Speaker 1: Life in the Export Beer Garden Studio and brought to
Speaker 1: you by Export Ultra the bar for here. This is
Speaker 1: the Agenda Podcast, four Thursday, the eighteenth of July.
Speaker 2: The Agenda Podcast, the home of Sporting Nonsense and clap trap,
Speaker 2: brought to you my next sport vulture.
Speaker 1: Welcome in from Witness Protection and surrounded by horse racing
Speaker 1: paraphernalia or memorabilia rather j Lane.
Speaker 3: Good morning morning. Yeah, I'm surrounded by Azuwary this time
Speaker 3: Rodney three time winner. As Awary five time winner won
Speaker 3: the Sydney Cup apparently.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that sounds very official. The Sydney Cup.
Speaker 3: Yeah, in nineteen eighty four, and actually I've got like
Speaker 3: they brought out a commemorative bottle of port see here
Speaker 3: to celebrate as Awary's victory. Actually it was nineteen eighty
Speaker 3: two one Sydney.
Speaker 4: Cup, and that looks like it's been enjoyed.
Speaker 3: Yes, it's empty, probably.
Speaker 1: For the best state of origin last night. So I
Speaker 1: think a few people are around the country and certainly
Speaker 1: around New South Wales will be moving pretty slowly this morning.
Speaker 1: Everyone that's coming to the office just off the back
Speaker 1: of maybe one too many beers last night, and just
Speaker 1: you know, productivity is probably not quite we you'd expected
Speaker 1: on a Thursday.
Speaker 4: It's a real week ruin over here in New Zealand,
Speaker 4: state of origin.
Speaker 3: Yeah it is, because yeah, it wrapped up just before midnight.
Speaker 3: I stayed up and watched it. Did a sterling job
Speaker 3: was Die Henwood and Ben Hurley on the call. But
Speaker 3: it was a pretty torrid affair in that first half.
Speaker 3: To all was at the break.
Speaker 1: It was so if you didn't watch the game last night,
Speaker 1: the clock in the corner, oh fucked out straight off
Speaker 1: the bat and it just said one h So with
Speaker 1: the old commentary, it was like, what is this.
Speaker 4: Eventually, when they fixed it, it's.
Speaker 1: At the proper time flashed up and eight minutes had
Speaker 1: elapsed of game time and I felt like I'd been
Speaker 1: watching that game for an hour.
Speaker 4: I was like, this has been hecked that.
Speaker 1: You cannot tell me this has only been eight minutes
Speaker 1: of action because it was frantic from the moment.
Speaker 4: The first was when wasn't it?
Speaker 3: Yeah it was, but they were so there was the
Speaker 3: clock started, and then they went for a countdown clock,
Speaker 3: so then it was at thirty six minutes and then
Speaker 3: it went disappeared and one h came up again and
Speaker 3: then it came to eight minutes. It was hopelessly confusing
Speaker 3: and the like, you're right, they consumed the commentary for
Speaker 3: the first ten minutes what was going on there? But
Speaker 3: it was like you look at that school line, you go,
Speaker 3: oh to all, But it was end.
Speaker 4: To end, No, it was. It was hectic and it
Speaker 4: wasn't a boring to all. You know that.
Speaker 1: I think if you woke up the next morning and
Speaker 1: they had checked the scores, you'd be like, oh, thank god,
Speaker 1: I didn't stop to watch it. But it was actually madness,
Speaker 1: like from the start, and it was only a matter
Speaker 1: of time before one team just got so buggered that
Speaker 1: they let go of the rope, and unfortunately that was
Speaker 1: Queensland and they just they just got towed up really
Speaker 1: in that last sort of fifteen minutes in there.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know, And I stupidly I put some happiness
Speaker 3: insurance im in New South Wales supporter by no other
Speaker 3: reason than I've been to Sydney more times in Brisbane
Speaker 3: and so. But I dumped my TA B account on
Speaker 3: Queensland because I was like, ah, they're playing at home.
Speaker 3: They never lose at sun Court, and they tuned around
Speaker 3: and they lost, but a biff. Good to see a
Speaker 3: bit of birth.
Speaker 1: Back, yeah, bit of berth, but a bit of how's
Speaker 1: your father? It was very scrappy. I was actually before
Speaker 1: the game. I knew it was going to be like that,
Speaker 1: and I thought, I wonder if there's a way I
Speaker 1: can turn this into a financial gain for myself. But
Speaker 1: I couldn't find a.
Speaker 4: Sin binning on the tab.
Speaker 1: But I was like, I'm so sure if a sin
Speaker 1: bend for both teams was an option, I was going
Speaker 1: to get on it. I also swung for the fences
Speaker 1: last night and had a four league multi that was
Speaker 1: paying about six hundred bucks, and.
Speaker 3: I did that too. I went to the I went
Speaker 3: to the to the Maltese and then like most popular ones,
Speaker 3: and I just put it. I spread a dollar on.
Speaker 3: Quite a few of them were like six hundred and
Speaker 3: seven hundred bucks. I was like, oh, that's worth a dollar.
Speaker 3: That's worth a dollar. That's worth a dollar. Hoping for
Speaker 3: a high scoring affair because it was like four or
Speaker 3: five try scorers combined into a New South Wales worm
Speaker 3: and just the blow out in the end.
