1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:01,560
Speaker 1: Paul Allison, Good morning.

2
00:00:01,880 --> 00:00:04,560
Speaker 2: Like many, I'm sure we can got some planned for you.

3
00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:06,640
Speaker 1: Oh, it's a big one. We're down at the AMP

4
00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:09,239
Speaker 1: show Grounds. Not for rugby. Actually probably a good thing.

5
00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:10,959
Speaker 1: It's not rugby season at the moment because that turf's

6
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:13,560
Speaker 1: going to be pretty well compacted by Sunday. But we're

7
00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:15,760
Speaker 1: doing laps for the Relay for Life.

8
00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:18,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a big event. I've seen it in action

9
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:21,239
Speaker 2: in different places around the country and it can be

10
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:23,880
Speaker 2: quite successful. It really brings the community together, doesn't it.

11
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:27,000
Speaker 1: Absolutely well. I mean testament to that is the over

12
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 1: one hundred and forty thousand dollars that's been raised so far,

13
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:33,479
Speaker 1: plenty more to come from tomorrow. I'm pretty confident. We

14
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,000
Speaker 1: set an ambitious goal of one hundred and seventy five

15
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:39,360
Speaker 1: grand I'm going to sort of take a punt here

16
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:41,519
Speaker 1: and say that we're probably on track to breach that.

17
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:46,040
Speaker 2: Well, you know, with a breakfast announcer salary, I'm sure

18
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 2: you can continue significantly.

19
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:51,319
Speaker 1: Let's get Jamie to dig deep for it, maybe hit

20
00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:54,480
Speaker 1: him up. Hey, so yeah, so I'm getting physical for that.

21
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 1: Our Crusaders, well, they got pretty physical against the Raiders

22
00:00:57,880 --> 00:00:59,640
Speaker 1: last week as a result. We've lost a couple of

23
00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:02,720
Speaker 1: key players, but still the tab you're picking us is

24
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,320
Speaker 1: very heavy favorites again small Onna pacificate tomorrow.

25
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:08,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, Maryana Pacifica is a team under pressure this year.

26
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:12,120
Speaker 2: They've already struggled after that very first round and I

27
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:15,839
Speaker 2: would expect the Crusaders interesting Cooper Grant and that number

28
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,479
Speaker 2: ten position. This is at Aubany tomorrow night at seven

29
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:21,119
Speaker 2: oh five, which will be the fourth of the fifth

30
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 2: games in this round of Super Rugby. I think the

31
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 2: Crusaders will be too good. They were a little bit

32
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:28,680
Speaker 2: rusty last week, but they got the job done. They

33
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 2: just got to be a little bit mindful of the

34
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 2: yellow cards which they're starting to stack up now in

35
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 2: Super Rugby. I'm in action tonight, not playing wise, but

36
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,760
Speaker 2: commentating wise for the Hiddlers against the Hurricanes in the

37
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 2: need and under the roof seven over five. Yeah, it

38
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:45,200
Speaker 2: will be good the Hurricanes, as we know, leading first

39
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 2: equals to Brumbies and the Blues. But they've got a

40
00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 2: game in hand and they're also now looking for ten ten.

41
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 2: I'll say that once more ten in a row against

42
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 2: the Highlanders. So let's see what happens in that one.

43
00:01:56,520 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 2: That's followed immediately after that tonight by the Brumbies against

44
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 2: the Chiefs. This is a milestone game for James Slippers

45
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 2: two hundred and third Super Rugby match, which will eclipse

46
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 2: the record previously held by White Crockett. So that'll be

47
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 2: an interesting one. I think the Chiefs might be too good,

48
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 2: but yeah, the Brumbies at home are always a difficult proposition.

49
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:18,799
Speaker 2: And talking about being at home, tomorrow afternoon at four

50
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 2: thirty five, it's the Fiji and Drewer. They are in

51
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,120
Speaker 2: bar last time they played at home. Now they are

52
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 2: in Latoka, which is twenty k up the road against

53
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,520
Speaker 2: the Reds four thirty five tomorrow afternoon. You talked about

54
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:34,079
Speaker 2: Molana pacifica that's the Crusader's match Aubany seven oh five.

