Speaker 2: The Agenda Podcast, the home of Sporting Nonsense and clap
Speaker 2: Trap brought to you my next sport Ultra A.
Speaker 1: Couple of points to get to to pull you behind
Speaker 1: the curtain to start the podcast. We gave the you
Speaker 1: to it.
Speaker 3: Oh, I know, but you did. I gave the you away.
Speaker 3: I passed. I handed him over the keys. He's a
Speaker 3: great New Zealander though, drove down from Fay pick it
Speaker 3: up from Auckland. He had one of the most magnificent
Speaker 3: shampooed mullets. You know. It's one of those ones that's
Speaker 3: long and luscious and yeah, ads is a beautiful thing.
Speaker 3: And I felt like the ninety eight Ford Falcon you
Speaker 3: has gone to a better place.
Speaker 1: At win cheap wind cheap, it went for about twelve grand. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and I know that someone's going to listen to this
Speaker 1: and go O would have paid more than that for that. Well,
Speaker 1: you had your chance, we told you all about it.
Speaker 3: Handed him over is five grands worth of goodies.
Speaker 1: Oh my god.
Speaker 3: He was stoked the fact that I was dressed up
Speaker 3: he had to toe like Broke Back Mountain put him
Speaker 3: off a little bit. Yeah, because we had a photo
Speaker 3: shoot for something we're going to have to reveal in
Speaker 3: twenty five Yes, evolving cowboys, Yes, which I think the
Speaker 3: listeners will be pretty excited about.
Speaker 1: Yes.
Speaker 3: So yeah, it's a little that's what you call tease.
Speaker 3: Yeah till next year. Yeah, but no, it was it
Speaker 3: was the money went directly into the November all, every
Speaker 3: last cent of it. We didn't even see the money.
Speaker 3: We just gave them the November account.
Speaker 1: That was a taxi shoe. Yeah, it was dexter shoe.
Speaker 1: We didn't want to skim any of the top.
Speaker 3: No, we didn't want to be accused of anything.
Speaker 4: No.
Speaker 3: I went straight in there and yet farewell, you were
Speaker 3: you've gone through in your first stage of grief?
Speaker 1: What's on denial? Yeah? Then anger? Yeah? No no, no, yeah,
Speaker 1: I've been through denial then anger. Then what's what's the next?
Speaker 3: Your resentment as well? You're quite resent You're quite resentful.
Speaker 3: You were like, do you want to come and give
Speaker 3: this sayhi, argument enough, I hate the car, I hate him.
Speaker 1: Stages of grief. I'll look them up there. Shive denial.
Speaker 1: That was the first one. I went straight into. Denial
Speaker 1: was like we came out of the meeting where I said, well, look,
Speaker 1: if we're going to sell the let's sell the URT.
Speaker 1: And then I came out of the meeting. I was like, no,
Speaker 1: I didn't. I didn't say that we're not selling the anger.
Speaker 1: Then I was angry first of all that everyone else
Speaker 1: for even coming up the idea. Secondly with myself bargaining.
Speaker 1: That was when I was running the bidding up on
Speaker 1: the ute. That was bargaining. I was bargaining with myself.
Speaker 1: I was bargaining with my partner. I was bargaining with
Speaker 1: anyone else who was placing a bit a bid. Rather depression,
Speaker 1: which I think is where I'm at now. I'm not
Speaker 1: at acceptance yet, and the way I've gone about it
Speaker 1: as I've gone it's like when you see you make
Speaker 1: go through a breakup, Well, when you go through a
Speaker 1: breakap yourself. It's way easier to be dumped than it
Speaker 1: is to dump someone. I think because you can blame them,
Speaker 1: make them the bad guy, if they cheated or whatever
Speaker 1: it was that they did, then you can be like
Speaker 1: that piece of shit I hate them. That's why. Worse
Speaker 1: than being like, oh, actually all right, you need something
Speaker 1: to make them the villain, and so I've just gone
Speaker 1: fuck that guy. They bought that. You shout out to him,
Speaker 1: love you, but.
Speaker 3: But you just don't want to meet him. Yeah, we'll
Speaker 3: see him, no, okay.
Speaker 1: Someone asked me if I wanted to drive the ud
Speaker 1: Hume the other day. I said no, No, I threw
Speaker 1: the keys onto Lawren's desk because I don't even want
Speaker 1: to see them again.
Speaker 3: Well good, because for the past what three months, even
Speaker 3: since we announced we were going to sell it, I've
Speaker 3: been terrified that either you or Joe Jurry, we're going
Speaker 3: to put it into a fence post.
Speaker 1: So has Joe, so he stopped driving it me. I
Speaker 1: could that outside the Warriors part the other day he
Speaker 1: right in front of Luke Kemy's esail. The whole thing.
Speaker 1: I'm in the dog box, and really it's one of
Speaker 1: the more bizarre dog boxes I've ever been in. You
Speaker 1: might relate to this. I don't know.