Speaker 1: I knew it was going to go low. But that's
Speaker 1: all about all I knew about that game. Our boy Mona,
Speaker 1: Mitch gave himself, gave a great account of himself for
Speaker 1: his state. Yesterday I caught up with Tom from the
Speaker 1: hellow Sports podcast that big new South Welshman. They are
Speaker 1: big on Mitch Barnett when they heard the story. I
Speaker 1: don't know if you listened to the podcast yesterday, but
Speaker 1: when they heard the story about Mitch Barnett missing the
Speaker 1: birth of his son to hold pads at training, they
Speaker 1: were like, we're going to do something to reward him.
Speaker 1: They wanted to buy him nappies and wet wipes to
Speaker 1: the value of the amount of meters he ran, multiplied
Speaker 1: by the amount of tackles he made, multiplied by a
Speaker 1: fuck load, and that was.
Speaker 4: Their three metrics.
Speaker 1: So we now we still don't know what a fuckload is,
Speaker 1: but we now know how many tackles and meters he made.
Speaker 4: The problem we have is.
Speaker 1: They don't want to just donate the money to the club,
Speaker 1: because that's not really the the idea it's about.
Speaker 4: It's about the act of gift giving.
Speaker 1: But they can't fly the stuff over because now you're
Speaker 1: bringing customs into it. So I said yesterday, can we help,
Speaker 1: We'll get a use we can take it out there.
Speaker 1: What I don't what I need to figure out now
Speaker 1: is I was sort of hoping that the Blues would
Speaker 1: lose last night and this whole thing would just fall
Speaker 1: by the wayside because I've actually accidentally signed myself up.
Speaker 4: For more work. But now I'm going to figure out
Speaker 4: the logistics of do we go at the costco?
Speaker 1: Do we take our credit card and then bank on
Speaker 1: the fact that we're gonna charge Hello Sport back for it.
Speaker 3: It's an interesting conundrum, isn't it, Like do we ask
Speaker 3: for careshap front from Hello Sport? I mean, are they
Speaker 3: good for it?
Speaker 1: You?
Speaker 3: You obviously talk to them, and I mean how the
Speaker 3: judge of character there the kind of guys will pay
Speaker 3: Apple we'd fly over to Sydney and you know some
Speaker 3: standover tectics.
Speaker 1: I think I think they're good for I think the
Speaker 1: men of their word. I don't know the financial situation
Speaker 1: over there at Hello Sports Podcast. I know they tell
Speaker 1: us that they're good for it, and I believe that
Speaker 1: when they tell us that, they believe that.
Speaker 3: But you know what, what are we looking at?
Speaker 1: Well costs? This is this is what I don't know. Obviously,
Speaker 1: the funct hunt aside. I don't know how how many
Speaker 1: nappies does a new parent need?
Speaker 4: You go through?
Speaker 3: Probably five or six today a day.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so how big is it?
Speaker 1: Because I was looking up some of the different packs
Speaker 1: you can get, and you can get big seventy packs.
Speaker 1: They're about yes, would they be about thirty dollars for
Speaker 1: like a seventy packs?
Speaker 4: That sounds about right.
Speaker 3: I'm unsure, but yeah, the newborn ones they're quite small
Speaker 3: because the newborn ones they're just squirting, squirting constantly because
Speaker 3: they're on them, they're on the mother's milk, so they're
Speaker 3: the whole time, you know. So it's yeah, it's there's
Speaker 3: not a lot of body to it. It's just bum squirts, bumweez.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I guess the logistics are, maybe we talk
Speaker 1: to them, we agree on a number that we are
Speaker 1: confident in that they're good for. We take it in
Speaker 1: good faith that we use our own company credit card
Speaker 1: head out to Costco the warehouse somewhere like this. They
Speaker 1: did mention that they'd reached out to Huggies and got
Speaker 1: given one of the.
Speaker 4: Big stuff arms of all time.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, from that, So yeah, I think that's where
Speaker 1: we come in Okay, I.
Speaker 3: Like, come into it if you think they're good for it,
Speaker 3: if you can vouch for their character, mini and their
Speaker 3: their financial acumen for Australians. But if you can vouch
Speaker 3: for them, then finalance do it? Maybe reach a number
Speaker 3: that that's the it's the funck load times of funck
Speaker 3: load that might might trip us.
Speaker 4: That's the variable. Yeah, that's the veryable. We're going to
Speaker 4: do it?
Speaker 1: All right, Well I will, I'll fire an email off
Speaker 1: and but look, here's what we're willing to do.
Speaker 4: What's the number you're comfortable with us? You know?
Speaker 3: Well, then we've got to throw out logistics of how
Speaker 3: we're going to get it. To Mitch Barnett, how were
Speaker 3: going to get Do we just go out to Warriors
Speaker 3: training and just tip the back of the ute into
Speaker 3: the field. Do we drop it at his house? Do
Speaker 3: we drop it at the club? Because I have a
Speaker 3: sneaky suspicion if we drop it at the club, they'll
Speaker 3: donate it to the local community and do something quite
Speaker 3: you know who wholesome with it. Yeah, we need to
Speaker 3: we need to live it at least some to Mitch Barney.
Speaker 1: He doesn't seem like the kind of guy who would
Speaker 1: willingly give out his home address, would be my only concern.
Speaker 4: Okay, I certainly don't.
Speaker 3: Maybe that's that's a job for the Hello Sport team.
Speaker 3: I think you know they've got contexts in Sydney.
Speaker 4: Yes, they've got contacts with the Warriors. Yes, yeah, you're right.
Speaker 1: I mentioned to them that we do have a yute,
Speaker 1: but it's got the you know there's it's got the
Speaker 1: pull out draws in the back of the tray.