55
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 2: And then wrapping up this round is the war Retars

56
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 2: against the Blues. The Waratars at home. That's nine thirty

57
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 2: five tomorrow. Blues will have to be careful. They probably

58
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 2: will go into this match as favorites, but the war

59
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 2: Retars at home can be a difficult proposition. And as

60
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,680
Speaker 2: we know so far in Super Rugby Pacific twenty twenty six,

61
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,519
Speaker 2: any team is just about beating any team on their day,

62
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 2: and so yeah, there's no easy matches, although I think

63
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,200
Speaker 2: the best one for me if you're going to if

64
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 2: they put your house on it, don't even try because

65
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,640
Speaker 2: I think the Crusader's playing a dollar one. But they

66
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 2: are the warm favorites against Moanna pacifica clear red red

67
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 2: hot cricket Plinkett Shield action Day three today of the

68
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:18,080
Speaker 2: Penultant Penultlemate round. Can it be in a good position

69
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,840
Speaker 2: against CD at rangy Aura. We've got five teams that

70
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 2: are still very much in contention to win the Planket Shield.

71
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,519
Speaker 2: Northern Districts against the Otago Northern District's probably in the

72
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 2: hot seat there and then Auckland against Wellington. Well Wellington's

73
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 2: the only team that really are out of contention, so

74
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 2: that's pretty critical. With one more full round to go

75
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 2: Eden Park. Tonight, it's New Zealand against South Africa and

76
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 2: the third of the T twenties Women's get underway this

77
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 2: afternoon two forty five, the first ball Bowl seven fifteen

78
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 2: for the men and they do it all over again

79
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 2: on Sunday in Wellington, same sort of time zone, So yeah,

80
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 2: two more doubleheaders for New Zealand versus South Africa and

81
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 2: that T twenty series warry is against the Knights. Now,

82
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 2: I'm not sure where you're going on this one. This

83
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:06,080
Speaker 2: is at five o'clock. It's tomorrow, isn't it.

84
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 1: That's one?

85
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, five o'clock tomorrow, both unbeaten teams, two out of two.

86
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 2: I don't think too many people would have expected the

87
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 2: Warriors to start the way that they have. Loo. Absolutely,

88
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 2: it's gonna be there year, It's going to be there. Yeah.

89
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:26,600
Speaker 2: How many years have we been saying that? One? For well?

90
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 2: I started? Well? Can they make it three in a row?

91
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:33,559
Speaker 2: Ta B have installed them as favorites on their betting ranks,

92
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,919
Speaker 2: although that's always a pretty worrying simon. They do that

93
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 2: because that's when they tend to sort of trip at

94
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 2: the hurdle. But the Warriors against the Night's five o'clock tomorrow,

95
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 2: Luke Hanson and that number fivotal number six position for him.

96
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 2: The A League gets underway again tomorrow Mounts Smart and

97
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 2: Action Auckland in second place against MacArthur who are eighth placed.

98
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,640
Speaker 2: And then that's five o'clock tomorrow. It's followed by the

99
00:04:56,640 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 2: Brisbane Roar against the Wellington Phoenix. That's the Men the women.

100
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,480
Speaker 2: They are in action tonight at nine o'clock against Sydney.

101
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,479
Speaker 2: Sydney's in eleventh place, the Wellington Women's Phoenix team in

102
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:09,840
Speaker 2: the third place, so if they can get a win there,

103
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 2: that already cement them for the playoffs, which isn't too

104
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:16,039
Speaker 2: far away. And in the World Athletic Indoor Championships, New

105
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 2: Zealand's got a team of thirteen strong. This is in Poland,

106
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:20,920
Speaker 2: in the place I can't even pronounce his name is

107
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:24,599
Speaker 2: The twenty twenty first edition gets underway tonight or World

108
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:28,080
Speaker 2: New Zealand time in the early hours of tomorrow morning.

109
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:32,720
Speaker 2: And there is six hundred and seventy four athletes from

110
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 2: one hundred and eighteen different federations or nations around the

111
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 2: world over twenty six events. We've got Tom Walsh attempting

112
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:44,039
Speaker 2: to get his seventh his seventh World Indoor Championship medal.

113
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 2: He's got three goals won silver and two bronze. He's

114
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 2: in the shot put. As we know, there's a thirteen

115
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 2: strong New Zealand team with people like some of Jordi Beemish,

116
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 2: who's the current World Indoor champion, Tom Walsh, Eliza McCartney,

117
00:05:57,400 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 2: Zowey hobbs. So we've got a pretty good side to see.

118
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,599
Speaker 2: How we get that's in Poland, gets under way early

119
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,279
Speaker 2: hours of tomorrow morning and then goes over the course

120
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:07,720
Speaker 2: of the weekend. All that supporting action for you