Speaker 3: I've been in a few.
Speaker 1: I know you've been in a fair few, but this
Speaker 1: is one of the few that actually one of the
Speaker 1: fear few that doesn't revolve or have anything to do
Speaker 1: with alcohol or being out. She was actually with me
Speaker 1: the whole time. Yesterday after work, she had a We
Speaker 1: went shopping for her secrets into a thing. So we'll
Speaker 1: find ourselves a work one.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, not your personal one when you were here.
Speaker 1: No, no, no, So we find ourselves at the mall.
Speaker 1: Actually wasn't too bad to be fear like, I know,
Speaker 1: I was preparing for this is going to be a
Speaker 1: shit show. Actually wasn't too bad. We get into the
Speaker 1: mall last week when we played cricket. Was that last
Speaker 1: week week before?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Whatever? When we played cricket, I dropped my glasses and
Speaker 1: stood on them and I bent them, and so I
Speaker 1: was like, look, while she's shopping, I'm going to take
Speaker 1: them into one of these glasses shops and see if
Speaker 1: they can straighten them out. Drop them off, leave ten minutes,
Speaker 1: come back. She's standing there, the girl behind the counter.
Speaker 1: She goes, oh, hey, yeah, straighten them out, try them on.
Speaker 1: And I tried them on. I was like, yeah, they're perfect,
Speaker 1: right deal. Actually, then she goes, do you want this case?
Speaker 1: Because I noticed you didn't have a case to them.
Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, how much do you want for
Speaker 1: the case. She's like, I'm feeling generous today. And then
Speaker 1: she and then I said, well, how much to are
Speaker 1: you for the service on the glass or what? She goes,
Speaker 1: no charge, no charge, and then gave me put the
Speaker 1: glasses in the case, gave me the case. I'll walk back,
Speaker 1: show the message. She goes, Oh, who's this special to
Speaker 1: give you a case and and a bloody free glasses.
Speaker 3: I love how you know no one's allowed to be
Speaker 3: nice to you. There's always an ulterior mode. What did
Speaker 3: you do? What did you leave it at number in
Speaker 3: the glasses case for you?
Speaker 1: As well? Did she lifted perfume on the glasses? I
Speaker 1: can smell it still remains with me. So I'm in
Speaker 1: the dog box for something I didn't even realize I
Speaker 1: was going to be.
Speaker 3: That's the Christmas spirit, right, there's the Christmas The weirdest
Speaker 3: thing you've gotten in the dog box?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 3: Fuck mine? Not always just just mindful, like that mindless
Speaker 3: stuff that I'd presume that there was a presumption that
Speaker 3: I was supposed to do something and I had no
Speaker 3: idea I was supposed to do it. That's the probably
Speaker 3: the most the kind of ones that I'm most confused.
Speaker 3: I was like, well, no one told me which stage, Like, well,
Speaker 3: you're made sense of course, Why wouldn't wy wouldn't you
Speaker 3: do that? Why wouldn't you pick the kids up if
Speaker 3: you come back? I well, I didn't know they would
Speaker 3: hear it.
Speaker 1: They look at the fruge.
Speaker 3: She was like, yeah, but I didn't.
Speaker 1: It's a lot going on.
Speaker 3: That's those kind of ones that I get.
Speaker 1: And then there's the obvious like coming home, waking up
Speaker 1: on the couch, that kind of stuff.
Speaker 3: That's that's kind of that's part and parcel.
Speaker 1: That's understandable. Yeah, but the yeah, didn't have given a
Speaker 1: free glasses case on the the dog box.
Speaker 3: Nah, well that's yeah, that's she did. She go and
Speaker 3: fuck her up?
Speaker 1: Show me what shop you want to do? Which one
Speaker 1: is it?
Speaker 3: You think she would have done the same defense as
Speaker 3: the guy in the phone mobile phone repair shop who
Speaker 3: just possim possim.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I think I think she might have. No,
Speaker 1: she might have been made of sterner stuff. Cricket Senna
Speaker 1: has been recalled into the side, into the squad. The squad.
Speaker 1: We don't know if he's going to play. You don't
Speaker 1: know the line up until basically an hour before.
Speaker 3: Yeah, even then I think on the morning they usually
Speaker 3: announced that we mentioned it yesterday that he was going
Speaker 3: to probably come in because it turns a bit more
Speaker 3: in the basin. But the argument is is it Southy
Speaker 3: or is it Smith? Yeah, has to step out to
Speaker 3: bring him in or a.
Speaker 1: Carby Phillips because we need betting.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and he played pretty well in the first Test.
Speaker 3: I don't think I'm apart from the drop catches. Yeah,
Speaker 3: And you've got the likes of Young like do you
Speaker 3: bring young in? But who do you bring him in?
Speaker 5: Forward?
Speaker 3: Do you bring him for Conway? Do you replace Blundell?
Speaker 4: Like?
Speaker 3: I don't think they're going to do change a lot.
