What stands out first 63 00:03:34,827 --> 00:03:37,347 Speaker 2: of all in general terms when you think back to 64 00:03:37,387 --> 00:03:40,507 Speaker 2: the performance the all Black spot on last night, our. 65 00:03:40,467 --> 00:03:46,187 Speaker 6: Physical, super physical from the start, and yeah, it didn't 66 00:03:46,227 --> 00:03:49,387 Speaker 6: really change because those gritty performances to hang in the 67 00:03:49,467 --> 00:03:50,227 Speaker 6: all the way to the end. 68 00:03:51,147 --> 00:03:53,187 Speaker 2: What were you proudest of as a coaching group? 69 00:03:55,107 --> 00:03:58,307 Speaker 6: I think the leaders just the way they lit on 70 00:03:58,347 --> 00:04:01,987 Speaker 6: the field in Fisher moments. They stood up there really 71 00:04:02,027 --> 00:04:06,307 Speaker 6: clear around what they wanted to do, and they drove 72 00:04:06,787 --> 00:04:08,307 Speaker 6: the week and they drove the efforts out there. 73 00:04:08,347 --> 00:04:08,707 Speaker 7: To start with. 74 00:04:09,587 --> 00:04:12,827 Speaker 2: At twenty four seventeen ahead Ardie Savie wants to turnover 75 00:04:12,907 --> 00:04:14,467 Speaker 2: penaly Right at the end, you must have thought you 76 00:04:14,547 --> 00:04:17,067 Speaker 2: had it won, but somehow South Africa got the ball 77 00:04:17,147 --> 00:04:20,067 Speaker 2: back and came again. How are the emotions then right 78 00:04:20,107 --> 00:04:21,867 Speaker 2: at the end as they as they had ball in 79 00:04:21,947 --> 00:04:24,387 Speaker 2: hand and you had to repel one more attack. 80 00:04:26,307 --> 00:04:30,307 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, believenit more clinical than a couple of 81 00:04:30,387 --> 00:04:31,387 Speaker 6: areas there to start with. 82 00:04:32,707 --> 00:04:32,987 Speaker 5: Bowie. 83 00:04:33,147 --> 00:04:36,987 Speaker 6: We back our defense and the efforts the boys that 84 00:04:37,067 --> 00:04:39,147 Speaker 6: keep getting up and keep showing up for their mate. 85 00:04:39,187 --> 00:04:44,027 Speaker 6: So yeah, definitely made it an eighty minute performance for 86 00:04:44,107 --> 00:04:44,907 Speaker 6: the crowd, that's for sure. 87 00:04:45,027 --> 00:04:48,147 Speaker 2: Indeed, indeed, how much did the rain, which wasn't really forecast, 88 00:04:48,147 --> 00:04:49,947 Speaker 2: I don't think how much did that affect things in 89 00:04:50,067 --> 00:04:53,987 Speaker 2: terms of the slippery ground, the slippery ball, just. 90 00:04:54,187 --> 00:04:57,587 Speaker 6: Just the obvious, you know, whether it be I think 91 00:04:58,267 --> 00:05:01,067 Speaker 6: the thing when the rain comes and goes, even once 92 00:05:01,147 --> 00:05:03,547 Speaker 6: it's gone, it's still left on the ground, on the ball, 93 00:05:03,667 --> 00:05:06,667 Speaker 6: on the jersey. So you're really playing in the in 94 00:05:06,787 --> 00:05:09,827 Speaker 6: a game that has rained, where it's raining at the 95 00:05:09,867 --> 00:05:11,707 Speaker 6: time or not, so you have to adapt to those 96 00:05:11,747 --> 00:05:12,747 Speaker 6: conditions pretty quick. 97 00:05:13,587 --> 00:05:16,747 Speaker 2: Over sixty kicks in play last night across the two teams, 98 00:05:16,827 --> 00:05:19,387 Speaker 2: many of them box kicks. A lot of chat about 99 00:05:19,427 --> 00:05:22,387 Speaker 2: the aerial battle. How do you evaluate how the All 100 00:05:22,427 --> 00:05:23,707 Speaker 2: Blacks went in the air last night? 101 00:05:24,627 --> 00:05:27,667 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think the intent was really good. You know, 102 00:05:27,787 --> 00:05:31,187 Speaker 6: you saw the money, you know, flying into the air 103 00:05:31,187 --> 00:05:33,387 Speaker 6: there at the start. Just just the intent to want 104 00:05:33,427 --> 00:05:35,587 Speaker 6: to really compete in the air. I thought there was 105 00:05:35,627 --> 00:05:36,187 Speaker 6: a shift there. 106 00:05:36,947 --> 00:05:39,027 Speaker 2: How big a part of your brief as a coach 107 00:05:39,187 --> 00:05:42,427 Speaker 2: is the aerial games. 108 00:05:43,107 --> 00:05:45,947 Speaker 6: It's a handover, you know, from the attacking side. Of 109 00:05:45,987 --> 00:05:48,947 Speaker 6: the board to the d So it's critical that we're 110 00:05:48,987 --> 00:05:52,707 Speaker 6: aligned on where those kicks are going and then looking 111 00:05:52,747 --> 00:05:54,227 Speaker 6: forward to putting pressure on the air and then the 112 00:05:54,307 --> 00:05:57,107 Speaker 6: ground once this kicks is center. It's a massive part 113 00:05:57,147 --> 00:05:58,347 Speaker 6: of the transition part of the game. 114 00:05:58,787 --> 00:06:03,747 Speaker 2: What are the key what are the really important parts 115 00:06:03,827 --> 00:06:07,187 Speaker 2: of being good defensively in the air? Because I think 116 00:06:07,227 --> 00:06:10,627 Speaker 2: we all knew that you know the bombs were coming, 117 00:06:10,827 --> 00:06:13,867 Speaker 2: are you obviously dead? How do you best strategize to 118 00:06:13,947 --> 00:06:14,427 Speaker 2: deal with them? 119 00:06:15,507 --> 00:06:18,907 Speaker 6: I think some of that skill set getting high in 120 00:06:18,947 --> 00:06:21,067 Speaker 6: the opposition, timing you jump and making sure you're the 121 00:06:21,147 --> 00:06:23,347 Speaker 6: highest in the air with it. That's with your knee 122 00:06:23,387 --> 00:06:27,107 Speaker 6: or with your hands. So skill set's important, but it 123 00:06:27,227 --> 00:06:29,587 Speaker 6: really comes down to being fearless in the air. It's 124 00:06:29,667 --> 00:06:32,427 Speaker 6: just the person who wants to get up in the 125 00:06:32,947 --> 00:06:34,867 Speaker 6: owner as normally the person who gets the ball or 126 00:06:35,307 --> 00:06:37,187 Speaker 6: will gets the best part of the scraps. Anyway, So 127 00:06:37,467 --> 00:06:39,027 Speaker 6: I thought we were really good deal with the unten. 128 00:06:39,667 --> 00:06:41,747 Speaker 2: How much is the changing rules and that you know 129 00:06:41,867 --> 00:06:44,667 Speaker 2: you basically can't block runners in any any way, shape 130 00:06:44,747 --> 00:06:46,747 Speaker 2: or form. Now, how much has that change things? 131 00:06:48,787 --> 00:06:51,067 Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't think that's made the air any safer 132 00:06:51,787 --> 00:06:54,587 Speaker 6: to be fair, like a it's a collision in the 133 00:06:54,667 --> 00:06:58,467 Speaker 6: air now, So while those are the rules, you know, 134 00:06:58,507 --> 00:07:01,187 Speaker 6: we're definitely pay by the rules and make the best 135 00:07:01,227 --> 00:07:04,787 Speaker 6: out of it, but you know, the protection for the 136 00:07:04,827 --> 00:07:06,507 Speaker 6: man in the air, there's not a lot there, so 137 00:07:07,067 --> 00:07:09,787 Speaker 6: as it stands, we play where it leaves. 138 00:07:10,747 --> 00:07:13,787 Speaker 2: Artie Savia became the latest All Blacks Test centurion last night. 139 00:07:13,867 --> 00:07:16,147 Speaker 2: They were celebrated on the field after the game. How 140 00:07:16,187 --> 00:07:18,587 Speaker 2: do you celebrate that sort of milestone Internally? 141 00:07:22,267 --> 00:07:25,947 Speaker 6: Artie had his fun out here yesterday. You know, his 142 00:07:26,027 --> 00:07:30,987 Speaker 6: big brother. It was just great to bring them inside 143 00:07:31,027 --> 00:07:34,627 Speaker 6: the team environment and they had had their own little 144 00:07:34,667 --> 00:07:37,867 Speaker 6: thing as well, so it was just great to have 145 00:07:38,027 --> 00:07:40,747 Speaker 6: his parents and and sas and the kids and everyone here. 146 00:07:40,867 --> 00:07:43,667 Speaker 6: So I think, you know, we all just sit back 147 00:07:43,747 --> 00:07:48,627 Speaker 6: and in all of Bavardi and their family and how 148 00:07:48,667 --> 00:07:50,747 Speaker 6: well they've done and how much Shee've given to Musan rugby. 149 00:07:51,587 --> 00:07:54,427 Speaker 2: Do you remember the young Ardie Savia who you played 150 00:07:54,427 --> 00:07:56,107 Speaker 2: against at the back end of your own career. 151 00:07:58,667 --> 00:08:01,227 Speaker 6: My memories of Artie was his brother, to start with, 152 00:08:02,227 --> 00:08:06,227 Speaker 6: playing with it and against Julian and then hearing it 153 00:08:06,347 --> 00:08:09,027 Speaker 6: there's a there's another savior coming and he and he 154 00:08:09,147 --> 00:08:13,067 Speaker 6: might be better. So I actually heard about him before 155 00:08:13,107 --> 00:08:15,747 Speaker 6: I ever met him, and you know the proofs in 156 00:08:15,787 --> 00:08:16,187 Speaker 6: the putting. 157 00:08:17,107 --> 00:08:18,787 Speaker 2: Scott Robinson said during the week he is a man 158 00:08:18,827 --> 00:08:21,387 Speaker 2: a few words and you know, humility is obviously a 159 00:08:21,467 --> 00:08:24,027 Speaker 2: quality we can all see in Ardie Savia. How deep though, 160 00:08:24,107 --> 00:08:25,587 Speaker 2: is his influence in the playing group. 161 00:08:27,267 --> 00:08:31,347 Speaker 6: It's messis it's action based on the field. It's obvious 162 00:08:32,187 --> 00:08:36,027 Speaker 6: off the field. You know that that leader who's he's 163 00:08:36,067 --> 00:08:39,067 Speaker 6: got a shoulder for younger players, but he also keeps 164 00:08:39,107 --> 00:08:43,347 Speaker 6: standards for everyone else. So he's massive and I'm talking coaches, 165 00:08:43,427 --> 00:08:46,627 Speaker 6: management players to see influence he has. And I think 166 00:08:47,427 --> 00:08:52,027 Speaker 6: everyone in this group would do anything for odds and 167 00:08:52,707 --> 00:08:54,227 Speaker 6: we're just special that we could get over the line 168 00:08:54,227 --> 00:08:54,467 Speaker 6: for him. 169 00:08:54,547 --> 00:08:54,907 Speaker 8: Last night. 170 00:08:55,387 --> 00:08:56,667 Speaker 2: At the other end of the scale, you had a 171 00:08:56,707 --> 00:08:59,707 Speaker 2: test debutant last night and half back Kyle Preston, this 172 00:08:59,907 --> 00:09:03,107 Speaker 2: has I think come quicker than he could have possibly imagined. 173 00:09:03,107 --> 00:09:04,827 Speaker 2: How has he conducted himself across the week? 174 00:09:05,947 --> 00:09:08,347 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think KP is really consistent in his habits 175 00:09:08,387 --> 00:09:11,147 Speaker 6: and that's probably what's got him here and what will 176 00:09:11,187 --> 00:09:15,467 Speaker 6: keep him going is he's super diligent. He's head down 177 00:09:15,787 --> 00:09:18,867 Speaker 6: and they think He's always been that way, so yeah, 178 00:09:18,867 --> 00:09:20,627 Speaker 6: you don't hear a lot out of him, but he's 179 00:09:20,667 --> 00:09:23,347 Speaker 6: into his work, and not just as a younger person, 180 00:09:23,427 --> 00:09:25,507 Speaker 6: it's just the way he's always gone about his business. 181 00:09:25,587 --> 00:09:27,827 Speaker 6: So replica to get out of there last night. 182 00:09:28,347 --> 00:09:32,307 Speaker 2: No yellow cards last night? Was discipline a specific focus 183 00:09:32,387 --> 00:09:34,307 Speaker 2: given the yellow cards you've been handed in the last 184 00:09:34,347 --> 00:09:34,987 Speaker 2: couple of games. 185 00:09:37,067 --> 00:09:39,507 Speaker 6: It always is, you know, we're trying to be as 186 00:09:39,627 --> 00:09:42,227 Speaker 6: safe as we can, but aggressive as we can as well. 187 00:09:44,427 --> 00:09:46,867 Speaker 6: If you're on the sideline, you see the impact of 188 00:09:46,947 --> 00:09:51,347 Speaker 6: the collisions and sometimes you know, people get them get 189 00:09:51,387 --> 00:09:53,587 Speaker 6: them wrong. It's both sides of the ball. Sometimes it's 190 00:09:54,147 --> 00:09:55,907 Speaker 6: a leading head from a ball Cary can, you know. 191 00:09:56,027 --> 00:09:59,627 Speaker 6: So it's always a focus. We're always trying to upskill 192 00:09:59,707 --> 00:10:02,227 Speaker 6: and be better in the collisions, you know, a week 193 00:10:02,267 --> 00:10:04,027 Speaker 6: on week and we're really genuine about that prep. 194 00:10:04,867 --> 00:10:08,667 Speaker 2: Did you feel extra pressure ahead of this game, given 195 00:10:09,267 --> 00:10:12,667 Speaker 2: the enormity of the occasion, the loss in Argentina, the 196 00:10:12,867 --> 00:10:16,107 Speaker 2: Eden Park record to protect. Was there an extra edge 197 00:10:16,667 --> 00:10:17,387 Speaker 2: about this week? 198 00:10:18,787 --> 00:10:21,627 Speaker 6: I think there was always going to be an extra 199 00:10:21,747 --> 00:10:25,467 Speaker 6: edge with the spring box and and Eden Park, and 200 00:10:26,507 --> 00:10:29,547 Speaker 6: you know, conciding without these hundred there was also an 201 00:10:29,547 --> 00:10:34,867 Speaker 6: extra edge. I'm not sure the pressure changes. I think 202 00:10:35,827 --> 00:10:39,707 Speaker 6: if you really clear around your process, you know, the 203 00:10:39,787 --> 00:10:42,907 Speaker 6: peaks and the valleys of the game. My job try 204 00:10:42,987 --> 00:10:45,067 Speaker 6: and make players better, so you know, wake up this 205 00:10:45,187 --> 00:10:48,067 Speaker 6: morning and it's the same process for me around how 206 00:10:48,107 --> 00:10:51,667 Speaker 6: do I make them better? So yeah, there was edge. 207 00:10:51,867 --> 00:10:54,947 Speaker 6: I'm not sure there was unnecessary pressure. 208 00:10:55,347 --> 00:10:58,147 Speaker 2: And in terms of the players themselves, is there any 209 00:10:58,667 --> 00:11:01,587 Speaker 2: need to ensure they don't play the game before the 210 00:11:01,627 --> 00:11:03,547 Speaker 2: game arrives? If you know what I mean? Again, so 211 00:11:03,667 --> 00:11:06,667 Speaker 2: much hype. You know, it's a long week and many ways. 212 00:11:06,987 --> 00:11:09,507 Speaker 2: Is there any strategy needed in that regard? 213 00:11:10,507 --> 00:11:11,187 Speaker 9: I think so lot. 214 00:11:11,427 --> 00:11:13,987 Speaker 6: We're very blessed with mc gill here. It's been here 215 00:11:13,987 --> 00:11:16,667 Speaker 6: a very long time. He knows how to menace the 216 00:11:16,787 --> 00:11:19,187 Speaker 6: energy loads of the week and it's got a great 217 00:11:19,227 --> 00:11:22,227 Speaker 6: feel for where the group is. At the same time, 218 00:11:22,267 --> 00:11:26,507 Speaker 6: you've got body Barrett and Cody, Taylor and Ardie who 219 00:11:26,827 --> 00:11:28,227 Speaker 6: have been here a long time, so they know how 220 00:11:28,267 --> 00:11:31,747 Speaker 6: to manage the group and the mindset and communicate with 221 00:11:31,867 --> 00:11:34,987 Speaker 6: the coaches around what's needed. So we're really well led 222 00:11:35,027 --> 00:11:35,547 Speaker 6: in that space. 223 00:11:36,187 --> 00:11:37,267 Speaker 2: Do you still get nervous? 224 00:11:39,147 --> 00:11:39,347 Speaker 9: Yeah? 225 00:11:39,467 --> 00:11:41,147 Speaker 6: Yeah, I do. I think that's a great part about it. 226 00:11:41,227 --> 00:11:43,667 Speaker 6: When you're not on that side of the line, the 227 00:11:43,787 --> 00:11:46,547 Speaker 6: nerves are they're meant to be there, and you know 228 00:11:47,267 --> 00:11:48,827 Speaker 6: the feeling you're so much meant to be there. It 229 00:11:48,907 --> 00:11:52,667 Speaker 6: means you care and you know even this morning and 230 00:11:52,747 --> 00:11:54,267 Speaker 6: going into the start of this week that they'll be 231 00:11:54,307 --> 00:11:56,307 Speaker 6: there as well, and it helps you go deep in 232 00:11:56,347 --> 00:11:56,907 Speaker 6: your preparation. 233 00:11:57,507 --> 00:11:59,627 Speaker 2: All right, just to finish on to Wellington. Now, will 234 00:11:59,627 --> 00:12:02,787 Speaker 2: you do it all again next Saturday? That's that's just 235 00:12:02,867 --> 00:12:05,667 Speaker 2: the nature of elite international sport, isn't It is a 236 00:12:05,707 --> 00:12:08,707 Speaker 2: week enough to recover and then get your players ready 237 00:12:08,787 --> 00:12:12,787 Speaker 2: physically and even mentally to go into battle again six 238 00:12:12,907 --> 00:12:13,507 Speaker 2: days from now. 239 00:12:14,867 --> 00:12:17,227 Speaker 6: Yeah, it has to be. I mean that's what what's 240 00:12:17,267 --> 00:12:20,667 Speaker 6: the monder of the Jusian expectation? So yep, we have 241 00:12:20,787 --> 00:12:21,347 Speaker 6: to make it work. 242 00:12:22,027 --> 00:12:23,827 Speaker 2: Travel safe, Tamody, great to chat do you mate, all 243 00:12:23,827 --> 00:12:25,547 Speaker 2: the best. Congratulations on the win last night. 244 00:12:25,947 --> 00:12:27,467 Speaker 6: Thanks Tony, appreciate the support. 245 00:12:27,547 --> 00:12:29,427 Speaker 2: Thank you, no, thank you for you for taking the call. 246 00:12:29,627 --> 00:12:33,067 Speaker 2: Tamoty Tummoty Ellison, that assistant coach of the All Blacks 247 00:12:33,187 --> 00:12:36,267 Speaker 2: or one of you've heard his thoughts. I eight hundred 248 00:12:36,307 --> 00:12:38,107 Speaker 2: and eighty ten eight. You're really keen to hear yours. 249 00:12:38,507 --> 00:12:40,547 Speaker 2: You've given it the overnight test, as we say, you've 250 00:12:40,587 --> 00:12:43,227 Speaker 2: thought a bit about it. You've perhaps watched some highlights 251 00:12:43,307 --> 00:12:46,387 Speaker 2: or a replay today, done some reading, done, some listening. 252 00:12:46,627 --> 00:12:48,147 Speaker 2: Time to do a bit of talking. I eight one 253 00:12:48,227 --> 00:12:50,947 Speaker 2: hundred and eighty ten eighty lines are open. Anything at 254 00:12:50,947 --> 00:12:52,867 Speaker 2: all that stood out last night, anything you want to 255 00:12:52,907 --> 00:13:00,867 Speaker 2: pick up on mission. Accomplished, win, secured, fortress defended. So 256 00:13:01,547 --> 00:13:05,547 Speaker 2: tick those boxes. A fitting result and performance for Ardie 257 00:13:05,587 --> 00:13:09,987 Speaker 2: Savilla's one hundredth test, because when these milestones rolled around, 258 00:13:10,027 --> 00:13:12,547 Speaker 2: the last thing you want is to have the presentation 259 00:13:12,787 --> 00:13:17,187 Speaker 2: and the celebration afterwards having just lost the game of rugby. 260 00:13:18,387 --> 00:13:21,547 Speaker 2: So that was good that that didn't happen. That when 261 00:13:22,227 --> 00:13:25,027 Speaker 2: Ardie Savi went up there and received his cap from 262 00:13:25,107 --> 00:13:29,187 Speaker 2: Rico Yowani with all of his family and closest friends, 263 00:13:29,227 --> 00:13:32,267 Speaker 2: there was a special moment, but also he could feel 264 00:13:33,187 --> 00:13:37,907 Speaker 2: satisfied with the way the game had played out. There 265 00:13:38,027 --> 00:13:43,107 Speaker 2: was enormous pressure on this team this week, enormous pressure 266 00:13:44,187 --> 00:13:47,827 Speaker 2: and in particular on Scott Robertson. I saw him afterwards 267 00:13:47,867 --> 00:13:49,667 Speaker 2: down on the grass. I was down there doing some 268 00:13:49,787 --> 00:13:53,987 Speaker 2: postmatch interviews and I saw Scott Robertson and the look 269 00:13:54,027 --> 00:13:56,827 Speaker 2: on his face was clearly satisfaction, but I wonder if 270 00:13:56,867 --> 00:13:59,947 Speaker 2: there was just a bit of relief in there as well. 271 00:14:01,227 --> 00:14:03,147 Speaker 2: You don't want to be the coach who oversees the 272 00:14:03,347 --> 00:14:07,307 Speaker 2: end of the Eden Park unbeaten record. Someone's going to 273 00:14:07,347 --> 00:14:11,227 Speaker 2: be might even be Scott Robertson one day, but you 274 00:14:11,347 --> 00:14:13,347 Speaker 2: don't want to be that coach, especially when you've just 275 00:14:13,427 --> 00:14:17,747 Speaker 2: lost your last game in Argentina and being the coach 276 00:14:17,787 --> 00:14:21,547 Speaker 2: who oversaw a loss in Argentina for the first time. 277 00:14:22,507 --> 00:14:27,467 Speaker 2: So it just rarely felt as though the pressure ramped 278 00:14:27,547 --> 00:14:30,267 Speaker 2: up on Scott Robinson and his coaching staff and his 279 00:14:30,347 --> 00:14:32,347 Speaker 2: players during the week and they responded in the best 280 00:14:32,387 --> 00:14:35,707 Speaker 2: possible way. They won the Test match. Standouts couple for 281 00:14:35,827 --> 00:14:39,907 Speaker 2: me Artie obviously had to go past the man who 282 00:14:39,947 --> 00:14:43,507 Speaker 2: brought up his hundred and secured that vital turnover at 283 00:14:43,547 --> 00:14:45,867 Speaker 2: the end, although South Africa then got the ball back 284 00:14:45,987 --> 00:14:48,627 Speaker 2: and had another crack at it, but I thought Artie 285 00:14:48,667 --> 00:14:53,067 Speaker 2: was superb. I did think though, that this was a 286 00:14:53,227 --> 00:14:56,627 Speaker 2: massive test in the captain c arc of Scott Barrett. 287 00:14:57,507 --> 00:15:01,147 Speaker 2: I thought he was monumental out there last night in 288 00:15:01,227 --> 00:15:03,467 Speaker 2: all facets of the game. I think he lost one 289 00:15:03,587 --> 00:15:05,867 Speaker 2: line out, but other than that he was great at 290 00:15:05,867 --> 00:15:09,547 Speaker 2: set peace. He made his tackles good and the loose. 291 00:15:10,987 --> 00:15:15,787 Speaker 2: But also you can tell from the sideline how much 292 00:15:15,867 --> 00:15:18,787 Speaker 2: influence he has on that playing group. Scott Barrett's a 293 00:15:18,827 --> 00:15:22,107 Speaker 2: guy a few words in a media session or in 294 00:15:22,227 --> 00:15:25,187 Speaker 2: any any other place apart from the rugby field. But 295 00:15:25,307 --> 00:15:29,107 Speaker 2: watching from the sideline last night, he is constantly talking 296 00:15:29,387 --> 00:15:32,907 Speaker 2: Scott Barrett. He's geeing as players up, he's making a point. 297 00:15:33,107 --> 00:15:34,707 Speaker 2: I also thought last night he had a lot more 298 00:15:34,747 --> 00:15:37,907 Speaker 2: to do with the referee. So I just wonder whether 299 00:15:38,107 --> 00:15:41,027 Speaker 2: last night might be quite a pivotal Test match and 300 00:15:41,067 --> 00:15:44,147 Speaker 2: the captaincy career of the All Blacks of Scott Barrett. 301 00:15:44,947 --> 00:15:46,387 Speaker 2: Those are just a few of my thoughts. You'll have 302 00:15:46,467 --> 00:15:48,307 Speaker 2: them as well. Oh eight hundred and eighty ten eighty 303 00:15:48,387 --> 00:15:49,267 Speaker 2: Hello Dallas. 304 00:15:50,627 --> 00:15:53,267 Speaker 10: Knee, Yeah, we those Barrett boys. 305 00:15:54,867 --> 00:15:55,427 Speaker 11: That's so good. 306 00:15:55,907 --> 00:15:58,507 Speaker 2: God bless Smiley, God, bless Smiley Barrett. That's all I 307 00:15:58,547 --> 00:16:02,067 Speaker 2: can say, Dallas for siring so many bloody good rugby players. 308 00:16:03,267 --> 00:16:05,667 Speaker 10: It's just amazing. Hey Tiney, I want to thank you 309 00:16:05,827 --> 00:16:09,947 Speaker 10: for your pre match stuff yesterday.

