1 00:00:07,173 --> 00:00:10,493 Speaker 1: You're listening to the Saturday Morning with Jack team podcast 2 00:00:10,613 --> 00:00:11,493 Speaker 1: from News Talks. 3 00:00:11,493 --> 00:00:14,333 Speaker 2: A'd be it's time to catch up with our sporto 4 00:00:14,493 --> 00:00:17,853 Speaker 2: Andrew Saville and sav what a weekend of sport we have. 5 00:00:17,973 --> 00:00:21,333 Speaker 2: You got your Euros, You've got the black Cats versus Uganda, 6 00:00:21,373 --> 00:00:22,853 Speaker 2: which I know is going to have the nation come 7 00:00:22,933 --> 00:00:25,333 Speaker 2: to a standstill after mid day today and of course 8 00:00:25,373 --> 00:00:26,693 Speaker 2: the Super Rugby semi finals. 9 00:00:26,773 --> 00:00:28,053 Speaker 3: Let's start with Super Rugby. 10 00:00:28,693 --> 00:00:32,733 Speaker 2: The Blues from the word go last night never never 11 00:00:32,813 --> 00:00:34,573 Speaker 2: really looked like losing to the Brumbies. 12 00:00:34,653 --> 00:00:37,213 Speaker 3: It was. It was an extraordinary start to the game. 13 00:00:37,253 --> 00:00:39,773 Speaker 2: The Brumbies, you know, worked their way back into it 14 00:00:39,813 --> 00:00:42,053 Speaker 2: a little bit, but it always felt like it was 15 00:00:42,093 --> 00:00:42,973 Speaker 2: the Blues to lose. 16 00:00:42,813 --> 00:00:44,773 Speaker 4: In the end. Yeah, I think the game was pretty 17 00:00:44,813 --> 00:00:49,093 Speaker 4: much gone after twenty thirty minutes. Jack. They let's not 18 00:00:49,173 --> 00:00:51,693 Speaker 4: forget some of the Brumbies and the regular season on 19 00:00:51,893 --> 00:00:54,893 Speaker 4: Eden Park as well, and pretty much similar story last night. 20 00:00:55,493 --> 00:00:59,613 Speaker 4: A shame that the crowd wasn't bigger. But it's a 21 00:00:59,653 --> 00:01:02,413 Speaker 4: Friday night, or it was a wet Friday in Auckland 22 00:01:02,413 --> 00:01:04,813 Speaker 4: and a dance Friday night in Auckland. Difficult to get 23 00:01:04,853 --> 00:01:07,253 Speaker 4: to straight up to work for a lot of people, 24 00:01:07,333 --> 00:01:09,733 Speaker 4: So that was the crowd was disappointing, I thought, But 25 00:01:09,733 --> 00:01:12,373 Speaker 4: the rugby was pretty good from the Blues were very 26 00:01:12,373 --> 00:01:15,573 Speaker 4: good early on and pretty good overall. So they will 27 00:01:15,573 --> 00:01:19,213 Speaker 4: now await the winner of today's or this afternoon. You 28 00:01:19,253 --> 00:01:21,813 Speaker 4: can see me between the Canes and the Chiefs. Really 29 00:01:21,813 --> 00:01:26,413 Speaker 4: interesting match this. The Hurricanes beat the Chiefs twice during 30 00:01:27,933 --> 00:01:30,773 Speaker 4: the regular season. They're at home, they'll have a huge 31 00:01:30,813 --> 00:01:36,053 Speaker 4: amount of crowd support the Hurricanes. But the Chiefs, they've 32 00:01:36,053 --> 00:01:39,133 Speaker 4: sort of been forgotten about by a lot of people 33 00:01:39,373 --> 00:01:41,973 Speaker 4: flying under the radar. But the way they played against 34 00:01:42,013 --> 00:01:45,533 Speaker 4: Queensland last week and are pretty much at full strength. 35 00:01:46,653 --> 00:01:48,693 Speaker 4: I've had to wrest all black guys the last few 36 00:01:48,733 --> 00:01:51,173 Speaker 4: weeks on and off. They had a few injuries like 37 00:01:51,253 --> 00:01:53,893 Speaker 4: every other team. But the Chiefs are pretty much a 38 00:01:53,973 --> 00:01:56,213 Speaker 4: full strength, so I'd give them a chance. I'd give 39 00:01:56,253 --> 00:01:58,733 Speaker 4: them a real chance of giving the Hurricanes a real crack. 40 00:01:58,973 --> 00:02:00,293 Speaker 4: What about them this afternoon? 41 00:02:00,333 --> 00:02:02,693 Speaker 3: What about the Warriors tonight? Do you give them a 42 00:02:02,773 --> 00:02:03,693 Speaker 3: chance against the storm? 43 00:02:03,773 --> 00:02:05,653 Speaker 4: Interesting is that I don't think. I don't think the 44 00:02:05,773 --> 00:02:08,093 Speaker 4: drawer or the timing's route last Saturday were they but 45 00:02:08,173 --> 00:02:10,333 Speaker 4: to put the rugby union, the big big semi final 46 00:02:10,333 --> 00:02:12,653 Speaker 4: at four thirty in the Warriors is the feature game 47 00:02:12,693 --> 00:02:14,613 Speaker 4: at seven thirty. I didn't think I'd ever see the day, 48 00:02:14,653 --> 00:02:17,773 Speaker 4: but it's good on them for thinking of the sports 49 00:02:17,773 --> 00:02:21,293 Speaker 4: fans in general who want to take them. The Warriors 50 00:02:21,293 --> 00:02:23,533 Speaker 4: haven't beaten the Storm. I think it's