Speaker 3: This is they're always being pretty conservative this team.
Speaker 1: What I don't understand about the cricket thing is we've
Speaker 1: seen NRL do such a good job of the teamless thing.
Speaker 1: And obviously they've put their squad out today. That's why
Speaker 1: we're talking about it. Why don't we make them announce
Speaker 1: their team a few days earlier and lock it in.
Speaker 3: I guess it's a lot to do with the conditions,
Speaker 3: and I mean not so much in New Zeland really,
Speaker 3: the conditions, the weather forecast, whatever, you know, if it's
Speaker 3: going to need to look at the pitch on the
Speaker 3: morning of the.
Speaker 1: Test and then decide if you take your spinners or not.
Speaker 3: I think you're pretty set the day before, if you've
Speaker 3: trained at the ground you're like, Okay, well we're going
Speaker 3: to play.
Speaker 1: This looks like going to take turn or yeah. But
Speaker 1: it's just a very.
Speaker 3: Cricket thing that you don't announce it till the day.
Speaker 3: It depends on the conditions.
Speaker 1: But wouldn't it be great if we're like, Will Young's
Speaker 1: back today, you know, and the team we're like, oh shit,
Speaker 1: we know who's going to be in there.
Speaker 3: They must know. They must I mean, they don't surprise
Speaker 3: the team on the morning. No, so the team must
Speaker 3: know the day at least the day before.
Speaker 1: You'd have a fear Inklan Yeah, yeah, because you would
Speaker 1: not want to know if you were center, like have
Speaker 1: you brought me in here?
Speaker 5: Like?
Speaker 1: Am I actually going to play? Or how's this going
Speaker 1: to go?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: What was the point of bringing him in? Us? Guess again,
Speaker 3: it guess it depends on the conditions when they get
Speaker 3: to Wellington. If they should a ready there, I guess Yeah,
Speaker 3: what is that Tuesday starts on Friday?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. That's always been an interesting one
Speaker 1: to me that every other sport has decided to start
Speaker 1: naming teams a couple of days ahead of time. And
Speaker 1: I think that's because it gives people something to talk about.
Speaker 3: But I guess does the teams have to name it
Speaker 3: exactly the same time though? Don't they? Because otherwise, Yeah,
Speaker 3: you see one team name three spinners and you're like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 3: they're saying, we don't you go to name three spinners
Speaker 3: as well?
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right. And the other thing that's been happening
Speaker 1: more and more in the NRL because they make them
Speaker 1: submit their preliminary team list and then they lock them
Speaker 1: in like on the day before. But what's been happening
Speaker 1: is teams will name a team knowing that they're going
Speaker 1: to swap a dude last minute. The Warriors were doing
Speaker 1: it a lot, particularly if there's a guy that's going
Speaker 1: to debut.
Speaker 3: Didn't they like seventeenth man? What was that eighteen eighteenth?
Speaker 1: Yeah, And so they'll often name a dude who's going
Speaker 1: to debut at like eighteenth man, even like nineteenth and
Speaker 1: then be like, surprise, he's actually going to start. We
Speaker 1: just want the media asking him questions this week so
Speaker 1: we didn't name him in the team. But yeah, it's
Speaker 1: just the whole other thing. I mean selfishly, as a
Speaker 1: sports broadcast.
Speaker 3: You just need some content, midweek content, just.
Speaker 1: Another thing to talk about on a Tuesday. Yeah, one
Speaker 1: hundred percent. All right, I have found an article explaining
Speaker 1: how we can still win the Cricket World Cup. I'm
Speaker 1: going to take a break. Everyone, take a deep breath,
Speaker 1: and then I'm going to explain to you how we
Speaker 1: can still win the World Test Championship.
Speaker 3: Hey, before we go to the break, Maniah the ACC,
Speaker 3: We've created a daily cricket quiz for all you cricket
Speaker 3: heads throughout the entire England tour. You can test your
Speaker 3: knowledge with a daily quiz on the iHeartRadio ap. Every
Speaker 3: time you get a question right, you get an extra
Speaker 3: entry into the weekly draw to win a sign New
Speaker 3: Zealand black Caps Test shirt and a double pass to
Speaker 3: any match during the summer of cricket. Just text quiz
Speaker 3: to sign up for the Cricket Mind Quiz. Now do
Speaker 3: it now, you cricket heads.
Speaker 1: Somebody else did the work here, I'm just reading it.
Speaker 1: But this is how the Black Caps can still qualify
Speaker 1: for the World twenty twenty five World Test Championship.
Speaker 3: If is this when you need the wall of madness,
Speaker 3: you need like pins and bits of wool and will
Speaker 3: go into pictures.
Speaker 1: Yes, okay, yeah, one hundred percent. So here's what we
Speaker 1: need to do. All we need to do is beat
Speaker 1: England and Wellington and Hamilton. Simple, that's all we can control. Yes,
Speaker 1: then we need three of the following things to happen.