Look, I don't know about you. On a 315 00:16:26,827 --> 00:16:29,507 Speaker 2: before a big game like that, the time tends to drag. 316 00:16:29,587 --> 00:16:30,987 Speaker 2: You look at your watch and then you look at 317 00:16:30,987 --> 00:16:33,387 Speaker 2: it again, thinking an hour's gone past and three minutes 318 00:16:33,427 --> 00:16:35,387 Speaker 2: have gone by. So happy to help out. 319 00:16:37,547 --> 00:16:39,747 Speaker 10: Yeah, but at least you thought it was good content, 320 00:16:39,827 --> 00:16:40,507 Speaker 10: So that was great. 321 00:16:40,587 --> 00:16:41,907 Speaker 11: Hey, the game. 322 00:16:42,147 --> 00:16:46,587 Speaker 10: So the hias, Now, as I understand it, when you 323 00:16:46,667 --> 00:16:48,467 Speaker 10: get an HIA, you go off and you have a 324 00:16:48,547 --> 00:16:49,387 Speaker 10: replacement come. 325 00:16:49,347 --> 00:16:52,867 Speaker 2: On, right, Yes, well it tends to be I mean, 326 00:16:52,907 --> 00:16:53,667 Speaker 2: I agree with. 327 00:16:53,747 --> 00:16:57,107 Speaker 10: These hias, but it tends to be a real circuit, doesn't. 328 00:16:57,147 --> 00:16:58,507 Speaker 10: You've got people coming and going. 329 00:16:59,187 --> 00:17:02,827 Speaker 11: No one knows what is that? How you got the game? 330 00:17:03,067 --> 00:17:03,307 Speaker 7: It was? 331 00:17:03,467 --> 00:17:06,227 Speaker 2: It's here. And Elliott Smith, our lead commentator last night, 332 00:17:06,347 --> 00:17:08,267 Speaker 2: said after the game there were so many comings and 333 00:17:08,387 --> 00:17:10,667 Speaker 2: goings he was having a hard time keeping up with 334 00:17:10,747 --> 00:17:12,947 Speaker 2: it because you know, guys who had gone off were 335 00:17:12,987 --> 00:17:16,547 Speaker 2: coming back on. Cia Calisi was substituted. He came back 336 00:17:16,587 --> 00:17:19,627 Speaker 2: on at the end to you know, for I don't 337 00:17:19,627 --> 00:17:21,307 Speaker 2: know whether there was an hia, but he was certainly 338 00:17:21,387 --> 00:17:23,747 Speaker 2: back in the game. Jeordie went off at one point, 339 00:17:25,067 --> 00:17:27,467 Speaker 2: Wallace a TDI went off and Dupless Carnifi came on. 340 00:17:27,587 --> 00:17:29,867 Speaker 2: Then Dups went off and Wallace came back on again. 341 00:17:29,947 --> 00:17:32,067 Speaker 2: It was a bit of a it was a revolving door. 342 00:17:32,187 --> 00:17:34,747 Speaker 2: It does make it a little bit hard to follow someone. 343 00:17:34,907 --> 00:17:36,827 Speaker 2: Other thing, Dallas is I don't think these players when 344 00:17:36,867 --> 00:17:39,267 Speaker 2: they when they're told they've got a goal for an 345 00:17:39,387 --> 00:17:41,707 Speaker 2: h I A both Jordi Barrett and Wallace a tit 346 00:17:42,187 --> 00:17:44,627 Speaker 2: looked very confused that they were the ones who had 347 00:17:44,667 --> 00:17:46,787 Speaker 2: been singled out. But it's all done on this mouth 348 00:17:47,147 --> 00:17:48,707 Speaker 2: on the smart mouthguards. 349 00:17:49,827 --> 00:17:53,547 Speaker 10: Okay, right, No, I'm not saying it's a bad thing, 350 00:17:53,747 --> 00:17:55,467 Speaker 10: you know, I think it's a good to air on 351 00:17:55,747 --> 00:17:57,507 Speaker 10: air on the side of the caution, but it just 352 00:17:57,667 --> 00:18:00,747 Speaker 10: does make it for a just jointed game. I don't 353 00:18:00,747 --> 00:18:01,627 Speaker 10: know what we do about that. 354 00:18:01,787 --> 00:18:06,547 Speaker 2: But yeah, yeah, Dallas, it's it's I think I think 355 00:18:06,547 --> 00:18:09,867 Speaker 2: you're right on the side of caution. And and you know, 356 00:18:10,107 --> 00:18:13,027 Speaker 2: those guys went off, had their hia, everything was okay, 357 00:18:13,067 --> 00:18:15,587 Speaker 2: they came back on. Glad you enjoyed yesterday too, mate. 358 00:18:15,627 --> 00:18:17,707 Speaker 2: We loved it.

You know, this is like, you know, 378 00:19:09,427 --> 00:19:11,627 Speaker 12: eighteen minutes later and they and they made a real 379 00:19:11,747 --> 00:19:15,707 Speaker 12: nice gesture, they did something, gave him something spring Box things. Anyway, 380 00:19:15,987 --> 00:19:18,827 Speaker 12: I just thought it was really classy. Even the way 381 00:19:18,947 --> 00:19:21,747 Speaker 12: you know, Russy Rasmus talked about the honesty of the 382 00:19:21,867 --> 00:19:25,867 Speaker 12: game in his interview with was you know a scope. 383 00:19:26,147 --> 00:19:29,827 Speaker 12: It was just it just showed the enormous respect both 384 00:19:29,867 --> 00:19:30,947 Speaker 12: of them have got for each other. 385 00:19:31,187 --> 00:19:32,467 Speaker 13: I just thought that was real telling. 386 00:19:32,587 --> 00:19:36,827 Speaker 12: But two weeks is a big difference in sport, mate Tony. 387 00:19:36,907 --> 00:19:39,467 Speaker 12: You know all the things we failed in Argentina, I 388 00:19:39,587 --> 00:19:42,027 Speaker 12: thought we were supreme at and we won the actual 389 00:19:42,067 --> 00:19:46,387 Speaker 12: aerial battle, not necessarily because we put more kicks up, 390 00:19:46,427 --> 00:19:49,707 Speaker 12: but our kicks didn't go under wasted. And you know Manland, 391 00:19:49,907 --> 00:19:53,347 Speaker 12: you know, was they were long and low. It put 392 00:19:53,387 --> 00:19:55,667 Speaker 12: them under pressure and we got more than fifty of 393 00:19:55,707 --> 00:19:57,947 Speaker 12: them back. We're in Argentina, I think we got zero 394 00:19:58,147 --> 00:20:00,227 Speaker 12: back off you know, off the off the aerial battle. 395 00:20:00,307 --> 00:20:02,307 Speaker 12: So so that was my big thing. 396 00:20:02,747 --> 00:20:03,467 Speaker 14: I didn't expect it. 397 00:20:03,547 --> 00:20:05,387 Speaker 12: I didn't think we were capable of it, but we 398 00:20:05,507 --> 00:20:07,187 Speaker 12: actually turned it into bit of a stringth you know, 399 00:20:07,227 --> 00:20:09,827 Speaker 12: we tuned a weakness in Argentina into string last night, 400 00:20:09,907 --> 00:20:13,067 Speaker 12: and that was so pleasing for me to see that. Yeah, 401 00:20:13,547 --> 00:20:15,307 Speaker 12: they'll do it to getting next week too, matey. 402 00:20:15,347 --> 00:20:17,707 Speaker 2: Well, and look, the aerial battle last night was made 403 00:20:17,747 --> 00:20:20,187 Speaker 2: even more difficult for both sides by the weather. You know, 404 00:20:20,307 --> 00:20:22,907 Speaker 2: the rain swept and the balls like a cake of soap. 405 00:20:23,187 --> 00:20:25,027 Speaker 2: You're a bit unsure of your footing. I know, a 406 00:20:25,067 --> 00:20:28,387 Speaker 2: lot of guys came out without, you know, expecting the 407 00:20:28,827 --> 00:20:30,467 Speaker 2: ground to be as wet as it was, and just 408 00:20:30,587 --> 00:20:33,067 Speaker 2: after kick off, you know, as a heavy shower of 409 00:20:33,147 --> 00:20:35,027 Speaker 2: rain came across and all that water just sat on 410 00:20:35,067 --> 00:20:37,227 Speaker 2: the top of the grass, so guys were slipping and 411 00:20:37,267 --> 00:20:39,787 Speaker 2: sliding all over the place. So that makes it difficult 412 00:20:39,827 --> 00:20:42,227 Speaker 2: as well. But yeah, I was watching with such interest 413 00:20:42,347 --> 00:20:45,787 Speaker 2: Jason the box kicking in particular last night from the 414 00:20:45,827 --> 00:20:48,347 Speaker 2: All Blacks and where the chasers were, you know, if 415 00:20:48,427 --> 00:20:51,187 Speaker 2: they were there, and they were they're right, You're right. 416 00:20:51,227 --> 00:20:53,627 Speaker 2: They didn't win them all, but they won more of them, 417 00:20:53,747 --> 00:20:56,907 Speaker 2: and I think under defensive pressure. I thought the courage 418 00:20:56,907 --> 00:20:59,147 Speaker 2: shown by the likes of Damien McKenzie and Will Jordan 419 00:20:59,267 --> 00:21:01,307 Speaker 2: was what was really admirable. 420 00:21:02,347 --> 00:21:04,347 Speaker 12: Hey, two other guys that got the signal out one 421 00:21:04,387 --> 00:21:06,147 Speaker 12: of them I'm always going on and I did it 422 00:21:06,427 --> 00:21:08,787 Speaker 12: gave him a real hard time after Argentina lost. Was 423 00:21:08,867 --> 00:21:11,907 Speaker 12: Rico Yuani. I thought, you know, not not for anything. 424 00:21:12,107 --> 00:21:15,107 Speaker 12: Magically did on the tack. But that that's Trey daving 425 00:21:15,787 --> 00:21:19,467 Speaker 12: tackle that he stopped, you know, that's that's that's gold. 426 00:21:19,507 --> 00:21:22,987 Speaker 12: I mean that's seven points contributed or saved. And the 427 00:21:23,027 --> 00:21:25,267 Speaker 12: other guy I thought from Lake Christie that was real. 428 00:21:25,387 --> 00:21:27,467 Speaker 12: White coached up for him to go, you know, to start, 429 00:21:27,627 --> 00:21:30,387 Speaker 12: and I thought he might have been a bit outmuscled. 430 00:21:31,067 --> 00:21:33,187 Speaker 15: I was worried about it, but he actually was superb. 431 00:21:33,387 --> 00:21:37,707 Speaker 2: So yeah, no, I totally agree with both. Jase, Yeah, 432 00:21:37,787 --> 00:21:40,067 Speaker 2: ricco you Onani holding up the man over the line 433 00:21:40,267 --> 00:21:42,547 Speaker 2: a crucial moment of the game. And I thought Finlay Christy, 434 00:21:43,187 --> 00:21:45,747 Speaker 2: given the fact that really he he is the fourth 435 00:21:46,267 --> 00:21:48,747 Speaker 2: choice half back in the minds of the All Blacks 436 00:21:48,827 --> 00:21:52,387 Speaker 2: coaches because they picked Roy Gard and hop them ahead 437 00:21:52,427 --> 00:21:55,107 Speaker 2: of him. I thought the fact that he fronted up 438 00:21:55,147 --> 00:21:58,707 Speaker 2: there last night, he showed the value of experience. For me, 439 00:21:59,827 --> 00:22:02,427 Speaker 2: wasn't phased by it. He's played big games before. Goodness me. 440 00:22:02,427 --> 00:22:04,547 Speaker 2: He played in the last Rugby World Cup final off 441 00:22:04,587 --> 00:22:09,187 Speaker 2: the bench. He had a very good game and I 442 00:22:09,267 --> 00:22:11,147 Speaker 2: was rapped to see a new All Black too. Kyle Preston, 443 00:22:11,187 --> 00:22:13,907 Speaker 2: come on, thanks Jakes.

I had a jacket, thankfully, but man, 462 00:23:01,027 --> 00:23:03,347 Speaker 2: it just came sort of in from the south west 463 00:23:03,427 --> 00:23:05,427 Speaker 2: and drenched us all for a week while there. 464 00:23:07,067 --> 00:23:08,947 Speaker 7: Lucky I was at home watching him with a cold 465 00:23:08,987 --> 00:23:12,107 Speaker 7: beer and thinks Dad, and he's getting so but. 466 00:23:13,787 --> 00:23:16,067 Speaker 16: Hey, are you played massive? 467 00:23:16,187 --> 00:23:16,307 Speaker 17: You know? 468 00:23:16,547 --> 00:23:18,427 Speaker 18: He always does and suddenly Christie pay Well. 469 00:23:18,507 --> 00:23:21,667 Speaker 19: But Scott Barrett, you know, there was the captain's knock. 470 00:23:22,267 --> 00:23:22,867 Speaker 9: That was cricket. 471 00:23:22,947 --> 00:23:24,547 Speaker 18: He would have made a sceney you know, he was 472 00:23:24,707 --> 00:23:27,387 Speaker 18: just you know, we've been waiting for us and he. 473 00:23:27,587 --> 00:23:29,987 Speaker 2: Just he was just so good last night, Henry, I 474 00:23:30,107 --> 00:23:32,227 Speaker 2: could not agree more. I thought he was man of 475 00:23:32,267 --> 00:23:35,067 Speaker 2: the match. I thought he was herculean last night. And 476 00:23:35,107 --> 00:23:36,747 Speaker 2: it's funny you say that. You know, we've been waiting 477 00:23:36,787 --> 00:23:39,387 Speaker 2: a while for this. I think, you know, he hasn't 478 00:23:39,427 --> 00:23:41,907 Speaker 2: been a universally popular choice as captain. I think a 479 00:23:41,907 --> 00:23:43,427 Speaker 2: lot of people, you know, look around that All Blacks 480 00:23:43,427 --> 00:23:45,227 Speaker 2: team and say there are other candidates who perhaps you 481 00:23:45,307 --> 00:23:47,587 Speaker 2: wear the armband. But what I saw last night from 482 00:23:47,587 --> 00:23:50,187 Speaker 2: Scott Barrett was the reason why he is the captain. 483 00:23:50,987 --> 00:23:53,467 Speaker 2: He's highly respected in that team and on his day 484 00:23:53,707 --> 00:23:55,787 Speaker 2: or on his night, which last night was, he is 485 00:23:55,827 --> 00:23:58,507 Speaker 2: one of the best lock forwards in the world. You know, 486 00:23:58,747 --> 00:23:59,947 Speaker 2: it was just he was just good. 487 00:24:00,107 --> 00:24:02,987 Speaker 15: It was just, you know, it was just perfect.

Hello, Chris. 495 00:24:18,427 --> 00:24:20,307 Speaker 15: I think that the all Bleck's. 496 00:24:19,987 --> 00:24:24,587 Speaker 20: Got it right with the loose trio Parker just his size. 497 00:24:24,827 --> 00:24:27,667 Speaker 7: And I thought so TT having him back, very active. 498 00:24:27,467 --> 00:24:30,867 Speaker 20: And aggressive, just like at Locke, he made a huge difference. 499 00:24:31,267 --> 00:24:35,067 Speaker 20: Those guys looked ready to take on set everyia. Another 500 00:24:35,107 --> 00:24:36,507 Speaker 20: thing I loved was the refereeing. 501 00:24:37,267 --> 00:24:41,187 Speaker 7: He would let things go, there was no lead's stop 502 00:24:41,267 --> 00:24:41,907 Speaker 7: the whole game. 503 00:24:41,787 --> 00:24:44,347 Speaker 20: For five minutes, go to the video ref and do 504 00:24:44,547 --> 00:24:47,307 Speaker 20: that sort of thing for an English referee offer. That 505 00:24:47,387 --> 00:24:51,187 Speaker 20: was fantastically refereed last night in a really scattered game. 506 00:24:51,547 --> 00:24:54,107 Speaker 2: Yeah, a great Chris, although I do note I've been 507 00:24:54,147 --> 00:24:56,307 Speaker 2: having a look at some social media this morning, which 508 00:24:56,347 --> 00:24:58,707 Speaker 2: I probably shouldn't do. But a lot of South African 509 00:24:58,827 --> 00:25:01,427 Speaker 2: fans and maybe it's because they ended up losing the game, 510 00:25:01,907 --> 00:25:04,227 Speaker 2: not happy at all with Carl Dixon's performance last night. 511 00:25:04,267 --> 00:25:05,667 Speaker 2: I was like you, I thought he had a good game. 512 00:25:06,387 --> 00:25:09,667 Speaker 20: Yeah, he let it slow, because how you know, all 513 00:25:09,707 --> 00:25:12,187 Speaker 20: that rugby these days seems to be We've always got 514 00:25:12,267 --> 00:25:14,067 Speaker 20: to stop the game, go up to the video with 515 00:25:14,547 --> 00:25:17,707 Speaker 20: we see the referee on the screen, sold ten minutes 516 00:25:17,747 --> 00:25:20,827 Speaker 20: of the game deciding on things that just didn't happen 517 00:25:20,907 --> 00:25:24,147 Speaker 20: last night. When one of the spring blocks picked up 518 00:25:24,227 --> 00:25:26,627 Speaker 20: McKenzie put him on the vertical. He didn't need to 519 00:25:26,667 --> 00:25:27,987 Speaker 20: stop the game and go back and look at it. 520 00:25:28,067 --> 00:25:28,907 Speaker 13: He just let it play. 521 00:25:29,707 --> 00:25:33,147 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, No, I liked him, Yeah, I liked him. No, 522 00:25:33,587 --> 00:25:35,747 Speaker 2: there's great points. Chris, what do you Oh, you've gone? 523 00:25:35,747 --> 00:25:36,787 Speaker 2: I was going to ask you what you thought what 524 00:25:36,947 --> 00:25:40,467 Speaker 2: might happen next week? That is also a topic of 525 00:25:40,547 --> 00:25:42,707 Speaker 2: conversation we can get into today. I know it's the 526 00:25:42,787 --> 00:25:45,507 Speaker 2: day after eden Park, but it's the start of a 527 00:25:45,587 --> 00:25:48,667 Speaker 2: new week, and Tamoty Ellison even said as much. Didn't 528 00:25:48,707 --> 00:25:51,107 Speaker 2: he wakes up this morning and starts planning for the 529 00:25:51,227 --> 00:25:55,227 Speaker 2: next game, and you're wonder. I mean, there will absolutely 530 00:25:55,347 --> 00:25:58,547 Speaker 2: be a response from South Africa. I think a lot 531 00:25:58,587 --> 00:26:01,307 Speaker 2: of people before South Africa arrived thought the series might 532 00:26:01,347 --> 00:26:04,427 Speaker 2: be split one one and a lot of people who 533 00:26:04,507 --> 00:26:06,547 Speaker 2: did think that thought that the eden Park test was 534 00:26:06,587 --> 00:26:09,307 Speaker 2: the one the All Blacks would win for a variety 535 00:26:09,347 --> 00:26:11,667 Speaker 2: of reasons. But South Africa might bounce back in the 536 00:26:11,747 --> 00:26:14,227 Speaker 2: second I've got a pretty good record in Wellington have 537 00:26:14,507 --> 00:26:17,667 Speaker 2: South Africa, but the All Blacks will have you know 538 00:26:18,347 --> 00:26:21,947 Speaker 2: in their sights a two nil win over South Africa 539 00:26:22,187 --> 00:26:24,827 Speaker 2: in this little mini series that retained the Freedom Cup, 540 00:26:25,387 --> 00:26:27,707 Speaker 2: which has played for between the two. If South Africa 541 00:26:27,787 --> 00:26:30,067 Speaker 2: won last night, they would have taken over the Freedom Cup. 542 00:26:30,787 --> 00:26:34,387 Speaker 2: I saw the night run down and it said if 543 00:26:34,467 --> 00:26:36,627 Speaker 2: South Africa win the game, they retained the Freedom Cup. 544 00:26:37,187 --> 00:26:41,267 Speaker 2: Because obviously the All Blacks can't can't win the series 545 00:26:41,507 --> 00:26:44,187 Speaker 2: and South Africa hold it, so the Freedom Cup is 546 00:26:44,267 --> 00:26:47,507 Speaker 2: up for grabs as well. Attention Piney A few thoughts. 547 00:26:48,027 --> 00:26:50,267 Speaker 2: Full disclosure. I didn't think the All Blacks would improve 548 00:26:50,387 --> 00:26:52,307 Speaker 2: enough to beat South Africa last night. I'm happy to 549 00:26:52,347 --> 00:26:55,387 Speaker 2: be wrong on that one. The intensity of both teams 550 00:26:55,587 --> 00:26:58,347 Speaker 2: and the intelligence by the All Blacks has not been 551 00:26:58,387 --> 00:27:01,147 Speaker 2: seen since the last Rugby Cup World Cup Final Absolute 552 00:27:01,187 --> 00:27:04,827 Speaker 2: Test match. What was the hia count? This text goes 553 00:27:04,867 --> 00:27:07,587 Speaker 2: on to say a record perhaps that reflects the intensity 554 00:27:07,707 --> 00:27:09,987 Speaker 2: and the intent of the match, but might be a 555 00:27:10,067 --> 00:27:12,107 Speaker 2: red flag to those who have contact sport in their 556 00:27:12,147 --> 00:27:15,587 Speaker 2: cross heirs. Finally, I've heard the word joy used a 557 00:27:15,667 --> 00:27:18,627 Speaker 2: lot to describe the Women's Rugby World Cup. I suggest 558 00:27:18,867 --> 00:27:21,507 Speaker 2: makeship for the men's game. To see both teams willing 559 00:27:21,627 --> 00:27:25,747 Speaker 2: to sacrifice so completely for each other for eighty minutes 560 00:27:26,027 --> 00:27:28,587 Speaker 2: and then come together after the game was inspiring. To 561 00:27:28,627 --> 00:27:31,867 Speaker 2: see Jesse Kleil and see a Kalisi acknowledge Artie but 562 00:27:31,987 --> 00:27:35,947 Speaker 2: also his children and family. Shows the respect and camaraderie 563 00:27:35,987 --> 00:27:38,907 Speaker 2: between these men. Expecting more of the same next Saturday. 564 00:27:38,907 --> 00:27:41,467 Speaker 2: I can't wait. Good text, adent ready, good text. And 565 00:27:42,067 --> 00:27:44,187 Speaker 2: there was some social media footage this morning I saw 566 00:27:44,267 --> 00:27:48,747 Speaker 2: of one of Ardie Savier's children running up to see 567 00:27:48,747 --> 00:27:52,267 Speaker 2: a Kalisi after the game and saying uncle, seea uncle 568 00:27:52,387 --> 00:27:55,187 Speaker 2: Sea and jumping into his arms. Thought it was a 569 00:27:55,267 --> 00:27:56,147 Speaker 2: very heartwarming moment. 570 00:27:56,227 --> 00:27:59,267 Speaker 21: Hello Mark, good afternoon, buddy, How are you good? 571 00:27:59,307 --> 00:27:59,507 Speaker 2: Thank you? 572 00:28:00,587 --> 00:28:01,027 Speaker 5: That's good. 573 00:28:01,547 --> 00:28:04,947 Speaker 21: Everybody so far put those exact same four players who 574 00:28:04,987 --> 00:28:08,747 Speaker 21: I thought were instrument alas night, even though Ricco didn't 575 00:28:08,787 --> 00:28:12,587 Speaker 21: get many opportunities on the wing. But yeah, that tackle 576 00:28:12,707 --> 00:28:13,187 Speaker 21: was brilliant. 577 00:28:13,267 --> 00:28:15,627 Speaker 7: But I'd like to go back to before the game 578 00:28:15,667 --> 00:28:18,507 Speaker 7: even started. Gase Matt. 579 00:28:19,827 --> 00:28:23,027 Speaker 21: Singing of the national anthems was probably the best I've 580 00:28:23,187 --> 00:28:29,307 Speaker 21: ever heard for probably twenty years. Crystal Claire no screaming, 581 00:28:30,267 --> 00:28:33,747 Speaker 21: absolutely beautifully done for both national anthems. 582 00:28:34,187 --> 00:28:37,507 Speaker 2: Yeah agree, yeah, agree. I'm going to find out because 583 00:28:37,507 --> 00:28:39,867 Speaker 2: I want to give credit to the right people. I 584 00:28:40,067 --> 00:28:43,907 Speaker 2: was sent the name. They were secondary school singers. I'm 585 00:28:43,907 --> 00:28:46,107 Speaker 2: going to get the school right. But I agree, I 586 00:28:46,147 --> 00:28:47,587 Speaker 2: thought it was spine tingling stuff. 