Weekend Sport 73 00:04:16,987 --> 00:04:19,227 Speaker 1: with Jason Vine News TALKSB. 74 00:04:20,787 --> 00:04:22,787 Speaker 3: For decades in this country, if you were a young 75 00:04:22,867 --> 00:04:25,787 Speaker 3: girl and you wanted to play sport, you played netball. 76 00:04:25,867 --> 00:04:27,947 Speaker 3: That was the pathway, that was the culture, that was 77 00:04:28,027 --> 00:04:33,107 Speaker 3: the Saturday ritual. But that monopoly is gone. Rugby is 78 00:04:33,147 --> 00:04:36,867 Speaker 3: booming off the back of World Cup success. Football is 79 00:04:36,947 --> 00:04:42,267 Speaker 3: selling a global dream, cricket, basketball, snowsports, even combat sports 80 00:04:42,787 --> 00:04:47,027 Speaker 3: offering professional pathways and real money. So here is the 81 00:04:47,707 --> 00:04:53,307 Speaker 3: uncomfortable question. Is netball losing its grip on young Kiwi girls? 82 00:04:53,387 --> 00:04:57,627 Speaker 3: And if talent is spreading across more sports than ever before, 83 00:04:58,347 --> 00:05:02,027 Speaker 3: is that progress or is it quietly weakening one of 84 00:05:02,067 --> 00:05:07,467 Speaker 3: our traditional sporting powerhouses. And the events of the last 85 00:05:07,467 --> 00:05:12,307 Speaker 3: twelve months played any part in an upswing or a 86 00:05:12,427 --> 00:05:15,747 Speaker 3: down swing in netball? I want to kick this around 87 00:05:15,747 --> 00:05:19,787 Speaker 3: with you, but joining us now Chair of Women in Sport, Aldteroa, 88 00:05:19,987 --> 00:05:23,907 Speaker 3: Susan Sawbridge, Susan, let's start with the wide range of 89 00:05:23,947 --> 00:05:27,267 Speaker 3: options available for young females if they want to play 90 00:05:27,267 --> 00:05:32,147 Speaker 3: some sport. Are we witnessing the most diverse era ever 91 00:05:32,827 --> 00:05:34,227 Speaker 3: for girls sport in New Zealand? 92 00:05:35,147 --> 00:05:37,827 Speaker 4: I would say we probably are, Actually, Jason, It's true 93 00:05:37,827 --> 00:05:40,587 Speaker 4: that we've got more sporting choices for women and girls 94 00:05:40,627 --> 00:05:43,787 Speaker 4: now than we probably ever have had before, and I 95 00:05:43,827 --> 00:05:47,547 Speaker 4: think that that is something to celebrate. We, as you 96 00:05:47,627 --> 00:05:52,187 Speaker 4: just said, we've got opportunities across sports that perhaps. 97 00:05:51,827 --> 00:05:52,187 Speaker 5: I don't know. 98 00:05:52,507 --> 00:05:54,787 Speaker 4: You wouldn't have to go too far back in history 99 00:05:55,187 --> 00:05:57,507 Speaker 4: and people would think, well, I'm not going to be 100 00:05:57,547 --> 00:06:00,467 Speaker 4: watching women playing that sport, or I wouldn't be expecting 101 00:06:00,467 --> 00:06:03,667 Speaker 4: my daughter to be getting involved in that sport. But 102 00:06:04,147 --> 00:06:06,427 Speaker 4: now the opportunity is there, and I think that is 103 00:06:06,467 --> 00:06:09,267 Speaker 4: a really positive thing. What do you think for women 104 00:06:09,307 --> 00:06:11,227 Speaker 4: and girls and for sport more broadly. 105 00:06:10,987 --> 00:06:14,027 Speaker 3: Indeed, what do you think has driven that change? 106 00:06:15,707 --> 00:06:17,587 Speaker 4: I think there's a whole bunch of things, really. I mean, 107 00:06:18,987 --> 00:06:21,227 Speaker 4: I think for a long time there's probably been a 108 00:06:21,347 --> 00:06:27,787 Speaker 4: willingness for young people, no matter what their gender, actually 109 00:06:27,867 --> 00:06:31,027 Speaker 4: to try new things in different sports. I mean, we've 110 00:06:31,107 --> 00:06:34,787 Speaker 4: had more diversity and sport options for boys as well 111 00:06:34,907 --> 00:06:37,547 Speaker 4: in New Zealand. It's not just something that's unique to women, 112 00:06:37,947 --> 00:06:41,267 Speaker 4: but certainly for young girls. It used to be back 113 00:06:41,267 --> 00:06:44,747 Speaker 4: in the day that netball and perhaps hockey were your 114 00:06:44,787 --> 00:06:47,547 Speaker 4: only two options, and now it's much much broader. So 115 00:06:47,587 --> 00:06:50,027 Speaker 4: I think one of the things that probably changes that 116 00:06:50,107 --> 00:06:52,067 Speaker 4: for all of us, and it's a challenge for sport 117 00:06:52,147 --> 00:06:54,787 Speaker 4: as much as an opportunity, is that at your fingertips 118 00:06:54,827 --> 00:06:59,907 Speaker 4: now you can consume every kind of sport in every 119 00:06:59,947 --> 00:07:01,867 Speaker 4: market in the world, not just in New Zealand. You 120 00:07:01,907 --> 00:07:06,147 Speaker 4: get to see an experience sport of all different types 121 00:07:06,547 --> 00:07:09,027 Speaker 4: and you can see people of all different types participating 122 00:07:09,027 --> 00:07:10,907 Speaker 4: in those sports, and so you start to expect that 123 00:07:10,907 --> 00:07:12,867 Speaker 4: you're going to have the opportunity to do that as well. 124 00:07:13,507 --> 00:07:18,587 Speaker 3: Does greater choice strength in the overall women's sport sporting 125 00:07:18,667 --> 00:07:22,107 Speaker 3: rather ecosystem or does it dilute the talent Paul that's 126 00:07:22,107 --> 00:07:24,507 Speaker 3: already there? In other words, are we growing the number 127 00:07:24,867 --> 00:07:31,267 Speaker 3: of participants to fit the wider variety now available to them? 128 00:07:31,787 --> 00:07:35,067 Speaker 4: We have got We know that participation has continued to 129 00:07:35,147 --> 00:07:39,227 Speaker 4: increase in New Zealand. We're trying to get more women 130 00:07:39,267 --> 00:07:42,027 Speaker 4: and girls active in sport. But if you think about 131 00:07:42,147 --> 00:07:45,947 Speaker 4: the variety that you have, I mean there's an advantage 132 00:07:46,267 --> 00:07:49,587 Speaker 4: in multi sport participation, right, it's good for you. It's 133 00:07:49,627 --> 00:07:51,947 Speaker 4: good particularly when you're younger. It's really great not to 134 00:07:51,947 --> 00:07:54,707 Speaker 4: specialize too young and to be able to stretch your 135 00:07:54,707 --> 00:07:58,187 Speaker 4: wings into lots of different sport. Physical literacy in lots 136 00:07:58,227 --> 00:08:01,307 Speaker 4: of different sports, so it's healthy. It stops getting burned 137 00:08:01,307 --> 00:08:03,907 Speaker 4: out too young. So if you're on your path to greatness, 138 00:08:03,947 --> 00:08:05,627 Speaker 4: then I think it's really positive that you get to 139 00:08:05,627 --> 00:08:08,947 Speaker 4: try lots of different sports. It also means you've got 140 00:08:09,827 --> 00:08:13,427 Speaker 4: more girls staying active in a sport that suits them 141 00:08:13,587 --> 00:08:17,067 Speaker 4: and their personality and their interests. You've got more role 142 00:08:17,107 --> 00:08:19,347 Speaker 4: models now, so more people that you can look up to. 143 00:08:19,467 --> 00:08:21,307 Speaker 4: You're more likely to be able to see someone like 144 00:08:21,307 --> 00:08:23,827 Speaker 4: yourself participating in a sport and think I can do 145 00:08:23,907 --> 00:08:26,827 Speaker 4: that too. So you think you got Zoe and Grace 146 00:08:26,907 --> 00:08:29,267 Speaker 4: and Georgia and all these women that you can now 147 00:08:29,387 --> 00:08:33,827 Speaker 4: look up to, and you hope that that feeds the 148 00:08:33,907 --> 00:08:37,267 Speaker 4: investment and the interest in women's sports overall as well. 149 00:08:37,907 --> 00:08:40,147 Speaker 3: What do you think this means for the traditional sports? 150 00:08:40,187 --> 00:08:42,707 Speaker 3: Netball is the obvious one for young girls. As I 151 00:08:42,707 --> 00:08:45,667 Speaker 3: said at the start, if you were a young female 152 00:08:45,707 --> 00:08:47,507 Speaker 3: who wanted to play sport, you know, not that long 153 00:08:47,547 --> 00:08:51,147 Speaker 3: ago netball was the default option. It's now not. So 154 00:08:52,067 --> 00:08:57,387 Speaker 3: how flexible, how nimble, how ready to change does netball 155 00:08:57,427 --> 00:08:59,227 Speaker 3: have to be in the scenario. 156 00:09:00,507 --> 00:09:03,347 Speaker 4: It's probably true that netball isn't the only sport that 157 00:09:03,427 --> 00:09:05,587 Speaker 4: girls have been able to play for a long time. 158 00:09:05,627 --> 00:09:10,387 Speaker 4: Now a new thing, that there's more options around there 159 00:09:10,507 --> 00:09:14,867 Speaker 4: for young girls to participate in. But what is surely 160 00:09:14,987 --> 00:09:18,387 Speaker 4: still true is that netball is a foundation sport in 161 00:09:18,427 --> 00:09:21,947 Speaker 4: New Zealand right It's important to generations of women and 162 00:09:21,947 --> 00:09:24,747 Speaker 4: girls in New Zealand and it remains really strong. So 163 00:09:24,867 --> 00:09:27,747 Speaker 4: for all of this competition that's coming up, it's still 164 00:09:27,747 --> 00:09:30,307 Speaker 4: the number one sport that's played in secondary schools in 165 00:09:30,347 --> 00:09:32,827 Speaker 4: New Zealand. We've got something like I think's around one 166 00:09:32,907 --> 00:09:37,667 Speaker 4: hundred and forty five thousand participants. Participations still going up, 167 00:09:37,667 --> 00:09:41,307 Speaker 4: so if you think about every weekend, there's still thousands 168 00:09:41,347 --> 00:09:43,907 Speaker 4: of girls lacing up their shoes and racing out onto 169 00:09:43,907 --> 00:09:47,427 Speaker 4: the netball courts and that's important for netball and long term, 170 00:09:47,467 --> 00:09:50,667 Speaker 4: if you think about the pathways community sport today is 171 00:09:50,707 --> 00:09:54,387 Speaker 4: where your high performance athletes come from tomorrow, right, so 172 00:09:54,467 --> 00:09:57,987 Speaker 4: that the strength of the community game is still absolutely 173 00:09:58,027 --> 00:10:02,467 Speaker 4: there and that carries through to high performance tomorrow. Another 174 00:10:02,507 --> 00:10:04,827 Speaker 4: thing I think that's really important to remember about netball 175 00:10:05,467 --> 00:10:10,387 Speaker 4: is that for many women and girls, netball is where 176 00:10:10,427 --> 00:10:12,947 Speaker 4: they started their sporting journeys and they still are now. 177 00:10:13,427 --> 00:10:16,467 Speaker 4: It's been for many of them the first leadership experience 178 00:10:16,507 --> 00:10:17,507 Speaker 4: that lots of women. 179 00:10:17,347 --> 00:10:17,907 Speaker 6: Have in sport. 180 00:10:17,987 --> 00:10:20,107 Speaker 4: They might go on to other sports, but they very 181 00:10:20,107 --> 00:10:23,867 Speaker 4: well might have started their leadership experience in netball and 182 00:10:24,507 --> 00:10:27,227 Speaker 4: that sort of legacy matters, and it's been important for 183 00:10:27,267 --> 00:10:29,587 Speaker 4: a really long time it's where lots of our girls 184 00:10:29,587 --> 00:10:32,107 Speaker 4: first fall in love with sport, and whether they choose 185 00:10:32,147 --> 00:10:35,907 Speaker 4: to stay there or not, if it gets them involved 186 00:10:35,907 --> 00:10:40,827 Speaker 4: in sport, then that's a strength for netball and grassroots 187 00:10:40,867 --> 00:10:45,387 Speaker 4: Netball continues to be one of the most successful accessible 188 00:10:45,387 --> 00:10:47,987 Speaker 4: sports that we've got for girls and for young women 189 00:10:48,067 --> 00:10:50,547 Speaker 4: across New Zealand. So all of that, there's a lot 190 00:10:50,547 --> 00:10:53,667 Speaker 4: of positives that are still sitting there behind this game. 191 00:10:53,707 --> 00:10:58,587 Speaker 4: It's I don't think that it's importance as diminishing to 192 00:10:59,227 --> 00:11:02,587 Speaker 4: a point where Netball New Zealand or anyone that's engaged 193 00:11:02,627 --> 00:11:04,067 Speaker 4: in the sport needs to be in a panic because 194 00:11:04,067 --> 00:11:06,907 Speaker 4: it's so strong across you know, small town's, big cities, 195 00:11:07,227 --> 00:11:09,827 Speaker 4: wherever it might be, is a huge strength in the sport. 196 00:11:10,267 --> 00:11:12,467 Speaker 3: I think Nepple New Zealand themselves would accept it's been 197 00:11:12,467 --> 00:11:14,947 Speaker 3: a difficult twelve months or so for them, but mainly 198 00:11:15,067 --> 00:11:17,827 Speaker 3: in areas at the top level around the Silver Film's 199 00:11:17,867 --> 00:11:22,067 Speaker 3: coaching situation, recent resignations on the board, the broadcast deal. 200 00:11:22,507 --> 00:11:25,867 Speaker 3: Do you think your average everyday family, when they're looking 201 00:11:25,867 --> 00:11:29,427 Speaker 3: at a sport for their kids to play, takes notice 202 00:11:29,427 --> 00:11:32,627 Speaker 3: of what's happening in the corridors of power or not. 203 00:11:33,907 --> 00:11:36,747 Speaker 4: Well, I doubt that there's been some chat on the sidelines 204 00:11:36,827 --> 00:11:40,107 Speaker 4: right because it's been so well covered. But I guess 205 00:11:40,147 --> 00:11:42,987 Speaker 4: even that the fact that people are so drawn into 206 00:11:42,987 --> 00:11:45,307 Speaker 4: the discussion is evidence of passion for. 207 00:11:45,267 --> 00:11:46,387 Speaker 7: The sport in the first place. 208 00:11:47,027 --> 00:11:50,827 Speaker 4: And you don't ever want to downplay the importance of 209 00:11:50,867 --> 00:11:55,907 Speaker 4: a national sporting organization or ever say that what any 210 00:11:56,027 --> 00:11:59,547 Speaker 4: SO does is without impact. But I do think you're right. 211 00:11:59,827 --> 00:12:02,107 Speaker 4: Your day to day participants they can feel a long 212 00:12:02,147 --> 00:12:05,947 Speaker 4: way away from what's happening at the top tables of sport, 213 00:12:06,107 --> 00:12:08,747 Speaker 4: and so yeah, I'm sure that people have noticed it, 214 00:12:08,827 --> 00:12:11,747 Speaker 4: but they're probably also chatting on the sidelines about I 215 00:12:11,787 --> 00:12:15,067 Speaker 4: don't know, that cracking intercept that the wing defense did 216 00:12:15,107 --> 00:12:16,747 Speaker 4: in the first five minutes of the game that they're 217 00:12:16,787 --> 00:12:18,907 Speaker 4: just watching in front of them and their community. You know, 218 00:12:18,947 --> 00:12:22,987 Speaker 4: that's probably more important than vast majority of us are 219 00:12:23,147 --> 00:12:27,267 Speaker 4: playing sport at a community level, and that is the 220 00:12:27,587 --> 00:12:30,147 Speaker 4: part of sport that's going to touch us the most. 221 00:12:30,307 --> 00:12:33,027 Speaker 3: Indeed, very well said. So, once we get to the 222 00:12:33,027 --> 00:12:37,627 Speaker 3: point where where the talented young sports people, both genders 223 00:12:38,467 --> 00:12:42,187 Speaker 3: all genders, are making decisions about what sport they might pursue, 224 00:12:42,427 --> 00:12:44,587 Speaker 3: it often happens, and I'm sure you've seen it, Susan. 225 00:12:44,627 --> 00:12:46,947 Speaker 3: You know, you know, an athlete can be good at 226 00:12:46,947 --> 00:12:48,827 Speaker 3: about five or six different things and they've got to 227 00:12:48,827 --> 00:12:52,147 Speaker 3: decide what it is. You know. The fact that there 228 00:12:52,187 --> 00:12:55,547 Speaker 3: are you know, so many more options now professional leagues, 229 00:12:56,507 --> 00:13:00,547 Speaker 3: you know, the pathways are multiple. Now, is that a 230 00:13:00,587 --> 00:13:02,427 Speaker 3: battle that all sports have to be aware of in 231 00:13:02,507 --> 00:13:05,347 Speaker 3: terms of making sure that when that very talented athlete 232 00:13:05,427 --> 00:13:08,267 Speaker 3: chooses of the five, that it's them that they're choosing. 233 00:13:09,867 --> 00:13:10,947 Speaker 4: Yeah, what a problem to have. 234 00:13:12,387 --> 00:13:16,307 Speaker 3: My neither mine either, don't you worry? Never my experience. 235 00:13:16,587 --> 00:13:18,707 Speaker 4: Yes, imagine to really so good at sport that you 236 00:13:18,707 --> 00:13:22,147 Speaker 4: can pick whatever you wanted then be amazing at it. Yeah, 237 00:13:22,227 --> 00:13:24,067 Speaker 4: you said, is that a problem for all sports? I 238 00:13:24,107 --> 00:13:25,907 Speaker 4: think it probably is true. 239 00:13:25,627 --> 00:13:27,427 Speaker 8: For all sports in New Zealand. 240 00:13:27,467 --> 00:13:29,707 Speaker 4: We're a small market, so that's always going to be true. 241 00:13:29,707 --> 00:13:32,107 Speaker 4: There's probably a cap to what it is that we're 242 00:13:32,147 --> 00:13:34,907 Speaker 4: able to offer, but we see plenty of our athletes 243 00:13:34,987 --> 00:13:38,947 Speaker 4: might move from from you know, one code to another, 244 00:13:39,267 --> 00:13:43,987 Speaker 4: or they get to As I said, multi sport participation 245 00:13:44,027 --> 00:13:46,147 Speaker 4: when you're young is good for you, right, so you 246 00:13:46,267 --> 00:13:49,067 Speaker 4: have the chance to experience lots of them, choose the 247 00:13:49,107 --> 00:13:52,467 Speaker 4: one that your heart loves the most and that suits 248 00:13:52,547 --> 00:13:54,827 Speaker 4: the life that you want for yourself, and you get 249 00:13:54,867 --> 00:13:56,467 Speaker 4: to grab it. If you're lucky enough to be in 250 00:13:56,507 --> 00:13:57,027 Speaker 4: that position. 