience is coming

426
00:22:17,420 --> 00:22:20,380
Karl: in and they're making those mistakes that they wouldn't make

427
00:22:20,420 --> 00:22:24,699
Karl: if they were more experienced. And if Rugby Australia keeps

428
00:22:24,700 --> 00:22:28,140
Karl: their development going, that's been going for the last two years.

429
00:22:28,500 --> 00:22:31,620
Karl: I think that the Wallaroos are going to be absolutely

430
00:22:31,619 --> 00:22:34,600
Karl: awesome at the next Rugby World Cup. I mean, getting

431
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:37,159
Karl: to the quarter finals in this cup has been fantastic.

432
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:40,879
Karl: You know, seven, eight months ago when we were watching

433
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,480
Karl: some of the games and people were saying, oh, they're

434
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:45,320
Karl: just going there to make the numbers up. You know,

435
00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:47,320
Karl: they're not going to do any good. They're just making

436
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:50,040
Karl: the numbers. It's not worth following. And now they're in

437
00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:52,680
Karl: the quarter finals. That's bloody awesome.

438
00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:53,560
Sully: Yeah.

439
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:54,080
Happy: Correct.

440
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:57,919
Sully: Yeah. The growth the growth in both our national teams

441
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:01,560
Sully: is like, you can you can just I mean, it's

442
00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:03,240
Sully: I don't know how to measure it, but you can

443
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:06,600
Sully: see it. Yeah. Yeah. It's it's wonderful to watch.

444
00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:12,040
Happy: Yeah. Absolutely. Yeah. Absolutely. Yeah. No. And look I, I

445
00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:15,600
Happy: think they'll probably get done by the Canadians in the quarterfinals.

446
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:18,400
Happy: And I think that still represents a passmark for them

447
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:20,280
Happy: because the other teams are good.

448
00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:23,280
Karl: Here's my prediction, mate. The Wallaroos are going to be

449
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:24,400
Karl: leading at half time.

450
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:27,520
Happy: There you go. Well let's hope you're right.

451
00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:30,480
Karl: The Wallaroos are going to be leading at half time.

452
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:32,500
Karl: But I don't think they're going to be able to

453
00:23:32,540 --> 00:23:35,100
Karl: keep the intensity up and Canada will come back. That's

454
00:23:35,100 --> 00:23:37,460
Karl: my prediction and I think they've got it in them

455
00:23:37,500 --> 00:23:38,899
Karl: absolutely to do that.

456
00:23:39,500 --> 00:23:41,580
Happy: Oh yeah. Absolutely. They have had.

457
00:23:42,020 --> 00:23:44,379
Sully: They do have trouble with Canada and Canada. I'm not

458
00:23:44,380 --> 00:23:46,140
Sully: saying that Canada's not a good side and it's just

459
00:23:46,140 --> 00:23:49,859
Sully: something from outside. They are a really good side. Canada. Yeah,

460
00:23:49,859 --> 00:23:52,620
Sully: but I'm not sure that we're there yet that we

461
00:23:52,619 --> 00:23:53,460
Sully: can take them.

462
00:23:53,980 --> 00:23:56,859
Karl: No I agree. I as I said, we're two, you know,

463
00:23:56,900 --> 00:23:59,820
Karl: 2 or 3 years away. Um, but but that's the

464
00:23:59,820 --> 00:24:03,540
Karl: experience and the, you know, the, the the way it's gone.

465
00:24:03,540 --> 00:24:07,140
Karl: And let's hope, let's hope Rugby Australia, you know, women's

466
00:24:07,140 --> 00:24:11,420
Karl: sport is the fastest growing sport in any sport in

467
00:24:11,420 --> 00:24:14,340
Karl: the world at the moment. Let's get on board team.

468
00:24:14,380 --> 00:24:16,260
Karl: Let's just get on board with us.

469
00:24:17,540 --> 00:24:23,300
Happy: Agree? Agree 100%. Um, okay, boys, I think that's enough.

470
00:24:23,300 --> 00:24:26,580
Happy: Looking backwards. Let's let's look forwards.

471
00:24:26,740 --> 00:24:27,540
Karl: Yes.

472
00:24:27,660 --> 00:24:33,880
Happy: This weekend. Oh. Um, well, we used to play Argentina, uh,

473
00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:38,840
Happy: sold out Allianz. Except for two seats. Because you're not going, mate. No.

474
00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:42,120
Karl: I I've someone came came up to me and they've

475
00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:43,120
Karl: got the ticket so.

476
00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:43,920
Happy: Oh very good.

477
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:45,040
Karl: It's going to be sold out.

478
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:48,000
Happy: You haven't, you haven't lost. Lost, haven't let the team down.

479
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:49,359
Karl: No, no, not at all.

480
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,679
Happy: Yes. Would it be almost worth going to Sydney? Uh, Sally,

481
00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:53,400
Happy: what do you reckon?

482
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,960
Sully: Yeah, as long as it's just a quick trip. In

483
00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:57,399
Sully: and out.

484
00:24:57,800 --> 00:24:58,359
Happy: Yeah.

485
00:24:58,680 --> 00:24:59,040
Sully: Yeah.

486
00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:03,520
Karl: Don't be so racist, man. You bloody Queensland racist. You're racist.

487
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:07,000
Happy: We're not. We're not racist, mate. We're just superior.

488
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:10,520
Sully: We're just. We're just two guys from the middle of

489
00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:15,760
Sully: nowhere who can't handle the number of people there. That's it.

490
00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:21,360
Happy: That's it. Just a couple of boys from the country. Um. Okay. Australian.

491
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:24,320
Karl: If you do ever come down to Sydney, just go

492
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:26,960
Karl: to the nearest budding, grab a cup of cement and

493
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:28,119
Karl: harden the fuck up, okay?

494
00:25:30,060 --> 00:25:31,899
Sully: I don't even want to drive there, to tell you

495
00:25:31,900 --> 00:25:32,260
Sully: the truth.

496
00:25:32,900 --> 00:25:34,980
Karl: Oh, don't get me wrong, I don't. I don't drive

497
00:25:34,980 --> 00:25:37,860
Karl: in Sydney unless I have to. I use public transport.

498
00:25:37,859 --> 00:25:40,300
Karl: The only time I drive in Sydney is when. When

499
00:25:40,300 --> 00:25:42,859
Karl: I'm refereeing and I'm driving to a rugby match because

500
00:25:42,859 --> 00:25:46,100
Karl: there's no public transport anywhere near a rugby ground. Other

501
00:25:46,100 --> 00:25:48,980
Karl: than that, if, if, if I don't have to, there's

502
00:25:49,020 --> 00:25:53,820
Karl: absolutely no way I drive because Sydney traffic is really.

503
00:25:53,900 --> 00:25:56,140
Happy: You can't you can't drive in the eastern suburbs of

504
00:25:56,140 --> 00:26:02,620
Happy: Sydney so. Well you can where the rugby's playing. Um, okay.

505
00:26:02,619 --> 00:26:06,740
Happy: Australian teams players. And Tina is, uh, loosehead. James Slipper,

506
00:26:06,740 --> 00:26:10,180
Happy: Billy Pollard and Taniela Tupou make up the front row. Uh,

507
00:26:10,220 --> 00:26:13,939
Happy: Jeremy Williams and Tom Hooper in for, uh, in the

508
00:26:13,940 --> 00:26:17,379
Happy: second row with Nick Frost getting a well-earned rest. I

509
00:26:17,380 --> 00:26:21,619
Happy: think he's played. He only missed 15 minutes of the

510
00:26:21,740 --> 00:26:27,420
Happy: championship so far. Uh, Valentini, Fraser Mcreight and Harry Wilson

511
00:26:27,580 --> 00:26:29,960
Happy: make up the balance of the front. The balance of

512
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:36,520
Happy: the pack. Uh, at the back. Three. Nick whites at nine. Uh,

513
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:39,680
Happy: tainted bad starts his second test at, uh, or third.