Speaker 4: So we actually don't have a whole lot.
Speaker 1: Of storage space in there, but we could We could
Speaker 1: potentially use the caravan.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we could load the caravan easy or just get
Speaker 3: a cage trailer. I'm picking. If we're going to buy
Speaker 3: five thousand dollars in the nappiece, it's quite a lot.
Speaker 3: It's once the palette.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Pellett, let's just ask Costco or a palette
Speaker 1: costs and then go from there. All right, all right,
Speaker 1: well we'll take that offline. We'll have a tense, terse negotiation.
Speaker 1: I have to figure out the exchange rate with the
Speaker 1: Australian dollar as well, and we'll figure that whole thing out.
Speaker 1: They are open to coming over here and helping assist
Speaker 1: with the delivery as well pull us off.
Speaker 4: So we'll keep this We'll keep this ball rolling.
Speaker 1: We need to capitalize on this momentum while we can
Speaker 1: the other big sporting news and the reason why the
Speaker 1: podcast a little later out this afternoon is because the
Speaker 1: All Blacks team list has been named and Raza has
Speaker 1: gotten very, very experimental with this one, as I think
Speaker 1: we all knew.
Speaker 3: Who's going to.
Speaker 1: To Mighty Williams sare More Fletcher Newle Scott Barrett retains
Speaker 1: the captain's armband. Tipo Vaii joins him because tweet be
Speaker 1: loot to Evan's Charlton stayed home. American Dad Luke Jacobson
Speaker 1: Ethan Blackadder both find their way onto the park to
Speaker 1: start here. Artie Savia will be at number eight. Cortez,
Speaker 1: fresh off his debut, will be your half back. Damien McKenzie.
Speaker 1: It's his fiftieth cap for the All Blacks. He's in
Speaker 1: at first five. Jubb with the Buck Cali Clark's in
Speaker 1: there at eleven, Anton Leonard Brown, Billy Proctor makes his debut,
Speaker 1: Sevarice and Bowden.
Speaker 4: Barrett comes back into fallback.
Speaker 1: There's a raft of debutantes off the bell as well
Speaker 1: off the bench as well, George Bell, Passilo Tossi, Sam
Speaker 1: Darry and Wallace Side City's in there, plus Noah Hotham.
Speaker 1: So they're really just blooding a few a few new players,
Speaker 1: aren't they.
Speaker 3: Yeah, how Sam Darry. Sam Darry would have just been
Speaker 3: on the tear after the Super Rugby Final and all
Speaker 3: of a sudden, Patrick Tupelo to even Charlton One news
Speaker 3: goes down and he's now he's going to make his
Speaker 3: debut for the All Blacks in California.
Speaker 1: It sort of reminds me. Have you ever seen Blue
Speaker 1: Mountain State? It was there was an American show about
Speaker 1: a college football team, and it was all centered around
Speaker 1: the reserve quarterback and how he was basically just in
Speaker 1: the team just to be a college quarterback. But he
Speaker 1: didn't actually want to play any of the games. He
Speaker 1: just wanted to go to the frat houses and piss up.
Speaker 1: But the starting quarterback kept getting injured. He's like, fuck,
Speaker 1: I gotta play again. I feel like that's been twenty
Speaker 1: twenty four for Samdarry. He's just been sort of hanging
Speaker 1: out on the bench and then all of a sudden
Speaker 1: Too is injured again. He's like, oh fuck, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: have to come and play every game of Super rugby
Speaker 1: to an All Black level. And then he's like, oh sweet,
Speaker 1: at least I don't. I can get on the person
Speaker 1: now say oh again. Now I'm gonna go back in there.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's great to see side tit in there.
Speaker 3: Great to see quartees at Atim rewarded for his energetic
Speaker 3: twenty thirty minutes on Saturday. That's it's gonna be. It's
Speaker 3: gonna be good for him. Good. I mean, this is
Speaker 3: the opportunity time to blood blood players like when is
Speaker 3: I mean Argentina. Arguably, you wouldn't want to do that
Speaker 3: against Argentina. I've proven, I've proven that, and you don't
Speaker 3: want you certainly don't want to be blooding new players
Speaker 3: in South Africa when they go over there for two
Speaker 3: test matches. So good to see him, you know, throw
Speaker 3: rub it and mud at the wall.
Speaker 4: I don't mind it.
Speaker 1: But I kind of think if I was All Black's coach,
Speaker 1: and perhaps this is why I'm not, I would just
Speaker 1: pick the same team every single week and be like,
Speaker 1: this is the All Black team and it doesn't matter
Speaker 1: if we're playing the Timuru Boys High School First fifteen
Speaker 1: we're playing the spring Box. This is the team and
Speaker 1: we go out there every game and sorry if we
Speaker 1: beat you by one hundred and fifty points to nil,
Speaker 1: but we are the All Blacks. This is the team
Speaker 1: that we play because I do think continuity is a
Speaker 1: big part of it. But I guess as the flip
Speaker 1: side of that that injuries are very real and when
Speaker 1: players go out, you don't want to have to then
Speaker 1: put Wallace Setti under the bright lights.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, you've answered your own question there. That's exactly
Speaker 3: what would happen, because you can't have, you know, side
Speaker 3: Teddy coming into Cape Town with no games under his
Speaker 3: belt to play against South Africa when Ardie Severe goes
Speaker 3: down and Blackadder goes down. So I think it's good.
