Speaker 2: Clap Trap, brought to you by Export Vulture.
Speaker 1: Morning Lane. You're in the middle of school holiday. Hell yep,
Speaker 1: and we're also thrown in the mix of dog.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we've got someone at our house filming a flooring advert.
Speaker 1: Oh got good flooring bear well apparently.
Speaker 3: But they've had to leave the house at seven am
Speaker 3: with all the kids and the dog in school holidays,
Speaker 3: so the dogs another It's a real, real kind of night. Yeah,
Speaker 3: better left field for me because I'm a big anti
Speaker 3: bring the dogs to work. Yes kind of guy you are,
Speaker 3: and here you are. Yeah, but that's for necessity. I
Speaker 3: came in one door into a room, locked it in
Speaker 3: that room, and I'm going to go straight at the
Speaker 3: back door.
Speaker 1: I'm not going to parade it round looking for hugs.
Speaker 3: I'm not going to let it shit all over the
Speaker 3: floor and then rub it in with a non absorbent
Speaker 3: paper towel.
Speaker 1: Well, I don't know what it's doing in there right now.
Speaker 1: To be fair if there was a room to shoot.
Speaker 1: And it's that because genuinely the other day I thought
Speaker 1: it had stepped in dog shit and it turned out
Speaker 1: it was these boxes that were sitting next to my desk. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that had.
Speaker 3: The white ferns signed bats and the yes yeah one
Speaker 3: of those demauts will send to Yes, yep, we'll still
Speaker 3: get a couple.
Speaker 1: But I moved them into that room there because that's
Speaker 1: not like shit.
Speaker 3: Okay, don't blame my dog. Then people going it like ship,
Speaker 3: I'm going to go to the croocket.
Speaker 1: Crookd bats another steaming pile of dog ship that's on
Speaker 1: the floor. I happy birthday for yesterday. Thank you.
Speaker 3: Obviously took the day off to focus on what was
Speaker 3: what was important to you, and that was hanging out
Speaker 3: with your your partner, your life partner and partner.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, we did nothing too raucous to to report
Speaker 1: back after that. Once you get over a certain age,
Speaker 1: birthdays just sort of come and go, don't they do.
Speaker 1: You'd almost rather not mark the occasion.
Speaker 3: Not a lot of coming, just heaps to going, heaps
Speaker 3: to go.
Speaker 1: And I said to my partner this year, I was like, look, genuinely,
Speaker 1: don't get me anything, like whatever, give me card, whatever,
Speaker 1: And when guys say that, we genuinely mean that. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Okay, So if he's any female listeners out there, when
Speaker 3: it says, don't worry about it, I don't want anything,
Speaker 3: we actually mean it, not like you guys when I
Speaker 3: say you guys women who say don't give me anything,
Speaker 3: and then as soon as you don't, they just text
Speaker 3: all their friends.
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, they didn't give me anything. It's because they
Speaker 1: don't want to ask for it. They don't want to
Speaker 1: be seen to be asking for it. They want you
Speaker 1: to be like, I want to do this way. I
Speaker 1: want I want to whereas dudes and they said I
Speaker 1: give me they genuinely meant just I'm sweetly Yeah, I
Speaker 1: happily just park up on the couch, do nothing for
Speaker 1: a day at KFC and get a BJ And I
Speaker 1: did two out of three of those things. KFC was shut,
Speaker 1: but it wasn't. It was open. It's always open. So
Speaker 1: that's been my day. But the reason was I was like, look,
Speaker 1: we're going over to Germany this year. I've got a
Speaker 1: special envoy. On the way back, I have to do
Speaker 1: a tour of the Middle East to try wrangle up again. Yeah,
Speaker 1: to try and wrangle up funds for podcast washing. Yes,
Speaker 1: trying to get the Saudi suit case.
Speaker 3: And we're not just talking about us, we're talking about
Speaker 3: washing the entire sports podcast Yeah, we're not just thinking
Speaker 3: about ourselves.
Speaker 1: Obviously we'd be at the top of the list. We'll
Speaker 1: take our casts, yeah, absolutely, But I mean any of
Speaker 1: those young podcasts is out there looking at and even
Speaker 1: the old podcast is out there. Wil Simmons can have
Speaker 1: a bone. Yeah, we'd throw Salites our bone too. You know,
Speaker 1: he's trying to get things back up and running with
Speaker 1: the Sports Cafe.
Speaker 3: He'd happily accept the outy money. We'll wash those guys
Speaker 3: and they take them from strimps to strength.