514
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:43,760
Happy: Test at, uh, flyhalf. Uh, quite a rise for him,

515
00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:46,840
Happy: considering he couldn't get a gig at the Tigers this year. Uh,

516
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:50,480
Happy: on the wings, uh, Corey Toole and Max Jorgensen. Hunter

517
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:57,000
Happy: Paisami gives Len Ikitau a rest at 12, Joseph Suaalii

518
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,959
Happy: is at 13 and Andrew Kellaway is at 15. Uh,

519
00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:04,280
Happy: the bench is made up of Josh Nasser, Angus Bell,

520
00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:10,639
Happy: Zain Lukhan Salakaia-loto, Carlo Tizzano, Tate McDermott, James O'Connor and

521
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:18,960
Happy: Filipo Daugunu. Uh, for the Argentinians, uh dropped out the

522
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:22,440
Happy: uh loosehead prop, but we've got Julian Montoya who is

523
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:27,890
Happy: just so good at uh hooker, uh, Joe Slavi at tighthead.

524
00:27:27,930 --> 00:27:35,730
Happy: Guido Petti. Uh, Pedro Rubio. Juan Gonzalez. Marcos Kremer and

525
00:27:35,930 --> 00:27:41,689
Happy: Joaquin Oviedo, uh, make up the pack. And, uh, Gonzalo

526
00:27:41,730 --> 00:27:48,050
Happy: Garcia at, uh nine. Santiago Carreras at ten, Mateo Carreras

527
00:27:48,050 --> 00:27:52,610
Happy: at 11. Santiago Chocobares. And he is some player at 12,

528
00:27:52,850 --> 00:28:00,410
Happy: Lucio Cinti at 13, uh, Rodrigo is at 14 and

529
00:28:00,530 --> 00:28:05,770
Happy: Juan Cruz Mallia at fullback. The bench is made up

530
00:28:05,770 --> 00:28:09,690
Happy: of Roos Ignacio, who's just there to hold up, stop

531
00:28:09,690 --> 00:28:13,770
Happy: the bench from getting away. I'd suggest with Montoya starting, uh,

532
00:28:14,369 --> 00:28:20,450
Happy: Boris Wenger, Correa makita. Uh, Franco Molina, Pablo Matera drops

533
00:28:20,450 --> 00:28:26,990
Happy: to the bench. Uh, Agustin Moyano, Fiat Picardo and Ignacio

534
00:28:27,030 --> 00:28:31,510
Happy: Mendy make up the 23. What do you think, Carl?

535
00:28:31,869 --> 00:28:33,189
Happy: It was a close game last week.

536
00:28:33,790 --> 00:28:35,310
Karl: Um, yeah, I think.

537
00:28:35,350 --> 00:28:36,790
Happy: What do you think of the teams first?

538
00:28:37,350 --> 00:28:42,750
Karl: Um. Yeah. Interesting teams. Um, I think, um, when I look,

539
00:28:42,790 --> 00:28:46,350
Karl: it's good to see slipper back. And hopefully he can, um,

540
00:28:47,270 --> 00:28:50,910
Karl: he can stand up. Um, hopefully. Tupo got his lesson

541
00:28:50,910 --> 00:28:54,510
Karl: from the, uh, from the Harry Wilson glare and doesn't

542
00:28:54,510 --> 00:28:56,630
Karl: act like a dickhead this week at the start, so

543
00:28:56,630 --> 00:29:00,670
Karl: that'll be nice. The centres are interesting, I think. Um,

544
00:29:02,310 --> 00:29:07,390
Karl: I think you could tell is is 60 to 70%

545
00:29:07,390 --> 00:29:11,150
Karl: of why Sewell has looked good. And it'll be interesting

546
00:29:11,190 --> 00:29:14,910
Karl: to see how Hunter Paisami takes that role and how

547
00:29:14,910 --> 00:29:19,230
Karl: those two click together. Um, which which will be which

548
00:29:19,230 --> 00:29:22,830
Karl: will be quite cool. Um, I like Andrew Kellaway as

549
00:29:22,830 --> 00:29:26,330
Karl: a 15. I think he's one of the cleverest, um,

550
00:29:26,370 --> 00:29:29,810
Karl: rugby players we actually have in Australia. He. He understands

551
00:29:29,810 --> 00:29:33,850
Karl: rugby and he, he makes really, really good decisions. Um,

552
00:29:33,890 --> 00:29:37,810
Karl: great to see L.s.l back in the game. And hopefully

553
00:29:37,810 --> 00:29:40,130
Karl: he gets a good run and good to see Digunai back,

554
00:29:40,130 --> 00:29:44,690
Karl: which is really cool. Um, Argentina. Really interesting that Matera

555
00:29:44,690 --> 00:29:48,890
Karl: is on the, on the bench. Um, I thought he

556
00:29:48,890 --> 00:29:53,850
Karl: was outstanding last week and, and I think that he

557
00:29:53,850 --> 00:29:56,850
Karl: was a lot of the reason that the Australian, the

558
00:29:56,850 --> 00:30:00,850
Karl: Australian forwards struggled a bit. So it'll be interesting how

559
00:30:00,850 --> 00:30:02,489
Karl: they go with him on the bench and when he

560
00:30:02,490 --> 00:30:06,330
Karl: comes on what impact he makes. Um, look, don't get

561
00:30:06,330 --> 00:30:09,330
Karl: me wrong, Australia can win this. If they get their

562
00:30:09,330 --> 00:30:13,130
Karl: crap together, they can win this. But I think the

563
00:30:13,610 --> 00:30:19,530
Karl: Argentinians almost need this. And whether they're going to step

564
00:30:19,530 --> 00:30:21,770
Karl: up that extra gear and take it is going to

565
00:30:21,770 --> 00:30:26,310
Karl: be interesting. Um, to me, both teams can win this,

566
00:30:26,310 --> 00:30:28,110
Karl: and it's going to come down to the bounce of

567
00:30:28,110 --> 00:30:30,670
Karl: the ball and a couple of decisions under pressure that'll

568
00:30:30,670 --> 00:30:31,550
Karl: make the difference.

569
00:30:32,430 --> 00:30:36,470
Happy: Yeah. If you look at the I think dropping material

570
00:30:36,470 --> 00:30:38,150
Happy: to the bench is maybe to give them a little

571
00:30:38,190 --> 00:30:40,110
Happy: bit more experience than starts at the back end of

572
00:30:40,110 --> 00:30:43,430
Happy: the game. Uh, looking at their bench, if you take

573
00:30:43,430 --> 00:30:46,150
Happy: out material, they've got 31 caps of experience on the

574
00:30:46,150 --> 00:30:51,790
Happy: bench and he's got 115. Yep. So maybe that's the

575
00:30:51,790 --> 00:30:54,670
Happy: thinking of the reason we didn't we it got away

576
00:30:54,670 --> 00:30:57,190
Happy: from us last week because we just didn't have somebody

577
00:30:57,190 --> 00:31:01,350
Happy: who was a yeah a solid, solid solid player.

578
00:31:01,390 --> 00:31:03,910
Karl: But the the problem with that is though, if Australia

579
00:31:03,950 --> 00:31:06,110
Karl: get too big of a lead then that won't matter.

580
00:31:06,590 --> 00:31:07,310
Happy: Oh yeah.

581
00:31:07,350 --> 00:31:10,310
Karl: Look there was a there was a comment. There was

582
00:31:10,310 --> 00:31:12,230
Karl: a comment I was reading on the rule the other

583
00:31:12,230 --> 00:31:16,110
Karl: day where someone was saying that, you know, the, the, um,

584
00:31:16,910 --> 00:31:19,550
Karl: the last quarter of the game is more important than

585
00:31:19,550 --> 00:31:22,250
Karl: the first quarter. And I said, well, not really. If

586
00:31:22,290 --> 00:31:24,490
Karl: you score 30 points in the first quarter, the last

587
00:31:24,490 --> 00:31:27,650
Karl: quarter doesn't matter at all. So, you know, I don't

588
00:31:27,650 --> 00:31:30,130
Karl: think that any part of the game is more important

589
00:31:30,130 --> 00:31:32,690
Karl: than any other part of the game. Um, but yeah,

590
00:31:32,690 --> 00:31:35,810
Karl: you're right. Bringing bringing Pablo Matera on at the end

591
00:31:35,810 --> 00:31:38,729
Karl: and having that experience, which they didn't have last week,

592
00:31:39,010 --> 00:31:40,570
Karl: it it might make a difference.