251 00:13:57,667 --> 00:13:58,427 Speaker 6: More power to you. 252 00:13:59,107 --> 00:14:01,547 Speaker 3: Just to finish in ten years time, if we were 253 00:14:01,547 --> 00:14:03,627 Speaker 3: to crystal ball gays and that's all it is. It's 254 00:14:03,667 --> 00:14:06,827 Speaker 3: just a guess, really, but an educated one. What do 255 00:14:06,867 --> 00:14:11,107 Speaker 3: you think the participation landscape will look like for female 256 00:14:11,187 --> 00:14:13,467 Speaker 3: sports people in ten years from now? 257 00:14:14,867 --> 00:14:17,107 Speaker 4: Well, I'd see what I can look back ten years 258 00:14:17,107 --> 00:14:18,947 Speaker 4: and if you think about how much further we might 259 00:14:18,987 --> 00:14:22,427 Speaker 4: have to go from there. So when WESPER was founded, 260 00:14:22,747 --> 00:14:25,827 Speaker 4: if you googled women in sport in New Zealand something 261 00:14:25,867 --> 00:14:28,867 Speaker 4: specific to New Zealand, not a lot trame up. Right, 262 00:14:28,867 --> 00:14:31,947 Speaker 4: there wasn't much there. Now there's absolutely loads. We've had 263 00:14:32,307 --> 00:14:35,387 Speaker 4: three World Cups, we had the International Working Group for 264 00:14:35,427 --> 00:14:38,707 Speaker 4: Women in Sport, and I think if you went to say, 265 00:14:38,707 --> 00:14:41,027 Speaker 4: if you went to the Rugby World Cup final which 266 00:14:41,027 --> 00:14:43,227 Speaker 4: the Black Ferns took home, if you went to the 267 00:14:43,267 --> 00:14:45,427 Speaker 4: opening game of fee for Women's World Cups, you know 268 00:14:45,627 --> 00:14:48,027 Speaker 4: you can't say now that no one wants to watch 269 00:14:48,067 --> 00:14:50,907 Speaker 4: women's sport, that you know one can argue that point anymore. 270 00:14:50,907 --> 00:14:53,267 Speaker 4: You can't say it's dull because those games are amazing. 271 00:14:53,867 --> 00:14:56,227 Speaker 4: But still and these are the things that you hope 272 00:14:56,267 --> 00:14:58,267 Speaker 4: a good shift in the next ten years. But they'll 273 00:14:58,307 --> 00:15:00,147 Speaker 4: only shift if we keep the foot to the floor 274 00:15:00,787 --> 00:15:05,587 Speaker 4: is if you go to women's sports, you still probably 275 00:15:05,627 --> 00:15:08,027 Speaker 4: expecting going to pay far less to attend than you 276 00:15:08,067 --> 00:15:11,547 Speaker 4: would go to a men's game. We still haven't got 277 00:15:11,547 --> 00:15:15,467 Speaker 4: the same level of commercial support slash sponsorship, tricky for everyone, 278 00:15:15,547 --> 00:15:19,027 Speaker 4: but probably more challenging for women's sports. Still, we're still 279 00:15:19,067 --> 00:15:21,067 Speaker 4: are on a path from the media perspective, I think 280 00:15:21,107 --> 00:15:24,387 Speaker 4: the latest, the most recent stats have sitting at something 281 00:15:24,427 --> 00:15:26,827 Speaker 4: like twenty five percent of media coverage of sport is 282 00:15:26,867 --> 00:15:29,787 Speaker 4: around women's sports. So we're you know, we're not at 283 00:15:29,787 --> 00:15:32,867 Speaker 4: an equity level there. We've still got fewer women in coaching. 284 00:15:33,987 --> 00:15:37,507 Speaker 4: We know, we've got some communities that are not participating 285 00:15:37,547 --> 00:15:38,267 Speaker 4: to the same level. 286 00:15:38,307 --> 00:15:40,267 Speaker 7: So we've started and we've. 287 00:15:40,147 --> 00:15:43,507 Speaker 4: Got cracking momentum. We're part way along the path. All 288 00:15:43,547 --> 00:15:46,267 Speaker 4: of those things we need to keep you know, keep 289 00:15:46,307 --> 00:15:49,987 Speaker 4: the effort behind to keep moving those things board. And 290 00:15:50,067 --> 00:15:52,667 Speaker 4: that's that's really what Whisper is there to do to 291 00:15:53,547 --> 00:15:56,747 Speaker 4: help us move towards the being the world's most equitable 292 00:15:56,787 --> 00:15:57,547 Speaker 4: sports system. 293 00:15:57,627 --> 00:16:00,027 Speaker 3: Susan, I appreciate your time this afternoon. You've got some 294 00:16:00,067 --> 00:16:03,427 Speaker 3: great insight and some real food for thought. Thanks. Indeed, 295 00:16:03,467 --> 00:16:07,747 Speaker 3: that is Susan Sawbridge, Chair of Women in sport Al Theodora. 296 00:16:07,867 --> 00:16:10,787 Speaker 3: This is Weekend Sport. Ken for your reaction to anything 297 00:16:10,827 --> 00:16:14,507 Speaker 3: you heard there, but also for your lived experience on 298 00:16:14,587 --> 00:16:17,107 Speaker 3: a couple of things we chatted about there. One is 299 00:16:17,187 --> 00:16:21,307 Speaker 3: the much wider range of sports which are available now, 300 00:16:21,347 --> 00:16:24,907 Speaker 3: not just for young girls, but certainly way more than 301 00:16:24,907 --> 00:16:27,187 Speaker 3: it used to be. As I say, it used to 302 00:16:27,267 --> 00:16:30,507 Speaker 3: be you played netball and that was it. Now there 303 00:16:30,547 --> 00:16:34,587 Speaker 3: are so many more options for our young females to 304 00:16:34,947 --> 00:16:38,507 Speaker 3: choose if they want to play sport. The second is 305 00:16:38,547 --> 00:16:43,027 Speaker 3: the impact if there is one of the very challenging 306 00:16:43,067 --> 00:16:47,787 Speaker 3: twelve months that netball has endured now we Delan, I 307 00:16:47,787 --> 00:16:50,747 Speaker 3: guess you'd call them high level issues on the show 308 00:16:51,107 --> 00:16:54,067 Speaker 3: and during twenty twenty five we talked about netball a 309 00:16:54,107 --> 00:16:57,867 Speaker 3: lot and most of it was off the court stuff, 310 00:16:59,067 --> 00:17:03,667 Speaker 3: the Dame Noline Todua coaching saga and how drawn out 311 00:17:03,707 --> 00:17:09,187 Speaker 3: that was, the silver ferns eligible issue and allowing certain 312 00:17:09,267 --> 00:17:13,547 Speaker 3: players to play their netball offshore but still remain silver 313 00:17:13,587 --> 00:17:16,987 Speaker 3: ferns eligible a reject broadcast or for the A and 314 00:17:17,067 --> 00:17:20,907 Speaker 3: Z Premiership and depending on who you believe, netball now 315 00:17:20,947 --> 00:17:25,907 Speaker 3: have to pay to have netball on television rather than 316 00:17:25,907 --> 00:17:30,627 Speaker 3: the other way around, where a broadcaster wants to pay 317 00:17:30,987 --> 00:17:34,227 Speaker 3: to have that content. The departure of CEO Jenny Wiley 318 00:17:34,747 --> 00:17:38,507 Speaker 3: and this week the resignation of chair Matt Winney and 319 00:17:38,627 --> 00:17:41,947 Speaker 3: three other board members, so there's been a lot happening 320 00:17:42,267 --> 00:17:45,547 Speaker 3: at the top level off the court. But does that 321 00:17:45,667 --> 00:17:50,907 Speaker 3: trickle down. Do young people or their families look at 322 00:17:50,947 --> 00:17:54,547 Speaker 3: netball and say, what are shambles? That is not the 323 00:17:54,547 --> 00:17:57,587 Speaker 3: sport for me? Or is that simply not a thing 324 00:17:57,627 --> 00:18:00,787 Speaker 3: at all? I know when we were talking about the 325 00:18:00,907 --> 00:18:03,427 Speaker 3: issues at the top level of netball in New Zealand 326 00:18:03,467 --> 00:18:05,747 Speaker 3: last year, the ones have just outlined. We had a 327 00:18:05,747 --> 00:18:08,547 Speaker 3: lot of feedback which talked about how what was happening 328 00:18:08,587 --> 00:18:11,467 Speaker 3: at the top of the game was reflecting really badly 329 00:18:11,507 --> 00:18:14,907 Speaker 3: on the thousands, the tens of thousands who were involved 330 00:18:14,947 --> 00:18:17,467 Speaker 3: in the game at community level, who were turning up 331 00:18:17,507 --> 00:18:20,667 Speaker 3: to volunteer, turning up to play, turning up to umpire, 332 00:18:21,027 --> 00:18:24,027 Speaker 3: turning up to be involved in the sport, and they 333 00:18:24,027 --> 00:18:26,187 Speaker 3: were looking at what was happening right at the top 334 00:18:26,227 --> 00:18:31,227 Speaker 3: of their sport and the corridors of power and thinking, 335 00:18:31,467 --> 00:18:34,747 Speaker 3: what are you doing?

They have so many other options now, nitbel 346 00:19:09,507 --> 00:19:13,467 Speaker 3: I guess is jump is jumping to the front of 347 00:19:13,507 --> 00:19:15,827 Speaker 3: mine because I guess of everything that's happened in the 348 00:19:16,347 --> 00:19:18,467 Speaker 3: in the past little while, and I just I guess. 349 00:19:18,507 --> 00:19:20,187 Speaker 3: I was kicking it around with Andy during the week 350 00:19:20,227 --> 00:19:22,547 Speaker 3: and thinking, I wonder if there has been that flow 351 00:19:22,547 --> 00:19:25,027 Speaker 3: down effect. Oh eight one hundred and eighty ten eighty 352 00:19:25,067 --> 00:19:27,547 Speaker 3: is our number nine two nine two Calvin kick us off. 353 00:19:28,027 --> 00:19:30,387 Speaker 9: There good affinn to you, Jason. Yes, of course, originally 354 00:19:30,427 --> 00:19:38,147 Speaker 9: the females played outdoor basketball nine a side until the 355 00:19:38,187 --> 00:19:40,987 Speaker 9: early to mid nineteen sixties when they change the name 356 00:19:41,067 --> 00:19:44,227 Speaker 9: to netball and cut it down from nine to to seven. 357 00:19:44,787 --> 00:19:47,227 Speaker 9: But when you look at all the different sports, of 358 00:19:47,227 --> 00:19:50,707 Speaker 9: course sports with women there, they've always had, you know, 359 00:19:50,787 --> 00:19:55,947 Speaker 9: swimming and tennis, so there's been other sports for them. 360 00:19:55,947 --> 00:20:00,867 Speaker 9: And the present day on TV the Winter Olympics, that's 361 00:20:00,947 --> 00:20:04,747 Speaker 9: basically athletics on ice or snow. The only different scores 362 00:20:04,747 --> 00:20:08,147 Speaker 9: they got curling on ice and in ice hockey on ice, 363 00:20:08,547 --> 00:20:11,747 Speaker 9: but it's basically just athletics. So the athletics has always 364 00:20:11,827 --> 00:20:15,387 Speaker 9: been there for women, but we tended to a lot 365 00:20:15,427 --> 00:20:18,067 Speaker 9: of people of tendant to look just at netball, but 366 00:20:18,307 --> 00:20:21,867 Speaker 9: it has expanded, and of course you know in recent 367 00:20:21,947 --> 00:20:26,747 Speaker 9: decades cracket for women and rugby union rugby league. 368 00:20:27,227 --> 00:20:30,587 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think, yeah, they've always been there, Calvin, I 369 00:20:30,587 --> 00:20:32,147 Speaker 3: think you're right. I mean, and you're the ones you've 370 00:20:32,507 --> 00:20:36,667 Speaker 3: you've you've highlighted their rugby cricket perhaps and and football 371 00:20:36,747 --> 00:20:38,947 Speaker 3: is the other one that I guess in the past 372 00:20:38,987 --> 00:20:41,387 Speaker 3: we'll almost you know, you talk to the you talk 373 00:20:41,427 --> 00:20:43,827 Speaker 3: to some of the some of the players who represented 374 00:20:43,867 --> 00:20:46,707 Speaker 3: New Zealand in those sports, you know, in the in 375 00:20:46,787 --> 00:20:48,467 Speaker 3: the eighties, let's say, if we want to pick an 376 00:20:48,507 --> 00:20:54,627 Speaker 3: arbitrary decade, and they were nowhere close to as well 377 00:20:54,667 --> 00:20:58,267 Speaker 3: resourced as their male counterparts. And you look at the 378 00:20:58,387 --> 00:21:00,267 Speaker 3: look at it these days. Sorry, but I'm gonna let 379 00:21:00,267 --> 00:21:03,027 Speaker 3: you continue. Look at these days and the resource and 380 00:21:03,067 --> 00:21:06,947 Speaker 3: the I guess, the the exposure of those sports. Now, 381 00:21:07,067 --> 00:21:09,587 Speaker 3: like I say, I've had a couple of texting. Hey, 382 00:21:09,627 --> 00:21:13,227 Speaker 3: it hasn't just been netble, but it was the It 383 00:21:13,427 --> 00:21:15,707 Speaker 3: was the default option for a lot of females. It's 384 00:21:15,747 --> 00:21:17,627 Speaker 3: like okay, you're a young girl, Okay, you go and 385 00:21:17,627 --> 00:21:20,067 Speaker 3: play netball. It wasn't like a you go and play sevens, 386 00:21:20,307 --> 00:21:22,187 Speaker 3: or you go and have a go at combat sport, 387 00:21:22,427 --> 00:21:23,827 Speaker 3: or you go and play basketball. 388 00:21:23,867 --> 00:21:29,467 Speaker 9: Even yes, well, Jason, the netball, as you said, you know, 389 00:21:29,547 --> 00:21:32,387 Speaker 9: it has always been the netball. In recent years it 390 00:21:32,587 --> 00:21:37,187 Speaker 9: expanded to having men male teams, but it hasn't really 391 00:21:37,227 --> 00:21:40,987 Speaker 9: grown very much. And of course with tennis, from what 392 00:21:41,027 --> 00:21:45,467 Speaker 9: I recall, tennis was originally invented by French. If I've 393 00:21:45,827 --> 00:21:48,867 Speaker 9: come from France in the early days, it was it 394 00:21:48,867 --> 00:21:50,667 Speaker 9: a little bit of going on in Britain. But I 395 00:21:50,667 --> 00:21:52,347 Speaker 9: think the game as we know it now come from 396 00:21:52,387 --> 00:21:56,187 Speaker 9: Frances That's why he's got those strange words with a scoring. 397 00:21:57,867 --> 00:22:01,907 Speaker 9: But even cycling was just on the road or on 398 00:22:01,947 --> 00:22:06,067 Speaker 9: a track, but nowadays it's up up mountains for heaven's sake. 399 00:22:06,667 --> 00:22:10,187 Speaker 3: Yeah, lots of different options. And your SEMMI Maxwell great example, 400 00:22:10,187 --> 00:22:15,787 Speaker 3: World champion and mountain biking, you know last year.

Good afternoon, get a piney. 421 00:23:21,747 --> 00:23:24,387 Speaker 10: When you have an administrator come on and in a soft, 422 00:23:24,707 --> 00:23:29,547 Speaker 10: kind sort of voice talk about equity and representation and 423 00:23:29,627 --> 00:23:31,987 Speaker 10: coverage and we'd like fifty percent of it for our 424 00:23:32,147 --> 00:23:38,707 Speaker 10: female athletes. They're talking absolute garbage, and they're creating a 425 00:23:38,707 --> 00:23:42,147 Speaker 10: false expectation that women would get fifty percent of the 426 00:23:42,227 --> 00:23:45,507 Speaker 10: coverage and fifty percent of the finances because they just 427 00:23:45,547 --> 00:23:49,067 Speaker 10: don't generate that, nor is the interest there for women 428 00:23:49,107 --> 00:23:54,427 Speaker 10: to get that sort of forced subsidized coverage. Calling for 429 00:23:54,467 --> 00:23:58,587 Speaker 10: subsidies is just something that these administrators. 430 00:23:57,827 --> 00:23:59,187 Speaker 3: Come on and do all the time. 431 00:23:59,787 --> 00:24:01,547 Speaker 11: They do it all the time. We're here to advance 432 00:24:01,587 --> 00:24:03,267 Speaker 11: women's sports. We want equity. 433 00:24:03,707 --> 00:24:07,667 Speaker 10: Equity is actually according to doctor Doctor Jordan Peterson an 434 00:24:07,707 --> 00:24:11,067 Speaker 10: evil concept and whenever you hear somebody call for it, 435 00:24:11,107 --> 00:24:14,867 Speaker 10: you should immediately discount what they have to say. I'm 436 00:24:14,907 --> 00:24:17,507 Speaker 10: all for equality being able to get access to it, 437 00:24:17,547 --> 00:24:21,147 Speaker 10: but equity of anything is just forced and false, and 438 00:24:21,227 --> 00:24:24,507 Speaker 10: it's almost silly For a. 439 00:24:24,467 --> 00:24:26,947 Speaker 3: Subsidi, I don't. I don't recall her asking for a subsidi. 440 00:24:27,107 --> 00:24:30,627 Speaker 10: She's asking for equity. She's asking for equity, which is 441 00:24:30,947 --> 00:24:32,987 Speaker 10: we need to be subsidized to have the same as 442 00:24:33,027 --> 00:24:34,707 Speaker 10: everybody else, the same as the guys. 443 00:24:35,187 --> 00:24:39,187 Speaker 11: What it is, it's almost an envy thing. They've tried 444 00:24:39,227 --> 00:24:42,187 Speaker 11: coverage for women's sports. As you said, netball can't even 445 00:24:42,187 --> 00:24:46,187 Speaker 11: pay its way commercially. They have to pay to get on. 446 00:24:46,947 --> 00:24:49,387 Speaker 11: It's just a false argument that's being advanced. And look, 447 00:24:49,547 --> 00:24:53,587 Speaker 11: I don't I admire them for batting their corner, but 448 00:24:53,707 --> 00:24:55,667 Speaker 11: it's a false, false argument. 449 00:24:56,307 --> 00:24:58,227 Speaker 6: They should just stick. 