Speaker 1: But to do that because we don't have the money yet,
Speaker 1: don't need a little bit of money to fund that
Speaker 1: trip around there. So that's why I said for my birthday,
Speaker 1: I don't want anything. I'd rather have the money that
Speaker 1: you'd spend them in. Now over there with my very
Speaker 1: important missions. So you can buy a dishdash. So I
Speaker 1: can buy a dishtash and you know, blend it, get
Speaker 1: a crispy fade type beard. Yeah. Well, the cat had
Speaker 1: other plans krok on the Friday, didn't eat all the
Speaker 1: way through to my birthday. So all day yesterday in
Speaker 1: the vet and all that money that I told her
Speaker 1: save wiped gone. How much did it cost to kill
Speaker 1: the cat? Well, this is a thang. How much petrol
Speaker 1: would have taken it back over a cat and the driveway? None?
Speaker 1: I know petrol's expensive, but they've just taken the regional
Speaker 1: field tex off would have been about twenty cents. But no,
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what. It's a she's an expensive habit. Well,
Speaker 1: and the other thing is this is my own fault
Speaker 1: for not having any sort of insurance. I generally go
Speaker 1: no insurance on anything and just risk it. I'm like,
Speaker 1: over the lifetime of a car, a pet, not a house.
Speaker 1: That's an exception. Yeah. Health, No, I don't have any
Speaker 1: health insurance. I'm just like, I'll roll the dice, and
Speaker 1: I figured it's going to be cheaper. Wow? Or was
Speaker 1: I wrong on this one? Exciting opportunity for anyone that
Speaker 1: wants to be the pet insurance sponsor of the Agenda podcast.
Speaker 1: Good fucking do it it? Yeah? Yeah, so yeah, anyway,
Speaker 1: the old cadade strikes again, and it's wiped out the debt.
Speaker 1: But yesterday I did have the chance to sit down
Speaker 1: and listen to the podcast You and Joe and I
Speaker 1: wanted to address someone that DMed the show and was like,
Speaker 1: we should the FUX South Canterbury Social Club jerseys. We
Speaker 1: should sell them and then send the funds back to
Speaker 1: the Heartland team so that they can go and challenge
Speaker 1: for the Shield. I literally posted that as soon as
Speaker 1: that thing came up. Did you I feel like someone
Speaker 1: read my comment. I don't think they initially intentionally plagiarized it.
Speaker 1: I think they read it, went away and then we're
Speaker 1: in the middle of the night. Well, I've got an idea,
Speaker 1: but he was. He was suggesting any team that win
Speaker 1: the Heartland I was suggesting any team we play against.
Speaker 3: Okay, now, he was suggesting any team that win the
Speaker 3: Heartland competition to help fund their Ramfly Shield challenge the
Speaker 3: following year we create merch for Yeah. Well, now, and
Speaker 3: you're saying, as South Canterbury have won at the last seven.
Speaker 1: Years, three years, so nothing's going to change there. Now
Speaker 1: I'm saying that I had that idea and I feel
Speaker 1: like it was plagiarized. But yeah, they've won every year
Speaker 1: for the last three years, so well, let's start.
Speaker 3: It's crowdfund because they're going to have to play either
Speaker 3: Whiteat or Hawks Bay.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was Hawks Bay this year. They couldn't afford
Speaker 1: to get up there. And I feel like we could
Speaker 1: have done something about it, if you know, because the
Speaker 1: story didn't come out until after it was already too late.
Speaker 1: Some people are saying they didn't want to go just
Speaker 1: purely because they'd give another spanking. Yeah, but why not
Speaker 1: go out there and get a spanking. It's the only
Speaker 1: game they've lost since what two thousand and one, and
Speaker 1: Hawks Bay may share some of the reason. That's a
Speaker 1: good point. Different stuff up there, different kind of reason.
Speaker 1: They've got different supplies. I wanted to address. Oh, the
Speaker 1: other thing I heard you said on the podcast was
Speaker 1: the chat about Graham and the review thing.
Speaker 3: They do do that every week every week he stands
Speaker 3: in that boardroom yes yeah, and justifies either bad decisions
Speaker 3: or good decisions yes.
Speaker 1: And this is why it pisses me off so much,
Speaker 1: because this happens almost every week, and it's like they'll
Speaker 1: come out on Monday and say, yeah, that shouldn't have
Speaker 1: been a penalty, or it should have been a penalty
Speaker 1: blah blah blah, and it's like, okay, well now what
Speaker 1: And even in that clip that you played yesterday, he
Speaker 1: was like, it's not good enough. You know, we expect
Speaker 1: to do better. It's like win because how many weeks
Speaker 1: in a row have you fucking stood up here and
Speaker 1: said the exact same thing? So at what point are
Speaker 1: you is saying it's not like it's not good enough? Okay?
Speaker 3: Well there were There's no consequence, isn't it. But I
Speaker 3: suppose that's them trying to be transparent. And I suppose
Speaker 3: it's wets where it's a little bit different to Rugby
Speaker 3: because Rugby has never come out no with that kind
Speaker 3: of analysis on referees, because otherwise they'd go that Georgian
Speaker 3: referee and go.