587 00:28:48,507 --> 00:28:53,427 Speaker 21: Oh have Pacifica Pacifica children's choir. I think they're called. 588 00:28:54,787 --> 00:28:56,667 Speaker 2: We'll check and make sure we get it right, Mark, 589 00:28:56,867 --> 00:29:00,307 Speaker 2: because you know, yeah, it's funny, isn't it. Often the 590 00:29:00,827 --> 00:29:03,027 Speaker 2: conversation goes to the anthems or the harker or whatever 591 00:29:03,067 --> 00:29:06,627 Speaker 2: it is. But no, it was good last night, really 592 00:29:06,827 --> 00:29:09,787 Speaker 2: was good man, Mark, Thanks for calling through us always. 593 00:29:10,227 --> 00:29:12,147 Speaker 2: I eight hundred and eighty ten eighty. For the first time. 594 00:29:12,267 --> 00:29:13,987 Speaker 2: We've got a spare line if you want to use it. 595 00:29:15,347 --> 00:29:17,187 Speaker 2: I eight hundred and eighty ten eighty who stood out 596 00:29:17,187 --> 00:29:18,867 Speaker 2: for you last night? I got a bunch of texts 597 00:29:18,907 --> 00:29:21,387 Speaker 2: here which I can get to, but keen to hear 598 00:29:21,427 --> 00:29:25,987 Speaker 2: your thoughts. There was pressure, massive pressure on this team 599 00:29:27,067 --> 00:29:33,027 Speaker 2: after what happened in Argentina. They were fully aware that 600 00:29:33,227 --> 00:29:37,427 Speaker 2: they let themselves down in the last test. They didn't 601 00:29:37,507 --> 00:29:40,587 Speaker 2: do themselves justice. They made a lot of errors. Their 602 00:29:40,627 --> 00:29:44,067 Speaker 2: discipline was no good After that test, I think, as 603 00:29:44,107 --> 00:29:46,947 Speaker 2: I said on the radio, maybe a day or two afterwards, 604 00:29:46,987 --> 00:29:49,627 Speaker 2: there was a lot of overreaction, if I'm honest, from 605 00:29:49,627 --> 00:29:52,067 Speaker 2: a lot of people who seem to think the sky 606 00:29:52,227 --> 00:29:54,307 Speaker 2: was going to fall in just because we've lost one game. 607 00:29:55,107 --> 00:29:58,827 Speaker 2: You balance that, of course, with you know, wanting to 608 00:29:58,907 --> 00:30:04,547 Speaker 2: critique this side and being absolutely within our rights to 609 00:30:04,627 --> 00:30:08,347 Speaker 2: do that. This is our team, the All Blacks. When 610 00:30:08,347 --> 00:30:10,227 Speaker 2: they don't play well, we are allowed to protect them 611 00:30:10,227 --> 00:30:13,147 Speaker 2: without actually, you know, going a little bit sort of 612 00:30:13,267 --> 00:30:16,507 Speaker 2: crazy and calling for heads left, right and center. The 613 00:30:16,587 --> 00:30:20,667 Speaker 2: All Blacks well aware of their shortcomings in Bueno series. 614 00:30:21,227 --> 00:30:24,107 Speaker 2: I think they did a lot last night to to 615 00:30:24,387 --> 00:30:26,147 Speaker 2: overcome some of those. I thought they were better in 616 00:30:26,227 --> 00:30:28,907 Speaker 2: the air. There's still some work to do there. I thought, 617 00:30:29,587 --> 00:30:32,707 Speaker 2: you know, that they were physical and their discipline was 618 00:30:32,747 --> 00:30:34,787 Speaker 2: certainly better. Not a yellow card to be seen for 619 00:30:34,787 --> 00:30:37,867 Speaker 2: an All Blacks player. Caugas Smith got one No one 620 00:30:37,907 --> 00:30:40,147 Speaker 2: from the All Blacks. Andrew Hea. 621 00:30:42,987 --> 00:30:44,987 Speaker 18: Just a couple of points from last night's game. I 622 00:30:45,067 --> 00:30:48,987 Speaker 18: was lucky enough to be at the game. Everyone's saying 623 00:30:49,067 --> 00:30:55,747 Speaker 18: here Roll Scott Bert and Adisavieray and both disagree. However, 624 00:30:55,787 --> 00:31:02,187 Speaker 18: I thought Simon Parker was nic really when probably a 625 00:31:02,347 --> 00:31:03,187 Speaker 18: new second. 626 00:31:02,907 --> 00:31:07,027 Speaker 2: Games, second test yet bang On, what a. 627 00:31:07,067 --> 00:31:10,987 Speaker 18: Beast, and I thought it, Yeah, you kind of backed 628 00:31:11,067 --> 00:31:13,627 Speaker 18: up Ali and yeah, had a fantastic game. 629 00:31:13,907 --> 00:31:16,387 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I was. I was really pleased for him 630 00:31:16,387 --> 00:31:19,067 Speaker 2: to Andrew. You know, he that the All Black selectors 631 00:31:19,147 --> 00:31:21,907 Speaker 2: really like Simon Parker. If they had the opportunity to 632 00:31:21,907 --> 00:31:24,507 Speaker 2: pick him against France, they would have. He was injured 633 00:31:24,507 --> 00:31:25,867 Speaker 2: a course at the back end of the Super Rugby 634 00:31:25,907 --> 00:31:28,227 Speaker 2: season and couldn't play against France, but they were very 635 00:31:28,307 --> 00:31:30,947 Speaker 2: keen to get him in there. And you know, I 636 00:31:31,347 --> 00:31:33,867 Speaker 2: also thought and be interested to hear what you think 637 00:31:33,947 --> 00:31:35,827 Speaker 2: on this. I thought they were all in on Tupai 638 00:31:35,867 --> 00:31:38,267 Speaker 2: at number six. I thought they had decided he's the 639 00:31:38,347 --> 00:31:41,307 Speaker 2: number six. But back into the second row where he 640 00:31:41,347 --> 00:31:44,107 Speaker 2: played well again and Simon Parker big body. I thought 641 00:31:44,147 --> 00:31:47,907 Speaker 2: the loose Trio Parker savit. I really liked it. 642 00:31:49,067 --> 00:31:50,027 Speaker 18: Yeah, No, it was awesome. 643 00:31:51,107 --> 00:31:51,267 Speaker 3: Yeah. 644 00:31:51,307 --> 00:31:53,787 Speaker 18: I thought it was quite brave to put Tupu in 645 00:31:53,867 --> 00:31:59,067 Speaker 18: it to help out mister Barrett in the second row, 646 00:31:59,467 --> 00:32:04,387 Speaker 18: especially after well how well Fabian Piland played and the 647 00:32:04,467 --> 00:32:06,587 Speaker 18: few tests prior to that. So it was quit a 648 00:32:06,667 --> 00:32:09,187 Speaker 18: brave move and haven't certainly paid off. 649 00:32:09,987 --> 00:32:12,387 Speaker 2: Good thoughts Andrew, well made, mate, Thank you for calling through. 650 00:32:12,507 --> 00:32:15,227 Speaker 2: Call back any time nineteen away from one back with 651 00:32:15,307 --> 00:32:17,787 Speaker 2: more of your thoughts after this on weekend sport here 652 00:32:17,827 --> 00:32:21,507 Speaker 2: on news talks, he'd be the big issues on and 653 00:32:21,907 --> 00:32:22,707 Speaker 2: after fields. 654 00:32:22,787 --> 00:32:25,587 Speaker 1: Call oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty weekends Forward with 655 00:32:25,787 --> 00:32:29,587 Speaker 1: Jason Fain and GJ.

Yeah, I'd like to endorse that 667 00:33:04,227 --> 00:33:06,907 Speaker 22: about the anthem, but I thought I what they sang 668 00:33:06,987 --> 00:33:10,067 Speaker 22: the South African one more professionally they did the second 669 00:33:10,107 --> 00:33:13,227 Speaker 22: they were trying to do a few variations with ours, 670 00:33:13,267 --> 00:33:15,667 Speaker 22: and itn't didn't seem to come off quite as well. 671 00:33:15,747 --> 00:33:18,467 Speaker 22: I thought that South Africa was absolutely beautiful. But anyway, 672 00:33:18,987 --> 00:33:22,107 Speaker 22: on the subject of South Africa, their strengths and what 673 00:33:22,267 --> 00:33:26,787 Speaker 22: we need to be worried about going forward. You know 674 00:33:27,147 --> 00:33:30,987 Speaker 22: that kitchen sink called Quago smith Man. When he comes on, 675 00:33:31,827 --> 00:33:33,827 Speaker 22: he's almost unsoppable. 676 00:33:33,907 --> 00:33:36,787 Speaker 2: Isn't the force of nature? Absolute force of nature? In fact, 677 00:33:36,787 --> 00:33:39,947 Speaker 2: it was quite handy. He got yellow carded you it was. 678 00:33:40,027 --> 00:33:42,667 Speaker 22: Indeed, I was worried when I threw him back on 679 00:33:42,747 --> 00:33:46,547 Speaker 22: the field of Oh, I watch out, and we're going 680 00:33:46,627 --> 00:33:48,427 Speaker 22: to need a We're going to need to do a 681 00:33:48,507 --> 00:33:50,867 Speaker 22: little bit of work on that area in that area, 682 00:33:50,907 --> 00:33:54,147 Speaker 22: because they know they pushed us off the ball a 683 00:33:54,187 --> 00:33:57,027 Speaker 22: couple of times, didn't they as well? So I don't 684 00:33:57,027 --> 00:34:00,627 Speaker 22: know whether that's technique or strength. It's probably technique, I 685 00:34:00,747 --> 00:34:01,067 Speaker 22: think so. 686 00:34:01,307 --> 00:34:04,667 Speaker 2: And yeah, I know the scrum you're referring to, because 687 00:34:05,267 --> 00:34:07,987 Speaker 2: it was so I care they just walked over the 688 00:34:08,067 --> 00:34:09,987 Speaker 2: top of us and got a tight head, which is 689 00:34:10,107 --> 00:34:13,027 Speaker 2: so rare these days. And top level rugby and it 690 00:34:13,147 --> 00:34:16,427 Speaker 2: led to it led indirectly to a tribe. I'm not 691 00:34:16,467 --> 00:34:17,987 Speaker 2: sure if you heard during the week, but the All 692 00:34:18,027 --> 00:34:21,907 Speaker 2: Blacks were actually training, the eight who were starting the 693 00:34:22,027 --> 00:34:25,827 Speaker 2: test were training against ten man scrums, so just to 694 00:34:25,867 --> 00:34:28,267 Speaker 2: get ready for the physicality that South Africa would bring. 695 00:34:29,387 --> 00:34:31,587 Speaker 2: They certainly they got a big shove on on that one. 696 00:34:31,627 --> 00:34:34,547 Speaker 2: But I think, like you say, it's probably technique as 697 00:34:34,627 --> 00:34:36,347 Speaker 2: much at it as it is brute strength. 698 00:34:37,147 --> 00:34:41,547 Speaker 22: And also I think the slippery underfoot. I think if you, 699 00:34:41,587 --> 00:34:43,787 Speaker 22: if you're smart and you picked the moment you can, 700 00:34:43,987 --> 00:34:45,987 Speaker 22: you can you can get a great advantage if you 701 00:34:46,507 --> 00:34:48,427 Speaker 22: if you hit, if you hit it before they're ready. 702 00:34:49,267 --> 00:34:52,907 Speaker 2: Absolutely right, good, good observations in and let's let's see 703 00:34:52,907 --> 00:34:55,747 Speaker 2: what happens next week. That's the other exciting thing. We 704 00:34:55,867 --> 00:34:58,947 Speaker 2: get round two in six days time. Hey, Scott. 705 00:35:00,347 --> 00:35:01,787 Speaker 9: A Piney just just. 706 00:35:01,827 --> 00:35:05,267 Speaker 23: One point mate, and it goes off to Razor for 707 00:35:06,587 --> 00:35:09,867 Speaker 23: faith in finlay Christie to have the third rate half 708 00:35:09,947 --> 00:35:12,627 Speaker 23: back on. I thought he did an amazing job. And 709 00:35:12,747 --> 00:35:17,147 Speaker 23: then to have faith and bring in sorry, the reserve halfback. 710 00:35:17,187 --> 00:35:17,947 Speaker 23: His name eludes me. 711 00:35:18,147 --> 00:35:22,787 Speaker 2: Yeah, Kyle Preston. Kyle Preston, yep, Yeah, With twenty. 712 00:35:22,507 --> 00:35:24,467 Speaker 23: Minutes to go and have faith in him. He could 713 00:35:24,507 --> 00:35:27,147 Speaker 23: have stayed with Christie and he would have done the job, 714 00:35:27,227 --> 00:35:29,507 Speaker 23: but to have faith in him to play twenty minutes 715 00:35:29,707 --> 00:35:31,987 Speaker 23: at that critical point of the game was awesome. 716 00:35:32,187 --> 00:35:35,307 Speaker 2: Yeah, it could well be a seminal moment for Kyle Preston. 717 00:35:35,347 --> 00:35:38,107 Speaker 2: You're right, though, Scott. You know phil Ay Christy at 718 00:35:38,187 --> 00:35:40,507 Speaker 2: best the fourth choice half back at the start of 719 00:35:40,547 --> 00:35:43,067 Speaker 2: this year. I've said this. You know, Razor picked three 720 00:35:43,147 --> 00:35:45,027 Speaker 2: others ruped to a roy Guard host them ahead of them, 721 00:35:45,067 --> 00:35:47,947 Speaker 2: so he knew in the coach's mind he was only fourth, 722 00:35:48,267 --> 00:35:49,267 Speaker 2: but I thought he was. 723 00:35:49,387 --> 00:35:49,547 Speaker 13: You know. 724 00:35:49,947 --> 00:35:52,307 Speaker 2: Yes, he got into a couple of scraps at the 725 00:35:52,307 --> 00:35:54,467 Speaker 2: base of rucks and a couple of his kicks weren't 726 00:35:54,547 --> 00:35:57,347 Speaker 2: quite as accurate as he probably would have hoped, But 727 00:35:57,467 --> 00:35:59,507 Speaker 2: I thought I thought he gave a good account of himself. 728 00:35:59,587 --> 00:36:01,987 Speaker 2: And Preston coming on icing on the cake in a 729 00:36:02,067 --> 00:36:03,027 Speaker 2: debut for that kid too. 730 00:36:04,507 --> 00:36:08,667 Speaker 23: Yeah, totally mate. So I look forward to seeing those two. 731 00:36:08,787 --> 00:36:10,547 Speaker 23: I have another own next week hopefully. 732 00:36:10,707 --> 00:36:13,067 Speaker 2: Yeah, good stuff, Scott, I do too. I think what 733 00:36:13,187 --> 00:36:14,907 Speaker 2: it does also is it means you don't really have 734 00:36:14,987 --> 00:36:17,027 Speaker 2: to rush courtiez Well after my back. If he's not right, 735 00:36:17,627 --> 00:36:20,507 Speaker 2: you say, okay, well you know we've got Christine in Priceton. 736 00:36:20,707 --> 00:36:23,707 Speaker 2: No need to necessarily rush back a guy who's got 737 00:36:23,747 --> 00:36:24,547 Speaker 2: a band to the rooms. 738 00:36:24,787 --> 00:36:28,867 Speaker 24: Hey, Pete, okay, Bonnie, it's a bit of a stressful 739 00:36:28,907 --> 00:36:29,627 Speaker 24: game last night. 740 00:36:32,147 --> 00:36:36,307 Speaker 2: It was Pete here. The news were jangling, mate, ah. 741 00:36:37,187 --> 00:36:39,067 Speaker 24: And some way just shouldn't say they were lucky to 742 00:36:39,107 --> 00:36:43,067 Speaker 24: pull it off at the end. So they came back fighting. 743 00:36:43,547 --> 00:36:47,227 Speaker 24: But just regarding the with the kicking last night, I'm 744 00:36:47,267 --> 00:36:52,467 Speaker 24: pleased that Raiser didn't give boy you the kicking game 745 00:36:52,627 --> 00:36:55,427 Speaker 24: last night. I didn't play that good with the art detainers. 746 00:36:55,707 --> 00:36:58,747 Speaker 24: It cost out the game that he knows that. Then 747 00:36:58,787 --> 00:37:01,547 Speaker 24: he gave it to Geordie as well. So I'm pleased 748 00:37:01,547 --> 00:37:04,107 Speaker 24: that Damian's got his kicking shoes. 749 00:37:03,867 --> 00:37:04,907 Speaker 5: Back on the year. 750 00:37:05,867 --> 00:37:08,947 Speaker 24: Yes, I still reckon. You might not like I stay here, 751 00:37:08,987 --> 00:37:11,187 Speaker 24: but I still reckon. Dane mckenj is still a more 752 00:37:11,227 --> 00:37:14,147 Speaker 24: consistent kicker than my boat. And that's just my point 753 00:37:14,187 --> 00:37:14,427 Speaker 24: of view. 754 00:37:14,627 --> 00:37:16,307 Speaker 2: No, pet I don't. I don't mind that point of 755 00:37:16,347 --> 00:37:18,667 Speaker 2: view at all. In fact, I think you the stats 756 00:37:18,707 --> 00:37:22,027 Speaker 2: would probably back you up. So yeah, it's just I 757 00:37:22,067 --> 00:37:25,067 Speaker 2: guess it's getting them both on the same side. You know, 758 00:37:25,187 --> 00:37:28,027 Speaker 2: Damien came on last night earlier than everybody expected because 759 00:37:28,067 --> 00:37:30,307 Speaker 2: of the injury to Emany Nadaway, and that just happened 760 00:37:30,347 --> 00:37:33,067 Speaker 2: to be, you know, handy from a kicking point of view. 761 00:37:33,067 --> 00:37:35,627 Speaker 2: You're right. It was a really interesting comment made by 762 00:37:35,707 --> 00:37:38,947 Speaker 2: Body during the week about his kicking in Argentina, and 763 00:37:39,027 --> 00:37:40,987 Speaker 2: it was a bit it was a bit cryptic. He said, 764 00:37:41,347 --> 00:37:44,267 Speaker 2: I had an issue which I'm not willing to go into, 765 00:37:44,627 --> 00:37:47,147 Speaker 2: about my kicking, and I don't know what that is. 766 00:37:47,747 --> 00:37:50,227 Speaker 2: If he's carrying a knock, I don't know. But yeah, 767 00:37:50,267 --> 00:37:52,787 Speaker 2: but Jordie and then Damien, Yeah, kicked the points last night, 768 00:37:52,827 --> 00:37:54,267 Speaker 2: which which proved to be pretty. 769 00:37:54,067 --> 00:37:58,307 Speaker 24: Crucially But even Damien the I don't care. He's a 770 00:37:58,387 --> 00:38:00,987 Speaker 24: tough little bug of that guy. I give them full credit. Ye, 771 00:38:01,387 --> 00:38:03,747 Speaker 24: he's out and about and he's not scaring those high 772 00:38:03,827 --> 00:38:05,507 Speaker 24: tacking He's a little weed. End of the day. That 773 00:38:05,627 --> 00:38:07,147 Speaker 24: many a strong You can't kill him. 774 00:38:07,787 --> 00:38:10,307 Speaker 2: Love it, Pete, love it, mate. What a great analogy. Yeah, 775 00:38:10,347 --> 00:38:13,347 Speaker 2: And and him climbing. I remember one specific incident last 776 00:38:13,427 --> 00:38:15,387 Speaker 2: night when he climbed into the air and Tarmody Ellison 777 00:38:15,427 --> 00:38:17,267 Speaker 2: backed it up. You know you've got no protection up there. 778 00:38:17,347 --> 00:38:20,867 Speaker 2: Now you're up in the air and guys are closing 779 00:38:20,947 --> 00:38:22,387 Speaker 2: in on you, and you know you're going to get 780 00:38:22,467 --> 00:38:25,307 Speaker 2: it as soon as your feet at the ground. Very courageous, 781 00:38:25,307 --> 00:38:28,667 Speaker 2: I thought last night under the high ball, Damien McKenzie. Chris, Hello, 782 00:38:30,707 --> 00:38:31,227 Speaker 2: how are you good? 783 00:38:31,307 --> 00:38:31,467 Speaker 13: Mate? 784 00:38:31,507 --> 00:38:31,667 Speaker 7: Good? 785 00:38:33,347 --> 00:38:34,307 Speaker 17: You got a lot to talk about. 786 00:38:34,347 --> 00:38:36,387 Speaker 7: But guess I'm just my biggest confusion is this. 787 00:38:36,827 --> 00:38:40,547 Speaker 25: Box kicking strategy where it becomes a big component now. 788 00:38:40,507 --> 00:38:41,387 Speaker 14: With you know, territory. 789 00:38:41,947 --> 00:38:44,307 Speaker 25: I just feel like it's such a lottery and you're 790 00:38:44,347 --> 00:38:48,067 Speaker 25: giving these guys not only positioned potentially that fifty to 791 00:38:48,147 --> 00:38:51,787 Speaker 25: fifty scenario. It just doesn't sit well for me in 792 00:38:51,907 --> 00:38:54,067 Speaker 25: terms of the game plan, and you know, the amount 793 00:38:54,067 --> 00:38:56,267 Speaker 25: of time's fin lay head to kick we get there, 794 00:38:56,307 --> 00:38:59,067 Speaker 25: so they needed it territory, but it becomes quite a 795 00:38:59,147 --> 00:39:01,547 Speaker 25: boring spectacle, and I just wonder, you know, what what 796 00:39:01,707 --> 00:39:04,547 Speaker 25: the what the Ethoughts sought their vision is around there? 797 00:39:04,827 --> 00:39:07,307 Speaker 2: Yeah, Chris, it's a It's a topic we could talk 798 00:39:07,307 --> 00:39:12,147 Speaker 2: about for hours. The basic philosophy as you as you've 799 00:39:12,507 --> 00:39:14,147 Speaker 2: picked up on is that you know, you get a 800 00:39:14,187 --> 00:39:16,587 Speaker 2: bit of territory and you very rarely see them box 801 00:39:16,667 --> 00:39:18,867 Speaker 2: kick in the opposition half, don't you. It's when you're 802 00:39:18,907 --> 00:39:21,107 Speaker 2: in your own half your box kick you give yourself 803 00:39:21,147 --> 00:39:24,147 Speaker 2: a fifty to fifty chance. But that depends on having chases. 804 00:39:24,627 --> 00:39:24,867 Speaker 1: It is. 805 00:39:25,027 --> 00:39:29,107 Speaker 2: I think lottery is a good word, mate, and strategy wise, 806 00:39:29,467 --> 00:39:32,427 Speaker 2: I think we'll continue to see it because they'll roll 807 00:39:32,467 --> 00:39:34,067 Speaker 2: the dice and say, well, if we get better with 808 00:39:34,147 --> 00:39:36,547 Speaker 2: our chase and knock it back, then we do gain 809 00:39:36,587 --> 00:39:38,667 Speaker 2: the territory and we get the ball back, even though 810 00:39:38,667 --> 00:39:41,147 Speaker 2: it's not much more than a fifty to fifty proposition. 811 00:39:41,987 --> 00:39:42,707 Speaker 16: Yeah, I hear that. 812 00:39:42,827 --> 00:39:45,107 Speaker 25: I guess you know in terms of you know, the 813 00:39:45,227 --> 00:39:48,347 Speaker 25: coaching personnel. You know, at Tech Defense, we've got some 814 00:39:48,427 --> 00:39:50,467 Speaker 25: big boys there. So if we can hit some pods 815 00:39:50,827 --> 00:39:53,747 Speaker 25: and some back plays or just break that advantage line 816 00:39:54,027 --> 00:39:56,827 Speaker 25: from the ruck, I just think we've got more empetus and. 817 00:39:56,907 --> 00:40:00,067 Speaker 2: More go for it. Yeah, Chris, even as you're saying it, 818 00:40:00,107 --> 00:40:03,147 Speaker 2: I'm nodding, mate, Absolutely, there are many ways to gain territory, 819 00:40:03,307 --> 00:40:07,387 Speaker 2: and the way you've just outlined keeps balling hand. So yeah, 820 00:40:07,387 --> 00:40:08,907 Speaker 2: it'll be interesting to see how they evolved. 821 00:40:08,947 --> 00:40:12,987 Speaker 25: A Another one, Mate, was just the Argentinian game. So 822 00:40:13,107 --> 00:40:15,467 Speaker 25: it's you WoT a beast, mate. You know a center 823 00:40:15,507 --> 00:40:17,667 Speaker 25: who just continues to ask questions of the defense, and 824 00:40:18,427 --> 00:40:19,867 Speaker 25: you know he picked up a double last. 825 00:40:19,747 --> 00:40:20,627 Speaker 11: Night, and jeez, he looks good. 826 00:40:20,667 --> 00:40:22,667 Speaker 2: They're a good team, Chris, They're a good team.