450 00:24:58,027 --> 00:25:00,667 Speaker 11: To their kitting, be grateful for the subsidies they get 451 00:25:00,667 --> 00:25:02,947 Speaker 11: out of Sports New Zealand, and don't. 452 00:25:02,667 --> 00:25:05,507 Speaker 10: Ask the guys to dilute their side of the pie. 453 00:25:05,627 --> 00:25:08,747 Speaker 10: For you, That's where I come from. 454 00:25:08,667 --> 00:25:11,107 Speaker 3: Okay, Mark, Yeah, look I have a different view, and 455 00:25:11,387 --> 00:25:13,187 Speaker 3: I think that's what it's all about you know, we're 456 00:25:13,187 --> 00:25:15,867 Speaker 3: allowed to disagree on this stuff. A lot of sports 457 00:25:15,867 --> 00:25:18,907 Speaker 3: have to pay to get coverage. Netball are not alone 458 00:25:18,907 --> 00:25:22,667 Speaker 3: in that. There are only very few who now are 459 00:25:22,747 --> 00:25:26,787 Speaker 3: paid by the broadcaster to have their sport on TV. 460 00:25:27,267 --> 00:25:29,587 Speaker 3: And it's not just it's not just female stuff. I 461 00:25:29,587 --> 00:25:33,707 Speaker 3: can guarantee you of that. The likes of softball, for example, 462 00:25:34,107 --> 00:25:37,747 Speaker 3: you know, big participation sport for men and women, has 463 00:25:37,787 --> 00:25:40,507 Speaker 3: to pay if it wants to have anything broadcast on television. 464 00:25:41,947 --> 00:25:45,067 Speaker 3: Other sports are in a very similar in a very 465 00:25:45,067 --> 00:25:50,787 Speaker 3: similar spot. Mark heard. I've heard the argument you've made, 466 00:25:50,907 --> 00:25:54,347 Speaker 3: you know, many times that it needs to pay its way. 467 00:25:55,147 --> 00:25:57,147 Speaker 3: You know, it doesn't get the bums on seats, it 468 00:25:57,147 --> 00:26:01,427 Speaker 3: doesn't get the eyeballs. I don't think Susan was in 469 00:26:01,587 --> 00:26:05,187 Speaker 3: any way asking for a subsidy, as you put it, 470 00:26:06,067 --> 00:26:10,187 Speaker 3: ask for you know, a leg up. I think those 471 00:26:10,267 --> 00:26:15,867 Speaker 3: days are gone. Those days are gone. And anyone who 472 00:26:15,907 --> 00:26:18,347 Speaker 3: was at the Rugby World Cup final in twenty twenty 473 00:26:18,347 --> 00:26:22,747 Speaker 3: two when the Black Ferns beat England, you know any 474 00:26:22,787 --> 00:26:25,067 Speaker 3: doubt was removed about whether people want to turn up 475 00:26:25,067 --> 00:26:28,827 Speaker 3: and watch it. The Women's World Cup here the FIFA 476 00:26:28,867 --> 00:26:34,667 Speaker 3: World Cup in twenty twenty three, huge crowds. Huge crowds 477 00:26:34,707 --> 00:26:37,947 Speaker 3: turned up to watch that. The Matilda's across the Tasman 478 00:26:38,427 --> 00:26:43,307 Speaker 3: the women's football team over there have sold out a 479 00:26:43,507 --> 00:26:47,907 Speaker 3: dozen games in a row over there. Their male counterparts, 480 00:26:47,947 --> 00:26:51,867 Speaker 3: the soccer us haven't. These are examples. I think the 481 00:26:51,907 --> 00:26:55,307 Speaker 3: problem I strike with a call like yours, Mark is 482 00:26:55,307 --> 00:26:58,107 Speaker 3: that it look bet your corner. You're dead right at 483 00:26:58,147 --> 00:27:01,827 Speaker 3: your corner. If you like watching men's sport, watch men's sport. Absolutely, 484 00:27:01,907 --> 00:27:04,027 Speaker 3: No one's going to tell you can't or that you 485 00:27:04,187 --> 00:27:08,387 Speaker 3: have to watch women's sport But it's the it's the 486 00:27:08,547 --> 00:27:12,227 Speaker 3: underlying negativity that has aimed towards it that I have 487 00:27:12,267 --> 00:27:14,027 Speaker 3: a bit of an issue with. It's almost as though, 488 00:27:14,947 --> 00:27:19,987 Speaker 3: you know, there's a there's as an underlying snarkiness about it, 489 00:27:19,987 --> 00:27:23,547 Speaker 3: as if say, well, why would I watch that? Why 490 00:27:23,547 --> 00:27:26,067 Speaker 3: would I watch that? No one's asking you, no one, 491 00:27:26,187 --> 00:27:28,947 Speaker 3: no one's telling you you have to. They're asking you 492 00:27:29,027 --> 00:27:31,307 Speaker 3: to consider it as an option. You don't have to 493 00:27:31,347 --> 00:27:33,107 Speaker 3: do it, you don't have to watch it if you 494 00:27:33,107 --> 00:27:36,547 Speaker 3: don't want to. No one is asking, well or sorry, 495 00:27:36,867 --> 00:27:43,907 Speaker 3: demanding that you watch sport at all. But I think 496 00:27:43,947 --> 00:27:46,867 Speaker 3: back to some of the most compelling sports viewing of 497 00:27:46,907 --> 00:27:51,267 Speaker 3: the last several years, and at the heart of it 498 00:27:52,147 --> 00:27:55,467 Speaker 3: have been our top female sports people. Look at what 499 00:27:55,547 --> 00:27:59,827 Speaker 3: Zoe Sadowski Sinnate has just done another two medals at 500 00:27:59,867 --> 00:28:03,747 Speaker 3: the at the Winter Olympics for US. Our most successful 501 00:28:03,747 --> 00:28:10,747 Speaker 3: Olympian ever, Dame Lisa Carrington continues to dominate. Like again, 502 00:28:10,947 --> 00:28:13,627 Speaker 3: I don't I don't feel like I need to sort 503 00:28:13,627 --> 00:28:17,547 Speaker 3: of bat for women's sport here the proof is in 504 00:28:17,587 --> 00:28:20,707 Speaker 3: the pudding in terms of people who are watching and engaging. 505 00:28:20,907 --> 00:28:24,987 Speaker 3: Susan talked about media coverage. Those are stats that women 506 00:28:25,027 --> 00:28:28,547 Speaker 3: in sport old Piroa have access to, which you know 507 00:28:28,627 --> 00:28:30,747 Speaker 3: they use, I guess as a as a platform to 508 00:28:30,827 --> 00:28:32,827 Speaker 3: try and you know it say okay, we've got this much. 509 00:28:32,867 --> 00:28:34,387 Speaker 3: Now where can we go next? 510 00:28:37,667 --> 00:28:37,747 Speaker 12: Oh? 511 00:28:37,827 --> 00:28:41,427 Speaker 3: Eight hundred and eighty ten eighty josh, hello. 512 00:28:41,307 --> 00:28:45,827 Speaker 13: Mate, Hey morning, good morning, Hey, just put the nipple 513 00:28:45,947 --> 00:28:51,547 Speaker 13: and well sport in general, A isn't the participation rates 514 00:28:51,547 --> 00:28:56,307 Speaker 13: of all sports come down a bit? And perhaps that's 515 00:28:56,427 --> 00:29:01,587 Speaker 13: more of an economic thing more than a willingness to 516 00:29:01,787 --> 00:29:03,347 Speaker 13: want to participate. 517 00:29:03,827 --> 00:29:05,587 Speaker 3: Yeah, great point, great point. 518 00:29:06,427 --> 00:29:06,627 Speaker 14: Yeah. 519 00:29:06,627 --> 00:29:12,547 Speaker 13: And just with the popularity of basketball, is basketball taking over? 520 00:29:12,707 --> 00:29:16,507 Speaker 13: Like I know in comparison to rugby, the basketball numbers 521 00:29:16,507 --> 00:29:20,827 Speaker 13: are growing. It's the same thing happening with netball, perhaps 522 00:29:21,467 --> 00:29:24,867 Speaker 13: as the female basketball getting a bit more traction. 523 00:29:25,707 --> 00:29:28,827 Speaker 3: Perhaps Yeah, yeah, well I can tell you that basketball, yeah, 524 00:29:28,987 --> 00:29:34,107 Speaker 3: across both genders is absolutely getting traction. My son played 525 00:29:34,107 --> 00:29:36,987 Speaker 3: basketball in the last three years of secondary school and 526 00:29:37,027 --> 00:29:38,787 Speaker 3: I tend up on a Friday night here in Wellington, 527 00:29:38,827 --> 00:29:42,267 Speaker 3: and my goodness, me, mate, the number of players and 528 00:29:42,307 --> 00:29:44,347 Speaker 3: in particular, yeah, there were as many as many girls 529 00:29:44,387 --> 00:29:46,507 Speaker 3: playing it as boys, you know, so many. But I 530 00:29:46,507 --> 00:29:48,347 Speaker 3: think what they what they're doing, and this is quite 531 00:29:48,387 --> 00:29:51,147 Speaker 3: clever because they recognized the environment they're in, is they 532 00:29:51,147 --> 00:29:52,947 Speaker 3: play it on a Friday night, so you can play 533 00:29:52,987 --> 00:29:54,907 Speaker 3: your basketball Friday night and then still have your Saturday 534 00:29:54,907 --> 00:29:56,587 Speaker 3: for your netball or your rugby or whatever it might be. 535 00:29:57,307 --> 00:30:01,147 Speaker 13: Yeah, good, no conflicts of times and things like that. 536 00:30:01,347 --> 00:30:04,187 Speaker 13: But yeah, that's Mikey. So that like, it's always been 537 00:30:04,267 --> 00:30:07,907 Speaker 13: a struggle for families to you know, get enough together 538 00:30:07,947 --> 00:30:10,347 Speaker 13: if you've got three kids, and to get enough cash 539 00:30:10,387 --> 00:30:15,187 Speaker 13: together to have extra activities and things. But right now 540 00:30:15,227 --> 00:30:18,147 Speaker 13: I'd suspect that, yeah, there's a lot of people sort 541 00:30:18,147 --> 00:30:20,507 Speaker 13: of struggling and it's really hard Like, if you've got 542 00:30:20,547 --> 00:30:23,187 Speaker 13: three kids you want them to do things, they all 543 00:30:23,187 --> 00:30:26,267 Speaker 13: want to do three things each, and it's you know, 544 00:30:27,107 --> 00:30:29,147 Speaker 13: it's a bit of a juggle at the moment. 545 00:30:29,547 --> 00:30:29,787 Speaker 12: Yeah. 546 00:30:29,827 --> 00:30:31,667 Speaker 3: The other thing is, I guess in those situations, Josh 547 00:30:31,707 --> 00:30:33,747 Speaker 3: as you kind of gravitate towards the sports which are 548 00:30:33,747 --> 00:30:36,227 Speaker 3: a little bit more cost effective. Like a nipple, you 549 00:30:36,267 --> 00:30:38,307 Speaker 3: see a pair of shoes. Really, that's all you need, right, 550 00:30:38,547 --> 00:30:40,587 Speaker 3: But if you if your daughter's keen on a questrian, 551 00:30:41,667 --> 00:30:43,907 Speaker 3: that's a very different story, isn't it. If you need 552 00:30:43,947 --> 00:30:46,107 Speaker 3: to buy buy a horse or something like that, or 553 00:30:46,147 --> 00:30:48,107 Speaker 3: expensive for snowsport or whatever it might be. 554 00:30:48,947 --> 00:30:51,147 Speaker 13: You want them to go professional as soon as possible, 555 00:30:51,187 --> 00:30:52,827 Speaker 13: get that sponsorship sorted. 556 00:30:52,507 --> 00:30:56,147 Speaker 3: Out, that's right, exactly encourage them. And I've heard a 557 00:30:56,187 --> 00:30:57,707 Speaker 3: lot of people say, I want my kids to play 558 00:30:57,707 --> 00:30:59,867 Speaker 3: golf so that they could look after me in my retirement. 559 00:31:01,467 --> 00:31:03,907 Speaker 13: Yeah, that sounds like a good retirement plan, actually, you 560 00:31:04,067 --> 00:31:08,347 Speaker 13: just yeah, wow, Well, look, if we all had infinite resources, 561 00:31:08,427 --> 00:31:13,627 Speaker 13: would all be you know, Olympic middleists, wouldn't we? But 562 00:31:14,627 --> 00:31:17,107 Speaker 13: I guess I don't know, how do you say, how 563 00:31:17,107 --> 00:31:19,827 Speaker 13: do you measure? You know, how do you make sure 564 00:31:19,867 --> 00:31:23,667 Speaker 13: the kids that that are actually talented get the resources 565 00:31:23,707 --> 00:31:26,867 Speaker 13: to continue the participation. I guess I mean. 566 00:31:26,787 --> 00:31:29,747 Speaker 3: A very good question, Josh, very good question. And I 567 00:31:29,787 --> 00:31:32,747 Speaker 3: think you know the participation part of that is a 568 00:31:32,747 --> 00:31:35,707 Speaker 3: great point. You know, often if I use a sport 569 00:31:35,747 --> 00:31:40,707 Speaker 3: that I'm pretty close to, and that's football, often, you know, 570 00:31:40,827 --> 00:31:44,587 Speaker 3: the kids who go to the academies are the ones 571 00:31:44,627 --> 00:31:48,147 Speaker 3: whose parents can afford to send them to the academies, 572 00:31:48,627 --> 00:31:51,987 Speaker 3: because it costs money to go to a football academy. 573 00:31:52,307 --> 00:31:58,547 Speaker 3: And yet there are countless talented players, not just in football, 574 00:31:58,587 --> 00:32:02,667 Speaker 3: but in many sports who simply don't have access for 575 00:32:02,787 --> 00:32:05,827 Speaker 3: financial reasons. Sometimes their parents can't afford to buy them 576 00:32:05,827 --> 00:32:08,507 Speaker 3: a pair of boo I said before netbules, you know, 577 00:32:08,947 --> 00:32:11,507 Speaker 3: quite accessible. All you needs a pair of shoes. Sometimes 578 00:32:11,587 --> 00:32:15,227 Speaker 3: a pair of shoes isn't accessible if you've got three 579 00:32:15,307 --> 00:32:16,907 Speaker 3: or four kids who all want to play a bunch 580 00:32:16,987 --> 00:32:19,707 Speaker 3: of stuff, you know, the fees and the and the 581 00:32:19,747 --> 00:32:23,827 Speaker 3: gear and transporting them around and all the bits and 582 00:32:23,867 --> 00:32:26,107 Speaker 3: pieces that go with it. You know, for many of 583 00:32:26,147 --> 00:32:28,107 Speaker 3: us this sounds silly, but you know, putting in ten 584 00:32:28,187 --> 00:32:30,987 Speaker 3: dollars at the end of the year for a gift 585 00:32:31,307 --> 00:32:36,787 Speaker 3: for your coach, you know in these times sometimes these 586 00:32:36,827 --> 00:32:42,627 Speaker 3: things are beyond the reach of some families, and more 587 00:32:42,667 --> 00:32:46,507 Speaker 3: and more families are finding themselves in this situation.

And what I think what some people 610 00:33:46,587 --> 00:33:48,947 Speaker 3: do is that they and this is not just an 611 00:33:49,427 --> 00:33:51,507 Speaker 3: with relation to this issue, but in order to make 612 00:33:51,547 --> 00:33:54,027 Speaker 3: their own points, it feels as though they need to 613 00:33:54,147 --> 00:33:57,867 Speaker 3: in some way denigrate the those who hold a different 614 00:33:57,867 --> 00:34:00,027 Speaker 3: opinion or the other side of what they believe. 615 00:34:00,187 --> 00:34:03,347 Speaker 15: Yeah, and then this new coach and I'm mentorest in 616 00:34:03,387 --> 00:34:05,907 Speaker 15: the soccer at already, but this new coach has brought 617 00:34:06,147 --> 00:34:10,187 Speaker 15: the things my way of thinking, and I'm quite liking this. 618 00:34:10,507 --> 00:34:12,707 Speaker 15: The woman's phoenix are doing so well now, you see, 619 00:34:12,787 --> 00:34:15,667 Speaker 15: so you can change your mind about sport. Two people watching. 620 00:34:16,267 --> 00:34:18,427 Speaker 15: I've gone off net but a bit now, probably a 621 00:34:18,467 --> 00:34:20,747 Speaker 15: little bit because of all this. I think the start 622 00:34:20,787 --> 00:34:23,027 Speaker 15: that went wrong in the beginning when it all started up, 623 00:34:23,227 --> 00:34:26,267 Speaker 15: the lady in charge there was it was missing an action. 624 00:34:26,427 --> 00:34:28,267 Speaker 15: She wasn't there and nobody was there to answer the 625 00:34:28,307 --> 00:34:31,347 Speaker 15: questions in the beginning, and that threw it all into disarray. 626 00:34:31,387 --> 00:34:33,427 Speaker 15: And the very started where I say it all went 627 00:34:34,107 --> 00:34:36,147 Speaker 15: wrong in the beginning of that one. You know. So 628 00:34:37,227 --> 00:34:39,307 Speaker 15: then she's pulled out now, But why didn't you put 629 00:34:39,347 --> 00:34:41,787 Speaker 15: out at the beginning and get somebody new come in 630 00:34:41,867 --> 00:34:44,987 Speaker 15: there and it would have been got the fresh start 631 00:34:45,067 --> 00:34:47,907 Speaker 15: earlier on rather than carrying on some months. You know, 632 00:34:48,067 --> 00:34:49,187 Speaker 15: wasted time, wasn't it? 633 00:34:49,227 --> 00:34:49,547 Speaker 8: Really? 634 00:34:50,587 --> 00:34:52,947 Speaker 3: It was about allisudden. Yes, it was an unfortunate chapter. 635 00:34:53,027 --> 00:34:54,667 Speaker 3: I think of Netbull looked back on the year that 636 00:34:54,667 --> 00:34:57,827 Speaker 3: they've had and most of those who were involved actually 637 00:34:57,907 --> 00:35:02,707 Speaker 3: have now departed. But yeah, I am reasonably confident that 638 00:35:02,787 --> 00:35:04,827 Speaker 3: they will not look back on twenty twenty five with 639 00:35:04,987 --> 00:35:08,987 Speaker 3: any great scene of positivity at all. Good to chat 640 00:35:09,027 --> 00:35:10,987 Speaker 3: to you, Ellison, Thank you for calling in quick check 641 00:35:10,987 --> 00:35:15,307 Speaker 3: on the cricket.

Yeah, yeah, I don't. I don't 654 00:35:56,547 --> 00:35:59,787 Speaker 3: think that would happen. John, Well, I can't see that 655 00:35:59,827 --> 00:36:01,867 Speaker 3: any any board member or anybody would be asked to 656 00:36:01,907 --> 00:36:04,827 Speaker 3: pay recompense to to somebody in a situation like this. 657 00:36:04,987 --> 00:36:06,747 Speaker 3: I know what you're driving at, but I don't think 658 00:36:06,747 --> 00:36:07,227 Speaker 3: it'll happen. 659 00:36:08,027 --> 00:36:09,667 Speaker 5: So why should there be load to ride off or 660 00:36:09,707 --> 00:36:13,547 Speaker 5: anybody in the sunset and after what they've done. 661 00:36:15,187 --> 00:36:18,827 Speaker 3: Well, it wouldn't be the first time.