Speaker 1: Yeah yep, he was that probably might yeah, yeah, I know,
Speaker 1: and you're right, it is and if it to be
Speaker 1: transparent and to try and calm things down, but when
Speaker 1: things like this happen, it just infuriates people. I'd almost
Speaker 1: rather not hear that from them, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: And then I know, if you're them, you blood, well,
Speaker 1: then what do you want us to do?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 1: You can't you keep laying what do you want us
Speaker 1: to do? Well, what I want is you've got the bunker.
Speaker 1: You've got two people sitting in that bunker, you got
Speaker 1: a million replays. You're stopping the game down for the
Speaker 1: shit anyway? Get it right? Or been the bunker? Yeah,
Speaker 1: you can't. There can't be a review. That's the whole
Speaker 1: point of the bunker is to review what's going on
Speaker 1: the field. And he still sucked it up. It's like
Speaker 1: the bunker of they can only concentrate on one thing
Speaker 1: at a time. That was like they were focusing on
Speaker 1: he'd neck in contact. They didn't notice that it was
Speaker 1: seven seconds late? Yeah, how how can so? You couldn't
Speaker 1: see you didn't have the ball anyway? What I reckon
Speaker 1: the fix is because for that referee, I already can't
Speaker 1: remember who the referee was. He's going to go back
Speaker 1: to his Sydney apartment and none of his friends are
Speaker 1: ever going to bring it up with them because they're
Speaker 1: not Warriors fans. No one that he sees in the
Speaker 1: street this legism is ever going to bring it up
Speaker 1: because he's not at the pubs in Auckland in New
Speaker 1: Zealand and crush it. So what I want is a
Speaker 1: bit of accountability because there's an unconscious bias against the Warriors,
Speaker 1: and it's that they're not going to ever get called
Speaker 1: out for it. Let's move all the refs in New
Speaker 1: Zealand then step one, yes, put them up in South Auckland.
Speaker 1: Step two the players, if they have a shocker, they
Speaker 1: are expected to front up and talk to the media,
Speaker 1: and the media tear strips off them. Yeah, you dropped
Speaker 1: this ball, you missed this tackle, This was careless. You
Speaker 1: guys could have won if you had done this, You
Speaker 1: missed the cack whatever. Put the riff up there, I
Speaker 1: guess so. Like, but then if you are I'm gathering this.
Speaker 3: They struggle to recruit referees from junior level all the
Speaker 3: way through volunteering, all the way through to the professional level.
Speaker 3: And if you're if you're a volunteer and you're like,
Speaker 3: I want to be an NROL riff and then you've
Speaker 3: seen an NRA l rif getting scorn of shreds from
Speaker 3: making bad decisions like.
Speaker 1: I just stick to concrete lane, Well then here's another
Speaker 1: layer to that. They can wear whatever sponsors apparel they
Speaker 1: want in that interview as well, So this now becomes
Speaker 1: a cash generator for them. So they're going to sit
Speaker 1: in front of it, and this clip is going to
Speaker 1: go that one of the late shot from the weak
Speaker 1: gutted Dog jam and Salmon that would have gone viral.
Speaker 1: Everyone's playing it absolutely everywhere. He sets up there with
Speaker 1: an acc a gender podcast shit, and then we pay
Speaker 1: him in an export ultras And it's the roundabout.
Speaker 3: Way of having first hand witness the state of referees
Speaker 3: in age group rugby.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I think it's a tough road finding people to do it.
Speaker 3: We had a guy in the weekend who lost his
Speaker 3: complete rag at an under twelves team started calling all
Speaker 3: the players seeing next Tuesdays under twelve yeap eleven years old. Yeah,
Speaker 3: and he was calling them seeing next Tuesdays. This is
Speaker 3: the referee by the way, Wow, he absolutely lost his mind. Yeah,
Speaker 3: and so if that's the state of it, we probably
Speaker 3: need to encourage him a bit more. And maybe I
Speaker 3: don't know, it needs to be a memore a positive flight.
Speaker 3: He wasn't he wasn't in a good mental state when
Speaker 3: he was That referee got mentally disintegrated by eleven year olds.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's weak. I don't know. There needs to
Speaker 1: be some sort of it was silverdelle those we can't
Speaker 1: just keep having this happen, and it's like, okay, so
Speaker 1: you've done at us again? Yeah, and that was like sorry,
Speaker 1: I know, well, how many times would you It's one
Speaker 1: of these things.