What was it like being in 892 00:43:23,107 --> 00:43:23,547 Speaker 2: that team? 893 00:43:25,547 --> 00:43:29,267 Speaker 7: It was amazing, you know. Look, I was for a 894 00:43:29,347 --> 00:43:32,427 Speaker 7: lot large period of that. I was always on the bench, 895 00:43:32,547 --> 00:43:37,347 Speaker 7: you know, but being part of it was awesome. Certainly, 896 00:43:37,387 --> 00:43:42,507 Speaker 7: wouldn't take it. I have fond memories or memories of 897 00:43:42,587 --> 00:43:45,507 Speaker 7: it which I won't forget, you know, you know, sure 898 00:43:45,547 --> 00:43:47,307 Speaker 7: I would have liked to have played more games, but 899 00:43:47,547 --> 00:43:51,827 Speaker 7: you know, it was a very competitive team with a 900 00:43:51,907 --> 00:43:54,507 Speaker 7: lot of good players who were sitting on the bench 901 00:43:54,587 --> 00:43:58,587 Speaker 7: as well, So he will never forget that. 902 00:43:59,107 --> 00:44:00,987 Speaker 2: Yeah, I love watching that team. And as you say, 903 00:44:00,987 --> 00:44:02,827 Speaker 2: you just needed Grant Fox or pull a hamstring or two, 904 00:44:02,827 --> 00:44:04,507 Speaker 2: didn't you, and you would have got more games. But 905 00:44:05,667 --> 00:44:09,147 Speaker 2: watching those good to be very did deserved to be 906 00:44:09,307 --> 00:44:11,547 Speaker 2: in front of the Well. I think a lot of 907 00:44:11,547 --> 00:44:13,027 Speaker 2: people just like the way you played the game, and 908 00:44:13,067 --> 00:44:15,667 Speaker 2: we saw we saw it mainly on those those tours 909 00:44:15,667 --> 00:44:18,547 Speaker 2: where you played midweek games, and and yeah, we're just anyway, 910 00:44:19,027 --> 00:44:20,587 Speaker 2: we don't want to rumin us too much. You've been 911 00:44:20,627 --> 00:44:23,427 Speaker 2: doing that over the last week or so. So let's 912 00:44:23,467 --> 00:44:24,707 Speaker 2: move to the present day. What did you make of 913 00:44:24,747 --> 00:44:26,387 Speaker 2: the win last night by the All Blacks over the 914 00:44:26,427 --> 00:44:26,987 Speaker 2: spring Boks. 915 00:44:28,667 --> 00:44:31,627 Speaker 16: I thought it was It's exactly what we needed. 916 00:44:31,987 --> 00:44:34,867 Speaker 7: I think that most of us were of the same 917 00:44:34,947 --> 00:44:36,707 Speaker 7: opinion that it was going to be a tough game, 918 00:44:36,787 --> 00:44:38,907 Speaker 7: that was always going to be a close game, and 919 00:44:38,947 --> 00:44:42,987 Speaker 7: there would be some small mistakes that would cost either side. 920 00:44:43,427 --> 00:44:43,587 Speaker 5: You know. 921 00:44:43,787 --> 00:44:48,747 Speaker 7: Unfortunately, we got off to a fantastic start and managed 922 00:44:48,747 --> 00:44:51,467 Speaker 7: to hold on there, but then we also could have 923 00:44:51,507 --> 00:44:53,547 Speaker 7: lost it in those last few minutes and it wasn't 924 00:44:53,587 --> 00:45:03,267 Speaker 7: for our our savior of h Savia. You know, he 925 00:45:03,467 --> 00:45:05,467 Speaker 7: pulled out, he pulled something out of the out of 926 00:45:05,507 --> 00:45:08,027 Speaker 7: the bag by steal that ball, and you know, they 927 00:45:08,147 --> 00:45:09,027 Speaker 7: could have been a drawer. 928 00:45:09,787 --> 00:45:14,307 Speaker 2: What do you make of box kicking? Fronto and teams 929 00:45:14,427 --> 00:45:15,707 Speaker 2: using it quite regularly? 930 00:45:15,787 --> 00:45:15,907 Speaker 26: Now? 931 00:45:15,907 --> 00:45:17,387 Speaker 2: A lot of our listeners are big fans of the 932 00:45:17,427 --> 00:45:18,827 Speaker 2: box kick? What about you? 933 00:45:20,667 --> 00:45:20,867 Speaker 22: Nah? 934 00:45:21,267 --> 00:45:26,427 Speaker 7: Nah, I'm not. It's not quite a bit. It's every time. 935 00:45:28,227 --> 00:45:31,587 Speaker 7: And obviously the spring boxer a lot better with the 936 00:45:31,707 --> 00:45:33,867 Speaker 7: ball in the end than we are, and they're probably 937 00:45:33,907 --> 00:45:35,947 Speaker 7: better than any other team in the in the world. 938 00:45:36,067 --> 00:45:38,227 Speaker 7: You know, there are a couple of times in the 939 00:45:38,307 --> 00:45:40,747 Speaker 7: game where I thought we you know, we got to 940 00:45:40,787 --> 00:45:43,467 Speaker 7: turnover ball. One was in our own twenty two and 941 00:45:43,587 --> 00:45:46,827 Speaker 7: they had like three or four big forwards out in 942 00:45:46,867 --> 00:45:49,307 Speaker 7: the back line and we had three backs behind the 943 00:45:49,347 --> 00:45:51,787 Speaker 7: scrum and a couple of backs out wider when we 944 00:45:51,987 --> 00:45:54,267 Speaker 7: and those are the sort of opportunities that we need 945 00:45:54,387 --> 00:45:57,867 Speaker 7: to look at, whether it's at that level or not, 946 00:45:58,187 --> 00:46:01,747 Speaker 7: and go, well, the chances of us breaking here are 947 00:46:01,787 --> 00:46:05,307 Speaker 7: pretty good, and if not then we'll get tackled, we'll 948 00:46:05,347 --> 00:46:07,827 Speaker 7: secure the triumph, secure the ball and the end kick it. 949 00:46:08,987 --> 00:46:11,587 Speaker 7: But but they should you know, this is my own opinion, 950 00:46:11,627 --> 00:46:14,627 Speaker 7: but they should actually look to have a go first 951 00:46:14,667 --> 00:46:18,547 Speaker 7: and if it's not on then then then try something else. 952 00:46:18,627 --> 00:46:20,787 Speaker 7: But yeah, I mean the French, for example, do a 953 00:46:20,827 --> 00:46:23,427 Speaker 7: lot of those little chip kicks. Body does it every 954 00:46:23,467 --> 00:46:27,907 Speaker 7: now and then and you know it's done well. They're 955 00:46:28,027 --> 00:46:28,667 Speaker 7: very effective. 956 00:46:29,387 --> 00:46:31,747 Speaker 2: What about under the high ball as a as a 957 00:46:31,827 --> 00:46:33,867 Speaker 2: defender front o, you know you had to had to 958 00:46:33,867 --> 00:46:36,627 Speaker 2: field a lot of high kicks in both codes. What 959 00:46:36,947 --> 00:46:40,387 Speaker 2: what are the main things you need to do well 960 00:46:40,907 --> 00:46:43,187 Speaker 2: to be good as a defender under the high ball? 961 00:46:44,507 --> 00:46:46,907 Speaker 7: Well, obviously you need to keep your eye on the ball. 962 00:46:48,107 --> 00:46:51,067 Speaker 7: It depends how much momentum you have coming into the ball. 963 00:46:51,107 --> 00:46:54,227 Speaker 7: If you're standing there and trying to jump, then the 964 00:46:54,387 --> 00:46:58,107 Speaker 7: person running at you and and jumping is always going 965 00:46:58,147 --> 00:47:01,107 Speaker 7: to get higher or add one more mean to vote 966 00:47:01,147 --> 00:47:05,027 Speaker 7: towards the ball than you are. So it's tricky, and 967 00:47:05,147 --> 00:47:07,147 Speaker 7: especially if you're a little follow it makes it a 968 00:47:07,227 --> 00:47:09,107 Speaker 7: lot harder. You've got a time it so that you 969 00:47:09,187 --> 00:47:11,747 Speaker 7: can run into it and jump as well. 970 00:47:11,867 --> 00:47:13,707 Speaker 2: You know, you say you got to keep your eye 971 00:47:13,707 --> 00:47:16,227 Speaker 2: on the ball. It seems I would I would. 972 00:47:15,987 --> 00:47:20,907 Speaker 7: Say, well, although I was I had the opportunity to 973 00:47:21,267 --> 00:47:23,587 Speaker 7: catch a number of balls, I wouldn't say I was 974 00:47:23,587 --> 00:47:25,587 Speaker 7: the greatest. We didn't practice as much as they do 975 00:47:25,747 --> 00:47:28,627 Speaker 7: these days to catch it, So I've got an excuse 976 00:47:28,707 --> 00:47:31,787 Speaker 7: I didn't practice as much fool fellers and these fellow's 977 00:47:31,827 --> 00:47:34,547 Speaker 7: got nothing else to do training except practice there and 978 00:47:34,627 --> 00:47:35,427 Speaker 7: a few other things. 979 00:47:37,987 --> 00:47:39,707 Speaker 2: You must say, you keep it on the ball, that's 980 00:47:39,787 --> 00:47:41,667 Speaker 2: very good advice. But but when they when you got 981 00:47:41,747 --> 00:47:44,587 Speaker 2: guys hearing at you at you know, we're just waiting 982 00:47:44,627 --> 00:47:46,307 Speaker 2: for you to catch it hit the ground, and then 983 00:47:46,307 --> 00:47:48,907 Speaker 2: they're gonna bang hit you. You must have a wee 984 00:47:49,027 --> 00:47:50,707 Speaker 2: look do you to see these guys coming. 985 00:47:51,667 --> 00:47:52,627 Speaker 7: You're the ones who have a wee? 986 00:47:52,747 --> 00:47:53,907 Speaker 24: Look are the ones who drop it? 987 00:47:58,787 --> 00:47:59,307 Speaker 5: Love it?

I can't believe 1163 00:55:38,587 --> 00:55:43,747 Speaker 2: that they parked me up in a pub four hundred 1164 00:55:43,787 --> 00:55:46,427 Speaker 2: meters from Eden Park to do a build up to 1165 00:55:46,507 --> 00:55:49,427 Speaker 2: a Test match between the All Blacks and South Africa. 1166 00:55:50,547 --> 00:55:53,747 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, if I told eight year old 1167 00:55:53,827 --> 00:55:55,587 Speaker 2: me that that's what I'd be doing, well, first of all, 1168 00:55:55,627 --> 00:55:56,987 Speaker 2: eight year old me wouldn't have known what I was 1169 00:55:57,027 --> 00:56:00,987 Speaker 2: talking about. But just feel so lucky, so fortunate to 1170 00:56:01,067 --> 00:56:02,787 Speaker 2: get the chance to do it where it shed twenty 1171 00:56:02,907 --> 00:56:06,507 Speaker 2: two again next weekend and Wellington ahead of Test two 1172 00:56:06,627 --> 00:56:09,747 Speaker 2: between the All Blacks and the spring Box. Yes, your 1173 00:56:09,747 --> 00:56:11,347 Speaker 2: pop down, George, come and say today. 1174 00:56:12,907 --> 00:56:13,307 Speaker 5: I think I. 1175 00:56:13,347 --> 00:56:16,547 Speaker 16: Certainly will piney after after last nights if it's in 1176 00:56:16,627 --> 00:56:19,547 Speaker 16: hearing your show from from the Kingslander yesterday that was 1177 00:56:19,787 --> 00:56:20,427 Speaker 16: that was amazing. 1178 00:56:20,747 --> 00:56:21,467 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was good fun. 1179 00:56:22,427 --> 00:56:25,187 Speaker 16: Yeah, definitely was. I know you had one hundred cools yesterday, 1180 00:56:25,227 --> 00:56:27,627 Speaker 16: but I was. I was one of them saying I 1181 00:56:27,667 --> 00:56:30,627 Speaker 16: couldn't see the All Blacks getting rolled last night and 1182 00:56:31,107 --> 00:56:34,387 Speaker 16: that mindset say that was just that was just brilliant. 1183 00:56:34,427 --> 00:56:36,827 Speaker 16: And you kind of compare that that intensity and that 1184 00:56:37,707 --> 00:56:41,427 Speaker 16: that mental attitude in the Argentina. 1185 00:56:40,947 --> 00:56:42,227 Speaker 9: Game and it and it is. 1186 00:56:43,147 --> 00:56:45,827 Speaker 16: It is leaps and bounds difference. I think the big 1187 00:56:45,947 --> 00:56:47,987 Speaker 16: challenge for the All Blacks now is how do they 1188 00:56:48,307 --> 00:56:51,947 Speaker 16: try and keep that level of mental prep consistent. I 1189 00:56:52,027 --> 00:56:54,467 Speaker 16: think in the in the last couple of years, the 1190 00:56:54,587 --> 00:56:57,187 Speaker 16: times and they had frustrated us is in the stakes 1191 00:56:57,187 --> 00:56:59,747 Speaker 16: are not as high, and they've put out some clunky 1192 00:56:59,867 --> 00:57:01,867 Speaker 16: performances and does feel like there's a bit of a 1193 00:57:02,707 --> 00:57:05,547 Speaker 16: bit of mental application there because you know, we've shine 1194 00:57:05,587 --> 00:57:09,147 Speaker 16: in the quarter five and last night in South Africa 1195 00:57:09,187 --> 00:57:11,467 Speaker 16: when Fozzy was under pressure that they can pull out 1196 00:57:11,507 --> 00:57:14,867 Speaker 16: these performances, and I guess the Jeressey does demand those 1197 00:57:14,907 --> 00:57:16,587 Speaker 16: week and week out, so it'll be great to see 1198 00:57:16,627 --> 00:57:18,067 Speaker 16: how they back it. 1199 00:57:18,107 --> 00:57:18,587 Speaker 5: Up this week. 1200 00:57:19,067 --> 00:57:21,147 Speaker 2: Great point, George, because I think last night was one 1201 00:57:21,187 --> 00:57:24,427 Speaker 2: of those, wasn't it. It was an occasion that demanded 1202 00:57:24,507 --> 00:57:26,987 Speaker 2: that performance from the All Blacks almost a force higher 1203 00:57:26,987 --> 00:57:30,707 Speaker 2: than themselves, you know, to just by any means possible 1204 00:57:30,867 --> 00:57:33,867 Speaker 2: and any way necessary, win the game of rugby. And 1205 00:57:34,347 --> 00:57:37,267 Speaker 2: you're right now. The very very intriguing part of this 1206 00:57:37,307 --> 00:57:39,067 Speaker 2: will be how they play next week. What are you 1207 00:57:39,147 --> 00:57:41,907 Speaker 2: thinking in terms of can you see any changes? You 1208 00:57:41,947 --> 00:57:44,427 Speaker 2: reckon they'll roll out pretty much the same fifteen and 1209 00:57:44,467 --> 00:57:47,227 Speaker 2: twenty three. I know another one might be under an 1210 00:57:47,227 --> 00:57:49,147 Speaker 2: injury cloud, and Nook, I think Cody Taylor as well 1211 00:57:49,187 --> 00:57:52,867 Speaker 2: with his hia might be might be under an injury cloud, 1212 00:57:52,947 --> 00:57:56,307 Speaker 2: but injuries aside. Do you expect a similar team next week? 1213 00:57:57,707 --> 00:57:57,947 Speaker 5: I do. 1214 00:57:58,307 --> 00:58:00,547 Speaker 16: I reckon they'll go very similar in the forward pack 1215 00:58:00,627 --> 00:58:04,507 Speaker 16: and Tubo Bay was outstanding, as was Simon Parker. I thought, 1216 00:58:05,187 --> 00:58:07,947 Speaker 16: I do probably see them moving Jordan to the wing. 1217 00:58:08,507 --> 00:58:12,747 Speaker 16: Just the options we have there, whether or not Rico 1218 00:58:12,827 --> 00:58:14,787 Speaker 16: gets another goal on the wing or Caleb Clark may 1219 00:58:14,867 --> 00:58:18,027 Speaker 16: well come in give him how he plays this weekend, 1220 00:58:18,107 --> 00:58:22,307 Speaker 16: I thought, you know, that's always another option there, But 1221 00:58:22,467 --> 00:58:26,067 Speaker 16: I do expect them to sort of a roll out 1222 00:58:26,107 --> 00:58:28,867 Speaker 16: a similar team and ask those guys to go again. 1223 00:58:28,907 --> 00:58:32,147 Speaker 16: Because that balance in the four pack was outstanding, and 1224 00:58:32,227 --> 00:58:34,427 Speaker 16: I know you've talked about Scotti, Barrett, but I thought 1225 00:58:34,507 --> 00:58:38,667 Speaker 16: Tupo v was just outstanding again last night and really 1226 00:58:38,787 --> 00:58:41,747 Speaker 16: just stepped it up and wasn't intimidated at all by 1227 00:58:41,827 --> 00:58:42,307 Speaker 16: the occasion. 1228 00:58:42,507 --> 00:58:45,827 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's become quite a player, hasn't eat two? Poor 1229 00:58:45,907 --> 00:58:47,707 Speaker 2: v All right, George, hay mate, if you're in an 1230 00:58:47,707 --> 00:58:51,507 Speaker 2: around that shared twenty two next week, if you need directions, 1231 00:58:51,587 --> 00:58:53,107 Speaker 2: just get in touch, mate, and I'll guide you in 1232 00:58:54,027 --> 00:58:55,907 Speaker 2: a very familiar with twenty two. 1233 00:58:56,107 --> 00:58:59,227 Speaker 16: Finey, don't you worry. So I may may well be 1234 00:58:59,307 --> 00:59:01,187 Speaker 16: seeing you down there. It should be in a great game, 1235 00:59:01,267 --> 00:59:04,627 Speaker 16: freedom cup on the line, so plenty to play for again, good. 1236 00:59:04,507 --> 00:59:07,107 Speaker 2: Man, George. I always love chatting, mate. Thanks vehicle to 1237 00:59:07,227 --> 00:59:09,987 Speaker 2: Paul Vai. What a presence, says Nick. I haven't seen 1238 00:59:10,067 --> 00:59:12,987 Speaker 2: that since Jerome Kinnor. The guy's a physical beast. Loves 1239 00:59:13,027 --> 00:59:16,067 Speaker 2: getting stuck into the Niggli rucks. How many turnovers did 1240 00:59:16,107 --> 00:59:18,387 Speaker 2: he have last night? How good bang on? 1241 00:59:18,507 --> 00:59:18,667 Speaker 5: Nick? 1242 00:59:18,787 --> 00:59:21,387 Speaker 2: And there was another text here from JERRR Jason. I 1243 00:59:21,507 --> 00:59:24,587 Speaker 2: loved the ecstasy on Tupaul Vai's face every time he 1244 00:59:24,667 --> 00:59:27,907 Speaker 2: got one over the opposition. He was loving it, by 1245 00:59:27,907 --> 00:59:30,307 Speaker 2: the way. I could never see the English or Australians 1246 00:59:30,347 --> 00:59:32,667 Speaker 2: making a presentation to an All Black on reaching one 1247 00:59:32,747 --> 00:59:33,307 Speaker 2: hundred tests. 1248 00:59:33,387 --> 00:59:33,547 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1249 00:59:33,867 --> 00:59:38,267 Speaker 2: Look, I think there's great respect for Artie Savia right 1250 00:59:38,307 --> 00:59:40,827 Speaker 2: around the rugby world, but particularly in South Africa. He 1251 00:59:40,907 --> 00:59:46,467 Speaker 2: and Sea Calisi are very very close and clearly hold 1252 00:59:46,507 --> 00:59:49,067 Speaker 2: each other in huge regard, and I think that permeates 1253 00:59:49,467 --> 00:59:52,267 Speaker 2: across the respect of rugby teams, even though they're not well. 1254 00:59:52,427 --> 00:59:54,467 Speaker 2: Artie's not captain of the All Black Sea wasn't captain 1255 00:59:54,507 --> 00:59:57,347 Speaker 2: last night, but I think there is a genuinely held 1256 00:59:57,467 --> 01:00:01,427 Speaker 2: respect across the two sets of players. And I believe too. 1257 01:00:01,467 --> 01:00:03,827 Speaker 2: And we've just talked about this across the two sets 1258 01:00:03,827 --> 01:00:09,507 Speaker 2: of fans. You know, there was Look, I wasn't everywhere 1259 01:00:09,587 --> 01:00:12,107 Speaker 2: last night, but there was. I didn't see a single 1260 01:00:12,187 --> 01:00:15,427 Speaker 2: bit of Agro, a single but there was a lot 1261 01:00:15,467 --> 01:00:17,867 Speaker 2: of friendly banter. When we were at the Kingslander yesterday 1262 01:00:17,907 --> 01:00:20,787 Speaker 2: there were All Blacks fans mixing and mingling with South 1263 01:00:20,827 --> 01:00:24,907 Speaker 2: African fans getting photos. It was it was just great. 1264 01:00:25,067 --> 01:00:29,147 Speaker 2: And so this rivalry is is so fierce on the field, 1265 01:00:29,827 --> 01:00:33,627 Speaker 2: but it is it's a connector of players and fans 1266 01:00:33,787 --> 01:00:36,667 Speaker 2: from both countries, and yeah, I just think that's brilliant 1267 01:00:37,067 --> 01:00:38,547 Speaker 2: one twenty six Goda Chris. 1268 01:00:39,587 --> 01:00:43,347 Speaker 15: Yeah, mate, you brought up a really good point. First, 1269 01:00:43,427 --> 01:00:46,267 Speaker 15: I wanted to say I really enjoyed the show leading 1270 01:00:46,347 --> 01:00:48,347 Speaker 15: up to the game that you put on when you 1271 01:00:48,507 --> 01:00:52,587 Speaker 15: talk to Bobby Skinstead and Joel Strensky. It gave in 1272 01:00:52,827 --> 01:00:56,987 Speaker 15: various other Shawn Firzspatrick, it gave us a little bit 1273 01:00:56,987 --> 01:00:59,787 Speaker 15: of inspite to how they're thinking and then you know 1274 01:01:00,147 --> 01:01:02,627 Speaker 15: how we want to go, and that built into the 1275 01:01:02,667 --> 01:01:07,027 Speaker 15: game beautifully. What I liked about the ten matches they 1276 01:01:07,147 --> 01:01:11,947 Speaker 15: played it so fierce both teams, but that niggle if 1277 01:01:11,947 --> 01:01:14,147 Speaker 15: you watch the Wallabies play against South Africa or US 1278 01:01:14,187 --> 01:01:17,307 Speaker 15: played against Argentina, there's always a push around, but it's 1279 01:01:17,347 --> 01:01:21,027 Speaker 15: almost as the two teams don't want to fight each 1280 01:01:21,067 --> 01:01:24,587 Speaker 15: other because we know we're too strong against each other. 1281 01:01:24,707 --> 01:01:26,907 Speaker 15: You don't want to be the one that makes the 1282 01:01:27,867 --> 01:01:33,587 Speaker 15: good relationship of your play the game fear. I enjoyed that. 1283 01:01:34,027 --> 01:01:35,707 Speaker 15: That was the best test I've seen them two three 1284 01:01:35,787 --> 01:01:37,947 Speaker 15: years from the All Blacks extensively. 1285 01:01:38,627 --> 01:01:39,707 Speaker 13: Oh my god, I had. 1286 01:01:39,667 --> 01:01:44,347 Speaker 15: Doubts after watching US play against Argentina and all of 1287 01:01:44,427 --> 01:01:47,867 Speaker 15: our guys don't their jersey to keep their jersey there's 1288 01:01:47,947 --> 01:01:51,427 Speaker 15: not one player I'd say, not swap him out. Everybody 1289 01:01:51,587 --> 01:01:55,827 Speaker 15: played well, so I was proud of the whole team 1290 01:01:55,987 --> 01:01:59,907 Speaker 15: and what they did yesterday that was a monster effort. 1291 01:02:01,267 --> 01:02:03,907 Speaker 2: Love it, Chris, great summary, mate, and yeah, I think 1292 01:02:03,947 --> 01:02:07,747 Speaker 2: you're right they No one wants to to bring this 1293 01:02:08,627 --> 01:02:12,467 Speaker 2: the storied history down. Really interesting comic yesterday. It seems 1294 01:02:12,467 --> 01:02:14,627 Speaker 2: so obvious, but a couple of the South African fans 1295 01:02:14,627 --> 01:02:17,227 Speaker 2: who stopped by yesterday at Kingslander. One of them said, look, 1296 01:02:17,267 --> 01:02:20,707 Speaker 2: we can play our best game and still lose to 1297 01:02:20,707 --> 01:02:24,267 Speaker 2: the All Blacks. That is how good the All Blacks are. 1298 01:02:24,387 --> 01:02:27,427 Speaker 2: And I think that the reversals is also true. The 1299 01:02:27,507 --> 01:02:29,907 Speaker 2: All Blacks could play their best game and still lose 1300 01:02:29,947 --> 01:02:32,987 Speaker 2: to South Africa. They are without a doubt. I know 1301 01:02:33,067 --> 01:02:36,587 Speaker 2: there'll be Irish fans and French fans and maybe the 1302 01:02:36,627 --> 01:02:40,827 Speaker 2: old Australian fan who have designs on the top of 1303 01:02:40,827 --> 01:02:43,747 Speaker 2: the rugby tree. But at the top of the rugby 1304 01:02:43,787 --> 01:02:46,867 Speaker 2: tree there are two teams and they were there at 1305 01:02:46,947 --> 01:02:49,667 Speaker 2: Eden Park last night one twenty eight.

