Has she got more to give? Can 60 00:03:37,507 --> 00:03:40,427 Speaker 4: she climb on the decie? The decies in third looks 61 00:03:40,467 --> 00:03:43,587 Speaker 4: to be slowing. It's Tatmas's race. Has fear Weather got 62 00:03:43,627 --> 00:03:47,427 Speaker 4: a kick? Can she find enough to get her bronze medal? 63 00:03:47,627 --> 00:03:52,547 Speaker 4: Tatmos coming for home? It's her gold medal, Arian Titmos. 64 00:03:52,747 --> 00:03:57,267 Speaker 4: When's gold and it's fourth for Erica Fairweather. 65 00:03:57,467 --> 00:04:00,587 Speaker 3: Yeah, heartbreak for the Dunedian's swimmer this morning fourth ari 66 00:04:00,747 --> 00:04:04,507 Speaker 3: On Tiitmas of Australia winning gold ahead of Canada's Summer Macintosh. 67 00:04:04,707 --> 00:04:07,427 Speaker 3: Caddie La Deeckie of the United States was in third, 68 00:04:07,427 --> 00:04:10,227 Speaker 3: but Erica fair Our fair Weather was closing the gap 69 00:04:10,627 --> 00:04:13,627 Speaker 3: down the final fifteen meters and just ran out of 70 00:04:13,627 --> 00:04:16,947 Speaker 3: Paul unfortunately. Shortly after the race finish, I spoke with 71 00:04:17,027 --> 00:04:20,347 Speaker 3: Olympic Lead for Swimming in New Zealand, Gary Francis, and 72 00:04:20,387 --> 00:04:22,787 Speaker 3: I suggested that very thing to Gary. If there'd been 73 00:04:22,787 --> 00:04:26,307 Speaker 3: another twenty meters, Erica probably would have won the bronze medal. 74 00:04:26,987 --> 00:04:30,307 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think you've You're exactly right, Jason. I think 75 00:04:30,307 --> 00:04:32,947 Speaker 5: that she just run out of run, out of meters 76 00:04:32,947 --> 00:04:33,667 Speaker 5: at the end. There. 77 00:04:35,027 --> 00:04:37,107 Speaker 6: It was a very nervous final, wasn't it. You know, 78 00:04:37,627 --> 00:04:41,547 Speaker 6: the four fastest girls pretty much ever, and none of 79 00:04:41,547 --> 00:04:43,347 Speaker 6: them really swum anywhere near their best. 80 00:04:43,387 --> 00:04:44,027 Speaker 5: You could just. 81 00:04:44,427 --> 00:04:49,387 Speaker 6: See how tense it was. And yeah, I think that 82 00:04:49,427 --> 00:04:52,147 Speaker 6: she she just didn't get close enough in the middle 83 00:04:52,147 --> 00:04:56,747 Speaker 6: part of the race. Always knew that get to the 84 00:04:56,867 --> 00:05:00,067 Speaker 6: last fifty seventy five meters. And regardless of the fact 85 00:05:00,067 --> 00:05:02,467 Speaker 6: that all the three other girls actually have a faster 86 00:05:02,627 --> 00:05:05,347 Speaker 6: two hundred and one hundred time on paper than Erica, 87 00:05:05,387 --> 00:05:08,027 Speaker 6: we know, we know the last the last part of 88 00:05:08,067 --> 00:05:10,427 Speaker 6: the race. She's very strong and she came through again, 89 00:05:10,547 --> 00:05:13,267 Speaker 6: but yeah, just a little bit too much for her 90 00:05:13,347 --> 00:05:14,067 Speaker 6: to do this time. 91 00:05:14,387 --> 00:05:17,267 Speaker 3: How did you assist the way she swum in the 92 00:05:17,307 --> 00:05:19,827 Speaker 3: heat this morning? She got their ahead of Summermicantosh, I 93 00:05:19,867 --> 00:05:22,707 Speaker 3: know you always hold something back in a heat. How 94 00:05:22,707 --> 00:05:24,187 Speaker 3: did you assist her heat? 95 00:05:25,067 --> 00:05:29,947 Speaker 6: Well, because the heat was that wasn't the last heat, 96 00:05:30,027 --> 00:05:32,027 Speaker 6: that it was the second, it was the first of 97 00:05:32,067 --> 00:05:34,667 Speaker 6: the two seeded heats. You can't afford to be too 98 00:05:34,667 --> 00:05:40,467 Speaker 6: complacent because you know four oh three made the final, 99 00:05:40,507 --> 00:05:43,507 Speaker 6: and you know they were four four o two's. I 100 00:05:43,507 --> 00:05:45,547 Speaker 6: think the most important thing is to try to touch 101 00:05:45,587 --> 00:05:49,147 Speaker 6: the wall first, and to touch the wall first with 102 00:05:49,507 --> 00:05:51,707 Speaker 6: using the least amount of energy, and I think she 103 00:05:51,747 --> 00:05:54,307 Speaker 6: did that really well. She's found that beautifully this morning 104 00:05:54,347 --> 00:05:58,187 Speaker 6: and she certainly, you know, was she She felt really 105 00:05:58,187 --> 00:06:02,387 Speaker 6: good and she had plenty left, so we're really I mean, 106 00:06:02,427 --> 00:06:05,307 Speaker 6: she she did a really good job this morning and 107 00:06:05,987 --> 00:06:08,707 Speaker 6: she was ready to go tonight, and it just wasn't 108 00:06:08,787 --> 00:06:09,347 Speaker 6: quite enough. 109 00:06:09,587 --> 00:06:12,227 Speaker 3: As you say, the star power though in those middle lanes, 110 00:06:12,507 --> 00:06:15,547 Speaker 3: four of the fastest women ever over four hundred meters, 111 00:06:15,587 --> 00:06:17,987 Speaker 3: four of five who have gone under four minutes for 112 00:06:18,027 --> 00:06:20,387 Speaker 3: this distance. But as you say, it's it's funny what 113 00:06:21,147 --> 00:06:24,067 Speaker 3: occasion can do to people, because as you pointed out, 114 00:06:24,067 --> 00:06:26,827 Speaker 3: it wasn't really the perfect race from any of them, 115 00:06:27,147 --> 00:06:27,467 Speaker 3: was it. 116 00:06:28,027 --> 00:06:30,947 Speaker 6: No, No, not at all. I think the race was 117 00:06:30,947 --> 00:06:34,107 Speaker 6: predictable in that we always know how Tipmas is going 118 00:06:34,147 --> 00:06:36,267 Speaker 6: to swim, she's going to gun it, and she's going 119 00:06:36,307 --> 00:06:38,827 Speaker 6: to try and destroy everybody in the first two hundred. 120 00:06:40,307 --> 00:06:44,187 Speaker 6: We weren't too sure how Macintosh would swim. She's you know, 121 00:06:44,307 --> 00:06:47,907 Speaker 6: she's she's done it in different ways in the past, 122 00:06:48,187 --> 00:06:50,307 Speaker 6: and we know that Katie Ldecki will also swim the 123 00:06:50,307 --> 00:06:53,107 Speaker 6: middle and the end part of the race strong. And 124 00:06:54,187 --> 00:06:56,147 Speaker 6: you know, Erica's job was just to be right in 125 00:06:56,187 --> 00:07:00,267 Speaker 6: there and not be in with a chance to swim 126 00:07:00,307 --> 00:07:02,347 Speaker 6: people down at the end, and she just wasn't quite 127 00:07:02,347 --> 00:07:07,387 Speaker 6: close enough. But it was really interesting to see that 128 00:07:07,467 --> 00:07:12,587 Speaker 6: the times were actually quite slow and four minutes we've 129 00:07:12,627 --> 00:07:16,587 Speaker 6: got to gota middle and you know, it's just that 130 00:07:16,787 --> 00:07:20,107 Speaker 6: that's sport at this level. It's not really no one 131 00:07:20,147 --> 00:07:22,307 Speaker 6: cares if you break the world record. It's about getting 132 00:07:22,307 --> 00:07:26,587 Speaker 6: the medal, isn't it. And in the end, tipmas And 133 00:07:25,947 --> 00:07:30,507 Speaker 6: and Macintosh were able to do that, and and Decky 134 00:07:30,587 --> 00:07:32,107 Speaker 6: was able to hold off Erica at the end. 135 00:07:32,187 --> 00:07:34,387 Speaker 3: So always lessons learned. 136 00:07:34,387 --> 00:07:37,107 Speaker 5: But yeah, it was it was. It was a tough race. 137 00:07:37,307 --> 00:07:40,347 Speaker 3: It must be hard to process for Erica as well. 138 00:07:40,387 --> 00:07:43,587 Speaker 3: You know, obviously these pinnacle events are what you know, 139 00:07:43,707 --> 00:07:47,467 Speaker 3: our top athletes work their way towards. And we've arrived 140 00:07:47,467 --> 00:07:49,907 Speaker 3: here and she she hasn't quite been able to achieve 141 00:07:49,947 --> 00:07:52,827 Speaker 3: the goal that she set for herself. How do you 142 00:07:52,867 --> 00:07:56,667 Speaker 3: assess her ability to process it? Obviously to be disappointed, 143 00:07:56,667 --> 00:07:59,587 Speaker 3: but she's still got other events to swim, hasn't. 144 00:07:59,307 --> 00:08:03,627 Speaker 6: She Well, I'll you know, I watched at the end 145 00:08:03,667 --> 00:08:05,187 Speaker 6: of the the end of the race as she walked 146 00:08:05,187 --> 00:08:07,987 Speaker 6: back past myself and her coach Lars. 147 00:08:08,067 --> 00:08:09,347 Speaker 5: And she was in tears. 148 00:08:09,347 --> 00:08:12,147 Speaker 6: Obviously she's very, very upset, but at the same time 149 00:08:12,587 --> 00:08:16,267 Speaker 6: she her tears were tears of you know, a mixture 150 00:08:16,307 --> 00:08:21,107 Speaker 6: of this woman frustration. She's gone back to our team area, 151 00:08:21,667 --> 00:08:26,107 Speaker 6: she's stripped into her dogs to swim down, and she's 152 00:08:26,307 --> 00:08:30,027 Speaker 6: already now starting to process. She'll think about the swim. 153 00:08:30,547 --> 00:08:32,627 Speaker 6: She wants to get back into pool tomorrow and try 154 00:08:32,667 --> 00:08:36,187 Speaker 6: and do a better job in the two hundred. So yeah, 155 00:08:36,347 --> 00:08:40,667 Speaker 6: there'll be time to reflect on this. But already now 156 00:08:40,707 --> 00:08:43,467 Speaker 6: it's right, Okay, that one didn't that one didn't work. 157 00:08:43,507 --> 00:08:44,387 Speaker 7: I've got to get on with it. 158 00:08:44,387 --> 00:08:46,907 Speaker 6: I've got another race tomorrow. And she's really you know, 159 00:08:46,947 --> 00:08:49,787 Speaker 6: this is a sign of her maturity. She's already starting 160 00:08:49,867 --> 00:08:52,667 Speaker 6: to think about tomorrow. She can't dwell on this for 161 00:08:52,667 --> 00:08:55,267 Speaker 6: too long, just in the same way that had she 162 00:08:55,347 --> 00:08:58,147 Speaker 6: got the medal, we couldn't over celebrate it. Go to 163 00:08:58,187 --> 00:09:02,467 Speaker 6: get back in and get on with it. So yeah, 164 00:09:02,547 --> 00:09:06,347 Speaker 6: I mean, it's a tough one to take, but it's 165 00:09:07,587 --> 00:09:10,307 Speaker 6: I think the fact that the rest of this. You know, 166 00:09:10,347 --> 00:09:13,467 Speaker 6: if they'd all swim around three fifty five, maybe the 167 00:09:13,507 --> 00:09:15,987 Speaker 6: world record had gone and Erica had gone four oh one. 168 00:09:16,307 --> 00:09:18,227 Speaker 6: I think she would have been like, well, what's going on? 169 00:09:18,267 --> 00:09:20,587 Speaker 6: You know, why did I swim so badly? But I 170 00:09:20,627 --> 00:09:22,667 Speaker 6: think that in the context of the race, we can 171 00:09:22,707 --> 00:09:24,547 Speaker 6: see that it was there must have been a hell 172 00:09:24,547 --> 00:09:26,627 Speaker 6: of a lot of tension in the core room beforehanded, 173 00:09:26,867 --> 00:09:28,907 Speaker 6: and again she went down to the core room, she 174 00:09:28,947 --> 00:09:30,667 Speaker 6: was in you know, she was in the right frame 175 00:09:30,707 --> 00:09:32,827 Speaker 6: of mind. But it just shows you at this level 176 00:09:33,107 --> 00:09:35,147 Speaker 6: for all of those swimmers, how it affected them. 177 00:09:35,507 --> 00:09:38,227 Speaker 3: Absolutely right. Well, she's back in action tonight, as you say, 178 00:09:38,867 --> 00:09:41,427 Speaker 3: that's tonight for us, overnight for you, back in the poll, 179 00:09:41,987 --> 00:09:45,907 Speaker 3: as is Lewis Clearbird in one of his in fact 180 00:09:45,947 --> 00:09:49,827 Speaker 3: has favored events. Look, I don't want to jinx anything here, Gary, 181 00:09:49,867 --> 00:09:52,827 Speaker 3: but what feeling do you get from from Lewis at 182 00:09:52,827 --> 00:09:53,187 Speaker 3: the moment? 183 00:09:54,027 --> 00:09:56,187 Speaker 6: Well, I think one of the things that Lewis was 184 00:09:56,507 --> 00:10:00,067 Speaker 6: in this morning and he's had it, He's been observing 185 00:10:00,187 --> 00:10:01,067 Speaker 6: what's been going on. 186 00:10:01,307 --> 00:10:02,707 Speaker 5: He looked at the heats this morning. 187 00:10:03,547 --> 00:10:06,747 Speaker 6: Again, the heats were quite nervous all around in all 188 00:10:06,747 --> 00:10:11,827 Speaker 6: of the events this morning. You know, he's he's kind 189 00:10:11,827 --> 00:10:15,027 Speaker 6: of a I mean this in the nicest way. Lewis 190 00:10:15,067 --> 00:10:18,267 Speaker 6: is a kind of a predator. He's a real racer 191 00:10:18,747 --> 00:10:21,427 Speaker 6: and he will you know, he's pretty good at detecting 192 00:10:21,467 --> 00:10:25,267 Speaker 6: any kind of tension and weakness, So if he can 193 00:10:25,347 --> 00:10:28,667 Speaker 6: latch onto that and not get affected himself, I think 194 00:10:28,707 --> 00:10:32,267 Speaker 6: he's going to go pretty good tomorrow. You know, he's 195 00:10:32,907 --> 00:10:38,427 Speaker 6: he's pretty experienced. He does race well under pressure. But 196 00:10:38,747 --> 00:10:41,947 Speaker 6: I guess there's pressure, and then there's the Olympics, isn't there. 197 00:10:42,587 --> 00:10:43,867 Speaker 6: So we will see tomorrow. 198 00:10:44,027 --> 00:10:44,187 Speaker 8: You know. 199 00:10:44,387 --> 00:10:46,707 Speaker 6: I don't want to jinx him, and I don't want 200 00:10:46,707 --> 00:10:49,387 Speaker 6: to put any extra kind of expectation on him, but 201 00:10:50,267 --> 00:10:53,747 Speaker 6: hate his preparation has gone really well, as has all 202 00:10:53,787 --> 00:10:58,387 Speaker 6: of the swimmers, and this I think we may not 203 00:10:58,427 --> 00:11:01,987 Speaker 6: have seen the fastest times so far. Tonight we saw 204 00:11:02,147 --> 00:11:05,307 Speaker 6: the men's four hundred and three promise and still come 205 00:11:05,387 --> 00:11:08,667 Speaker 6: up short of a world record. But the overall, the 206 00:11:08,787 --> 00:11:12,787 Speaker 6: overall feeling of the standard here and what we're seeing 207 00:11:12,827 --> 00:11:15,747 Speaker 6: in the warm up pool and in the training areas, 208 00:11:17,387 --> 00:11:21,107 Speaker 6: the sport has moved to an different level, and I 209 00:11:21,147 --> 00:11:24,547 Speaker 6: think we're starting to see the Olympics in the pool 210 00:11:24,627 --> 00:11:28,227 Speaker 6: becoming similar to the Olympics on the track. You've got 211 00:11:28,267 --> 00:11:31,387 Speaker 6: to be strategic, you know. It's about it's about winning 212 00:11:31,427 --> 00:11:34,987 Speaker 6: the medal the time. It's great if you get it, 213 00:11:35,027 --> 00:11:38,027 Speaker 6: but it's about winning the medal. So we shall see 214 00:11:38,027 --> 00:11:38,827 Speaker 6: how we go tomorrow. 215 00:11:38,947 --> 00:11:41,027 Speaker 3: Indeed, can you tell us a bit about that the complex, 216 00:11:41,067 --> 00:11:44,067 Speaker 3: the aquatic scener there, Garrett, looks amazing on television. It's 217 00:11:44,427 --> 00:11:46,827 Speaker 3: quite new, isn't it. 218 00:11:46,907 --> 00:11:52,107 Speaker 6: Well, it's it's actually the Racing ninety two's rugby stadium. Yes, 219 00:11:52,947 --> 00:11:56,747 Speaker 6: it's an amazing, an amazing stadium. It's forty thousand seats 220 00:11:56,867 --> 00:12:01,707 Speaker 6: if it was a rugby stadium. The pool is actually 221 00:12:01,987 --> 00:12:04,947 Speaker 6: for the people at home to picture it. The poor 222 00:12:05,067 --> 00:12:08,627 Speaker 6: is actually set up across it would be across the 223 00:12:08,627 --> 00:12:13,547 Speaker 6: twenty two, so it's in the tri zone and up 224 00:12:13,547 --> 00:12:16,227 Speaker 6: to the twenty two across the stadium, so it gives 225 00:12:16,227 --> 00:12:18,387 Speaker 6: you an idea of the size of the stadium. And 226 00:12:18,427 --> 00:12:22,267 Speaker 6: then the spectators are wrapping around what would be behind 227 00:12:22,307 --> 00:12:27,787 Speaker 6: the goalposts, and then the press and media area is 228 00:12:27,827 --> 00:12:32,227 Speaker 6: pretty much from I guess from somewhere between the twenty 229 00:12:32,227 --> 00:12:34,827 Speaker 6: two and the ten yard line and or the ten 230 00:12:34,867 --> 00:12:38,547 Speaker 6: meter line, and then the halfway line and then the 231 00:12:38,627 --> 00:12:41,267 Speaker 6: other side of that is the warm up area and 232 00:12:41,507 --> 00:12:46,667 Speaker 6: the warm up poul stretches at right angles, so the 233 00:12:46,667 --> 00:12:48,747 Speaker 6: warm up pool pretty much goes to the far end 234 00:12:48,747 --> 00:12:50,907 Speaker 6: of the rugby field and then the rest of the 235 00:12:50,947 --> 00:12:54,867 Speaker 6: area is for the team preparations. It's an unbelievable stadium, 236 00:12:54,867 --> 00:12:58,267 Speaker 6: it really is. And the noise in here tonight. I 237 00:12:58,307 --> 00:13:02,507 Speaker 6: mean I've been in Rio, which was pretty bloody noisy. 238 00:13:04,027 --> 00:13:05,827 Speaker 5: When the you know, the crowd was. 239 00:13:05,787 --> 00:13:09,387 Speaker 6: Stamping on the on the ground and the stadium was 240 00:13:09,387 --> 00:13:12,467 Speaker 6: actually moving, but that tonight was something else. 241 00:13:12,507 --> 00:13:12,787 Speaker 5: Again. 242 00:13:12,827 --> 00:13:14,747 Speaker 7: It was really pretty special, amazing. 243 00:13:14,867 --> 00:13:15,107 Speaker 9: Gary. 244 00:13:15,147 --> 00:13:16,907 Speaker 3: Thank you so much for joining us painting a picture 245 00:13:16,947 --> 00:13:19,427 Speaker 3: for us. Much more to come in terms of events 246 00:13:19,427 --> 00:13:22,827 Speaker 3: for our New Zealand swimmers to compete in Powis. Look 247 00:13:22,827 --> 00:13:25,427 Speaker 3: forward to staying in touch and again thank you for 248 00:13:25,467 --> 00:13:26,387 Speaker 3: taking the time for a chat. 249 00:13:27,667 --> 00:13:28,427 Speaker 7: Always a pleasure. 250 00:13:28,427 --> 00:13:30,907 Speaker 3: Thanks very much, Jason, No, thank you, no, thank you Gary. 251 00:13:30,947 --> 00:13:35,227 Speaker 3: Gary Francis there. He is the Olympic lead for swimming 252 00:13:35,467 --> 00:13:38,587 Speaker 3: New Zealand twelve twenty. If you watched that this morning, 253 00:13:38,627 --> 00:13:41,787 Speaker 3: I just felt gutted for her. I kind of watched 254 00:13:41,827 --> 00:13:43,867 Speaker 3: Derek Affair weather over the last three or four years 255 00:13:43,867 --> 00:13:46,227 Speaker 3: since She made the Olympic final in Tokyo as a 256 00:13:46,307 --> 00:13:49,427 Speaker 3: seventeen year old. Remember she was still at school at 257 00:13:49,467 --> 00:13:53,467 Speaker 3: the last Olympics. Get how young these athletes are. And 258 00:13:53,667 --> 00:13:58,067 Speaker 3: over the last three years she's gradually improved and become 259 00:13:58,427 --> 00:14:01,187 Speaker 3: someone who I guess we started to pin our hopes 260 00:14:01,227 --> 00:14:04,347 Speaker 3: on and if not, you know, if not that, then 261 00:14:04,387 --> 00:14:07,467 Speaker 3: certainly we thought that she may be a chance, had 262 00:14:07,507 --> 00:14:09,707 Speaker 3: to be a chance of a medal. You look at 263 00:14:09,707 --> 00:14:15,187 Speaker 3: that stacked four hundred meter freestyle field and it's you know, 264 00:14:16,827 --> 00:14:19,467 Speaker 3: often you know, you get a generational swimmer right to 265 00:14:19,547 --> 00:14:22,907 Speaker 3: Michael Phelps, and you say, why how am I going 266 00:14:22,987 --> 00:14:25,667 Speaker 3: to beat him? But in that field there are there 267 00:14:25,667 --> 00:14:30,867 Speaker 3: are three absolutely generational swimmers that eric A fair Weather 268 00:14:30,907 --> 00:14:34,307 Speaker 3: came up against, and it is no disgrace to be 269 00:14:34,787 --> 00:14:40,467 Speaker 3: fourth behind those three well DECKI Titmas Macintosh, three absolutely 270 00:14:40,507 --> 00:14:45,107 Speaker 3: outstanding swimmers, as is eric A Fairweather. Now she's got 271 00:14:45,107 --> 00:14:48,387 Speaker 3: to get back in the pool tonight, and I wonder 272 00:14:48,427 --> 00:14:50,867 Speaker 3: whether that's you know, something that maybe they often say, 273 00:14:50,907 --> 00:14:52,307 Speaker 3: you know that you want to get back on the 274 00:14:52,307 --> 00:14:54,307 Speaker 3: horse after a bad game. A team wants to get 275 00:14:54,347 --> 00:14:56,467 Speaker 3: back out there. I'm not I don't know whether that's 276 00:14:56,467 --> 00:15:00,027 Speaker 3: true or not for swimmers, Whether there'll be this lingering 277 00:15:00,067 --> 00:15:03,347 Speaker 3: disappointment for Erica. I mean, you could tell afterwards, and 278 00:15:03,387 --> 00:15:05,867 Speaker 3: we'll play some wadeo in a moment, just how guarded 279 00:15:05,947 --> 00:15:08,187 Speaker 3: she was. What wouldn't she be? You know? I was 280 00:15:08,347 --> 00:15:12,427 Speaker 3: actually not pleased necessary, but it was nice to see 281 00:15:12,427 --> 00:15:15,267 Speaker 3: some emotion. And she's always just been, as I say, 282 00:15:15,347 --> 00:15:19,947 Speaker 3: so laid back, so authentic, so real. Still only twenty, 283 00:15:20,867 --> 00:15:24,147 Speaker 3: I mean, she'll be younger than I think, certainly younger 284 00:15:24,187 --> 00:15:28,667 Speaker 3: than Ladeci and Titmas at the next Olympic Games in 285 00:15:28,747 --> 00:15:31,587 Speaker 3: terms of how old they are now. So another four 286 00:15:31,667 --> 00:15:34,547 Speaker 3: years it must seem hard though, right, must have to 287 00:15:34,587 --> 00:15:36,947 Speaker 3: look ahead, and it must be like losing a Rugby 288 00:15:36,987 --> 00:15:40,427 Speaker 3: World Cup, that old phrase the George Gregan. Four more 289 00:15:40,507 --> 00:15:42,947 Speaker 3: years it must seem like an awfully long way away 290 00:15:43,027 --> 00:15:46,667 Speaker 3: to get the chance to achieve that dream of an 291 00:15:46,667 --> 00:15:50,267 Speaker 3: Olympic medal. Having said that, she's in another couple of 292 00:15:50,307 --> 00:15:52,507 Speaker 3: events Erica fair Weather. She swims in the heats of 293 00:15:52,547 --> 00:15:55,987 Speaker 3: the two hundred freestyle tonight. She's also in the eight 294 00:15:56,107 --> 00:15:59,587 Speaker 3: hundred meter freestyle and in the four x two hundred 295 00:15:59,667 --> 00:16:04,907 Speaker 3: meter freestyle relay. Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty. If 296 00:16:04,947 --> 00:16:07,187 Speaker 3: you watched that race this morning or anything that occurred 297 00:16:07,227 --> 00:16:09,427 Speaker 3: to you from the Olympics overnight, there was there was 298 00:16:09,427 --> 00:16:10,867 Speaker 3: a I don't know, it was a funny old night. 299 00:16:10,907 --> 00:16:12,387 Speaker 3: Andy and I were sitting here saying, okay, what are 300 00:16:12,387 --> 00:16:14,107 Speaker 3: we to talk about in the show today? And obviously 301 00:16:14,627 --> 00:16:17,427 Speaker 3: Erica was was probably the thing that we both agreed on. 302 00:16:17,467 --> 00:16:19,947 Speaker 3: But then you look at what happened overnight, and well, 303 00:16:19,987 --> 00:16:22,747 Speaker 3: there were no medals, so there's nothing, you know, nothing 304 00:16:22,787 --> 00:16:25,067 Speaker 3: to hang a hat on there, and you know, there 305 00:16:25,067 --> 00:16:27,707 Speaker 3: were bits and pieces here and there. It's not as 306 00:16:27,827 --> 00:16:32,667 Speaker 3: a false start. I'm sure there'll be much more to come. 307 00:16:33,267 --> 00:16:36,867 Speaker 3: The other person in the pool tonight is Lewis Clarebird, 308 00:16:36,947 --> 00:16:39,707 Speaker 3: and I mentioned that to Gary Francis just then in 309 00:16:39,827 --> 00:16:43,547 Speaker 3: the heats tonight of the four hundred meters individual medley, 310 00:16:44,147 --> 00:16:46,947 Speaker 3: that is his favorite event. The final of that is 311 00:16:46,947 --> 00:16:51,827 Speaker 3: tomorrow morning. It's six thirty and unlike Erica Fairweather, it's 312 00:16:51,867 --> 00:16:56,427 Speaker 3: not like a stacked field of you know, it's not 313 00:16:56,507 --> 00:17:01,587 Speaker 3: three or four you know, amazing medley swimmers. There's one, 314 00:17:02,587 --> 00:17:06,427 Speaker 3: the local Hope Marchal, the Frenchman, and he seems to 315 00:17:06,467 --> 00:17:08,307 Speaker 3: be ahead of just about everybody, But then there's a 316 00:17:08,347 --> 00:17:13,387 Speaker 3: bunch of swimmers, a group of swimmers who could all 317 00:17:13,867 --> 00:17:17,347 Speaker 3: on their night get on that podium. So it was 318 00:17:17,387 --> 00:17:19,387 Speaker 3: clear tonight in the heats of the four hundred meter 319 00:17:19,467 --> 00:17:23,227 Speaker 3: individual medley and the final hopefully tomorrow morning.