Speaker 3: Beginning to live with it, and now I think that's
Speaker 3: where they how the Warriors, I think for the first time,
Speaker 3: I think it was last year, they had a bit
Speaker 3: of a come to Jesus moment where they are like,
Speaker 3: this is our lot. We're always going to get the
Speaker 3: rubber of the grass while we have to play an
Speaker 3: extra ten percent better than the other team to actually
Speaker 3: yeah when but.
Speaker 1: It's become even harder because the six again thing. You
Speaker 1: don't even know what the six again was for and
Speaker 1: you never stopped the reviewer, so you'll never see that.
Speaker 1: So it's like, yeah, yes, we're getting those ten percent
Speaker 1: extra calls. Now they are even more disguised, so it's like, fuck,
Speaker 1: how can you actually anyway? Speaking of what every week?
Speaker 3: Speaking of which, the penalty that got against Damie McKenzie
Speaker 3: iMac was it a penalty or was a scrum?
Speaker 1: Was it a scrum or a penalty a time waste?
Speaker 1: They call it a short anyway, So they're bringing bringing
Speaker 1: the shot clock to the big screen. This has driven me,
Speaker 1: it's the most rugby shit of all time to be like, hey,
Speaker 1: we've got a shot clock. You're like, okay, where is it? Yeah,
Speaker 1: because when they brought shot clocks into basketball, every high
Speaker 1: school gym in the country had one. Whether it worked
Speaker 1: or not, they had one. It's on top of the
Speaker 1: fucking hope that you're shooting at cricket, have a cracket,
Speaker 1: have a clock. Shot Now a shot clock.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so between overs that actually counts down?
Speaker 1: Oh really yeah?
Speaker 3: So World Cup you would have seen that they have
Speaker 3: a minute to change in.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's it. And so you can't bring in a
Speaker 1: rule like a shot clock and not have the shot
Speaker 1: clock there. Yeah, it makes no sense because how One,
Speaker 1: how's the kicker supposed to know? Two? It adds a
Speaker 1: bit of drama for the for the fans as well,
Speaker 1: because they're watching the thing Jannis and the Greek freak.
Speaker 1: He was taking so long to shoot his free throws
Speaker 1: that they brought in a shot clock for that, And
Speaker 1: so because fans were sitting on the sideline counting as
Speaker 1: he's shooting his free remember that. Yeah, and so now
Speaker 1: they've had to bring in the shot clock there. But
Speaker 1: it's like, I don't know, you can't say you've brought
Speaker 1: on a shot clock when you actually haven't. And if
Speaker 1: you're not gonna the clock, where's the shot clock? Where's
Speaker 1: the clock? Yeah? Exactly, you haven't brought in a shot
Speaker 1: clock because there isn't one. I can't see it. Don't
Speaker 1: leave it up to Georgian referee who's under immense pressure
Speaker 1: just to blow the whistle. Also, like, you know, so
Speaker 1: we go one Mississippi two Missus be how long does
Speaker 1: that take to say? In Georgian? It could be way quicker? Yeah,
Speaker 1: evidently it was. He's he's like doing, what's the biggest
Speaker 1: river in Europe? The Danube? One Danube? Two Danius. It's
Speaker 1: got quicker than one Mississippi. Yeah, that's right, that's a
Speaker 1: good point. One one Tigris one New Friddy's one. Why uh?
Speaker 1: But what I don't understand this weekend is going to
Speaker 1: be I know there's a massive screen at one end. Oh,
Speaker 1: there is another screen at the other end, but it's
Speaker 1: off to the side. I suppose that's good enough, isn't it? Yeah?
Speaker 1: And yeah, and it's what is it?
Speaker 3: I think, but I heard in Super Rugby the referee,
Speaker 3: well go you got you got the twenty seconds, yeah,
Speaker 3: you got fifteen, you got, you've got ten seconds.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like I've heard that Georgian riverage is iced every
Speaker 1: one out. Yeahs last ten minutes. Yeah. He was like,
Speaker 1: wasn't talking anyone, He was like, fact fair in fact,
Speaker 1: don't be the one who makes the zep Yeah, because
Speaker 1: you know, planes get shot down for this kind of
Speaker 1: ship back where he's from. So I don't know, there's
Speaker 1: going to be a shock. Like that'll be the end
Speaker 1: of that. We'll never have to deal with it again.
Speaker 1: Just quickly before we go to an air break. Lulusun,
Speaker 1: who's been the biggest story of the sporting world in
Speaker 1: New Zealand here for the last three days. She got
Speaker 1: knocked out this morning out of three sets. So she
Speaker 1: made a good, good fist of it. Knocked out of
Speaker 1: the competition. She became the first New Zealand woman to
Speaker 1: reach the Wimbledon quarter finals in the open era. She
Speaker 1: lost to Croati has done a Vickage in three sets.