No, I look no, I'm not saying it's right 665 00:36:28,267 --> 00:36:30,747 Speaker 3: at all. And and when you're in a position like that, 666 00:36:30,787 --> 00:36:34,107 Speaker 3: you do need to be held to account. And I 667 00:36:34,107 --> 00:36:36,827 Speaker 3: guess no, Well, I guess when you when you walk 668 00:36:36,867 --> 00:36:41,147 Speaker 3: away from something, then it ceases to be something that 669 00:36:41,187 --> 00:36:43,907 Speaker 3: you can be held accountable for. So I guess of 670 00:36:43,987 --> 00:36:45,387 Speaker 3: what you can do is look back. I think history 671 00:36:45,387 --> 00:36:48,147 Speaker 3: will judge. History will judge you know what what has 672 00:36:48,147 --> 00:36:53,507 Speaker 3: happened in this sport in the last year? Okay, good 673 00:36:53,507 --> 00:36:56,947 Speaker 3: on your John good to chat yep. Marsus Pinely got 674 00:36:56,987 --> 00:36:58,827 Speaker 3: three daughters. They all play netball, but two of them 675 00:36:58,827 --> 00:37:00,787 Speaker 3: are now moving in the direction of sevens thanks to 676 00:37:00,787 --> 00:37:04,187 Speaker 3: some players called Porsche and Georgia and Caitlin just to 677 00:37:04,267 --> 00:37:06,187 Speaker 3: name a few. But they turned up to their club 678 00:37:06,227 --> 00:37:10,107 Speaker 3: and high school, so they're now being converted. Do the 679 00:37:10,147 --> 00:37:11,947 Speaker 3: silver Ferns do that, I think they do much. I 680 00:37:12,507 --> 00:37:17,947 Speaker 3: think most sports have that community outreach kind of segment 681 00:37:18,187 --> 00:37:21,227 Speaker 3: to what they do. But I you know, as I 682 00:37:21,227 --> 00:37:24,707 Speaker 3: said at the top, there are simply more options now. 683 00:37:26,427 --> 00:37:29,347 Speaker 3: You know, if you were a promising young female sports 684 00:37:29,387 --> 00:37:35,827 Speaker 3: person twenty thirty years ago, there were far fewer pathways 685 00:37:35,907 --> 00:37:39,747 Speaker 3: open to you than there are now. There are professional 686 00:37:39,747 --> 00:37:45,867 Speaker 3: pathways that are far more lucrative in football and basketball 687 00:37:46,627 --> 00:37:50,427 Speaker 3: and combat sports and snow sports in terms of the 688 00:37:50,467 --> 00:37:54,307 Speaker 3: money you can earn through competing, the prize money, and 689 00:37:54,347 --> 00:37:57,347 Speaker 3: the living you can earn, plus also the sponsorship dollars 690 00:37:57,347 --> 00:38:00,267 Speaker 3: that are available to you by being involved in those 691 00:38:00,307 --> 00:38:04,707 Speaker 3: sports at a high level. That those pathways simply didn't exist, 692 00:38:05,187 --> 00:38:06,947 Speaker 3: I know, and I've had a pointed out to me, 693 00:38:06,987 --> 00:38:10,427 Speaker 3: there were other sports that you know, females could play, Yes, 694 00:38:10,987 --> 00:38:13,187 Speaker 3: yet they've always been able to play hockey, and they've 695 00:38:13,187 --> 00:38:16,307 Speaker 3: always been able to play these other sports. But the pathways, 696 00:38:16,787 --> 00:38:19,267 Speaker 3: and it's you as I'm saying this, it's not just 697 00:38:19,307 --> 00:38:23,027 Speaker 3: a female thing. The pathways available to our young men 698 00:38:23,107 --> 00:38:27,907 Speaker 3: now are far far greater. If we talk about some 699 00:38:27,987 --> 00:38:31,387 Speaker 3: of the sports I just mentioned there and others. You know, 700 00:38:31,547 --> 00:38:35,547 Speaker 3: there were very very few young Kiwi football is playing 701 00:38:35,587 --> 00:38:41,427 Speaker 3: overseas twenty thirty years ago. Now there are dozens and 702 00:38:41,667 --> 00:38:46,827 Speaker 3: dozens of our men and women football is playing in 703 00:38:46,907 --> 00:38:52,547 Speaker 3: overseas leagues, earning a living a professional football player. That 704 00:38:52,667 --> 00:38:56,707 Speaker 3: simply didn't exist as a pathway not that long ago. 705 00:38:56,907 --> 00:38:58,147 Speaker 3: Nine to one News Talk said. 706 00:38:57,947 --> 00:39:03,147 Speaker 1: Be analyzing the plays and getting the inside weekend sport 707 00:39:03,467 --> 00:39:04,627 Speaker 1: with Jason Vine. 708 00:39:04,827 --> 00:39:07,907 Speaker 3: News Talks V News Talks are being Weekends Sport Final. 709 00:39:07,907 --> 00:39:09,627 Speaker 3: A few texts to mop up here, and I do 710 00:39:10,307 --> 00:39:12,867 Speaker 3: want to thank you for all of the text messages 711 00:39:12,947 --> 00:39:15,707 Speaker 3: and messages of all kinds that you send, or the 712 00:39:15,707 --> 00:39:18,467 Speaker 3: phone calls that you make. As I've often said, we 713 00:39:18,507 --> 00:39:19,947 Speaker 3: don't get the chance to read them all out, but 714 00:39:19,987 --> 00:39:22,827 Speaker 3: we do read them all and you know there are 715 00:39:22,907 --> 00:39:27,627 Speaker 3: varying views. I didn't actually begin this hour wanting it 716 00:39:27,667 --> 00:39:32,747 Speaker 3: to become I guess, a discussion about the place of 717 00:39:32,787 --> 00:39:35,267 Speaker 3: women's sport in our sporting landscape, but it seems to 718 00:39:35,267 --> 00:39:37,387 Speaker 3: have become that in the eyes of a few people. 719 00:39:37,787 --> 00:39:40,027 Speaker 3: I was just more curious, I guess, and I haven't 720 00:39:40,027 --> 00:39:42,347 Speaker 3: really had a lot of clarity about this about whether 721 00:39:42,387 --> 00:39:45,227 Speaker 3: those at grassroots level and the game of netball had 722 00:39:45,267 --> 00:39:48,467 Speaker 3: been turned off by what had happened at the top 723 00:39:48,627 --> 00:39:52,187 Speaker 3: level of their sport. And Andy's found some figures here 724 00:39:52,227 --> 00:39:56,627 Speaker 3: which would suggest that that hasn't happened community level netball 725 00:39:56,707 --> 00:40:00,587 Speaker 3: over one hundred and forty nine thousand registered netball players 726 00:40:00,627 --> 00:40:03,907 Speaker 3: in twenty twenty five. That was a three percent overall 727 00:40:03,987 --> 00:40:10,267 Speaker 3: increase and twelve percent increase in youth netball, and still 728 00:40:10,307 --> 00:40:14,667 Speaker 3: the number one sport played at secondary school. So it 729 00:40:14,667 --> 00:40:18,307 Speaker 3: would appear as though netball at the moment is still 730 00:40:19,827 --> 00:40:24,827 Speaker 3: fairly strong at grassroots and community level. I talked to 731 00:40:25,107 --> 00:40:30,467 Speaker 3: Susan before Sawbridge from Women in Sport Arteta before and 732 00:40:32,627 --> 00:40:34,707 Speaker 3: asked to crystal ball gaze a little bit and if 733 00:40:34,707 --> 00:40:36,747 Speaker 3: we can do that as well. I just wonder whether 734 00:40:37,227 --> 00:40:41,027 Speaker 3: down the track the impact of twenty twenty five might 735 00:40:41,067 --> 00:40:43,907 Speaker 3: be felt. I don't know, it may not it may 736 00:40:43,907 --> 00:40:46,547 Speaker 3: not have often said about football. You know, there's all 737 00:40:46,587 --> 00:40:48,947 Speaker 3: sorts of stuff going on at the very high levels 738 00:40:49,187 --> 00:40:55,107 Speaker 3: at FIFA that people absolutely despise and don't agree with, 739 00:40:55,387 --> 00:40:58,427 Speaker 3: but the game of football seems to be surviving at 740 00:40:58,467 --> 00:41:01,987 Speaker 3: its lower levels. So maybe what happens in the corridors 741 00:41:01,987 --> 00:41:05,867 Speaker 3: of power just happens in the corridors of power, and 742 00:41:05,907 --> 00:41:09,507 Speaker 3: we play and follow the sports that we love for 743 00:41:09,587 --> 00:41:15,627 Speaker 3: that reason, because we love them despite what is being 744 00:41:15,707 --> 00:41:20,347 Speaker 3: done at the top end of sport in sometimes less 745 00:41:20,347 --> 00:41:23,467 Speaker 3: than salubrious fashion. As I say, thank you for all 746 00:41:23,507 --> 00:41:26,747 Speaker 3: your calls and your messages. Speaking of football the derby, 747 00:41:26,987 --> 00:41:29,427 Speaker 3: we'll get inside the Auckland FC and Phoenix camps after one. 748 00:41:30,787 --> 00:41:33,987 Speaker 1: The only place to discuss the biggest sports issues on 749 00:41:34,307 --> 00:41:38,347 Speaker 1: a head off the field, you've got to store. It's 750 00:41:38,387 --> 00:41:41,547 Speaker 1: all on Weekend Sport with Jason Vine on your home 751 00:41:41,587 --> 00:41:44,107 Speaker 1: of Sport News talks me. 752 00:41:46,107 --> 00:41:48,267 Speaker 3: Welcome into Weekend Sport, Welcome back to Weekend Sport on 753 00:41:48,387 --> 00:41:52,987 Speaker 3: Jason Pine with any McDonald here till three Janus on text. Jason, 754 00:41:53,027 --> 00:41:54,867 Speaker 3: were you at the stadium last night? Do you know 755 00:41:55,907 --> 00:41:58,627 Speaker 3: why Brett Cameron and William Havilly were carried off the 756 00:41:58,627 --> 00:42:04,627 Speaker 3: field rather than using the trolley the motorized stretcher. Thanks Jennis. 757 00:42:05,787 --> 00:42:08,267 Speaker 3: I don't know for sure, Janus, but I get the 758 00:42:08,307 --> 00:42:11,747 Speaker 3: feeling it was because they wanted to keep them as 759 00:42:11,787 --> 00:42:15,387 Speaker 3: stable as possible, and I wonder whether being on the 760 00:42:15,427 --> 00:42:20,587 Speaker 3: motorized trolley would have been I guess it would have 761 00:42:20,587 --> 00:42:23,067 Speaker 3: been harder to keep them stable. Brett Cameron and William 762 00:42:23,067 --> 00:42:25,467 Speaker 3: Harvey both had to leave the field last night with 763 00:42:25,507 --> 00:42:28,387 Speaker 3: what looked to be serious injuries. Cameron's was a knee 764 00:42:29,027 --> 00:42:31,587 Speaker 3: William Harvey looked like a neck injury or even a 765 00:42:31,587 --> 00:42:34,907 Speaker 3: concussion of some sort. So I think the reason why 766 00:42:34,987 --> 00:42:39,267 Speaker 3: they were carried off on your traditional stretcher with six 767 00:42:39,787 --> 00:42:42,027 Speaker 3: stretcher bearers was to try and keep them as stable 768 00:42:42,027 --> 00:42:44,027 Speaker 3: as possible. That's the only thing I can think of. 769 00:42:44,027 --> 00:42:45,627 Speaker 3: I guess when you're on that trolley, it maybe goes 770 00:42:45,667 --> 00:42:47,947 Speaker 3: over a few bumps and doesn't keep you a stable 771 00:42:48,627 --> 00:42:53,187 Speaker 3: We're still waiting on more news from both of those players. 772 00:42:53,307 --> 00:42:55,507 Speaker 3: The Hurricanes have issued a statement to say Brett Cameron's 773 00:42:55,547 --> 00:42:58,587 Speaker 3: knee injury is serious and we don't talk rugby after two, 774 00:42:58,627 --> 00:43:00,387 Speaker 3: but man, this is just so tragic for the guy. 775 00:43:00,507 --> 00:43:05,467 Speaker 3: He's only just got back. He's a tremendous, tremendous guy, 776 00:43:05,547 --> 00:43:08,267 Speaker 3: Brett Cameron and has worked so hard to get back 777 00:43:08,627 --> 00:43:12,307 Speaker 3: from a couple of serious injuries. Had an amazing pre 778 00:43:12,427 --> 00:43:15,267 Speaker 3: season from all reports, was ready to run the Hurricanes 779 00:43:15,307 --> 00:43:17,827 Speaker 3: around this year in the number ten jersey, and twenty 780 00:43:17,907 --> 00:43:21,067 Speaker 3: five minutes into the first game he suffers another injury. 781 00:43:21,187 --> 00:43:25,187 Speaker 3: Just absolutely devastating for him and William Harvelli. He came 782 00:43:25,227 --> 00:43:27,067 Speaker 3: on off the bench last night from moll Wana and 783 00:43:27,147 --> 00:43:29,907 Speaker 3: actually added a real spark. I thought he looked really good, 784 00:43:29,907 --> 00:43:32,667 Speaker 3: but then ran into one of his own players. It 785 00:43:32,707 --> 00:43:36,187 Speaker 3: was a very unusual situation where they came together just 786 00:43:36,227 --> 00:43:38,187 Speaker 3: as heavily was looking to kick from his own twenty two. 787 00:43:38,627 --> 00:43:41,827 Speaker 3: He shaped a kick and then didn't and then ran 788 00:43:41,907 --> 00:43:45,827 Speaker 3: into inadvertently obviously one of his own players and went 789 00:43:45,867 --> 00:43:48,387 Speaker 3: down with a heck of a thud. So we're hoping 790 00:43:48,387 --> 00:43:50,387 Speaker 3: for the best for him as well as I say, 791 00:43:50,387 --> 00:43:52,467 Speaker 3: more rugby for you or rug before you after two, 792 00:43:52,667 --> 00:43:54,387 Speaker 3: Josh Mooby, you've got a hat trick for the Hurricanes 793 00:43:54,427 --> 00:43:56,347 Speaker 3: last night and to join us to chat about that, 794 00:43:56,387 --> 00:43:58,427 Speaker 3: don't forget tonight under the roof and d'neda on gold 795 00:43:58,427 --> 00:44:02,227 Speaker 3: Sport and iHeartRadio. The Highlanders up against the Chiefs, two 796 00:44:02,307 --> 00:44:04,907 Speaker 3: sides who won their opening round matches, going head to head. 797 00:44:05,147 --> 00:44:07,307 Speaker 3: One of the full call for you from just after 798 00:44:07,587 --> 00:44:13,267 Speaker 3: seven o'clock tonight. Let's move our attention to football though 799 00:44:13,347 --> 00:44:17,067 Speaker 3: it is a league derby day in the capital, Wellington 800 00:44:17,067 --> 00:44:20,947 Speaker 3: Phoenix against Auckland f C five o'clock this afternoon at 801 00:44:21,027 --> 00:44:24,307 Speaker 3: sky Stadium. A big part of Auckland f c's season, 802 00:44:24,707 --> 00:44:27,027 Speaker 3: and in fact a big part of their two seasons, 803 00:44:27,067 --> 00:44:34,547 Speaker 3: has been Belgian midfielder Louis va Strata Rogerson outside my 804 00:44:36,027 --> 00:44:37,347 Speaker 3: against the post. 805 00:44:39,507 --> 00:44:43,827 Speaker 16: Glueverstrata a yellow Canda minute ago. 806 00:44:44,867 --> 00:44:48,747 Speaker 3: I've go scorn now Louisa Strata to. 807 00:44:48,787 --> 00:44:50,067 Speaker 12: The delight of the part. 808 00:44:50,187 --> 00:44:53,907 Speaker 3: Yeah, Louisverstrada has been so good for the team across 809 00:44:53,947 --> 00:44:56,547 Speaker 3: there well I guess one and a half seasons up 810 00:44:56,627 --> 00:45:00,707 Speaker 3: until now. He has played every minute of this season 811 00:45:00,827 --> 00:45:02,867 Speaker 3: for Auckland FC and said to be a big part 812 00:45:02,907 --> 00:45:06,307 Speaker 3: of their quest to win a sixth straight derby the 813 00:45:06,347 --> 00:45:08,587 Speaker 3: this afternoon. I spoke to Louis Vistrada during the week 814 00:45:08,867 --> 00:45:11,107 Speaker 3: ask them first of all about the main takeaways from 815 00:45:11,107 --> 00:45:14,027 Speaker 3: the one to one draw with Sydney FC. When the 816 00:45:14,027 --> 00:45:17,067 Speaker 3: two teams met in a catch up match on Tuesday 817 00:45:17,187 --> 00:45:18,307 Speaker 3: night in Sydney. 818 00:45:18,827 --> 00:45:22,467 Speaker 17: My first impression of the game was obviously it was 819 00:45:22,467 --> 00:45:26,027 Speaker 17: a difficult trip. We didn't play our best game, but 820 00:45:26,067 --> 00:45:28,907 Speaker 17: in the end a point there was was okay. Obviously 821 00:45:28,947 --> 00:45:31,027 Speaker 17: we wanted to have the three points, but if you 822 00:45:31,067 --> 00:45:33,027 Speaker 17: look back on the game, they had I think a 823 00:45:33,027 --> 00:45:35,747 Speaker 17: bit more dominance in the game, but chances wise it 824 00:45:35,867 --> 00:45:38,747 Speaker 17: was a bit even so in the end, I think 825 00:45:39,227 --> 00:45:39,827 Speaker 17: draw us fair. 826 00:45:40,307 --> 00:45:43,507 Speaker 3: It's been a mixed couple of months for Auckland FC. 827 00:45:43,707 --> 00:45:47,267 Speaker 3: How do you feel you're placed with nine regular season 828 00:45:47,347 --> 00:45:48,067 Speaker 3: games left. 829 00:45:49,707 --> 00:45:51,827 Speaker 17: I think we are still still in the running to 830 00:45:51,867 --> 00:45:56,107 Speaker 17: win the premiership, which is our goal. Obviously there was 831 00:45:56,147 --> 00:45:59,987 Speaker 17: a period where we didn't win as much these six games, 832 00:46:00,787 --> 00:46:02,867 Speaker 17: but I felt like we deserved more than we got, 833 00:46:02,907 --> 00:46:05,227 Speaker 17: so I think if we keep doing what we're doing, 834 00:46:05,307 --> 00:46:09,787 Speaker 17: eventually the point will come. I think we are we 835 00:46:09,827 --> 00:46:11,827 Speaker 17: are doing well and we just we need to win 836 00:46:11,907 --> 00:46:15,147 Speaker 17: this Saturday to start off run again and hopefully win 837 00:46:15,187 --> 00:46:16,107 Speaker 17: a few games in a row. 838 00:46:16,427 --> 00:46:18,827 Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, keep doing what you're doing. It's not as 839 00:46:18,827 --> 00:46:20,947 Speaker 3: though the time is playing badly. You don't feel as 840 00:46:20,947 --> 00:46:24,027 Speaker 3: though you're playing badly at all, it's just perhaps small 841 00:46:24,067 --> 00:46:26,667 Speaker 3: moments and games aren't going quite the way that you 842 00:46:26,667 --> 00:46:27,307 Speaker 3: would hope. 843 00:46:27,867 --> 00:46:30,027 Speaker 18: Yeah, that's that's actually how I would put it as well. 844 00:46:30,147 --> 00:46:32,507 Speaker 17: I feel if you're compared to last season, I think 845 00:46:32,547 --> 00:46:35,307 Speaker 17: we are more dominant on the ball. We also we 846 00:46:35,347 --> 00:46:38,387 Speaker 17: don't can see them any chances, but for some reason, 847 00:46:40,107 --> 00:46:43,907 Speaker 17: the chances we get we can see them, they become 848 00:46:43,947 --> 00:46:47,387 Speaker 17: goals against. And we don't take our chances enough. I 849 00:46:47,387 --> 00:46:50,667 Speaker 17: would say, but this comes out. This comes all down 850 00:46:50,707 --> 00:46:53,587 Speaker 17: to details, like you said, in games, and I think 851 00:46:53,627 --> 00:46:56,387 Speaker 17: if we get the details right, the points will follow. 852 00:46:57,027 --> 00:47:00,947 Speaker 3: The matches against Wellington feel a bit different from from 853 00:47:00,987 --> 00:47:03,787 Speaker 3: other I League games as you prepare for another derby. 