593
00:31:40,970 --> 00:31:44,610
Happy: Yeah. Well if they'd have put Oviedo Oviedo on the

594
00:31:44,610 --> 00:31:47,890
Happy: bench and started material eight again, they would have had

595
00:31:47,890 --> 00:31:51,770
Happy: a grand total of like 35, 40 caps on the bench. Yeah.

596
00:31:52,250 --> 00:31:54,370
Karl: And and that's a fair call. Yeah, absolutely.

597
00:31:54,450 --> 00:31:57,050
Happy: It is. It is an important component. It's part of why,

598
00:31:57,410 --> 00:32:00,610
Happy: you know, James O'Connor as a replacement. Ten is such

599
00:32:00,610 --> 00:32:03,130
Happy: a good, good option for Australia at the moment because

600
00:32:03,170 --> 00:32:07,490
Happy: he's he's certainly got the analytical component of his game down.

601
00:32:07,810 --> 00:32:10,330
Happy: Um what do you think Karl.

602
00:32:11,570 --> 00:32:12,210
Sully: No. Me.

603
00:32:12,850 --> 00:32:14,370
Happy: Yeah I'm sorry Sally.

604
00:32:14,850 --> 00:32:18,370
Sully: Um, yeah. I'm I'm I'm pretty happy with the side. I,

605
00:32:18,810 --> 00:32:23,550
Sully: I realize that people like, um, Frost and Cattell need

606
00:32:23,550 --> 00:32:27,510
Sully: to be rested at some stage, but I just, I

607
00:32:27,510 --> 00:32:29,550
Sully: just want them to play every game. I think Frost

608
00:32:29,590 --> 00:32:32,910
Sully: is is is amazing having a fantastic season. He could

609
00:32:32,910 --> 00:32:37,590
Sully: tell my God he's been good. And you know, I

610
00:32:37,590 --> 00:32:43,710
Sully: think but I think maybe possibly might have spent more

611
00:32:43,710 --> 00:32:48,550
Sully: time with Edmund. Um, in, in the uh, the other team.

612
00:32:48,550 --> 00:32:52,510
Sully: So maybe Hunter's there to to be a familiar face

613
00:32:52,910 --> 00:33:03,230
Sully: for Tun Tun. I wouldn't say tun. His nickname. Tain Edmund. Um, um, but, um, I,

614
00:33:03,430 --> 00:33:08,150
Sully: I like I really like how, um, Joe Schmidt is

615
00:33:08,670 --> 00:33:14,190
Sully: willing to give the young flyhalves a go starting games. Uh,

616
00:33:14,750 --> 00:33:17,670
Sully: we've got, uh, James O'Connor there to to guide them

617
00:33:17,670 --> 00:33:19,650
Sully: and talk to them at half time and stuff like that.

618
00:33:19,650 --> 00:33:23,850
Sully: But to me, uh, two years away from a World Cup,

619
00:33:23,850 --> 00:33:26,250
Sully: we've got to put minutes on the field into these

620
00:33:26,250 --> 00:33:30,570
Sully: young fly halves. And I know that Tom Edmund wouldn't

621
00:33:30,570 --> 00:33:36,210
Sully: have been there if Felicio and, um, Donaldson and Liner

622
00:33:36,450 --> 00:33:41,170
Sully: weren't all injured, but just to to say, okay, you're

623
00:33:41,210 --> 00:33:44,410
Sully: the guy you're playing this week and to put him

624
00:33:44,410 --> 00:33:48,250
Sully: in there, I think that's. Yeah. That's great. Um, and

625
00:33:48,250 --> 00:33:54,530
Sully: and I wish, um, we'd done it, you know, when, when, when, uh,

626
00:33:54,570 --> 00:33:57,530
Sully: Quade Cooper or or or one of those guys hadn't

627
00:33:57,530 --> 00:34:00,090
Sully: got into their 30s and we were we lost a

628
00:34:00,090 --> 00:34:02,850
Sully: whole generation of fly halves in Australia, sticking with the

629
00:34:02,850 --> 00:34:04,370
Sully: same guys week in, week out.

630
00:34:04,370 --> 00:34:07,890
Happy: So yeah. And look, yeah, I 100% agree with you.

631
00:34:07,890 --> 00:34:09,930
Happy: And I think, you know, if you objectively, if you

632
00:34:09,930 --> 00:34:14,250
Happy: look at it two, two years away, uh, O'Connor will

633
00:34:14,250 --> 00:34:16,729
Happy: be 37. He's not going to be your starting fly

634
00:34:16,730 --> 00:34:19,430
Happy: half in two years. He's not the answer. Uh, he

635
00:34:19,430 --> 00:34:22,190
Happy: might be the, you know, he might be able to

636
00:34:22,390 --> 00:34:24,950
Happy: handle 20 minutes off the bench, which would be really cool.

637
00:34:24,950 --> 00:34:27,430
Happy: But he's not going to be the answer in two

638
00:34:27,430 --> 00:34:28,270
Happy: years time, is he?

639
00:34:28,630 --> 00:34:29,110
Sully: No.

640
00:34:29,150 --> 00:34:31,710
Happy: As much. As much as I hate. Yeah.

641
00:34:31,989 --> 00:34:34,830
Sully: His attitude when he comes on the field, like he's calm,

642
00:34:35,190 --> 00:34:38,629
Sully: he's laughing, he's having a joke. And it just it

643
00:34:38,630 --> 00:34:42,549
Sully: just brings everyone, like, calms everyone down. And it's a

644
00:34:42,550 --> 00:34:51,190
Sully: great attitude. Uh, yeah. Like Carl, I love seeing, uh, lukhan. Salakaia-loto, uh, back. Um,

645
00:34:51,670 --> 00:34:59,150
Sully: I've been I've been happy with Dane, uh, like, maybe

646
00:34:59,150 --> 00:35:02,509
Sully: surviving a bit at tighthead, but. And good defensively. I

647
00:35:02,510 --> 00:35:05,870
Sully: just wish we could get some metres out of him

648
00:35:05,870 --> 00:35:10,750
Sully: with the ball in hand. But yeah, that that might come. Um, no.

649
00:35:10,790 --> 00:35:14,270
Sully: I'm reasonably happy with the team that we've got with the,

650
00:35:14,630 --> 00:35:18,890
Sully: with the injuries that we've got. Um, whether we can

651
00:35:18,890 --> 00:35:24,049
Sully: win this game. I mean, I'll be crossing everything I've got. Fingers, toes, eyes.

652
00:35:24,170 --> 00:35:25,690
Sully: Maybe not eyes. I'll be a bit hard to watch

653
00:35:25,690 --> 00:35:30,210
Sully: the rugby with my eyes crossed. Um, yeah. Um, but

654
00:35:30,210 --> 00:35:35,450
Sully: I know now that these guys know what the system is,

655
00:35:35,770 --> 00:35:38,810
Sully: know what their role is, and they're going to they're

656
00:35:38,810 --> 00:35:40,450
Sully: going to gel as a team and they're going to

657
00:35:40,450 --> 00:35:42,529
Sully: do the best they can. And that's that's all we

658
00:35:42,530 --> 00:35:44,690
Sully: can really ask of them. Yeah.

659
00:35:44,969 --> 00:35:48,410
Happy: Um, yeah. Yeah. I mean, I'll take Australia by, you know,

660
00:35:48,450 --> 00:35:51,969
Happy: 5 to 7 points, much like last week. But uh,

661
00:35:52,810 --> 00:35:58,730
Happy: the I think the most impressive thing since, uh, the loss,

662
00:35:58,770 --> 00:36:01,450
Happy: the loss in the second test to Lions is that

663
00:36:01,450 --> 00:36:03,850
Happy: seems to have set the new benchmark as to the

664
00:36:03,850 --> 00:36:06,810
Happy: level that's acceptable to play at. And I can honestly

665
00:36:06,810 --> 00:36:11,290
Happy: say in the last since that game, they haven't played

666
00:36:11,290 --> 00:36:16,270
Happy: any worse than that. Like they've they've their levels, their

667
00:36:16,270 --> 00:36:18,910
Happy: base levels higher, which means they're in games for longer.