Speaker 1: The match against Vickage, because she had to qualify, was
Speaker 1: her eighth match, but Vickage only this was her fifth. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so you know, if you if you shift, you know,
Speaker 1: time adjusted. She actually won Wimbledon.
Speaker 3: Yeah, from tier now as well, from tennis club. I
Speaker 3: heard the chairman of the tennis club getting interviewed.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's pretty funny.
Speaker 3: It's pretty it's pretty funny, like they've just got a
Speaker 3: club with you know, three or four courts.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: She spent a few teenage years there, and she would
Speaker 3: spank all the senior men's champions as a thirteen year old,
Speaker 3: and then when she comes home for holidays, she just
Speaker 3: brings them up and goes, can I use a court
Speaker 3: for a bit? I need can you get me some
Speaker 3: people to head it angst? And again they roll out
Speaker 3: the champion men's senior player. It just gets schooled.
Speaker 1: They'll probably take the summer off this time around.
Speaker 3: They might have to hire Andreagison's dragon or whatever to
Speaker 3: spit balls back.
Speaker 1: Down at here. Yeah, she might go and train in
Speaker 1: the glow womb caves, just hitting balls into the glow
Speaker 1: womb caves all night. But anyway, it was it was
Speaker 1: a massive effort and it's good stuff because really got
Speaker 1: the country and behind.
Speaker 3: It's good stuff because I had no idea, we had
Speaker 3: even a professional woman's player on the circuit.
Speaker 1: You.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and if someone said it, what's the name, I wouldn't.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have a close So great, it's great. On
Speaker 1: the game lat she plays with Coco Golf, Paula red Cliff, Yeah,
Speaker 1: Paula Redcliffe, Danuel Redclif don't know we do have one.
Speaker 1: But yeah, you're right, I didn't know that. I didn't know.
Speaker 1: Bring on, bring on the US Open, and that everyone
Speaker 1: loves her. They've asked for her racket to chuck in
Speaker 1: the museum there as well, and no, yeah, they want
Speaker 1: to put it in Wimbledon. I'm just slid off his
Speaker 1: chair laughing there. I think there was a coughing fit.
Speaker 1: I don't know if i'd stopped down for too long
Speaker 1: that if I was the wimbled miss him, I mean
Speaker 1: I would, But like if I'm is it the furtherest
Speaker 1: a qualifier has got and wimbled? I want to say
Speaker 1: a canoe. She was in the US Open. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: so it's a key we related one anyway, God blives her.
Speaker 1: It was great work. I think the US opens next
Speaker 1: on the Yes tour as far as the Grand Slams go.
Speaker 3: So the way she smacks it the way. She's got
Speaker 3: a pretty high risk game. She absolutely goes for the winners,
Speaker 3: and you know, if you smash into the net, if
Speaker 3: you go long. But obviously, due to her getting as
Speaker 3: father the majority we're in that would that be conducive
Speaker 3: to her? This is me blindly going through tennis. Ye
Speaker 3: would a hard court be a better surface for her?
Speaker 3: If she's absolutely smoking it rather than the grass so
Speaker 3: she's a little bit slower, or it's a little bit lower,
Speaker 3: or the fact that the grass takes a bit of
Speaker 3: heat off actually amplifies her advantage because she's then heading
Speaker 3: it that much harder than everyone else.
Speaker 1: Again, we're out of our lane. Here, our lane. Who's
Speaker 1: the best tennis player? You know? Who knows tennis? One
Speaker 1: got anyone? Wells played Wells plays like a Steff old
Speaker 1: Man down at Ymria Rackets. Yeah, yeah, that's a cultural thing.
Speaker 1: I think. Well, we're going to find out at the
Speaker 1: US Open, aren't we. Yeah, that's a few weeks away.
Speaker 1: We have to get a tennis expert onto to break
Speaker 1: that down. All right, We're going to take a quick
Speaker 1: break and we come back. We're going to swerve way
Speaker 1: out of our lane again with a bit more Euros chat.
Speaker 1: All right, the Europs are going on at them, you
Speaker 1: already upset them. We've been watching a lot of the
Speaker 1: Europe's lately. We watched them over breakfast, over the weekend
Speaker 1: and this morning again on in the office, and everyone's
Speaker 1: crowded around because we in our office there's heaps of
Speaker 1: TV screens, but we're the only ones with the remote
Speaker 1: so we can change the sports.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're the only TV that you can actually shift
Speaker 3: the channel.
Speaker 1: Everyone else has corporate propaganda, yeah, getting brainwashed, but we
Speaker 1: always have it on. So people start crowding around, and
Speaker 1: it's amazing that people who are into the Euros of
Speaker 1: the Europs at the moment.
Speaker 3: Well, this is the pointy end of Europe's so that's
Speaker 3: why it's And people are interested in England are involved. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I mean if it was non England, I don't know
Speaker 3: af the interest levels would be that.