Speaker 3: I think it's good. It's a good opportunity to do that,
Speaker 3: and that's what we need to do, need to develop
Speaker 3: our players further, and these are the perfect games to
Speaker 3: do it. Certainly, don't do it against argentineass Certainly don't
Speaker 3: do it against Australia or South Africa.
Speaker 1: A couple of interesting points around this game, not particularly
Speaker 1: related to the team list, but one is the name
Speaker 1: of the venue that they're playing as they're in San Diego.
Speaker 1: It is being played at Snapdragon Stadium. One of the
Speaker 1: most powerful names that I've ever heard for a stadium, Snapdragon.
Speaker 1: They know how to do it over there. None of
Speaker 1: the orange theory, Apollo shit.
Speaker 3: Oh Snapdragon. There used to be a bar and buy
Speaker 3: that called Snapdragon. Really, can you remember that? I remember
Speaker 3: being thrown out of there because someone they wouldn't. I
Speaker 3: remember rolling up my receipt and flicking it back at
Speaker 3: the bar and hitting him in the forehead, and then
Speaker 3: him just looking at me and going get out, get
Speaker 3: out of here quickly. Had to biff on my drinks.
Speaker 3: And then a guy the size of Tossi came and
Speaker 3: picked me up, sent me at the back, not out
Speaker 3: the front, at the back in the viaducts. So that
Speaker 3: was even worse. I thought I was going to get
Speaker 3: my beans, buts I care about it.
Speaker 1: At the back of all the chefs are smoking, yeah correct, yeah, unlucky.
Speaker 1: And the other thing is so this one is slated
Speaker 1: for a two thirty start, which I quite like the
Speaker 1: Saturday afternoon start, but we will have dueling huckers, so
Speaker 1: we're going to have to start a little bit early.
Speaker 1: I think we're going to start around the two fifteen.
Speaker 3: What are they going to do? Because are they gonna
Speaker 3: respect each other's hacker or are we going to see a
Speaker 3: hacker off? I think simultaneous.
Speaker 4: Well, this is so.
Speaker 1: What usually happens is the home team will kick theirs
Speaker 1: off first, and then about halfway through, the visitors will
Speaker 1: lay their challenge down. So you got dueling hucker's going on.
Speaker 1: Who is the home team here?
Speaker 4: Is it us?
Speaker 1: I think it's us because it's part of it's still
Speaker 1: the same series.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's still so.
Speaker 3: I believe it's us who are dragging the poor Figan
Speaker 3: team all the way over to California, or they you know,
Speaker 3: they probably quite enjoy that hanging out in San Diego.
Speaker 3: They probably watched the Yeah their sale GP. Yeah, rageously confused.
Speaker 1: I yeah, I feel like with the deweling hocker, they
Speaker 1: know what they're coming up against. Everyone that's you know,
Speaker 1: the Fijian team. They know we're either going to go
Speaker 1: with the old school comments or we had a couple
Speaker 1: of pongo on the weekend twice.
Speaker 4: Hey, we've had it twice. Yeah, I reckon we go
Speaker 4: back to back. I reckon, we go.
Speaker 1: We go A couple of pongos straight into come up
Speaker 1: to it, just so that we drag it out. So
Speaker 1: we go first, then they start, they think are going
Speaker 1: to still be going when we finished, just when we finish,
Speaker 1: fire a couple of pung wo again.
Speaker 3: Oh that's a good idea. Yeah, that's a great idea.
Speaker 3: And then see what they respond with and they might
Speaker 3: have come back with something else, and then someone might
Speaker 3: have to pull out a guitar and then start singing,
Speaker 3: and they just keep coming back for Yeah, what point.
Speaker 1: Do we have to revert to two send of my
Speaker 1: just to just to keep the thing going.
Speaker 3: Just yeah, I'm a big fan of that. They would
Speaker 3: they would throw the Fijians off because that'd expect to
Speaker 3: end it and then all of a sudden yep.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but no, I am looking forward to this regardless.
Speaker 1: Anytime you play Fiji, it's going to be an electric game.
Speaker 1: And the team that we've named as well is going
Speaker 1: to be much the same. So I'm looking forward to that.
Speaker 1: That coverage will start. As we said at two point fifteen,
Speaker 1: Maddy and I are commentating Natman Matt Ward.
Speaker 3: And I'm taking a knee.
Speaker 4: Yeah, look Lane, Lane's gone the ground. He's been stood down.
Speaker 1: It's the no fault standown policy that we have here
Speaker 1: at the a SEC. I think this might be the
Speaker 1: third time you've invoked it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it's been quite a productive year. But look,
Speaker 3: I'm you know, don't forget James mcconey. You will also
Speaker 3: take a knee. But I mean his knee is in
Speaker 3: Paris right now.
Speaker 1: So yeah, he's got an excuse or yours may be too,
Speaker 1: for all we know at the Witness Protection there, let's
Speaker 1: take a quick break before we incriminate ourselves any further.
Speaker 1: But before we do, I just wanted to remind everyone
Speaker 1: about the Snacker Chaney Sports Scholarship, where binge watching is
Speaker 1: a sport.
Speaker 4: Binge watching sport that is.
Speaker 1: To enter for the Snacker Chaney Sports Scholarship, we have

Speaker 4: We'll be right back after these words from our spells
Speaker 4: heikay Lane.
Speaker 1: It is Thursday, and so as we have done every Thursday,
Speaker 1: we're going to a throwback. Thursday is a segment where
Speaker 1: we go through the teamless from back in the day
Speaker 1: and today I'd like to walk you back to nineteen
Speaker 1: ninety seven where we're at North Harbor Stadium.
