I 17 00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,200 Speaker 1: want them kicked out of the competition, absolutely all about 18 00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:00,280 Speaker 1: I know you, Gordy. 19 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:00,640 Speaker 4: That's extreme. 20 00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:03,120 Speaker 3: Are you not just saying that, Gordy? You actually mean that? 21 00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:07,240 Speaker 1: Hither this is the Olympic Games we're talking about. This 22 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:12,760 Speaker 1: is meant to be the pinnacle events for integrity, honesty, sportsmanship, 23 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,600 Speaker 1: and that has gone completely out the window in this instant. 24 00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:17,480 Speaker 1: So yes, I want them kicked out of the competition. 25 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:18,120 Speaker 1: Why shouldn't they? 26 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:19,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, Piney, what do you think? 27 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:20,000 Speaker 4: I agree? 28 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 2: Unfortunately, those virtues that Andrew talks about and that we 29 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 2: all admire and in our sports people, they exited a 30 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:29,319 Speaker 2: long time ago from the Olympic Games unfortunately. So look, 31 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 2: you know, fast to higher, stronger. They didn't didn't fly 32 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 2: it high enough, did they to avoid detection? 33 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 4: This Gordy. 34 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 3: Listen. The thing that's complicated about it, though, is who has, like, 35 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 3: under whose purview does this fall? Is it FIFA or 36 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 3: is it the IOC. 37 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's murky waters, There isn't that. And I suspect 38 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 1: they will both stand there and point the finger at 39 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 1: each other other and say, hey, this is your problem. No, 40 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: this is your problem. We won't fix it now. We'll 41 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 1: sort it out after the event when it's far too late, 42 00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: especially for the football team. 43 00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:57,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. 44 00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 3: I mean, because if it's FIFA, Piney that's staying in competition. Up, 45 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 3: they're getting a round of applause for cheating, aren't they. 46 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 2: I'm not sure about that, but they do tend to 47 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 2: work at glacial speed. These two organizations, and I mean. 48 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:10,240 Speaker 3: To negotiate who's going to pay them the most money. 49 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:11,080 Speaker 4: Well maybe that's it. 50 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 2: But see, they have to act quickly, and they won't 51 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 2: because if they're going to dock points, that'll effect obviously 52 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:18,960 Speaker 2: the Olympic competition. It's only run over about ten days. 53 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 2: They've got to act now or not at all, because. 54 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,400 Speaker 3: Pony, you cannot have a scenario where you have got 55 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 3: the cheating Canadians, recidivus cheats standing on the podium. 56 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,000 Speaker 2: Can you we might have that? We might well have that. 57 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,920 Speaker 2: That's one absolutely possible outcome. Oh it's Canada. This morning 58 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:36,079 Speaker 2: they were okay, you know, in a footballing sense, but 59 00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 2: you're right, we might have some medalists who have been 60 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 2: found to be in their men's and women's program to 61 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 2: be endemic droners. 62 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 3: I'm just digging all the dad jokes today, Gordy. I 63 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 3: don't know about you. Gordy. Listen on the sevens, like 64 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 3: this is bad juju right right at the start. 65 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not great, it's not great, but I'll be 66 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 1: honest with that. I'm not going to lose any sleepover. 67 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 1: I mean, sevens rugby is like to twenty cricket and 68 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 1: obviously we're seeing what happened to the Black Cats this 69 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:06,799 Speaker 1: year's World Cup. It's not that these sorts of results 70 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:09,239 Speaker 1: can happen in this format of the game. Yeah, and 71 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 1: the dice didn't roll their way this time. Very un 72 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 1: said obviously for the all black Stevens. But you know 73 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: it's called a final defeat. It's the Olympic Games. This 74 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 1: is what happens. 75 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, what do you reckonpony? 76 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll still cheerladly for our women and I think 77 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 2: they are a really good metal chants. But yeah, it 78 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 2: feels as though the men's game, more than the women's 79 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:27,360 Speaker 2: game is just is so fraught with possibility of something 80 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 2: like this happening because it's so tight. So difficulty is 81 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:31,640 Speaker 2: is they've got to stay there now and compete for 82 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 2: the you know, the bracket of whatever it is, nine 83 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 2: to twelve. 