Speaker 3: They all need to happen.
Speaker 1: Three of these four things need to happen. So, because
Speaker 1: there's four other teams around us India to win no
Speaker 1: more than one of their four remaining tests, which are
Speaker 1: all against Australia. Oh, that's doable. That is doable. If
Speaker 1: they If they don't win one but they draw three,
Speaker 1: we're out. South Africa need to win no more than
Speaker 1: one of their three remaining tests, which is one at
Speaker 1: home versus Sri Lanka and two versus Pakistan. They can
Speaker 1: only win one of those.
Speaker 3: Oh and they're both at home. Yeah, and they just
Speaker 3: got Sri Lanka out for forty two or something.
Speaker 1: Yes, they did. That's it.
Speaker 3: That's that that can we cross that one up? That's
Speaker 3: not gonna happen.
Speaker 1: Okay, so two. Yeah, the other thing is two draws,
Speaker 1: will do us out of that one as well. Okay,
Speaker 1: so that's not gonna happen.
Speaker 3: I think South Africa will hump Sri Lanka. Well yeah,
Speaker 3: and the next one, which is done, we're.
Speaker 1: Done, well they just well then they still need to
Speaker 1: be Pakistan at least once. Could Pakistan whitewash them? No, okay,
Speaker 1: so we'll cross that one out. This is where it
Speaker 1: becomes problematic because Australia then need to win no more
Speaker 1: and three of their six remaining tests, four of them
Speaker 1: against India, two against Sri Lanka. So the problem is
Speaker 1: there that if they beat India, then they become the
Speaker 1: one that jumps us. But if India beats them, then
Speaker 1: India becomes the one that jumps us. So India win
Speaker 1: no more than three of their six remaining tests. Australia Australia, sorry, yes,
Speaker 1: that could happen.
Speaker 3: That could happen because they're playing Sri Lanka away and
Speaker 3: that has been a graveyard for quite a few teams,
Speaker 3: including US over in Sri Lanka. I think even England
Speaker 3: might have struggled over there as well. So it's possibility,
Speaker 3: especially the way they're playing at the moment.
Speaker 1: The problem is we don't want Tri Lanka to beat
Speaker 1: them two times. Because of Sri Lanka win two of
Speaker 1: their three remaining tests, one against South Africa, two against Australia,
Speaker 1: then we're out as well. So we need three of
Speaker 1: these things to happen. If you're saying South Africa will not.
Speaker 3: Well, they'll win more than one of their three main tests,
Speaker 3: will win more than one.
Speaker 1: We crossed them out. We need India to win no
Speaker 1: more than one of.
Speaker 3: Their so it needs to happen. Serf can need to
Speaker 3: win more than one of their fests that that will happen. Yeah,
Speaker 3: so they're out. They can't.
Speaker 1: They can't win more than one of their three remaining tests.
Speaker 1: Are you following along at home? Threat?
Speaker 3: Look, they win no more than one of their Okay, yeah,
Speaker 3: pretty much, we just need to beat England and Hamilton
Speaker 3: and Wellington.
Speaker 1: Yes, that means we've won fifty seven percent of our
Speaker 1: available tests.
Speaker 3: And then we sit back and watch the house burned down.
Speaker 3: That's pretty much.
Speaker 1: It, basically, and there are four different ways that can
Speaker 1: burn down.
Speaker 3: Okay, So we try to say, is we're still a chance?
Speaker 1: We're still a chance. I think I know less about
Speaker 1: how we can make that happen than before I started
Speaker 1: reading that Augland FC are working with management at go
Speaker 1: Media Stadium in Penrose to open up the embankment at
Speaker 1: the northern end of the venue for extra fans this
Speaker 1: weekend and the derby match, the Dooby match against the
Speaker 1: Wellington Phoenix. And that is the end with the grass
Speaker 1: on it, opposite the Port end or the Cave Creek end.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's one of the steepest embankments in world world sport.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and they want to open that up so that
Speaker 1: the venue will be able to hold twenty six thousand,
Speaker 1: two hundred and fiftyfty three people, which is precisely one
Speaker 1: more than the current regular seed season record.
Speaker 3: This does not pass the sniff test. It's held by
Speaker 3: the Phoenix that could.
Speaker 1: This is just one of the somebody did a deep diver.
Speaker 1: I think it was a Herald reporter a couple of
Speaker 1: years ago on attendance numbers and at Eden Park, the
Speaker 1: attendance numbers always ended in one of two different digits, right, Like,
Speaker 1: what are the chances of that every single time? Let's
Speaker 1: say it was a seven and a two every single time.
Speaker 1: And so they confronted them with all of the stats
Speaker 1: and the spreadsheets and said what's going on here? And
Speaker 1: they were like, well, yeah, I mean, you know, people
Speaker 1: don't buy a ticket, or people buy tickets don't show
Speaker 1: up that it's in this seat, blah blah blah. So
Speaker 1: there's an element of estimation going on.