854 00:47:05,067 --> 00:47:07,667 Speaker 17: Always it's always a bit different because you obviously always 855 00:47:07,667 --> 00:47:11,027 Speaker 17: play for the fans, but derby's are are so important 856 00:47:11,067 --> 00:47:13,947 Speaker 17: for the fans and for for everyone involved in the club. 857 00:47:14,027 --> 00:47:17,827 Speaker 17: So we uh you always you always do something extra 858 00:47:18,667 --> 00:47:21,507 Speaker 17: when there is a derby coming. So we are all 859 00:47:21,547 --> 00:47:22,947 Speaker 17: looking forward to playing this game. 860 00:47:23,427 --> 00:47:26,507 Speaker 3: So and in the two derby so far this season, 861 00:47:26,747 --> 00:47:29,627 Speaker 3: you've scored early, very early, in Wellington after about thirty 862 00:47:29,667 --> 00:47:32,347 Speaker 3: seconds and in lockie Brook with an early goal in 863 00:47:32,387 --> 00:47:35,787 Speaker 3: the second derby, how important and in such a you know, 864 00:47:35,867 --> 00:47:38,627 Speaker 3: a big game like this is a fast start. 865 00:47:40,027 --> 00:47:42,947 Speaker 17: I think you you cannot underestimate the blow you give 866 00:47:43,027 --> 00:47:45,427 Speaker 17: to a team if you if you start like this 867 00:47:45,507 --> 00:47:47,867 Speaker 17: straight away, I think you put them on the back 868 00:47:47,867 --> 00:47:49,147 Speaker 17: foot and you're on the front foot. 869 00:47:50,427 --> 00:47:52,787 Speaker 18: And Derby's this is this is incredibly important. 870 00:47:52,787 --> 00:47:55,507 Speaker 17: So we're going to try to score again quickly and 871 00:47:55,547 --> 00:47:58,387 Speaker 17: then and and started a game with a lot of 872 00:47:58,427 --> 00:48:00,867 Speaker 17: aggression and and for forward intents. 873 00:48:01,987 --> 00:48:04,987 Speaker 3: Sam Cosgrove is suspended for this game. He's picked up 874 00:48:05,027 --> 00:48:08,027 Speaker 3: five yellow cards, so he won't be available for this one. 875 00:48:08,067 --> 00:48:12,427 Speaker 3: How much will that change the way you play, particularly 876 00:48:12,707 --> 00:48:13,707 Speaker 3: in the attacking third. 877 00:48:14,947 --> 00:48:19,747 Speaker 17: Yeah, obviously Sam has his his his strong points where 878 00:48:19,787 --> 00:48:22,267 Speaker 17: with crosses and he is he's very good keeping the 879 00:48:22,307 --> 00:48:25,227 Speaker 17: ball and as a target striker. So obviously we're going 880 00:48:25,307 --> 00:48:28,507 Speaker 17: to change a little bit when he's not playing. But 881 00:48:28,667 --> 00:48:30,827 Speaker 17: we have we have a lot of quality in the 882 00:48:30,867 --> 00:48:33,947 Speaker 17: squad so we can we still will present a very 883 00:48:33,947 --> 00:48:35,627 Speaker 17: good squad on on Saturday. 884 00:48:36,107 --> 00:48:39,307 Speaker 3: You're on yeah, no, no, you're on. You're on four 885 00:48:39,347 --> 00:48:42,467 Speaker 3: yellows as well, and you served from memory of band 886 00:48:42,547 --> 00:48:45,427 Speaker 3: last year for picking up up five. Is it something 887 00:48:45,467 --> 00:48:47,587 Speaker 3: that plays on your mind that you know when you're 888 00:48:47,587 --> 00:48:49,027 Speaker 3: on four bookings that you've got to be a bit 889 00:48:49,067 --> 00:48:50,827 Speaker 3: more careful or can you not really do that? 890 00:48:52,387 --> 00:48:54,267 Speaker 17: I try to keep it in the back of my mind, 891 00:48:54,267 --> 00:48:55,867 Speaker 17: but in the end, it's it's a game of football. 892 00:48:55,907 --> 00:48:58,027 Speaker 17: And when when the team is in trouble and I 893 00:48:58,347 --> 00:49:00,107 Speaker 17: need to pick up a yellow cord for the team, 894 00:49:00,427 --> 00:49:02,587 Speaker 17: I will, I will, I will not hesitate, and I 895 00:49:02,627 --> 00:49:03,347 Speaker 17: will take the cart. 896 00:49:03,907 --> 00:49:07,427 Speaker 18: That's that's how it works. I just tried to risk 897 00:49:07,507 --> 00:49:08,227 Speaker 18: reward wise. 898 00:49:08,347 --> 00:49:12,107 Speaker 17: Maybe maybe do this like a tackle when it's not necessary, 899 00:49:12,347 --> 00:49:16,107 Speaker 17: maybe I won't do it, but to stop a counter attack, 900 00:49:16,147 --> 00:49:17,107 Speaker 17: I will not hesitate. 901 00:49:18,347 --> 00:49:21,227 Speaker 3: You've played every minute of the season, lowie, and you're 902 00:49:21,267 --> 00:49:24,907 Speaker 3: still running deep, deep into games. How much do you 903 00:49:24,947 --> 00:49:28,267 Speaker 3: pride yourself on that, on playing ninety plus ninety five 904 00:49:28,307 --> 00:49:31,667 Speaker 3: one hundred minutes if needed every week for your team. 905 00:49:32,267 --> 00:49:35,507 Speaker 18: Yeah. I want to play every single second this year. 906 00:49:35,627 --> 00:49:36,547 Speaker 18: That's my goal. 907 00:49:36,947 --> 00:49:41,507 Speaker 17: So yeah, I go week by weekend, game by game, 908 00:49:41,547 --> 00:49:43,987 Speaker 17: and I just I prepare my body as good as possible. 909 00:49:45,067 --> 00:49:49,067 Speaker 17: My body is also now used to do the loads 910 00:49:49,107 --> 00:49:49,827 Speaker 17: each week. 911 00:49:49,667 --> 00:49:51,147 Speaker 18: So I can do it. 912 00:49:51,147 --> 00:49:53,907 Speaker 17: I'm capable of it, and I feel actually good going 913 00:49:54,027 --> 00:49:56,307 Speaker 17: late into games and towards the end of the games, 914 00:49:56,427 --> 00:49:59,227 Speaker 17: I feel quite good, So I hope I can keep 915 00:49:59,227 --> 00:50:01,547 Speaker 17: playing full games until the end of the season. 916 00:50:02,147 --> 00:50:05,107 Speaker 3: I know you get JPS numbers. Don't your your kilometers 917 00:50:05,107 --> 00:50:06,627 Speaker 3: a track? What are you running a game as a 918 00:50:06,707 --> 00:50:07,667 Speaker 3: twelve thirteen k. 919 00:50:08,667 --> 00:50:09,427 Speaker 18: Yeah, it's always. 920 00:50:09,467 --> 00:50:11,987 Speaker 17: It's always between twelve and thirteen, depending a little bit 921 00:50:12,027 --> 00:50:14,467 Speaker 17: on the game or or the extra time and all 922 00:50:14,467 --> 00:50:18,747 Speaker 17: this stuff. So I would say my top distances are 923 00:50:18,747 --> 00:50:21,067 Speaker 17: close to thirteen or a little over thirteen, but on 924 00:50:21,147 --> 00:50:23,107 Speaker 17: average between twelve and thirteen. 925 00:50:23,627 --> 00:50:25,547 Speaker 3: When you so, when you come off, how like have 926 00:50:25,627 --> 00:50:28,467 Speaker 3: you have you had to guess your kilometers before you 927 00:50:28,507 --> 00:50:30,907 Speaker 3: saw the actual number? Do you think you get pretty 928 00:50:30,947 --> 00:50:32,547 Speaker 3: close to you? Do you know when you've had a 929 00:50:32,987 --> 00:50:35,147 Speaker 3: game that's close to thirteen kilometers for example? 930 00:50:35,907 --> 00:50:36,507 Speaker 18: That's that's no. 931 00:50:37,227 --> 00:50:39,827 Speaker 17: Strangely enough, sometimes I feel when I feel more tired, 932 00:50:39,907 --> 00:50:44,787 Speaker 17: I've run less, So the feeling has I cannot I 933 00:50:44,827 --> 00:50:46,067 Speaker 17: cannot judge by my feeling. 934 00:50:46,187 --> 00:50:50,307 Speaker 18: So no, it's it's it's hard to predict. 935 00:50:50,307 --> 00:50:52,667 Speaker 17: Sometimes when we have when we have the ball and 936 00:50:52,707 --> 00:50:55,107 Speaker 17: we we have a lot of possession, it feels like 937 00:50:55,147 --> 00:50:56,947 Speaker 17: you run less, but you actually run more. 938 00:50:56,987 --> 00:50:58,427 Speaker 18: So it's it's a little bit. 939 00:50:58,547 --> 00:51:01,427 Speaker 17: But if you run, if you run in the defense, 940 00:51:01,587 --> 00:51:06,227 Speaker 17: then the running becomes much harder. So it's psychologically different running. 941 00:51:06,387 --> 00:51:08,547 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's always easy and always easier when you got 942 00:51:08,547 --> 00:51:09,187 Speaker 3: the ball, isn't it. 943 00:51:09,547 --> 00:51:13,227 Speaker 18: It's a lot easier. 944 00:51:14,067 --> 00:51:16,787 Speaker 3: Now. Two goals in the first six weeks of the season. 945 00:51:16,827 --> 00:51:19,147 Speaker 3: Nothing since when's this next goal of yours coming? 946 00:51:20,387 --> 00:51:23,507 Speaker 18: I give you one on Saturday. I won't keep you waiting. 947 00:51:24,267 --> 00:51:26,507 Speaker 3: I love that. I know that you'd you'd sit at 948 00:51:26,547 --> 00:51:28,147 Speaker 3: the start of the season. You want to match, if 949 00:51:28,187 --> 00:51:30,187 Speaker 3: not better, your contribution from last year. 950 00:51:30,387 --> 00:51:30,787 Speaker 18: I guess that. 951 00:51:31,107 --> 00:51:32,627 Speaker 3: I guess the chances have to four your way. They 952 00:51:32,627 --> 00:51:34,147 Speaker 3: don't they. I mean you look like you look at 953 00:51:34,147 --> 00:51:36,387 Speaker 3: Sam Cosgrove, Locky Brook, Jesse Rand or they're kind of 954 00:51:36,387 --> 00:51:38,667 Speaker 3: hogging all the chances, really, aren't they. 955 00:51:39,707 --> 00:51:42,147 Speaker 17: Yeah, they'll be also but also creating the chances. So 956 00:51:42,187 --> 00:51:44,787 Speaker 17: I don't mind. I have a different role in the team, 957 00:51:45,107 --> 00:51:47,387 Speaker 17: but if I if I have an opportunity, I will 958 00:51:47,387 --> 00:51:48,027 Speaker 17: not hesitate. 959 00:51:49,187 --> 00:51:54,107 Speaker 3: And how different or not are Auckland FC's tactics and 960 00:51:54,227 --> 00:51:57,467 Speaker 3: playing style this year compared to last season. Is there 961 00:51:57,547 --> 00:52:00,107 Speaker 3: much of a change or are you approaching games and 962 00:52:00,187 --> 00:52:01,387 Speaker 3: pretty much the same way? 963 00:52:02,907 --> 00:52:06,227 Speaker 17: I think obviously with with different players, you you have 964 00:52:06,387 --> 00:52:10,187 Speaker 17: different systems. I think we play now to the strengths 965 00:52:10,187 --> 00:52:13,907 Speaker 17: of our players more than and last year we we 966 00:52:13,907 --> 00:52:16,787 Speaker 17: we we used to the strengths of the other players 967 00:52:16,787 --> 00:52:19,787 Speaker 17: that we're playing, So it's always a bit a bit different. 968 00:52:21,067 --> 00:52:23,507 Speaker 17: We also have a few options in games when when 969 00:52:23,547 --> 00:52:25,307 Speaker 17: we when we go to a five back or we 970 00:52:25,347 --> 00:52:29,507 Speaker 17: have different options. So tactically it's there are there are 971 00:52:29,547 --> 00:52:33,027 Speaker 17: still a few same principles, but the structure sometimes changes. 972 00:52:34,187 --> 00:52:37,107 Speaker 3: The rist, the rist guard that you wear, is that 973 00:52:37,667 --> 00:52:41,427 Speaker 3: is that a superstition? I remember last year and you said, no, no, 974 00:52:41,507 --> 00:52:44,227 Speaker 3: it's actually to protect have you is there is there 975 00:52:44,267 --> 00:52:45,667 Speaker 3: a I don't know. Do you wear it just to 976 00:52:45,707 --> 00:52:47,147 Speaker 3: protect that particular rist? 977 00:52:48,147 --> 00:52:50,667 Speaker 17: Yeah, so I had I had quite a bad injury 978 00:52:50,667 --> 00:52:53,187 Speaker 17: on my wrist, like they call it an evulsion where 979 00:52:53,227 --> 00:52:55,827 Speaker 17: the tendon rubs a piece of bone off in the wrist. 980 00:52:57,067 --> 00:53:00,027 Speaker 17: But I'm basically pain free now, but it's still unstable, 981 00:53:00,107 --> 00:53:03,067 Speaker 17: so it's more a precaution that I don't damage it again. 982 00:53:03,507 --> 00:53:07,107 Speaker 17: But maybe you can call a superstition, but it's I 983 00:53:07,107 --> 00:53:09,267 Speaker 17: would say it's too to protect my wrist a little bit, 984 00:53:09,267 --> 00:53:11,267 Speaker 17: so it's still it still has a purpose yet. 985 00:53:11,347 --> 00:53:13,587 Speaker 3: Yeah, well it seems to be working. And just a 986 00:53:13,627 --> 00:53:15,867 Speaker 3: final question later in the year that your whites will 987 00:53:15,867 --> 00:53:19,547 Speaker 3: play Belgium in the World Cup. You'll have you know, 988 00:53:19,587 --> 00:53:22,707 Speaker 3: the likes of Jesse Randall and Nando and and baby 989 00:53:22,787 --> 00:53:25,507 Speaker 3: Logan and others from your team, you know, playing against 990 00:53:25,547 --> 00:53:27,987 Speaker 3: the country of your birth. So who are you chairing 991 00:53:28,067 --> 00:53:29,587 Speaker 3: for that day? 992 00:53:30,227 --> 00:53:34,987 Speaker 18: That's a very difficult question. I will that's that's a 993 00:53:34,987 --> 00:53:35,507 Speaker 18: good question. 994 00:53:35,667 --> 00:53:38,387 Speaker 17: I wasn't prepared for this one. 995 00:53:39,427 --> 00:53:40,827 Speaker 3: You don't have to you don't have to come up 996 00:53:40,827 --> 00:53:42,467 Speaker 3: with an you don't have to come up with an answer. 997 00:53:42,467 --> 00:53:44,827 Speaker 3: Maybe you could just I mean, it's a no lose situation, 998 00:53:44,987 --> 00:53:47,787 Speaker 3: isn't it, Belgium. When you're happy and you win, you're happy. 999 00:53:48,227 --> 00:53:50,907 Speaker 17: Yeah, either way, I will be happy and sad in 1000 00:53:50,947 --> 00:53:54,387 Speaker 17: one way and happy in the other. So yeah, wonderful. 1001 00:53:54,427 --> 00:53:56,147 Speaker 3: Well we can talk about that game closer to the 1002 00:53:56,187 --> 00:53:58,827 Speaker 3: time and maybe maybe it'll be a different answer. Louis 1003 00:53:58,867 --> 00:54:00,707 Speaker 3: all the best for the derby on Saturday. Thanks, thanks 1004 00:54:00,707 --> 00:54:04,427 Speaker 3: for chatting as always. Yeah, you see you, Lada. Thanks Louis, 1005 00:54:04,467 --> 00:54:10,067 Speaker 3: louisverstrata there. Yeah, I mean, terrific guy and very popular 1006 00:54:10,147 --> 00:54:13,107 Speaker 3: inside that Auckland FC changing room for what he does 1007 00:54:13,147 --> 00:54:16,187 Speaker 3: on the field, and and also of course you know 1008 00:54:16,227 --> 00:54:18,067 Speaker 3: the kind of guy that he is. You can just 1009 00:54:18,107 --> 00:54:20,467 Speaker 3: tell there he's got a bit about him. There's a 1010 00:54:20,707 --> 00:54:22,987 Speaker 3: there's a feature on the A League website which is 1011 00:54:23,027 --> 00:54:26,387 Speaker 3: called your heat map. So when you look if you 1012 00:54:26,427 --> 00:54:28,307 Speaker 3: want to review a game, you go to the game 1013 00:54:28,347 --> 00:54:30,827 Speaker 3: and then you select a player and it shows you 1014 00:54:31,067 --> 00:54:34,507 Speaker 3: a graphic of the pitch and the heat map is 1015 00:54:34,547 --> 00:54:37,227 Speaker 3: how you know. It is the parts of the pitch 1016 00:54:37,307 --> 00:54:40,547 Speaker 3: that that player has been in across the across the game. 1017 00:54:40,627 --> 00:54:42,387 Speaker 3: So for example, if you were looking at a at 1018 00:54:42,427 --> 00:54:45,507 Speaker 3: Francis Devrees, who's the left back for Auckland, you know 1019 00:54:45,587 --> 00:54:47,227 Speaker 3: a lot of his you know, there's a lot of 1020 00:54:48,227 --> 00:54:50,427 Speaker 3: coloring in up and down the left hand side because 1021 00:54:50,427 --> 00:54:51,827 Speaker 3: that's where he goes. He goes up and down the 1022 00:54:51,907 --> 00:54:55,147 Speaker 3: left hand side. Similarly, for you know, a striker, a 1023 00:54:55,147 --> 00:54:57,267 Speaker 3: center forward, most of their work would be in the 1024 00:54:57,307 --> 00:54:59,827 Speaker 3: attacking third. You know they come back to help out defensively, 1025 00:54:59,867 --> 00:55:03,267 Speaker 3: but most of their heat map, the big red blotches, 1026 00:55:03,267 --> 00:55:06,307 Speaker 3: if you like, are further up the field. Louisvus Strata 1027 00:55:06,387 --> 00:55:10,227 Speaker 3: heat map is basically the whole pitch. He's just everywhere. 1028 00:55:10,627 --> 00:55:15,227 Speaker 3: He is incredible, relentless, still running deep into games and 1029 00:55:15,347 --> 00:55:16,987 Speaker 3: it doesn't matter if it's the first minute or the 1030 00:55:17,067 --> 00:55:20,867 Speaker 3: ninety first he's still running. And what was he saying there? 1031 00:55:20,987 --> 00:55:24,667 Speaker 3: Twelve thirteen kilometers every game, every single game. He is 1032 00:55:24,707 --> 00:55:28,027 Speaker 3: a huge part of this Auckland f C side as 1033 00:55:28,067 --> 00:55:31,827 Speaker 3: they look forward to trying to extend their derby winning 1034 00:55:31,907 --> 00:55:37,107 Speaker 3: streak to six this afternoon, six derby wins. If they 1035 00:55:37,147 --> 00:55:39,987 Speaker 3: won this afternoon, they've won the previous five. Paul on 1036 00:55:40,067 --> 00:55:43,227 Speaker 3: Tech says Pinety Phoenix fan here, I live in Auckland. 1037 00:55:43,267 --> 00:55:46,427 Speaker 3: I'm picking my Phoenix to finally get the monkey off 1038 00:55:46,467 --> 00:55:49,547 Speaker 3: their backs and win in a feisty encounter. I also 1039 00:55:49,627 --> 00:55:52,027 Speaker 3: expect my Knicks to repeat the dose and the season's 1040 00:55:52,067 --> 00:55:56,347 Speaker 3: next derby in the playoffs. Thanks Paul. Yeah, look, at 1041 00:55:56,347 --> 00:55:58,627 Speaker 3: some point you'd have to think that the Phoenix would 1042 00:55:58,667 --> 00:56:03,667 Speaker 3: win one of these things, right, five straight defeats. We'll 1043 00:56:03,667 --> 00:56:05,987 Speaker 3: get inside the Phoenix camp and see how they're feeling shortly. 1044 00:56:06,027 --> 00:56:09,107 Speaker 3: Carlo Armiento has been a great addition to the Wellington 1045 00:56:09,107 --> 00:56:11,827 Speaker 3: Phoenix roster the season. He scored five goals and been 1046 00:56:11,867 --> 00:56:15,587 Speaker 3: involved in a lot of their best creative attacking moves. 1047 00:56:15,987 --> 00:56:19,467 Speaker 3: So how are they feeling about breaking this derby drought 1048 00:56:19,627 --> 00:56:24,627 Speaker 3: and stopping Auckland FC's derby domination. Carlo Amana when we come. 1049 00:56:24,507 --> 00:56:29,627 Speaker 1: Back tackles harder opinions, we can sport with Jason five 1050 00:56:29,867 --> 00:56:34,347 Speaker 1: and GJ. Gardnerhomes New Zealand's most trusted home builder News Talks. 