That's a stacked field 322 00:17:29,187 --> 00:17:31,427 Speaker 3: and not her specialty, but who knows. You might get 323 00:17:31,427 --> 00:17:33,747 Speaker 3: out there and be driven on by what happened this morning. 324 00:17:34,387 --> 00:17:37,747 Speaker 3: The semis of that event are tomorrow morning, oh, eight 325 00:17:37,827 --> 00:17:42,147 Speaker 3: hundred and eighty ten eighty nine two nine two. If 326 00:17:42,147 --> 00:17:43,907 Speaker 3: you would prefer to center text. Here is eric a 327 00:17:43,987 --> 00:17:46,627 Speaker 3: fair Weather in the mix soon afterwards, chatting to our 328 00:17:46,627 --> 00:17:47,667 Speaker 3: friends from sky. 329 00:17:47,867 --> 00:17:50,747 Speaker 2: Credible to be amongst hatfielders for how are you feeling 330 00:17:50,787 --> 00:17:53,227 Speaker 2: right now?

But the camera work and the commentators always 511 00:26:26,747 --> 00:26:28,907 Speaker 18: number one and two, that's all they look at. Underwater 512 00:26:28,947 --> 00:26:31,507 Speaker 18: shots always number one and two. Both shots always number 513 00:26:31,507 --> 00:26:33,227 Speaker 18: one and two. Head on shots number one and two. 514 00:26:33,947 --> 00:26:35,827 Speaker 18: If I wasn't my daughter or son was in a 515 00:26:35,907 --> 00:26:38,627 Speaker 18: race there, or your sister or whatever, you'd want to 516 00:26:38,747 --> 00:26:41,067 Speaker 18: see you you want to see the hometown person doing right, 517 00:26:41,147 --> 00:26:44,187 Speaker 18: they could, you know, concentrate on them, if you know 518 00:26:44,227 --> 00:26:44,587 Speaker 18: what I mean. 519 00:26:44,707 --> 00:26:44,867 Speaker 8: I do. 520 00:26:44,987 --> 00:26:46,987 Speaker 3: Yeah, I do. Michael hard though, isn't it. You're right? 521 00:26:47,067 --> 00:26:48,827 Speaker 3: They do do the white shot, and they do that 522 00:26:48,907 --> 00:26:50,547 Speaker 3: aerial shot and you see all eight lanes and it 523 00:26:50,627 --> 00:26:52,667 Speaker 3: gives you a really good idea of everybody is in 524 00:26:52,787 --> 00:26:54,907 Speaker 3: comparison to one another year. But I guess, I guess 525 00:26:54,987 --> 00:26:56,987 Speaker 3: that's the nature of us, especially in a race like 526 00:26:56,987 --> 00:26:59,187 Speaker 3: the four hundred, where they tend to spread out of it. 527 00:26:59,507 --> 00:27:01,267 Speaker 3: So for the last one hundred, one hundred and fifty minutes, 528 00:27:01,307 --> 00:27:03,307 Speaker 3: You're right, it is often just those at the head 529 00:27:03,347 --> 00:27:04,627 Speaker 3: of the field. But I guess that's natural. 530 00:27:05,427 --> 00:27:05,627 Speaker 8: Yeah. 531 00:27:05,667 --> 00:27:08,627 Speaker 18: But the thing is that in some of the long races, 532 00:27:08,707 --> 00:27:13,147 Speaker 18: like the rowing this morning at two hundred and two kilometers, 533 00:27:13,587 --> 00:27:16,387 Speaker 18: they've got plenty of time. But if they had a 534 00:27:16,507 --> 00:27:19,987 Speaker 18: close up of say somebody from Bournmouth, you know, they're 535 00:27:20,187 --> 00:27:22,347 Speaker 18: not likely to get somewhere. You know, I'm not being awful, 536 00:27:22,387 --> 00:27:26,147 Speaker 18: but the locals will be crowding around the TV's at 537 00:27:26,187 --> 00:27:29,427 Speaker 18: home or the wireless or something and trying to watch 538 00:27:29,467 --> 00:27:32,347 Speaker 18: and see our hometown girl, little boy. But they're not there. 539 00:27:32,347 --> 00:27:35,587 Speaker 18: They're not even shown, they're not featured over How long 540 00:27:35,627 --> 00:27:37,067 Speaker 18: does it take seven minutes or something? 541 00:27:37,347 --> 00:27:37,547 Speaker 5: To do? 542 00:27:38,027 --> 00:27:38,187 Speaker 15: You know? 543 00:27:38,227 --> 00:27:39,267 Speaker 18: If you know what I mean, they're I. 544 00:27:39,347 --> 00:27:41,747 Speaker 3: Do, Michael, I do. Yeah, it's a valid point you make. 545 00:27:41,827 --> 00:27:43,707 Speaker 3: It is I guess they've only the director's only got 546 00:27:43,747 --> 00:27:46,827 Speaker 3: he's got the choice of shots, and I guess the 547 00:27:46,867 --> 00:27:49,467 Speaker 3: money shot off and is that one of who's leading 548 00:27:49,507 --> 00:27:52,227 Speaker 3: the race? But yep, know your points A good one 549 00:27:52,347 --> 00:27:55,027 Speaker 3: and well made.

Gardnerholmes, New Zealand's most trusted home builder 559 00:28:22,747 --> 00:28:23,547 Speaker 1: News talks. 560 00:28:23,467 --> 00:28:25,827 Speaker 3: Be heartbreak for eric A fair Weather in the pool 561 00:28:25,867 --> 00:28:27,507 Speaker 3: this morning. I wanted to get a view from our 562 00:28:27,787 --> 00:28:31,147 Speaker 3: coaching guru, Wayne Goldsmith, who joins us regularly on the show, 563 00:28:31,187 --> 00:28:33,907 Speaker 3: and how she best puts this behind her, given she 564 00:28:34,027 --> 00:28:37,347 Speaker 3: has three more events to compete in starting tonight and 565 00:28:37,467 --> 00:28:42,507 Speaker 3: consultation with her coach. What strategies could she use? Wayne? 566 00:28:42,707 --> 00:28:45,187 Speaker 3: First of all, how challenging will it be for eric 567 00:28:45,267 --> 00:28:48,067 Speaker 3: A Fairweather to put this behind her and to almost 568 00:28:48,147 --> 00:28:50,347 Speaker 3: immediately refocus on her next event? 569 00:28:50,987 --> 00:28:53,267 Speaker 15: Well, first of all, we're going to say how proud 570 00:28:53,867 --> 00:28:55,507 Speaker 15: New Zealand should be of Erica. 571 00:28:55,667 --> 00:28:56,107 Speaker 19: That man. 572 00:28:56,227 --> 00:29:00,387 Speaker 15: She got beaten by the current world record holder, by 573 00:29:00,867 --> 00:29:05,507 Speaker 15: the Canadian Son Macintosh, who broke the world four hundred 574 00:29:05,547 --> 00:29:08,387 Speaker 15: im record only a few weeks ago, and the greatest 575 00:29:08,427 --> 00:29:11,947 Speaker 15: female distance swimmer of all times. So it's I don't know, 576 00:29:12,027 --> 00:29:14,307 Speaker 15: it's like being beaten by the All Blacks by a 577 00:29:14,387 --> 00:29:18,707 Speaker 15: point in a final of the World Cup. I mean, 578 00:29:18,787 --> 00:29:22,787 Speaker 15: it's you know where I think all New Zealand should 579 00:29:22,787 --> 00:29:24,947 Speaker 15: be so proud of what she's done here there. But 580 00:29:25,307 --> 00:29:28,987 Speaker 15: you're exactly right. The challenge is now, as it is 581 00:29:29,147 --> 00:29:33,507 Speaker 15: with so many athletes that have got high expectations, either 582 00:29:33,787 --> 00:29:36,467 Speaker 15: they put on themselves or people have placed on them, 583 00:29:36,507 --> 00:29:39,747 Speaker 15: to say, all right, didn't quite get where I wanted 584 00:29:39,787 --> 00:29:43,107 Speaker 15: to be, didn't get the result that I quite expected. However, 585 00:29:43,587 --> 00:29:46,827 Speaker 15: I need to be at my absolute best and quickly. 586 00:29:47,027 --> 00:29:49,947 Speaker 15: So the question is really how do you move on? 587 00:29:50,747 --> 00:29:54,707 Speaker 15: And I take it back to an NRL story, believe 588 00:29:54,707 --> 00:29:57,347 Speaker 15: it or not, where I was sitting talking with Tobe 589 00:29:57,427 --> 00:29:59,987 Speaker 15: Sexton's there with the Bulldogs and at the time he 590 00:30:00,107 --> 00:30:02,507 Speaker 15: was with the Gold Coast Titans, and we're having a 591 00:30:02,627 --> 00:30:05,587 Speaker 15: chat about how do you get players to move on 592 00:30:05,787 --> 00:30:09,627 Speaker 15: quickly after a tribes been scored and he was talking 593 00:30:09,667 --> 00:30:12,507 Speaker 15: about he said, look, I noticed as a halfback that 594 00:30:12,587 --> 00:30:15,947 Speaker 15: I'm in the ingyle area and the players are talking 595 00:30:16,067 --> 00:30:20,347 Speaker 15: about who missed the tackle and how disappointed they were 596 00:30:20,547 --> 00:30:24,067 Speaker 15: and talking about where the gap was, And I said, Davie, 597 00:30:24,907 --> 00:30:27,667 Speaker 15: the bottom line is we've got to ask the question, 598 00:30:28,507 --> 00:30:31,667 Speaker 15: what do I need to do now and what do 599 00:30:31,747 --> 00:30:34,507 Speaker 15: I need to do next? Because made as humans, we're 600 00:30:34,707 --> 00:30:38,747 Speaker 15: all focused on what's happened, what we know has gone before. 601 00:30:39,387 --> 00:30:43,227 Speaker 15: The trick is to get our brains focused on what 602 00:30:43,427 --> 00:30:46,267 Speaker 15: do I need to do now? What must I do next? 603 00:30:46,747 --> 00:30:48,747 Speaker 15: Where do I in their case, where do I have 604 00:30:48,867 --> 00:30:52,347 Speaker 15: to stand off the kickoff? So to bring them into now, 605 00:30:52,667 --> 00:30:55,067 Speaker 15: to bring them into the moment and get them out 606 00:30:55,107 --> 00:30:56,867 Speaker 15: of their head, which is living in the past. 607 00:30:57,507 --> 00:31:00,467 Speaker 3: And then I guess leads into the analysis of what 608 00:31:00,587 --> 00:31:02,787 Speaker 3: went wrong. I get the feeling. What you're going to 609 00:31:02,827 --> 00:31:05,107 Speaker 3: tell me is that the analysis of the four hundred 610 00:31:05,147 --> 00:31:07,427 Speaker 3: freestyle can wait for now. 611 00:31:09,027 --> 00:31:12,107 Speaker 15: There's nothing and is a great liner like the pony, 612 00:31:12,147 --> 00:31:15,547 Speaker 15: which is there's nothing that you can do now from 613 00:31:15,587 --> 00:31:17,987 Speaker 15: a physical perspective that's going to make you any better. 614 00:31:18,267 --> 00:31:19,627 Speaker 15: But she's you could do a lot of things to 615 00:31:19,707 --> 00:31:21,827 Speaker 15: stuff it up, and I think, what a lot of 616 00:31:21,987 --> 00:31:25,227 Speaker 15: inexperienced coaches do. You know, first time coaches and the Olympics. 617 00:31:25,707 --> 00:31:28,147 Speaker 15: Quite often what they do is they over analyze and 618 00:31:28,227 --> 00:31:28,627 Speaker 15: they say, you. 619 00:31:28,667 --> 00:31:29,347 Speaker 8: Know what we've got to do. 620 00:31:29,987 --> 00:31:32,307 Speaker 15: We've got to swim it the way Fittma swim at all. 621 00:31:32,347 --> 00:31:35,227 Speaker 15: We've got to play the way the French played in 622 00:31:35,347 --> 00:31:38,227 Speaker 15: the sevens. We're going to change everything because that's what 623 00:31:38,427 --> 00:31:41,907 Speaker 15: they're doing. Dumbest thing you could ever do is to 624 00:31:42,147 --> 00:31:45,547 Speaker 15: change what's worked for you, letting up. She's a world champion, 625 00:31:45,627 --> 00:31:47,347 Speaker 15: you know, she is a hell of a good swimmer. 626 00:31:47,827 --> 00:31:50,107 Speaker 15: So the things that you've done to get to the 627 00:31:50,187 --> 00:31:52,987 Speaker 15: Olympics and the things that you've done to be that 628 00:31:53,307 --> 00:31:57,267 Speaker 15: good will hold you together right now. And may look, 629 00:31:57,467 --> 00:32:00,547 Speaker 15: I've been in these rooms in Olympic villages and in 630 00:32:00,747 --> 00:32:02,587 Speaker 15: Olympic war rooms as you call them, and you sit 631 00:32:02,707 --> 00:32:05,347 Speaker 15: down and say, wow, we've got to turn things around quickly. 632 00:32:06,067 --> 00:32:08,667 Speaker 15: The most experienced coaches that I've worked with, so the 633 00:32:08,747 --> 00:32:11,467 Speaker 15: don Talbots in swimming and some of the great ones 634 00:32:11,507 --> 00:32:14,187 Speaker 15: that have been there over and over again, they just 635 00:32:14,267 --> 00:32:16,267 Speaker 15: look at you and say, when you ask what are 636 00:32:16,307 --> 00:32:20,067 Speaker 15: we going to do? They basically say, don't change anything, 637 00:32:20,787 --> 00:32:23,227 Speaker 15: if anything. I know it sounds really crazy. Do less. 638 00:32:23,987 --> 00:32:27,987 Speaker 15: The general rule before Olympic game starts is work hard. 639 00:32:28,507 --> 00:32:31,147 Speaker 15: There general rule once it starts, once you're in the 640 00:32:31,307 --> 00:32:36,507 Speaker 15: environment is rest more, recover more, regenerate more, look after 641 00:32:36,547 --> 00:32:39,867 Speaker 15: your mental health, sleep better. There's nothing you can do 642 00:32:40,027 --> 00:32:43,467 Speaker 15: physically to make yourself better once you're in the environment. 643 00:32:43,947 --> 00:32:47,067 Speaker 15: It's all about sticking to the things that have got 644 00:32:47,107 --> 00:32:48,227 Speaker 15: you there in the first place. 645 00:32:48,667 --> 00:32:50,427 Speaker 3: I'm sure that there would have been a routine in 646 00:32:50,507 --> 00:32:53,427 Speaker 3: place for Erica and for other swimmers who were involved 647 00:32:53,467 --> 00:32:56,307 Speaker 3: in multiple events, because she's certainly not the only one 648 00:32:56,667 --> 00:32:59,787 Speaker 3: when lose or whatever after the four hundred, there would 649 00:32:59,787 --> 00:33:02,747 Speaker 3: have been a plan for her for the twelve twenty 650 00:33:02,787 --> 00:33:04,907 Speaker 3: four hours after that as she hits into the two 651 00:33:05,027 --> 00:33:09,187 Speaker 3: hundred free. So sticking to that is key, from what 652 00:33:09,267 --> 00:33:10,067 Speaker 3: I'm hearing you say. 653 00:33:10,747 --> 00:33:12,987 Speaker 15: It is. And look what you can do, and what 654 00:33:13,227 --> 00:33:17,227 Speaker 15: some coaches will do is you change something, but change nothing. 655 00:33:17,627 --> 00:33:19,267 Speaker 9: So what I mean by that is you. 656 00:33:19,427 --> 00:33:25,067 Speaker 15: Might change something that is in reality testimony. I can't 657 00:33:25,067 --> 00:33:28,227 Speaker 15: even say that without my false second. But you might 658 00:33:28,427 --> 00:33:32,387 Speaker 15: change something, not because it's going to make any physical 659 00:33:32,587 --> 00:33:36,787 Speaker 15: or technical change in reality, but the athlete goes, you know, okay, 660 00:33:37,107 --> 00:33:39,227 Speaker 15: that's going to make me better. Sometimes you play a 661 00:33:39,267 --> 00:33:41,627 Speaker 15: little bit of a mind game where you go, you 662 00:33:41,707 --> 00:33:43,347 Speaker 15: know what, I've been thinking about the race. You know 663 00:33:43,347 --> 00:33:45,787 Speaker 15: what I think we should do. Why don't we change 664 00:33:46,267 --> 00:33:48,307 Speaker 15: instead of using your left hand, we use your right 665 00:33:48,347 --> 00:33:50,627 Speaker 15: hand on that? And they go, oh, yeah, that's good. 666 00:33:50,667 --> 00:33:50,827 Speaker 8: Yeah. 667 00:33:51,307 --> 00:33:54,867 Speaker 15: See you're giving them something small to focus on. Where 668 00:33:54,907 --> 00:33:57,227 Speaker 15: they go, yep, I've made a change. It's going to 669 00:33:57,307 --> 00:34:01,347 Speaker 15: improve me. In reality, it probably is here or there, 670 00:34:01,427 --> 00:34:05,067 Speaker 15: doesn't really make a difference. But sometimes with some athletes, 671 00:34:05,107 --> 00:34:07,987 Speaker 15: you give them a little thing, just a tiny, tiny 672 00:34:08,107 --> 00:34:11,827 Speaker 15: thing that they can focus on that gives them the 673 00:34:11,907 --> 00:34:14,987 Speaker 15: confidence to say, hey, okay, I learned from yesterday. My 674 00:34:15,107 --> 00:34:17,427 Speaker 15: coaches come up with an idea for me, and we're 675 00:34:17,507 --> 00:34:19,947 Speaker 15: going to change something just to give them a little 676 00:34:19,987 --> 00:34:22,987 Speaker 15: bit of a boost if they need it. But again, 677 00:34:23,347 --> 00:34:27,187 Speaker 15: it would be very very small. You wouldn't change anything substantial. 678 00:34:27,987 --> 00:34:30,347 Speaker 3: Everyone's going to have an opinion. Obviously, there are only 679 00:34:30,427 --> 00:34:33,587 Speaker 3: certain opinions, very small number of opinions that will actually 680 00:34:34,467 --> 00:34:38,347 Speaker 3: count to Eric Afairweather. But in terms of athletes in 681 00:34:38,427 --> 00:34:41,547 Speaker 3: her position staying off their screens, is that something that 682 00:34:41,627 --> 00:34:42,947 Speaker 3: you would encourage as a coach. 683 00:34:43,707 --> 00:34:46,227 Speaker 15: Oh yeah, look, I got up this morning and because 684 00:34:46,867 --> 00:34:49,427 Speaker 15: I'm into sport and swimming particularly or there were so 685 00:34:49,747 --> 00:34:53,827 Speaker 15: many emails and texts and social media posts and so 686 00:34:54,107 --> 00:34:54,667 Speaker 15: many of them. 687 00:34:55,347 --> 00:34:55,707 Speaker 8: I don't know. 688 00:34:55,827 --> 00:34:57,947 Speaker 15: They should apply for a license to be able to 689 00:34:58,027 --> 00:35:02,707 Speaker 15: use a keyboard because some of the comments right across 690 00:35:02,747 --> 00:35:06,267 Speaker 15: the board were just ridiculous. There was a conspiracy theory 691 00:35:06,587 --> 00:35:09,187 Speaker 15: about the Chinese team, for example, that I read this 692 00:35:09,307 --> 00:35:13,427 Speaker 15: morning that they deliberately swim slowly to lose the final 693 00:35:13,507 --> 00:35:16,467 Speaker 15: of the relay because they wanted to catch people off guard. 694 00:35:16,467 --> 00:35:19,067 Speaker 15: I mean, it was just so much rubbish, you know. 695 00:35:19,147 --> 00:35:21,987 Speaker 15: And if you're an athlete in the village and you're 696 00:35:22,107 --> 00:35:25,267 Speaker 15: going what I need is I need a little bit 697 00:35:25,267 --> 00:35:28,227 Speaker 15: of reassurance or I need something to make me feel better. 698 00:35:28,347 --> 00:35:28,747 Speaker 8: I need. 699 00:35:30,467 --> 00:35:33,587 Speaker 15: A quick emotional hit to read something positive, and you 700 00:35:33,707 --> 00:35:37,107 Speaker 15: go on social media. It just doesn't work. And look 701 00:35:37,587 --> 00:35:40,027 Speaker 15: what you said, Pin is exactly right. You have a 702 00:35:40,187 --> 00:35:42,587 Speaker 15: small group of people that you listen to and trust 703 00:35:43,187 --> 00:35:45,067 Speaker 15: and you put your faith in them. So it could 704 00:35:45,147 --> 00:35:49,187 Speaker 15: be for example, your coach and your life partner, or 705 00:35:49,387 --> 00:35:51,947 Speaker 15: your coach and your mum and dad, or coach and 706 00:35:52,027 --> 00:35:55,547 Speaker 15: your best friend or two members of your team. You 707 00:35:55,667 --> 00:35:59,347 Speaker 15: have a very small circle and if you want help 708 00:35:59,387 --> 00:36:02,187 Speaker 15: and support, you'd go to them one of the Again, 709 00:36:02,267 --> 00:36:05,187 Speaker 15: another I love talking about is another thing you've got 710 00:36:05,267 --> 00:36:07,867 Speaker 15: to be really careful of is to have set all 711 00:36:07,947 --> 00:36:11,907 Speaker 15: this up beforehand with the team on how you'll deal 712 00:36:12,027 --> 00:36:14,667 Speaker 15: with win, lose, or draw. So what I mean by 713 00:36:14,747 --> 00:36:17,947 Speaker 15: that often say to teams that are going to big competitions, 714 00:36:18,547 --> 00:36:20,787 Speaker 15: it doesn't matter what happens, They're going to be on 715 00:36:20,867 --> 00:36:23,427 Speaker 15: an emotional rollercase to feeling great if they do well, 716 00:36:23,827 --> 00:36:26,627 Speaker 15: feeling not so good if they do poorly. When they 717 00:36:26,747 --> 00:36:29,187 Speaker 15: come back to be part of the team, be their rock, 718 00:36:29,707 --> 00:36:33,867 Speaker 15: be stable, be strong, be positive, be helpful, be caring. 