Speaker 4: It's Saturday, the.
Speaker 1: Fourteenth of June, seven thirty pm, back on the ease
Speaker 1: to play test matches at North Harbor Stadium.
Speaker 4: It is the All Blacks Verse Fiji.
Speaker 1: It will surprise you not at all to learn that
Speaker 1: we won this one seventy one points to five, an
Speaker 1: absolute dusting.
Speaker 4: Here's the team.
Speaker 1: So this is a couple of years after that ninety
Speaker 1: five World Cup that was immortalized in the John O.
Speaker 1: Loomi rugby game. Yeah, but a lot of those names
Speaker 1: still in there. The coach was John Hard of course,
Speaker 1: and at fullback was Christian Cullen. Yes, who scored two
Speaker 1: tries and hit two conversions as well for fourteen points.
Speaker 3: Did he kick goals? I can't remember him kicking goals.
Speaker 1: I don't remember it either, but apparently apparently kicked tell
Speaker 1: of them. Once you're up over fifty points, like fuck,
Speaker 1: who ever scored it, you just turn around and convert it.
Speaker 1: Jeff Wilson was on one wing and it was a
Speaker 1: fruitful afternoon for Jeff Wilson.
Speaker 4: Goal.
Speaker 1: He scored five tries in this game. Oh lit, powerful stuff.
Speaker 1: Frank Buntz was your center and his second five inside
Speaker 1: him was least tenseness.
Speaker 3: Ah tenseness.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so was that as well as a little gone
Speaker 4: by then must have been injured.
Speaker 3: I think he was still around. Yeah, good buns and
Speaker 3: little and North Harbor Stadium would have been a sight
Speaker 3: to see. I'm just thinking that would have been almost
Speaker 3: a brand spanking new North Harbor Stadium back then.
Speaker 4: Yeah, ninety seven.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they would have been feeling new.
Speaker 1: I'd say, yeah, and now they're thinking about bowling it.
Speaker 1: Tana Umongen was still on the wing at that point.
Speaker 1: He scored a try. Andrew Mertins, who was listed under
Speaker 1: a South African flag on the website that I found, I.
Speaker 3: Think that's where their birth, that's the place of birth.
Speaker 3: So I looked at the the bigans. The number of
Speaker 3: new Zealanders playing for Fiji as well.
Speaker 1: Yeah there are anyway, he slotted six conversions. Justin Marshall
Speaker 1: was your half back and he also scored himself a try.
Speaker 1: Tane Randall showed out in the fingerless gloves as well.
Speaker 1: At the back of the scrum. Josh Cronfeld and Michael
Speaker 1: Jones rounding out a powerful, powerful loose Ford trawer.
Speaker 3: That's good.
Speaker 4: That is good.
Speaker 3: Michael Jones tremendous.
Speaker 1: He dotted down for a meat pie as well. Seems
Speaker 1: just about everyone did. Robin Brooke and Ian Jones the
Speaker 1: came o kid were your locks, Olo Brown, Shawan Fitzpatrick
Speaker 1: and Craig Dude.
Speaker 3: With old school, old school front row.
Speaker 1: Olo Brown, Shawn Fitzpatrick, Craig Brown, doubt. Anton Oliver was
Speaker 1: coming off the bench alongside Bill Allen.
Speaker 4: Charles Reichelman. Yep, I don't recall him.
Speaker 3: No, he's a he Auckland Auckland player played blindside and
Speaker 3: Locke as well, Big unit, big Man. I think he
Speaker 3: was on the Match Fit recently on the Match Fit program.
Speaker 1: Well, they got himself a meat pie in that game
Speaker 1: as well. Mark Carter and Scott McLeod round out what
Speaker 1: on my sheet as a six man bench.
Speaker 4: So they've left two names off this this team.
Speaker 5: They didn't need him or they didn't need him I
Speaker 5: want I'll spare you the Fijian team, although one name
Speaker 5: that I did want to call out was Uppy Navo,
Speaker 5: who's the blindside lank who was also a lock as well.
Speaker 4: I think he plied his trade over there in Europe.
Speaker 1: But he had a massive like two thousand and three
Speaker 1: and then two thousand and seven World Cup and on
Speaker 1: the rugby PlayStation games he had the speed of a wigger,
Speaker 1: like the speed rating for I don't know if it
Speaker 1: was a glitch or what, but it was like when
Speaker 1: you were picking your teams. Yeah, he had to get
Speaker 1: up in Iva because he could run like Doug Hawlett
Speaker 1: in that game.
Speaker 3: There's a couple of there's a couple of names in
Speaker 3: there though, Philippe Rayasi, which is the father of Celesie Rayassi. Yeah,
Speaker 3: he's at fullback for FIGI. And there's another couple on
Speaker 3: the bench which I recognized well, howker was Greg Smith
Speaker 3: who was who used to play for White Cattle as
Speaker 3: hooker and big Bill hub of Varty. Remember big Bill
Speaker 3: one hundred and fifty kgs he's currently a dorman in
Speaker 3: Wellington at the moment. Yeah, Big Bill cuming Vati and
Speaker 3: Nikki I remember little Nikki, Yeah, Little Nikki out of
Speaker 3: Tiao Mutu Sports as well. There's they're kind of three
Speaker 3: kind of players or four players that are recognized there
Speaker 3: in that team. But they've got a real toweling that day.
Speaker 4: Jesus yeah, Seiti one five.