Speaker 1: It was a couple of former Yugoslavs, then maybe not.
Speaker 1: But this morning Spain beat France two one two one
Speaker 1: a goldfest compared to the rest of the games. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was. It was. It was almost a goal of
Speaker 1: half hour in that game. Also, Spain have a child
Speaker 1: in their team. I don't know if you've seen this. No,
Speaker 1: this sixteen year old in their team. And Spain is
Speaker 1: a big country who soccer is their main sport. So
Speaker 1: to be sixteen and to make it, and like, how
Speaker 1: good must this could have been just a few months ago?
Speaker 1: It was fifteen? You know, what were you doing when
Speaker 1: you were sixteen? Nothing? This is I think I think
Speaker 1: about this all the time. You know, every now and
Speaker 1: then you talk about when did you know you weren't
Speaker 1: going to be an All Black? For me, it was basketball,
Speaker 1: you know, because I made the North Otago team when
Speaker 1: I was a kid, and I was like, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: make the NBA here. And then I was watching the
Speaker 1: two thousand and eight Olympics and Ricky Rubio was playing
Speaker 1: again for Spain and he was fifteen and I was
Speaker 1: fifteen two, and I was like, ah, you're probably not
Speaker 1: gonna make it, am I if he's already in the
Speaker 1: Olympics playing against Lebron and Kobe and shit, And I'm like, Otago,
Speaker 1: you have enough players to make the team. So I
Speaker 1: got in, you're crossing over kids from South Canterbury. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: South Otago, Eastga fuck Ito. So yeah, but I think
Speaker 1: that would have been a big wake up call for
Speaker 1: a lot of sixteen year old soccer players. Yeah. Oh,
Speaker 1: because it's not like there's any shortage of Spanish soccer players. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're looking good though Spain.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think Piney said when we got them on,
Speaker 3: he said, that's your form team, the favorites Espanol and
Speaker 3: he had that wild card in Turkey and they very
Speaker 3: nearly made it Turkey.
Speaker 1: They were sort of the darlings of the tournament, weren't they.
Speaker 1: They call them Turkey, now you call Turkey. They were
Speaker 1: playing so well people had to start pronouncing the name
Speaker 1: of the country properly. Yeah. Is that a Is that
Speaker 1: a shift? Is that because all the comments are calling
Speaker 1: him took it? Yeah, It's like it's the equivalent of
Speaker 1: when a Polynesian player joins the n r L and
Speaker 1: has a breakout season and then halfway through the season
Speaker 1: has to be like hey, just so he goes, no,
Speaker 1: it's I saw Malawi and everyone oh okay, because I thought,
Speaker 1: can we kill you? Funny it was. It was Joseph
Speaker 1: Swahili for the first year of his his career and
Speaker 1: then everyone's like, oh, so, yeah, it's taken Turkey. I
Speaker 1: don't know what, how long has that been a country?
Speaker 1: Just one hundred years? We just gotta heather around the
Speaker 1: Ottoman empire. Tell us that your turkey. Yeah, well we
Speaker 1: can handle the bird turkey and all that. Yeah, fine,
Speaker 1: do you think they tongue around? But I'm also like
Speaker 1: countries always have a different name than the English name. Yeah,
Speaker 1: than the English name. But then Japan Nippon Nippon. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but then you call them Nippon? Yeah? Should we? Now?
Speaker 1: I don't know that's where the term nips comes from?
Speaker 1: What like nipples? Why? What you know? Okay, during the
Speaker 1: war anyway, Please don't English. The English face the Dutch
Speaker 1: tomorrow morning at seven am and those that will just
Speaker 1: decide who's going to go in the final against Spain.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so the rod Cones versus English. This is going
Speaker 3: to be a great game because every English fan is terrified.
Speaker 3: Yeah their heart, their hearts says, but their heads like going.
Speaker 3: But I said to a couple of English mates who
Speaker 3: are quite pumped about this. I said, after the disappointment
Speaker 3: of the last Euros, where you were red hot all
Speaker 3: the way through, Paul play all the way through the knockouts,
Speaker 3: went to the final against Italy as hot favorites and
Speaker 3: choked and you lost.
Speaker 1: At least this way around, it's been rocky. Yeah, you've
Speaker 1: started terribly, You've farted your way through penalties. You might
Speaker 1: just pull this off by coming right for the last
Speaker 1: two games. Yeah. So and they're like, now, God excited
Speaker 1: and I see he's still going to lose. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: got I hope, I hope they do.
Speaker 3: Look at the final. I want them to beat Netherlands.
Speaker 3: I wanted them to beat the road Cones because I
Speaker 3: just love England and final. Yeah, I just love them
Speaker 3: in a final of everything because everyone goes crazy, particularly.