719 00:36:34,507 --> 00:36:38,187 Speaker 15: Don't give them too much advice, because if they're already 720 00:36:38,427 --> 00:36:41,627 Speaker 15: trying to sift through and figure out a simple, clear 721 00:36:41,747 --> 00:36:44,387 Speaker 15: path forward and they're getting one hundred and ninety two 722 00:36:44,427 --> 00:36:47,867 Speaker 15: different voices in their ear, it only makes things more 723 00:36:47,987 --> 00:36:51,387 Speaker 15: complicated and more difficult. And I think that's where the 724 00:36:51,467 --> 00:36:55,867 Speaker 15: relationship between coaches and their athletes become vitally important, because 725 00:36:56,307 --> 00:36:58,507 Speaker 15: in moments like these, you just want to hear one 726 00:36:58,627 --> 00:36:59,547 Speaker 15: voice that. 727 00:36:59,667 --> 00:37:02,467 Speaker 3: You know and trust, and you've got faith in so 728 00:37:02,667 --> 00:37:05,867 Speaker 3: much wisdom, why just one final thing? And this might 729 00:37:05,947 --> 00:37:08,747 Speaker 3: be a hard question to answer, but in your experience, 730 00:37:08,907 --> 00:37:12,027 Speaker 3: when a swimmer, let's stay with swimming, When a swimmer 731 00:37:12,107 --> 00:37:14,907 Speaker 3: experience is disappointment but then has to get back in 732 00:37:14,987 --> 00:37:20,187 Speaker 3: the poll straight away, is that typically generally a good thing? 733 00:37:21,107 --> 00:37:25,627 Speaker 3: Or will someone's performance just naturally go down but because 734 00:37:25,667 --> 00:37:28,027 Speaker 3: of the disappointment of the first race, if you get 735 00:37:28,027 --> 00:37:31,107 Speaker 3: what I'm asking, yeah, no, My view. 736 00:37:31,067 --> 00:37:34,747 Speaker 15: Is as always made. It comes down to preparation. And 737 00:37:34,747 --> 00:37:36,547 Speaker 15: it's the same as when you're working on football teams, 738 00:37:36,587 --> 00:37:38,947 Speaker 15: isn't it is that you go in thinking, yo, I 739 00:37:38,987 --> 00:37:41,307 Speaker 15: want to win the game, But what happens if we 740 00:37:41,427 --> 00:37:44,107 Speaker 15: lose someone in the first ten minutes? What happens if 741 00:37:44,147 --> 00:37:46,627 Speaker 15: we get a nine to one penalty count, what happens 742 00:37:46,627 --> 00:37:48,507 Speaker 15: if all of a sudden it's eighteen mil at a 743 00:37:48,507 --> 00:37:52,907 Speaker 15: half time? You play out all those different possibilities and 744 00:37:53,107 --> 00:37:55,587 Speaker 15: you prepare for them, and you know, I know, when 745 00:37:55,627 --> 00:37:57,667 Speaker 15: I've been in camps and when I've been in the 746 00:37:57,747 --> 00:38:01,027 Speaker 15: villages with athletes over the years, you get to this 747 00:38:01,227 --> 00:38:08,147 Speaker 15: moment and you want them to feel howard and powerful 748 00:38:08,947 --> 00:38:11,707 Speaker 15: and that what happens to the next is their choice 749 00:38:12,387 --> 00:38:15,627 Speaker 15: is that yesterday was yesterday. I can't do anything about 750 00:38:15,667 --> 00:38:18,307 Speaker 15: what happened. All we're focused on is what do I 751 00:38:18,427 --> 00:38:20,707 Speaker 15: do now? And point it can come down some really 752 00:38:20,787 --> 00:38:23,267 Speaker 15: simple things like okay, what are we going to do now? 753 00:38:23,307 --> 00:38:25,707 Speaker 15: We're going to get in and do some easy laps, 754 00:38:25,947 --> 00:38:27,507 Speaker 15: or then we're going to do what We're going to 755 00:38:27,547 --> 00:38:29,547 Speaker 15: go to the village and have a really good meal. 756 00:38:29,627 --> 00:38:31,027 Speaker 15: What are we going to do and we're to have 757 00:38:31,067 --> 00:38:36,107 Speaker 15: a nice nap and asleep and sticking to simple practical 758 00:38:36,747 --> 00:38:40,587 Speaker 15: things that you can do and be focused on what 759 00:38:40,947 --> 00:38:44,747 Speaker 15: comes next. I mean that word next, and even more importantly, 760 00:38:44,787 --> 00:38:47,107 Speaker 15: I guess the word now, what are we going to 761 00:38:47,187 --> 00:38:47,867 Speaker 15: do now? 762 00:38:48,027 --> 00:38:48,947 Speaker 8: What do we do here? 763 00:38:49,347 --> 00:38:51,987 Speaker 15: What are you going to do next? Bring it from 764 00:38:52,147 --> 00:38:54,747 Speaker 15: the past into writing and right now, because mate, as 765 00:38:54,787 --> 00:38:57,187 Speaker 15: you and I know, I haven't had breakfast even it's 766 00:38:57,187 --> 00:39:00,587 Speaker 15: a little bit late, but I'm about to choose what 767 00:39:00,747 --> 00:39:04,147 Speaker 15: I eat for breakfast, and because that's about to happen, 768 00:39:04,227 --> 00:39:05,987 Speaker 15: I can't control what I had to eat or drink. 769 00:39:06,027 --> 00:39:09,787 Speaker 15: Lass can't do anything about what's gone. And to get 770 00:39:09,867 --> 00:39:13,707 Speaker 15: the athletes in that mindset to say I choose to 771 00:39:13,827 --> 00:39:18,587 Speaker 15: move on and swim really really fast. I choose to 772 00:39:18,747 --> 00:39:23,507 Speaker 15: be remarkable tomorrow. I choose to warm up brilliantly.

Well, this happened yesterday. I 776 00:39:32,867 --> 00:39:35,707 Speaker 15: have no control over the past, but I can control 777 00:39:35,787 --> 00:39:37,867 Speaker 15: what I do, where I am.

But to Canada 833 00:42:50,867 --> 00:42:54,107 Speaker 3: we go significant punishments for the Canadian women's football team 834 00:42:54,387 --> 00:42:58,147 Speaker 3: at the Paris Olympic Games. FIFA has announced a six 835 00:42:58,467 --> 00:43:02,267 Speaker 3: point deduction from their group tally at the Games. That've 836 00:43:02,347 --> 00:43:06,587 Speaker 3: been fined two hundred thousand Swiss francs, which is four 837 00:43:06,667 --> 00:43:09,267 Speaker 3: hundred thousand New Zealand dolls, and their head coach Bev 838 00:43:09,507 --> 00:43:13,467 Speaker 3: Priestman and two members of her staff have been banned 839 00:43:13,747 --> 00:43:17,867 Speaker 3: from all football activity for the period of a year. 840 00:43:18,307 --> 00:43:22,427 Speaker 3: Canadian support staff twice used drones to spy on New 841 00:43:22,547 --> 00:43:26,467 Speaker 3: Zealand training sessions ahead of their games opener on Thursday. 842 00:43:26,547 --> 00:43:30,187 Speaker 3: Canada won the match two to one, meaning they go 843 00:43:30,427 --> 00:43:34,907 Speaker 3: from minus six to minus three and stay last in 844 00:43:34,987 --> 00:43:38,627 Speaker 3: Group A. Incidentally, New Zealand don't get the points, it's 845 00:43:38,827 --> 00:43:43,347 Speaker 3: just Canada who lose them. Dylan Dyson is an Ottawa 846 00:43:43,427 --> 00:43:46,587 Speaker 3: based sports reporter who joins US on Weekend Sport. Dylan, 847 00:43:46,627 --> 00:43:49,187 Speaker 3: thanks for lending us your expertise. What did you make 848 00:43:49,307 --> 00:43:52,467 Speaker 3: first of all of these sanctions handed down by. 849 00:43:52,467 --> 00:43:56,827 Speaker 11: FIFA, Yeah, Jason, I thought these were some pretty heavy 850 00:43:56,907 --> 00:44:00,987 Speaker 11: handed sanctions were given to the Canadian women's national team. 851 00:44:02,387 --> 00:44:04,547 Speaker 11: You know, it's a triple whamy. It's the points deduction, 852 00:44:04,867 --> 00:44:08,907 Speaker 11: it's the suspension of the coach. And it's the financial 853 00:44:09,067 --> 00:44:12,627 Speaker 11: fine as well. I mean, anyone here who follows Canadian 854 00:44:12,667 --> 00:44:15,947 Speaker 11: soccer knows that Canada soccer has been in financial turmoil 855 00:44:16,027 --> 00:44:18,907 Speaker 11: for some time, so you know, just the extra fine 856 00:44:19,027 --> 00:44:20,587 Speaker 11: just you know, ads on top of it all. But 857 00:44:21,067 --> 00:44:24,987 Speaker 11: like you said, a minus three point total after one 858 00:44:25,107 --> 00:44:28,787 Speaker 11: game at the Olympics, I mean, I've never seen that 859 00:44:28,867 --> 00:44:31,947 Speaker 11: before in my life. We've seen you points deductions for 860 00:44:32,067 --> 00:44:36,347 Speaker 11: teams like Juventus or Everton, notdham Forrest this past year. 861 00:44:37,587 --> 00:44:40,267 Speaker 11: I've never seen the points total in the negatives. And 862 00:44:41,107 --> 00:44:43,667 Speaker 11: you know, all of this together seems very heavy handed 863 00:44:43,747 --> 00:44:46,267 Speaker 11: and I feel extremely bad for the players. I think 864 00:44:46,307 --> 00:44:50,187 Speaker 11: that's a sentiment all across Canada. It's the poor judgment 865 00:44:50,787 --> 00:44:55,067 Speaker 11: from the coaching staff to you know, blatantly cheat like this. 866 00:44:55,347 --> 00:44:59,667 Speaker 11: I mean, Canada are defending gold medal champions from the 867 00:44:59,747 --> 00:45:04,147 Speaker 11: Olympics in women's soccer, and you know there's no need 868 00:45:04,267 --> 00:45:06,187 Speaker 11: for them to go out and try and cheat this 869 00:45:06,347 --> 00:45:09,347 Speaker 11: where they have a strong team, and it's just it's 870 00:45:09,507 --> 00:45:15,187 Speaker 11: unethical in Canadians, in Canada's view. And you know, Canada 871 00:45:15,307 --> 00:45:17,987 Speaker 11: has this perception that we're all very nice over here 872 00:45:18,027 --> 00:45:20,507 Speaker 11: and to an extent that is true. But you know, 873 00:45:20,667 --> 00:45:23,387 Speaker 11: with that personality, you know, we also feel a great 874 00:45:23,427 --> 00:45:25,667 Speaker 11: deal of shame when things like this happen. 875 00:45:26,347 --> 00:45:29,707 Speaker 3: Sounds like a similar kind of psyche to what we 876 00:45:29,827 --> 00:45:32,907 Speaker 3: have here in New Zealand. How long do you think 877 00:45:33,027 --> 00:45:34,827 Speaker 3: this has been going on? Do you have a gut 878 00:45:34,907 --> 00:45:35,427 Speaker 3: feel on that. 879 00:45:37,227 --> 00:45:41,467 Speaker 11: It's it's really tough to to think about how long 880 00:45:41,587 --> 00:45:45,627 Speaker 11: that's been going on, because not long ago, just a 881 00:45:45,707 --> 00:45:48,947 Speaker 11: couple of days ago. John Herdman, who is currently head 882 00:45:49,027 --> 00:45:52,387 Speaker 11: coach at Toronto of C in the MLS, he was 883 00:45:53,067 --> 00:45:56,387 Speaker 11: the women's national team head coach prior to the Priestman, 884 00:45:57,907 --> 00:45:59,707 Speaker 11: and you know, he says, you know, this wasn't going 885 00:45:59,747 --> 00:46:03,947 Speaker 11: on under my watch. You know, he was head coach 886 00:46:04,147 --> 00:46:08,387 Speaker 11: for a number of years with the Canadian women's national 887 00:46:08,467 --> 00:46:12,987 Speaker 11: team and you know, drone usage recently kind of when 888 00:46:13,027 --> 00:46:15,387 Speaker 11: I say recently in air quotes, recently kind of came 889 00:46:15,427 --> 00:46:22,067 Speaker 11: into heavy usage in sports and recreationally. But he says 890 00:46:22,107 --> 00:46:24,907 Speaker 11: that never took place. And then you know, our sister 891 00:46:25,027 --> 00:46:28,907 Speaker 11: station here in Canada TSN reported that, you know, John 892 00:46:28,947 --> 00:46:33,627 Speaker 11: Herdman showed drone footage to you know, offwards of a 893 00:46:33,747 --> 00:46:37,787 Speaker 11: dozen seventeen players on the Canadian men's national team. When 894 00:46:37,827 --> 00:46:41,147 Speaker 11: he left the women's team, he joined the men's national team. 895 00:46:41,187 --> 00:46:44,987 Speaker 11: Now he's with Toronto i FC. Now it's it's bad 896 00:46:45,067 --> 00:46:48,027 Speaker 11: priestsman who's done this and has been successful with Canada. 897 00:46:48,147 --> 00:46:52,267 Speaker 11: So it's it's very disheartening and it's tough to imagine 898 00:46:52,347 --> 00:46:57,547 Speaker 11: how far back this could go. And to look at 899 00:46:57,627 --> 00:47:01,707 Speaker 11: Canada soccer as an organization. We have come so far 900 00:47:02,027 --> 00:47:05,307 Speaker 11: in such a short period of time over the last three, 901 00:47:05,467 --> 00:47:09,827 Speaker 11: four or five years. Is you know, great qualification campaign 902 00:47:09,907 --> 00:47:13,187 Speaker 11: for the twenty twenty two World Cup, a great showing 903 00:47:13,267 --> 00:47:16,787 Speaker 11: at the most recent Cocoa America tournament, and to think 904 00:47:17,227 --> 00:47:21,787 Speaker 11: a lot of that could be tarnished by the actions 905 00:47:21,867 --> 00:47:26,507 Speaker 11: and poor judgment of you know, a few coaching staff members. 906 00:47:27,227 --> 00:47:30,747 Speaker 11: It's a real gut punch to Canadian soccer fans. 907 00:47:31,587 --> 00:47:33,187 Speaker 3: Do you think the play is new? 908 00:47:36,987 --> 00:47:39,707 Speaker 11: That's that's that's a great question. I mean there's being 909 00:47:41,467 --> 00:47:46,467 Speaker 11: a lot of former women's national team players come out 910 00:47:46,667 --> 00:47:51,387 Speaker 11: to say they didn't know, you know, our greatest ever player, 911 00:47:51,547 --> 00:47:54,707 Speaker 11: Christine Sinclair, who scored you know, over three hundred goals 912 00:47:55,307 --> 00:47:58,227 Speaker 11: for Canada. She says, you know, they never saw any 913 00:47:58,267 --> 00:48:03,147 Speaker 11: footage of this type. You know, former goalkeepers coming out saying, 914 00:48:03,347 --> 00:48:06,987 Speaker 11: I did my research on penalty shootout to you know, 915 00:48:07,267 --> 00:48:11,947 Speaker 11: win US games. I never saw footage like that. So 916 00:48:12,187 --> 00:48:15,267 Speaker 11: it's you want to believe these players who put their 917 00:48:15,347 --> 00:48:18,187 Speaker 11: heart and soul into the match, who you know, kiss 918 00:48:18,267 --> 00:48:21,867 Speaker 11: the badge and pride every time they win for Canada, 919 00:48:23,547 --> 00:48:25,747 Speaker 11: and so you want to be on their side and 920 00:48:25,907 --> 00:48:29,867 Speaker 11: believe what that they're saying. They never saw any drone 921 00:48:29,907 --> 00:48:34,027 Speaker 11: footage or any any footage of that was used in 922 00:48:34,147 --> 00:48:39,267 Speaker 11: spying of other teams. But the more this scandal has 923 00:48:39,387 --> 00:48:43,347 Speaker 11: evolved and developed here on Canadian soil, the more we're 924 00:48:43,427 --> 00:48:46,987 Speaker 11: learning about it. You know, you know, did John Herdman 925 00:48:47,427 --> 00:48:50,667 Speaker 11: have any influence in this? Did Bev Priestman, you know, 926 00:48:50,947 --> 00:48:54,347 Speaker 11: learn some of these tactics from John Herdman. It's it's 927 00:48:54,427 --> 00:48:59,667 Speaker 11: all very murky, and it's you hope the players didn't 928 00:48:59,747 --> 00:49:01,547 Speaker 11: know much about it and it was kept within the 929 00:49:01,627 --> 00:49:05,627 Speaker 11: coaching staff, but it's it's impossible to say. And I mean, frankly, 930 00:49:05,627 --> 00:49:07,347 Speaker 11: I don't think you're going to have players come out 931 00:49:07,427 --> 00:49:09,627 Speaker 11: and admit that they were part of a cheating scandal. 932 00:49:09,747 --> 00:49:14,387 Speaker 3: So of course, no beef Priceman as a Sai Band 933 00:49:14,507 --> 00:49:17,147 Speaker 3: for a year. But this is the end of her 934 00:49:17,307 --> 00:49:21,107 Speaker 3: surely as head coach of the Canadian women's football team, 935 00:49:21,147 --> 00:49:21,427 Speaker 3: isn't it. 936 00:49:23,387 --> 00:49:26,507 Speaker 11: I mean you have to imagine, so, I mean, a 937 00:49:26,627 --> 00:49:28,707 Speaker 11: year out of football, it's just going to be damaging 938 00:49:28,867 --> 00:49:34,467 Speaker 11: for anybody. But like I said earlier, I mean us Canadians, 939 00:49:34,907 --> 00:49:40,347 Speaker 11: we pride ourselves on being ethical, being fair in everything 940 00:49:40,387 --> 00:49:43,347 Speaker 11: we do. That includes sport, and the shames that the 941 00:49:43,467 --> 00:49:49,627 Speaker 11: nation is fealing right now from this drone gate scandal. 942 00:49:49,267 --> 00:49:50,987 Speaker 8: That it's being called. 943 00:49:52,787 --> 00:49:56,307 Speaker 11: She is I can probably say with confidence from my 944 00:49:57,027 --> 00:50:00,707 Speaker 11: opinion that she will not be returning to the Canadian 945 00:50:00,707 --> 00:50:03,707 Speaker 11: women's national team. I just can't see Canada Soccer taking 946 00:50:04,347 --> 00:50:07,947 Speaker 11: her back as a head coach coach, especially with new 947 00:50:08,267 --> 00:50:11,387 Speaker 11: leadership at the top of Canada Soccer trying to you know, 948 00:50:11,627 --> 00:50:17,267 Speaker 11: sort out what it's called as a systematic failure in 949 00:50:17,387 --> 00:50:21,547 Speaker 11: terms of you know, this these ethical findings. The Canada 950 00:50:21,587 --> 00:50:25,547 Speaker 11: Soccer is doing an external or having an external investigation done, 951 00:50:25,947 --> 00:50:29,267 Speaker 11: you know, following these revelations. And you know new CEO 952 00:50:29,507 --> 00:50:31,947 Speaker 11: Kevin Blue you said, you know, he used that word 953 00:50:32,107 --> 00:50:35,387 Speaker 11: systematic more than once in the most recent press conference. 954 00:50:35,467 --> 00:50:40,547 Speaker 11: So that gives you an indication that this kind of behavior, 955 00:50:40,627 --> 00:50:43,587 Speaker 11: these actions go back much further than just you know, 956 00:50:43,947 --> 00:50:48,507 Speaker 11: this one time use. So it's it's you know, in 957 00:50:48,587 --> 00:50:51,267 Speaker 11: my view, near impossible to say that preasonable will return 958 00:50:51,347 --> 00:50:53,387 Speaker 11: to the Canadian women's national team and. 959 00:50:53,467 --> 00:50:57,347 Speaker 3: Just back onto the grass. Dylan. As we've mentioned the 960 00:50:57,547 --> 00:50:59,907 Speaker 3: six point deduction, the three they got for the winner 961 00:50:59,947 --> 00:51:02,507 Speaker 3: of New Zealand. They are at minus three. They could 962 00:51:02,627 --> 00:51:07,747 Speaker 3: get to three points if they bate both Columbia and France, 963 00:51:08,107 --> 00:51:10,467 Speaker 3: so all is not lost. But what do you think 964 00:51:10,507 --> 00:51:12,947 Speaker 3: this will do to the to the playing group. Will 965 00:51:12,987 --> 00:51:18,547 Speaker 3: they be galvanized, will they be demoralized? What sort what 966 00:51:18,707 --> 00:51:20,067 Speaker 3: do you expect from the players? 