668
00:36:19,310 --> 00:36:22,029
Sully: Um, I just love that. Like, players have come in,

669
00:36:22,030 --> 00:36:25,750
Sully: like we've lost wingers, we've lost flyers, we've lost others

670
00:36:26,510 --> 00:36:27,790
Sully: for you know.

671
00:36:27,830 --> 00:36:28,190
Happy: Mhm.

672
00:36:28,469 --> 00:36:31,670
Sully: Elon is a massive loss. But people have stepped up

673
00:36:32,310 --> 00:36:35,230
Sully: and I really love that, that, that, that we can

674
00:36:35,230 --> 00:36:38,069
Sully: do that. And people have come in and realised that

675
00:36:38,070 --> 00:36:41,190
Sully: this is the standard, this is what I have to do.

676
00:36:41,750 --> 00:36:45,549
Sully: And uh yeah I'm really impressed.

677
00:36:46,070 --> 00:36:49,189
Happy: Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. I mean, at the start of the year,

678
00:36:49,190 --> 00:36:51,430
Happy: you wouldn't have taken odds on Jeremy Williams and Tom

679
00:36:51,430 --> 00:36:54,550
Happy: Hooper being in the second row and being happy with it.

680
00:36:55,510 --> 00:36:59,030
Karl: I'm I'm still not 100% happy with that, I don't

681
00:36:59,030 --> 00:37:04,270
Karl: think um, I don't think Hooper. I think Hooper's better

682
00:37:04,270 --> 00:37:05,870
Karl: as a loose forward than he is as a lock,

683
00:37:05,910 --> 00:37:10,230
Karl: to be honest. I, I, I actually, to be honest,

684
00:37:10,230 --> 00:37:14,029
Karl: I still think that if I was picking locks for Australia,

685
00:37:14,030 --> 00:37:17,080
Karl: I would go to the four slots because I think

686
00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:20,279
Karl: the sum of those two is better than the sum

687
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:24,120
Karl: of two others, even though individually the others might be better.

688
00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:28,120
Karl: But Swain and Williams were so good for the force,

689
00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:31,960
Karl: they just understood each other. They played so well, they

690
00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:36,600
Karl: knew what was going on. Um, and I, I, I

691
00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:38,879
Karl: don't think Hooper had a very good game last week,

692
00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:41,440
Karl: to be honest. I just don't think he's a lock.

693
00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:45,680
Karl: And I think that putting him at lock makes our

694
00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:49,680
Karl: pack less of a physical threat than what it does

695
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:52,920
Karl: when he's as loose forward and we've got someone else's lock.

696
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:56,640
Happy: Yeah, I think that's fair. I don't think, Hooper. I

697
00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:59,400
Happy: don't think that Hooper Williams is a locking partnership against

698
00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:02,600
Happy: the South Africans. No, no, they represent a different challenge.

699
00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:05,440
Karl: I don't think you'll see it against the All Blacks either, mate.

700
00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:10,480
Happy: Potentially. Potentially. Although word seems to be around that Skilton

701
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:13,980
Happy: won't be back, so. But yeah. know, and I think

702
00:38:13,980 --> 00:38:16,420
Happy: that's why they're giving Frost the rest. Yeah. You know,

703
00:38:16,460 --> 00:38:18,660
Happy: they can they take the risk out of it. They say, okay,

704
00:38:18,660 --> 00:38:21,100
Happy: we're going to have frost for the All Blacks because

705
00:38:21,420 --> 00:38:23,620
Happy: he can't get injured against the Argentinians because he's not

706
00:38:23,620 --> 00:38:25,900
Happy: going to play. Yeah. And we and we think we

707
00:38:25,900 --> 00:38:28,819
Happy: can handle our business. And it will be an it

708
00:38:28,820 --> 00:38:32,540
Happy: will be it'll be a bit of a watershed moment.

709
00:38:32,540 --> 00:38:34,899
Happy: Can they can they pick a team that can just

710
00:38:34,900 --> 00:38:38,900
Happy: handle the business against somebody else for with an eye

711
00:38:38,940 --> 00:38:43,779
Happy: to a bigger opposition in the future? Um, I hope

712
00:38:43,780 --> 00:38:44,300
Happy: they can.

713
00:38:44,300 --> 00:38:47,540

728
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:47,839
Karl: soon as it's Wallabies against All Blacks, I'm going to

729
00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:49,560
Karl: switch my head around and you guys are all going

730
00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:50,799
Karl: to hate me. But that's just the way.

731
00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:51,480
Happy: That's okay.

732
00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:54,000
Sully: I was just having a chuckle at all the ways

733
00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:56,920
Sully: you were chucking out the Wallabies a second ago. I

734
00:39:56,920 --> 00:39:59,000
Sully: think two weeks time. We're not going to hear any wheeze.

735
00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:03,680
Happy: Well, you're about to hear a few more wheeze now

736
00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:07,160
Happy: because this. Let's get into the next game. Uh, All

Happy: van der Merwe, Jan Hendrik Vessels, Wilco Louw, RG Snyman,

753
00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:42,840
Happy: me why your All Blacks are going to win, Carl. Um,

754
00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:45,240
Happy: and you can't just go, oh, because we're in New Zealand,

755
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:46,680
Happy: you've got to provide an answer.

756
00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:54,040
Karl: I think, um, I think I think the South Africans

757
00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:57,000
Karl: are going to lack a little bit of cohesion in

758
00:41:57,000 --> 00:41:59,279
Karl: this game because they've made so many changes, and I

759
00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:02,440
Karl: think that's going to hurt them. Um, I think some

760
00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:05,000
Karl: of the changes they've made are actually quite good. Some

761
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:08,940
Karl: of the players they've brought in, um, and their two centers,

762
00:42:08,940 --> 00:42:14,260
Karl: for example. I think they're actually faster and quicker than

763
00:42:14,260 --> 00:42:17,739
Karl: the guys they replace, but I think they lack that cohesion,

764
00:42:17,739 --> 00:42:20,700
Karl: and I think that that might cost them. Um, I'm

765
00:42:20,700 --> 00:42:25,339
Karl: actually really happy with the New Zealand team. I think that, um,

766
00:42:25,660 --> 00:42:29,739
Karl: we've now got six front row, six props who could

767
00:42:29,739 --> 00:42:33,020
Karl: all step up and start. I think we've got, um,

768
00:42:33,940 --> 00:42:38,620
Karl: we've got probably four locks. Any fool could start and,

769
00:42:38,620 --> 00:42:40,700
Karl: and I think that even even with our loose forwards,

770
00:42:40,700 --> 00:42:44,180
Karl: I think we're finally starting to settle on the loose

771
00:42:44,180 --> 00:42:49,899
Karl: forwards that are actually are actually complementing the game that that, uh,

772
00:42:49,940 --> 00:42:53,779
Karl: razor wants to play. So, um, I think I think

773
00:42:53,780 --> 00:42:57,379
Karl: New Zealand will win. Um, I, I think that the

774
00:42:57,380 --> 00:43:01,020
Karl: Australians have got the ability. I'm sorry. The, the, um,

775
00:43:01,180 --> 00:43:05,299
Karl: Boks have got the ability to just bring something out

776
00:43:05,300 --> 00:43:07,439
Karl: of the pot that will threaten them. But I don't

777
00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:09,520
Karl: think they're going to have the cohesion to see it

778
00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:14,280
Karl: through for the 80 minutes. Too many changes too quickly

779
00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:14,760
Karl: for me.

780
00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:18,800
Happy: Karl thoughts whether it's actually going to be fair in

781
00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:20,279
Happy: Wellington on the weekend.

782
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:24,080
Karl: Well yeah, it's Wellington. So you know that just means

783
00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:25,480
Karl: it's not horizontal.

784
00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:31,080
Happy: Yeah. Well it's is what is it. Saturday. It's like

785
00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:35,640
Happy: cloudy with a chance of, uh, extreme, uh, extreme weather,

786
00:43:35,640 --> 00:43:36,240
Happy: I guess.