Speaker 3: I can tell you with hand on heart after working
Speaker 3: with FIFA and doing tournaments in the Middle East. Yeah,
Speaker 3: they required to put an attendance on the big screen.
Speaker 3: I think with about twenty minutes to go in the game.
Speaker 3: It's kind of like a FIFA thing. Yeah, And I
Speaker 3: can vividly remember being in the jock the Joint Operations
Speaker 3: Center and going how many reckon you pick here? And
Speaker 3: everyone go it's about fifteen thousand, I reckon And then
Speaker 3: they goes, oh, we need to put a number. I
Speaker 3: goes fifteen thousand, two hundred and sixty one. Yeah, and
Speaker 3: you go to go sweet, and then up on the
Speaker 3: screen we go to see the eight attendances.
Speaker 1: It was just tertabullshit. So that must have been why
Speaker 1: they were always coming up because whoever got asked that
Speaker 1: question would only come up with one of two numbers.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a total estimation. Yeah, Like I mean, we'd
Speaker 3: know how many tickets were sold like they would sell
Speaker 3: like we'd sell, say, for that game, twelve thousand seconds
Speaker 3: were sold. We'd assume there was a three thousand walk up.
Speaker 3: We'd look around the stadium and go, yeah, capacities twenty five,
Speaker 3: this looks like it's about eighteen. Look your fingers two
Speaker 3: hundred and twenty one.
Speaker 1: Well, it's like the Warriors, not last season, but the
Speaker 1: season before when they were going into the playoffs and
Speaker 1: there was articles coming out saying, are the Warriors going
Speaker 1: to be able to play a playoff game at home?
Speaker 1: Or will they have to move it to Eden Park
Speaker 1: Because the minimum attendance for a you know, a real
Speaker 1: playoff game is twenty five thousand. You have to have
Speaker 1: capacity of twenty five thousand. All of a sudden, the
Speaker 1: very next week, Mount Smart had a capacity of twenty
Speaker 1: five thousand and one. I think it was three. Actually,
Speaker 1: I think they were like, congratulations to you know, record
Speaker 1: breaking attenders. Twenty five thousand and three people are here today. Hmm,
Speaker 1: thank you.
Speaker 3: The problem with that embankment though, at Gohard Stadium is
Speaker 3: you can only.
Speaker 1: Sit at the top of it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because if you sit halfway down, you're just pulling
Speaker 3: your undies out of your ass the whole time because
Speaker 3: you can't gravity. Gravity's taking hold, your pants are staying
Speaker 3: where they are, and the body's moving down and you're
Speaker 3: constantly picking your pants out of your ass.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So if you are going at that end, I don't
Speaker 3: know if you can take some sort of cheer with you.
Speaker 3: They probably only you even take a cheer. And will they.
Speaker 1: Well, they're working to open up the embankment. I presume
Speaker 1: they might have some sort of seating arrangement.
Speaker 3: Now I just think it's just going to earn them bankman.
Speaker 3: Aren't you just sit there? You don't get You'll only
Speaker 3: get a ho and or so up there because it's
Speaker 3: so steep. The best use of it was that slide
Speaker 3: their head last time. Yeah, it was the best use
Speaker 3: to that into the stand.
Speaker 1: I mean kids are doing it anyway when it's raining
Speaker 1: this kids just sliding down that thing. So yeah, I
Speaker 1: guess all they're doing really is just selling tickets to it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because it's always been there. Yeah, Yeah, people are always
Speaker 1: set up there for some reason.
Speaker 3: Yes, I remember going there and sitting there and watching
Speaker 3: Warrior Is a few times actually, because it could be
Speaker 3: fun sitting up in Cave Creek.
Speaker 1: There's always kids playing a game a touch up and
Speaker 1: down that hill, which I find so interesting because interesting
Speaker 1: to watch because it's like you said, it's at grass Cliff.
Speaker 3: Roly Poly's is intense.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but like trying to play touch, you've got a
Speaker 1: massive advantage coming down the hill.
Speaker 3: We should maybe move the cheese roll there, the gloss
Speaker 3: of cheese roll. Move it to the movement to go hard. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I've been to the Glocester cheese right. I'm sure I
Speaker 3: told this story a million times before. But they because
Speaker 3: the council tried to ban it. Ambulances and policemen were
Speaker 3: told not to go up because it's an unsanctioned event.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so all they had in terms of safety was
Speaker 1: the local Glocester rugby team would stand at the base
Speaker 1: of the hill and stop people. Well, there was one
Speaker 1: prop I presume it was getting a little bit too
Speaker 1: trigger happy, and he was like gauging up dudes as
Speaker 1: they're coming down the hell and putting shots on and
Speaker 1: then if you broke your leg, which I reckon I
Speaker 1: would have seen about six broken legs or ankles, one
Speaker 1: of them would carry you into the town where they
Speaker 1: head set up a Trioche Center there for the ambulances,
Speaker 1: but I'm like.