967 00:51:22,227 --> 00:51:24,427 Speaker 11: Well from let me let me say this rate from 968 00:51:24,467 --> 00:51:26,747 Speaker 11: a job, from a fans perspective, I think a lot 969 00:51:26,827 --> 00:51:29,627 Speaker 11: of fans think it's near impossible for the team to 970 00:51:30,067 --> 00:51:33,867 Speaker 11: dig itself out of this minus three points hole right now. 971 00:51:34,387 --> 00:51:39,347 Speaker 11: But as a player, I think it's going to motivate 972 00:51:39,427 --> 00:51:41,667 Speaker 11: them in the fact that they're going to go out 973 00:51:41,707 --> 00:51:43,827 Speaker 11: there and they have to prove now that you know, 974 00:51:44,027 --> 00:51:48,187 Speaker 11: they're not relying on drone footage, you know, spying tactics 975 00:51:48,227 --> 00:51:50,307 Speaker 11: on other teams just to be able to win they're 976 00:51:50,347 --> 00:51:52,387 Speaker 11: going to want to go out there show that they 977 00:51:52,507 --> 00:51:57,307 Speaker 11: have the skills, the fortitude, the team spirit and the 978 00:51:58,267 --> 00:52:01,947 Speaker 11: ethical play that can beat any other team in the world, 979 00:52:02,147 --> 00:52:05,987 Speaker 11: as they did the last Olympic Games. So I really 980 00:52:05,987 --> 00:52:08,627 Speaker 11: think it's going to motivate them to show what they 981 00:52:08,707 --> 00:52:12,147 Speaker 11: can do. And like we've said, Honey, a minus three 982 00:52:12,187 --> 00:52:15,467 Speaker 11: points total, if a team can come back from that 983 00:52:15,707 --> 00:52:19,387 Speaker 11: and qualify out of a group stage, I mean that'll 984 00:52:19,427 --> 00:52:21,067 Speaker 11: be talked about for years to come. 985 00:52:22,107 --> 00:52:24,307 Speaker 3: Dylan, great to get your insight. Thanks for joining us 986 00:52:24,307 --> 00:52:26,467 Speaker 3: across New Zealand. We'll look forward to seeing how this 987 00:52:26,547 --> 00:52:29,227 Speaker 3: plays out, certainly on the grass and off the field 988 00:52:29,267 --> 00:52:31,827 Speaker 3: as well in the time ahead. I appreciate you taking 989 00:52:31,827 --> 00:52:32,787 Speaker 3: the time for a chat today. 990 00:52:32,947 --> 00:52:35,267 Speaker 8: All Right, cheers, Thanks Jason, No, thank you, Dylan. 991 00:52:35,427 --> 00:52:41,827 Speaker 3: That is Dylan Dyson, Ottawa based sports reporter New Zealand Football. 992 00:52:41,867 --> 00:52:44,507 Speaker 3: As you might have heard in our sports news please 993 00:52:44,627 --> 00:52:47,627 Speaker 3: to see swift action. But they say that issues remain 994 00:52:48,547 --> 00:52:52,307 Speaker 3: given that Canada and I'll quote here likely had an 995 00:52:52,507 --> 00:52:58,067 Speaker 3: unfair sporting advantage gained by filming our key tactical sessions. 996 00:52:59,507 --> 00:53:02,867 Speaker 3: Now it's impossible to quantify whether that is true or not. 997 00:53:03,507 --> 00:53:07,787 Speaker 3: It is impossible to know whether Canada's went over New 998 00:53:07,867 --> 00:53:11,667 Speaker 3: Zealand had any direct or in direct connection to the 999 00:53:11,707 --> 00:53:16,747 Speaker 3: footage that was secretly filmed by these drones. You can't 1000 00:53:16,827 --> 00:53:21,027 Speaker 3: say if they didn't have drones filming New Zealand's training 1001 00:53:21,107 --> 00:53:26,307 Speaker 3: session that they wouldn't have won. It's impossible. Now Canada 1002 00:53:26,427 --> 00:53:30,627 Speaker 3: Soccer are considering an appeal. They reckon the points penalty 1003 00:53:30,907 --> 00:53:35,787 Speaker 3: is excessively punitive for their players, heavy handed, in other words, 1004 00:53:36,347 --> 00:53:42,267 Speaker 3: who they say weren't involved in any unethical behavior. But 1005 00:53:42,347 --> 00:53:44,867 Speaker 3: football is a team game, isn't it? All for one 1006 00:53:44,907 --> 00:53:48,507 Speaker 3: and one for all, live and die collectively by individual 1007 00:53:48,587 --> 00:53:52,947 Speaker 3: decisions made by team players. That's how every team at 1008 00:53:52,947 --> 00:53:55,587 Speaker 3: an elite level will tell you ad nauseum that they 1009 00:53:55,627 --> 00:53:59,147 Speaker 3: are all in this together. I think they should have 1010 00:53:59,147 --> 00:54:03,147 Speaker 3: been kicked out. If they had been kicked out, Would 1011 00:54:03,147 --> 00:54:04,387 Speaker 3: there have already been a big uproar? 1012 00:54:05,227 --> 00:54:05,667 Speaker 15: I doubt it. 1013 00:54:07,427 --> 00:54:10,427 Speaker 3: That's often a gauge on these things. If you say, okay, 1014 00:54:10,547 --> 00:54:12,587 Speaker 3: had they done this, what would the reaction have been? 1015 00:54:13,947 --> 00:54:16,867 Speaker 3: I think if Canada had been kicked out, I'm not 1016 00:54:16,947 --> 00:54:20,107 Speaker 3: sure that there would have been widespread wailing and gnashing 1017 00:54:20,107 --> 00:54:23,947 Speaker 3: of teeth about it. I still don't think New Zealand 1018 00:54:23,947 --> 00:54:26,347 Speaker 3: should get the points. I just something in me just 1019 00:54:26,387 --> 00:54:30,387 Speaker 3: says that's not right. I know when there's a default 1020 00:54:30,467 --> 00:54:33,547 Speaker 3: in a game for whatever reason. You know, you play 1021 00:54:33,587 --> 00:54:38,787 Speaker 3: an ineligible player or whatever happens, or your default. Someone 1022 00:54:38,907 --> 00:54:42,787 Speaker 3: said her, stop saying soccer. It's football, mate. If you've 1023 00:54:42,907 --> 00:54:45,187 Speaker 3: listened to me for any length of time, you'll know. 1024 00:54:45,347 --> 00:54:48,347 Speaker 3: I know it's football. I said Canada Soccer because that's 1025 00:54:48,387 --> 00:54:51,667 Speaker 3: the name of the organization, all right, They're called Canada Soccer. 1026 00:54:52,027 --> 00:54:57,027 Speaker 3: I know it's football, mate. Anyway, I digress. I still 1027 00:54:57,067 --> 00:54:58,747 Speaker 3: don't like the idea of New Zealand geting the points. 1028 00:54:58,787 --> 00:55:01,347 Speaker 3: That doesn't feel right to me. They didn't earn the points, right, 1029 00:55:02,307 --> 00:55:03,707 Speaker 3: They didn't go out there on the grass and nearing 1030 00:55:03,787 --> 00:55:06,987 Speaker 3: the points. And you really can't tell me that Canada 1031 00:55:07,147 --> 00:55:13,947 Speaker 3: had any information gleaned only from those drones, which were 1032 00:55:14,067 --> 00:55:20,347 Speaker 3: the pivotal reason they beat us. Did the players know? 1033 00:55:22,627 --> 00:55:27,507 Speaker 3: This is a really interesting question for me, And even 1034 00:55:27,787 --> 00:55:31,707 Speaker 3: Dylan wasn't able to unequivocally say whether they knew or 1035 00:55:31,787 --> 00:55:34,947 Speaker 3: not because he doesn't know. But you try, you put 1036 00:55:34,987 --> 00:55:37,107 Speaker 3: yourself in the position of the players right now, try 1037 00:55:37,147 --> 00:55:39,747 Speaker 3: to do this. Just go with me on this. You're 1038 00:55:39,827 --> 00:55:43,467 Speaker 3: in the you're in the in camp, you're preparing for 1039 00:55:43,587 --> 00:55:47,187 Speaker 3: a game, and you're as part of the preparation for 1040 00:55:47,227 --> 00:55:50,747 Speaker 3: that game showing you know, hey, we think this is 1041 00:55:50,827 --> 00:55:54,907 Speaker 3: how New Zealand are going to play. We think that 1042 00:55:54,987 --> 00:55:57,267 Speaker 3: they might you know, attack down the left hand side, 1043 00:55:57,427 --> 00:55:59,667 Speaker 3: or they might you know, when they take their corners 1044 00:56:00,107 --> 00:56:01,987 Speaker 3: they swing them in rather than swing them at or 1045 00:56:02,067 --> 00:56:04,667 Speaker 3: something like that. This is all just hypothetical stuff. And 1046 00:56:04,787 --> 00:56:07,707 Speaker 3: if you reply you did you automatically think, oh, they've 1047 00:56:07,747 --> 00:56:11,507 Speaker 3: got that from a drone or would you just think that, hey, 1048 00:56:11,587 --> 00:56:16,187 Speaker 3: we've got really really good technical analysts who have found 1049 00:56:16,227 --> 00:56:19,307 Speaker 3: out a heck of a lot about our opposition. And 1050 00:56:19,427 --> 00:56:22,107 Speaker 3: I don't know, I don't know which it is. Did 1051 00:56:22,187 --> 00:56:29,747 Speaker 3: the players know. I think it's almost impossible that at 1052 00:56:29,867 --> 00:56:34,467 Speaker 3: least some of them didn't know. In other words, I 1053 00:56:34,547 --> 00:56:37,547 Speaker 3: think some of them knew. I think there was probably 1054 00:56:37,587 --> 00:56:40,627 Speaker 3: an inner circle of players in that team close to 1055 00:56:40,707 --> 00:56:43,907 Speaker 3: Bev Priestman, the head coach, who knew exactly what was 1056 00:56:43,947 --> 00:56:48,547 Speaker 3: going on, who knew that intel on opposition teams. And 1057 00:56:48,667 --> 00:56:50,827 Speaker 3: make no mistake about it, this is not just New Zealand. 1058 00:56:52,067 --> 00:56:56,547 Speaker 3: They got caught doing it. Against US. There was a 1059 00:56:56,627 --> 00:57:01,027 Speaker 3: group of players I'm sure in that team who were 1060 00:57:01,107 --> 00:57:03,747 Speaker 3: in some sort of inner circle that were let in 1061 00:57:03,867 --> 00:57:08,107 Speaker 3: on what was going on and were I don't know 1062 00:57:08,107 --> 00:57:10,067 Speaker 3: if that were they were sworn to secrecy. They were 1063 00:57:10,147 --> 00:57:12,267 Speaker 3: just you know, that just made sense for a few 1064 00:57:12,347 --> 00:57:15,907 Speaker 3: people to know. There might have been players who had 1065 00:57:15,987 --> 00:57:18,667 Speaker 3: no idea, and in fact, I'm sure that's probably true too. 1066 00:57:20,267 --> 00:57:22,107 Speaker 3: I'm sure there were some players who just you know, 1067 00:57:22,267 --> 00:57:25,227 Speaker 3: sat in a tactical season, looked at a whiteboard, took 1068 00:57:25,267 --> 00:57:26,947 Speaker 3: in the information that was given to them by the 1069 00:57:27,027 --> 00:57:28,707 Speaker 3: head coach and other members of the coaching staff, and 1070 00:57:28,747 --> 00:57:31,427 Speaker 3: thought that's helpful. That'll be helpful when we play New 1071 00:57:31,507 --> 00:57:35,227 Speaker 3: Zealand on Thursday. I think there's some players who didn't know. 1072 00:57:36,427 --> 00:57:38,107 Speaker 3: I reckon there might have been some players who did. 1073 00:57:40,107 --> 00:57:42,907 Speaker 3: I think they should have been kicked out. One twenty 1074 00:57:42,947 --> 00:57:44,267 Speaker 3: four News talks they'd be back after. 1075 00:57:44,187 --> 00:57:47,947 Speaker 1: This the tough questions off the turf weekends for It 1076 00:57:48,227 --> 00:57:52,187 Speaker 1: with Jason Paine and GJ. Gunnerholmes, New Zealand's most trusted 1077 00:57:52,227 --> 00:57:52,747 Speaker 1: home builder. 1078 00:57:54,267 --> 00:57:57,547 Speaker 3: One twenty six heap through on text text here it's soccer. 1079 00:57:59,307 --> 00:58:02,067 Speaker 3: I love it. I love a good soccer V football debate. 1080 00:58:03,067 --> 00:58:06,587 Speaker 3: Hello Praven, great, thank you. 1081 00:58:07,747 --> 00:58:11,067 Speaker 20: Yeah, I've got my views on this Canadian team. I 1082 00:58:11,307 --> 00:58:14,267 Speaker 20: don't think the players should be penalized. I think that 1083 00:58:14,507 --> 00:58:18,227 Speaker 20: enough for the coaches. You've played the fine and the 1084 00:58:18,307 --> 00:58:21,747 Speaker 20: coaches are doing the time. Those guys actually work four 1085 00:58:21,867 --> 00:58:24,227 Speaker 20: years really hard to actually get where they are kind 1086 00:58:24,227 --> 00:58:26,987 Speaker 20: of the and I don't think that players should be 1087 00:58:27,187 --> 00:58:28,707 Speaker 20: penalized for their hard work. 1088 00:58:29,867 --> 00:58:33,467 Speaker 3: I sympathize with that view, Privein, I really do. And 1089 00:58:33,907 --> 00:58:36,387 Speaker 3: you know, a big part of me, when I said 1090 00:58:36,427 --> 00:58:38,867 Speaker 3: before I think they should be kicked out sort of 1091 00:58:38,907 --> 00:58:41,067 Speaker 3: felt a little bit icky about saying it for that 1092 00:58:41,347 --> 00:58:44,347 Speaker 3: very reason that you're bringing up, because there are people here, 1093 00:58:44,427 --> 00:58:47,107 Speaker 3: I'm sure who are victims within the Canadian side as well. 1094 00:58:47,187 --> 00:58:50,467 Speaker 3: But it feels to me as though you can't just 1095 00:58:50,587 --> 00:58:53,507 Speaker 3: punish half of an organization, if you know what I mean. 1096 00:58:54,747 --> 00:58:58,067 Speaker 20: Yeah, but the thing is you have to be careful. 1097 00:58:59,627 --> 00:59:04,147 Speaker 20: It's like in a classroom, if one could, if the 1098 00:59:04,227 --> 00:59:07,387 Speaker 20: principal player plays up, we get of all the all 1099 00:59:07,467 --> 00:59:10,547 Speaker 20: the kids out of the classroom. So it's it's a 1100 00:59:10,627 --> 00:59:12,987 Speaker 20: catch twenty two. We got to be careful where we go. 1101 00:59:13,107 --> 00:59:16,027 Speaker 3: With the same Yeah, No, that's that's a good, good analogy. 1102 00:59:16,187 --> 00:59:18,907 Speaker 3: That's a good I guess. I mean, like I said before, 1103 00:59:18,947 --> 00:59:22,947 Speaker 3: proving you know, sports teams are always all about togetherness, 1104 00:59:22,987 --> 00:59:25,427 Speaker 3: aren't they. You know, they went together, they lose together. 1105 00:59:25,467 --> 00:59:28,987 Speaker 3: I know this is different because it's illegality, but look, 1106 00:59:28,987 --> 00:59:30,347 Speaker 3: I take your point and if I was, if I 1107 00:59:30,467 --> 00:59:33,467 Speaker 3: was one of those players, I'd be absolutely gutted, absolutely 1108 00:59:33,467 --> 00:59:34,787 Speaker 3: gut especially if I didn't know. 1109 00:59:35,107 --> 00:59:38,587 Speaker 20: If I didn't know, just have a look at what 1110 00:59:39,027 --> 00:59:42,107 Speaker 20: the referee done to all blacks in the last World 1111 00:59:42,147 --> 00:59:42,707 Speaker 20: Cup finals. 1112 00:59:45,627 --> 00:59:47,827 Speaker 3: There was a that was a swift change of subjects. 1113 00:59:47,947 --> 00:59:52,987 Speaker 20: Puffy, you think about all those you know, no one 1114 00:59:53,067 --> 00:59:55,747 Speaker 20: got penalized for that. You know, we we took it 1115 00:59:55,867 --> 00:59:58,547 Speaker 20: on the chin, and I think the next World Cup 1116 00:59:58,587 --> 00:59:59,867 Speaker 20: will be a better team kind of thing. 1117 01:00:00,107 --> 01:00:03,107 Speaker 8: Good, we played a better, better game. 1118 01:00:03,547 --> 01:00:06,187 Speaker 20: But the thing is, I still don't think that, you know, 1119 01:00:06,427 --> 01:00:09,587 Speaker 20: taking three points of those girls, or taking six minus 1120 01:00:09,627 --> 01:00:13,467 Speaker 20: six for a start, that is very harsh. I think 1121 01:00:13,507 --> 01:00:15,187 Speaker 20: they should have called the game with the fairs game 1122 01:00:15,267 --> 01:00:17,707 Speaker 20: of draw and give it given one points to or 1123 01:00:17,787 --> 01:00:20,467 Speaker 20: even give three points to q Gills, one to the 1124 01:00:21,427 --> 01:00:23,867 Speaker 20: to the Canadian and then the second round we go 1125 01:00:23,987 --> 01:00:24,827 Speaker 20: from there. Kind of thing. 1126 01:00:25,147 --> 01:00:28,427 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I've never heard of it proven actually in 1127 01:00:28,507 --> 01:00:30,747 Speaker 3: a tournament situation like this where you've got such a 1128 01:00:30,827 --> 01:00:34,827 Speaker 3: limited time to game points, you know, and Dylan even said, 1129 01:00:34,867 --> 01:00:37,187 Speaker 3: you know, you look at Everton and Nottingham Forest in 1130 01:00:37,187 --> 01:00:39,147 Speaker 3: the latest Premier League season. They were docked points for 1131 01:00:39,427 --> 01:00:41,587 Speaker 3: for breaking financial fair play rules, but they had a 1132 01:00:41,627 --> 01:00:43,787 Speaker 3: thirty eight game season to make up the make up 1133 01:00:43,827 --> 01:00:46,507 Speaker 3: the difference, and both of them did. But when you've 1134 01:00:46,547 --> 01:00:49,147 Speaker 3: only got three games and your minus six at the start, 1135 01:00:49,627 --> 01:00:53,707 Speaker 3: the most you can get to is three again, you know, 1136 01:00:53,827 --> 01:00:56,787 Speaker 3: it's some Some would say, actually, you've got off lightly 1137 01:00:57,467 --> 01:00:59,747 Speaker 3: great to chatty praving, thanks for calling, and mate, oh 1138 01:00:59,787 --> 01:01:02,027 Speaker 3: eight hundred and eighty ten eighty is our number, hello Andrew? 1139 01:01:03,587 --> 01:01:06,027 Speaker 21: Oh hi, Hey, if one player knew, then they should 1140 01:01:06,067 --> 01:01:09,827 Speaker 21: be done the points. But my real question is why 1141 01:01:10,187 --> 01:01:12,427 Speaker 21: why were they film in New Zealand and they're not 1142 01:01:12,547 --> 01:01:15,867 Speaker 21: seeing how useless New Zealand women's teams are. I mean, 1143 01:01:15,907 --> 01:01:18,947 Speaker 21: they're just not terrible, They're terrible, so I couldn't imagine 1144 01:01:18,947 --> 01:01:21,347 Speaker 21: why they even needed to bother filming them. 1145 01:01:21,747 --> 01:01:24,067 Speaker 3: Andrew, what I reckon and I don't know this to 1146 01:01:24,147 --> 01:01:27,667 Speaker 3: be true, but what I reckon is that they've been 1147 01:01:27,707 --> 01:01:29,227 Speaker 3: doing it for every team they play. 1148 01:01:30,627 --> 01:01:35,187 Speaker 21: Ah, yes, okay, yeah, no, I get that now, because 1149 01:01:35,627 --> 01:01:37,627 Speaker 21: they could just watch film when you seland and not 1150 01:01:37,787 --> 01:01:40,307 Speaker 21: be scared at all. You know, I was surprised there 1151 01:01:40,387 --> 01:01:41,467 Speaker 21: was two one to be honest. 1152 01:01:41,787 --> 01:01:45,347 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I'd be doing it for everyone, right Yeah. 1153 01:01:45,307 --> 01:01:48,107 Speaker 21: Yeah, they're definitely, but it's so proof of that. They 1154 01:01:48,147 --> 01:01:52,147 Speaker 21: wouldn't be sitting there thinking New Zealand so good and 1155 01:01:52,227 --> 01:01:52,507 Speaker 21: we're so. 1156 01:01:52,627 --> 01:01:53,347 Speaker 8: Worried about them. 1157 01:01:53,387 --> 01:01:54,987 Speaker 21: You're right that we're going to film them. 1158 01:01:55,347 --> 01:01:57,427 Speaker 13: That's that's not something you do, No, Andrew. 1159 01:01:57,427 --> 01:01:59,347 Speaker 3: I agree. If they were going to if they looked 1160 01:01:59,347 --> 01:02:02,707 Speaker 3: at their group and said, right, Columbia, France, New Zealand, 1161 01:02:02,747 --> 01:02:05,187 Speaker 3: we've got one chance to spy who were going to choose, 1162 01:02:05,187 --> 01:02:08,667 Speaker 3: they wouldn't choose us, right Yeah. 1163 01:02:08,747 --> 01:02:13,787 Speaker 21: So anyway, I didn't play. I knew about it, and 1164 01:02:13,907 --> 01:02:16,147 Speaker 21: that should be if it was just the coaches, but 1165 01:02:16,267 --> 01:02:19,707 Speaker 21: then that would influence the coaches' direction to the players. 1166 01:02:19,747 --> 01:02:21,507 Speaker 21: So yeah, they should be even if they didn't tell 1167 01:02:21,547 --> 01:02:24,667 Speaker 21: the players, there should be doctor points just for stupidity. 1168 01:02:26,067 --> 01:02:29,507 Speaker 3: That's right, You've been stupid here, so they stay the points. 1169 01:02:29,587 --> 01:02:29,787 Speaker 8: Nine. 1170 01:02:29,947 --> 01:02:31,907 Speaker 3: Sorry, I wasn't big Forastial said, A good point you make, 1171 01:02:32,547 --> 01:02:34,747 Speaker 3: and I honestly do think that this isn't the one off. 1172 01:02:35,387 --> 01:02:37,067 Speaker 3: I just think this is the first time they've been caught. 1173 01:02:37,827 --> 01:02:39,787 Speaker 3: All the all the rhetoric I've seen in the last 1174 01:02:39,787 --> 01:02:43,707 Speaker 3: little while is that they've been doing this for ages. Hello, Richard. 