Speaker 1: Sports they invented. Yes, I don't believe they invented. You
Speaker 1: can't tell me. No one was kicking something around before
Speaker 1: that was the probably once first put the rules in.
Speaker 1: I'm sure. I'm sure there were Chinese people kicking around.
Speaker 3: Heads well before that. Yeah, kicking around Mongolian warrior's heads. Yeah,
Speaker 3: that's right for ships and giggles. But they weren't doing
Speaker 3: keepy uppies and putting it into the back of a net.
Speaker 1: Yeah. It's a lot like the English saying that they
Speaker 1: invented America pivo. Yeah, as we know it today. Sure,
Speaker 1: but people were doing America before you got it anyway. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to them getting knocked out in the
Speaker 1: final as well. I think it'll be tremendous. Now I
Speaker 1: have released all of my hostages. I was not getting
Speaker 1: in any information out of Raiser's camp. New set up,
Speaker 1: isn't it set up? They don't. They don't stand for blackmail,
Speaker 1: tight lips. They don't stand for black mail. Also, they
Speaker 1: can't be blackmailed, and that's because they actually don't know
Speaker 1: who the team's going to be until Raiser actually farts
Speaker 1: it out, until Razor actually farts it out. So I've
Speaker 1: had to consult the crystals now because you know, I'm
Speaker 1: not getting any information if you've just started listening to
Speaker 1: this podcast. I used to have sources inside the All
Speaker 1: Blacks camp that would tell me who the team's going
Speaker 1: to be, team's name tomorrow. I can no longer trust
Speaker 1: these sources, so I've had to consult the crystals. It
Speaker 1: is my birthday yesterday, so I'm in my you know,
Speaker 1: my astrological whatever era. My mercury is in retrogade grade. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: I'm a cancer. You are literally, Yeah, I am a
Speaker 1: cancer in the locker room, and I've consulted the crystals.
Speaker 1: This crystals all around my scullness and the amethyst. Anyway, Okay,
Speaker 1: here's the team. The forward pack stays the same. I
Speaker 1: don't think makes a single change. There's no injuries to
Speaker 1: worry about. There is there no look, I agree that.
Speaker 3: I don't think anyone played themselves out of the team
Speaker 3: and the Ford pack, they were a bit quiet. We
Speaker 3: didn't see much of Summer Penny. No, Papallini was a
Speaker 3: bit quiet. Even to Apolo too, was pretty quite. But
Speaker 3: first game, first game, I thought the scrum was dominant. Yes,
Speaker 3: the rucking was dominant. We turned over a number of
Speaker 3: balls with our rucking.
Speaker 1: Artie looks great. Yep, So I agree. I agree with
Speaker 1: those crystals. No changes. TJ's out. Yes, that means Christie isn't.
Speaker 1: I don't think that's too big a revelation. I think
Speaker 1: the crystals have done you good. I see three more changes. Okay,
Speaker 1: I see Caleb Clark starting at number eleven through no
Speaker 1: fault of Mark Taliers. The crystals are just telling me
Speaker 1: Caleb Clark gets a run this weekend instead of he
Speaker 1: did nothing wrong. I know he did nothing wrong. I
Speaker 1: just feel like I feel like ras is going to
Speaker 1: look at it and just go he's at home Jabb
Speaker 1: of the Butts homeland. He's in Eden Park. Is that
Speaker 1: what you're saying.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I also feel like it's also Mark Telly's homeground as well.
Speaker 1: Yeah it is. I also just feel like the air
Speaker 1: Wingers aren't huge, and I feel like if you could
Speaker 1: just get a hard running bloke like Caler Clark in there,
Speaker 1: I think I think Raiser bins Rico and I think
Speaker 1: he brings dough Bro in. Rico doesn't feel like a
Speaker 1: Scott Robertson kind of player. I think the same reason
Speaker 1: that he left Setutu out of the squad, yeah, is
Speaker 1: the reason why this weekend he drops Rico. That's when
Speaker 1: Doughbro comes to thirteen and Doughbro comes into thirteen. I
Speaker 1: can't argue with that. Yep. That's a solid cent appearing
Speaker 1: of Jordian Dobro. And I think Bowden comes in at
Speaker 1: full back for the Cheese for the cheese again through
Speaker 1: no fault of the cheese at all. I just felt
Speaker 1: like Razer wanted to bring him on earlier. I feel
Speaker 1: like maybe there was some sort of if it was
Speaker 1: rust or niggle or some sort of injury. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I just feel like you don't bring Boden Barrett into
Speaker 1: your squad unless you think that you're going to start
Speaker 1: him right, and you're not going to start them at
Speaker 1: first five over d max. He starts at fifteen. That's
Speaker 1: what the crystals are saying. It's not bad. It's not bad,
Speaker 1: but I do.
