My big issue here 12 00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:29,520 Speaker 3: is not that horror for newer company have to make 13 00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:35,279 Speaker 3: this decision, not that college Rugby Wellington backing it up 14 00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:38,240 Speaker 3: and made some more moves. My problem here is INSI 15 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:40,600 Speaker 3: are run the game of this country, right, don't they? 16 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 1: Yes? 17 00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:41,760 Speaker 3: Their game? Right? 18 00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 1: Yes? 19 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:46,960 Speaker 3: Okay, so tell me why ho corpity Rugby, this little 20 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:50,720 Speaker 3: tiny pu right, Why are they doing this? Why did 21 00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:53,320 Speaker 3: they have to do this? Why are they suddenly standing 22 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:55,120 Speaker 3: there going you know what, We're going to draw a 23 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:57,720 Speaker 3: line because we believe this is wrong for our community, 24 00:00:57,720 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 3: it's wrong for a game. We're not putting up with it. 25 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 3: Where it ins it are they seem to have to 26 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:07,200 Speaker 3: resolve that said thoughts and prayers. Basically, we support them 27 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 3: this is great. Now you lead the game. This is 28 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:11,920 Speaker 3: your job. This is your role is to look after 29 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:14,679 Speaker 3: the grassroots of the game because without that we don't 30 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:18,319 Speaker 3: have superstars. We need to look after it. They need 31 00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 3: to roll and they need to issue edicts like this one. Okay, 32 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,039 Speaker 3: we're not putting out with this anymore. This happens anywhere 33 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,679 Speaker 3: in the country that whole pu we shut their rugby 34 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,840 Speaker 3: down from the next weekend and then suddenly there's a 35 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 3: ground swell and mums and dads and people go, oh, 36 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,200 Speaker 3: this really is actually starting to effect us. So suddenly 37 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 3: there are a lot of people standing there going not 38 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:40,959 Speaker 3: on our watch because at the moment, people are too 39 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 3: afraid to do it. 40 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 2: All right, So you think that basically, if it gets 41 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,240 Speaker 2: taken off the people, the people will police the game themselves. 42 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:47,039 Speaker 3: I think so. 43 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: Now, okay, fair enough. 44 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 2: Do you understand that the altercation was, rather than being 45 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 2: between the mums and dads on the side of the field, 46 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 2: was actually between the reef and one of the coaches. 47 00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's it, And it was then there was from 48 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 3: the sideline. There were dramas and driven at the referee. 49 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 3: There were issues with the team. So that is not 50 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 3: parental driven. But what it is is they as a result, 51 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,360 Speaker 3: I think the overarching result when people are with their 52 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 3: teams and with their coaches saying we don't do this anymore. Yeah, 53 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 3: it's the pressure. We're not joining your clubs. 54 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:32,680 Speaker 2: This is what has been has been said on our 55 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 2: station today. And you tell me if this is what 56 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 2: you understand. What happened was that Mona College was leading 57 00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 2: the game. You can clarify. 58 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,080 Speaker 1: Any of these points could be wrong, right, I wasn't 59 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 1: there hard to believe you love your rugby that much? 60 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 2: Okay, So Mona College was leading, the game went on, 61 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:50,959 Speaker 2: the crowd felt that the final whis still should. 62 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 1: Have been blown. It wasn't blown. 63 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 2: In that time, Carpeti College managed to score a try 64 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:57,520 Speaker 2: and because of that, that is why there was an 65 00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:01,240 Speaker 2: altercation between the coach of them now using team and 66 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,919 Speaker 2: the referee. And there was apparently either a shovel or punch. 67 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 3: That's what I believe how that got initiated, I don't know. 68 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:10,960 Speaker 1: You don't know who threw the shovel to punch. 69 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 3: No, or what contributed to that. You don't even have 70 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,399 Speaker 3: a situation. My side, your side, The truth of three 71 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:19,799 Speaker 3: sides to every story what fired it up to a degree? 72 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 3: Was it a referee's late decision that should have been 73 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,360 Speaker 3: accepted by everybody because that's the nature of refereeing. Yes, 74 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 3: did the opposing coach or the players have a crack 75 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:32,679 Speaker 3: at the referee for what they thought was the incorrect decision? 76 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 3: Did that crack cause the referee to crack back? Was it? 77 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:41,120 Speaker 3: Did they flip them the bird or a full blown 78 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:44,840 Speaker 3: punch to the face. We don't know because we weren't there, 79 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 3: but I think that when push comes to shove, the referees' 80 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 3: decision is fair and final and if you don't like it, 81 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 3: bad luck, wear it. 82 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 2: Okay, Thank you Darcy.