1175 01:02:45,387 --> 01:02:47,987 Speaker 14: Piney. I don't think there's any doubt they should have 1176 01:02:48,027 --> 01:02:52,747 Speaker 14: been kicked out. Just to imagine, if the coach of 1177 01:02:53,147 --> 01:02:58,627 Speaker 14: the Jamaican four by one RelA team had been discovered 1178 01:02:58,667 --> 01:03:01,067 Speaker 14: that he'd been giving steroids to one of his runners 1179 01:03:01,827 --> 01:03:04,107 Speaker 14: on the day before of the final of the four 1180 01:03:04,147 --> 01:03:07,147 Speaker 14: by his relay, you reckon they get that get kept 1181 01:03:07,227 --> 01:03:09,547 Speaker 14: kicked out. Of course they would. And if you want 1182 01:03:09,587 --> 01:03:12,307 Speaker 14: to know why, you go back to the greatest French 1183 01:03:12,507 --> 01:03:17,747 Speaker 14: sporting team of all, the Three Musketeers, and what was 1184 01:03:17,787 --> 01:03:18,307 Speaker 14: their motto? 1185 01:03:19,427 --> 01:03:20,547 Speaker 20: All for one and one for all. 1186 01:03:20,587 --> 01:03:22,547 Speaker 14: And that's what happens when you're in a team. If 1187 01:03:22,587 --> 01:03:26,667 Speaker 14: somebody in the team screws up, the whole team takes 1188 01:03:26,707 --> 01:03:29,107 Speaker 14: the penalty. And that's why Canada should have been booted. 1189 01:03:29,307 --> 01:03:31,707 Speaker 14: And it's got nothing to do with Oh, the players 1190 01:03:31,787 --> 01:03:36,027 Speaker 14: didn't know, that's irrelevant. The players got the advantage from it. 1191 01:03:37,347 --> 01:03:39,787 Speaker 3: That's actually a really good analogy you use, Richard. You 1192 01:03:39,827 --> 01:03:43,187 Speaker 3: know two forms of cheating, and you know in a 1193 01:03:43,667 --> 01:03:47,747 Speaker 3: relay team, so the coach says to the anchor league bloke, 1194 01:03:48,027 --> 01:03:50,267 Speaker 3: are you you know have some of this? The other 1195 01:03:50,347 --> 01:03:53,427 Speaker 3: three don't know. They just think they makes really fast. 1196 01:03:53,467 --> 01:03:56,827 Speaker 3: So yeah, the whole team should go. You're right, absolutely. 1197 01:03:58,067 --> 01:04:01,227 Speaker 14: I don't see why it's even being debated, and I 1198 01:04:01,387 --> 01:04:05,707 Speaker 14: can't believe that Canada are appealing it. They should shut up, 1199 01:04:06,507 --> 01:04:08,347 Speaker 14: they need us and then get away and vow to 1200 01:04:08,427 --> 01:04:08,907 Speaker 14: do better. 1201 01:04:10,867 --> 01:04:13,547 Speaker 3: Good point, well made, Richard, Thank you, mate. Drive safe. 1202 01:04:14,547 --> 01:04:16,467 Speaker 3: I got to move because I want to I want 1203 01:04:16,507 --> 01:04:20,427 Speaker 3: to preview the basketball. Quick question though, from Mark on 1204 01:04:20,507 --> 01:04:23,467 Speaker 3: the drone? Mark, what's your question about the drone? Here 1205 01:04:23,507 --> 01:04:24,747 Speaker 3: we're going, buddy, Well, I got two. 1206 01:04:24,787 --> 01:04:27,867 Speaker 18: Actually, the caller just before calling the New Zealand soccer 1207 01:04:27,947 --> 01:04:30,547 Speaker 18: team useless, mate. If they were useless, they wouldn't be 1208 01:04:30,587 --> 01:04:31,227 Speaker 18: at the Olympics. 1209 01:04:31,267 --> 01:04:33,627 Speaker 9: So maybe he wants to rethink his wording. 1210 01:04:35,507 --> 01:04:36,187 Speaker 8: On the drone. 1211 01:04:36,747 --> 01:04:38,267 Speaker 3: Where did the drone come from? 1212 01:04:38,507 --> 01:04:40,667 Speaker 21: Did they bring it in themselves or do they buy 1213 01:04:40,707 --> 01:04:42,747 Speaker 21: it in France? And if they did bring it in, 1214 01:04:43,147 --> 01:04:44,187 Speaker 21: why were they allowed to? 1215 01:04:44,507 --> 01:04:47,067 Speaker 3: I know drones are used by every team for their 1216 01:04:47,107 --> 01:04:50,347 Speaker 3: own sessions. Mark the All Blacks use them, The Phoenix 1217 01:04:50,467 --> 01:04:53,907 Speaker 3: used them, Every professional club used as a drone. You're 1218 01:04:53,987 --> 01:04:56,147 Speaker 3: just not supposed to spy on other people with it. 1219 01:04:57,467 --> 01:05:00,027 Speaker 18: Okay, all right, Yeah, I just wondered where it came from. 1220 01:05:00,107 --> 01:05:01,787 Speaker 3: That was all Yeah, I'm pretty sure it came in 1221 01:05:01,907 --> 01:05:06,227 Speaker 3: with them, and it's allowed. In fact, the I saw 1222 01:05:06,467 --> 01:05:11,467 Speaker 3: this thing actually the recruitment ad for one of the 1223 01:05:11,507 --> 01:05:14,747 Speaker 3: Canadian assistant coaches, and some of the skills that you 1224 01:05:14,827 --> 01:05:17,947 Speaker 3: needed one was being able to fly drone, not to 1225 01:05:18,027 --> 01:05:20,667 Speaker 3: film other people, to film your own sessions. It's common, 1226 01:05:20,907 --> 01:05:24,907 Speaker 3: really ready common news talks here beat twenty six to 1227 01:05:24,987 --> 01:05:27,707 Speaker 3: two the Cells NBL finals this afternoon. This is the 1228 01:05:27,787 --> 01:05:31,027 Speaker 3: National Basketball League Cannavary Rams Auckland to a TATA tip 1229 01:05:31,107 --> 01:05:35,747 Speaker 3: off two thirty Cows Stadium, christ Church. Justin Nelson has 1230 01:05:35,827 --> 01:05:37,907 Speaker 3: the call on Sky. He joins us, Now, Justin, have 1231 01:05:37,987 --> 01:05:40,987 Speaker 3: we got the Sorry, I just had to put you 1232 01:05:41,067 --> 01:05:43,427 Speaker 3: on the air. Have we got the best two teams 1233 01:05:43,667 --> 01:05:44,187 Speaker 3: in the final? 1234 01:05:45,467 --> 01:05:47,867 Speaker 17: Yeah, I definitely think we have. They finished one and two. 1235 01:05:48,107 --> 01:05:50,707 Speaker 17: Of course, the Rams went on that sixteen game winning 1236 01:05:50,787 --> 01:05:51,947 Speaker 17: streak through the season. 1237 01:05:52,027 --> 01:05:53,067 Speaker 8: The Tuatara had. 1238 01:05:52,907 --> 01:05:56,107 Speaker 17: A ten game winning streak. Definitely the best two teams 1239 01:05:56,187 --> 01:05:59,707 Speaker 17: and not surprisingly given the way they've built their rosters 1240 01:05:59,747 --> 01:06:01,947 Speaker 17: over the last couple of years. We have a back 1241 01:06:01,987 --> 01:06:04,027 Speaker 17: to back Grand Final rematch. 1242 01:06:04,467 --> 01:06:07,067 Speaker 3: Who are the favorites? Then this afternoon justin. 1243 01:06:07,547 --> 01:06:08,827 Speaker 8: Well, Rams will start favorites. 1244 01:06:08,867 --> 01:06:10,907 Speaker 17: I mean, they're on their home deck. They've had a 1245 01:06:10,987 --> 01:06:14,107 Speaker 17: really good record at Cal's Stadium over the last couple 1246 01:06:14,147 --> 01:06:17,107 Speaker 17: of years. Interestingly, though, they did lose to the tour 1247 01:06:17,147 --> 01:06:20,987 Speaker 17: Atara earlier this season at Cowl Stadium. That was the 1248 01:06:21,107 --> 01:06:24,667 Speaker 17: game when the Tuatara came out and put together a 1249 01:06:24,787 --> 01:06:28,147 Speaker 17: forty seven point second quarter to go on and take 1250 01:06:28,147 --> 01:06:31,187 Speaker 17: the win. However, the Rams on that day didn't have 1251 01:06:31,307 --> 01:06:34,387 Speaker 17: Lucky Old Brick MVP of the league this season, and 1252 01:06:34,667 --> 01:06:38,507 Speaker 17: didn't have star import kJ Buff and both of those 1253 01:06:38,587 --> 01:06:40,147 Speaker 17: players will be running around today. 1254 01:06:40,627 --> 01:06:43,587 Speaker 3: That's an outlier, though. Wasn't that a forty seven point quarter? 1255 01:06:45,107 --> 01:06:45,307 Speaker 8: Yeah? 1256 01:06:45,387 --> 01:06:45,667 Speaker 2: It is. 1257 01:06:45,787 --> 01:06:47,867 Speaker 17: You don't often see it. I think for memory. They 1258 01:06:47,947 --> 01:06:51,227 Speaker 17: hit something like nineteen of twenty one shots from the field, 1259 01:06:51,347 --> 01:06:54,467 Speaker 17: and you know, Corey Webs to rob Low, Tom Danovich, 1260 01:06:54,547 --> 01:06:58,947 Speaker 17: they just all fired and caught I suppose caught the 1261 01:06:59,027 --> 01:07:02,707 Speaker 17: Rams off guard at that particular time, and it's one 1262 01:07:02,747 --> 01:07:05,547 Speaker 17: of those quarters in basketball that you just dream of. 1263 01:07:06,027 --> 01:07:08,947 Speaker 3: This season has thrown up so many different storylines and 1264 01:07:09,027 --> 01:07:11,587 Speaker 3: we almost had another one when the Tananhaky Airs were 1265 01:07:11,627 --> 01:07:14,267 Speaker 3: at cal Stadium a week or so ago against the 1266 01:07:14,307 --> 01:07:16,707 Speaker 3: Canterbury Rams. W what do we go to? Two periods 1267 01:07:16,747 --> 01:07:17,827 Speaker 3: of overtime justin. 1268 01:07:19,027 --> 01:07:19,627 Speaker 8: Yeah, it was. 1269 01:07:21,267 --> 01:07:23,027 Speaker 17: The best game I've seen since I've been in New 1270 01:07:23,107 --> 01:07:26,787 Speaker 17: Zealand and speaking to people across the competition, remembering the 1271 01:07:26,907 --> 01:07:29,587 Speaker 17: Sales NBL has been going for forty three years, lots 1272 01:07:29,627 --> 01:07:31,867 Speaker 17: of people saying this is the best game they've ever 1273 01:07:31,947 --> 01:07:35,307 Speaker 17: seen in the history of the competition, which is quite 1274 01:07:35,387 --> 01:07:38,067 Speaker 17: some sort of statement. But it was an amazing game, 1275 01:07:38,147 --> 01:07:40,587 Speaker 17: double overtime and it went right down to the way 1276 01:07:40,747 --> 01:07:44,267 Speaker 17: a one point victory for the Rams. The other semifinal 1277 01:07:44,467 --> 01:07:45,787 Speaker 17: was a three point win. 1278 01:07:46,147 --> 01:07:47,467 Speaker 8: For the Tultara over the ball. 1279 01:07:47,547 --> 01:07:51,827 Speaker 17: So across two semi finals collectively, four points separating those 1280 01:07:51,907 --> 01:07:53,987 Speaker 17: top four teams. And if we have a grand final 1281 01:07:54,107 --> 01:07:55,467 Speaker 17: like that today, we'll be pretty happy. 1282 01:07:55,667 --> 01:07:57,907 Speaker 3: Yeah, let's hope we get something similar. Just on the 1283 01:07:57,907 --> 01:08:00,307 Speaker 3: Canterbury Rams, and you mentioned that incredible unbeaten run that 1284 01:08:00,347 --> 01:08:02,227 Speaker 3: they went on, or that winning run that they went on. 1285 01:08:02,587 --> 01:08:05,187 Speaker 3: What were the main planks of that? Why were they 1286 01:08:05,307 --> 01:08:06,147 Speaker 3: so consistent? 1287 01:08:07,547 --> 01:08:10,467 Speaker 17: Well, they've got this outstanding young center. This Australian out 1288 01:08:10,507 --> 01:08:13,587 Speaker 17: of Adelaide plays at the Illawarra Hawks and the Aussie NBL. 1289 01:08:13,707 --> 01:08:16,667 Speaker 17: Twenty years of age. He since now gone on and 1290 01:08:16,787 --> 01:08:20,987 Speaker 17: won the MVP of the competition Most Outstanding Young Player 1291 01:08:21,067 --> 01:08:23,467 Speaker 17: Youth Player of the Year. A lot of people are 1292 01:08:23,507 --> 01:08:26,907 Speaker 17: talking about Locky Oldbrick as a future NBA player. He's 1293 01:08:26,987 --> 01:08:29,467 Speaker 17: certainly got the star quality and I think we're going 1294 01:08:29,507 --> 01:08:32,267 Speaker 17: to be looking back in future years and remembering the 1295 01:08:32,427 --> 01:08:35,667 Speaker 17: year that Locky Oldbrick had playing here in New Zealand. 1296 01:08:35,707 --> 01:08:38,827 Speaker 17: He's an absolute superstar. He is the key to the 1297 01:08:38,987 --> 01:08:43,187 Speaker 17: Rams today, along with Captain Taylor Britt point guard, Most 1298 01:08:43,267 --> 01:08:46,027 Speaker 17: Improved Player All Star five this year. He's had an 1299 01:08:46,027 --> 01:08:51,627 Speaker 17: outstanding season. But they do have some very experienced players 1300 01:08:51,667 --> 01:08:53,747 Speaker 17: that they're going up against. For the Tuatara who have 1301 01:08:53,907 --> 01:08:55,867 Speaker 17: a star started starting five. 1302 01:08:55,947 --> 01:08:57,267 Speaker 3: I want to get to them in a sec. But 1303 01:08:57,627 --> 01:09:00,547 Speaker 3: Col's Stadium that's where we are this afternoon. How much 1304 01:09:00,667 --> 01:09:04,027 Speaker 3: of an advantage is home advantage for the Rams? 1305 01:09:05,187 --> 01:09:08,187 Speaker 17: Of course, the Sales has gone back to home finals 1306 01:09:08,227 --> 01:09:10,667 Speaker 17: this year. First time in over a decade. It used 1307 01:09:10,707 --> 01:09:13,387 Speaker 17: to all be at one location, and the fans have 1308 01:09:13,507 --> 01:09:16,467 Speaker 17: certainly turned out. What we do know about cald Stadium, 1309 01:09:16,507 --> 01:09:19,427 Speaker 17: it's an old stadium, it's got a lot of history, 1310 01:09:19,467 --> 01:09:21,187 Speaker 17: but it's a cauldron, so it's going to. 1311 01:09:21,187 --> 01:09:24,307 Speaker 8: Be absolutely chock. A block today. 1312 01:09:24,267 --> 01:09:26,747 Speaker 17: Filled with Rams fans will make a lot of noise. 1313 01:09:27,107 --> 01:09:28,987 Speaker 17: And if you're looking for a six man, a six 1314 01:09:29,107 --> 01:09:31,427 Speaker 17: player to get you up over the line, you certainly 1315 01:09:31,467 --> 01:09:33,067 Speaker 17: wanted to be your home fans, and I think we'll 1316 01:09:33,067 --> 01:09:33,667 Speaker 17: get that today. 1317 01:09:33,987 --> 01:09:36,267 Speaker 3: Let's go to the Tourtata. Then you're right about their 1318 01:09:36,587 --> 01:09:40,667 Speaker 3: starting five being all Star, Cam Glidden, Corey Webster, Rubin Todagi, 1319 01:09:40,787 --> 01:09:44,147 Speaker 3: Rob Low, Tom Verdanovitch. I can't believe that their team 1320 01:09:44,227 --> 01:09:44,867 Speaker 3: is in favorite. 1321 01:09:46,547 --> 01:09:49,387 Speaker 17: Yeah, well, I think they go in with high credentials obviously. 1322 01:09:49,427 --> 01:09:52,467 Speaker 17: I mean this team is loaded with experience. As you said, 1323 01:09:52,547 --> 01:09:55,347 Speaker 17: Corey Webster, they win today. Corey Webster is a five 1324 01:09:55,507 --> 01:10:00,187 Speaker 17: time Sales NBL champion. Amazingly, his fourth title was playing 1325 01:10:00,227 --> 01:10:03,387 Speaker 17: for the Rams last year against the Tuatara, so he's 1326 01:10:03,427 --> 01:10:06,867 Speaker 17: got the chance to turn things around. Rob Low is 1327 01:10:07,347 --> 01:10:10,427 Speaker 17: an MVP. He's a defensive Player of the Year two time. 1328 01:10:10,907 --> 01:10:13,587 Speaker 17: He's a star in his own right. Cam Gliddon. Of course, 1329 01:10:13,667 --> 01:10:18,347 Speaker 17: the Australian Ruben Talangy has just signed another Ossie NBL contract, 1330 01:10:19,027 --> 01:10:22,827 Speaker 17: And of course you know Tom Vedanovich is just an 1331 01:10:22,907 --> 01:10:26,107 Speaker 17: absolute powerhouse. He brings the muscle. If those five players 1332 01:10:26,187 --> 01:10:29,347 Speaker 17: turn up today and do what they do, this team 1333 01:10:29,387 --> 01:10:31,507 Speaker 17: will go on and celebrate their first championship. 1334 01:10:31,667 --> 01:10:34,267 Speaker 3: There's so much attacking weaponry in both sides justin But 1335 01:10:34,467 --> 01:10:36,547 Speaker 3: you know they often say, and it's a cliche, defense 1336 01:10:36,587 --> 01:10:39,747 Speaker 3: wins championships, but what about grand finals? Does defense win 1337 01:10:40,187 --> 01:10:42,067 Speaker 3: grand finals? Or are we looking Are we looking at 1338 01:10:42,107 --> 01:10:44,667 Speaker 3: a at a one ten to one oh eight game 1339 01:10:44,907 --> 01:10:47,427 Speaker 3: or an eighty to seventy eight game here this afternoon? 1340 01:10:47,907 --> 01:10:50,787 Speaker 8: Yeah, I think probably the ladder. These also are the 1341 01:10:50,907 --> 01:10:51,827 Speaker 8: two best. 1342 01:10:51,747 --> 01:10:55,747 Speaker 17: Defensive teams in the competition, so they bring that quality 1343 01:10:55,947 --> 01:10:58,547 Speaker 17: with them. I think the ladder wouldn't surprise me if 1344 01:10:58,627 --> 01:11:02,027 Speaker 17: it's if it's under one hundred that gets the win 1345 01:11:02,187 --> 01:11:05,987 Speaker 17: here today. You can't tell though. I mean Tuatara step 1346 01:11:06,067 --> 01:11:08,347 Speaker 17: out in a forty seven point second quarter lock they 1347 01:11:08,387 --> 01:11:10,747 Speaker 17: did last time they were in christ Church, all of 1348 01:11:10,787 --> 01:11:12,027 Speaker 17: a sudden it blows the lid off. 1349 01:11:12,707 --> 01:11:14,387 Speaker 3: And if we zoom out from the Grand Final and 1350 01:11:14,467 --> 01:11:17,027 Speaker 3: look at the Sales NBL season as a whole. How 1351 01:11:17,067 --> 01:11:20,067 Speaker 3: would you rated in terms of, you know, the usual metrics, 1352 01:11:20,587 --> 01:11:24,707 Speaker 3: fan engagement, exciting games, are competitive league, that sort of thing. 1353 01:11:25,427 --> 01:11:27,267 Speaker 17: Yeah, it keeps getting better and better, doesn't it. And 1354 01:11:27,307 --> 01:11:29,347 Speaker 17: you know, you talk about the competitiveness. We've just spoken 1355 01:11:29,347 --> 01:11:32,467 Speaker 17: about the semi finals and how close they were. You 1356 01:11:32,547 --> 01:11:35,827 Speaker 17: think crowds. You know, the Giants sold out just about 1357 01:11:35,867 --> 01:11:38,147 Speaker 17: every game, the Rams sell out just about every game, 1358 01:11:38,227 --> 01:11:40,987 Speaker 17: The Saints do the same, the Twotara. You know, Auckland's 1359 01:11:41,027 --> 01:11:44,427 Speaker 17: been a real struggle ground for the Sales NBL for decades. 1360 01:11:44,467 --> 01:11:46,627 Speaker 17: I think they sold out seven of their ten games. 1361 01:11:46,707 --> 01:11:49,307 Speaker 17: So we're seeing an increase in the fandom up and 1362 01:11:49,387 --> 01:11:51,947 Speaker 17: down the country. We know the attachment or the love 1363 01:11:51,987 --> 01:11:55,867 Speaker 17: affair that kids have with basketball in particular. They're coming 1364 01:11:55,947 --> 01:11:59,107 Speaker 17: out in big numbers, and look, when every game is 1365 01:11:59,307 --> 01:12:01,587 Speaker 17: live on TV, it certainly helps. But I think the 1366 01:12:01,707 --> 01:12:04,147 Speaker 17: thing that we will look back on in twenty twenty 1367 01:12:04,187 --> 01:12:07,627 Speaker 17: four as being a real catalyst for that love and 1368 01:12:07,787 --> 01:12:11,027 Speaker 17: connection the community has with this game and the Celles 1369 01:12:11,107 --> 01:12:14,987 Speaker 17: MBL rapidly has obviously been a massive success, and I 1370 01:12:15,107 --> 01:12:17,267 Speaker 17: think that's got a big path to play going forward. 1371 01:12:17,547 --> 01:12:19,827 Speaker 3: All right, who edges it this afternoon for you. 1372 01:12:21,907 --> 01:12:25,027 Speaker 17: Rand start favorites. There's absolutely no question. But if the 1373 01:12:25,107 --> 01:12:28,067 Speaker 17: Tuatara lose today in the forty three year history of 1374 01:12:28,107 --> 01:12:30,147 Speaker 17: the league, they will be the first ever team to 1375 01:12:30,307 --> 01:12:35,027 Speaker 17: lose three consecutive grand finals. I can't see it happening. 1376 01:12:35,107 --> 01:12:36,387 Speaker 17: I think the Aucklanders get up. 1377 01:12:36,667 --> 01:12:38,867 Speaker 3: Great to chat, Justin, have an awesome call this afternoon. 1378 01:12:39,427 --> 01:12:39,707 Speaker 17: Cheers. 1379 01:12:39,787 --> 01:12:43,587 Speaker 3: Thanks Justin Nelson there, skysport basketball commentator rams to a 1380 01:12:43,667 --> 01:12:46,147 Speaker 3: tarta this afternoon.