1051 00:56:34,347 --> 00:56:36,987 Speaker 3: That'd be one twenty five updating live sport from the 1052 00:56:36,987 --> 00:56:40,147 Speaker 3: Basin Reserve. It's the domestic women's fifty over cricket final 1053 00:56:40,187 --> 00:56:43,307 Speaker 3: between the Wellington Blaze and the Northern District's women's side. 1054 00:56:43,627 --> 00:56:46,867 Speaker 3: Northern all out for one eighty two, having won the 1055 00:56:46,907 --> 00:56:50,907 Speaker 3: toss and elected to bat first. One eighty two all out. 1056 00:56:50,947 --> 00:56:54,667 Speaker 3: That's actually not bad considering they were ninety four for seven, 1057 00:56:55,147 --> 00:56:58,147 Speaker 3: so a bit of a rearguard action Holly Top their 1058 00:56:58,187 --> 00:57:01,787 Speaker 3: wicket keeper scoring thirty nine, Marta mad Down's batting at 1059 00:57:01,867 --> 00:57:05,187 Speaker 3: number nine with twenty five and then Kaylee Knight, who 1060 00:57:05,227 --> 00:57:08,107 Speaker 3: I think was named in the White yesterday fourteen at 1061 00:57:08,107 --> 00:57:11,467 Speaker 3: the end and Lucy Boucher at number eleven twelve not out, 1062 00:57:11,507 --> 00:57:14,307 Speaker 3: so they kind of I guess hadded a few runs 1063 00:57:14,307 --> 00:57:16,747 Speaker 3: at the end and got themselves through to a reasonably 1064 00:57:16,787 --> 00:57:18,987 Speaker 3: respectable total one eighty two. I don't think it makes 1065 00:57:18,987 --> 00:57:22,267 Speaker 3: them favorite against a fairly strong Wellington Blaze batting side, 1066 00:57:22,307 --> 00:57:25,267 Speaker 3: but at least they've got a total to bowl at. 1067 00:57:25,507 --> 00:57:28,107 Speaker 3: Merely Kerk three for forty nine, Jess Ker two for 1068 00:57:28,187 --> 00:57:32,467 Speaker 3: thirty two, Nicole Beard two twenty two and Hanna Francis 1069 00:57:32,467 --> 00:57:35,627 Speaker 3: two for twenty eight, so the wickets shared round amongst 1070 00:57:35,667 --> 00:57:38,787 Speaker 3: the Wellington Blaze bowlers. They will be out shortly to 1071 00:57:38,907 --> 00:57:42,107 Speaker 3: chase one hundred and eighty three to collect a second 1072 00:57:42,147 --> 00:57:45,067 Speaker 3: title of the summer, having already of course claimed the 1073 00:57:45,187 --> 00:57:51,067 Speaker 3: Super Smash title. Just before we talk to Carlo Amiento 1074 00:57:51,107 --> 00:57:54,307 Speaker 3: out of the Wellington Phoenix camp. Auckland FC are back 1075 00:57:54,387 --> 00:57:59,107 Speaker 3: at home next Saturday, a week today Saturday, February twenty eight, 1076 00:57:59,187 --> 00:58:03,307 Speaker 3: they take on Melbourne City. Melbourne City next Saturday. Melbourne 1077 00:58:03,347 --> 00:58:07,507 Speaker 3: City won the Grand Final last year Auckland FC won 1078 00:58:07,547 --> 00:58:09,987 Speaker 3: the Premier's Plate, so it's the Premiers against the champions. 1079 00:58:10,307 --> 00:58:11,947 Speaker 3: If you would like to be there and you will 1080 00:58:11,947 --> 00:58:15,307 Speaker 3: be in Auckland next weekend, I've got a six ticket 1081 00:58:15,467 --> 00:58:19,307 Speaker 3: family pass up for grabs, six tickets to go and 1082 00:58:19,347 --> 00:58:22,067 Speaker 3: see this game next weekend. It's a five o'clock kick 1083 00:58:22,107 --> 00:58:24,027 Speaker 3: off at go Media Stadium. As I say, we can't 1084 00:58:24,027 --> 00:58:26,427 Speaker 3: get you to Aukland. But if you are able to 1085 00:58:26,427 --> 00:58:30,587 Speaker 3: get to go Media Stadium next Saturday at five and 1086 00:58:30,627 --> 00:58:33,747 Speaker 3: you want to take five people with you, simply text 1087 00:58:33,787 --> 00:58:37,627 Speaker 3: AFC and your name to nine two nine two. So 1088 00:58:37,707 --> 00:58:40,947 Speaker 3: simply AFC and your name far off to nine two 1089 00:58:41,027 --> 00:58:43,187 Speaker 3: nine two. You're in the draw. We will do the 1090 00:58:43,267 --> 00:58:48,027 Speaker 3: draw on Monday. A big part of Wellington Phoenix's attacking 1091 00:58:48,267 --> 00:58:52,907 Speaker 3: armory this year has been Carlo Armiento, the freshly arrived 1092 00:58:53,347 --> 00:58:54,427 Speaker 3: left sided attacker. 1093 00:58:55,027 --> 00:58:59,387 Speaker 16: No Jerene sets off downfield four on four for Wellington 1094 00:58:59,707 --> 00:59:08,547 Speaker 16: Amiento who fit us from Charlo Armyento's child in front. 1095 00:59:08,347 --> 00:59:10,667 Speaker 3: Of yellow fever. Yeah, that was one of the five 1096 00:59:10,707 --> 00:59:14,547 Speaker 3: goals that Carlo Amiento has scored this A League men's season. 1097 00:59:14,707 --> 00:59:16,747 Speaker 3: I spoke to him during the week about the derby 1098 00:59:16,787 --> 00:59:20,827 Speaker 3: and asked how different Derby week feels compared to other 1099 00:59:21,027 --> 00:59:22,507 Speaker 3: A League games. 1100 00:59:23,147 --> 00:59:25,027 Speaker 14: Yeah, it has a different feel about it. I think 1101 00:59:25,027 --> 00:59:28,467 Speaker 14: the big crowd, the big occasion Auckland and Wellington. Since 1102 00:59:28,507 --> 00:59:30,387 Speaker 14: coming over here, you can definitely feel it. So yeah, 1103 00:59:30,387 --> 00:59:31,547 Speaker 14: I'm looking forward to it again. 1104 00:59:31,867 --> 00:59:34,187 Speaker 3: How does it compare to other atmospheres you've played, and 1105 00:59:34,187 --> 00:59:37,667 Speaker 3: have you played in similar games between teams where there's 1106 00:59:37,827 --> 00:59:40,387 Speaker 3: there's been a rivalry, a derby or otherwise. 1107 00:59:40,627 --> 00:59:42,787 Speaker 14: Yeah, I think where I came from, Adelide obviously have 1108 00:59:42,787 --> 00:59:46,067 Speaker 14: the riginal rivery against Victory and I actually made my 1109 00:59:46,147 --> 00:59:48,667 Speaker 14: debut in that, so I think it's very similar. Both 1110 00:59:48,707 --> 00:59:52,787 Speaker 14: teams probably hate each other and the fans are really passionate. 1111 00:59:52,827 --> 00:59:55,187 Speaker 14: So yeah, it's a good derby and it's a good rovery. 1112 00:59:55,747 --> 00:59:57,987 Speaker 3: Does the history in any way play on your mind? 1113 00:59:57,987 --> 00:59:59,707 Speaker 3: There's no getting away from it. Auckland have won all 1114 00:59:59,747 --> 01:00:03,947 Speaker 3: five so far. Does that create a psychological barrier or 1115 01:00:03,947 --> 01:00:05,667 Speaker 3: a weight on your shoulders at all? 1116 01:00:06,387 --> 01:00:08,747 Speaker 14: Yeah, you can't hide from it because it's five zero, 1117 01:00:09,547 --> 01:00:10,987 Speaker 14: and I think you just need to go out there 1118 01:00:10,987 --> 01:00:13,627 Speaker 14: and put it behind you and just go win the game, 1119 01:00:13,707 --> 01:00:15,507 Speaker 14: because I think more you dwell on it, more you 1120 01:00:15,547 --> 01:00:17,067 Speaker 14: think about it, it's in the back of your head 1121 01:00:17,067 --> 01:00:19,627 Speaker 14: and you start thinking, oh, no, we're going to lose 1122 01:00:19,667 --> 01:00:20,907 Speaker 14: this game. So I think you just need to go 1123 01:00:20,947 --> 01:00:22,947 Speaker 14: out there. And I know it's cliche to say, but 1124 01:00:22,987 --> 01:00:24,627 Speaker 14: it's another game of football, But I think you just 1125 01:00:24,627 --> 01:00:26,147 Speaker 14: need to go out there and play and have fun, 1126 01:00:26,387 --> 01:00:29,147 Speaker 14: because if you're thinking about five nil, it's going to 1127 01:00:29,227 --> 01:00:31,027 Speaker 14: annoy you. And yeah, who knows what's going to happen 1128 01:00:31,067 --> 01:00:31,387 Speaker 14: after that? 1129 01:00:31,867 --> 01:00:33,907 Speaker 3: Is it fuel in some way as well? That you know, hey, 1130 01:00:33,987 --> 01:00:36,187 Speaker 3: when tomorrow and you are part of the first Phoenix 1131 01:00:36,187 --> 01:00:37,667 Speaker 3: team to win one of these. 1132 01:00:37,547 --> 01:00:40,187 Speaker 14: Things one hundred percent. That's what we've been saying all week, saying, 1133 01:00:40,227 --> 01:00:41,787 Speaker 14: you win tomorrow, you can set up our season. 1134 01:00:41,867 --> 01:00:43,107 Speaker 19: You put one back on them. 1135 01:00:43,147 --> 01:00:45,347 Speaker 14: So I think, I think all the pressures on them 1136 01:00:45,347 --> 01:00:46,987 Speaker 14: to keep six nil, we just need to go out 1137 01:00:46,987 --> 01:00:49,107 Speaker 14: there and they're the team we're They're at the top 1138 01:00:49,147 --> 01:00:50,427 Speaker 14: and we're down the bottom. So we need to go 1139 01:00:50,467 --> 01:00:53,187 Speaker 14: out there and just show New Zealand who. 1140 01:00:53,027 --> 01:00:55,307 Speaker 3: We are in a game like this where there is 1141 01:00:55,347 --> 01:00:57,307 Speaker 3: you know, high emotion, particularly in the stands, you know, 1142 01:00:57,387 --> 01:00:59,107 Speaker 3: and us on the media. We tend to build these 1143 01:00:59,147 --> 01:01:00,387 Speaker 3: things up a little bit, you know. How do you 1144 01:01:00,787 --> 01:01:04,227 Speaker 3: balance emotion with keeping a cool head in the heat. 1145 01:01:04,067 --> 01:01:04,547 Speaker 19: Of the battle. 1146 01:01:05,307 --> 01:01:07,507 Speaker 14: Yeah, it's hard, I think out there when you get 1147 01:01:07,547 --> 01:01:09,587 Speaker 14: caught up in at the last two derbies have been 1148 01:01:09,627 --> 01:01:12,267 Speaker 14: full on penalties, red cards. But I think it's important 1149 01:01:12,307 --> 01:01:13,707 Speaker 14: to keep your head because as soon as you lose 1150 01:01:13,707 --> 01:01:16,627 Speaker 14: your head who knows what could happen. You can get 1151 01:01:16,667 --> 01:01:18,747 Speaker 14: sent off, give a penalty. You don't want that, So 1152 01:01:18,787 --> 01:01:20,427 Speaker 14: I think there is a motion, but you need to 1153 01:01:20,427 --> 01:01:21,587 Speaker 14: have controlled emotions. 1154 01:01:22,107 --> 01:01:24,107 Speaker 3: And who sits the tone in games like this? I mean, 1155 01:01:24,347 --> 01:01:26,587 Speaker 3: I mean, you're reasonably seen your player in this team, 1156 01:01:26,627 --> 01:01:29,067 Speaker 3: But is it like a roofer in a Nagasawa or 1157 01:01:29,067 --> 01:01:30,747 Speaker 3: are they the guys who sit the tone for you 1158 01:01:31,147 --> 01:01:33,067 Speaker 3: even before you walk onto the grass? 1159 01:01:33,267 --> 01:01:34,067 Speaker 14: Yeah, one hundred percent. 1160 01:01:34,107 --> 01:01:34,987 Speaker 19: The leadership group. 1161 01:01:35,147 --> 01:01:37,467 Speaker 14: The leadership group, I think the older players, but I 1162 01:01:37,507 --> 01:01:40,267 Speaker 14: think this game on the weekend, it has to be 1163 01:01:40,307 --> 01:01:42,547 Speaker 14: the whole fifteen to sixteen of us because we've shown 1164 01:01:42,627 --> 01:01:44,187 Speaker 14: we can do it in patches. But I think if 1165 01:01:44,187 --> 01:01:47,067 Speaker 14: we lead by example, Roof's leaves by example and everyone follows, 1166 01:01:47,067 --> 01:01:49,307 Speaker 14: I think you need a good, strong group go out 1167 01:01:49,307 --> 01:01:51,147 Speaker 14: there and show the rest of the league who we are. 1168 01:01:51,627 --> 01:01:54,427 Speaker 3: We'll talk about the challenge that Auckland specifically present as 1169 01:01:54,427 --> 01:01:57,667 Speaker 3: a football team. What is it that you've preeped for 1170 01:01:57,667 --> 01:01:59,067 Speaker 3: for ahead of tomorrow. 1171 01:01:59,667 --> 01:02:02,027 Speaker 14: Yeah, they're a good football team, no hiding out the physical. 1172 01:02:02,147 --> 01:02:04,587 Speaker 14: They've got good qualities. I think we just need to 1173 01:02:04,587 --> 01:02:06,547 Speaker 14: be disciplined in the way we defend and then when 1174 01:02:06,547 --> 01:02:08,547 Speaker 14: we have our chances to take our chances. Because they're 1175 01:02:08,547 --> 01:02:13,027 Speaker 14: obviously a good, solid defensive team unit, you can't hide 1176 01:02:13,067 --> 01:02:15,147 Speaker 14: from that as well. They've probably conceded the least amount 1177 01:02:15,147 --> 01:02:17,147 Speaker 14: of goals. I'm not quite sure, but so yeah, I 1178 01:02:17,227 --> 01:02:19,147 Speaker 14: think by our attack on the other hand, I think 1179 01:02:19,187 --> 01:02:21,867 Speaker 14: we scored two goals every game, So I think it's 1180 01:02:21,907 --> 01:02:23,907 Speaker 14: a good challenge for US attackers. And yeah, we can't 1181 01:02:23,907 --> 01:02:25,347 Speaker 14: wait to go out tomorrow and have some fun. 1182 01:02:25,587 --> 01:02:27,707 Speaker 3: Well, speaking of goals, five for you this season, your 1183 01:02:27,787 --> 01:02:31,347 Speaker 3: most prolific Gay League season. How fifth for how are 1184 01:02:31,387 --> 01:02:34,147 Speaker 3: you enjoying yourself? And you know, what have you made 1185 01:02:34,147 --> 01:02:36,267 Speaker 3: of the season so far? From a from a personal 1186 01:02:36,307 --> 01:02:38,187 Speaker 3: point of view, Yeah, I'm loving it. 1187 01:02:38,227 --> 01:02:39,947 Speaker 14: I think you can tell the way I'm playing and 1188 01:02:40,067 --> 01:02:42,987 Speaker 14: the fun I'm having on the pitch. So yeah, hopefully 1189 01:02:43,067 --> 01:02:45,187 Speaker 14: we can hopefully personally I can get some more goals 1190 01:02:45,227 --> 01:02:46,867 Speaker 14: and assist to help the team get over the line. 1191 01:02:46,947 --> 01:02:49,067 Speaker 14: So yeah, I'm full credits chief. He has brought me 1192 01:02:49,067 --> 01:02:51,587 Speaker 14: into a new position. It could have gone anywhere. It 1193 01:02:51,627 --> 01:02:53,787 Speaker 14: could have gone, yeah, I could have it could have 1194 01:02:53,787 --> 01:02:55,587 Speaker 14: been a disaster, It could have been how it's turning 1195 01:02:55,587 --> 01:02:57,787 Speaker 14: out now, So yeah, full credit full credit to him 1196 01:02:57,827 --> 01:02:59,987 Speaker 14: is put belief in me, and now I'm just thriving 1197 01:02:59,987 --> 01:03:01,587 Speaker 14: and I'm loving every single second of it. 1198 01:03:01,987 --> 01:03:04,467 Speaker 3: No disaster, hear. I can tell you that the way 1199 01:03:04,507 --> 01:03:06,307 Speaker 3: you strike the ball with your left foot, it's really 1200 01:03:06,587 --> 01:03:09,627 Speaker 3: catching stuff. Is that a skill that you have worked 1201 01:03:09,667 --> 01:03:12,427 Speaker 3: hard to develop over time? Just then ability to strike 1202 01:03:12,467 --> 01:03:15,067 Speaker 3: so cleanly in goal scoring positions? 1203 01:03:15,667 --> 01:03:18,187 Speaker 14: Yeah, I think I had a coach school probably I 1204 01:03:18,227 --> 01:03:20,747 Speaker 14: think many probably know I'm Damian Murray, So yeah, I 1205 01:03:20,747 --> 01:03:22,947 Speaker 14: had him at Adele City and I probably always. 1206 01:03:22,627 --> 01:03:23,187 Speaker 19: Had the power. 1207 01:03:23,227 --> 01:03:27,027 Speaker 14: But when I was probably sixteen, probably younger, he just 1208 01:03:27,307 --> 01:03:29,267 Speaker 14: put me aside and we just probably had shots after 1209 01:03:29,307 --> 01:03:32,267 Speaker 14: training and just to practice my technique. And I think 1210 01:03:32,307 --> 01:03:35,187 Speaker 14: from there the repetition just I got more confident, more confident, 1211 01:03:35,227 --> 01:03:38,347 Speaker 14: and yeah, as you like, I probably strike it sometimes 1212 01:03:38,587 --> 01:03:41,707 Speaker 14: too hard, but yeah, I love striking a ball, and 1213 01:03:41,747 --> 01:03:44,067 Speaker 14: any opportunity I can have to have a short or 1214 01:03:44,107 --> 01:03:46,347 Speaker 14: had across, yeah, I get excited. 1215 01:03:46,667 --> 01:03:48,387 Speaker 3: So it was a largely technique because I see you 1216 01:03:48,467 --> 01:03:50,507 Speaker 3: move into those positions down the left and you're cutting 1217 01:03:50,547 --> 01:03:53,027 Speaker 3: and you know, like the last goal you scored, you know, 1218 01:03:53,467 --> 01:03:56,347 Speaker 3: are you in a sort of is your mindset now 1219 01:03:56,347 --> 01:03:58,347 Speaker 3: that technique will take over. You don't have to try 1220 01:03:58,347 --> 01:04:00,027 Speaker 3: and just leather the hell out of it. 1221 01:04:00,467 --> 01:04:02,587 Speaker 14: Yeah, especially on that left hand side, where I probably 1222 01:04:02,587 --> 01:04:04,667 Speaker 14: scored majority of my goals this year and get all 1223 01:04:04,667 --> 01:04:06,867 Speaker 14: my tiyes. I think that's my favorite spot. I find 1224 01:04:06,867 --> 01:04:09,227 Speaker 14: that easier than in the middle of the belves because 1225 01:04:09,467 --> 01:04:11,707 Speaker 14: I've done it for so long now. I think it's 1226 01:04:11,747 --> 01:04:14,707 Speaker 14: just repetition, repetition. I know if I make good contact 1227 01:04:14,707 --> 01:04:17,947 Speaker 14: across the keeper majority of the times, it should end 1228 01:04:18,027 --> 01:04:18,827 Speaker 14: up where I want it to be. 1229 01:04:19,107 --> 01:04:20,707 Speaker 3: And right in front of the yellow fever as well, 1230 01:04:21,107 --> 01:04:23,027 Speaker 3: there'll be big obviously in the derby. How much do 1231 01:04:23,107 --> 01:04:24,827 Speaker 3: the crowd lift you in games. 1232 01:04:24,587 --> 01:04:26,707 Speaker 14: Like this, Yeah, one hundred percent. For some reason, I 1233 01:04:26,787 --> 01:04:29,187 Speaker 14: have a habit from in scoring right in front of them, 1234 01:04:29,347 --> 01:04:31,947 Speaker 14: So hopefully that happens tomorrow. But yeah, the yellow fever 1235 01:04:31,987 --> 01:04:34,587 Speaker 14: and tomorrow the crowd will be massive, especially playing in 1236 01:04:34,587 --> 01:04:37,107 Speaker 14: front of them and at home. I think that just 1237 01:04:37,307 --> 01:04:40,067 Speaker 14: one percent two percent extra energy, I think. Yeah, hopefully 1238 01:04:40,067 --> 01:04:41,107 Speaker 14: it'll be turned out tomorrow. 1239 01:04:41,627 --> 01:04:44,627 Speaker 3: And your contractious this season. I think you have you 1240 01:04:44,667 --> 01:04:47,627 Speaker 3: started to think about, you know, or as have conversations 1241 01:04:47,627 --> 01:04:50,187 Speaker 3: started about possibly extending. Would you like to stay? 1242 01:04:50,627 --> 01:04:50,787 Speaker 18: Yeah? 1243 01:04:50,827 --> 01:04:53,107 Speaker 14: I'd love to stay, but nothing has happened at the moment, 1244 01:04:53,187 --> 01:04:55,267 Speaker 14: so yeah, I'm just focusing on myself at the moment, 1245 01:04:55,427 --> 01:04:58,627 Speaker 14: just continue the work and hopefully who knows what will 1246 01:04:58,627 --> 01:05:00,987 Speaker 14: happen in the future. But like I said, I'm loving 1247 01:05:00,987 --> 01:05:03,307 Speaker 14: my time here and yeah, we'll see what happens. 