Speaker 3: Well why not at that point, just came up to
Speaker 3: the hill also, Yeah, one of those things that's quite
Speaker 3: good in Europe. Maybe not in England, but mainly in Europe.
Speaker 3: If it has been a tradition for as long as
Speaker 3: people can remember, if it's an actual tradition, yeah, they
Speaker 3: never change it. That health and safety does not apply.
Speaker 3: Its grandfather didn't. Yeah, it's that's a rule, that's such
Speaker 3: a common sense rule that if it's always been here,
Speaker 3: then it will remain like that running of the bulls. Yeah,
Speaker 3: La Tomatina, even Beerfest to a good degree, it's always
Speaker 3: been there, and so any sort of health and safety
Speaker 3: or political correctness or anything is out the fucking window. Yeah,
Speaker 3: this is a and we'll always keep doing next to
Speaker 3: shut the fuck up.
Speaker 1: And I think the culture kind of figures itself out.
Speaker 1: Like when we were at beer Feist, I never saw
Speaker 1: anyone get told off. I'm sure it did happen, but.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I saw a few mainly Italian, badly behaved Italians
Speaker 3: get dragged.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I never even saw security. I didn't know
Speaker 1: unless I got kicked out with I was blackout. I
Speaker 1: don't remember.
Speaker 3: They are in the darkness. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: But everyone was fairly well, fairly well behaved.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, Like you said, I didn't see any fisty
Speaker 3: care like when you have one hundred thousand drunk people
Speaker 3: in one ear, he expect a couple, but part that
Speaker 3: one guy, Remember that one guy. Early in the morning,
Speaker 3: he bought a sandwich and fell backwards and fell off
Speaker 3: the step.
Speaker 1: Oh my god.
Speaker 3: Yes, his mates were just laughing their ass off and
Speaker 3: he was just flat on his back.
Speaker 1: He was pretending to be knocked out. Yeah, and it
Speaker 1: was done there throwing the gang signs, reaching up towards
Speaker 1: the heavens thing. I was like, this guy's did mates
Speaker 1: were just laughing, So here's fine. Lauri Daly's just been
Speaker 1: appointed to new South Wales coach and an attempt for
Speaker 1: rugby league to dominate the off season. This is Laurie
Speaker 1: Daily's second coming his new South Wales coach on a
Speaker 1: two year deal and it was announced on Monday, with
Speaker 1: Ballamy Craig Bellamy attached as chief advisor and selected alongside
Speaker 1: several other coaches from Michael McGuire's Blue set up. So
Speaker 1: bizarre turn of events. Apparently, what was what they were
Speaker 1: trying to do was get Craig Balamy to do State
Speaker 1: of Origin, who I believe has done it once before
Speaker 1: and I think lost all three games and is still
Speaker 1: hurt from that.
Speaker 3: So it's not so now he's just coming back as
Speaker 3: an advisor.
Speaker 1: So apparently Laurie Daley said, well, look, you're not going
Speaker 1: to get Craig Bellamy, but if you get me, I reckon,
Speaker 1: I can convince him to be one of my chief
Speaker 1: calling him chief advisor, my chief advisor. I love these
Speaker 1: What do you have to do to get to a
Speaker 1: position where you just get one of these made up
Speaker 1: jobs who actually don't do anything? Like head of rugby
Speaker 1: operations or.
Speaker 3: Head of rugby operations is a great one. Yeah, that's
Speaker 3: a real good one.
Speaker 1: Is that what Rezzie was for the yeah we're not
Speaker 1: jock n He wasn't allowed to be coached.
Speaker 3: But didn't he get banned for that?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Something he did came director operations.
Speaker 1: You're banned for a three hour stream of consciousness rant.
Speaker 1: They got uploaded onto YouTube. But then he was sitting
Speaker 1: up in the coach's box with the lights and the
Speaker 1: whole thing. But Steve Hanson's on one of those deals
Speaker 1: over in Japan as well. Yeah, I think Ian Foster's
Speaker 1: the coach of that team and he's yeah director of rugby.
Speaker 1: It's like, how what are these people actually expected to do?
Speaker 3: It sounds like a great time over there. Do they
Speaker 3: need a sports podcast over in Japan for rugby? Yeah,
Speaker 3: because it sounds like a great time here. When I
Speaker 3: talked to Kiaran Reid, Richie Mo, Shannon Frazzel, they they love.
Speaker 1: It, Yeah, they love it. I mean the rugby would
Speaker 1: be so much more forgiving on the body. You're only
Speaker 1: allowed a handful of imports and I think even like
Speaker 1: you're only allowed two on the field or something like that.
Speaker 3: And they it's a pretty short season, they said, it's intense,
Speaker 3: like for that short time. But if I'm.
Speaker 1: Shannon Frazzel, like, what am I worried about when I
Speaker 1: walk out into the field.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's not.
Speaker 1: You're You're the alpha. You are the alpha. You're the thing.