What is it like there? Can 1410 01:14:13,187 --> 01:14:14,867 Speaker 3: you can you give us an idea of the feel 1411 01:14:14,907 --> 01:14:15,427 Speaker 3: of the city. 1412 01:14:18,507 --> 01:14:21,547 Speaker 22: I can I can tell Paris is let's just say 1413 01:14:21,627 --> 01:14:25,987 Speaker 22: cautiously or slowly buzzing. It really came to life tonight 1414 01:14:26,587 --> 01:14:31,187 Speaker 22: when you saw Antoine DuPont leading this the French sevens 1415 01:14:31,267 --> 01:14:34,307 Speaker 22: team to the gold medal victory over Fiji in the final, 1416 01:14:34,947 --> 01:14:38,227 Speaker 22: and I was in a restaurant where you know, they 1417 01:14:38,267 --> 01:14:42,627 Speaker 22: were all the French were going completely nuts loving that moment, 1418 01:14:42,787 --> 01:14:46,067 Speaker 22: and and it was it was it was really special. 1419 01:14:46,147 --> 01:14:49,147 Speaker 22: I guess for DuPont because you know, he got injured, 1420 01:14:49,187 --> 01:14:51,067 Speaker 22: he had to wear a mask in the Rugby World Cup, 1421 01:14:51,587 --> 01:14:54,667 Speaker 22: and he's he came along to the sevens team and 1422 01:14:55,387 --> 01:14:57,467 Speaker 22: you know he doesn't always start games, but I'll tell 1423 01:14:57,467 --> 01:15:00,027 Speaker 22: you what, he finishes them, and he was impressive. So 1424 01:15:00,627 --> 01:15:05,427 Speaker 22: I'd say the mood on on the street is pride 1425 01:15:05,747 --> 01:15:09,827 Speaker 22: and and they're also buzzing about the opening ceremony. 1426 01:15:09,907 --> 01:15:10,787 Speaker 5: Did you see it, Piney? 1427 01:15:11,507 --> 01:15:14,187 Speaker 3: Yes, I saw bits of it, and I was very 1428 01:15:14,307 --> 01:15:17,547 Speaker 3: keen to get your thoughts because you know, I kind 1429 01:15:17,587 --> 01:15:20,187 Speaker 3: of tend to look at these things through a traditional eye, 1430 01:15:20,507 --> 01:15:22,747 Speaker 3: whereas you you seem to, you know, think outside the 1431 01:15:22,787 --> 01:15:24,547 Speaker 3: square a little bit, look at things from a different 1432 01:15:24,587 --> 01:15:27,627 Speaker 3: angle and in a different way. What did you think 1433 01:15:27,667 --> 01:15:27,827 Speaker 3: of it? 1434 01:15:30,627 --> 01:15:32,387 Speaker 5: Overall? I think it worked right. 1435 01:15:32,547 --> 01:15:35,347 Speaker 22: So I think you know that the opening ceremony is 1436 01:15:35,387 --> 01:15:40,427 Speaker 22: about showcasing a nation and its history, and really frant 1437 01:15:40,507 --> 01:15:43,707 Speaker 22: sort of nailed that, nailed the brief. You know, there 1438 01:15:43,747 --> 01:15:45,387 Speaker 22: are a couple of moments that you could probably give, 1439 01:15:45,707 --> 01:15:49,587 Speaker 22: you know, take or leave. And also I think I 1440 01:15:49,667 --> 01:15:52,547 Speaker 22: always felt sorry for some of the dancers just going, 1441 01:15:53,227 --> 01:15:55,427 Speaker 22: you know, dancing their hearts out and they get zero 1442 01:15:55,507 --> 01:15:58,387 Speaker 22: point five seconds on camera and then they just have. 1443 01:15:58,547 --> 01:16:03,427 Speaker 5: Some aerial shot of the river, you know. 1444 01:16:03,467 --> 01:16:07,627 Speaker 22: I like, I'm like, Okay, they're cut away from that 1445 01:16:07,787 --> 01:16:11,787 Speaker 22: person who's really giving it. Theyre all But I thought 1446 01:16:11,827 --> 01:16:14,507 Speaker 22: the start was really special. And my French friends, I 1447 01:16:14,627 --> 01:16:17,347 Speaker 22: was talking to one of them, she said that her 1448 01:16:17,547 --> 01:16:21,547 Speaker 22: and her partner and her boyfriend were in tears. They 1449 01:16:21,587 --> 01:16:24,227 Speaker 22: were just so emotional about it because they really felt 1450 01:16:24,827 --> 01:16:28,667 Speaker 22: represented France in the most positive way. And that was 1451 01:16:29,227 --> 01:16:31,987 Speaker 22: I mean, I think if everyone out there hasn't seen it, 1452 01:16:32,107 --> 01:16:33,507 Speaker 22: that the start was epic. 1453 01:16:34,387 --> 01:16:35,787 Speaker 5: A heavy metal band. 1454 01:16:37,667 --> 01:16:41,387 Speaker 22: Basically all members of the band outside of a massive palace, 1455 01:16:41,947 --> 01:16:46,387 Speaker 22: out of different windows, while there's a Marie Antoinette is 1456 01:16:46,467 --> 01:16:49,907 Speaker 22: carrying her own head and the head is singing, and 1457 01:16:51,307 --> 01:16:54,707 Speaker 22: you just can't yet a more epic start to something 1458 01:16:54,787 --> 01:16:57,627 Speaker 22: than that. So I actually thought that was great, and 1459 01:16:57,667 --> 01:17:01,187 Speaker 22: I actually thought the end was great. From when they 1460 01:17:01,267 --> 01:17:05,947 Speaker 22: had these acrobats playing different acrobats, I understand playing the 1461 01:17:06,027 --> 01:17:09,907 Speaker 22: one character it was masked and doing flips with the 1462 01:17:09,947 --> 01:17:13,227 Speaker 22: Olympic flame, and once that Olympic flame was handed to 1463 01:17:13,427 --> 01:17:18,787 Speaker 22: zenodinsa down onto Rafael and dal and then the great 1464 01:17:18,867 --> 01:17:22,507 Speaker 22: Olympic freech Olympic athletes and Paralympic athletes. 1465 01:17:23,027 --> 01:17:26,027 Speaker 5: I thought that was really special. It having a desired effect. 1466 01:17:25,787 --> 01:17:30,147 Speaker 22: Which was emotion really and now they've got a pretty 1467 01:17:30,187 --> 01:17:31,667 Speaker 22: cool flame with the balloon attached. 1468 01:17:33,587 --> 01:17:35,947 Speaker 3: That's right. Not every city in the world can say 1469 01:17:36,027 --> 01:17:40,307 Speaker 3: that just on You mentioned the highs and the lows, 1470 01:17:40,347 --> 01:17:44,747 Speaker 3: the disappointment and the delight. Our men sevens team obviously 1471 01:17:44,827 --> 01:17:48,907 Speaker 3: started even before the opening ceremony, and their chances of 1472 01:17:49,307 --> 01:17:52,067 Speaker 3: metal were kind of extinguished before the flame was even lit. 1473 01:17:52,347 --> 01:17:54,627 Speaker 3: What about our Blackfood and sevens? Though, James should be 1474 01:17:54,667 --> 01:17:57,627 Speaker 3: fairly confident they'll go back to back in the women's 1475 01:17:58,107 --> 01:17:59,987 Speaker 3: seven should be pretty confident about that, wouldn't you. 1476 01:18:01,227 --> 01:18:04,227 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think so. I think the blackfer and sevens 1477 01:18:04,467 --> 01:18:09,787 Speaker 5: are just a really great story in camaraderie, in. 1478 01:18:11,427 --> 01:18:14,907 Speaker 22: You know, sisterhood, understanding each other and getting the best 1479 01:18:14,947 --> 01:18:19,787 Speaker 22: out of each other and really supporting one another, and 1480 01:18:20,227 --> 01:18:23,587 Speaker 22: that they're excellence. Yeah, Okay, they're amazing athletes, but I 1481 01:18:23,627 --> 01:18:27,147 Speaker 22: think they're a really great template for how a modern 1482 01:18:27,187 --> 01:18:32,107 Speaker 22: New Zealand team should be and that's just part of 1483 01:18:32,147 --> 01:18:34,747 Speaker 22: it is driven. I think a lot of it's driven 1484 01:18:34,787 --> 01:18:37,587 Speaker 22: by the players and I'm always so impressed and you 1485 01:18:37,667 --> 01:18:38,867 Speaker 22: can see it on social media. 1486 01:18:38,907 --> 01:18:41,347 Speaker 5: They're very, very candid. I'm sure every. 1487 01:18:41,187 --> 01:18:44,027 Speaker 22: Time you've interviewed a Black fer and seven they're pretty 1488 01:18:44,107 --> 01:18:47,027 Speaker 22: much the best interview in sport overall, you know, playing 1489 01:18:47,067 --> 01:18:51,347 Speaker 22: for player and so I think that positivity just shines 1490 01:18:51,507 --> 01:18:54,507 Speaker 22: on the field and they'll have to dig deep to 1491 01:18:54,587 --> 01:18:57,427 Speaker 22: be a team like Australia if that's the final, because 1492 01:18:57,507 --> 01:19:01,307 Speaker 22: they've sort of lifted their game in the past six months. 1493 01:19:01,387 --> 01:19:05,307 Speaker 22: But yeah, I really do like the blackfer and seven. 1494 01:19:05,347 --> 01:19:07,387 Speaker 22: Then having someone like see why I could come back 1495 01:19:07,427 --> 01:19:13,787 Speaker 22: as well, like there along with you, Porscha Woodman, michaeleb 1496 01:19:13,907 --> 01:19:16,667 Speaker 22: Lyde and and all the others you know, Tyler King. 1497 01:19:17,987 --> 01:19:21,387 Speaker 3: Yep, No, I think they've looked for me. They're they're 1498 01:19:21,387 --> 01:19:23,627 Speaker 3: the ones. They're the ones. So I think we'll we'll 1499 01:19:23,627 --> 01:19:25,667 Speaker 3: get us started over the next couple of days, perhaps 1500 01:19:25,667 --> 01:19:27,147 Speaker 3: with the gold medal. We might even get some metal 1501 01:19:27,187 --> 01:19:29,307 Speaker 3: before that. Just before you go, do you reckon? Like 1502 01:19:29,987 --> 01:19:31,827 Speaker 3: if you went to the break dancing and you did 1503 01:19:32,227 --> 01:19:35,467 Speaker 3: like a backspin or the worm? Will that get you 1504 01:19:35,467 --> 01:19:37,507 Speaker 3: a good points? Do you think in breakdancing? 1505 01:19:39,107 --> 01:19:39,307 Speaker 8: You know? 1506 01:19:39,347 --> 01:19:39,547 Speaker 5: Hope. 1507 01:19:39,587 --> 01:19:41,427 Speaker 22: So I'm sort of more of a pop and locker, 1508 01:19:41,507 --> 01:19:43,747 Speaker 22: you know, like I sort of can get electric pulse 1509 01:19:43,827 --> 01:19:46,387 Speaker 22: and seat of go through you know, my fingers. And 1510 01:19:47,787 --> 01:19:49,547 Speaker 22: I mean, I don't know what they do about the 1511 01:19:49,667 --> 01:19:52,107 Speaker 22: robot now? Is that considered a bit parse? 1512 01:19:52,427 --> 01:19:53,387 Speaker 19: But I don't know. 1513 01:19:54,027 --> 01:19:54,627 Speaker 7: I don't know. 1514 01:19:56,427 --> 01:19:57,827 Speaker 5: Speaking of robots. 1515 01:19:57,467 --> 01:20:00,347 Speaker 22: Though, Poney, the one thing I was, you know, the drone, 1516 01:20:00,387 --> 01:20:04,027 Speaker 22: the ladist of the drone saga with the Canada has 1517 01:20:04,107 --> 01:20:07,027 Speaker 22: been docked six points. 1518 01:20:07,067 --> 01:20:07,587 Speaker 5: I think it is. 1519 01:20:07,747 --> 01:20:12,307 Speaker 22: Ye, so they for flying two drones spying on the 1520 01:20:12,867 --> 01:20:16,387 Speaker 22: football fans. But it doesn't really address and this is 1521 01:20:16,427 --> 01:20:18,947 Speaker 22: what the statements come out from the end, zo see, 1522 01:20:19,587 --> 01:20:23,427 Speaker 22: it doesn't address the fact that the football fans lost 1523 01:20:23,467 --> 01:20:26,147 Speaker 22: that game. So it hasn't actually helped them at all 1524 01:20:26,387 --> 01:20:29,907 Speaker 22: in a positive way. It's really just killed off Canada's 1525 01:20:30,027 --> 01:20:34,627 Speaker 22: chances of qualifying, right, So I think that is that 1526 01:20:34,787 --> 01:20:36,947 Speaker 22: that's one thing that that should have been a walkover 1527 01:20:37,107 --> 01:20:40,627 Speaker 22: or that result should have been overturned in favor of 1528 01:20:40,667 --> 01:20:44,747 Speaker 22: the football fans. It's it's not really the ideal punishment there. 1529 01:20:44,947 --> 01:20:47,307 Speaker 3: Yeah, you mean to have a zero sum solution here, 1530 01:20:47,347 --> 01:20:50,307 Speaker 3: aren't you. So if somebody loses points, somebody else should 1531 01:20:50,347 --> 01:20:52,267 Speaker 3: gain them. I guess what that also means though, is 1532 01:20:52,307 --> 01:20:55,147 Speaker 3: that you know, if they've docked six, then somebody else 1533 01:20:55,187 --> 01:20:56,587 Speaker 3: has to get three. I don't know, but yeah, I 1534 01:20:56,827 --> 01:21:01,307 Speaker 3: think I tend to agree there's been no advantage gained 1535 01:21:01,347 --> 01:21:05,267 Speaker 3: at all by New Zealand here. They've been the victims 1536 01:21:05,667 --> 01:21:08,627 Speaker 3: both off the field on it unfortunately. So yeah, it's 1537 01:21:08,667 --> 01:21:10,867 Speaker 3: a yah. It's a story that keeps on giving. I'm 1538 01:21:10,907 --> 01:21:13,067 Speaker 3: sure there's more to come on this, James. I've kept 1539 01:21:13,067 --> 01:21:16,187 Speaker 3: you all wait long enough. You you go and get 1540 01:21:16,267 --> 01:21:19,027 Speaker 3: some sleep in the in the Paris night.

They can't get the shot away. 1692 01:29:16,147 --> 01:29:18,947 Speaker 24: Paulson makes it great safe and it has found its 1693 01:29:18,987 --> 01:29:24,467 Speaker 24: way in for three again, Paulson saving the first effort, 1694 01:29:24,867 --> 01:29:27,987 Speaker 24: but it's found its way back to gian Luca Buziol. 1695 01:29:28,507 --> 01:29:31,867 Speaker 3: This is getting very, very bad and deep for New Zealand. 1696 01:29:31,907 --> 01:29:35,187 Speaker 3: They trail three nil on the half hour mark and finally, 1697 01:29:35,227 --> 01:29:38,707 Speaker 3: in events not including Kiwis, the Queen of Clay had 1698 01:29:38,787 --> 01:29:41,347 Speaker 3: no issues to start her tennis campaign well. 1699 01:29:41,467 --> 01:29:44,467 Speaker 25: A very disappointing finish to this game at double faults 1700 01:29:44,707 --> 01:29:48,267 Speaker 25: from the Romanian world's number one hundred and thirty six 1701 01:29:48,947 --> 01:29:52,427 Speaker 25: Arena Begu, but we all knew that the classroom Syontet 1702 01:29:52,547 --> 01:29:54,747 Speaker 25: was going to shine through at some point. The Queen 1703 01:29:55,067 --> 01:29:58,827 Speaker 25: of Clay shows very little sign of being dethroned in 1704 01:29:58,907 --> 01:30:01,067 Speaker 25: round one at Paris twenty twenty. 1705 01:30:00,827 --> 01:30:04,107 Speaker 3: Four, and Antoine du Pont has finally found the glory 1706 01:30:04,267 --> 01:30:06,307 Speaker 3: he was looking for at Star de Front. 1707 01:30:06,587 --> 01:30:07,427 Speaker 10: They want another one. 1708 01:30:07,467 --> 01:30:10,747 Speaker 28: As time starts to take ninety Sigers at play ads 1709 01:30:10,827 --> 01:30:11,867 Speaker 28: long two ponds. 1710 01:30:13,787 --> 01:30:16,827 Speaker 10: Who else but a man for the. 1711 01:30:16,987 --> 01:30:21,947 Speaker 28: Occasion may have just helped sealed a deal For a 1712 01:30:22,187 --> 01:30:27,067 Speaker 28: famous moment in French sporting history, time is up an 1713 01:30:27,147 --> 01:30:35,667 Speaker 28: anslong duke plum. Sometimes it's written, and it is for 1714 01:30:35,827 --> 01:30:42,707 Speaker 28: this French team history made the first gold medal of 1715 01:30:42,947 --> 01:30:47,187 Speaker 28: Paris twenty twenty four for the home team France Rugby 1716 01:30:47,267 --> 01:30:48,627 Speaker 28: severs winners. 1717 01:30:50,347 --> 01:30:52,947 Speaker 1: The scoot from the track Field and the Court on 1718 01:30:53,107 --> 01:30:56,907 Speaker 1: your home of Sport Weekend Sport with Jason Vine News 1719 01:30:56,987 --> 01:30:57,507 Speaker 1: Talks in b. 1720 01:30:57,867 --> 01:31:00,467 Speaker 3: Two fifteen, the all Black squad for the Rugby Championship 1721 01:31:00,627 --> 01:31:04,347 Speaker 3: is named at three o'clock this afternoon. New Zealand Herald 1722 01:31:04,427 --> 01:31:07,827 Speaker 3: Rugby writer Gregor Paul is with to discuss. Gregor, it's 1723 01:31:07,867 --> 01:31:11,027 Speaker 3: a squad of thirty six. It was thirty two for 1724 01:31:11,107 --> 01:31:14,067 Speaker 3: the tests against England and Fiji. Is it fair to 1725 01:31:14,187 --> 01:31:18,267 Speaker 3: say that the original thirty two who were named will 1726 01:31:18,347 --> 01:31:21,427 Speaker 3: be retained if they're fit? I mean nobody has played 1727 01:31:21,467 --> 01:31:23,107 Speaker 3: their way out of this team, have they? 1728 01:31:24,787 --> 01:31:28,387 Speaker 8: Hopefully one would necessarily have played their way out. However, 1729 01:31:29,307 --> 01:31:32,267 Speaker 8: that doesn't necessarily mean that all thirty two of them 1730 01:31:32,507 --> 01:31:36,827 Speaker 8: will be reclaimed because there are certain individuals who had 1731 01:31:36,947 --> 01:31:42,987 Speaker 8: thought were going to come back. For example, Samson, he 1732 01:31:43,107 --> 01:31:45,147 Speaker 8: was originally going to be in the squad, but you know, 1733 01:31:45,307 --> 01:31:49,027 Speaker 8: was injured, so he came out. They brought in Bell 1734 01:31:49,107 --> 01:31:51,427 Speaker 8: was a replacements, so that might be one of the 1735 01:31:51,507 --> 01:31:55,387 Speaker 8: thirty two. Will Jordan is back fit, and you know, 1736 01:31:55,507 --> 01:31:57,987 Speaker 8: again he would have been in an original selection if 1737 01:31:58,027 --> 01:32:01,427 Speaker 8: he'd been fit. I will have to see whether he 1738 01:32:01,627 --> 01:32:04,387 Speaker 8: comes back in at the extense of an existing player 1739 01:32:05,387 --> 01:32:09,227 Speaker 8: or whether he's in adal outside back going into the mix, 1740 01:32:09,307 --> 01:32:12,387 Speaker 8: And it'll already depend on you know, what kind of 1741 01:32:12,507 --> 01:32:15,227 Speaker 8: balance the selectors are going to feel they need positionally 1742 01:32:15,467 --> 01:32:18,147 Speaker 8: to understand if there's going to be any guys coming out. 1743 01:32:18,707 --> 01:32:20,787 Speaker 3: Well, just on the Will Jordan one, if they add him, 1744 01:32:20,867 --> 01:32:24,307 Speaker 3: that's still only six outside bags, isn't it, Clark not 1745 01:32:24,467 --> 01:32:29,667 Speaker 3: our Piafitta race to layer Ed Jordan. They can afford 1746 01:32:29,707 --> 01:32:32,907 Speaker 3: another outside back if they're adding four players, can't they? 1747 01:32:33,467 --> 01:32:36,827 Speaker 8: They probably could, but they've got some, you know, injury 1748 01:32:37,027 --> 01:32:40,307 Speaker 8: concerns if you're going backwards and look back to Locke. 