1248 01:05:03,747 --> 01:05:05,987 Speaker 3: Just finally, I wouldn't tomorrow. Does it feel like that 1249 01:05:06,027 --> 01:05:08,587 Speaker 3: would be worth even more than the three points and 1250 01:05:08,587 --> 01:05:10,147 Speaker 3: that it would give you a spring board into the 1251 01:05:10,187 --> 01:05:12,187 Speaker 3: back end the last eight games of the season to 1252 01:05:12,227 --> 01:05:14,227 Speaker 3: really make a run at the six and water is 1253 01:05:14,267 --> 01:05:15,147 Speaker 3: a very tight table. 1254 01:05:15,587 --> 01:05:17,827 Speaker 14: Yeah, one hundred percent. I think we're only four points 1255 01:05:17,867 --> 01:05:19,667 Speaker 14: off to six and we went tomorrow. I think everyone 1256 01:05:19,707 --> 01:05:21,747 Speaker 14: plays each other this round as well, so it could 1257 01:05:21,787 --> 01:05:24,227 Speaker 14: be a lot closer. So I think it's just one 1258 01:05:24,267 --> 01:05:26,787 Speaker 14: game at a time mentality. But yeah, tomorrow is probably 1259 01:05:26,787 --> 01:05:29,507 Speaker 14: a massive, massive game on all fronts the derby, how 1260 01:05:29,507 --> 01:05:32,507 Speaker 14: close the table is, where our season's at, So yeah, 1261 01:05:32,507 --> 01:05:34,667 Speaker 14: there's so many positives to look forward to tomorrow and 1262 01:05:34,707 --> 01:05:36,267 Speaker 14: hopefully we're on the right side of the result. 1263 01:05:36,387 --> 01:05:39,947 Speaker 3: That is the voice of Carlo Armiento Wellington Phoenix Attack 1264 01:05:39,947 --> 01:05:42,747 Speaker 3: ahead of the Derby this afternoon, five o'clock keen to 1265 01:05:42,747 --> 01:05:46,347 Speaker 3: hear from Phoenix fans Auckland f C fans, how confident 1266 01:05:46,387 --> 01:05:48,747 Speaker 3: do you feel? I know there's a good contingent of 1267 01:05:48,827 --> 01:05:51,747 Speaker 3: Auckland FC fans in Wellington. They have had to open 1268 01:05:51,827 --> 01:05:54,667 Speaker 3: up an extra block of seating to accommodate them all. 1269 01:05:55,267 --> 01:05:58,947 Speaker 3: Hearing upwards of eight hundred traveling Auckland FC fans will 1270 01:05:58,947 --> 01:06:01,467 Speaker 3: be there at the northern end of Sky Stadium a 1271 01:06:01,467 --> 01:06:05,987 Speaker 3: bit later on this afternoon. They add a tremendous atmosphere 1272 01:06:06,027 --> 01:06:08,827 Speaker 3: to the you know, to the games that they're at 1273 01:06:08,867 --> 01:06:11,707 Speaker 3: home or away. Anyone who's been to go Media Stadium 1274 01:06:11,747 --> 01:06:14,787 Speaker 3: to watch Auckland FC play this season or last season, 1275 01:06:14,827 --> 01:06:16,947 Speaker 3: we'll know what it's like there. And when they travel 1276 01:06:16,987 --> 01:06:19,907 Speaker 3: it's I mean it's almost I've always thought when you 1277 01:06:19,947 --> 01:06:22,947 Speaker 3: travel away to watch your team play, there's something just 1278 01:06:22,987 --> 01:06:24,987 Speaker 3: a bit different and a bit special about it. If 1279 01:06:25,027 --> 01:06:27,867 Speaker 3: you've had the opportunity to watch the All Blacks play overseas, 1280 01:06:28,387 --> 01:06:30,787 Speaker 3: it just feels different, doesn't it. It's different. You feel 1281 01:06:30,787 --> 01:06:34,227 Speaker 3: like you're part of it. You're all there behind enemy lines, 1282 01:06:35,227 --> 01:06:38,627 Speaker 3: so you know you want to be you want to 1283 01:06:38,627 --> 01:06:42,027 Speaker 3: play your part. I think way away fans are a 1284 01:06:42,027 --> 01:06:46,387 Speaker 3: lot louder. Yes, there might be fewer of them, and 1285 01:06:46,427 --> 01:06:48,907 Speaker 3: this afternoon, I'm certainly hoping there'll be a crowd of 1286 01:06:49,347 --> 01:06:52,307 Speaker 3: twelve to fifteen thousand there at sky Stadium, the majority 1287 01:06:52,387 --> 01:06:56,307 Speaker 3: of them Phoenix fans. But when you're a traveling fan, 1288 01:06:56,387 --> 01:06:59,267 Speaker 3: you make a lot more noise, a lot more noise. 1289 01:06:59,347 --> 01:07:02,747 Speaker 3: Dere Okay, you're going six and oh. 1290 01:07:02,347 --> 01:07:04,667 Speaker 8: Yeah, I think so, I think so. But you're right 1291 01:07:04,707 --> 01:07:06,787 Speaker 8: about the traveling fans. I was at the first Starvy 1292 01:07:06,867 --> 01:07:08,947 Speaker 8: game and it was it was tacked to the brim 1293 01:07:09,307 --> 01:07:12,307 Speaker 8: really early on, and there was a lot of Phoenix 1294 01:07:12,347 --> 01:07:14,547 Speaker 8: fans just off to my left. Oh, I would have 1295 01:07:14,547 --> 01:07:16,627 Speaker 8: been off to the left of where your commentary was too. 1296 01:07:16,787 --> 01:07:18,547 Speaker 8: They would have been out there, That's where they were. 1297 01:07:18,707 --> 01:07:21,587 Speaker 8: And when Ruper got their goal, they really made a 1298 01:07:21,627 --> 01:07:23,627 Speaker 8: lot of noise. But in the second half, the port 1299 01:07:23,747 --> 01:07:26,147 Speaker 8: got going and there was a couple of weird decisions 1300 01:07:26,187 --> 01:07:28,267 Speaker 8: with the Vaar, but they came home in the end. 1301 01:07:28,307 --> 01:07:30,427 Speaker 8: And I think that there's a couple of reasons I 1302 01:07:30,427 --> 01:07:34,227 Speaker 8: think Auckland's going to win today is because I think 1303 01:07:34,827 --> 01:07:37,507 Speaker 8: I found out that Tim Pain wasn't playing on the right. 1304 01:07:38,107 --> 01:07:40,707 Speaker 8: That's Jesse Randall's side, and he's in great form at 1305 01:07:40,747 --> 01:07:42,667 Speaker 8: the moment. He might have struggled a little bit against 1306 01:07:42,667 --> 01:07:47,107 Speaker 8: that that Sydney defender Grant, who's a very experienced guy's 1307 01:07:47,107 --> 01:07:47,907 Speaker 8: been to the World Cup. 1308 01:07:48,147 --> 01:07:49,147 Speaker 13: But I don't think he's going to. 1309 01:07:49,067 --> 01:07:51,187 Speaker 8: Struggle too much today. He'll be a real danger. And 1310 01:07:51,227 --> 01:07:55,507 Speaker 8: I think that Cosgrove not being there sometimes, Jason, when 1311 01:07:55,507 --> 01:07:57,547 Speaker 8: you're bring in a tall center forward is good in 1312 01:07:57,587 --> 01:08:01,827 Speaker 8: the air. Sometimes without thinking, players subconsciously start thinking, wow, 1313 01:08:01,947 --> 01:08:04,147 Speaker 8: we'll go down, we'll go down near the flank and 1314 01:08:04,147 --> 01:08:06,587 Speaker 8: we'll just throw across as you know, and you forget 1315 01:08:07,187 --> 01:08:12,667 Speaker 8: the nice build up. And whenever Auckland uses the lucky Brook, 1316 01:08:12,947 --> 01:08:15,667 Speaker 8: especially when he's a midfield, their build up is always 1317 01:08:15,787 --> 01:08:18,107 Speaker 8: nice and neat and tidy, rather than slinging it over 1318 01:08:18,147 --> 01:08:19,907 Speaker 8: to a tall set of forward. I think May will 1319 01:08:19,947 --> 01:08:22,587 Speaker 8: probably come in today and he's got a tight turning 1320 01:08:23,747 --> 01:08:26,467 Speaker 8: circle and he loves to shoot. He doesn't always like 1321 01:08:26,507 --> 01:08:28,187 Speaker 8: the past, but he loves to shoot on that left 1322 01:08:28,187 --> 01:08:30,987 Speaker 8: fot and that could be a different problem from them 1323 01:08:31,027 --> 01:08:32,587 Speaker 8: to solve. And I'll tell you the other thing I 1324 01:08:32,747 --> 01:08:35,307 Speaker 8: like to make Auckland favorites is if you look at 1325 01:08:35,307 --> 01:08:39,627 Speaker 8: the back four, the two center backs are pragmatic, right 1326 01:08:39,947 --> 01:08:42,147 Speaker 8: Pinaker in that and Hall, they'll put their foot through 1327 01:08:42,187 --> 01:08:45,187 Speaker 8: the ball, you know, when there's any danger lurking anywhere, 1328 01:08:45,227 --> 01:08:47,587 Speaker 8: they'll put their foot through the ball like Virgil van Dytwood, 1329 01:08:47,907 --> 01:08:51,147 Speaker 8: you know. And the two fullbacks are really the creative 1330 01:08:51,187 --> 01:08:54,627 Speaker 8: passes from the back, whereas it Taliano, God bless him. 1331 01:08:55,147 --> 01:08:57,227 Speaker 8: He plays the game the right way and his attitude 1332 01:08:57,267 --> 01:08:59,587 Speaker 8: is great. But he's got three center backs who are 1333 01:08:59,627 --> 01:09:03,187 Speaker 8: all fairly young, and they've got this dynamics sort of 1334 01:09:03,507 --> 01:09:05,027 Speaker 8: we have to play them all out from the back, 1335 01:09:05,107 --> 01:09:08,107 Speaker 8: no matter what sort of defensive pressure we're under type 1336 01:09:08,107 --> 01:09:11,067 Speaker 8: of situation. And they're not pragmatic, and they're playing to 1337 01:09:11,627 --> 01:09:14,627 Speaker 8: the playing to instructions. They understand that and they like 1338 01:09:14,667 --> 01:09:16,627 Speaker 8: to work in with a goalkeeper where they're passing around 1339 01:09:16,667 --> 01:09:19,067 Speaker 8: on their own said, I understand that. But I think 1340 01:09:19,147 --> 01:09:22,627 Speaker 8: Auclan's Stevie Korrug has got his center backs being a 1341 01:09:22,627 --> 01:09:25,067 Speaker 8: lot more pragmatic and they just get rid of the danger. 1342 01:09:25,187 --> 01:09:27,467 Speaker 8: It's gone, it's out of the way. We'll set up. 1343 01:09:27,667 --> 01:09:30,547 Speaker 8: And I think we saw that when they had a 1344 01:09:30,547 --> 01:09:33,387 Speaker 8: player sent off in the other game and they all 1345 01:09:33,387 --> 01:09:35,187 Speaker 8: of a sudden, all they did was replace the center 1346 01:09:35,187 --> 01:09:37,907 Speaker 8: back with another one, and they played pragmatic the rest 1347 01:09:37,947 --> 01:09:39,627 Speaker 8: of the game and they held on and I think 1348 01:09:39,747 --> 01:09:41,267 Speaker 8: that's why Aukland's going to win today. 1349 01:09:41,587 --> 01:09:43,787 Speaker 3: All right, Derek, God analysis is always from you, mate, 1350 01:09:43,827 --> 01:09:45,507 Speaker 3: and you did right about the center backs. Yeah, sometimes 1351 01:09:45,507 --> 01:09:47,547 Speaker 3: it's done. The wrong with getting rid of it, nothing 1352 01:09:47,587 --> 01:09:49,747 Speaker 3: wrong with clearing your lines. You don't always have to 1353 01:09:49,747 --> 01:09:52,387 Speaker 3: play fancy stuff in the back. Thanks Derek, thanks for 1354 01:09:52,467 --> 01:09:55,547 Speaker 3: your call. He's Gngkloer Taliano, coach of the Phoenix. I 1355 01:09:55,587 --> 01:09:57,587 Speaker 3: asked him during the week if he had to manage 1356 01:09:57,867 --> 01:10:00,587 Speaker 3: his players emotions ahead of days like this. 1357 01:10:04,347 --> 01:10:08,747 Speaker 20: I think, you know, someone like Z for example, in 1358 01:10:08,787 --> 01:10:11,507 Speaker 20: the last game, copped a lot of attention, but I 1359 01:10:11,507 --> 01:10:13,747 Speaker 20: think it was more the frustration with the refereeing decisions 1360 01:10:13,747 --> 01:10:17,307 Speaker 20: that were going against him. You know, those are the 1361 01:10:17,347 --> 01:10:21,107 Speaker 20: things I can't really manage, you know, before a game. 1362 01:10:21,547 --> 01:10:24,707 Speaker 20: But again, I think the group is maturing slowly and 1363 01:10:24,707 --> 01:10:29,587 Speaker 20: they're realizing that even with inconsistencies with refereeing, inconsistencies with 1364 01:10:30,427 --> 01:10:34,067 Speaker 20: how the games fluctuate, that they have to hold themselves 1365 01:10:34,067 --> 01:10:36,747 Speaker 20: to account and have to be accountable on all their actions, 1366 01:10:36,787 --> 01:10:39,227 Speaker 20: and that's being mature, you know, from a mental aspect 1367 01:10:39,227 --> 01:10:39,587 Speaker 20: as well. 1368 01:10:40,027 --> 01:10:42,387 Speaker 19: So we're starting to see that with the team. 1369 01:10:42,507 --> 01:10:44,627 Speaker 20: I think, you know, we've had I think four games 1370 01:10:44,667 --> 01:10:48,467 Speaker 20: now where we've come back from a from a two 1371 01:10:48,467 --> 01:10:51,907 Speaker 20: goal deficit, and they've shown the maturity and they're slowly, 1372 01:10:51,987 --> 01:10:55,187 Speaker 20: slowly maturing as a group. 1373 01:10:55,467 --> 01:10:56,067 Speaker 19: In some ways. 1374 01:10:56,107 --> 01:10:58,867 Speaker 3: Could you ask them to channel the emotion and to 1375 01:10:58,947 --> 01:11:01,467 Speaker 3: getting onto the onto the front foot and was likely 1376 01:11:01,507 --> 01:11:03,867 Speaker 3: to be a Philly robust contest. 1377 01:11:05,507 --> 01:11:07,667 Speaker 20: You can talk all the plans, you can talk all 1378 01:11:07,707 --> 01:11:09,587 Speaker 20: the tactics, you can talk all the intention, but the 1379 01:11:09,587 --> 01:11:13,827 Speaker 20: game itself has its own dynamic. So I don't think 1380 01:11:13,907 --> 01:11:16,587 Speaker 20: a group goes into it thinking one particular way and 1381 01:11:16,587 --> 01:11:19,187 Speaker 20: it's going to pan out. They have to be what's 1382 01:11:19,187 --> 01:11:22,187 Speaker 20: the word, flexible and mentally resilient. And I think that 1383 01:11:24,027 --> 01:11:27,507 Speaker 20: you know, when you talk about emotion, how you navigate 1384 01:11:27,507 --> 01:11:31,507 Speaker 20: through a game. You can plan, but ever really comes 1385 01:11:31,547 --> 01:11:33,387 Speaker 20: down to the occasion, and it comes down to really 1386 01:11:33,427 --> 01:11:35,027 Speaker 20: the ones that can stay in the moment the longest. 1387 01:11:35,507 --> 01:11:37,187 Speaker 3: Some games just feel bigger than others. I don't know, 1388 01:11:37,227 --> 01:11:39,827 Speaker 3: maybe it's not the same inside the team, outside the team, 1389 01:11:39,827 --> 01:11:42,707 Speaker 3: it certainly does mis tomorrow just about winning this game 1390 01:11:42,747 --> 01:11:43,747 Speaker 3: in any way that you can. 1391 01:11:44,147 --> 01:11:46,627 Speaker 19: Of course, every game is like that, especially this one. 1392 01:11:47,227 --> 01:11:50,787 Speaker 20: You know, everyone talks about like philosophy and how you 1393 01:11:50,827 --> 01:11:55,347 Speaker 20: play performance and all those things. They're great marketers, but ultimately, 1394 01:11:55,387 --> 01:11:57,427 Speaker 20: you know, we're here to win. We're getting to the 1395 01:11:57,627 --> 01:12:01,467 Speaker 20: pointy end of the season, and irrespective whether it's Auckland 1396 01:12:01,547 --> 01:12:04,187 Speaker 20: or whether it's Sydney or you know, Wanderers, we have 1397 01:12:04,267 --> 01:12:06,027 Speaker 20: to win. Like we're getting to a stage now where 1398 01:12:06,027 --> 01:12:07,827 Speaker 20: the see in now every game means something. 1399 01:12:08,187 --> 01:12:09,787 Speaker 19: So this is like an early Grand viinyl. 1400 01:12:09,947 --> 01:12:13,787 Speaker 20: So but everything else with the Derby, you know, comes 1401 01:12:13,787 --> 01:12:16,467 Speaker 20: with its own narrative around it, like we can't control that. 1402 01:12:16,587 --> 01:12:18,627 Speaker 20: But the boys are up for the game and they're 1403 01:12:18,627 --> 01:12:20,267 Speaker 20: going to give one hundred percent and that for me 1404 01:12:20,347 --> 01:12:21,347 Speaker 20: is the most important thing. 1405 01:12:21,387 --> 01:12:23,187 Speaker 19: And that we don't you know, do I wondering? 1406 01:12:23,387 --> 01:12:26,387 Speaker 3: I just want to start pate when he was coming. 1407 01:12:26,467 --> 01:12:29,387 Speaker 3: I'm sure you make plans to accommodate him within your system. 1408 01:12:29,787 --> 01:12:32,907 Speaker 3: You don't ever play really similar Tom with him gone. 1409 01:12:32,987 --> 01:12:35,027 Speaker 3: So you had to throw out a bunch of notes 1410 01:12:35,027 --> 01:12:35,627 Speaker 3: and said. 1411 01:12:36,307 --> 01:12:40,827 Speaker 19: Not really, I still have I still have standard. He's adjusting. 1412 01:12:40,867 --> 01:12:42,387 Speaker 20: It's going to take a little bit more time for 1413 01:12:42,467 --> 01:12:45,307 Speaker 20: him to to understand the league. You know, we had 1414 01:12:45,347 --> 01:12:47,787 Speaker 20: a good conversation after the Wanderers game. Didn't realize how 1415 01:12:47,867 --> 01:12:49,947 Speaker 20: intense the A League was in terms of pressing and 1416 01:12:50,067 --> 01:12:51,107 Speaker 20: recoveries and so on. 1417 01:12:52,067 --> 01:12:53,707 Speaker 19: But I have Rumi Najerie. 1418 01:12:54,787 --> 01:12:59,947 Speaker 20: You know, for me, if every player had the same 1419 01:12:59,947 --> 01:13:01,907 Speaker 20: mentality as Rami, we wouldn't lose a game. 1420 01:13:01,947 --> 01:13:03,987 Speaker 19: He's he's a warrior. You know, he's a winner. 1421 01:13:04,307 --> 01:13:07,347 Speaker 20: And you know, again, I think he just needs more 1422 01:13:07,387 --> 01:13:10,787 Speaker 20: games and we can see a bit more output for him. 1423 01:13:10,787 --> 01:13:15,147 Speaker 20: But you know, he's very similar to Sarpred. Obviously, Sarprid 1424 01:13:15,227 --> 01:13:17,267 Speaker 20: has more distinguished career in terms of like you know, 1425 01:13:17,347 --> 01:13:19,747 Speaker 20: club level and so on. But we've got those players 1426 01:13:19,747 --> 01:13:21,667 Speaker 20: and the young players as well coming through. You know, 1427 01:13:21,707 --> 01:13:26,667 Speaker 20: they have flashes of the same sort of you know ability, 1428 01:13:26,707 --> 01:13:28,947 Speaker 20: but it's just more about the consistency and making sure 1429 01:13:28,987 --> 01:13:32,747 Speaker 20: that they can perform in a consistent basins in this environment. 1430 01:13:33,467 --> 01:13:35,187 Speaker 20: But I have enough players there that we can be 1431 01:13:35,267 --> 01:13:37,627 Speaker 20: very dangerous. And you saw like Evan, like Corbyn coming 1432 01:13:37,627 --> 01:13:40,067 Speaker 20: off the bench, Nicola Mille using he is coming off 1433 01:13:40,107 --> 01:13:40,427 Speaker 20: the bench. 