787
00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:39,759
Karl: Yeah. That means so that means that. Yeah. You got to.

788
00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:40,200
Happy: Remember.

789
00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:43,760
Karl: What you call extreme weather over here in New Zealand.

790
00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:47,360
Karl: They say. Yeah, it's not even there. So, yeah.

791
00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:53,200
Sully: Um, I think, uh, Malcolm Marx is is is bloody

792
00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:57,520
Sully: lucky to keep his spot in that side. Uh, Cobus Rinehart, uh,

793
00:43:57,520 --> 00:44:01,640
Sully: I think they've gone. He's a he's a grumpy little, uh, halfback.

794
00:44:01,640 --> 00:44:03,960
Sully: And I think, uh, they, they've gone for a bit

795
00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:08,540
Sully: more aggro there, I think, uh, I'm not as confident

796
00:44:08,540 --> 00:44:11,100
Sully: about the Senate pairing as Carl is. I think there

797
00:44:11,100 --> 00:44:13,060
Sully: was nothing wrong. I think it was one of their

798
00:44:13,060 --> 00:44:17,300
Sully: strong points that the, um, the last weeks, uh, Senate

799
00:44:17,300 --> 00:44:21,020
Sully: pairing and and I'm not sure why they, um, well,

800
00:44:21,020 --> 00:44:25,819
Sully: they got changed. Um, but, um, who played fullback last week?

801
00:44:25,820 --> 00:44:26,580
Sully: The old fella.

802
00:44:27,180 --> 00:44:31,140
Happy: Yeah. No, he, um. Willie le Roux.

803
00:44:31,580 --> 00:44:34,140
Sully: Willie le Roux. Yeah. So. And, um, I think that's

804
00:44:34,140 --> 00:44:37,620
Sully: a good change. Uh, fussy at fullback is. He's a

805
00:44:37,620 --> 00:44:41,900
Sully: bloody exciting player. So, uh, we'll see how that goes. But, yeah,

806
00:44:41,940 --> 00:44:46,340
Sully: I don't think. I don't think this is as strong

807
00:44:46,380 --> 00:44:48,940
Sully: a all black Springbok team as it was last week.

808
00:44:48,980 --> 00:44:51,620
Sully: I'm with Karl with the All Blacks. Um, that's looking

809
00:44:51,620 --> 00:44:54,660
Sully: like a bloody good side. Uh, they seem to be

810
00:44:54,660 --> 00:44:57,819
Sully: settling on a back row. They just gotta find a

811
00:44:57,860 --> 00:45:02,819
Sully: permanent guy at six. Um, and Simon Parker might be

812
00:45:02,820 --> 00:45:04,500
Sully: the guy for that. You never know, but, um.

813
00:45:04,500 --> 00:45:06,439
Karl: Yeah, well, if he, if if he keeps playing like

814
00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:08,239
Karl: he did last week, I think he will be the

815
00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:11,000
Karl: guy at it. Um, they tried VI, but he was.

816
00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:13,760
Karl: He's a lock, and he's a really, really good lock. And,

817
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:17,320
Karl: you know, there's one of the things that annoys me.

818
00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:20,080
Karl: And I see a lot of coaches doing it. You know,

819
00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:24,120
Karl: we want players who can play in multiple positions. I

820
00:45:24,160 --> 00:45:27,960
Karl: personally don't agree with that. I think that almost every

821
00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:31,920
Karl: position in a in a rugby field is specialist. You know,

822
00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:34,360
Karl: you had a guy like Ben Smith who could play

823
00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:38,399
Karl: equally at wing or fullback, and now everyone says, oh, well, look,

824
00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:40,799
Karl: he can do it so everyone can do it. But

825
00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:43,520
Karl: actually they can't, you know, um, you got a guy

826
00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:46,719
Karl: like Callaway. Callaway. Callaway to me is a really good

827
00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:48,680
Karl: fullback who can play wing, but he's not as good

828
00:45:48,680 --> 00:45:50,160
Karl: a winger as he is a fullback.

829
00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:52,319
Sully: No, I don't think he has the out and out

830
00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:52,920
Sully: pace to be.

831
00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:57,040
Karl: Yeah. And and and I, I actually think that um,

832
00:45:57,520 --> 00:46:01,360
Karl: the idea you know even things like Dmac playing 15

833
00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:04,940
Karl: or 10 personally I think he's a very good 15,

834
00:46:04,940 --> 00:46:08,380
Karl: but I think he really struggles at ten. So I'm

835
00:46:08,380 --> 00:46:13,700
Karl: I'm not a fan of players that swap between these positions.

836
00:46:13,700 --> 00:46:16,900
Karl: I think that I would rather have the specialist best

837
00:46:16,900 --> 00:46:19,900
Karl: player in that position, and I think we're starting to

838
00:46:19,940 --> 00:46:22,140
Karl: go down that path a lot more, which is good.

839
00:46:22,580 --> 00:46:23,020
Sully: Yeah.

840
00:46:23,820 --> 00:46:28,180
Happy: Yeah. Look, I think, um, I think the back three

841
00:46:28,180 --> 00:46:32,939
Happy: is pretty interchangeable. Um, 11 1415 you can sort of,

842
00:46:33,340 --> 00:46:36,739
Happy: you know, be be a bit, be a bit like

843
00:46:36,739 --> 00:46:39,980
Happy: that and maybe, you know, really good six sevens and

844
00:46:39,980 --> 00:46:42,819
Happy: eights can move, move between them. But you've got to

845
00:46:42,820 --> 00:46:46,140
Happy: be at the severe level to do that, you know.

846
00:46:46,780 --> 00:46:48,580
Happy: And he just happens to be very good at rugby.

847
00:46:48,700 --> 00:46:52,300
Sully: Who's at the Ardie Savea level besides. Yeah.

848
00:46:52,420 --> 00:46:52,940
Karl: Besides.

849
00:46:53,860 --> 00:46:54,260
Happy: Yeah.

850
00:46:55,660 --> 00:46:58,020
Karl: Yeah he's a machine isn't he.

851
00:46:58,260 --> 00:47:02,100
Happy: Yeah yeah yeah. Look um, you know, I would argue

852
00:47:02,140 --> 00:47:05,080
Happy: like a Bobby Valentini can play six, 6 or 8,

853
00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:08,160
Happy: but he can't play seven. So there's just, you know,

854
00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:10,399
Happy: there's only one of him to be. He's one of one,

855
00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:11,040
Happy: to be fair.

856
00:47:11,320 --> 00:47:13,520
Karl: And to be fair to that, a lot of this

857
00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:16,919
Karl: comes down to how the coach wants those players to play. Yeah.

858
00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:19,759
Karl: You know, um, if if you want to play a

859
00:47:19,760 --> 00:47:23,560
Karl: number eight like Kieran Read, then Valentini wouldn't be able

860
00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:26,359
Karl: to do it. Yeah. Whereas a six. So a lot

861
00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:29,719
Karl: of it comes down to how you want them to play. Yeah. Um, I, I,

862
00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:34,360
Karl: I think that I, I, I even think there's a

863
00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:38,840
Karl: big difference between 14 and 11 and four and five.

864
00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:41,759
Karl: I think they all have differences in the game where

865
00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:43,759
Karl: if you get an expert in it, they're going to

866
00:47:43,760 --> 00:47:47,840
Karl: be better than trying to have someone cover both. Yeah.

867
00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:52,279
Happy: Yeah. You're you're a tighthead lock man. Yeah yeah yeah.

868
00:47:52,320 --> 00:47:54,920
Happy: And I, I don't disagree with you in that respect.

869
00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:58,200
Happy: There's there's elements to some of the positions where they

870
00:47:58,200 --> 00:47:59,440
Happy: just don't translate.

871
00:47:59,440 --> 00:48:00,760
Karl: Yeah absolutely.

872
00:48:01,050 --> 00:48:01,730
Happy: They just don't.

873
00:48:01,969 --> 00:48:05,850
Sully: Look at, uh, the Tom Hooper as an example. So

874
00:48:06,210 --> 00:48:09,730
Sully: people say he's a five, six, seven, eight, and, uh.