1749 01:32:40,987 --> 01:32:44,227 Speaker 8: At the moment, Scott Barrett has been revealed I've had 1750 01:32:44,307 --> 01:32:48,027 Speaker 8: surgery on a finger the length of his recovery time 1751 01:32:48,147 --> 01:32:51,427 Speaker 8: is unknown at the stage or we haven't been told. Certainly, 1752 01:32:52,427 --> 01:32:55,387 Speaker 8: Patrick Tupelotto, you didn't go to San Diego. They were 1753 01:32:55,467 --> 01:32:58,827 Speaker 8: resting him after, you know, I had an incredible period 1754 01:32:58,867 --> 01:33:01,467 Speaker 8: with his knee and back and forth and whatnot. So 1755 01:33:02,187 --> 01:33:04,827 Speaker 8: they'll be a little bit careful about managing him. Still, 1756 01:33:05,267 --> 01:33:07,547 Speaker 8: I would have thought with with what's happened with him, 1757 01:33:08,267 --> 01:33:11,907 Speaker 8: so they might want to strengthen themselves around Lock. They 1758 01:33:11,987 --> 01:33:14,747 Speaker 8: might not. They might feel comfortable operating, you know, with 1759 01:33:15,347 --> 01:33:17,987 Speaker 8: the guys that they've got with just three knowing that 1760 01:33:18,147 --> 01:33:21,467 Speaker 8: I assume Barrett will come back to full fitness reasonably quickly, 1761 01:33:21,547 --> 01:33:24,107 Speaker 8: so they could probably carry three Locks to through the 1762 01:33:24,187 --> 01:33:28,867 Speaker 8: Argentina games and then get Barrett back. So it really 1763 01:33:29,027 --> 01:33:32,507 Speaker 8: just does depend on where they feel they need strength 1764 01:33:32,587 --> 01:33:34,867 Speaker 8: and dates across the thirty six players that they have. 1765 01:33:35,347 --> 01:33:37,587 Speaker 3: It feels like Sam Derry might be there though he 1766 01:33:37,707 --> 01:33:41,587 Speaker 3: debut didn't he against veg Over in San Diego. If 1767 01:33:41,627 --> 01:33:46,187 Speaker 3: they are even mildly concerned about Lock, that put Sam 1768 01:33:46,267 --> 01:33:47,187 Speaker 3: Dry in there, wouldn't they. 1769 01:33:47,667 --> 01:33:49,787 Speaker 8: I think he'll certainly do the Yeah, I think that's 1770 01:33:49,827 --> 01:33:52,387 Speaker 8: a given at the moment. Given where they're at, they 1771 01:33:52,427 --> 01:33:56,507 Speaker 8: would want injury cover for Scott Barrett certainly, and I 1772 01:33:56,627 --> 01:33:59,667 Speaker 8: think they'll probably want to carry four locks in their 1773 01:33:59,787 --> 01:34:04,747 Speaker 8: thirty six man squad anyway, and Sam Barry would appear 1774 01:34:04,787 --> 01:34:07,027 Speaker 8: to be the fourth guy given that he was one 1775 01:34:07,067 --> 01:34:09,827 Speaker 8: we called up to take the San Diego So yeah, 1776 01:34:10,187 --> 01:34:11,507 Speaker 8: he'll he'll definitely be there. 1777 01:34:11,507 --> 01:34:15,107 Speaker 3: I would have thought, what about Sam Kine lit with it. 1778 01:34:15,987 --> 01:34:19,867 Speaker 8: Yeah, Look, Sam's been training with the squad pretty much 1779 01:34:19,987 --> 01:34:22,867 Speaker 8: throughout the whole of July. He I bumped into him 1780 01:34:22,867 --> 01:34:24,827 Speaker 8: in a cafe, told me he's fully fit. He's been 1781 01:34:24,907 --> 01:34:28,507 Speaker 8: training for most of the time the squad had been assembled. Look, 1782 01:34:29,147 --> 01:34:32,667 Speaker 8: let's be clear, he's a world class player, and he's available, 1783 01:34:32,787 --> 01:34:34,547 Speaker 8: and he's available until the end of the year. And 1784 01:34:34,667 --> 01:34:36,827 Speaker 8: I know that Jason Ryan, the forwards coach, is a 1785 01:34:36,987 --> 01:34:41,507 Speaker 8: huge Sam Kane fan because he understands the value of 1786 01:34:41,667 --> 01:34:44,547 Speaker 8: a of a heavy tackler, which is what Sam is. 1787 01:34:45,027 --> 01:34:50,307 Speaker 8: A highly experienced professional with great leadership ability, really strong 1788 01:34:50,387 --> 01:34:53,227 Speaker 8: over the ball at the breakdown. He's a great carrier 1789 01:34:53,307 --> 01:34:56,667 Speaker 8: of the bomb in close quarters. He's maybe not the 1790 01:34:56,747 --> 01:34:59,307 Speaker 8: kind of traditional New Zealand seven. He gets dived into 1791 01:34:59,387 --> 01:35:02,027 Speaker 8: the open and we you know, we see you know, 1792 01:35:02,107 --> 01:35:05,187 Speaker 8: a long striding ball playing seven that he's really good 1793 01:35:05,227 --> 01:35:07,947 Speaker 8: at just grinding out a couple of really difficult meters 1794 01:35:07,987 --> 01:35:11,227 Speaker 8: against bigger men. One hundred percent going to be back 1795 01:35:11,267 --> 01:35:14,907 Speaker 8: in to the squad, and I'd imagine if they think 1796 01:35:14,947 --> 01:35:17,787 Speaker 8: he's got enough game time behind him, I think they'll 1797 01:35:17,787 --> 01:35:19,787 Speaker 8: want to get him on the bench pretty quickly for 1798 01:35:19,867 --> 01:35:21,947 Speaker 8: the All Blacks and then back into the starting sisting 1799 01:35:22,587 --> 01:35:24,187 Speaker 8: ready in time to go to South Africa. 1800 01:35:24,467 --> 01:35:27,307 Speaker 3: Interesting, what about David Havili? Is there a room for him? 1801 01:35:27,347 --> 01:35:29,187 Speaker 3: They've got four pretty good midfielders at the moment. 1802 01:35:30,467 --> 01:35:33,507 Speaker 8: Again, it depends on where they want to part the 1803 01:35:33,627 --> 01:35:38,107 Speaker 8: new The new players they did seem pretty keen on, 1804 01:35:39,107 --> 01:35:41,507 Speaker 8: you know, like Razor would know David Havili pretty well. 1805 01:35:41,627 --> 01:35:45,427 Speaker 8: He's a really versatile football players that plays in the midfield. 1806 01:35:45,667 --> 01:35:48,147 Speaker 8: He's played at full back, he can play at number 1807 01:35:48,187 --> 01:35:50,907 Speaker 8: ten if needs be. Whether he can play their international 1808 01:35:51,027 --> 01:35:55,187 Speaker 8: level not quite yet. So a guy on that level 1809 01:35:55,427 --> 01:35:58,587 Speaker 8: of versatility and he's got he's got a good level 1810 01:35:58,627 --> 01:36:01,747 Speaker 8: of experience as well. He's played you know, twenty plus 1811 01:36:01,827 --> 01:36:04,507 Speaker 8: Test matches. But he'd been a kind of guy that 1812 01:36:04,587 --> 01:36:07,947 Speaker 8: they potentially for Rugby to want to carry with them. 1813 01:36:08,027 --> 01:36:10,467 Speaker 8: So he's embedded with the system with the team. He's 1814 01:36:10,507 --> 01:36:13,627 Speaker 8: been training with them. By the way, throughout July, there 1815 01:36:13,667 --> 01:36:16,947 Speaker 8: was a whole sort of entourage of extras that were 1816 01:36:16,987 --> 01:36:19,747 Speaker 8: continually with the team throughout July. He was one of them, 1817 01:36:19,827 --> 01:36:22,827 Speaker 8: George Bauer being another, Sam King, Will Jordan, All these 1818 01:36:22,867 --> 01:36:25,627 Speaker 8: guys have been with the team. So it's potential for 1819 01:36:26,027 --> 01:36:28,467 Speaker 8: David to come in because inevitably, Piney, we know there's 1820 01:36:28,467 --> 01:36:30,827 Speaker 8: going to be injury a little bit. Had a guy 1821 01:36:30,907 --> 01:36:33,507 Speaker 8: training with them who they trust and is ready to 1822 01:36:34,467 --> 01:36:36,227 Speaker 8: up to speed with how they want to play, what 1823 01:36:36,347 --> 01:36:38,987 Speaker 8: his role is likely to be. If he's needed. It's 1824 01:36:39,067 --> 01:36:41,027 Speaker 8: good to have them there rather than calling them in 1825 01:36:41,147 --> 01:36:43,827 Speaker 8: calls and having to get them up to speed quickly. 1826 01:36:44,027 --> 01:36:48,347 Speaker 8: So yeah, he if the balance suits them, I think 1827 01:36:48,427 --> 01:36:50,307 Speaker 8: he's the sort of guy that would would cover a 1828 01:36:50,347 --> 01:36:52,267 Speaker 8: lot of options for them if he comes back in 1829 01:36:53,147 --> 01:36:53,627 Speaker 8: half back. 1830 01:36:54,027 --> 01:36:55,827 Speaker 3: I think we can assume can't be that cam Roy 1831 01:36:55,867 --> 01:36:58,267 Speaker 3: guard still isn't really I think they were talking about 1832 01:36:58,267 --> 01:37:01,587 Speaker 3: the end of year term tour rather for cam Royguards. 1833 01:37:01,667 --> 01:37:06,107 Speaker 3: So let's say TJ. Pernada is fit again. What is 1834 01:37:06,147 --> 01:37:09,027 Speaker 3: the picking order in New Zealand half picks Let's leave 1835 01:37:09,067 --> 01:37:10,987 Speaker 3: Roy got out of it. What's the picking order of 1836 01:37:11,107 --> 01:37:12,587 Speaker 3: those who are fit at the moment. 1837 01:37:12,947 --> 01:37:18,107 Speaker 8: Well, my taking order is Quarters ratumare one, and I 1838 01:37:18,147 --> 01:37:23,227 Speaker 8: would go Noah Hawsum two, TJ. Perrinara three, Finley Christich 1839 01:37:23,347 --> 01:37:26,507 Speaker 8: four if it was up to me, where where would 1840 01:37:26,547 --> 01:37:29,027 Speaker 8: they be sitting? I think they might have got enough 1841 01:37:29,107 --> 01:37:33,147 Speaker 8: confidence in Quarters Ratama to start them, But whether they 1842 01:37:33,227 --> 01:37:35,627 Speaker 8: do start them regularly, I don't know. Because they probably 1843 01:37:35,827 --> 01:37:40,467 Speaker 8: like the experience of TJ. Peer and his competitiveness, his 1844 01:37:40,627 --> 01:37:43,787 Speaker 8: leadership qualities. These are all valuable things. So I think 1845 01:37:43,947 --> 01:37:47,067 Speaker 8: they probably still see TJ. Parri's number one because I 1846 01:37:47,107 --> 01:37:50,547 Speaker 8: think he started the season is number one, and just 1847 01:37:50,627 --> 01:37:53,427 Speaker 8: because he's been injured, I don't think they would as 1848 01:37:53,507 --> 01:37:55,547 Speaker 8: evidence to say he's no longer the number one. But 1849 01:37:55,707 --> 01:37:59,067 Speaker 8: clearly there's going to be a live situation there. Ratum 1850 01:37:59,107 --> 01:38:03,267 Speaker 8: has now number two and Christy would be their number three, 1851 01:38:03,307 --> 01:38:06,667 Speaker 8: and I imagine that Noah Hawsum drops out when t. 1852 01:38:07,267 --> 01:38:10,987 Speaker 8: Peranara comes back in, when roygun arrives whenever that is 1853 01:38:11,147 --> 01:38:14,427 Speaker 8: probably later this year. Jeepers, you know you've got what 1854 01:38:14,667 --> 01:38:17,387 Speaker 8: five six guys who you know are going to be 1855 01:38:17,427 --> 01:38:19,707 Speaker 8: competing for a birthday and I think that pecking order 1856 01:38:20,267 --> 01:38:21,227 Speaker 8: will remain fluid. 1857 01:38:21,787 --> 01:38:23,867 Speaker 3: Do you think we'll see Bowden, Barrett's staff and the 1858 01:38:23,947 --> 01:38:26,627 Speaker 3: teen jersey at all in the Rugby Championship. 1859 01:38:26,907 --> 01:38:30,907 Speaker 8: Well, potentially that's something that may happen, you know, while 1860 01:38:30,947 --> 01:38:33,147 Speaker 8: they because they're going to rest and retake mckensey at 1861 01:38:33,187 --> 01:38:35,147 Speaker 8: some point. I don't think they want to do that 1862 01:38:35,267 --> 01:38:36,907 Speaker 8: too much because I think you want to keep a 1863 01:38:37,227 --> 01:38:39,427 Speaker 8: young number ten young in the sense that he's not 1864 01:38:39,427 --> 01:38:42,627 Speaker 8: got a lot of experience. You probably want to keep 1865 01:38:42,747 --> 01:38:45,787 Speaker 8: him on the field, keep learning, keep growing, because it's 1866 01:38:45,827 --> 01:38:49,987 Speaker 8: about understanding your craft so broader and I suspect will 1867 01:38:49,987 --> 01:38:51,667 Speaker 8: be a guy that I don't think they'll be looking 1868 01:38:51,707 --> 01:38:55,827 Speaker 8: to put a competitive element into that situation at the moment. 1869 01:38:55,867 --> 01:38:58,547 Speaker 8: There's no real need to do that. But if they 1870 01:38:58,587 --> 01:39:00,627 Speaker 8: want to give, you know, McKinsey a week off, then 1871 01:39:00,667 --> 01:39:02,587 Speaker 8: Barrett would probably be the guy that they would start 1872 01:39:02,627 --> 01:39:04,907 Speaker 8: at number ten. But look, they know what they've gotten Barrett. 1873 01:39:05,387 --> 01:39:07,347 Speaker 8: I don't think they need to start a live process 1874 01:39:07,427 --> 01:39:10,507 Speaker 8: of putting pressure on McKenzie, you know, because he's playing 1875 01:39:10,547 --> 01:39:12,907 Speaker 8: pretty well as it is. I don't think he needs 1876 01:39:12,947 --> 01:39:16,107 Speaker 8: that right now external pressure. With the sense they're trying 1877 01:39:16,147 --> 01:39:20,267 Speaker 8: to grow a veteran number ten alongside him. They're lucky 1878 01:39:20,347 --> 01:39:22,907 Speaker 8: because Bonds is a brilliant player and if they need 1879 01:39:22,987 --> 01:39:25,107 Speaker 8: a number ten that's capable of playing a test match 1880 01:39:25,387 --> 01:39:27,507 Speaker 8: called off the bat, he'd be the guy that could 1881 01:39:27,507 --> 01:39:28,027 Speaker 8: do it for them. 1882 01:39:28,427 --> 01:39:30,347 Speaker 3: And when they come together as a thirty six with 1883 01:39:30,427 --> 01:39:32,987 Speaker 3: the coaching staff, etc. Get ready for the Rugby Championship. 1884 01:39:33,067 --> 01:39:35,987 Speaker 3: Given what they learned during the two England Test matches, 1885 01:39:36,067 --> 01:39:38,507 Speaker 3: let's both feed you to one side in the England 1886 01:39:38,547 --> 01:39:40,427 Speaker 3: Test matches. What do you think the main areas of 1887 01:39:40,507 --> 01:39:43,547 Speaker 3: focus will be for Razer and his coaching staff as 1888 01:39:43,587 --> 01:39:46,107 Speaker 3: he prepares this group for the Rugby Championship. 1889 01:39:47,067 --> 01:39:48,707 Speaker 8: I think the forwards need to be a bit more 1890 01:39:48,787 --> 01:39:54,747 Speaker 8: concentrational and aggressive in traveling north to south, around around 1891 01:39:54,827 --> 01:39:59,147 Speaker 8: the middle of the field, going directly through forward packs, 1892 01:39:59,507 --> 01:40:02,147 Speaker 8: playing a little bit of continuity there, whether it's you know, 1893 01:40:02,307 --> 01:40:05,747 Speaker 8: using quick feet, quick passing, changing the point of the attack, 1894 01:40:05,827 --> 01:40:10,307 Speaker 8: but certainly putting defenses backwards, you know, through the ball 1895 01:40:10,427 --> 01:40:13,467 Speaker 8: carrying and an ability of the All Black forward pack 1896 01:40:14,067 --> 01:40:15,907 Speaker 8: to do that. We didn't really see a lot of 1897 01:40:15,987 --> 01:40:18,387 Speaker 8: that against England. I think they need to be a 1898 01:40:18,427 --> 01:40:20,747 Speaker 8: bit more clinical when they you know, when they create 1899 01:40:20,827 --> 01:40:23,067 Speaker 8: half opportunities. There were quite a lot of points they 1900 01:40:23,187 --> 01:40:26,027 Speaker 8: left out on the field. And I think the third 1901 01:40:26,107 --> 01:40:31,147 Speaker 8: area that they weren't particularly good at is marrying an 1902 01:40:31,267 --> 01:40:34,707 Speaker 8: accurate kicking game into the rest of the game plan. 1903 01:40:34,827 --> 01:40:36,907 Speaker 8: They seemed to kick a little bit with you know, 1904 01:40:37,067 --> 01:40:39,027 Speaker 8: no real plan around what they were trying to do. 1905 01:40:39,227 --> 01:40:41,947 Speaker 8: There didn't feel like they were really spot on with 1906 01:40:42,067 --> 01:40:44,827 Speaker 8: what their intentions were and what their execution was, you know, 1907 01:40:45,507 --> 01:40:47,667 Speaker 8: was trying to do. And I think when you when 1908 01:40:47,707 --> 01:40:49,987 Speaker 8: you end up playing teams like Argentina and South Africa 1909 01:40:50,027 --> 01:40:52,307 Speaker 8: in particular, that that's a part of your game you've 1910 01:40:52,307 --> 01:40:53,987 Speaker 8: got to get right. So these will be the three 1911 01:40:54,547 --> 01:40:56,667 Speaker 8: three elements I think they'll want to get. 1912 01:40:56,747 --> 01:40:59,867 Speaker 3: Sharper On always enjoy you're insight, Gregor. Thanks so much 1913 01:40:59,907 --> 01:41:02,747 Speaker 3: for taking the time this afternoon. My play Gregor Paul 1914 01:41:02,907 --> 01:41:04,987 Speaker 3: there you read them in the Insined, the Herald, Indian, 1915 01:41:05,027 --> 01:41:07,507 Speaker 3: herold Dot cut on Engine or just the paper. Three 1916 01:41:07,547 --> 01:41:10,947 Speaker 3: o'clock this afternoon is when that team is named squad 1917 01:41:10,987 --> 01:41:13,667 Speaker 3: of thirty six for the Rugby Championship couple of tests 1918 01:41:13,707 --> 01:41:18,187 Speaker 3: against Argentina, both in New Zealand tests away two in 1919 01:41:18,307 --> 01:41:21,667 Speaker 3: South Africa, then home and away against Australia. So six 1920 01:41:21,787 --> 01:41:25,027 Speaker 3: Rugby Championship tests, thirty six men in that squad. You 1921 01:41:25,147 --> 01:41:27,627 Speaker 3: might have caught the news yesterday Scott Barrett needed surgery 1922 01:41:28,187 --> 01:41:30,027 Speaker 3: after one of the recent test matches. I think it 1923 01:41:30,067 --> 01:41:32,107 Speaker 3: was the Figi Test, so he's in doubt for at 1924 01:41:32,187 --> 01:41:35,267 Speaker 3: least the first Rugby Championship Test. Other than that, I 1925 01:41:35,347 --> 01:41:38,707 Speaker 3: think everybody's pretty much good to go.