Speaker 1: I mean, I was looking back through all of the
Speaker 1: games that you know, we've played against Fiji. There's actually
Speaker 1: not that many. I think there's like twelve or thirteen
Speaker 1: times that we've played them.
Speaker 4: They've never won. But the closest they got was.
Speaker 1: About three years ago we played them over here and
Speaker 1: I think we beat them fifty three to twenty something.
Speaker 3: So I think it'll be I think there'll be a
Speaker 3: lot tougher than what people think. Obviously, they've had a
Speaker 3: couple of seasons of super rugby under their belt with
Speaker 3: the Drury, you know, and I don't know why if
Speaker 3: it's got any sort of any sort of backing to
Speaker 3: this theory, but obviously the Sevens was a big thing
Speaker 3: for them all throughout the kind of nineties and early
Speaker 3: two thousands, and they never really cracked a fifteen game,
Speaker 3: they would overperform Rugby World Cups, but it was almost
Speaker 3: a style. They played a style of sevens with fifteen players.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so it'd be.
Speaker 3: Really interesting to see how the national team comes together
Speaker 3: after the drawer. I reckon they're going to go pretty
Speaker 3: well because you see them through playing at home and
Speaker 3: you transplant that into international footy. It's going to be difficult,
Speaker 3: but they're playing away, so who knows. But I don't
Speaker 3: think it certainly won't be a seventy one point drubbing.
Speaker 4: No, but I do.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like all super Rugby's all we've been talking about
Speaker 1: with the drawer is. I love the fact that they
Speaker 1: are who they are and they won't change it. It
Speaker 1: doesn't matter if they're playing in Nandy, Latoga, if they're
Speaker 1: playing in San Diego, if they're playing in fucking Dunedin
Speaker 1: and down by forty points, they will run it out
Speaker 1: of their own try line and try and score from everywhere.
Speaker 4: And I love a team that knows what they.
Speaker 1: Are, So if they're trying to advertise the game, they
Speaker 1: couldn't have picked a better team to send over there.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm looking forward to that one as well.
Speaker 1: Chragic Tech a little bit here. The Open Championship, the
Speaker 1: most confusingly named sporting tournament, is kicking off overnight tonight
Speaker 1: out time, is that right? And over there in Scotland
Speaker 1: at royal Toon Golf Club there are four kiwis in
Speaker 1: the field. It's the first time that it's happened since
Speaker 1: like two thousand and nine or something, back when Michael
Speaker 1: Campbell's knocking about. They are off the top of my head.
Speaker 1: Ryan Fox obviously Kazumi was his last name, is gaving me.
Speaker 1: We've got Michael Hendry and Daniel Helliott and it's going
Speaker 1: to be exciting to watch those guys go around. Also
Speaker 1: terrifying that Ryan Fox is playing in the Olympics and
Speaker 1: that's only another couple of weeks away. We keep saying, man,
Speaker 1: these things are we're running way too close to the Olympics.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like these tournaments, but I guess that's what they do.
Speaker 3: They just roll around. They'll finish this one, they'll just
Speaker 3: roll into Paris, which is just a hop on like
Speaker 3: a two hour flight. Maybe.
Speaker 4: Yeah, true, Scotland so be fine.
Speaker 3: But Daniel Hilliert, We've got our hunch on him making
Speaker 3: the top forty and the only reason I've gone with
Speaker 3: that hunch is Obviously, Dan Hillier had a good run
Speaker 3: last year. He won the British Open at the Belfry
Speaker 3: last year Member won by two shots, kind of came
Speaker 3: out of nowhere. Yeah, so I've got to you know
Speaker 3: that he loves the conditions over there. I'm picking him
Speaker 3: to be to crack the top forty. I was going
Speaker 3: to go for a vibe punt on Foxy, but he
Speaker 3: hasn't been playing overly well recently. But he's back kind
Speaker 3: of back in Europe where he kind of is more comfortable,
Speaker 3: I guess over the last few years. But yeah, Dan Hilliot,
Speaker 3: we've got a Hundi on him. That's the hunch to
Speaker 3: him to make the top forty. You can bet on
Speaker 3: all sorts something open. There's so many options. You can
Speaker 3: bet on the top New Zealander. You can bet on
Speaker 3: the top Australian, the top so ofth African, the top
Speaker 3: Japanese player. You can go nationalities, you can group them together.
Speaker 3: They're yeah, the new TB app You can go massive,
Speaker 3: deep dive on the options when it comes to go,
Speaker 3: which I never knew existed.
Speaker 1: No, I love that and I'd love for the TB
Speaker 1: to open up a few more like guess who type markets,
Speaker 1: like any ball player to finish top forty or yeah.
Speaker 4: Those kinds of things.
Speaker 1: Any any man with a mustache to make the cat
Speaker 1: on detail or whatever.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'd love for them to lean into that kind
Speaker 4: of stuff.
Speaker 1: I suppose it's hard to put those markets together because
Speaker 1: what does qualify a mustache? But anyway, that's our part.
Speaker 1: I can't believe it's eight dollars for him to make forty.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, winning winning a British Open last year. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: But I mean look here, I don't think he's I
Speaker 3: don't know if he's made the cut a few of
Speaker 3: the last few events, so I left to play out
Speaker 3: of his skin. I don't know if I have you
Speaker 3: watched any of the social media of the players practicing
Speaker 3: out of the bunkers there, No, they're like about two
Speaker 3: meters high. There's one where I think it's deshambo Is
Speaker 3: practicing getting out from being at the base of a
Speaker 3: two meter just vertical bunker and him getting it out,
Speaker 3: I'd just I'd hit it the other way well back.