Speaker 1: Remember the Avatar movie where there was that one bird
Speaker 1: that had never been attacked from above because it was
Speaker 1: the biggest thing in the jungle. That's Shannon Frazelf in Japan,
Speaker 1: and that would be us of the podcasting game over there.
Speaker 3: That's right.
Speaker 1: One of the world's top mixed martial arts promotions is
Speaker 1: scouting for local talent as the explore expansion down under
Speaker 1: the PFL or the Pro Fighters League. President Ray Sepfor,
Speaker 1: who I believe is Kiwi Yep, has confirmed me a
Speaker 1: herold that he is looking for expansion into Australia and
Speaker 1: New Zealand, probably towards the end of next year. This
Speaker 1: is something that we've talked about before. Scotti, Stevenson and
Speaker 1: I drafted up a proposal for a Social MMA League.

Speaker 1: It's all pretty chill. That's that's what.
Speaker 3: Last man's stands used to be like until a whole
Speaker 3: of preim players use it as a practice and you
Speaker 3: come along and get your dome rock by a bouncer
Speaker 3: and get humiliated. That's not come man, I'm fucking I'm
Speaker 3: sex beer's deep, running away from my family to get
Speaker 3: any eight male from a fucking premiere club cricket.
Speaker 1: Player that is quite literally not cricket. I don't know
Speaker 1: if you saw this story out of a football game
Speaker 1: in Guinea, of all places, there was a clash over
Speaker 1: a disputed call by the by a referee and It
Speaker 1: resulted in fifty six people being trampled on the way
Speaker 1: out of the stadium. To fifty six people died at
Speaker 1: a football game. We need to up our game. New Zealand.
Speaker 1: We don't even clap, we don't cheer, we don't do anything.
Speaker 3: Where were they running from?
Speaker 1: It was a frakha that broke out. Stampede broke out
Speaker 1: on Sunday afternoon in a stadium in the city of
Speaker 1: Zenic bought it after the final of a local tournament
Speaker 1: between Labby and Zedic caught it. Teams of Guinea's military
Speaker 1: leader Mahmadi Dombuya in honor of him. Oh right, and
Speaker 1: then yeah, there was a there was an issue with
Speaker 1: one of the calls. They started scrapping, they started running
Speaker 1: and fifty six of them got trampled. Wild wild, shit.
Speaker 5: Man.
Speaker 1: We don't give a shit about sport in this country.
Speaker 1: We pretend to. But until I see fifty six people
Speaker 1: getting trampled, Jesus.
Speaker 3: That is that's pretty grim. That's a lot of people.
Speaker 1: That's a lot of people. Layton Bennett has become became
Speaker 1: the youngest ever BDO Youth champion. We're only thirteen years old.
Speaker 1: In twenty nineteen that is darts. He went on to
Speaker 1: beat fourteen time champion Fill the Power Tailor in the
Speaker 1: same year. Him and a bloke by the name of
Speaker 1: Billy have been banned from darts for eight and ten years, respectively,
Speaker 1: and have until December fourteen to appeal. Warrener admitted nineteen
Speaker 1: of twenty one charges for being for being concerned and
Speaker 1: fixing the four matches I don't know what four matches,
Speaker 1: providing inside information and organizing betting on the matches. He
Speaker 1: was doing things like missing the board. You know, hitting
Speaker 1: a certain number on a certain dart has been done
Speaker 1: for match fixing. They gotta pay eight grand each and
Speaker 1: they're out for eight to ten years.
Speaker 3: I never, I always, I never put them teams together.
Speaker 3: But now I think about it. Darts how easy, perfectly
Speaker 3: easy to corrupt just miss because they're so accurate anyway,
Speaker 3: Like you're heading one hundred and eighty three triple twenties,
Speaker 3: you can you can put it within a centimeter of
Speaker 3: where you want to put it. So if you want
Speaker 3: to go high on the double one, you'll go high
Speaker 3: on the double one and you'll you're out whatever. So
Speaker 3: I of course it's going to be corrupt.
Speaker 1: It's probably the easiest sport now that you think about
Speaker 1: it too.
Speaker 3: Snooker.
Speaker 1: Well, but like it'd be so easy to be like
Speaker 1: the sixth start I throw is going to miss the
Speaker 1: board and then you're like, you said so accurate. You
Speaker 1: miss the dartboard by like a centimeter. Here it goes
Speaker 1: oh oh geez, and then you make a face.
Speaker 3: Loss of concentration there from Latin Bennett.
Speaker 1: And then you make a face and you come back
Speaker 1: twenty thousand pounds richer. So yeah, two of them have
Speaker 1: been done. Now that I'm aware of that reckon, everyone's
Speaker 1: on the taken.
Speaker 3: Totally at some stage. Yeah, well, that's like the early
Speaker 3: days of cricket and betting. I mean rumor has it
Speaker 3: that you know, before they crack down it was absolutely rife. Yeah,
Speaker 3: a little secular in the subcontinent before that, you know,
Speaker 3: before they could track it or you know any photo
Speaker 3: electronic kind of footprint.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was absolutely rife because it wasn't like throwing
Speaker 1: a game.
