1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:04,440
Speaker 1: Jason pine Sports Talk Coasters with me now Piney, Hello, Heather,

2
00:00:04,519 --> 00:00:07,080
Speaker 1: are you freaking out about the puppy?

3
00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:13,200
Speaker 2: No, No, I wish we'd won one of the two tests.

4
00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:15,720
Speaker 2: I think we all wish we'd probably won both of them.

5
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:18,919
Speaker 2: But I think we need to accept that South Africa,

6
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:21,400
Speaker 2: for starters, are a very good rugby team. We need

7
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:23,880
Speaker 2: to accept that front and center. They're world number one

8
00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:27,120
Speaker 2: for a reason, and I was entirely impressed with the

9
00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:29,639
Speaker 2: way they played for large parts of both Test matches.

10
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 2: I think there are some questions for the All Blacks

11
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:35,000
Speaker 2: to answer internally and probably show us against Australia in

12
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:37,919
Speaker 2: the next two Test matches that they've learned some lessons.

13
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:40,199
Speaker 2: The thing that gets thrown out a lot, and I've

14
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:42,280
Speaker 2: seen I'm sure you've seen it. It's this inability to

15
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:45,440
Speaker 2: score points in the last twenty minutes. It's four Test

16
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 2: matches now in the Rugby Championship where the All Blacks

17
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:51,000
Speaker 2: haven't got a point, a single point in the final

18
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:53,680
Speaker 2: quarter of any of those four matches. Used to be

19
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:55,680
Speaker 2: our strength here to remember, we used to bring people

20
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 2: off the bench and run over the top of teams.

21
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:00,920
Speaker 2: Hasn't happened into the kicking.

22
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 1: That was towards the end.

23
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 2: That was ridiculous.

24
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 1: I mean a year eleven boy could have kicked better

25
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:06,640
Speaker 1: than that.

26
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 2: Well, well, Damien McKenzie should have kicked that, should have

27
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 2: kicked the penalty which would have put us in front.

28
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 2: And you know, yearly, you really can't leave points out

29
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:19,760
Speaker 2: there in such tight test matches. These were you know,

30
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 2: these weren't thrashings at all. Certainly it wasn't like the

31
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:25,479
Speaker 2: Ardgents Indians being the Wallabies, but the South Africans won

32
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:28,399
Speaker 2: the big moments and and test matches often swing on

33
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:31,760
Speaker 2: small on Sorry they won the small moments if I

34
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,759
Speaker 2: can put it that way, but they become significant moments

35
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:38,080
Speaker 2: if you can achieve them. And Damien McKenzie not not

36
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:40,720
Speaker 2: not kicking all of his goals became significant in a

37
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 2: test when he lost by what six points?

38
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:43,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a very good point.

39
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:44,760
Speaker 2: I mean he does really need to.

40
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 1: But I was also talking about the South African kicker

41
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:48,080
Speaker 1: they brought in at the enchees. I mean one of

42
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 1: those ones went way. It made me feel better, do

43
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 1: you know what I mean about my skills?

44
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 2: Yes? Yeah, yeah, that one was probably more of a

45
00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 2: year eleven ability kick yes, it.

46
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 1: Was a shocker. Okay, So this cricket match has been

47
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 1: delayed because the rain.

48
00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 2: Is it? Yeah, yeah, soggy outfield and all that toss

49
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 2: not on time. This is Afghanistan against New Zealand being

50
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 2: played in India. Only test between these two. Then New

51
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,760
Speaker 2: Zealand play two against Sri Lanka and three against India.

52
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 2: So it's the start of a six Test kind of

53
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:19,640
Speaker 2: stretch for the black Caps. Yeah, hopefully they'll get some

54
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 2: play underway. Feels a bit funny watching Test cricket in September,

55
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 2: but I mean, I'm a red ball fan. I'm going

56
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 2: to be locked and you locked in to this, Heather.

57
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,080
Speaker 1: I had producer ants come in here and turn it

58
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:31,119
Speaker 1: on for me, and I'm looking at it right now,

59
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 1: and I tell you what, that pitch looks dry. It

60
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:34,679
Speaker 1: looks like it looks like it could do with a

61
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:35,160
Speaker 1: bit of rain.

62
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:39,799
Speaker 2: Actually, yeah, it's funny. That's like the asient, the subcontinent,

63
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,399
Speaker 2: the weather, the weather patterns can be you know, quite

64
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,840
Speaker 2: changeable quite quickly, can't they. So it might be that

65
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:46,919
Speaker 2: if it stops raining, it drives pretty quickly. Let's hope

66
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 2: we get some Test cricket because it's always better to

67
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 2: have that than not have it. Heather, I reckon.

68
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,280