84 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's the day out. 85 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 3: You just go to the opening ceremony and get absolutely sloshed. 86 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:41,120 Speaker 3: Wouldn't You wouldn't care, would you? 87 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 1: Yeah? 88 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 4: I think you probably would you. 89 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 3: Yeah. 90 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 1: This is that's for me. 91 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 3: For me, want this is why we're not athletes. You 92 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 3: and I all three of us or three of us? Ok, 93 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 3: what are our best chance meddlers do you reckon? 94 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, look, good question. I mean I think everyone's 95 00:03:57,760 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 1: going to be looking to lead to Carrington, right. I 96 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:03,120 Speaker 1: was sort of pondering, actually, how many medals we might 97 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 1: might win gold and collectively across the entire thing. I know, 98 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 1: obviously we did exceedingly well at the last Olympic Games, 99 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:13,240 Speaker 1: were what was it seven gold medals twenty overall out 100 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 1: our greatest ever whore. I don't know that I can 101 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:19,719 Speaker 1: quite expect that many this time. But yeah, we're going 102 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,159 Speaker 1: to be looking to the usual suspect, and I don't know, 103 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 1: I have some quiet hopes perhaps with the likes of 104 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: some of our cyclists, possibly even Hamish Curves. But yeah, 105 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:33,040 Speaker 1: I think I'm looking forward to seeing some surprises come 106 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,279 Speaker 1: out of this Olympic Games for the New Zealand team 107 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: as well. 108 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:38,159 Speaker 3: In terms pinty of where the games have sat in 109 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,479 Speaker 3: the past historically is going to Is this looking to 110 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,040 Speaker 3: be one of the great ones? Middling, not so great? 111 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:44,360 Speaker 2: I guess we'll have to wait till the end to 112 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 2: find out. In terms of New Zealand participation in success, Yeah, 113 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 2: Andrew's absolutely right. I don't I think twenty is a 114 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 2: bridge too far. I don't think we'll get twenty. I 115 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:55,119 Speaker 2: think it'll be in the teens somewhere. And like Andrew, 116 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 2: I just love the surprises the people you don't expect 117 00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 2: to middle always a yeah yeah.

What goes on the air, the thirty seconds 145 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 2: or sixty seconds that goes on the air is worth 146 00:05:57,760 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 2: the hours and hours that go and to get in 147 00:05:59,279 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 2: it on the air. 148 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 3: No, but poney, you shouldn't have to beg them for 149 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 3: three months to come on the show. They should be 150 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:07,599 Speaker 3: wanting to go on the sports radio show in the 151 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 3: country because they are now fighting. It's not the nineteen seventies. 152 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 3: They are fighting against our distraction being Netflix, the Warriors, 153 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 3: all the stuff that all concerts and towns and stuff like, 154 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:20,160 Speaker 3: We've got a thousand different things to do instead of 155 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,159 Speaker 3: watching the All Blacks. They should begging you for three months. 156 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 2: We did, just to be feel just to be clear, 157 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 2: we didn't beg them to come on. We asked them. 158 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 2: We kept on, We kept on requesting, we kept on requesting. 159 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 2: I suppose that is bigging in a way, isn't it? 160 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 4: Jee? Good? 161 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 1: Am? 162 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 3: I am hyperactive about this? Or is this fair? 163 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 1: No? Okay, So I've got two things to say about this. 164 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 1: I think what Mike has said about this is fair, 165 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 1: But I would honestly say it's better now than it 166 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 1: probably has ever been. I think what you're saying either, 167 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:54,160 Speaker 1: I think New Zealand Rugby and their media people actually 168 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:57,279 Speaker 1: understand that point of view better than they ever have before. 169 00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 1: So look for Hosking if you can't get it all 170 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:01,839 Speaker 1: back on the show. He needs to build some relationships. 171 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 1: He needs to get down to their level.