I would never cast dispersions on on 1321 01:03:40,347 --> 01:03:44,907 Speaker 2: those fine establishments or the concept of doing a radio 1322 01:03:44,947 --> 01:03:45,507 Speaker 2: show from there. 1323 01:03:45,707 --> 01:03:49,667 Speaker 11: Mark, I mate, Hey, Piney, I get the feeling you're 1324 01:03:49,707 --> 01:03:51,987 Speaker 11: trying to do. We're broadcasting from tubs now, by the 1325 01:03:52,027 --> 01:03:52,787 Speaker 11: way you're pushing that. 1326 01:03:53,227 --> 01:03:55,147 Speaker 2: I think, even if there's not an all blacks test, 1327 01:03:55,227 --> 01:03:57,827 Speaker 2: maybe I just can't go and pack up somewhere. 1328 01:03:58,387 --> 01:04:01,347 Speaker 11: Every every weeknight on on the on ther show there 1329 01:04:01,387 --> 01:04:04,587 Speaker 11: in seven. Oh, where's Piney. I'll be at the pub. 1330 01:04:04,867 --> 01:04:06,347 Speaker 11: He'll be broadcasting from the park. 1331 01:04:06,427 --> 01:04:08,227 Speaker 5: U why not. 1332 01:04:10,627 --> 01:04:13,587 Speaker 11: Yesterday? I think for Razor you could see on his 1333 01:04:13,747 --> 01:04:16,427 Speaker 11: face that it was probably his most important win and 1334 01:04:16,467 --> 01:04:18,747 Speaker 11: it meant a lot to him. And it was really 1335 01:04:18,867 --> 01:04:23,627 Speaker 11: nice to see Russi when they got that late penalty 1336 01:04:23,707 --> 01:04:25,987 Speaker 11: and he just absolutely lost it because he knew that 1337 01:04:26,187 --> 01:04:28,307 Speaker 11: was I think that was pretty much their last chance. 1338 01:04:28,947 --> 01:04:29,827 Speaker 9: That was quite place. 1339 01:04:29,987 --> 01:04:33,747 Speaker 11: That was quite a priceless bit of year watching there. 1340 01:04:35,387 --> 01:04:38,307 Speaker 11: I thought d Mack at fullback was was actually really 1341 01:04:38,347 --> 01:04:40,707 Speaker 11: good for most of you know, for the whole game. 1342 01:04:40,787 --> 01:04:43,827 Speaker 11: I thought, I think maybe going forward that that maybe 1343 01:04:44,027 --> 01:04:48,267 Speaker 11: to be an option. I thought Finlay Christie was absolutely 1344 01:04:48,347 --> 01:04:51,147 Speaker 11: awesome to me, you know, it must have been hard 1345 01:04:51,187 --> 01:04:53,147 Speaker 11: for him being the fourth cab off the rank and 1346 01:04:53,347 --> 01:04:55,907 Speaker 11: the way he performed, you know, under that extreme pressure. 1347 01:04:56,467 --> 01:04:59,827 Speaker 11: To me, i'd have him as my second behind came Roy. 1348 01:04:59,907 --> 01:05:02,547 Speaker 11: God on, heaven's my second half back to be honest, 1349 01:05:02,587 --> 01:05:03,827 Speaker 11: I'm last night's performance. 1350 01:05:05,787 --> 01:05:09,027 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a very interesting point mark because I think 1351 01:05:09,147 --> 01:05:11,347 Speaker 2: most people right at the start of the year, when 1352 01:05:11,507 --> 01:05:13,507 Speaker 2: when the three half backs were named as Roy, Guard 1353 01:05:14,507 --> 01:05:17,427 Speaker 2: MT and Hotham, everybody nodded their head. And I think 1354 01:05:17,467 --> 01:05:20,507 Speaker 2: if Christy had been in those three then people would 1355 01:05:20,507 --> 01:05:22,387 Speaker 2: have would have been ringing this radio show and saying, 1356 01:05:22,387 --> 01:05:24,467 Speaker 2: what's he doing there? But I think he you know, 1357 01:05:24,707 --> 01:05:27,907 Speaker 2: and he's a very unashuman guy, and maybe that's part 1358 01:05:27,947 --> 01:05:30,507 Speaker 2: of the secret. Last night, I thought, like you, I 1359 01:05:30,587 --> 01:05:32,147 Speaker 2: thought he was excellent, really good. 1360 01:05:33,147 --> 01:05:35,347 Speaker 11: It's a bit like Beaver, wasn't it getting getting the 1361 01:05:35,467 --> 01:05:37,907 Speaker 11: call up the Old Cup when he was off white mating, 1362 01:05:38,347 --> 01:05:40,547 Speaker 11: But I mean, yeah, no, I just thought he was terrific. 1363 01:05:40,627 --> 01:05:42,507 Speaker 11: And I mean every game he's played for All Black. 1364 01:05:42,547 --> 01:05:45,547 Speaker 11: So I think Christy he's really he's not he's not 1365 01:05:45,747 --> 01:05:47,867 Speaker 11: phased by and he just he seems to be able 1366 01:05:47,867 --> 01:05:50,667 Speaker 11: to perform under that pressure. And I think he outperformed 1367 01:05:50,707 --> 01:05:54,307 Speaker 11: as as opposite. No, I don't think Pollard. You know, 1368 01:05:54,347 --> 01:05:56,627 Speaker 11: there's a few players in the in the African team 1369 01:05:56,667 --> 01:05:58,787 Speaker 11: now who are going to be a little bit too 1370 01:05:58,827 --> 01:06:00,787 Speaker 11: old to me to get to the next World Cup, 1371 01:06:00,867 --> 01:06:03,187 Speaker 11: you know, and I think Pollard might not be the 1372 01:06:03,307 --> 01:06:06,467 Speaker 11: answer going forward to the next one. I thought he 1373 01:06:06,627 --> 01:06:08,827 Speaker 11: was like a little bit, yeah, he looked a bit 1374 01:06:08,947 --> 01:06:11,307 Speaker 11: tired here. I mean, he's a great kicker. He's probably 1375 01:06:11,347 --> 01:06:14,027 Speaker 11: still the best kicker in world rugby, but years a 1376 01:06:14,147 --> 01:06:15,907 Speaker 11: number ten. I don't know whether he's going to offer 1377 01:06:16,027 --> 01:06:16,787 Speaker 11: enough going forward. 1378 01:06:16,987 --> 01:06:19,187 Speaker 2: Yeah, they'll they'll have a decision to make or Rassie 1379 01:06:19,227 --> 01:06:22,427 Speaker 2: arrestmus Will and the others. Yeah, got on your mark. 1380 01:06:22,467 --> 01:06:24,707 Speaker 2: Thanks mate, thanks for calling. And I've left out the 1381 01:06:24,827 --> 01:06:28,707 Speaker 2: rock Pole.

But I'm not convinced 1423 01:08:39,627 --> 01:08:40,427 Speaker 24: on that, Bully Proctor. 1424 01:08:41,307 --> 01:08:44,467 Speaker 19: I'm not convinced. I haven't been watching the Obrex for 1425 01:08:44,547 --> 01:08:46,987 Speaker 19: some time, but I just feel like we're missing a 1426 01:08:47,547 --> 01:08:52,427 Speaker 19: robust thirteen. Uh yeah, just to straighten up their back line. 1427 01:08:52,627 --> 01:08:54,547 Speaker 19: I was watching him. I haven't been watching for some 1428 01:08:54,747 --> 01:08:57,747 Speaker 19: time the All Blacks, but just watching him, he seems 1429 01:08:57,787 --> 01:08:59,507 Speaker 19: to sort of go missing and defense when it gets 1430 01:08:59,507 --> 01:09:01,587 Speaker 19: a bit physical. I think I think it's a bit 1431 01:09:01,667 --> 01:09:04,387 Speaker 19: lightweight that that recasement that came on. If you looked 1432 01:09:04,387 --> 01:09:06,027 Speaker 19: at us, try did you see how he straightened up 1433 01:09:06,027 --> 01:09:08,507 Speaker 19: their backing. He went straight through the middle when under 1434 01:09:08,507 --> 01:09:10,867 Speaker 19: the post. That's what we needed. We I don't know, 1435 01:09:11,067 --> 01:09:12,867 Speaker 19: it just hasn't been the same since they sort of 1436 01:09:13,267 --> 01:09:17,027 Speaker 19: a one who sort of Conrad Smith's sort of combination there. Yeah, 1437 01:09:17,107 --> 01:09:21,627 Speaker 19: and are missing missing their center, that twelve thirteen sort 1438 01:09:21,627 --> 01:09:24,747 Speaker 19: of robust sort of you know that that that that 1439 01:09:24,987 --> 01:09:28,547 Speaker 19: that center partnership they can just penetrate anytime they play 1440 01:09:28,627 --> 01:09:29,267 Speaker 19: any opposition. 1441 01:09:29,547 --> 01:09:31,987 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's funny you mentioned Conrad Smith because he wasn't 1442 01:09:31,987 --> 01:09:33,787 Speaker 2: the biggest guy either, was he Riccardo? You know, the 1443 01:09:34,187 --> 01:09:37,107 Speaker 2: the bulk in that partnership was Martin Onu At twelve 1444 01:09:37,787 --> 01:09:39,667 Speaker 2: you go back to Walter Lull and Frank Bunce as well, 1445 01:09:39,667 --> 01:09:41,507 Speaker 2: and Duncey was. I mean, he's a gee, what a 1446 01:09:41,587 --> 01:09:44,747 Speaker 2: champion of a player he was. I like Billy Proctor, 1447 01:09:44,827 --> 01:09:46,867 Speaker 2: and I'm glad that they've given him a run of tests. 1448 01:09:47,147 --> 01:09:49,867 Speaker 2: But you're right, I don't think he's quite made the 1449 01:09:49,907 --> 01:09:52,907 Speaker 2: step from his excellent super rugby form yet into the 1450 01:09:52,987 --> 01:09:56,187 Speaker 2: All Blacks. I get the feeling they'll continue to give 1451 01:09:56,267 --> 01:10:00,027 Speaker 2: him opportunities. But yeah, look at you. It doesn't make you, 1452 01:10:00,267 --> 01:10:04,667 Speaker 2: It doesn't make you hated or even disliked. It's an 1453 01:10:04,707 --> 01:10:06,307 Speaker 2: opinion made and it's a valid one. 1454 01:10:07,987 --> 01:10:09,227 Speaker 18: Yeah, exactly, exactly that. 1455 01:10:09,347 --> 01:10:11,267 Speaker 19: I appreciate that, poney.

They're just passionate 1482 01:11:25,267 --> 01:11:28,627 Speaker 2: about their team, gracious in defeat and in victory role 1483 01:11:28,787 --> 01:11:33,107 Speaker 2: on Wellington. Thanks Ian. Yeah, at the risk of repeating 1484 01:11:33,787 --> 01:11:39,067 Speaker 2: the same thought, they love their team as much as 1485 01:11:39,107 --> 01:11:41,907 Speaker 2: we love ours, but they love playing against the All 1486 01:11:41,947 --> 01:11:44,427 Speaker 2: Blacks just as we love playing against the SPRINGBOKX. The 1487 01:11:44,507 --> 01:11:47,987 Speaker 2: atmosphere before, during, and I'm sure after the game was 1488 01:11:48,267 --> 01:11:51,267 Speaker 2: terrific between the two sets of fans. Big part of 1489 01:11:51,307 --> 01:11:53,867 Speaker 2: our Sundays is a chance sketch up with James mcconey, 1490 01:11:54,387 --> 01:11:58,947 Speaker 2: who was involved in the alternative commentary collective commentary of 1491 01:11:59,027 --> 01:12:01,547 Speaker 2: the game last night. I saw you up there, James, 1492 01:12:01,587 --> 01:12:04,027 Speaker 2: getting ready for the game. Were there any moments during 1493 01:12:04,107 --> 01:12:06,147 Speaker 2: the match when you got a bit nervous? 1494 01:12:07,147 --> 01:12:10,787 Speaker 13: I was packing myself throughout actually piney and the thing 1495 01:12:10,987 --> 01:12:14,107 Speaker 13: is what an atmosphere though. Credit to the South Africans 1496 01:12:14,187 --> 01:12:17,387 Speaker 13: of the North Shore for crossing the bridge and creating 1497 01:12:17,507 --> 01:12:20,907 Speaker 13: something special at Eden Park because it was awesome and 1498 01:12:21,027 --> 01:12:23,867 Speaker 13: even Malcolm Marx couldn't hear himself. You could tell he 1499 01:12:24,227 --> 01:12:27,107 Speaker 13: got a line out throw you borked, didn't he Yes, 1500 01:12:27,227 --> 01:12:27,987 Speaker 13: thanks to the crowd. 1501 01:12:28,227 --> 01:12:30,147 Speaker 2: They played their part, they did, and that you're right, 1502 01:12:30,227 --> 01:12:33,147 Speaker 2: there were so many of them, so many South African 1503 01:12:33,227 --> 01:12:35,827 Speaker 2: rugby jerseys in and around Eden Park before the game 1504 01:12:36,147 --> 01:12:39,347 Speaker 2: and obviously during the game as well, they weren't able 1505 01:12:39,387 --> 01:12:42,427 Speaker 2: to witness a victory. They did, though, watch the latest 1506 01:12:42,467 --> 01:12:45,947 Speaker 2: All Black centurion bring up his hundred, Artie Savian. It's 1507 01:12:46,027 --> 01:12:48,547 Speaker 2: kind of hard to find new words for Artie, isn't it. 1508 01:12:49,307 --> 01:12:52,467 Speaker 13: Honestly, when he came in to play first play for 1509 01:12:52,507 --> 01:12:55,387 Speaker 13: the All Blacks in twenty sixteen, I actually felt sorry 1510 01:12:55,427 --> 01:12:58,467 Speaker 13: for him because his brother was so good and you know, 1511 01:12:58,667 --> 01:13:00,987 Speaker 13: already a greater at the game that I thought, oh wow, 1512 01:13:01,067 --> 01:13:03,467 Speaker 13: what a tough fact to follow. Must be hard being 1513 01:13:03,547 --> 01:13:06,547 Speaker 13: the little Savier brother. And look at him now, our 1514 01:13:06,867 --> 01:13:10,587 Speaker 13: World Rugby player of the year, one hundred tests definitely 1515 01:13:10,707 --> 01:13:15,307 Speaker 13: Hall of Fame material in anyone's eyes. And the standards 1516 01:13:15,507 --> 01:13:19,627 Speaker 13: just so high and clutch with that turnover, yeah, just 1517 01:13:19,787 --> 01:13:22,707 Speaker 13: nothing but round to the cause for Artie. And wasn't 1518 01:13:22,707 --> 01:13:26,587 Speaker 13: it lovely seeing seea Calisi go over and give him 1519 01:13:26,587 --> 01:13:29,827 Speaker 13: a presentation and Hardie's daughter jump up in to see 1520 01:13:29,867 --> 01:13:33,427 Speaker 13: his arms. Uncle, seea that's so close. 1521 01:13:33,507 --> 01:13:36,907 Speaker 2: Yeah amazing. I thought that was really heartwarming moment as well. 1522 01:13:37,427 --> 01:13:40,307 Speaker 2: Three All Blacks tries last night all pretty good. Tries 1523 01:13:40,387 --> 01:13:40,987 Speaker 2: in their own way. 1524 01:13:41,867 --> 01:13:43,787 Speaker 13: That's exactly what I was wanting to talk about. It 1525 01:13:43,867 --> 01:13:47,427 Speaker 13: was just a money Nadawa. He's an assassin. You give 1526 01:13:47,507 --> 01:13:50,427 Speaker 13: him a stiff and he'll score. So it's sad that 1527 01:13:50,507 --> 01:13:52,467 Speaker 13: he got taken off, but wide a way to take 1528 01:13:52,507 --> 01:13:55,187 Speaker 13: that chance because it wasn't the perfect cross kick, but 1529 01:13:55,267 --> 01:13:57,947 Speaker 13: he turned it into that by taking it, and then 1530 01:13:58,307 --> 01:14:00,667 Speaker 13: as a dive it was a specky and then selling 1531 01:14:00,747 --> 01:14:04,067 Speaker 13: the dummy was the Titi the hands the inside ball 1532 01:14:04,507 --> 01:14:06,787 Speaker 13: to Will Jordan, a simple move off the line out 1533 01:14:06,827 --> 01:14:09,987 Speaker 13: perfectly executed. Everyone who plays rugby should have a similar 1534 01:14:10,067 --> 01:14:12,067 Speaker 13: move to that, and I'm sure people out there are 1535 01:14:12,107 --> 01:14:14,427 Speaker 13: going we do have a move like that. Well, that's 1536 01:14:14,507 --> 01:14:17,827 Speaker 13: exactly how you do it. And then Quintupaia his timing 1537 01:14:17,867 --> 01:14:22,467 Speaker 13: off Boaden Barrett was beautiful. Nice ball from body positioned 1538 01:14:22,507 --> 01:14:25,947 Speaker 13: them well, but to Pied just straightened so well that 1539 01:14:26,107 --> 01:14:28,987 Speaker 13: he broke about three or four tackles on the way 1540 01:14:29,027 --> 01:14:31,307 Speaker 13: to the line. And that's a clutch moment from a 1541 01:14:31,347 --> 01:14:32,907 Speaker 13: guy who's been through a lot of you know, he's 1542 01:14:32,907 --> 01:14:34,547 Speaker 13: been to helen back really with injuries. 1543 01:14:34,947 --> 01:14:39,747 Speaker 2: Yeah, now, just three terrific tries and you've named a 1544 01:14:39,827 --> 01:14:42,947 Speaker 2: number of players there, but who else saw who did 1545 01:14:43,067 --> 01:14:44,587 Speaker 2: really stand out for you last night? 1546 01:14:45,707 --> 01:14:49,467 Speaker 13: Well, I'd like to sing about numbers of five, six, seven, eight. 1547 01:14:51,627 --> 01:14:53,827 Speaker 2: I'm an a musical and to look it for that 1548 01:14:53,987 --> 01:14:55,747 Speaker 2: as well. Yeah, they were all good, weren't they the 1549 01:14:56,067 --> 01:14:57,827 Speaker 2: smaller That was a couple of chiefs in there as well. 1550 01:14:58,587 --> 01:15:00,427 Speaker 13: Yeah that's a song by steps of course. What a 1551 01:15:00,787 --> 01:15:03,667 Speaker 13: banger it is, Yeah, I mean twoo by going back 1552 01:15:03,707 --> 01:15:07,947 Speaker 13: to Lock, he's undersize, right, he was up against two monsters. 1553 01:15:08,507 --> 01:15:12,187 Speaker 13: He was exceptional in the line outs, quite nice and 1554 01:15:12,307 --> 01:15:14,347 Speaker 13: light to lift as well to Bo but I'll tell 1555 01:15:14,387 --> 01:15:17,267 Speaker 13: you what he gets around, does the work. Simon Parker 1556 01:15:17,707 --> 01:15:21,547 Speaker 13: he had the toughest assignment to start his first test 1557 01:15:21,667 --> 01:15:25,707 Speaker 13: last week at eight and then and then was marking 1558 01:15:25,747 --> 01:15:28,307 Speaker 13: Peter Steph de Toy. I thought he was really great. 1559 01:15:28,347 --> 01:15:31,907 Speaker 13: But Artie and Wallace a tt just you know, just 1560 01:15:32,107 --> 01:15:35,987 Speaker 13: studying see that combination shine through because they haven't played 1561 01:15:36,227 --> 01:15:38,507 Speaker 13: a whole of the tests together due to a few 1562 01:15:38,587 --> 01:15:43,427 Speaker 13: things last year. But in those positions, in the seven 1563 01:15:43,467 --> 01:15:47,387 Speaker 13: and eight, but there's there's something exceptional there. But let's 1564 01:15:47,427 --> 01:15:51,427 Speaker 13: carry on the nine and le Christie, who was fantastic 1565 01:15:51,507 --> 01:15:54,467 Speaker 13: given that he's really just been called in and Cole Preston, 1566 01:15:54,627 --> 01:15:59,347 Speaker 13: you talk about tough half debuts, you almost have to 1567 01:15:59,427 --> 01:16:02,627 Speaker 13: go back to Gary Wetton and Steve Porketty making their 1568 01:16:02,707 --> 01:16:05,827 Speaker 13: debut in the flower Bomb Test in nineteen eighty one 1569 01:16:06,427 --> 01:16:09,227 Speaker 13: to say that Cayle Preston coming on and that pressure 1570 01:16:09,227 --> 01:16:10,547 Speaker 13: cooker of fantastic. 1571 01:16:10,627 --> 01:16:13,467 Speaker 2: Yeah, I thore he acquitted himself very very well. Indeed, 1572 01:16:13,547 --> 01:16:14,867 Speaker 2: a couple of other matters I want to get your 1573 01:16:14,947 --> 01:16:16,907 Speaker 2: views on. Are the Warriors. We know they're facing the 1574 01:16:16,987 --> 01:16:19,667 Speaker 2: Panthers in a knockout game next weekend. We don't know 1575 01:16:20,027 --> 01:16:21,907 Speaker 2: which day or what time yet, but we know we're 1576 01:16:21,947 --> 01:16:23,907 Speaker 2: facing the Panthers. Can we win this game? 1577 01:16:24,947 --> 01:16:25,987 Speaker 5: Yeah? I think we can. 1578 01:16:27,387 --> 01:16:30,347 Speaker 13: I severely doubt we will. But there's there's something that's 1579 01:16:30,627 --> 01:16:33,267 Speaker 13: really kind of daring about the Warriors, and that is 1580 01:16:33,467 --> 01:16:35,907 Speaker 13: what we saw in the Manley game. Is they don't 1581 01:16:35,907 --> 01:16:38,907 Speaker 13: allow teams to get away on them anymore. And the 1582 01:16:39,027 --> 01:16:42,227 Speaker 13: old Warriors would have let in forty points, you know, 1583 01:16:42,427 --> 01:16:46,787 Speaker 13: but this is a steely team, really organized, you know. 1584 01:16:47,427 --> 01:16:49,307 Speaker 13: Dare I say that they stick to their processes, but 1585 01:16:49,467 --> 01:16:53,467 Speaker 13: there is the expected there and I think, you know, Leka, 1586 01:16:54,187 --> 01:16:58,787 Speaker 13: he'll be fired up. There'll be even Valmona, who's pretty 1587 01:16:58,867 --> 01:17:02,867 Speaker 13: much coming as a youngster to shore up that pack. 1588 01:17:03,907 --> 01:17:06,467 Speaker 13: We'll get Jackson Ford back, I think from suspense and 1589 01:17:06,867 --> 01:17:08,907 Speaker 13: look at all is not lost. I just do worry 1590 01:17:08,987 --> 01:17:11,707 Speaker 13: that the Penerith Panther's you know, they're going to be 1591 01:17:11,747 --> 01:17:15,147 Speaker 13: at full strength and firing. That's the only issue. 1592 01:17:14,907 --> 01:17:16,787 Speaker 2: For you, Piney, Yes, same, I mean they are a 1593 01:17:16,827 --> 01:17:19,147 Speaker 2: good team. They are a good team. But as I've 1594 01:17:19,187 --> 01:17:21,867 Speaker 2: heard many people say on many occasions across the season, 1595 01:17:22,227 --> 01:17:25,107 Speaker 2: on their night, the Warriors can beat anybody. So I 1596 01:17:25,227 --> 01:17:28,107 Speaker 2: hope that night or day, whichever day or night it is, 1597 01:17:28,547 --> 01:17:30,987 Speaker 2: comes this weekend and then there's there's more to come 1598 01:17:31,027 --> 01:17:33,067 Speaker 2: obvious o after that. But I don't think we're favorite, 1599 01:17:33,107 --> 01:17:36,547 Speaker 2: absolutely not favorite. But funny things happen in knockout games, 1600 01:17:36,587 --> 01:17:39,347 Speaker 2: so let's let's see how it plays out. Hey, just 1601 01:17:39,387 --> 01:17:42,307 Speaker 2: to finish NFL seasons underway, high excitement in my house. 1602 01:17:42,387 --> 01:17:43,987 Speaker 2: My son absolutely loves the NFL. 1603 01:17:44,707 --> 01:17:47,107 Speaker 13: You're a big fan, I am, well, who did your 1604 01:17:47,147 --> 01:17:47,747 Speaker 13: son support? 1605 01:17:47,867 --> 01:17:50,187 Speaker 2: He supports the Minnesota Vikings. 1606 01:17:51,187 --> 01:17:56,547 Speaker 13: Nice, Yes, David Dixon Porci's finalists. We've got his DNAV. 1607 01:17:56,787 --> 01:17:59,747 Speaker 13: I think Read Ellison played there as well another Kiwi, 1608 01:18:00,547 --> 01:18:03,707 Speaker 13: So that's that's very cool. I'm a Detroit Lions fan, 1609 01:18:03,827 --> 01:18:07,987 Speaker 13: long suffering Detroit Lions fan, and and even though we've 1610 01:18:07,987 --> 01:18:11,587 Speaker 13: gone quite well with our big rooted up coach, it 1611 01:18:11,747 --> 01:18:14,787 Speaker 13: does seem a little bit thought. But I did notice 1612 01:18:14,787 --> 01:18:17,747 Speaker 13: the other day just seeing Justin Herbert and the and 1613 01:18:17,827 --> 01:18:22,067 Speaker 13: the LA Chargers beat the Kansas City chief Sir Patrick 1614 01:18:22,147 --> 01:18:25,067 Speaker 13: Mahomes and Travis Galcy just shows that, you know, teams, 1615 01:18:25,107 --> 01:18:26,587 Speaker 13: if you can get it right on the day, you 1616 01:18:26,627 --> 01:18:29,027 Speaker 13: can beat the big names. Although I feel like the 1617 01:18:29,107 --> 01:18:32,107 Speaker 13: storyline with Travis getting engaged may have been, you know, 1618 01:18:32,227 --> 01:18:34,867 Speaker 13: to Taylor Swift that that is obviously one of the 1619 01:18:34,907 --> 01:18:38,827 Speaker 13: big focuses, but pretty much just copying what Peter Alertini 1620 01:18:38,907 --> 01:18:41,827 Speaker 13: did with Megan Cassy from True Bliss. But hey, you know, 1621 01:18:42,347 --> 01:18:46,147 Speaker 13: all power to them. But yeah, I think NFL is 1622 01:18:46,227 --> 01:18:48,387 Speaker 13: just a great way if you can, if you can 1623 01:18:48,507 --> 01:18:51,107 Speaker 13: rig it on you with your work on a Monday morning, 1624 01:18:52,027 --> 01:18:54,707 Speaker 13: watching Red Zone is probably one of the best ways 1625 01:18:54,787 --> 01:18:56,587 Speaker 13: to take. 1626 01:18:56,427 --> 01:18:57,107 Speaker 5: In the UFL. 1627 01:18:57,587 --> 01:18:59,827 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know my son will be finding a reason 1628 01:18:59,907 --> 01:19:03,147 Speaker 2: to ditch school on Monday morning for Red Zone. He's 1629 01:19:03,467 --> 01:19:06,627 Speaker 2: he's highly excited about it all James Away. It's good 1630 01:19:06,627 --> 01:19:08,307 Speaker 2: to chat.