875
00:48:10,370 --> 00:48:11,410
Karl: I don't see that.

876
00:48:11,930 --> 00:48:14,009
Sully: Mm. No, but people say it, so.

877
00:48:14,050 --> 00:48:14,490
Happy: Yeah.

878
00:48:14,730 --> 00:48:17,089
Sully: Um, and I don't I don't agree with it. I

879
00:48:17,090 --> 00:48:19,970
Sully: have seen him play seven, but not for a while.

880
00:48:19,969 --> 00:48:23,450
Sully: And he wasn't 123 kilos or something. I think he

881
00:48:23,450 --> 00:48:27,930
Sully: claims he when he did it. So. Yeah. Yeah.

882
00:48:28,290 --> 00:48:31,450
Happy: Yeah. And look, I, I think, um, you know, he,

883
00:48:31,489 --> 00:48:36,250
Happy: he's a, he's a very good six. Um, and sometimes

884
00:48:36,570 --> 00:48:38,210
Happy: you get, you sort of get a bit in love

885
00:48:38,210 --> 00:48:41,969
Happy: with it, uh, in love with a player like that, uh, going. Oh,

886
00:48:41,969 --> 00:48:45,730
Happy: he can, because he can do some of those other things.

887
00:48:45,730 --> 00:48:47,569
Happy: You sort of go, okay, well, I just want him

888
00:48:47,570 --> 00:48:49,610
Happy: on the field rather than.

889
00:48:49,650 --> 00:48:53,489
Sully: I'd rather. I'd rather he was A46 instead of A56.

890
00:48:54,170 --> 00:48:54,610
Happy: Mhm.

891
00:48:54,810 --> 00:48:56,129
Sully: If you're going to put him in the second row

892
00:48:56,170 --> 00:48:58,810
Sully: I don't think I'd, I, I'd rather have him at

893
00:48:58,850 --> 00:49:02,310
Sully: loosehead lock headlock, then tight headlock, but that's. That seems

894
00:49:02,310 --> 00:49:04,310
Sully: to be where he's going. So. Yes.

895
00:49:04,550 --> 00:49:07,550
Happy: Yes. Well, we're disappearing down some rabbit holes.

896
00:49:08,350 --> 00:49:12,469
Sully: So I'm going down to, um, two technical paths.

897
00:49:12,989 --> 00:49:19,189
Happy: Yes, indeed. Technical indeed. Um, what? What do you think

898
00:49:19,190 --> 00:49:21,070
Happy: the result of? This one's going to be, my friend.

899
00:49:23,070 --> 00:49:29,669
Sully: Um, I think, um, Bodie Barrett, um, on his old

900
00:49:29,670 --> 00:49:32,270
Sully: home ground. Uh, I've seen him play some wonderful games

901
00:49:32,270 --> 00:49:34,630
Sully: in Wellington. So, uh, I'm going to go with the

902
00:49:34,630 --> 00:49:38,550
Sully: All Blacks. Um, you know, part of me and I

903
00:49:39,030 --> 00:49:42,710
Sully: really don't back the All Blacks because Aussie Kiwi thing.

904
00:49:42,710 --> 00:49:45,750
Sully: But part of me would love the, um, part of

905
00:49:45,750 --> 00:49:48,230
Sully: me would love the box to get up and, uh,

906
00:49:48,230 --> 00:49:50,870
Sully: Australia to win and go into the go into the,

907
00:49:50,870 --> 00:49:53,870
Sully: the um, the two matches against New Zealand with, with

908
00:49:53,870 --> 00:49:56,510
Sully: a lead in the points that would, that would just

909
00:49:56,510 --> 00:49:59,290
Sully: make me chuffed. But uh, no, I want the Kiwis

910
00:49:59,290 --> 00:50:04,009
Sully: to win. So. So are Kiwis by about the same

911
00:50:04,010 --> 00:50:05,930
Sully: I think about seven. Let's see.

912
00:50:06,850 --> 00:50:08,570
Karl: Now. Kiwis by 13.

913
00:50:09,090 --> 00:50:09,530
Sully: Yeah.

914
00:50:10,090 --> 00:50:14,450
Happy: Yeah I think um I think it's going to be close,

915
00:50:14,450 --> 00:50:16,969
Happy: but I think there's only one team that can win

916
00:50:16,969 --> 00:50:19,690
Happy: it by 13, which is New Zealand. I don't think

917
00:50:19,770 --> 00:50:24,649
Happy: uh I don't, I don't see the Safa as being

918
00:50:24,650 --> 00:50:26,489
Happy: the kind of team that can blow another team off

919
00:50:26,489 --> 00:50:29,129
Happy: the park at the moment. They just seem to be

920
00:50:29,650 --> 00:50:30,250
Happy: a little, um.

921
00:50:31,290 --> 00:50:34,090
Sully: Yeah, do it in the scrum. But, uh, they line

922
00:50:34,090 --> 00:50:38,410
Sully: it is not dominant. And, um, I don't think they're,

923
00:50:38,450 --> 00:50:40,890
Sully: they're playing to lose is dominant at the moment. So.

924
00:50:41,450 --> 00:50:46,609
Happy: Yeah. Yeah. So look I um yeah I, I will

925
00:50:46,610 --> 00:50:50,890
Happy: pick New Zealand by not very much. I think it'll, it'll,

926
00:50:50,890 --> 00:50:53,450
Happy: it'll just be that kind of close grind out game

927
00:50:53,450 --> 00:50:58,190
Happy: again that uh Nick I'm really is the is the

928
00:50:58,190 --> 00:51:01,070
Happy: ref this weekend. And he he showed in the um

929
00:51:01,350 --> 00:51:03,830
Happy: in the line when he refereed the lines that he's

930
00:51:03,830 --> 00:51:06,069
Happy: probably in the top 4 or 5 referees in the

931
00:51:06,070 --> 00:51:09,469
Happy: world at the moment. Uh, so he seems to like

932
00:51:09,469 --> 00:51:13,950
Happy: a nice, clean, relatively quick game, which, uh, I don't

933
00:51:13,950 --> 00:51:18,589
Happy: think suits the South Africans. Uh, so I'm going to

934
00:51:18,590 --> 00:51:24,109
Happy: take New Zealand in this one. Uh, just thought we

935
00:51:24,110 --> 00:51:27,270
Happy: might scoot on and touch on a couple of other, uh,

936
00:51:27,310 --> 00:51:31,470
Happy: bits and pieces going on. Obviously, the Wallaroos are taking on, uh,

937
00:51:31,550 --> 00:51:37,350
Happy: Canadian women over the weekend in the quarterfinals. Um, after

938
00:51:37,350 --> 00:51:41,270
Happy: a brave showing against against England. Do you. What do

939
00:51:41,270 --> 00:51:44,509
Happy: you think, Brent? Um, Carl, do you think they got

940
00:51:44,510 --> 00:51:44,910
Happy: a shot?

941
00:51:45,350 --> 00:51:45,910
Karl: Um.

942
00:51:46,310 --> 00:51:48,710
Happy: Puncher's chance, or is it just going to be a

943
00:51:48,710 --> 00:51:49,870
Happy: bridge too far? You think?

944
00:51:50,750 --> 00:51:53,470
Karl: Okay, I said it earlier, so my my pick is

945
00:51:53,469 --> 00:51:56,190
Karl: that the Wallaroos are going to be ahead at at

946
00:51:56,290 --> 00:51:59,490
Karl: half time. Yeah, but they're not going to be able

947
00:51:59,489 --> 00:52:02,009
Karl: to sustain it for the whole match. And Canadians will

948
00:52:02,010 --> 00:52:04,529
Karl: come through at the end. I think I think the

949
00:52:04,570 --> 00:52:10,210
Karl: wallaby the the Wallaroos lack the experience to be able

950
00:52:10,210 --> 00:52:14,089
Karl: to sustain what they do for that, like they did

951
00:52:14,090 --> 00:52:17,730
Karl: for the first 25 minutes against, um, the against the,

952
00:52:17,730 --> 00:52:21,370
Karl: the English team. I think they just lack the experience

953
00:52:21,370 --> 00:52:24,050
Karl: to know how to sustain that for the whole match

954
00:52:24,050 --> 00:52:27,890
Karl: at the moment. So, so to me, um, they've got

955
00:52:27,890 --> 00:52:31,489
Karl: some incredible players who are playing really, really good rugby

956
00:52:31,850 --> 00:52:33,730
Karl: and I think that they're going to be ahead at

957
00:52:33,730 --> 00:52:36,770
Karl: half time, but they won't be able to sustain it.