Speaker 4: Onto the well.
Speaker 1: I thought, you mean, you're almost better facing away from
Speaker 1: the bunker and trying to hit it back up over
Speaker 1: your own head.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was.
Speaker 3: It's intense. It's intense. And is that remember that famous
Speaker 3: Michael Campbell shot? I think at St. Andrews, did you
Speaker 3: managed to get out of one of those kind of
Speaker 3: two meter bunkers? I think I'll be up all night.
Speaker 1: The gap between the professional golfer and the amateur goal
Speaker 1: or like just the hack golfer is so ridiculous because
Speaker 1: I've always said that, you know, I could play back
Speaker 1: and forth along rugby field and I'd shoot the same
Speaker 1: as if I went around, you know, your local local course.
Speaker 1: The hard part is not negotiating the courses, negotiating my
Speaker 1: horrible swing. And so then for these guys to make
Speaker 1: it interesting to have to put two meter bunkers in
Speaker 1: front of them is fucking It's unrelatable. I honestly, I
Speaker 1: think if you put me in one of those, I'd
Speaker 1: never get out. If it was like if you were like,
Speaker 1: you're in the bunker, you can't go back out, you
Speaker 1: have to go over the wall. I think i'd I
Speaker 1: think I'd die of old age before I got out
Speaker 1: of there.
Speaker 3: That had a good challenge. Then let's find a golf
Speaker 3: course that has a bunker as steep as one of those. Yeah,
Speaker 3: and sit you at the bottom of it, and we'll
Speaker 3: put a time laps camera on you and see how
Speaker 3: long it takes you to get out.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, we need something to happen, something that I'm
Speaker 1: racing against. I honestly think if a pro started off
Speaker 1: the first t he could probably finish his round before
Speaker 1: I got out of the bunker.
Speaker 3: And you're on the eighteenth and I'm on.
Speaker 1: The eighteenth in the bunker, and all I have to
Speaker 1: do is get out and I don't even have to.
Speaker 4: Yeah, would it be strokes?
Speaker 1: So I've basically got seventy shots to try and get
Speaker 1: out of this bunker before before he comes around and
Speaker 1: tells me up.
Speaker 4: That would be quite a good, quite a good wed challenge.
Speaker 3: All right, there would be good.
Speaker 1: We'll try and tee that one up. All right, let's
Speaker 1: take one last break. When we come back, we'll hit
Speaker 1: you with Yours Please.
Speaker 2: Yours Please, brought to you by Leader.
Speaker 1: Your chance to get involved in the show by pressing
Speaker 1: the microphone button in the bottom right hand corner of
Speaker 1: your iHeartRadio app just like this caller has call of
Speaker 1: Yours Please.
Speaker 3: Tellers, it's almost three thirty in the harbor and there's
Speaker 3: no daily agenda for the seventeenth of July twenty twenty four.
Speaker 6: Is it just because my eyes on the lake shift
Speaker 6: just put on.
Speaker 2: A double shift backbone.
Speaker 1: It's only the state of origin.
Speaker 3: Come on, I need someone to listen to.
Speaker 4: Get behind.
Speaker 1: I like that, and I'm sorry we kept you waiting here.
Speaker 1: It was a little bit later than usual yesterday. We
Speaker 1: had a few things to juggle around. We wanted to
Speaker 1: go and get down to the cricket thing yesterday where
Speaker 1: they launched the Summer of Cricket because we wanted to
Speaker 1: know what the schedule was yep, before that, and then
Speaker 1: also we had to line up with Tom from Hello Sport.
Speaker 1: But good to know it's a good problem to have
Speaker 1: that people are hanging out and waiting for their agenda podcast,
Speaker 1: because there'd be nothing worse than not putting one out
Speaker 1: one day and no and gave a shit.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was just there would be disheartening. Yeah, So yeah,
Speaker 3: thank you, thank you for your service, appreciate the feedback.
Speaker 1: And again today it'll be a little bit later, but
Speaker 1: again it's just because we wanted to talk about the
Speaker 1: All Blacks team. So yeah, it's a wait for that, but.
Speaker 4: It'll be on time tomorrow. Trust me.
Speaker 1: We've taken your feedback on board one last caller here.
Speaker 1: We only got the two this afternoon.
Speaker 6: Call it yours please, Hey boys, I'm glad he runs
Speaker 6: on the fox out Kennedy bandwagon. I've been on the
Speaker 6: fucking fox out Kenry bandwagon for a long time now.
Speaker 6: I'm at nae Bro East Coast supporter and a hit
Speaker 6: balling point for me last year when South Canterbury arrogantly
Speaker 6: turned their backs on the East Coast hacker in the
Speaker 6: semi final big standoff, and then Na's Bro East Coast
Speaker 6: nearly got on the ship for fucking just going over
Speaker 6: the ten medal line. Cultural protocols suggest never turned you
Speaker 6: back on a hacker, mate.
Speaker 4: I I don't really have a memory of this.
Speaker 1: I did look it up this morning, not only for
Speaker 1: I can find is of two very heated huckers going
Speaker 1: back and forth at each other. I might have been
Speaker 1: watching a lot of the wrong game. This one was
Speaker 1: at Pleasant Points, home game for South Canary South Canterbury
Speaker 1: versus MPEC, not to Always Coast is I think forgive
Speaker 1: me if I'm wrong, but I think it is the
Speaker 1: longest distance traveled for a rugby game in the country
Speaker 1: because there's no airport near either of those teams. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so South Canerbury have to drive to christ Church which
Speaker 1: is three hours, then fly fuck probably to Wellington, and
Speaker 1: then it's probably another like eight hour bus trip over
Speaker 1: to the East Coast, so it is like it's brutal.