Quite how often and how strictly the 1812 01:30:04,507 --> 01:30:07,347 Speaker 2: NRL look at these sorts of things, I guesses entirely 1813 01:30:07,467 --> 01:30:08,787 Speaker 2: over to them, but it'd be nice to think that 1814 01:30:08,867 --> 01:30:11,827 Speaker 2: they could get a game on the Sunday afternoon perhaps 1815 01:30:12,187 --> 01:30:16,027 Speaker 2: which has been reported in a couple of outlets online, 1816 01:30:16,587 --> 01:30:18,947 Speaker 2: and avoid the All Blacks on a Saturday night. Regardless, 1817 01:30:18,947 --> 01:30:20,987 Speaker 2: there's going to be a big, big test for the 1818 01:30:21,067 --> 01:30:24,907 Speaker 2: Warriors as the four time defending champion Penrith Panthers come 1819 01:30:24,947 --> 01:30:28,107 Speaker 2: to town. Former Warrior our Skysport Rugby League analyst Willy 1820 01:30:28,147 --> 01:30:31,427 Speaker 2: Poaching is with us. Willy this is a tough draw 1821 01:30:31,507 --> 01:30:33,347 Speaker 2: for the Warriors, there's no getting away from it. But 1822 01:30:33,547 --> 01:30:34,987 Speaker 2: at the stage of the season, I guess there are 1823 01:30:35,027 --> 01:30:38,187 Speaker 2: no easy games as we go into the top eight. 1824 01:30:38,507 --> 01:30:42,147 Speaker 2: In general terms, how do you evaluate the Warriors' ability 1825 01:30:42,707 --> 01:30:44,587 Speaker 2: to beat the Panthers next weekend? 1826 01:30:46,027 --> 01:30:48,947 Speaker 5: Well, they have an ability and that's the thing to 1827 01:30:49,027 --> 01:30:51,987 Speaker 5: start with. They have a chance to beat them. And yeah, 1828 01:30:51,987 --> 01:30:55,667 Speaker 5: it's a tough proposition to go against the reigning champions 1829 01:30:55,787 --> 01:30:58,987 Speaker 5: or chasing five titles in a row, but it's an 1830 01:30:59,027 --> 01:31:02,827 Speaker 5: exciting challenge at the same time. And by the same time, 1831 01:31:02,987 --> 01:31:04,987 Speaker 5: it's a tough challenge for the Panthers to come over 1832 01:31:05,067 --> 01:31:08,707 Speaker 5: here to or to take on the Warriors in their background, 1833 01:31:09,187 --> 01:31:12,107 Speaker 5: who are desperate, who are hungry, their backs against the wall. 1834 01:31:12,467 --> 01:31:15,627 Speaker 5: I just see the Warriors come out with both gloves 1835 01:31:15,667 --> 01:31:16,787 Speaker 5: up fighting all the way through. 1836 01:31:17,307 --> 01:31:20,627 Speaker 2: Are the Panthers a slightly less intimidating opponent than they 1837 01:31:20,707 --> 01:31:22,147 Speaker 2: have been in the last few years. 1838 01:31:24,947 --> 01:31:26,707 Speaker 5: When you look at the troubles that they had at 1839 01:31:26,747 --> 01:31:30,707 Speaker 5: the start of the season, and you know what just 1840 01:31:30,827 --> 01:31:32,947 Speaker 5: comes through what they have of experience, And you can't 1841 01:31:33,027 --> 01:31:36,187 Speaker 5: discount for any of that, especially at this time of year, 1842 01:31:37,147 --> 01:31:40,227 Speaker 5: their experience that doing the right things and getting ready 1843 01:31:40,587 --> 01:31:42,747 Speaker 5: at the right time. The coach gave them all the 1844 01:31:42,827 --> 01:31:46,067 Speaker 5: rest a couple of weeks ago, so they're freshened up 1845 01:31:46,107 --> 01:31:48,627 Speaker 5: a little bit and they're focused, but I think they're 1846 01:31:48,627 --> 01:31:51,267 Speaker 5: probe I think it's a great opportunity for the Warriors 1847 01:31:51,587 --> 01:31:53,187 Speaker 5: to turn things around. Next week. 1848 01:31:53,547 --> 01:31:55,307 Speaker 2: The Warriors come into the finals off the back of 1849 01:31:55,507 --> 01:31:57,387 Speaker 2: back to back defeats to the Eels and the Sea 1850 01:31:57,427 --> 01:32:00,387 Speaker 2: Eagles to finish their irregular season. Well, how easily can 1851 01:32:00,667 --> 01:32:02,947 Speaker 2: can that be put to one side and a clean 1852 01:32:03,107 --> 01:32:05,267 Speaker 2: slate applied for the finals. 1853 01:32:08,027 --> 01:32:11,107 Speaker 5: I was thinking about this after the loss on the 1854 01:32:11,147 --> 01:32:15,187 Speaker 5: weekend and now some of the stuff that was mentioned 1855 01:32:15,787 --> 01:32:19,147 Speaker 5: by us on Sky but also by Kirk Cape, well 1856 01:32:19,187 --> 01:32:22,467 Speaker 5: after the game. It's a new competition now the slate 1857 01:32:22,667 --> 01:32:26,147 Speaker 5: is clean and both things come to it's do or die, 1858 01:32:26,947 --> 01:32:29,147 Speaker 5: and the focus is just that when you're a player, 1859 01:32:29,227 --> 01:32:32,147 Speaker 5: you turn up on Monday and knowing that, okay, it's 1860 01:32:32,267 --> 01:32:35,067 Speaker 5: all or nothing now. So they'll will be a big 1861 01:32:35,147 --> 01:32:39,427 Speaker 5: focus in training going into this week. Session knows what's 1862 01:32:39,547 --> 01:32:42,187 Speaker 5: needed at this time of year as much as the 1863 01:32:42,227 --> 01:32:44,867 Speaker 5: opposition does. I think the guys will be ready and 1864 01:32:44,987 --> 01:32:48,667 Speaker 5: pumped the things to fix up technically, it's the errors. 1865 01:32:48,867 --> 01:32:50,867 Speaker 5: It's just the simple errors for them. It was the 1866 01:32:50,907 --> 01:32:54,987 Speaker 5: same against Paramatter and the same last week. So if 1867 01:32:55,027 --> 01:32:57,547 Speaker 5: they can dignify that, hold the ball, especially for a 1868 01:32:57,587 --> 01:33:02,507 Speaker 5: team that's prided itself so much on completing high they're 1869 01:33:02,707 --> 01:33:06,187 Speaker 5: just losing moments and opportunities to put the under put 1870 01:33:06,347 --> 01:33:09,227 Speaker 5: in opposition under pressure. So they can do that this week. 1871 01:33:09,507 --> 01:33:12,307 Speaker 5: Secure the ball, control the ball, control the game. 1872 01:33:12,987 --> 01:33:15,147 Speaker 2: Elimination of errors. Is that coachable? 1873 01:33:15,387 --> 01:33:15,547 Speaker 5: Well? 1874 01:33:15,587 --> 01:33:20,147 Speaker 2: He can you coach elimination of those of those errors there? 1875 01:33:20,227 --> 01:33:20,507 Speaker 27: You can? 1876 01:33:20,827 --> 01:33:23,147 Speaker 5: You can, And that's going to be a focus by 1877 01:33:23,227 --> 01:33:26,187 Speaker 5: the coach and whether that's just mere words but practice, 1878 01:33:26,267 --> 01:33:29,067 Speaker 5: and it's also an element of concentration and personal pride, 1879 01:33:30,027 --> 01:33:33,867 Speaker 5: and some of it is fundamentals. I'm knocking on at 1880 01:33:33,947 --> 01:33:37,907 Speaker 5: dummy half and simple catching of the ball as James 1881 01:33:37,947 --> 01:33:40,027 Speaker 5: f Sha Harris had and I'm not trying to point 1882 01:33:40,107 --> 01:33:45,707 Speaker 5: him out, but just those little moments, just be focused. 1883 01:33:45,747 --> 01:33:47,947 Speaker 5: As I said, they'll turn up on Monday ready switched 1884 01:33:47,987 --> 01:33:50,187 Speaker 5: on to go that I'll go into the game, whether 1885 01:33:50,267 --> 01:33:53,067 Speaker 5: that's Saturday or Sunday night. Sunday night, I'll be perfect. 1886 01:33:53,987 --> 01:33:56,067 Speaker 5: Gives them another day to build up and get themselves 1887 01:33:56,827 --> 01:33:57,667 Speaker 5: primed and ready to go. 1888 01:33:58,147 --> 01:34:00,107 Speaker 2: You mentioned James Fashaharis. There are a couple of times, 1889 01:34:00,227 --> 01:34:03,347 Speaker 2: nine seasons and all that success at the Panthers, and 1890 01:34:03,387 --> 01:34:05,507 Speaker 2: here he is in his first season the Warriors and 1891 01:34:05,587 --> 01:34:07,787 Speaker 2: he's facing the pan Does in his first knockout game 1892 01:34:07,827 --> 01:34:09,627 Speaker 2: for his new club. How do you reckon he'd be 1893 01:34:09,667 --> 01:34:12,347 Speaker 2: feeling pump pump. 1894 01:34:12,907 --> 01:34:15,507 Speaker 5: Yeah, he's a competitor. Yeah, he's you know, he's the 1895 01:34:15,587 --> 01:34:17,987 Speaker 5: leader of this group and he's thriving on it to 1896 01:34:18,147 --> 01:34:20,587 Speaker 5: helping pump ready to go. As soon as he won 1897 01:34:20,627 --> 01:34:25,347 Speaker 5: that Grand Final last week last year, his association with 1898 01:34:25,427 --> 01:34:27,387 Speaker 5: the Panthers was done. He was all focused on the 1899 01:34:27,467 --> 01:34:31,187 Speaker 5: Warriors getting ready to go. Yeah, he's going to be 1900 01:34:31,227 --> 01:34:34,187 Speaker 5: a truly inspirational character. And that dressing this week like 1901 01:34:34,267 --> 01:34:35,227 Speaker 5: he has done little seasons. 1902 01:34:35,467 --> 01:34:38,587 Speaker 2: We saw rocke Berry go afinger the other night. Don't 1903 01:34:38,627 --> 01:34:40,707 Speaker 2: know any any more about whether he'll be okay for 1904 01:34:40,787 --> 01:34:43,427 Speaker 2: this weekend. He's had a rotten run with injuries for 1905 01:34:43,547 --> 01:34:46,467 Speaker 2: years out. How big a blow is that for the Warriors? 1906 01:34:47,307 --> 01:34:51,227 Speaker 5: Yeah, it didn't look good, as you said, no official 1907 01:34:51,267 --> 01:34:54,307 Speaker 5: word about what injury it is and how significant it is. 1908 01:34:54,467 --> 01:34:56,747 Speaker 5: So now I think of the cross, but he's just yeah, 1909 01:34:56,747 --> 01:34:59,667 Speaker 5: he's had a tough time of it in twenty twenty five. 1910 01:35:01,067 --> 01:35:04,147 Speaker 5: It started in twenty twenty four and the season got 1911 01:35:04,227 --> 01:35:08,147 Speaker 5: played the start of it anyway, and yeah he's able 1912 01:35:08,187 --> 01:35:11,027 Speaker 5: to string three games together and then bang it goes again. 1913 01:35:11,147 --> 01:35:14,507 Speaker 5: So yeah, she'll be hoping that this year for him 1914 01:35:14,667 --> 01:35:18,147 Speaker 5: is just an anomaly. He gets a good preseason under 1915 01:35:18,147 --> 01:35:20,107 Speaker 5: his gets strong and healthy and come back. But he 1916 01:35:20,267 --> 01:35:22,587 Speaker 5: is a loss. He's a loss to that side and 1917 01:35:23,947 --> 01:35:27,507 Speaker 5: whoever they chuck in that position. And you know, the 1918 01:35:27,587 --> 01:35:29,587 Speaker 5: good thing is a couple of players have had a 1919 01:35:29,667 --> 01:35:31,987 Speaker 5: chance to be in that spot on the field for 1920 01:35:32,027 --> 01:35:35,587 Speaker 5: the Warriors this season, so there won't be unfamiliarity to 1921 01:35:35,707 --> 01:35:36,667 Speaker 5: whoever he puts in there. 1922 01:35:36,867 --> 01:35:38,867 Speaker 2: And on the plus side, I think Jackson Ford's available 1923 01:35:38,867 --> 01:35:41,427 Speaker 2: again after his suspension. So that's a boost, isn't it 1924 01:35:41,507 --> 01:35:42,667 Speaker 2: having Jackson Ford back there? 1925 01:35:43,307 --> 01:35:46,627 Speaker 5: Oh? Massively? Yeah, it sounds like him and Jacob Laban 1926 01:35:46,667 --> 01:35:50,427 Speaker 5: will we sit again, So a couple of extra bodies 1927 01:35:50,507 --> 01:35:52,387 Speaker 5: for the coach to pick from. But Jackson Ford or 1928 01:35:52,867 --> 01:35:54,827 Speaker 5: he's been great and then he played some long minutes 1929 01:35:54,867 --> 01:35:57,867 Speaker 5: and quality minutes for the Warriors when he's been out 1930 01:35:57,907 --> 01:36:01,747 Speaker 5: there again. He's had a moment to freshen up, get 1931 01:36:01,867 --> 01:36:05,387 Speaker 5: himself ready and writing and fast and steady to go 1932 01:36:05,547 --> 01:36:08,947 Speaker 5: for this week. You'll have some punch through that middles 1933 01:36:09,027 --> 01:36:09,867 Speaker 5: James Fisher House. 1934 01:36:10,147 --> 01:36:12,827 Speaker 2: Yeah, well we wait to see when and what time 1935 01:36:12,907 --> 01:36:14,627 Speaker 2: this game will be. We know they're facing the Panthers. 1936 01:36:14,667 --> 01:36:16,907 Speaker 2: Will find out when very soon. Will you always good 1937 01:36:16,947 --> 01:36:17,947 Speaker 2: to get your analysis, mate. 1938 01:36:17,867 --> 01:36:20,347 Speaker 5: Thanks for joining us, Thanks mate, thanks having us. 1939 01:36:20,427 --> 01:36:24,147 Speaker 2: No, thanks for joining us. Willy Willy poaching there part 1940 01:36:24,187 --> 01:36:28,187 Speaker 2: of the Sky Sport Rugby League team. So there are 1941 01:36:28,187 --> 01:36:30,067 Speaker 2: two games to go in the regular season, the Dolphins 1942 01:36:30,107 --> 01:36:32,387 Speaker 2: against the Raiders at four o'clock this afternoon, then the 1943 01:36:32,507 --> 01:36:35,867 Speaker 2: Eels against the Knights to finish. The results of those 1944 01:36:35,947 --> 01:36:38,467 Speaker 2: games will have no bearing on the table. The top 1945 01:36:38,587 --> 01:36:43,267 Speaker 2: eight is already decided, meaning that the first round of 1946 01:36:43,307 --> 01:36:47,987 Speaker 2: the finals is locked in again. We don't know when 1947 01:36:48,307 --> 01:36:50,027 Speaker 2: each of these games will we played, but we do 1948 01:36:50,267 --> 01:36:55,027 Speaker 2: know the four matchups in the qualifying finals. These are 1949 01:36:55,067 --> 01:36:58,427 Speaker 2: the ones which involve the top four sides. It'll be Raiders, 1950 01:36:58,507 --> 01:37:02,507 Speaker 2: Broncos and Storm Bulldogs. The winners will go through. The 1951 01:37:02,627 --> 01:37:09,947 Speaker 2: losers will play the winners of the elimination finals. Sharks Roosters, Warriors, Panthers, 1952 01:37:10,827 --> 01:37:13,147 Speaker 2: and I'm looking at some early odds for all of 1953 01:37:13,187 --> 01:37:16,787 Speaker 2: these games, and in all four the Warriors are the 1954 01:37:16,907 --> 01:37:21,307 Speaker 2: biggest outsider at the moment. They're paying three dollars ten 1955 01:37:21,467 --> 01:37:23,987 Speaker 2: to beat the Panthers, the Panthers paying a dollar thirty eight. 1956 01:37:24,787 --> 01:37:28,147 Speaker 2: This game will be at go Media Stadium, huge crowd 1957 01:37:28,267 --> 01:37:33,027 Speaker 2: in coming, massive weight of support behind the Warriors. You 1958 01:37:33,147 --> 01:37:36,387 Speaker 2: absolutely would not put it past them. It hasn't been 1959 01:37:36,427 --> 01:37:39,147 Speaker 2: the season of twenty twenty three where there was high 1960 01:37:39,227 --> 01:37:42,307 Speaker 2: consistency across the season and the Warriors went into the 1961 01:37:42,387 --> 01:37:45,627 Speaker 2: finals with confidence high. They're coming off the back of 1962 01:37:45,987 --> 01:37:49,707 Speaker 2: back to back defeats to the Eels and to Manly, 1963 01:37:49,907 --> 01:37:52,827 Speaker 2: neither of who will feature in the top eight. So 1964 01:37:52,987 --> 01:37:55,307 Speaker 2: you can probably understand why the bookies don't give them 1965 01:37:56,147 --> 01:37:58,387 Speaker 2: as much of a chance against the Panthers. But funny 1966 01:37:58,427 --> 01:38:02,547 Speaker 2: things happen in knockout games of sport, not just rugby league, 1967 01:38:03,427 --> 01:38:05,867 Speaker 2: all sport. What chance do you give them? We can 1968 01:38:05,907 --> 01:38:08,587 Speaker 2: take couple of calls, oh, eight hundred eighty, ten eighty 1969 01:38:08,707 --> 01:38:11,307 Speaker 2: if you want to give us your levels of optimism 1970 01:38:11,467 --> 01:38:15,267 Speaker 2: or otherwise for the Warriors.