958
00:52:36,770 --> 00:52:38,010
Karl: That's what mine is.

959
00:52:38,650 --> 00:52:40,090
Happy: Yeah. Sorry.

960
00:52:41,050 --> 00:52:44,410
Sully: Yeah I agree with Carl. I think, um, while the

961
00:52:44,450 --> 00:52:48,489
Sully: Wallaroos are a better team than the last time they played, uh, Canada,

962
00:52:48,530 --> 00:52:53,890
Sully: I don't think they've developed enough. Um, felt enough to

963
00:52:53,930 --> 00:52:59,509
Sully: take the wind. The wind. But you know, there always

964
00:52:59,510 --> 00:53:01,310
Sully: a chance there in the game, there on the field.

965
00:53:01,310 --> 00:53:05,230
Sully: They can win. And I hope they just go for it. Um, no.

966
00:53:05,230 --> 00:53:08,110
Sully: No hesitation. Just go for it. Um, I gotta say,

967
00:53:08,110 --> 00:53:09,989
Sully: I gotta learn her name. I love the I love

968
00:53:09,989 --> 00:53:13,549
Sully: the halfback for the Wallaroos. I think she's fantastic. But yeah,

969
00:53:13,550 --> 00:53:16,470
Sully: I haven't I haven't taken bothered to learn her name

970
00:53:16,469 --> 00:53:21,549
Sully: quite yet, which is pretty, pretty rude of me, but. Yeah. Um. Yeah,

971
00:53:21,590 --> 00:53:24,910
Sully: I think this will be our last game, unfortunately. But

972
00:53:24,950 --> 00:53:27,230
Sully: I'm ready for it. I'm ready for them to win.

973
00:53:27,230 --> 00:53:30,630
Sully: So come on, the Wallaroos. I'm keen as hell.

974
00:53:31,230 --> 00:53:33,509
Happy: Yeah. You know, I, um, I'd love to see them

975
00:53:33,510 --> 00:53:36,670
Happy: get up by, um, I do, I do like the

976
00:53:36,670 --> 00:53:40,069
Happy: way the Canadian treat their women's rugby. They very much

977
00:53:40,070 --> 00:53:44,430
Happy: treated on an equal footing. Uh, but obviously, you know,

978
00:53:44,469 --> 00:53:47,550
Happy: I want I want the Australians to get up. Um,

979
00:53:48,430 --> 00:53:50,550
Happy: but that's my heart. My head tells me. I think

980
00:53:50,590 --> 00:53:54,370
Happy: this is this is where they'll get to. And, uh, frankly,

981
00:53:54,890 --> 00:53:56,770
Happy: if you'd asked me at the start of the tournament,

982
00:53:56,770 --> 00:53:59,649
Happy: would quarterfinal be acceptable? I think it would have been.

983
00:53:59,650 --> 00:54:03,129
Happy: Getting out of that pool was tough. Um, and yeah,

984
00:54:03,170 --> 00:54:05,810
Happy: they got out of that pool in in the end,

985
00:54:05,850 --> 00:54:09,850
Happy: you'd have to say comfortably, uh, in terms of the

986
00:54:09,850 --> 00:54:10,850
Happy: points differential.

987
00:54:11,489 --> 00:54:15,970
Karl: I only only because America didn't beat Samoa by enough.

988
00:54:15,969 --> 00:54:18,770
Karl: So I wouldn't say it was comfortable. I'd say it

989
00:54:18,770 --> 00:54:21,489
Karl: was more lucky than comfortable. But hey, they got there.

990
00:54:21,530 --> 00:54:23,450
Karl: That's all that counts. At the end of the, you know,

991
00:54:23,489 --> 00:54:25,810
Karl: in ten years time, people look back and say, yes,

992
00:54:25,810 --> 00:54:27,609
Karl: they got out of the pool. So how they got

993
00:54:27,610 --> 00:54:28,930
Karl: out doesn't really matter.

994
00:54:29,530 --> 00:54:33,130
Happy: Throughout the year. And he took it like a champion. Um.

995
00:54:35,969 --> 00:54:39,650
Happy: And other games on this weekend. We got the, the, uh,

996
00:54:40,450 --> 00:54:45,530
Happy: the um, Brumbies in the, uh, Super Rugby or super

997
00:54:45,570 --> 00:54:48,810
Happy: AU or Australian AU, whatever you want to call it. Um,

998
00:54:49,770 --> 00:54:53,710
Happy: a couple of the Super Rugby guys and a few

999
00:54:53,750 --> 00:54:58,310
Happy: clubbies getting into both the Waratahs and the force. Uh,

1000
00:54:58,630 --> 00:55:02,350
Happy: both teams are out there fairly decent. Matt Phillips is

1001
00:55:02,350 --> 00:55:06,270
Happy: playing amateur heroes, getting a run, so it's serving a

1002
00:55:06,270 --> 00:55:10,870
Happy: good purpose in terms of the guys who are just

1003
00:55:10,910 --> 00:55:14,190
Happy: on the outside looking in. From the Wallabies perspective, getting

1004
00:55:14,190 --> 00:55:16,790
Happy: them a run and also getting it, getting a bit

1005
00:55:16,790 --> 00:55:22,350
Happy: of a run into, uh, into, um, some potential potential

1006
00:55:22,469 --> 00:55:28,469
Happy: guys for next year. Um, the, the force have got

1007
00:55:28,510 --> 00:55:34,190
Happy: Darcy Swain playing. He's captaining their team. Um, George Pullman's playing, uh,

1008
00:55:34,230 --> 00:55:37,710
Happy: Matt Greely's having a run. So that's really cool. Uh,

1009
00:55:39,590 --> 00:55:41,870
Happy: in terms of, uh, Brisbane guys to look out for,

1010
00:55:41,870 --> 00:55:44,310
Happy: for those of us who are from Brisbane, uh, there's

1011
00:55:44,310 --> 00:55:48,310
Happy: a club called Bradley Kuhn who's um, from University of

1012
00:55:48,310 --> 00:55:50,830
Happy: Queensland and formerly, of course, he's having a run for

1013
00:55:50,830 --> 00:55:55,130
Happy: the force. Uh, for the Reds. Aidan, Ross and I

1014
00:55:55,610 --> 00:55:57,090
Happy: are having a run, so that's good to see, because

1015
00:55:57,090 --> 00:55:59,930
Happy: they'll be, uh, pretty much two of their starting props

1016
00:55:59,930 --> 00:56:04,730
Happy: next year. Um, Joe Breuil, Kalani Thomas, Henry McLaughlin, Phillips

1017
00:56:04,730 --> 00:56:08,649
Happy: all having a go. Um, couple of clubbies to look

1018
00:56:08,650 --> 00:56:12,570
Happy: out for as, uh, Theo Fleury and Kellen Herbert. Uh,

1019
00:56:13,570 --> 00:56:17,250
Happy: note for you, Kyle Cohen was the former, uh, New

1020
00:56:17,250 --> 00:56:21,730
Happy: Zealand under 20s captain back in the day. Uh, the.

1021
00:56:22,210 --> 00:56:26,129
Happy: But he's a born and raised on the Gold Coast. Um,

1022
00:56:26,489 --> 00:56:28,650
Happy: and there's, you know, a few boys that you recognize

1023
00:56:28,650 --> 00:56:34,529
Happy: from the Brumbies being Reece Vanek. Uh, Declan. Meredith. Ollie. Sapsford. Hudson. Crichton.