Speaker 1: And then you know, obviously the same the other way back.
Speaker 1: And then obviously, as he mentioned, there's a few cultural differences,
Speaker 1: you know, a lot more seafood banging around the MPEC region.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I didn't. I was wondering the start of that message.
Speaker 3: I was like, what what's the beef? What kind of
Speaker 3: beef of East Coast? Got with any? It out quite clearly.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well look, thankfully, and this is the great thing
Speaker 1: about sport.
Speaker 4: There's always another chance, and there will be another chance.
Speaker 1: This season after a grueling bus trip from one of
Speaker 1: the two teams, you know, to set things straight, get
Speaker 1: your vengeance. Unfortunately, no one's had their vengeance over South
Speaker 1: Canterbury and quite some time.
Speaker 4: But this could be your chance for Nazi's coast.
Speaker 1: But at least at least we know we've got one
Speaker 1: one order already of the Fox South Canterbury Social Jersey.
Speaker 3: I was about to say, and it sounds like he
Speaker 3: did quite a few sales for us. Maybe we can
Speaker 3: start up like a kind of Tupperware franchise thing where
Speaker 3: you know, we can give him the sub franchise to
Speaker 3: East Coast Nazi Pudou and he can just farm out
Speaker 3: all the Fox South Canterbury merch could be there could
Speaker 3: be a way to go. I think a pyramid Fox
Speaker 3: South Canterbury scheme is our way to red to Richards.
Speaker 1: I think multi level marketing lane. We wouldn't be involved
Speaker 1: in a pyramid scheme.
Speaker 3: You know, let's just call it what it is.
Speaker 4: I did try and set up.
Speaker 1: When I was working in promos Hadaky. I tried to
Speaker 1: set up the Haidaky pyramid scheme, which was basically like
Speaker 1: it was a prize that you won, but you won
Speaker 1: a prize for every other person that you recruited to
Speaker 1: listen to Radio Hadarky.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah.
Speaker 1: I think where pyramid schemes fall apart as someone crutched
Speaker 1: the numbers. It's like you could only ever have like
Speaker 1: one hundred levels to it, and then you've got every
Speaker 1: person in the world on your pyramid.
Speaker 4: Scheme. You know, so financially it doesn't quite add up.
Speaker 1: I'll have to do a bit more research into the
Speaker 1: to the.
Speaker 4: Numbers of a pyramid scheme.
Speaker 1: But perhaps maybe a Ponzi scheme might be a bit
Speaker 1: closer to what we need to be doing.
Speaker 3: But anyway, yeah, Ponzi sounds six here as well.
Speaker 1: Ponzi sounds very sexy. I worked on a man on
Speaker 1: home to detention to explained Ponzi schemes to me.
Speaker 4: On a dairy farm. He explained to me how I
Speaker 4: could run a Ponzi scheme university. He had.
Speaker 1: It was on the ankle bracelet on his leg. We're
Speaker 1: on a dairy farm. We only had one motorbike, and
Speaker 1: so if the cowds are in the back paddock, he
Speaker 1: would drive me on the back of the motorbike until
Speaker 1: his ankles started beeping. Then I'd have to jump off
Speaker 1: and walk the rest of the way to bring the
Speaker 1: cows in, which on a thirty fucking four degree South
Speaker 1: Canterbury day is brutal.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, well, I played cricket. The Last Man stands
Speaker 3: with a gentleman and the something I have told you
Speaker 3: in the domain, and he was fielding at gully and
Speaker 3: he had long pants on and we didn't see the
Speaker 3: fact he was wearing an ankle bracelet and someone carved
Speaker 3: it through gully and it slammed into his ankle and
Speaker 3: he went to the ground and then got up and
Speaker 3: just ran to the car and took off, and we
Speaker 3: were like, what's going on there, and he goes, oh,
Speaker 3: the ball snapped his ankle bracelet off. It hit side
Speaker 3: and snapped it, so it was going off, so it
Speaker 3: presumed he tried to detach it. So he had to
Speaker 3: report to his parole off the asap, so they only
Speaker 3: played with seven players for the rest of the There
Speaker 3: was bits of bits of an ankle bracelet all over
Speaker 3: the outfield.
Speaker 1: I thought you were going to say that he just
Speaker 1: lived over the back fence so he could only field
Speaker 1: at gully.
Speaker 4: He couldn't go around to it.
Speaker 3: It would be quite funny.
Speaker 4: Couldn't go out of the side.
Speaker 3: So as soon as he went to the to the
Speaker 3: andrew it started beeping.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it really dictates the way you get a bowl,
Speaker 1: because you got one. That guy stuck on home attention
Speaker 1: in the cal corner. Anyway, I reckon, it's about time
Speaker 1: for you to go and check in with your parole officer, and.
Speaker 3: I've got my court appearance tomorrow, so Matt Heath is
Speaker 3: going to be on the Agenda tomorrow and I'll be back.
Speaker 3: I think I've been clear to give given clearance to
Speaker 3: come out of witness protection this weekend, so I'll be
Speaker 3: back with you in the studio on Monday, brilliant.
Speaker 4: Look forward to it.
Speaker 1: Otherwise, we'll see tomorrow for another episode of the Agenda Podcast.