Tell us about your time working 1956 01:43:15,267 --> 01:43:17,587 Speaker 3: alongside Gareth Southgate with the England team. 1957 01:43:18,707 --> 01:43:20,947 Speaker 9: Kurada. Yeah, a great honor for me. 1958 01:43:21,947 --> 01:43:25,787 Speaker 29: I was retained by the Football Association the year before 1959 01:43:25,867 --> 01:43:28,467 Speaker 29: he became the manager of the team. They were doing 1960 01:43:28,507 --> 01:43:31,027 Speaker 29: a big DNA project and they were looking at all 1961 01:43:31,107 --> 01:43:33,987 Speaker 29: the aspects of English football and what they found is 1962 01:43:34,027 --> 01:43:35,707 Speaker 29: that they were pretty clear on what they wanted to 1963 01:43:35,787 --> 01:43:38,827 Speaker 29: do from a technical point of view, but they really 1964 01:43:39,067 --> 01:43:43,427 Speaker 29: weren't confident how to create teen culture. So anyway, I 1965 01:43:43,547 --> 01:43:46,187 Speaker 29: was invited to participate in that, and at the time 1966 01:43:46,227 --> 01:43:50,107 Speaker 29: Gareth was an under twenty one manager and I came 1967 01:43:50,187 --> 01:43:52,987 Speaker 29: back with probably quite a radical report. In many ways, 1968 01:43:53,067 --> 01:43:57,107 Speaker 29: I felt like they needed a complete transformation, and I 1969 01:43:57,147 --> 01:44:00,067 Speaker 29: think with a lot of other managers would have been 1970 01:44:00,107 --> 01:44:01,787 Speaker 29: too much for them and too different for them. But 1971 01:44:01,907 --> 01:44:05,707 Speaker 29: when he was promoted to be the England men's manager, 1972 01:44:06,347 --> 01:44:09,827 Speaker 29: he knew me. He agreed with the ideas and we 1973 01:44:09,947 --> 01:44:10,707 Speaker 29: got to work together. 1974 01:44:11,267 --> 01:44:13,707 Speaker 3: What sort of things were you suggesting to him and 1975 01:44:13,827 --> 01:44:14,347 Speaker 3: to England? 1976 01:44:16,547 --> 01:44:19,907 Speaker 29: When I first got appointed, I did a three month 1977 01:44:20,027 --> 01:44:23,747 Speaker 29: project trying to understand the culture of English football team. 1978 01:44:23,747 --> 01:44:24,387 Speaker 9: Obviously, as a. 1979 01:44:24,427 --> 01:44:27,827 Speaker 29: KIWI, I wasn't familiar with that, and I went back 1980 01:44:27,867 --> 01:44:29,787 Speaker 29: and I actually met players going back to the nineteen 1981 01:44:29,787 --> 01:44:32,587 Speaker 29: fifties and I asked him what the ten culture was 1982 01:44:32,667 --> 01:44:34,507 Speaker 29: like in the nineteen fifties and all the way through 1983 01:44:35,627 --> 01:44:38,467 Speaker 29: and started to get a good sense of it. And 1984 01:44:38,587 --> 01:44:40,587 Speaker 29: the thing that probably stood out the most was that 1985 01:44:41,267 --> 01:44:44,187 Speaker 29: the Golden Generation, which was about twenty years ago of 1986 01:44:44,307 --> 01:44:49,107 Speaker 29: David Beckham and Michael Owen and Frank Lampard and Stephen Gerard, 1987 01:44:49,147 --> 01:44:53,267 Speaker 29: they were regarded as probably the best English generation since 1988 01:44:53,627 --> 01:44:56,387 Speaker 29: nineteen sixty six when they won the World Cup, and 1989 01:44:56,507 --> 01:45:00,747 Speaker 29: they underperformed pretty miserably really over a decade. And I 1990 01:45:00,947 --> 01:45:03,187 Speaker 29: spoke to some of those players in the team and 1991 01:45:03,307 --> 01:45:05,067 Speaker 29: the things that really stood out to me was that 1992 01:45:05,747 --> 01:45:07,507 Speaker 29: a lot of the pla as we're very candid with me, 1993 01:45:07,627 --> 01:45:09,547 Speaker 29: and said that they did not. 1994 01:45:09,707 --> 01:45:11,787 Speaker 9: Enjoy going to a Euro's or a World Cup. 1995 01:45:12,507 --> 01:45:16,747 Speaker 29: The amount of pressure on them was just extreme and 1996 01:45:16,867 --> 01:45:19,587 Speaker 29: if you missed a penodia got sent off literally your 1997 01:45:19,667 --> 01:45:22,667 Speaker 29: life could be detrimentally affected forever. 1998 01:45:23,067 --> 01:45:24,467 Speaker 9: And that had happened with some people. 1999 01:45:25,227 --> 01:45:27,387 Speaker 29: And you know, it's very actually similar to being an 2000 01:45:27,427 --> 01:45:31,427 Speaker 29: all Black. This is incredible intense pressure. People get very 2001 01:45:31,507 --> 01:45:35,027 Speaker 29: very emotional things don't go well. They expected not only 2002 01:45:35,107 --> 01:45:37,747 Speaker 29: to win, but to win with style. And some of 2003 01:45:37,787 --> 01:45:40,107 Speaker 29: the players told me that actually, you know, when they'd 2004 01:45:40,187 --> 01:45:42,747 Speaker 29: been defeated in the quarter final of a World Cup, 2005 01:45:42,827 --> 01:45:44,707 Speaker 29: the player said to me, if you had been on 2006 01:45:44,787 --> 01:45:47,067 Speaker 29: our bus, you would have been sure we'd won it 2007 01:45:47,787 --> 01:45:51,107 Speaker 29: because the players were actually so relieved to go home 2008 01:45:51,267 --> 01:45:54,707 Speaker 29: and for this ordeal to have finished. It looked like 2009 01:45:54,827 --> 01:45:57,067 Speaker 29: they were elated and celebrating. 2010 01:45:57,627 --> 01:45:58,587 Speaker 9: That's how bad it was. 2011 01:45:58,707 --> 01:46:01,027 Speaker 29: So that was the obvious thing for me, is that 2012 01:46:01,187 --> 01:46:07,027 Speaker 29: the culture was one full of fear, full of negativity 2013 01:46:07,067 --> 01:46:09,947 Speaker 29: and pessimism really and that was the thing they needed 2014 01:46:09,987 --> 01:46:11,907 Speaker 29: to be addressed. And you know, Gareth had been in 2015 01:46:11,947 --> 01:46:14,387 Speaker 29: that situation himself, having been a player for England, and 2016 01:46:14,587 --> 01:46:17,427 Speaker 29: he completely agreed. So that's what we were able to 2017 01:46:17,467 --> 01:46:21,667 Speaker 29: collaborate around. What would a more optimistic, positive, energetic culture 2018 01:46:21,747 --> 01:46:22,027 Speaker 29: look like. 2019 01:46:22,867 --> 01:46:23,587 Speaker 3: Did it become that? 2020 01:46:26,147 --> 01:46:27,667 Speaker 29: You know that I'm very proud of the fact that 2021 01:46:27,747 --> 01:46:31,067 Speaker 29: it definitely did. You know, the energy of the team 2022 01:46:31,107 --> 01:46:35,747 Speaker 29: fundamentally shifted, as you pointed out, after they. 2023 01:46:35,667 --> 01:46:37,427 Speaker 9: Won the World Cup in nineteen sixty six. 2024 01:46:38,467 --> 01:46:41,507 Speaker 29: They only made one semi final of a World Cup 2025 01:46:41,587 --> 01:46:45,387 Speaker 29: after that nineteen ninety and they never made the finals 2026 01:46:45,427 --> 01:46:48,667 Speaker 29: of the Euros and then the four tournaments that Gareth 2027 01:46:48,787 --> 01:46:51,507 Speaker 29: was a manager, made two Euro's finals, made a semi 2028 01:46:51,587 --> 01:46:54,547 Speaker 29: final of a World Cup and lost a quarterfinal to 2029 01:46:54,707 --> 01:46:56,467 Speaker 29: the reigning champions France. 2030 01:46:56,187 --> 01:46:56,547 Speaker 5: And the other. 2031 01:46:57,187 --> 01:46:59,427 Speaker 29: And what people would say is the players enjoyed the 2032 01:46:59,507 --> 01:47:04,227 Speaker 29: experience and they were a lot less stressed. So we 2033 01:47:04,307 --> 01:47:07,067 Speaker 29: connected them with the meaning of the Three Lions and 2034 01:47:07,147 --> 01:47:09,907 Speaker 29: playing for England and they loved all that. We spent 2035 01:47:10,067 --> 01:47:12,187 Speaker 29: time away from training to connect them with each other, 2036 01:47:13,147 --> 01:47:14,067 Speaker 29: and that really was. 2037 01:47:14,587 --> 01:47:16,507 Speaker 9: A powerful thing to have done. And we wanted have 2038 01:47:16,627 --> 01:47:17,347 Speaker 9: fun and relaxed. 2039 01:47:17,387 --> 01:47:19,827 Speaker 29: We had basketball court set up in the hotels and 2040 01:47:20,147 --> 01:47:21,747 Speaker 29: we just wanted them just to be young men and 2041 01:47:21,907 --> 01:47:22,627 Speaker 29: enjoy themselves. 2042 01:47:22,667 --> 01:47:24,627 Speaker 9: And Gareth was brilliant at that. 2043 01:47:24,827 --> 01:47:29,227 Speaker 29: He's a really lovely, gentle person and he wasn't threatening 2044 01:47:29,267 --> 01:47:33,467 Speaker 29: to them, he wasn't scary. He was always consistent the 2045 01:47:33,547 --> 01:47:36,267 Speaker 29: way he turned up and the players learned to trust 2046 01:47:36,347 --> 01:47:40,307 Speaker 29: him and became a father figure into many of them. So, yeah, 2047 01:47:40,347 --> 01:47:42,227 Speaker 29: the energy of the team changed and that led to 2048 01:47:42,307 --> 01:47:43,947 Speaker 29: a direct improvement in their performance. 2049 01:47:43,947 --> 01:47:44,667 Speaker 9: And they done about that. 2050 01:47:45,187 --> 01:47:48,867 Speaker 3: Are you able to directly correlate those two things or 2051 01:47:48,947 --> 01:47:50,187 Speaker 3: did they simply just play better? 2052 01:47:51,827 --> 01:47:54,547 Speaker 9: You know, I've had this with other teams as well. 2053 01:47:55,147 --> 01:47:57,507 Speaker 29: Sometimes people watch a team on TV and they go, 2054 01:47:58,107 --> 01:48:00,627 Speaker 29: you know what, they're not fit. They don't look fit, 2055 01:48:00,747 --> 01:48:04,787 Speaker 29: they don't look conditioned. They looked exhausted. And actually, what 2056 01:48:04,867 --> 01:48:06,587 Speaker 29: I've learned is that often it is nothing to do 2057 01:48:06,707 --> 01:48:09,187 Speaker 29: with physical conditioning. The reason is is that and I 2058 01:48:09,267 --> 01:48:10,867 Speaker 29: think a lot of people who are listening to this 2059 01:48:10,987 --> 01:48:14,427 Speaker 29: can relate to this in their workplace probably is that 2060 01:48:14,507 --> 01:48:17,707 Speaker 29: when you're in a very stressful environment where you don't 2061 01:48:17,787 --> 01:48:22,707 Speaker 29: really feel psychologically safe, there's a lot of tension around you, 2062 01:48:22,827 --> 01:48:26,067 Speaker 29: and you don't really trust the environment or all your leaders. 2063 01:48:26,787 --> 01:48:31,627 Speaker 29: That is chronic stress, and you are absolutely naked. And 2064 01:48:31,747 --> 01:48:34,187 Speaker 29: it's no different for a sports theme as it is 2065 01:48:34,227 --> 01:48:38,227 Speaker 29: for any one else. And so these very simple principles, 2066 01:48:38,267 --> 01:48:41,227 Speaker 29: and it's actually hormonal. Is a good way to think 2067 01:48:41,227 --> 01:48:43,787 Speaker 29: about this is that we want people to be energized 2068 01:48:43,827 --> 01:48:47,387 Speaker 29: by having less stress and more oxytocin, which is released 2069 01:48:47,387 --> 01:48:50,307 Speaker 29: when you feel connected to people around you, and more dopamine, 2070 01:48:50,387 --> 01:48:53,307 Speaker 29: which is released when you are striving towards a goal 2071 01:48:53,387 --> 01:48:56,267 Speaker 29: with other people which has some meaning to you. So 2072 01:48:56,947 --> 01:49:00,187 Speaker 29: these are quite simple ideas and that definitely transform the 2073 01:49:00,347 --> 01:49:03,347 Speaker 29: energy of the team. The fact that Gareth is always 2074 01:49:03,347 --> 01:49:06,107 Speaker 29: an optimist, he's focusing on what could go well than 2075 01:49:06,147 --> 01:49:08,907 Speaker 29: what go wrong. That actually also changes the hormonal state 2076 01:49:08,947 --> 01:49:11,867 Speaker 29: of people. When you are surrounded by optimistic people, you 2077 01:49:12,027 --> 01:49:12,867 Speaker 29: are less stressed. 2078 01:49:14,347 --> 01:49:17,907 Speaker 3: We think the All Blacks coaches are the pressure. How 2079 01:49:17,987 --> 01:49:22,387 Speaker 3: much is that pressure multiplied as England means football boss. 2080 01:49:24,187 --> 01:49:26,147 Speaker 9: I don't think it's multiplied, but I think it's very 2081 01:49:26,347 --> 01:49:27,067 Speaker 9: very similar. 2082 01:49:27,987 --> 01:49:33,747 Speaker 29: And you know, I mean Gareth has been under incredible 2083 01:49:33,787 --> 01:49:36,787 Speaker 29: pressure in his last tournament to win it, you know, 2084 01:49:37,907 --> 01:49:40,667 Speaker 29: which if you think about, is quite mad because before 2085 01:49:40,747 --> 01:49:44,467 Speaker 29: his time the team which is completely uncompetitive for fifty years. 2086 01:49:45,547 --> 01:49:49,427 Speaker 29: So but people like the exell in public, they want 2087 01:49:49,507 --> 01:49:51,547 Speaker 29: to win and they want to win in style. And 2088 01:49:51,947 --> 01:49:54,867 Speaker 29: Gareth was criticized for his tactics being a bit too cautious. 2089 01:49:55,467 --> 01:49:57,587 Speaker 29: I'm not a football expert, so I wouldn't comment on that, 2090 01:49:58,347 --> 01:50:02,347 Speaker 29: but there was a desire to move on from him, 2091 01:50:02,427 --> 01:50:04,627 Speaker 29: notwithstanding the relative success that he had. 2092 01:50:04,747 --> 01:50:07,387 Speaker 9: So you know, that's the reality we know about. That 2093 01:50:07,547 --> 01:50:11,027 Speaker 9: is key Weason. But you know, having said that, I 2094 01:50:11,307 --> 01:50:13,987 Speaker 9: encourage everybody to get right in behind raise her because 2095 01:50:14,387 --> 01:50:15,627 Speaker 9: it's not easy what he's doing. 2096 01:50:16,347 --> 01:50:18,627 Speaker 29: And you know, we need to have some patients with 2097 01:50:18,827 --> 01:50:21,667 Speaker 29: him and allow all of this to play out in 2098 01:50:21,747 --> 01:50:23,627 Speaker 29: the way that he's envisioned. 2099 01:50:23,707 --> 01:50:26,947 Speaker 3: As you've outlined. Oh and Gala Southgate came under immense 2100 01:50:27,387 --> 01:50:31,347 Speaker 3: heat during the Euros, despite the fact that he guided 2101 01:50:31,387 --> 01:50:34,147 Speaker 3: the team all the way to the final. What I mean, 2102 01:50:34,427 --> 01:50:36,747 Speaker 3: how did you feel watching him? You know, cop it 2103 01:50:37,147 --> 01:50:39,587 Speaker 3: not just you know from the media fans on social media, 2104 01:50:39,627 --> 01:50:42,867 Speaker 3: but also having placed a cups thrown at him at 2105 01:50:42,867 --> 01:50:43,267 Speaker 3: one point. 2106 01:50:45,627 --> 01:50:47,707 Speaker 29: It was very tough because you know, he's my friend 2107 01:50:47,787 --> 01:50:51,107 Speaker 29: as well as my colleague, and I didn't like to 2108 01:50:51,147 --> 01:50:53,227 Speaker 29: see him suffer. And he's got a beautiful family and 2109 01:50:53,347 --> 01:50:54,627 Speaker 29: they suffer as well, so I. 2110 01:50:54,667 --> 01:50:55,307 Speaker 8: Didn't like that. 2111 01:50:55,427 --> 01:50:58,067 Speaker 29: And to be perfectly honest, I'm sort of relieved in 2112 01:50:58,187 --> 01:51:00,907 Speaker 29: many ways that he's resigned and we'll move into. 2113 01:51:00,747 --> 01:51:02,667 Speaker 9: Club football management now. 2114 01:51:02,747 --> 01:51:04,987 Speaker 29: One of the things we did with the team, and 2115 01:51:05,107 --> 01:51:07,667 Speaker 29: I learned this when I did my research before I 2116 01:51:07,787 --> 01:51:12,427 Speaker 29: started with helping them, was that they didn't really talk 2117 01:51:12,467 --> 01:51:14,947 Speaker 29: about what they were trying to eve. They didn't really 2118 01:51:14,987 --> 01:51:18,707 Speaker 29: talk too much about the purpose of playing for England 2119 01:51:18,747 --> 01:51:20,387 Speaker 29: and what it was to be English. Didn't talk about 2120 01:51:20,387 --> 01:51:22,227 Speaker 29: those things. I think the All Blacks are much more 2121 01:51:22,307 --> 01:51:25,147 Speaker 29: sophisticated in how they think about what the shirt represents. 2122 01:51:25,467 --> 01:51:28,147 Speaker 29: With England, you were expected to get it and put 2123 01:51:28,227 --> 01:51:30,267 Speaker 29: it on and play well. And one of the things 2124 01:51:30,307 --> 01:51:33,627 Speaker 29: that we learned was that some of the players, and 2125 01:51:33,867 --> 01:51:35,787 Speaker 29: I remember Michael Wowen told me this, is that some 2126 01:51:35,867 --> 01:51:37,907 Speaker 29: of the players really believe what the media was saying, 2127 01:51:38,107 --> 01:51:41,467 Speaker 29: and the media was saying in the Golden Generation years 2128 01:51:42,067 --> 01:51:46,627 Speaker 29: that you guys don't really care, that you're selfish, that 2129 01:51:46,867 --> 01:51:51,107 Speaker 29: you're technically not that great, that you're mentally weak, you 2130 01:51:51,187 --> 01:51:55,107 Speaker 29: can't take penalties. And one of the things Gareth did 2131 01:51:55,187 --> 01:51:58,947 Speaker 29: successfully is create a complete bubble around that external noise 2132 01:51:59,107 --> 01:52:03,267 Speaker 29: and just change the narrative to an internal, optimistic view 2133 01:52:03,347 --> 01:52:05,627 Speaker 29: of who we were and what we could become. 2134 01:52:06,427 --> 01:52:07,627 Speaker 9: Did an amazing job of that. 2135 01:52:07,747 --> 01:52:10,347 Speaker 29: And the players really did churn out from the external 2136 01:52:10,947 --> 01:52:14,547 Speaker 29: voices and focused on this much more positive story about 2137 01:52:14,587 --> 01:52:16,867 Speaker 29: how they could become. But to be honest, I could 2138 01:52:16,907 --> 01:52:19,427 Speaker 29: see it over the last few weeks it was still 2139 01:52:19,747 --> 01:52:23,347 Speaker 29: even getting through to him, the criticism and the negativity. 2140 01:52:23,427 --> 01:52:27,067 Speaker 29: And he's an honorable man and you know, if the 2141 01:52:27,187 --> 01:52:31,467 Speaker 29: fans wanted to change, then he would accept that, and 2142 01:52:31,547 --> 01:52:32,987 Speaker 29: that was part of his reasoning. 2143 01:52:33,587 --> 01:52:37,027 Speaker 3: When it comes to England overcoming that final obstacle and 2144 01:52:37,107 --> 01:52:39,787 Speaker 3: winning major trophies. I mean, as we've outlined under Gareth, 2145 01:52:39,827 --> 01:52:41,987 Speaker 3: you know, they've reached a couple of Euro finals, a 2146 01:52:42,107 --> 01:52:44,947 Speaker 3: semi final and a quarter final of a FIFA World Cup. 2147 01:52:44,987 --> 01:52:48,627 Speaker 3: When it comes to winning one of these, is it 2148 01:52:48,707 --> 01:52:51,747 Speaker 3: a mindset thing, or is it, as I said before, 2149 01:52:51,827 --> 01:52:56,907 Speaker 3: playing better football that's more important or other two inextricably linked. 2150 01:52:58,987 --> 01:53:02,707 Speaker 9: You know, it's football in particular, is such small margins? Really? 2151 01:53:02,787 --> 01:53:02,947 Speaker 12: Really? 2152 01:53:03,107 --> 01:53:07,267 Speaker 29: Is talking about interests decide massive games? The team is 2153 01:53:07,307 --> 01:53:09,347 Speaker 29: not far off, that's pretty obvious if you make two 2154 01:53:09,427 --> 01:53:11,707 Speaker 29: finals of the Euros. The first one they made went 2155 01:53:11,787 --> 01:53:15,587 Speaker 29: all the way through extra time and then to a 2156 01:53:15,627 --> 01:53:18,987 Speaker 29: penalty shootout, and then the second one was one all 2157 01:53:19,107 --> 01:53:21,147 Speaker 29: up to the eighty fifth minute, So they're not far away. 2158 01:53:21,547 --> 01:53:21,707 Speaker 8: You know. 2159 01:53:21,907 --> 01:53:24,867 Speaker 29: Again, there'll be football experts out there who will be 2160 01:53:24,947 --> 01:53:27,867 Speaker 29: able to point to some areas of detail that could 2161 01:53:27,907 --> 01:53:31,067 Speaker 29: be improved upon, no doubt, and some tactical ideas that 2162 01:53:31,267 --> 01:53:33,627 Speaker 29: probably will take the team to another level. 2163 01:53:35,307 --> 01:53:39,187 Speaker 9: I'm comfortable in saying that. But one thing that I 2164 01:53:39,347 --> 01:53:41,187 Speaker 9: have a slight fear of is that. 2165 01:53:42,307 --> 01:53:46,587 Speaker 29: Football in particular, there's this cult of personality around a coach, 2166 01:53:47,387 --> 01:53:49,307 Speaker 29: and well, what that sort of means is you put 2167 01:53:49,347 --> 01:53:52,747 Speaker 29: a coach in you don't necessarily really understand all their 2168 01:53:52,787 --> 01:53:56,947 Speaker 29: principles of play and how they approach things, their cultural blueprint. 2169 01:53:58,187 --> 01:54:00,347 Speaker 9: So when they leave, you ask. 2170 01:54:00,227 --> 01:54:03,187 Speaker 29: Someone else to take the job, and all those incredible 2171 01:54:03,267 --> 01:54:05,987 Speaker 29: learnings and the things that worked really well under the 2172 01:54:05,987 --> 01:54:08,867 Speaker 29: previous manager is sort of all thrown up in the 2173 01:54:08,947 --> 01:54:11,667 Speaker 29: year and the new manager has given complete discretion as 2174 01:54:11,707 --> 01:54:15,627 Speaker 29: to how they want to do these things. And you know, 2175 01:54:15,707 --> 01:54:19,627 Speaker 29: I don't that worries me because it's not about Garatuthgate 2176 01:54:19,667 --> 01:54:22,667 Speaker 29: and his personality and his coaching style. There were certain 2177 01:54:22,747 --> 01:54:26,027 Speaker 29: things that he discovered as manager, in particular what was 2178 01:54:26,067 --> 01:54:27,507 Speaker 29: the optimal environment. 2179 01:54:27,147 --> 01:54:30,547 Speaker 9: For English players, what they really enjoyed and thrived in. 2180 01:54:31,067 --> 01:54:33,547 Speaker 29: And I do fear that a new coach will come 2181 01:54:33,627 --> 01:54:36,067 Speaker 29: in not part of any of that experience and will 2182 01:54:36,147 --> 01:54:38,867 Speaker 29: just bring in their own ideas from a completely different context. 2183 01:54:39,427 --> 01:54:41,227 Speaker 29: I think the All Blacks are pretty good at protecting 2184 01:54:41,267 --> 01:54:43,467 Speaker 29: themselves about that. I think they know some of those 2185 01:54:43,547 --> 01:54:47,027 Speaker 29: things that work really well, and they want continuity. I 2186 01:54:47,107 --> 01:54:48,787 Speaker 29: think if a new coach wanted to be the All 2187 01:54:48,787 --> 01:54:51,347 Speaker 29: Blacks coach and said I don't really believe in play 2188 01:54:51,347 --> 01:54:54,307 Speaker 29: a leadership group something, I'm going to blow that up, 2189 01:54:54,747 --> 01:54:57,067 Speaker 29: I'm pretty sure they wouldn't get through the interview process. 2190 01:54:57,187 --> 01:55:01,627 Speaker 29: But in the Football Association England. You know, although they 2191 01:55:01,667 --> 01:55:04,147 Speaker 29: have engaged me for quite a long time, I'm slightly 2192 01:55:04,267 --> 01:55:08,467 Speaker 29: nervous they don't quite understand the reality of how he 2193 01:55:08,587 --> 01:55:11,667 Speaker 29: did get such consistently good performances out of that. 2194 01:55:12,547 --> 01:55:15,147 Speaker 3: Wait yeah, well wait and see just to finish in 2195 01:55:15,227 --> 01:55:18,827 Speaker 3: the fullness of time, and you know, with I guess 2196 01:55:18,987 --> 01:55:22,307 Speaker 3: a few years reflection back on on what Gareth Southgate 2197 01:55:22,347 --> 01:55:25,547 Speaker 3: achieved as England manager, what do you think is overriding 2198 01:55:25,667 --> 01:55:26,427 Speaker 3: legacy will be. 2199 01:55:28,507 --> 01:55:30,987 Speaker 9: Well, I think his overwriting legacy and it is one 2200 01:55:31,067 --> 01:55:35,027 Speaker 9: that I will always have a lot of. 2201 01:55:36,467 --> 01:55:39,627 Speaker 29: You know, pride in is that he took a team 2202 01:55:39,667 --> 01:55:44,107 Speaker 29: which were very uncompetitive. The last competition they played before 2203 01:55:44,147 --> 01:55:45,987 Speaker 29: he was a manager, they lost to Iceland in the 2204 01:55:46,067 --> 01:55:50,347 Speaker 29: round of sixteen, okay, and he took that team and 2205 01:55:50,507 --> 01:55:54,147 Speaker 29: made them extremely competitive and what walking you want from 2206 01:55:54,187 --> 01:55:58,107 Speaker 29: a coach. And yes, they still to win a trophy, 2207 01:55:58,627 --> 01:56:00,787 Speaker 29: So hopefully the next person can do that. But you know, 2208 01:56:00,987 --> 01:56:02,827 Speaker 29: I talk about the idea of fucker Barber and the 2209 01:56:02,907 --> 01:56:05,027 Speaker 29: idea of the sun moving down a line of people, 2210 01:56:05,147 --> 01:56:08,107 Speaker 29: and while the sun shine on him, he took a 2211 01:56:08,227 --> 01:56:11,027 Speaker 29: very uncompetitive team with I would say quite a dysfunctional 2212 01:56:11,107 --> 01:56:13,427 Speaker 29: culture and made them one of the best teams in 2213 01:56:13,467 --> 01:56:15,667 Speaker 29: the world. And now he's passed that on to someone 2214 01:56:15,947 --> 01:56:19,747 Speaker 29: who will come in next and that's a huge. 2215 01:56:19,747 --> 01:56:20,187 Speaker 9: Thing for him. 2216 01:56:20,187 --> 01:56:23,627 Speaker 3: Do you're proud of fascinating insight?