1024
00:56:34,810 --> 00:56:36,770
Happy: So there's a few boys in there who you. Who

1025
00:56:36,810 --> 00:56:39,850
Happy: you know and love. So be worth getting down to. Uh,

1026
00:56:40,450 --> 00:56:46,010
Happy: I believe the Waratahs game is at manly. Uh, Manly

1027
00:56:46,010 --> 00:56:49,250
Happy: Rugby Union Club. And the Reds, of course, will be

1028
00:56:49,250 --> 00:56:54,550
Happy: playing out of Ballymore. Uh, what are your thoughts, Sally?

1029
00:56:54,550 --> 00:56:56,189
Happy: Who do you think will win each of those games?

1030
00:56:56,190 --> 00:56:57,590
Happy: You've had a look at both teams.

1031
00:56:57,830 --> 00:57:03,110
Sully: I think the Waratahs, uh, look good on paper. Um, uh,

1032
00:57:03,110 --> 00:57:07,990
Sully: just interesting on your thoughts. Like Isaac is is a reserve, uh,

1033
00:57:08,030 --> 00:57:12,030
Sully: loosehead in that game for the Waratahs. Like he was a.

1034
00:57:14,190 --> 00:57:17,310
Sully: Starter for the rebels. Nearly like fully on. And now

1035
00:57:17,350 --> 00:57:20,350
Sully: since Waratahs he's a flower getting the start. What do

1036
00:57:20,350 --> 00:57:21,270
Sully: you think's happened there.

1037
00:57:22,590 --> 00:57:23,430
S9: Uh I don't.

1038
00:57:23,470 --> 00:57:27,190
Happy: Know. It's um look it could be. It could be injury,

1039
00:57:27,230 --> 00:57:29,790
Happy: could be loss of form, could be just. He's not

1040
00:57:29,990 --> 00:57:32,910
Happy: coalescing with, uh, Dan McKellar as the coach.

1041
00:57:33,310 --> 00:57:33,630
Sully: Yeah.

1042
00:57:33,670 --> 00:57:36,590
Happy: And sometimes, sometimes it just happens with some players that,

1043
00:57:37,070 --> 00:57:41,670
Happy: you know, obviously taint Edmonton McKellar didn't work well together. Um,

1044
00:57:43,310 --> 00:57:44,910
Happy: McKellar I think will be in a little bit of

1045
00:57:44,910 --> 00:57:49,210
Happy: pressure next year because there's been for the for the

1046
00:57:49,210 --> 00:57:51,250
Happy: quality of the squad that the Tigers have got. They

1047
00:57:51,250 --> 00:57:54,250
Happy: certainly underperformed. Get away with that year one. But you

1048
00:57:54,250 --> 00:57:55,890
Happy: worry about it for you know if you can't get

1049
00:57:55,890 --> 00:57:58,690
Happy: some consistency into the year two he could be on

1050
00:57:58,730 --> 00:58:00,330
Happy: the on the hot seat a bit.

1051
00:58:01,290 --> 00:58:04,770
Sully: Um I wonder if Brumbies coaches are like uh, Crusaders

1052
00:58:04,770 --> 00:58:07,410
Sully: coaches that, uh, once you take them out of that,

1053
00:58:08,650 --> 00:58:11,450
Sully: out of that system that they don't quite do as well.

1054
00:58:12,370 --> 00:58:15,850
Happy: Very nice, very nice. Um.

1055
00:58:16,650 --> 00:58:19,610
Sully: Yeah. But I read breadsall, uh, flogged the Brumbies mate

1056
00:58:19,610 --> 00:58:22,090
Sully: like they always do. Brumbies.

1057
00:58:25,250 --> 00:58:28,090
Karl: Um, I must admit, I, I don't know enough about

1058
00:58:28,090 --> 00:58:30,370
Karl: all the different players to have too much. I, I

1059
00:58:30,410 --> 00:58:33,810
Karl: just think that for me, it's just really good to

1060
00:58:33,850 --> 00:58:37,970
Karl: see that Australia has brought something in that is giving

1061
00:58:37,970 --> 00:58:43,130
Karl: these guys, um, both the people who are playing Super

1062
00:58:43,130 --> 00:58:46,490
Karl: Rugby already, but also those club players that are stepping up,

1063
00:58:46,850 --> 00:58:49,420
Karl: they're giving them that next level rugby so that they're

1064
00:58:49,420 --> 00:58:52,660
Karl: gaining experience so that when they or if they do

1065
00:58:52,660 --> 00:58:54,860
Karl: have to step up to the next level, they've actually

1066
00:58:54,860 --> 00:58:57,700
Karl: got some experience before they get there. So I think

1067
00:58:57,740 --> 00:59:00,460
Karl: it's great. I think it's absolutely great.

1068
00:59:00,980 --> 00:59:04,340
Sully: I'm pretty keen, um, to watch a bit of Pacquiao

1069
00:59:05,220 --> 00:59:08,820
Sully: as well, because I think he is like the a future, um,

1070
00:59:08,980 --> 00:59:11,780
Sully: long term Reds inside centre. So it'll be interesting to

1071
00:59:11,780 --> 00:59:14,940
Sully: see how he develops in the next, I don't know,

1072
00:59:14,980 --> 00:59:19,740
Sully: 12 months maybe. Yeah. I think he's already putting pressure on, um,

1073
00:59:20,820 --> 00:59:21,420
Sully: by Sammy.

1074
00:59:21,500 --> 00:59:26,660
Happy: Sammy. Yeah, yeah. Look. And, uh, similarly with Isaac Henry,

1075
00:59:26,660 --> 00:59:28,340
Happy: you hope he gets a bit of a run because

1076
00:59:28,340 --> 00:59:30,100
Happy: he's had a horrendous game with injury.

1077
00:59:30,820 --> 00:59:33,020
Sully: He's played club rugby, hasn't he though.

1078
00:59:33,460 --> 00:59:35,860
Happy: Yeah he did, he did. He played a few games

1079
00:59:35,860 --> 00:59:40,020
Happy: early on mid-season, came back, got injured again, then came

1080
00:59:40,020 --> 00:59:42,260
Happy: back again, then managed to get a run for the

1081
00:59:42,260 --> 00:59:44,820
Happy: Reds right at the back end of Super Rugby. Yeah.

1082
00:59:45,060 --> 00:59:50,440
Happy: So He's. You can only hope. You can only hope. Um,

1083
00:59:51,360 --> 00:59:55,080
Happy: you know, there's a few. Good. I mean, obviously, being Queenslander,

1084
00:59:55,240 --> 00:59:58,560
Happy: there's a few few more names I recognize in the, uh,

1085
00:59:58,760 --> 01:00:03,000
Happy: in the Reds team who are, uh, who are good,

1086
01:00:03,240 --> 01:00:06,920
Happy: good players coming up, uh, you know, Will Cartwright's a

1087
01:00:06,920 --> 01:00:09,040
Happy: good player. They've got him as a half back. He

1088
01:00:09,040 --> 01:00:12,000
Happy: played on the wing for brothers in the grand final. Uh,

1089
01:00:12,160 --> 01:00:16,480
Happy: scored three tries, got some real wheels about him, but,

1090
01:00:16,640 --> 01:00:20,280
Happy: you know, he's, um. And Xavier Ruben's in the same boat. Really,

1091
01:00:20,280 --> 01:00:22,040
Happy: really good player. Um.

1092
01:00:22,360 --> 01:00:26,400
Sully: I think seriously, seriously, I was joking about the Reds

1093
01:00:26,400 --> 01:00:29,280
Sully: flogging them before, but, um, I reckon that's going to

1094
01:00:29,280 --> 01:00:30,840
Sully: be a pretty good match up. There's some.

1095
01:00:31,000 --> 01:00:31,840
Happy: That's going to be tasty.

1096
01:00:32,200 --> 01:00:32,480
Sully: There.

1097
01:00:33,240 --> 01:00:35,720
Happy: Yeah, it's going to be tasty. I think it's good

1098
01:00:35,720 --> 01:00:39,080
Happy: to see from, from a, from a red supporter. You

1099
01:00:39,120 --> 01:00:42,040
Happy: it's good to see that team recognise a lot of

1100
01:00:42,040 --> 01:00:44,760
Happy: players and go they've they've got the four guys who