What did 2005 01:40:03,467 --> 01:40:06,547 Speaker 2: you have to do to qualify for the work Old 2006 01:40:06,787 --> 01:40:08,507 Speaker 2: Long Drive Golf Championship. 2007 01:40:10,027 --> 01:40:14,307 Speaker 27: Yeah, it's so sport itself is pretty simple. Basically, stand 2008 01:40:14,387 --> 01:40:17,947 Speaker 27: up there, You've got two and a half minutes. Me 2009 01:40:18,027 --> 01:40:19,907 Speaker 27: and you head against each other, so we both hit 2010 01:40:19,947 --> 01:40:22,387 Speaker 27: six spores each and whoever hits the longest ball wins. 2011 01:40:23,427 --> 01:40:27,147 Speaker 27: So sport itself is pretty simple. You sort of have 2012 01:40:27,267 --> 01:40:29,267 Speaker 27: to work within I guess a parameter. You can't just 2013 01:40:29,347 --> 01:40:32,347 Speaker 27: hit it anywhere. Kind of what most users would think 2014 01:40:32,427 --> 01:40:34,467 Speaker 27: is sort of a typical golf feel way is kind. 2015 01:40:34,307 --> 01:40:37,707 Speaker 9: Of the width of the of the grid. But yeah, 2016 01:40:37,747 --> 01:40:41,547 Speaker 9: sports pretty simple. In terms of getting to Worlds. 2017 01:40:41,587 --> 01:40:44,947 Speaker 27: I was fortunate enough Golf Australia had a couple of 2018 01:40:45,027 --> 01:40:47,827 Speaker 27: tickets to the World Champs on off as part of 2019 01:40:48,067 --> 01:40:51,107 Speaker 27: a series that they run over summer, and I was 2020 01:40:51,147 --> 01:40:56,067 Speaker 27: fortunate enough to win the Australian PGA Championship, which is 2021 01:40:56,147 --> 01:40:59,267 Speaker 27: sort of held in conjunction with the actual Australian PGA 2022 01:41:00,427 --> 01:41:03,067 Speaker 27: over in Brisbane. So fortunate enough to win that and 2023 01:41:03,507 --> 01:41:06,187 Speaker 27: obviously secure ticket to Worlds, which is super exciting. 2024 01:41:06,507 --> 01:41:09,267 Speaker 2: So you talked about going head to head with another competitor. 2025 01:41:09,347 --> 01:41:12,227 Speaker 2: How many rounds of that are there before the final? 2026 01:41:14,187 --> 01:41:17,227 Speaker 9: So in the States it'll be it'll be about four. 2027 01:41:18,707 --> 01:41:21,427 Speaker 27: Four rounds as far as I know the formats, So 2028 01:41:21,507 --> 01:41:24,947 Speaker 27: you run in groups of sixteen and basically you do 2029 01:41:25,187 --> 01:41:27,707 Speaker 27: five rounds, which is thirty four so five sets or 2030 01:41:27,747 --> 01:41:30,827 Speaker 27: six and you get a points system and then the top. 2031 01:41:30,707 --> 01:41:33,107 Speaker 9: Eight produced through the next round, so you do. 2032 01:41:33,587 --> 01:41:36,867 Speaker 27: I think it's five qualifying rounds and then after that 2033 01:41:37,027 --> 01:41:41,827 Speaker 27: you go into knockouts, and knockouts is typically quarterfinals, semi final, final. 2034 01:41:42,147 --> 01:41:44,627 Speaker 2: Gotcha? Is it where it lands or where it stops? 2035 01:41:46,307 --> 01:41:50,547 Speaker 27: It's where it stops, so you can't actually it has 2036 01:41:50,587 --> 01:41:52,987 Speaker 27: to stay in the grid the whole time. It can't 2037 01:41:53,027 --> 01:41:54,787 Speaker 27: go out and back in, so there's no heading trees 2038 01:41:54,907 --> 01:41:58,467 Speaker 27: or houses and popping back into the grid. But it's 2039 01:41:58,547 --> 01:42:00,987 Speaker 27: where it lands and rolls. So that's part of the 2040 01:42:01,067 --> 01:42:04,547 Speaker 27: sport really is every track is different. Some tracks have 2041 01:42:04,987 --> 01:42:07,147 Speaker 27: you know, it's like a runway with a hard ground, 2042 01:42:07,227 --> 01:42:10,467 Speaker 27: and some tracks are light in terms of the soft 2043 01:42:11,547 --> 01:42:13,107 Speaker 27: mard and then you've got wind. 2044 01:42:12,947 --> 01:42:16,307 Speaker 9: Factors and there's a lot to it. But ye's where 2045 01:42:16,347 --> 01:42:16,907 Speaker 9: it ends up. 2046 01:42:17,347 --> 01:42:19,267 Speaker 2: What is your best distance. 2047 01:42:20,787 --> 01:42:24,107 Speaker 27: In the final of Australian the Australian Champs, I had 2048 01:42:24,147 --> 01:42:25,947 Speaker 27: at three hundred and eighty six. 2049 01:42:25,987 --> 01:42:30,987 Speaker 2: Meters three hundred and eighty six meters, Yeah, yeah, good. 2050 01:42:31,587 --> 01:42:35,227 Speaker 2: Where would that get you? Theoretically if you hit that 2051 01:42:35,307 --> 01:42:37,147 Speaker 2: at the World Champs. Where would that get you? 2052 01:42:38,827 --> 01:42:39,467 Speaker 16: Not very far? 2053 01:42:39,947 --> 01:42:40,227 Speaker 5: Really. 2054 01:42:40,387 --> 01:42:42,787 Speaker 27: There was a smile on my face because it's in Denver, 2055 01:42:43,947 --> 01:42:47,627 Speaker 27: which is in the middle of a super high altitude, 2056 01:42:47,747 --> 01:42:50,827 Speaker 27: So because the altitude is so high up there, people 2057 01:42:50,867 --> 01:42:54,307 Speaker 27: are probably heading it closer to four ten four hundred 2058 01:42:54,307 --> 01:42:54,787 Speaker 27: and twenty. 2059 01:42:54,667 --> 01:42:56,707 Speaker 9: Meters for about four hundred and fifty yards. 2060 01:42:58,187 --> 01:43:00,027 Speaker 27: I believe last time they were up there for an event, 2061 01:43:00,107 --> 01:43:02,107 Speaker 27: they were trying to get close to five hundred yards. 2062 01:43:02,187 --> 01:43:07,547 Speaker 27: So it is all very weather dependent, but yeah, you'll 2063 01:43:07,547 --> 01:43:09,547 Speaker 27: probably need something closer to the full fifty mark. 2064 01:43:09,547 --> 01:43:12,107 Speaker 2: I'd say that is incredible. So do you feel that 2065 01:43:12,627 --> 01:43:15,147 Speaker 2: is something you've got in your locker? Could you hit 2066 01:43:15,187 --> 01:43:15,547 Speaker 2: it that far? 2067 01:43:17,787 --> 01:43:19,787 Speaker 27: I think if things go my way, yeah, for sure. 2068 01:43:20,187 --> 01:43:23,187 Speaker 27: I've been working a lot this year on basically just 2069 01:43:23,307 --> 01:43:26,987 Speaker 27: raw power and speed. Obviously there's a massive skill acquisition 2070 01:43:27,107 --> 01:43:29,227 Speaker 27: in terms of knowing how to fight to it, knowing 2071 01:43:29,307 --> 01:43:31,187 Speaker 27: how to spin rates, all that sorte of thing. But 2072 01:43:31,667 --> 01:43:33,427 Speaker 27: one thing I've been working a lot on this year 2073 01:43:33,547 --> 01:43:36,387 Speaker 27: is my speed and making sure that if I hit 2074 01:43:36,467 --> 01:43:38,507 Speaker 27: my best ball and one of the top guys that 2075 01:43:38,587 --> 01:43:40,187 Speaker 27: said best ball, that we're. 2076 01:43:40,627 --> 01:43:41,947 Speaker 9: Somewhat close enough to each other. 2077 01:43:43,667 --> 01:43:47,147 Speaker 27: And yeah, it's still a work in progress to bring 2078 01:43:47,227 --> 01:43:49,347 Speaker 27: it all together in the next sort of seven eight weeks, 2079 01:43:49,387 --> 01:43:51,867 Speaker 27: but we're getting closer and close to to bridgingnet gap, 2080 01:43:51,907 --> 01:43:53,987 Speaker 27: which long term is the goal. 2081 01:43:54,187 --> 01:43:58,307 Speaker 2: Incredible. So power and speed is there one that you 2082 01:43:58,387 --> 01:44:00,907 Speaker 2: know you talked about working on your speed there you've 2083 01:44:00,987 --> 01:44:03,427 Speaker 2: clearly pinpointed that as an area where you can get 2084 01:44:03,467 --> 01:44:06,147 Speaker 2: your biggest gains or are you also still trying to 2085 01:44:06,147 --> 01:44:08,267 Speaker 2: get as much power as you can? Plus there must 2086 01:44:08,307 --> 01:44:10,707 Speaker 2: be technique issues here too, surely. 2087 01:44:11,147 --> 01:44:13,387 Speaker 27: Yeah, Yeah, Well I came from a background of golf, 2088 01:44:13,507 --> 01:44:16,787 Speaker 27: so there is a massive technical issue which is learning 2089 01:44:16,827 --> 01:44:19,627 Speaker 27: how to untrain my golf swing and get into a 2090 01:44:19,667 --> 01:44:22,667 Speaker 27: long drive swing. In terms of areas to work on, 2091 01:44:22,827 --> 01:44:25,747 Speaker 27: I think it's it's probably more of a speed element. 2092 01:44:25,787 --> 01:44:29,107 Speaker 27: I think definitely strong enough than powerful enough in the 2093 01:44:29,187 --> 01:44:32,907 Speaker 27: gym retrospect to compete with the long drive guys. But 2094 01:44:33,387 --> 01:44:35,667 Speaker 27: I think there's an element for reps under the belt 2095 01:44:36,307 --> 01:44:38,947 Speaker 27: and just making sure that my top in speed is 2096 01:44:39,347 --> 01:44:42,987 Speaker 27: good enough to compete with the rest of the rest 2097 01:44:43,027 --> 01:44:43,387 Speaker 27: of the world. 2098 01:44:45,187 --> 01:44:48,147 Speaker 9: But yeah, in terms of yeah, it's a tough sport. 2099 01:44:48,227 --> 01:44:49,667 Speaker 9: It's one of those ones where you've. 2100 01:44:49,547 --> 01:44:51,547 Speaker 27: Got to make sure that you're not trying to do 2101 01:44:51,627 --> 01:44:53,787 Speaker 27: your top in speed all times of all times of 2102 01:44:53,827 --> 01:44:56,547 Speaker 27: the year, or else you will. 2103 01:44:56,467 --> 01:44:58,107 Speaker 9: End up sort of breaking your body a little bit. 2104 01:44:58,187 --> 01:45:01,667 Speaker 27: So there's there's elements which are technical times and at 2105 01:45:01,667 --> 01:45:03,427 Speaker 27: the moment sort of coming to the. 2106 01:45:03,427 --> 01:45:06,667 Speaker 9: Back end of our winter and all the technical stuff been. 2107 01:45:06,587 --> 01:45:08,827 Speaker 27: Done and now to be bringing it all together and 2108 01:45:08,907 --> 01:45:10,547 Speaker 27: putting it out onto the grid. 2109 01:45:10,587 --> 01:45:13,067 Speaker 2: As they say, how are the crowds at these events? 2110 01:45:14,747 --> 01:45:15,667 Speaker 9: They are phenomenal. 2111 01:45:15,787 --> 01:45:18,267 Speaker 27: There's some events which we've been lucky to be involved with. 2112 01:45:18,427 --> 01:45:22,027 Speaker 27: The Ozziepga was an awesome event last year. 2113 01:45:22,067 --> 01:45:22,587 Speaker 5: They ran it. 2114 01:45:23,267 --> 01:45:25,027 Speaker 9: They had fireworks on the first tee. 2115 01:45:25,547 --> 01:45:29,307 Speaker 27: They basically as soon as the Ozziepga on the Saturday 2116 01:45:29,347 --> 01:45:32,627 Speaker 27: afternoon had finished, they had all the crowd and moved 2117 01:45:32,627 --> 01:45:35,307 Speaker 27: straight over to the first tee. They had fireworks, they 2118 01:45:35,387 --> 01:45:40,267 Speaker 27: had like flamethrowers. They had about probably five six hundred 2119 01:45:40,307 --> 01:45:43,627 Speaker 27: people there watching and we basically ran our event at 2120 01:45:43,667 --> 01:45:45,747 Speaker 27: the exact same time as they just came off. I 2121 01:45:45,787 --> 01:45:47,707 Speaker 27: think it was minule just come off the eighteenth Green. 2122 01:45:47,827 --> 01:45:49,387 Speaker 27: So they tried to put on a bit of a 2123 01:45:49,427 --> 01:45:51,067 Speaker 27: spectacle and have a bit of fun with it, especially 2124 01:45:51,107 --> 01:45:51,267 Speaker 27: for a. 2125 01:45:51,267 --> 01:45:53,747 Speaker 2: Lot of the corporates that are around so good and 2126 01:45:53,867 --> 01:45:55,987 Speaker 2: as their price money involved here, Chris. 2127 01:45:58,307 --> 01:46:00,987 Speaker 9: There is I actually am not actually sure. 2128 01:46:02,107 --> 01:46:05,467 Speaker 27: It's not really the motivator, And to be honest, I 2129 01:46:05,507 --> 01:46:07,347 Speaker 27: couldn't actually tell you what the prize money is for 2130 01:46:07,587 --> 01:46:11,387 Speaker 27: World Champs. It's only my second time heading over to 2131 01:46:11,427 --> 01:46:12,627 Speaker 27: the States for this, so. 2132 01:46:13,427 --> 01:46:14,227 Speaker 31: I hope so. 2133 01:46:16,747 --> 01:46:16,987 Speaker 5: I know. 2134 01:46:17,787 --> 01:46:21,747 Speaker 27: I think last year is about forty grand us potentially 2135 01:46:21,827 --> 01:46:24,227 Speaker 27: for first place, but I honestly could not tell that. 2136 01:46:24,267 --> 01:46:26,267 Speaker 2: I actually quite like the fact you don't know. I 2137 01:46:26,627 --> 01:46:28,907 Speaker 2: think that says a lot about your motivation for this, 2138 01:46:29,107 --> 01:46:31,267 Speaker 2: just trying to smack it as far as you can. 2139 01:46:32,027 --> 01:46:34,867 Speaker 2: What is your Do you still play regular golf? And 2140 01:46:35,067 --> 01:46:37,987 Speaker 2: you talked about having to adjust because obviously you know 2141 01:46:38,107 --> 01:46:39,587 Speaker 2: you don't want to have it that far off every 2142 01:46:39,867 --> 01:46:42,827 Speaker 2: every tea that you walk onto. So do you still 2143 01:46:42,867 --> 01:46:44,627 Speaker 2: play a bit of regular golf as well? 2144 01:46:45,827 --> 01:46:46,347 Speaker 5: I used to. 2145 01:46:46,707 --> 01:46:48,147 Speaker 27: I used to when I first started a long job. 2146 01:46:48,187 --> 01:46:50,667 Speaker 27: I did, but my coach, funnily enough, has banned me. 2147 01:46:51,547 --> 01:46:54,227 Speaker 27: He said it missus with my swing too much, going 2148 01:46:54,267 --> 01:46:56,067 Speaker 27: from drivers to irons and all that sort of thing. 2149 01:46:56,147 --> 01:46:59,907 Speaker 27: So I've taken a back chef unfortunately from golf, and 2150 01:47:00,707 --> 01:47:01,907 Speaker 27: I will get back into it. 2151 01:47:02,027 --> 01:47:05,627 Speaker 9: I play a fine ambrose of in every labor day. 2152 01:47:06,467 --> 01:47:08,267 Speaker 27: I played probably two or three around a year, but 2153 01:47:09,547 --> 01:47:12,867 Speaker 27: and probably playoff for maybe a tour or three, which 2154 01:47:12,947 --> 01:47:16,467 Speaker 27: is largely through the long drives and terrible puttings. So 2155 01:47:18,867 --> 01:47:21,627 Speaker 27: you can get an agree with any three partners at 2156 01:47:21,667 --> 01:47:21,947 Speaker 27: the part. 2157 01:47:22,027 --> 01:47:23,907 Speaker 2: Well, let's drive for show PUFA do Isn't that? That's 2158 01:47:23,947 --> 01:47:27,067 Speaker 2: the old adage? And well, obviously you're driving at what 2159 01:47:27,427 --> 01:47:29,427 Speaker 2: do they provide you with the golf balls? Does everyone 2160 01:47:29,507 --> 01:47:31,387 Speaker 2: use the same kind of golf balls? You clip obviously 2161 01:47:31,387 --> 01:47:34,107 Speaker 2: don't bring your own, yeah, so you have to use what. 2162 01:47:34,147 --> 01:47:34,587 Speaker 9: They give you. 2163 01:47:34,747 --> 01:47:36,907 Speaker 27: So that's part of I guess the preparation as well 2164 01:47:37,107 --> 01:47:40,067 Speaker 27: is what balls are they're using, how do they compress, 2165 01:47:41,067 --> 01:47:43,507 Speaker 27: how do they fly? Last year they used a Bridgestone ball. 2166 01:47:44,187 --> 01:47:47,267 Speaker 27: This year they've gone with Pinnacle as their main sponsors, 2167 01:47:47,267 --> 01:47:48,947 Speaker 27: is using Pinnacle balls. So it's all part of the 2168 01:47:49,027 --> 01:47:51,147 Speaker 27: training is how do I get the most out of 2169 01:47:51,227 --> 01:47:53,987 Speaker 27: that specific golf ball as well, So we spend a 2170 01:47:53,987 --> 01:47:57,147 Speaker 27: lot of time in simulators looking at numbers, spin rates, 2171 01:47:57,627 --> 01:48:00,227 Speaker 27: especially for different types of golf balls. So there anything 2172 01:48:00,267 --> 01:48:03,427 Speaker 27: consonant is obviously what we use in terms of the gear, 2173 01:48:03,507 --> 01:48:06,107 Speaker 27: but then in terms of the balls and stuff, they 2174 01:48:06,387 --> 01:48:08,107 Speaker 27: by them more, which is good because you end up 2175 01:48:08,267 --> 01:48:08,987 Speaker 27: losing most of them. 2176 01:48:08,987 --> 01:48:12,067 Speaker 2: Anyway I can imagine, Hey, mate, this is just awesome. 2177 01:48:12,147 --> 01:48:13,787 Speaker 2: I'm just so pleased we've had the chance to chat 2178 01:48:13,827 --> 01:48:16,267 Speaker 2: about this. So what your head off what middle of September, 2179 01:48:16,347 --> 01:48:18,507 Speaker 2: get yourself acclimatized, and then get into it. 2180 01:48:18,587 --> 01:48:21,667 Speaker 27: On about the twenty fifth I think, yeah, Unfortunately we 2181 01:48:21,667 --> 01:48:23,147 Speaker 27: would like to be more time over there, but we 2182 01:48:23,267 --> 01:48:25,667 Speaker 27: head over about five I think four or five days 2183 01:48:25,707 --> 01:48:27,347 Speaker 27: before get acclimatized. 2184 01:48:27,867 --> 01:48:29,707 Speaker 9: It's been a week over there, which would be really good. 2185 01:48:29,747 --> 01:48:32,547 Speaker 27: And then our season kicks off, so we've got a 2186 01:48:32,627 --> 01:48:35,547 Speaker 27: fear bit of travel end of the year China and 2187 01:48:35,627 --> 01:48:38,907 Speaker 27: Australia and stuff, which is cool. So it's exciting time 2188 01:48:38,947 --> 01:48:40,867 Speaker 27: a year to be doing a bit of long driving, 2189 01:48:40,907 --> 01:48:42,787 Speaker 27: getting out and traveling the world as well, which is 2190 01:48:42,827 --> 01:48:43,507 Speaker 27: always a bit of fun. 2191 01:48:43,587 --> 01:48:45,547 Speaker 2: So there's actually a season. There's a circuit for this 2192 01:48:45,667 --> 01:48:47,307 Speaker 2: as well, so this World Champs is just one of 2193 01:48:47,347 --> 01:48:48,827 Speaker 2: the things you're involved in. 2194 01:48:49,587 --> 01:48:49,787 Speaker 5: Yeah. 2195 01:48:49,987 --> 01:48:52,507 Speaker 27: Yeah, there's an American circuit which is the World Long 2196 01:48:52,587 --> 01:48:55,827 Speaker 27: Drive Circuit. There is also a New Zealand circuit which 2197 01:48:56,227 --> 01:48:58,787 Speaker 27: XDL and New Zealand run, which is really cool. We're 2198 01:48:58,827 --> 01:49:00,907 Speaker 27: lucky to have I guess sort of five or six 2199 01:49:00,947 --> 01:49:04,867 Speaker 27: events here and then the Australian circuit. There's an Asian circuit, 2200 01:49:04,987 --> 01:49:07,867 Speaker 27: so it's kind of what you can afford to do. 2201 01:49:07,987 --> 01:49:10,427 Speaker 27: Obviously in America it's it's costly to get over there, 2202 01:49:11,627 --> 01:49:15,467 Speaker 27: and it's it's not a cheap trip, but we sort 2203 01:49:15,467 --> 01:49:17,107 Speaker 27: of get over here as much as you can because 2204 01:49:17,107 --> 01:49:19,587 Speaker 27: that's I guess we're the world ranking points are, that's 2205 01:49:19,747 --> 01:49:23,347 Speaker 27: the wod events are, That's that's ultimately where we want 2206 01:49:23,387 --> 01:49:27,067 Speaker 27: to be at. But the World Champs is the krem 2207 01:49:27,107 --> 01:49:29,587 Speaker 27: de la creme and that's what he runs trying to win. 2208 01:49:29,747 --> 01:49:30,827 Speaker 27: So fortunate enough to. 2209 01:49:30,827 --> 01:49:33,867 Speaker 9: Be there this year and hopefully show them a little 2210 01:49:33,867 --> 01:49:35,267 Speaker 9: bit about what Keywis can do. 2211 01:49:35,667 --> 01:49:38,627 Speaker 2: So good mate. Look, it's been great chatting to you, Chris. 2212 01:49:38,707 --> 01:49:40,827 Speaker 2: All the best mate. Can't wait to see how you go. 2213 01:49:41,627 --> 01:49:43,747 Speaker 9: No, awesome, appreciate the time, Thanks very much, No. 2214 01:49:43,907 --> 01:49:46,467 Speaker 2: Thank you for your time, Chris. What a what a 2215 01:49:46,587 --> 01:49:50,067 Speaker 2: fascinating chat. Chris Charlton one of the key we is 2216 01:49:50,107 --> 01:49:53,307 Speaker 2: qualifying for the World Long Drive Golf Championships in the 2217 01:49:53,427 --> 01:49:56,947 Speaker 2: US late September this year. So interesting he's coach. This 2218 01:49:57,067 --> 01:50:00,507 Speaker 2: coach doesn't let him play normal golf anymore. Love that 2219 01:50:00,667 --> 01:50:04,067 Speaker 2: We'll keep track of Chris's progress when he's over in 2220 01:50:04,147 --> 01:50:06,627 Speaker 2: the US later on this month, and let you how 2221 01:50:06,707 --> 01:50:07,027 Speaker 2: he goes. 2222 01:50:07,467 --> 01:50:08,067 Speaker 5: What did he say? 2223 01:50:08,347 --> 01:50:11,787 Speaker 2: Close to five hundred yards? I reckon some of the 2224 01:50:11,867 --> 01:50:14,707 Speaker 2: top guys can get that is a long way, a 2225 01:50:14,827 --> 01:50:17,867 Speaker 2: long long way. A couple of text throw on the Warriors, Piney. 2226 01:50:18,027 --> 01:50:21,707 Speaker 2: I think the Warriors with no expectations, says Andrew, on 2227 01:50:21,827 --> 01:50:24,267 Speaker 2: their shoulders, and you are do you rather to have 2228 01:50:24,347 --> 01:50:26,947 Speaker 2: a blinder at home? And they're a very dangerous side 2229 01:50:26,987 --> 01:50:28,747 Speaker 2: When they do, they'll know they're not going to win 2230 01:50:28,787 --> 01:50:31,307 Speaker 2: the comp this year, but taking out the Panthers will 2231 01:50:31,347 --> 01:50:33,667 Speaker 2: be deemed to success for me and possibly for them 2232 01:50:34,187 --> 01:50:37,307 Speaker 2: as well. Thanks Andrew. Piney either says this one reminds 2233 01:50:37,347 --> 01:50:40,267 Speaker 2: me when the Warriors from eighth beat top of the 2234 01:50:40,307 --> 01:50:43,707 Speaker 2: table Melbourne in the two thousand and sixth finals, the 2235 01:50:43,787 --> 01:50:46,747 Speaker 2: only time an eighth place team has beaten a first 2236 01:50:46,787 --> 01:50:51,267 Speaker 2: place team. Yeah, I guess that the underdog has in 2237 01:50:51,347 --> 01:50:55,347 Speaker 2: the past emerged victorious. The irony here is that the 2238 01:50:55,427 --> 01:50:58,387 Speaker 2: Warriors finished higher than the Panthers, so the table would 2239 01:50:58,387 --> 01:50:59,947 Speaker 2: tell you that the Warriors should be favorite, but it 2240 01:51:00,027 --> 01:51:03,507 Speaker 2: is the Panthers four time defending champions. HAMI says Piet 2241 01:51:03,507 --> 01:51:07,107 Speaker 2: Stop trying to get my hopes up made. I have 2242 01:51:07,267 --> 01:51:10,747 Speaker 2: the same probability of winning Lotto as the Warriors do 2243 01:51:10,827 --> 01:51:12,787 Speaker 2: of winning this game. It's possible, but it won't happen. 2244 01:51:14,547 --> 01:51:19,027 Speaker 2: Amoush Anything is possible, Mate, anything is possible. Live Sport 2245 01:51:19,107 --> 01:51:22,067 Speaker 2: Chatham Cup Final. Auckland United have port a goalback, but 2246 01:51:22,147 --> 01:51:25,347 Speaker 2: Wellington Limps have scored another one too. Thirteen minutes to 2247 01:51:25,387 --> 01:51:31,067 Speaker 2: go in our top domestic men's knockout competition and Wellington 2248 01:51:31,147 --> 01:51:35,467 Speaker 2: Olympic leading Auckland United by four goals to two, and 2249 01:51:35,667 --> 01:51:38,267 Speaker 2: in the Bunnings MPC may have plenty of extended their 2250 01:51:38,347 --> 01:51:41,547 Speaker 2: lead over Tananaki. They now lead twelve three after half 2251 01:51:41,547 --> 01:51:45,307 Speaker 2: an hour of their game in New Plymouth and Far 2252 01:51:46,107 --> 01:51:50,307 Speaker 2: Palmer Cup Rugby from Lansdowne Park in Blenham, North Harbor, 2253 01:51:50,707 --> 01:51:53,547 Speaker 2: Head of Tasman, fourteen points to five after half an 2254 01:51:53,547 --> 01:51:57,187 Speaker 2: hour in that one, coming up twenty two away from three. 2255 01:51:57,347 --> 01:52:00,787 Speaker 2: High excitement among fans of American sport.