Speaker 3: It was like spot betting.
Speaker 1: It was like if you see me bend over and
Speaker 1: tire my shoelace, I'm going to a bottle white or front
Speaker 1: footno ball or yeah, something like that. The one that
Speaker 1: gets me in the NRL is kick off dead on
Speaker 1: the full. You're like, hmm, particularly to start the game?
Speaker 3: Can you bet on that?
Speaker 1: You can bet on the first stop if you play? Yeah,
Speaker 1: so if you're like kicking off and it happened a
Speaker 1: couple of times for the Warriors a couple years ago. Anyway,
Speaker 1: all I'm saying, I know what you're saying. That one
Speaker 1: doesn't pass a sniff test. All right, let's take a
Speaker 1: quick break. We'll come back with yours please. All right,
Speaker 1: we're offering a once in a lifetime opportunity for a motivated,
Speaker 1: hard working and professional person to join our team. Is

Speaker 3: and two hundred of my closest friends with boys' trip
Speaker 3: to go to Las Vegas for the first round of
Speaker 3: the NRL. This is your seat, by the way, and
Speaker 3: we've decided to give it to someone. So we're looking
Speaker 3: for an interun to help Joe jury out on the
Speaker 3: when we're on the ground. So look, just think about
Speaker 3: what skills you could bring to a trip to Vegas.
Speaker 3: We've got one night in La, three nights in Vegas,
Speaker 3: all flights, accommodation, tickets to the league all covered, so
Speaker 3: it's a pretty sweet trip. All we have to do is, yeah,
Speaker 3: like I say, you have to just show us what
Speaker 3: you can bring to the party with it. I could
Speaker 3: be a card trick. It would be counting cards at
Speaker 3: the blackjack table. That would be handy. It could be
Speaker 3: like I mean, invariably, I know we're going to get
Speaker 3: send a lot of videos of peop buff and beers.
Speaker 3: That's your trick. That's your trick. But if you want
Speaker 3: more information, text in turn to three two three six.

Speaker 1: First called it yours.
Speaker 5: Please, Okody Fellas loving the relationship advice chat. I don't
Speaker 5: know if anybody should be taking advice from you two.
Speaker 5: You guys get to drink person and watch sports for
Speaker 5: a living. You live in the fucking dream. Don't need
Speaker 5: to rub it in our faces and talking about the
Speaker 5: g lane curse. The news already discussed the teas and seas,
Speaker 5: like you're supporting the black Caps the New Zealand.
Speaker 1: It's not a way.
Speaker 3: That matter.
Speaker 1: It's a good point.
Speaker 5: It'd be more like if you supported book On FC
Speaker 5: and Wellington take fans.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, So there you go.
Speaker 3: That's what I was thinking. I'm just looking for a
Speaker 3: little bit of support because I felt the pylon coming.
Speaker 3: So yeah, I'm not traveling anywhere outside the country to
Speaker 3: support my team. So no, that's it isn't a.
Speaker 1: Curse national term within the nation.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like if it was northern districts, I was going to,
Speaker 3: you know, support in Wellington or Canterbury and they last years. Yes,
Speaker 3: So I thank you for very much for that corner.
Speaker 3: Appreciate it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, another call here yours?
Speaker 4: Yeah, Ka follows and Mary fuck it off the February season.
Speaker 4: I hate for this follow and I hate that.
Speaker 1: I know that's fucking fair. I could I hate Davy.
Speaker 4: Dum Dumb, but Davy Dum Dumb's bet was never a
Speaker 4: Kroko bar. He used Gray Nickels, Spartan and DSc his career.
Speaker 4: I'd say the punisher is a bit more like Beads
Speaker 4: McCallum's bet. When he scored the fastest ten hundred, that
Speaker 4: thing was half a tree. So yeah, lovely fellas Mary
Speaker 4: fuck it off to February seasons.
Speaker 1: Less pleased.
Speaker 3: Why did I always presume that he had a Crooker bar,
Speaker 3: I don't know. For some reason in my mind he
Speaker 3: always had a cooker Barrough.
Speaker 1: When I think of big bets, I think Crooker Borrough. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I feel like I have a memory of Martin gupt
Speaker 1: to have a monster bat with him when he scored,
Speaker 1: when he hit that ball out of the cake tin.
Speaker 3: Yeah that anyway. The punisher is the plastic punisher we've
Speaker 3: got at Wheel Sport. It's basically just one of those
Speaker 3: Tea twenty bits that you see and go fuck me.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, but thank you for the attention to detail.
Speaker 1: We're always open to effect. Chick here on the podcast
Speaker 1: that'll do us for today, will knock this thing on
Speaker 1: the head.
Speaker 3: Happy fuck it off to February is good.