Speaker 3: It's only Kayleb Clark coming in for Mark Tellier, which
Speaker 3: I'm a little bit. The rest of it, I can't
Speaker 3: argue with the crystals.
Speaker 1: We'll find out tomorrow at about eleven thirty, just before
Speaker 1: we get to an airbreak. It is a Wednesday. I've
Speaker 1: got a half Bake sports idea, a very quick one
Speaker 1: to run past you. Yes, let's do it out Half
Speaker 1: b Sports. Off the back of Damien McKenzie being done
Speaker 1: for shot clock violation, they're now bringing in a shot clock.
Speaker 1: I think we moved that into real life shot clock
Speaker 1: for slow talkers. If I ask you a question and
Speaker 1: the answer can only be A or B, the shot
Speaker 1: clock starts yep, you got twenty four seconds to answer,
Speaker 1: and then I'm fucking swinging And I think this goes
Speaker 1: for and where does it show up? The shot clock
Speaker 1: on your forehead or yes, yeah, okay, on my fore head. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it just comes up maybe if I've got the Google glasses, Yeah.
Speaker 3: And it's just on my over my lenses or it's
Speaker 3: a heads up display like you know, and then you
Speaker 3: cars yes, yeah, exactly, and it just flashes up and
Speaker 3: it's like, hey, I've asked you, is that this or that?
Speaker 1: And if you start giving me a like a rundown
Speaker 1: of why, it couldn't be the third thing, I'm out
Speaker 1: violation turnovers. A turn over mean you can just walk
Speaker 1: away from the conversation. I think, Yeah, I've been around.
Speaker 1: The only problem is I've asked you a question and
Speaker 1: I still need to know the answer. I don't. I
Speaker 1: don't think it's a bad idea.
Speaker 3: I think it also a shot clock around storytellers and
Speaker 3: some people who don't realize that a story needs a start,
Speaker 3: a middle, and crucially an end. Yes, obviously, people sometimes
Speaker 3: just fart around the middle and then and there's no
Speaker 3: real end. So if there's some sort of shot clock
Speaker 3: around that as well, Yeah, can I stop you?
Speaker 1: There's this story got a start. Obviously you've started, and
Speaker 1: you've got a juicy middle and a proper end.
Speaker 3: And if they say no out, But if they say, yeah, ago,
Speaker 3: you got two minutes, sweet carry you?
Speaker 1: Yeah. Have you thought about whether this would be interesting
Speaker 1: to the person you're telling it too? Yeah? If the
Speaker 1: arts is not bad? Have you thought about who else
Speaker 1: is in the room? Yeah? If you considered the fact
Speaker 1: that there are other people in the room, they don't
Speaker 1: give a shit about how your day's gone. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: just think that there's sometimes particularly when you're in a
Speaker 1: short mood, you know, had a long day at work.
Speaker 1: I remember one day pulling up to a restaurant were
Speaker 1: going out for dinner. We had a reservation, and there
Speaker 1: was a massive group milling about outside, and I was
Speaker 1: just like, are you guys in the queue to get
Speaker 1: into the door or are you guys just waiting around
Speaker 1: for someone else or something? He goes, well, the funny
Speaker 1: thing is, man like this morning when we made the reservation,
Speaker 1: I was like, hey, man, there's fucking two answers here
Speaker 1: and none of them are this morning when I made
Speaker 1: the reservation, are you ready to get in the door
Speaker 1: or can I just walk past it? And I said
Speaker 1: that to her because I'd had a long day. It
Speaker 1: was just flabbergasted. The group I was with laughing their asses.
Speaker 1: I just walked straight past it. I was like, sorry, man,
Speaker 1: you caught me on a bad day. But fuck I
Speaker 1: do I do play that game internally in my head
Speaker 1: quite a lot. Yeah.
Speaker 3: It's like someone's talking and I'm like, God, I am
Speaker 3: so clocked out of this conversation right now.
Speaker 1: Yeah, long internal monologue. Shot clock. It's an important asset
Speaker 1: to have a lot of people that we meet across
Speaker 1: the weekend told me that they listen to this podcast
Speaker 1: where they going to sleep, So potentially it should be
Speaker 1: a shot clock on some of our yards. Anyway, it's
Speaker 1: just expired on the segment, so we're going to take
Speaker 1: a quick break and we'll come back with yours please, yours.

Speaker 1: bird song in the background. It was, wasn't It's quite

Speaker 3: get a pre game going to that, go to ash Burton,
Speaker 3: go to Ashburton and put an Ultra pregame on. First
Speaker 3: of all, maybe not for the players, although they would
Speaker 3: make the game a bit more interesting and then had