for nine years, 51 00:02:23,533 --> 00:02:27,373 Speaker 4: which is quite remarkable. Gee, if they're going to beat 52 00:02:27,413 --> 00:02:30,733 Speaker 4: them now, it's as good a chance as any sewn 53 00:02:30,813 --> 00:02:35,333 Speaker 4: Johnson coming back into the team might might throw their 54 00:02:35,373 --> 00:02:38,213 Speaker 4: plan off a little bit given the way they've been playing, 55 00:02:38,213 --> 00:02:41,693 Speaker 4: but Johnson obviously a very good player, so I'd give 56 00:02:41,693 --> 00:02:44,133 Speaker 4: them a big, big chance. At home, that game has 57 00:02:44,173 --> 00:02:46,493 Speaker 4: been sold out for weeks. In fact, I think the Warriors, 58 00:02:46,813 --> 00:02:50,133 Speaker 4: if they haven't already, are about to sell out every 59 00:02:50,173 --> 00:02:50,693 Speaker 4: home game. 60 00:02:52,693 --> 00:02:54,293 Speaker 3: So impressive, which is amazing. 61 00:02:54,773 --> 00:02:58,093 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, that is just astanding game. 62 00:02:58,813 --> 00:02:59,773 Speaker 3: Are you into the Euros? 63 00:02:59,813 --> 00:03:04,013 Speaker 4: Do you get into the game? I have World Cups 64 00:03:04,053 --> 00:03:08,693 Speaker 4: and I love European Champion Ships Premier League yet yeah, 65 00:03:08,693 --> 00:03:11,013 Speaker 4: I've taken interest in that and also Champions League. But 66 00:03:11,013 --> 00:03:15,733 Speaker 4: there's something special about especially the international games on at 67 00:03:15,773 --> 00:03:19,053 Speaker 4: breakfast time, out of time, getting up a little bit earlier, 68 00:03:19,613 --> 00:03:23,453 Speaker 4: taking it in huge atmosphuerees obviously in every one of 69 00:03:23,493 --> 00:03:27,893 Speaker 4: these euro Games because the fans can use your access 70 00:03:27,893 --> 00:03:30,213 Speaker 4: to these games and say a World Cup. But the 71 00:03:30,293 --> 00:03:33,893 Speaker 4: Germans took on Scotland this morning and looked very German like, didn't. 72 00:03:33,693 --> 00:03:37,333 Speaker 3: They It was just it was it was clinical five. 73 00:03:37,693 --> 00:03:39,773 Speaker 4: Every every time they had a chance, the pretty much 74 00:03:39,773 --> 00:03:40,973 Speaker 4: struck as a five to one. 75 00:03:41,933 --> 00:03:44,333 Speaker 2: I'm going to read you the text conversation with my 76 00:03:44,413 --> 00:03:47,253 Speaker 2: brother in law. Okay, so he said, you're excited? Are 77 00:03:47,213 --> 00:03:49,933 Speaker 2: you fizzing for this weekend? I said yeah, like about 78 00:03:49,933 --> 00:03:53,493 Speaker 2: the Euros, I said yes, although very gutted about who 79 00:03:53,533 --> 00:03:55,613 Speaker 2: I ended up with in the in the work sweepstake. 80 00:03:55,733 --> 00:03:59,653 Speaker 2: Who did you get Georgia? That's my team, so not not. 81 00:03:59,573 --> 00:04:02,213 Speaker 3: Having at Georgia. 82 00:04:02,373 --> 00:04:05,093 Speaker 2: Yeah, and he and then he said, I'm pretty sure 83 00:04:05,133 --> 00:04:08,693 Speaker 2: Germany is honestly work this year. They only qualified by default. 84 00:04:09,213 --> 00:04:12,133 Speaker 2: And then I texted him at eight fifty eight this 85 00:04:12,293 --> 00:04:14,893 Speaker 2: morning after the Germans walked off that pitch five to 86 00:04:14,893 --> 00:04:17,733 Speaker 2: one victors, and I said, dot dot dot and he said, yeah, 87 00:04:17,773 --> 00:04:19,573 Speaker 2: it's probably a good thing. I'm not a beating man. 88 00:04:20,493 --> 00:04:25,853 Speaker 4: Although Scotland were fairly limited and they had a guy 89 00:04:25,933 --> 00:04:28,933 Speaker 4: sent off as well. A nasty challenge in the box, 90 00:04:29,013 --> 00:04:29,573 Speaker 4: wasn't it. 91 00:04:31,213 --> 00:04:31,733 Speaker 3: Yeah. 92 00:04:32,093 --> 00:04:36,453 Speaker 4: I think France will be their typical attacking selves. I 93 00:04:36,453 --> 00:04:38,933 Speaker 4: think there's a step I heard yesterday the Germans haven't 94 00:04:38,973 --> 00:04:42,293 Speaker 4: made the quarter final stages of their last four major tournaments, 95 00:04:42,293 --> 00:04:45,293 Speaker 4: which is very surprising. Yeah, the Germany, but at home, 96 00:04:45,733 --> 00:04:48,453 Speaker 4: you know, obviously huge support of the Canes today and 97 00:04:48,493 --> 00:04:50,813 Speaker 4: Wellington and no, I'm looking forward to the rest of 98 00:04:50,853 --> 00:04:53,493 Speaker 4: the Gilman I think as England Serbia Monday morning. 99 00:04:54,013 --> 00:04:58,013 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, seven am Monday Morning TV.