The new NFL season is underway. 2264 01:52:28,907 --> 01:52:31,627 Speaker 2: This is American football, of course, leading to the Super 2265 01:52:31,707 --> 01:52:34,627 Speaker 2: Bowl in February. A couple of games already Eagles twenty four, 2266 01:52:34,667 --> 01:52:37,707 Speaker 2: Cowboys twenty Chargers, too good for the Chiefs twenty seven 2267 01:52:37,707 --> 01:52:40,427 Speaker 2: to twenty one. That game was played in Brazil. A 2268 01:52:40,627 --> 01:52:43,307 Speaker 2: raft of games tomorrow, New Zealand time. The big day 2269 01:52:43,387 --> 01:52:45,907 Speaker 2: four NFL over here is Monday. It's Sunday over there, 2270 01:52:46,307 --> 01:52:48,507 Speaker 2: and then there's a Monday night game which folds into 2271 01:52:48,547 --> 01:52:52,067 Speaker 2: Tuesday morning over here. Let's bring in senior football writer 2272 01:52:52,267 --> 01:52:55,627 Speaker 2: with ESPN, Bill Barnwell. Bill, great to have you join 2273 01:52:55,747 --> 01:52:57,627 Speaker 2: us across New Zealand with a bit of a preview 2274 01:52:57,667 --> 01:53:00,627 Speaker 2: of the new season. The Eagles at a winning start 2275 01:53:00,827 --> 01:53:03,907 Speaker 2: their Super Bowl champions of course from last season. Are 2276 01:53:03,987 --> 01:53:06,187 Speaker 2: they looking like they could go back to back? 2277 01:53:08,107 --> 01:53:12,827 Speaker 8: Certainly, although definitely some question marks. This wasn't the sort 2278 01:53:12,867 --> 01:53:15,667 Speaker 8: of comprehensive when you would expect in front of your 2279 01:53:15,707 --> 01:53:19,387 Speaker 8: fans obviously started in very curious fashion with Jalen Carter, 2280 01:53:19,507 --> 01:53:22,787 Speaker 8: their best defensive player, getting ejected before the game. It 2281 01:53:22,907 --> 01:53:26,747 Speaker 8: really even started for spitting on one of the Cowboys players. 2282 01:53:26,947 --> 01:53:30,027 Speaker 8: Very odd starts the game, and it was close throughout. 2283 01:53:30,027 --> 01:53:32,227 Speaker 8: It was not a game where they dominated a Cowboys 2284 01:53:32,267 --> 01:53:34,587 Speaker 8: team that's not really expected to compete this year. So 2285 01:53:35,427 --> 01:53:38,787 Speaker 8: maybe some questions, but certainly any victory is a victory, 2286 01:53:38,827 --> 01:53:39,267 Speaker 8: I suppose. 2287 01:53:39,627 --> 01:53:41,827 Speaker 2: What about some of the other contend is I'll give 2288 01:53:41,827 --> 01:53:45,307 Speaker 2: you a few teams, the Bills, the Ravens, the Lions, 2289 01:53:45,547 --> 01:53:48,627 Speaker 2: teams that haven't quite got there but have been close. 2290 01:53:48,867 --> 01:53:50,867 Speaker 2: Could they take the next step this time? 2291 01:53:52,147 --> 01:53:52,747 Speaker 8: Oh, certainly. 2292 01:53:53,187 --> 01:53:53,747 Speaker 22: And there's a. 2293 01:53:55,427 --> 01:53:59,227 Speaker 8: There's no team that feels inbeatable right now in the NFL. 2294 01:53:59,267 --> 01:54:01,227 Speaker 8: The Eagles were excellent last year. That they lost a 2295 01:54:01,347 --> 01:54:04,427 Speaker 8: lot of firepower on the defensive ball, something in censive 2296 01:54:04,427 --> 01:54:05,787 Speaker 8: side of the ball, I should say, about forty four 2297 01:54:05,827 --> 01:54:08,507 Speaker 8: percent of the they had last year from their players. 2298 01:54:08,587 --> 01:54:11,227 Speaker 8: Now they've gone elsewhere. So a lot of young talent 2299 01:54:11,307 --> 01:54:14,347 Speaker 8: on the Eagles, but certainly they feel more vulnerable. And 2300 01:54:14,427 --> 01:54:16,387 Speaker 8: the Chiefs, who had been the two times Super Bowl 2301 01:54:16,387 --> 01:54:20,347 Speaker 8: winners before that, lost to the Eagles in the Super 2302 01:54:20,387 --> 01:54:22,707 Speaker 8: Bowl last year, did get their season off to a 2303 01:54:22,827 --> 01:54:25,547 Speaker 8: loss in Brazil, so they're already all in one, and 2304 01:54:25,587 --> 01:54:28,587 Speaker 8: they played the Eagles next week in the marquee matchup 2305 01:54:28,627 --> 01:54:31,667 Speaker 8: of Week two in the NFL. So definitely feels like 2306 01:54:31,827 --> 01:54:34,187 Speaker 8: the top of the league is vulnerable. Really a lot 2307 01:54:34,267 --> 01:54:36,627 Speaker 8: of teams who could compete the Packers making you big 2308 01:54:36,707 --> 01:54:40,827 Speaker 8: move for Micah Parsons the start offensive and rusher before 2309 01:54:40,907 --> 01:54:43,387 Speaker 8: the season a couple weeks ago. But it does feel 2310 01:54:43,427 --> 01:54:45,227 Speaker 8: like a lot of teams could do it. But no 2311 01:54:45,387 --> 01:54:47,387 Speaker 8: team really a clear favorite right now. 2312 01:54:47,867 --> 01:54:51,547 Speaker 2: Do you evaluate where the Chiefs are at? Clearly still 2313 01:54:51,547 --> 01:54:55,547 Speaker 2: a very very good football team. Will I continue the 2314 01:54:55,747 --> 01:54:57,227 Speaker 2: run of consistent excellence. 2315 01:54:58,747 --> 01:55:01,707 Speaker 8: I do think they'll be excellent. But I wonder how 2316 01:55:01,787 --> 01:55:03,787 Speaker 8: they react to the Super Bowl loss last year, because 2317 01:55:03,787 --> 01:55:06,107 Speaker 8: it wasn't one thing to lose in a close game 2318 01:55:06,467 --> 01:55:08,587 Speaker 8: and feel like, oh maybe it wasn't our day. They 2319 01:55:08,747 --> 01:55:11,627 Speaker 8: really were overwhelmed, They really were blown out by the 2320 01:55:11,787 --> 01:55:13,907 Speaker 8: Eagles from the very start of that game to the 2321 01:55:14,067 --> 01:55:19,427 Speaker 8: very end, and so they have I wonder how motivated. 2322 01:55:18,947 --> 01:55:19,427 Speaker 9: They're going to be. 2323 01:55:19,507 --> 01:55:21,187 Speaker 8: You know, they'd won two Super Bowls in a row. 2324 01:55:21,667 --> 01:55:24,227 Speaker 8: Certainly maybe like, you know, what else is there to conquer? 2325 01:55:24,307 --> 01:55:27,667 Speaker 8: Sort of feeling. Now they have every reason to be motivated. Now, 2326 01:55:27,747 --> 01:55:31,227 Speaker 8: they have every reason to be incentivized to prove Hey, 2327 01:55:31,307 --> 01:55:33,707 Speaker 8: that was just the fluke. We really are the best 2328 01:55:33,747 --> 01:55:36,187 Speaker 8: team in football. But a lot of the players, a 2329 01:55:36,227 --> 01:55:39,067 Speaker 8: lot of even the coaches there, Andy Reid, Chris Jones, 2330 01:55:39,187 --> 01:55:43,067 Speaker 8: Travis Kelsey and not Patrick Mahomes. You know, it's the 2331 01:55:43,107 --> 01:55:45,067 Speaker 8: first three guys thirty year old. Are Patrick mahonmes now 2332 01:55:45,067 --> 01:55:48,187 Speaker 8: getting into you know, the veteran phase of his career. 2333 01:55:48,627 --> 01:55:50,947 Speaker 8: You sort of wonder have they gone as far as 2334 01:55:51,027 --> 01:55:52,907 Speaker 8: they can with that core and do they maybe need 2335 01:55:52,987 --> 01:55:55,987 Speaker 8: to you know, replenish it and refresh a bit, or 2336 01:55:56,387 --> 01:55:58,667 Speaker 8: do they have one more title in them? It feels like, 2337 01:55:59,267 --> 01:56:01,227 Speaker 8: you know, after an only one start playing maybe the 2338 01:56:01,267 --> 01:56:03,507 Speaker 8: best team in football in League two, the Chiefs could 2339 01:56:03,547 --> 01:56:06,187 Speaker 8: really be, you know, playing from behind the eight ball 2340 01:56:06,387 --> 01:56:09,027 Speaker 8: very quickly, which is not something they're used to. They 2341 01:56:09,107 --> 01:56:10,387 Speaker 8: usually get off to very good starts. 2342 01:56:10,827 --> 01:56:11,027 Speaker 9: Bill. 2343 01:56:11,067 --> 01:56:13,427 Speaker 2: When you look across the league, are there any rookies 2344 01:56:13,707 --> 01:56:16,227 Speaker 2: new faces that you could see moving the needle for 2345 01:56:16,347 --> 01:56:17,547 Speaker 2: their teams this season? 2346 01:56:18,867 --> 01:56:19,027 Speaker 27: Oh? 2347 01:56:19,147 --> 01:56:22,187 Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean obviously you always look towards the quarterbacks 2348 01:56:22,227 --> 01:56:24,507 Speaker 8: as the team who could make guys who could make 2349 01:56:24,547 --> 01:56:27,467 Speaker 8: Tuesday big leaps very quickly. You look at Cam war 2350 01:56:27,667 --> 01:56:30,787 Speaker 8: the first overall pick who went to Tennessee. That's a 2351 01:56:31,227 --> 01:56:34,067 Speaker 8: franchise that has been really disappointing for several years now, 2352 01:56:34,627 --> 01:56:37,027 Speaker 8: haven't been able to do much, But that's a team 2353 01:56:37,067 --> 01:56:39,707 Speaker 8: that invested a lot of their offensive offseason, didn't get 2354 01:56:39,747 --> 01:56:42,307 Speaker 8: much out of their quarterbacks last year. In New York, 2355 01:56:43,187 --> 01:56:45,307 Speaker 8: Jackson dark who's going to be the new quarterback for 2356 01:56:45,347 --> 01:56:49,187 Speaker 8: the New York Giants eventually a quarterback who is very exciting, 2357 01:56:49,267 --> 01:56:53,027 Speaker 8: really impressed during the exhibition periods during the preseason. So 2358 01:56:53,467 --> 01:56:54,667 Speaker 8: the question of when he's going to get in the 2359 01:56:54,707 --> 01:56:57,107 Speaker 8: lineup because the Giants have a very tough schedule to 2360 01:56:57,107 --> 01:56:58,987 Speaker 8: start the year. But I would expect Jackson Dart to 2361 01:56:59,067 --> 01:57:02,147 Speaker 8: be a player who really impresses. And then Ashton john 2362 01:57:02,187 --> 01:57:04,547 Speaker 8: T the really wonderful running back who went to Las 2363 01:57:04,667 --> 01:57:06,987 Speaker 8: Vegas where they hired a new coach, Pete Carroll. They 2364 01:57:06,987 --> 01:57:09,707 Speaker 8: have a new quarterback in Gino Smith. That's a team 2365 01:57:09,707 --> 01:57:13,227 Speaker 8: where if they can have an exciting year. Obviously Vegas 2366 01:57:13,307 --> 01:57:15,587 Speaker 8: is always a fun place to play, so that could 2367 01:57:15,587 --> 01:57:18,467 Speaker 8: be you know, a spot where if they get their 2368 01:57:18,507 --> 01:57:20,507 Speaker 8: running game going, he could be one of the focal 2369 01:57:20,547 --> 01:57:21,947 Speaker 8: points of the league. In his rookie season. 2370 01:57:22,307 --> 01:57:25,267 Speaker 2: You mentioned this ninety four start offensive lineman Michael Passon's 2371 01:57:25,627 --> 01:57:28,227 Speaker 2: big tried pride to the season from the Cowboys to 2372 01:57:28,307 --> 01:57:31,267 Speaker 2: greenby just throll down a bit into that for us, 2373 01:57:31,307 --> 01:57:33,547 Speaker 2: What does that do to both teams? 2374 01:57:35,267 --> 01:57:38,947 Speaker 8: Yeah, for the Cowboys sort of the you know, they 2375 01:57:39,027 --> 01:57:42,347 Speaker 8: call themselves America's team. They're the most popular team in America. 2376 01:57:42,867 --> 01:57:46,147 Speaker 8: It's almost like a recognition that they're not the team 2377 01:57:46,187 --> 01:57:48,667 Speaker 8: people want to play for anymore. You know, the Mica 2378 01:57:48,707 --> 01:57:51,787 Speaker 8: Parsons would rather have been traded to sign a contract 2379 01:57:51,827 --> 01:57:54,547 Speaker 8: for less money to play with the Cowboys and having 2380 01:57:54,587 --> 01:57:57,427 Speaker 8: an owner and Jerry Joneses now in his eighties sort 2381 01:57:57,467 --> 01:58:00,947 Speaker 8: of reacting to a player wanting to get paid a 2382 01:58:01,067 --> 01:58:03,747 Speaker 8: record salary for his position and to sort of just 2383 01:58:03,907 --> 01:58:07,187 Speaker 8: you know, throw his the restrot there is toys out 2384 01:58:07,187 --> 01:58:10,187 Speaker 8: of the prem I suppose, and I'm getting rid of 2385 01:58:10,267 --> 01:58:13,587 Speaker 8: him regardless. After the Packers, a team that is the 2386 01:58:13,627 --> 01:58:15,667 Speaker 8: youngest team in football over the last couple of years, 2387 01:58:15,987 --> 01:58:18,107 Speaker 8: having a lot of talented players, Maybe he didn't have 2388 01:58:18,267 --> 01:58:20,627 Speaker 8: that star power. Maybe he didn't have that guy who 2389 01:58:20,827 --> 01:58:24,827 Speaker 8: really gave opposing coaches fits and scared them during the week. 2390 01:58:24,867 --> 01:58:27,467 Speaker 8: Now they have that player in Michael Persons, and that's 2391 01:58:27,507 --> 01:58:29,667 Speaker 8: a team or maybe they could take a leap forward 2392 01:58:29,667 --> 01:58:31,587 Speaker 8: because they are so young and now they added a 2393 01:58:31,747 --> 01:58:33,907 Speaker 8: superstar player, one of the best players in football at 2394 01:58:33,907 --> 01:58:36,987 Speaker 8: any position, in the prime of his career. So really 2395 01:58:37,027 --> 01:58:39,427 Speaker 8: a big swing for them and the Cowboys a sort 2396 01:58:39,427 --> 01:58:40,707 Speaker 8: of surprising step backwards. 2397 01:58:41,147 --> 01:58:42,627 Speaker 2: I'm not sure if they had the chance to see 2398 01:58:42,867 --> 01:58:46,347 Speaker 2: Louis Reese zamat Welsh rugby star who gave the NFL 2399 01:58:46,387 --> 01:58:49,547 Speaker 2: a go, didn't work out for him. What makes the 2400 01:58:49,707 --> 01:58:54,587 Speaker 2: NFL so difficult to break into for athletes who terrifically 2401 01:58:54,667 --> 01:58:56,947 Speaker 2: successful in other similar sports. 2402 01:58:58,107 --> 01:58:58,827 Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean we with that. 2403 01:58:59,227 --> 01:58:59,347 Speaker 5: You know. 2404 01:58:59,627 --> 01:59:04,267 Speaker 8: Obviously an incredible rugby career through his early twentiesesn't make 2405 01:59:04,307 --> 01:59:05,867 Speaker 8: this as a player in the talent of his career. 2406 01:59:06,427 --> 01:59:08,587 Speaker 8: Is someone who is in the prime of his career 2407 01:59:08,627 --> 01:59:10,547 Speaker 8: when he decided to make the switch to the NFL. 2408 01:59:11,667 --> 01:59:14,507 Speaker 8: It really is tough just because there are some specialized 2409 01:59:14,507 --> 01:59:19,187 Speaker 8: skills that come into it. You're not just uh, you're 2410 01:59:19,187 --> 01:59:22,347 Speaker 8: not just catching, you're not just running, you're blocking, you 2411 01:59:22,467 --> 01:59:24,147 Speaker 8: have to stay healthy, you have to convince people that 2412 01:59:24,267 --> 01:59:27,467 Speaker 8: you're you know that you know the playbook. It is 2413 01:59:27,547 --> 01:59:31,387 Speaker 8: such a specialized sort of sport. And when you see 2414 01:59:31,507 --> 01:59:34,787 Speaker 8: great athletes here in America who played other sports who 2415 01:59:34,787 --> 01:59:36,347 Speaker 8: have tried to run into football, it's been a very 2416 01:59:36,387 --> 01:59:40,507 Speaker 8: difficult thing. The one exception, of course, has been Austoos 2417 01:59:40,547 --> 01:59:42,467 Speaker 8: football players who've been able to punt, But that's really 2418 01:59:42,507 --> 01:59:45,307 Speaker 8: a specialized skill which you're only doing one thing. You're 2419 01:59:45,347 --> 01:59:48,547 Speaker 8: really only just punting, and so you know, that has 2420 01:59:48,667 --> 01:59:50,507 Speaker 8: been probably a way for people to break through it, 2421 01:59:50,627 --> 01:59:53,667 Speaker 8: kicking and punting. But I just think the range of 2422 01:59:53,787 --> 01:59:56,827 Speaker 8: things you have to do and the sort of time 2423 01:59:56,907 --> 01:59:58,827 Speaker 8: frame you have to prove it and is so small 2424 01:59:58,947 --> 02:00:03,227 Speaker 8: that it really is difficult. So I certainly appreciate Resentment's 2425 02:00:03,227 --> 02:00:05,587 Speaker 8: effort into trying to do it. Maybe, you know, if 2426 02:00:05,627 --> 02:00:07,667 Speaker 8: he had been willing to stick with it for a 2427 02:00:07,707 --> 02:00:09,507 Speaker 8: few more years, maybe he would have got an opportunity. 2428 02:00:09,547 --> 02:00:12,267 Speaker 8: Obviously an incredible athlete, but it is just such a 2429 02:00:12,307 --> 02:00:13,307 Speaker 8: tough sport to break through. 2430 02:00:13,347 --> 02:00:15,707 Speaker 2: And then the college ranks. A lot of hype around 2431 02:00:16,067 --> 02:00:19,307 Speaker 2: takes this quarterback arch Manning Philly famous surname of course, 2432 02:00:19,347 --> 02:00:21,467 Speaker 2: and if you have a Payton and alife, what do 2433 02:00:21,507 --> 02:00:24,147 Speaker 2: you predict for him? Bill Way? Might he end up? 2434 02:00:26,347 --> 02:00:28,507 Speaker 8: I do think he could end up in the same 2435 02:00:28,547 --> 02:00:31,907 Speaker 8: place his grandfather played many years ago, which is New Orleans. 2436 02:00:32,027 --> 02:00:34,507 Speaker 8: The Saints really don't look very good this year, not 2437 02:00:34,627 --> 02:00:37,147 Speaker 8: much at the quarterback spot. The favorites to have the 2438 02:00:37,227 --> 02:00:39,427 Speaker 8: worst record in football, which would get them the first 2439 02:00:39,467 --> 02:00:41,987 Speaker 8: overall pick next year. In Arch Banning, I mean it 2440 02:00:42,147 --> 02:00:45,107 Speaker 8: has to be impossible, right, I mean, when your grandfather 2441 02:00:45,227 --> 02:00:49,027 Speaker 8: is an NFL quarterback, when your two uncles were Hall 2442 02:00:49,107 --> 02:00:52,667 Speaker 8: of Game caliber quarterbacks. Really, since he was a child, 2443 02:00:52,867 --> 02:00:56,467 Speaker 8: he has been destined to be the next great NFL quarterback, 2444 02:00:56,547 --> 02:00:59,827 Speaker 8: and so he's getting his opportunities. He's gone an incredible 2445 02:00:59,947 --> 02:01:01,867 Speaker 8: not just Typenning into the year. Didn't get off to 2446 02:01:01,947 --> 02:01:03,867 Speaker 8: a great start. They lost to Ohio State a very 2447 02:01:03,907 --> 02:01:07,307 Speaker 8: good defense in the opening to the football season here, 2448 02:01:07,427 --> 02:01:11,267 Speaker 8: but certainly feels like if he shows what everyone expects, 2449 02:01:11,587 --> 02:01:13,227 Speaker 8: he'll end up being in the first overall pick and 2450 02:01:13,507 --> 02:01:16,227 Speaker 8: grand up sort of following in his grandfather's footsteps and 2451 02:01:16,307 --> 02:01:18,347 Speaker 8: rebuilding a team in New Orleans. 2452 02:01:18,827 --> 02:01:22,467 Speaker 2: To finish, Bill my Son is a Minnesota Vikings saying, 2453 02:01:22,747 --> 02:01:25,827 Speaker 2: can you offer him any strait of optimism for the season. 2454 02:01:27,107 --> 02:01:28,987 Speaker 8: Oh yeah, I mean now the team that won fourteen 2455 02:01:29,027 --> 02:01:32,547 Speaker 8: games last year, when fourteen wins three losses, A very 2456 02:01:32,627 --> 02:01:36,187 Speaker 8: imposing defense, very fun defense that is very aggressive. They 2457 02:01:36,267 --> 02:01:38,467 Speaker 8: really love to rush the quarterback.