1434 01:13:40,467 --> 01:13:42,267 Speaker 19: You know, there's a good players to come off and 1435 01:13:42,427 --> 01:13:42,987 Speaker 19: change a game. 1436 01:13:43,147 --> 01:13:46,547 Speaker 3: That is John Caloertaliano, head coach of Wellington Phoenix. Five 1437 01:13:46,547 --> 01:13:50,267 Speaker 3: o'clock this afternoon, cross on techs Piney Auckland improving each game, 1438 01:13:50,307 --> 01:13:53,067 Speaker 3: Wellington's still vulnerable in the final third. Auckland to win 1439 01:13:53,147 --> 01:13:55,747 Speaker 3: three or four to one for the punters over two 1440 01:13:55,787 --> 01:13:58,587 Speaker 3: and a half goals. Yeah, well that that stands up 1441 01:13:58,627 --> 01:14:03,467 Speaker 3: in terms of history. Every Darby has had at least 1442 01:14:03,507 --> 01:14:06,027 Speaker 3: two goals, and four of the five have had three 1443 01:14:06,107 --> 01:14:08,387 Speaker 3: or more, so that's not a bad bet. Chris, You've 1444 01:14:08,387 --> 01:14:11,587 Speaker 3: obviously done your research. Nice work made. We'll review it 1445 01:14:11,627 --> 01:14:14,667 Speaker 3: whatever happens tomorrow here at Weekend Sport ate anyway from two, 1446 01:14:14,707 --> 01:14:17,067 Speaker 3: take a break, come back across the Tasman. We all go. 1447 01:14:17,147 --> 01:14:18,307 Speaker 3: Adam Peacock after. 1448 01:14:18,147 --> 01:14:23,147 Speaker 1: This, call it how you see it? On Weekend Sport 1449 01:14:23,347 --> 01:14:27,267 Speaker 1: with Jason Paine and GJ. Gardner Homes New Zealand's most 1450 01:14:27,307 --> 01:14:28,987 Speaker 1: trusted home builder News Talks. 1451 01:14:29,027 --> 01:14:32,347 Speaker 3: There'd be just gone one forty five on Saturday afternoons 1452 01:14:32,347 --> 01:14:34,907 Speaker 3: we crossed the Tasman catch up with our Australian correspondent 1453 01:14:34,947 --> 01:14:37,427 Speaker 3: Adam Peacock, who joined us now we are. We chatted 1454 01:14:37,467 --> 01:14:39,267 Speaker 3: a bit about the cricket last week. You didn't really 1455 01:14:39,267 --> 01:14:41,347 Speaker 3: want to chat about it then the T twenty cricket 1456 01:14:41,427 --> 01:14:43,427 Speaker 3: of course, shall we are? Should we talk about it today? 1457 01:14:43,427 --> 01:14:46,027 Speaker 3: Do you feel like talking about the cricket today? 1458 01:14:46,547 --> 01:14:47,347 Speaker 21: Ah? 1459 01:14:47,547 --> 01:14:52,347 Speaker 6: No, Yeah, they got what they deserved in not making 1460 01:14:52,347 --> 01:14:56,307 Speaker 6: the Super Rise, but they smashed Demand by nine wickets overnight. 1461 01:14:56,427 --> 01:14:59,307 Speaker 6: The I dare say that would have been the most 1462 01:14:59,547 --> 01:15:03,387 Speaker 6: due celebration of an Australian men's cricket team victory on 1463 01:15:03,387 --> 01:15:08,867 Speaker 6: the international stage in recent memory, if not ever. Yeah, 1464 01:15:09,027 --> 01:15:13,227 Speaker 6: they go away from Sri Lanka having not got anywhere 1465 01:15:13,227 --> 01:15:16,467 Speaker 6: near where they wanted to unfortunately. So yeah, in the end, 1466 01:15:16,547 --> 01:15:19,347 Speaker 6: Zimbabwe and trying to deserve to go through, especially Zimbabwe 1467 01:15:19,427 --> 01:15:22,627 Speaker 6: who beat Sri Lanka the other day, so they're obviously 1468 01:15:22,627 --> 01:15:23,747 Speaker 6: a contender for the whole team. 1469 01:15:23,907 --> 01:15:26,987 Speaker 3: Yeah, and well in Sri Lanka as well. So yeah, 1470 01:15:27,027 --> 01:15:29,627 Speaker 3: they've obviously mastered the conditions and I guess what, the 1471 01:15:29,667 --> 01:15:32,107 Speaker 3: shorter formats the teams come closer together. But you'd still 1472 01:15:32,107 --> 01:15:34,627 Speaker 3: expect Australia to be there. Have you been able to 1473 01:15:34,627 --> 01:15:38,747 Speaker 3: crystallize you know what didn't go well? Why they haven't 1474 01:15:39,467 --> 01:15:42,107 Speaker 3: delivered on what they always deliver on at tournaments. 1475 01:15:42,987 --> 01:15:46,427 Speaker 21: Yeah, I just didn't play well. If Steve Smith was there. 1476 01:15:46,467 --> 01:15:52,507 Speaker 6: Maybe it's different, maybe the bowling was exposed. Yeah, and 1477 01:15:52,907 --> 01:15:56,267 Speaker 6: just tactically couldn't stay on top of it unfortunately. And 1478 01:15:56,427 --> 01:15:59,187 Speaker 6: Mitch marsh By all the planning was that Mitch marsh 1479 01:15:59,307 --> 01:16:02,347 Speaker 6: is the captain, he opens the batting, he gets hurt 1480 01:16:02,387 --> 01:16:04,307 Speaker 6: a couple days before the first game, and then it 1481 01:16:04,347 --> 01:16:07,347 Speaker 6: becomes a bit of a problem. It felt like from 1482 01:16:07,427 --> 01:16:09,747 Speaker 6: that moment on they're all playing catch up. Tim David 1483 01:16:09,787 --> 01:16:12,667 Speaker 6: wasn't available for the first game, so yeah, it's just 1484 01:16:12,707 --> 01:16:14,987 Speaker 6: a bit clunky the whole thing. You've got a couple 1485 01:16:14,987 --> 01:16:17,267 Speaker 6: of guys out of for him, and over here Cam 1486 01:16:17,347 --> 01:16:20,267 Speaker 6: Green is the the poster boy for coppying it when 1487 01:16:20,307 --> 01:16:22,947 Speaker 6: things go wrong with Australian cricket and he's in the 1488 01:16:22,947 --> 01:16:23,707 Speaker 6: firing line again. 1489 01:16:24,747 --> 01:16:27,387 Speaker 3: So Steve Smith went over eventually, didn't he did? He 1490 01:16:27,667 --> 01:16:28,507 Speaker 3: did he play or not? 1491 01:16:29,547 --> 01:16:31,587 Speaker 6: My blurry eyes this morning when I got up, I 1492 01:16:31,627 --> 01:16:34,067 Speaker 6: haven't had another look at the scorecard. I don't think 1493 01:16:34,067 --> 01:16:37,267 Speaker 6: he did. I'm pretty sure they stuck with the team 1494 01:16:37,347 --> 01:16:41,307 Speaker 6: that got themselves into this situation. So yeah, Steve or 1495 01:16:41,307 --> 01:16:45,747 Speaker 6: Steve Smith gets out of the whole escapade is a 1496 01:16:45,787 --> 01:16:48,547 Speaker 6: bucket loaded frequent flying points. 1497 01:16:48,787 --> 01:16:50,387 Speaker 3: That's all I can think of, Well, you're right here, 1498 01:16:50,427 --> 01:16:51,947 Speaker 3: so I've just checked the scorecard and you're right he 1499 01:16:51,987 --> 01:16:55,547 Speaker 3: didn't play, so so yeah, just a just a round 1500 01:16:55,587 --> 01:16:58,387 Speaker 3: trip up and back for Steve Smith and a few 1501 01:16:58,467 --> 01:17:00,827 Speaker 3: more stamps in his passport if they still do that 1502 01:17:00,867 --> 01:17:04,627 Speaker 3: sort of thing. Alright, let's stay overseas. Winter Olympics. Six 1503 01:17:04,667 --> 01:17:07,547 Speaker 3: medals as we speak today. Your three goal to silver 1504 01:17:07,587 --> 01:17:09,947 Speaker 3: and a bronze. It's a pretty good haul, isn't it. 1505 01:17:10,707 --> 01:17:15,667 Speaker 6: Yeah, best ever, that's our most successful games ever. So yeah. 1506 01:17:16,027 --> 01:17:21,667 Speaker 6: The most recent medal was an aerial scheme silver medal, 1507 01:17:22,147 --> 01:17:25,547 Speaker 6: so Daniel Scott and yeah, that's our fifth medal in 1508 01:17:25,627 --> 01:17:28,067 Speaker 6: that event. So we've always been pretty good at that event. 1509 01:17:28,147 --> 01:17:30,787 Speaker 6: It's pretty much the events where we can, yeah we can, 1510 01:17:31,027 --> 01:17:33,907 Speaker 6: we need snow time and they go overseas and play, 1511 01:17:34,027 --> 01:17:37,747 Speaker 6: but they can also train it without needing snow that 1512 01:17:38,147 --> 01:17:41,827 Speaker 6: I know. For aerials, they have this jumping facility up 1513 01:17:41,867 --> 01:17:44,547 Speaker 6: in Brisbane where it's basically water based, so they can 1514 01:17:45,147 --> 01:17:48,827 Speaker 6: do all everything there is to do aeral skating. So yeah, 1515 01:17:48,947 --> 01:17:51,907 Speaker 6: just facilities are narrowed focus on certain events, like we're 1516 01:17:51,947 --> 01:17:53,787 Speaker 6: not trying to get together on an ice hockey team 1517 01:17:53,787 --> 01:17:56,227 Speaker 6: and compete on the world stage. We select the events, 1518 01:17:56,227 --> 01:17:58,747 Speaker 6: we want to fund them and do well in them. 1519 01:17:58,787 --> 01:17:59,987 Speaker 6: So how the care we's going? 1520 01:18:00,067 --> 01:18:03,227 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, very similar extually, we had higher hopes I 1521 01:18:03,227 --> 01:18:06,027 Speaker 3: think to have our best ever games, which would have 1522 01:18:06,107 --> 01:18:08,827 Speaker 3: been all medals. We're going to end up with three. 1523 01:18:09,027 --> 01:18:11,027 Speaker 3: So but some of that sort of stuff. We're not 1524 01:18:11,027 --> 01:18:13,347 Speaker 3: putting an ice hockey team together. There's no New Zealand's 1525 01:18:13,547 --> 01:18:16,707 Speaker 3: curling team or anything like that. But in snowboarding and 1526 01:18:16,747 --> 01:18:19,587 Speaker 3: free skiing, you know, we get good bang for our bucks, so, 1527 01:18:20,347 --> 01:18:22,067 Speaker 3: you know, similar to you, I guess we don't have 1528 01:18:22,107 --> 01:18:25,947 Speaker 3: the you know, the conditions you know, all year round 1529 01:18:25,987 --> 01:18:28,987 Speaker 3: to allow our top athletes to train, et cetera. But yeah, 1530 01:18:28,987 --> 01:18:30,427 Speaker 3: I think we punched above our weight when it comes 1531 01:18:30,427 --> 01:18:31,307 Speaker 3: to snowsports. 1532 01:18:31,827 --> 01:18:33,987 Speaker 6: Absolutely. And also another gold medal, the son on the 1533 01:18:33,987 --> 01:18:38,427 Speaker 6: medal tally was for Danika Mason, the TV presenter, who's 1534 01:18:38,467 --> 01:18:41,947 Speaker 6: a great person. She's good fun. But she decided to 1535 01:18:41,947 --> 01:18:43,827 Speaker 6: go on air on our morning Practfast show the other 1536 01:18:43,907 --> 01:18:47,307 Speaker 6: night other day and there's nighttime over there, and I 1537 01:18:47,347 --> 01:18:47,947 Speaker 6: think she went. 1538 01:18:47,867 --> 01:18:50,787 Speaker 21: To lunch but didn't eat lunch. She just asked for 1539 01:18:50,787 --> 01:18:52,907 Speaker 21: a bottle of vino maybe, and then just kept going. 1540 01:18:53,307 --> 01:18:56,507 Speaker 21: I'm not sure, but yeah, she got some headlines and 1541 01:18:56,547 --> 01:18:59,267 Speaker 21: even the Prime Minister comment and so that's I did 1542 01:18:59,387 --> 01:19:02,307 Speaker 21: make the call over here that if the Prime Minister 1543 01:19:02,507 --> 01:19:04,347 Speaker 21: is able to kind of comment on things like that 1544 01:19:04,427 --> 01:19:06,147 Speaker 21: and have a chuckle about them, it means we're living 1545 01:19:06,187 --> 01:19:08,067 Speaker 21: in society that's not going too bad. 1546 01:19:08,347 --> 01:19:12,467 Speaker 6: You know, we've got our issues, but that's one of 1547 01:19:12,467 --> 01:19:16,147 Speaker 6: the topics of the day. That's kind of capturing. 1548 01:19:15,707 --> 01:19:20,267 Speaker 21: The nature nation's attention. We're a pretty good society stands. 1549 01:19:20,347 --> 01:19:22,427 Speaker 3: Couldn't agree more, couldn't agree more. We had a tuckle 1550 01:19:22,467 --> 01:19:25,427 Speaker 3: over here about that footage as well. Finally, today the 1551 01:19:25,467 --> 01:19:28,827 Speaker 3: Matilda's squad, your women's football squad named for the upcoming 1552 01:19:28,907 --> 01:19:32,987 Speaker 3: Asian Cup which is being hosted in Australia. Decent squad. 1553 01:19:33,027 --> 01:19:35,547 Speaker 3: Any surprises, No, not really. 1554 01:19:35,627 --> 01:19:36,427 Speaker 6: It was twenty six. 1555 01:19:36,747 --> 01:19:38,627 Speaker 21: They've gone to twenty six of these big tournaments now 1556 01:19:38,667 --> 01:19:42,267 Speaker 21: instead of twenty three, so there's no real hard luck stories. 1557 01:19:43,707 --> 01:19:46,187 Speaker 6: I think he's gone pretty well with what everyone thought. 1558 01:19:46,267 --> 01:19:49,387 Speaker 6: Joe Montemira, the coach, he's got a lot of respect 1559 01:19:49,387 --> 01:19:52,307 Speaker 6: in the group, so that's great. We've moved on from 1560 01:19:52,307 --> 01:19:54,227 Speaker 6: making a semi time in the World Cup We've found 1561 01:19:54,267 --> 01:19:56,387 Speaker 6: someone that hopefully is going to get the most out 1562 01:19:56,427 --> 01:19:57,267 Speaker 6: of this group's players. 1563 01:19:57,347 --> 01:19:59,987 Speaker 21: Very experienced. For the group of players, the key is 1564 01:20:00,347 --> 01:20:02,787 Speaker 21: that a few of them are out of season. They're 1565 01:20:02,787 --> 01:20:04,907 Speaker 21: playing in America, so they haven't started their season yet. 1566 01:20:05,267 --> 01:20:07,907 Speaker 6: Others are not playing the consistent minutes they want to 1567 01:20:08,147 --> 01:20:12,027 Speaker 6: at European clubs. Sam Kerr is still being managed. 1568 01:20:11,747 --> 01:20:14,587 Speaker 21: Coming back having a role she plays. The key for 1569 01:20:14,667 --> 01:20:15,587 Speaker 21: me is Mary Fowler. 1570 01:20:15,667 --> 01:20:15,787 Speaker 15: Lot. 1571 01:20:15,867 --> 01:20:17,227 Speaker 6: We could be playing. 1572 01:20:16,947 --> 01:20:18,987 Speaker 21: Teams who are just going to sit off us, and 1573 01:20:19,027 --> 01:20:20,867 Speaker 21: she's the one that's got the magic in it boots 1574 01:20:21,107 --> 01:20:23,387 Speaker 21: to be able to unlock all that. She's barely played 1575 01:20:23,427 --> 01:20:25,667 Speaker 21: at all, say Lot twenty minutes after coming back from 1576 01:20:25,667 --> 01:20:29,627 Speaker 21: an ACL. So it'll be about minutes management for some 1577 01:20:29,667 --> 01:20:32,947 Speaker 21: of our key players in the group stage. But that 1578 01:20:32,987 --> 01:20:34,867 Speaker 21: can trip you up sometimes as well if you're going 1579 01:20:34,907 --> 01:20:36,107 Speaker 21: to get too cute with it. 1580 01:20:36,227 --> 01:20:40,307 Speaker 6: So yeah, intriguing how they manage the situation in all probability. 1581 01:20:40,347 --> 01:20:42,267 Speaker 6: We played Japan in the semi finals, so it's all 1582 01:20:42,347 --> 01:20:43,267 Speaker 6: roads lead to that one. 1583 01:20:43,347 --> 01:20:45,707 Speaker 3: Yeah. Indeed, we will talk about it more as the 1584 01:20:45,747 --> 01:20:49,787 Speaker 3: tournament gets underway next month and across March. But is 1585 01:20:49,867 --> 01:20:52,907 Speaker 3: there I mean, is there a good interest. The Matilda's 1586 01:20:52,907 --> 01:20:55,227 Speaker 3: always seemed to sell out stadiums wherever they go. Is 1587 01:20:55,227 --> 01:20:56,987 Speaker 3: it going to be similar for the Asian Cup? 1588 01:20:57,747 --> 01:20:57,987 Speaker 19: Yeah? 1589 01:20:58,107 --> 01:21:00,867 Speaker 21: Yeah, for the Matillda's games. Yes. The key for tournaments 1590 01:21:00,867 --> 01:21:03,107 Speaker 21: like this is and you guys experience with the World 1591 01:21:03,187 --> 01:21:05,587 Speaker 21: Cup is that, Okay, if your home nation's not playing, 1592 01:21:05,587 --> 01:21:06,667 Speaker 21: what are you going to do about it? The event 1593 01:21:06,747 --> 01:21:09,027 Speaker 21: around that And if we can get crowds of ten 1594 01:21:09,027 --> 01:21:11,747 Speaker 21: to fifteen thousand at the other games, that's a great result, 1595 01:21:11,747 --> 01:21:15,067 Speaker 21: and I think we will so there'll be enough interest there. 1596 01:21:15,507 --> 01:21:18,747 Speaker 21: But yeah, it's good now like since that World Cup, 1597 01:21:18,787 --> 01:21:23,027 Speaker 21: and iway was women's football is just football, Like it's 1598 01:21:23,067 --> 01:21:26,147 Speaker 21: just interesting to watch football, so I'll watch it. And 1599 01:21:26,187 --> 01:21:29,307 Speaker 21: I think that's broken down a bit as well in 1600 01:21:29,667 --> 01:21:32,467 Speaker 21: a wider sense with people who traditionally would only watch 1601 01:21:32,467 --> 01:21:35,627 Speaker 21: men's football and now they watch women's football because it's football, 1602 01:21:35,667 --> 01:21:38,547 Speaker 21: If that all makes sense, and hopefully that continues for 1603 01:21:38,667 --> 01:21:39,427 Speaker 21: this Asian Cup. 1604 01:21:39,867 --> 01:21:42,147 Speaker 3: Yep. Absolutely, Look we'll be watching over here as well, 1605 01:21:42,147 --> 01:21:45,387 Speaker 3: and I'm seeing how our Australia go as we always do. 1606 01:21:45,467 --> 01:21:47,107 Speaker 3: Good to chat to you, Adam.

It cannot, I don't 1675 01:25:19,627 --> 01:25:24,187 Speaker 3: think anyway, Wayne might disagree. It cannot replace the connection 1676 01:25:24,307 --> 01:25:28,707 Speaker 3: that a coach has with a player who they are coaching, 1677 01:25:28,787 --> 01:25:31,547 Speaker 3: but it can certainly help with a lot of the admin, 1678 01:25:32,027 --> 01:25:35,427 Speaker 3: the session planning, that sort of thing.

What what is going on here. 1811 01:31:51,627 --> 01:31:53,987 Speaker 2: I know I'm going to get him something when we 1812 01:31:54,067 --> 01:31:54,867 Speaker 2: get back on Monday. 1813 01:31:54,867 --> 01:31:57,667 Speaker 7: I reckon, it's so yeah. 1814 01:31:58,067 --> 01:32:00,027 Speaker 2: I don't know what he was thinking, Nord. I must 1815 01:32:00,067 --> 01:32:01,827 Speaker 2: have been screaming for it. I can't remember your probably 1816 01:32:01,827 --> 01:32:04,187 Speaker 2: say I was, but I know pretty thankful. I mean 1817 01:32:04,547 --> 01:32:05,307 Speaker 2: that I didn't shell it. 1818 01:32:05,387 --> 01:32:08,027 Speaker 21: To be fair, you're really expecting it. 1819 01:32:08,907 --> 01:32:10,907 Speaker 3: I guess you don't expect to pass of those situations. 1820 01:32:10,947 --> 01:32:12,387 Speaker 3: But good on you for grabbing it and taking it 1821 01:32:12,427 --> 01:32:14,787 Speaker 3: a bit closer to the post as well. You nearly 1822 01:32:14,787 --> 01:32:16,667 Speaker 3: had a fourth try too. Didn't you call back for 1823 01:32:16,667 --> 01:32:17,067 Speaker 3: a knock on? 1824 01:32:17,187 --> 01:32:17,347 Speaker 12: Did you? 1825 01:32:18,027 --> 01:32:19,267 Speaker 3: As it happened, do you think, well, I might I 1826 01:32:19,387 --> 01:32:19,747 Speaker 3: knock that on. 1827 01:32:22,827 --> 01:32:25,547 Speaker 2: I felt like I may have done the right thing. 1828 01:32:25,627 --> 01:32:28,147 Speaker 2: But I guess everyone's going to say that. But yeah, 1829 01:32:28,387 --> 01:32:30,627 Speaker 2: it was called back, so I was a little bit une. Well, 1830 01:32:30,947 --> 01:32:32,827 Speaker 2: you know, we got to got to selloud. 1831 01:32:32,907 --> 01:32:34,907 Speaker 14: So yeah. 1832 01:32:34,987 --> 01:32:37,187 Speaker 2: But so one of those gray years, isn't it. You've 1833 01:32:37,387 --> 01:32:41,227 Speaker 2: really got to be purposeful with that sort of movement. 1834 01:32:41,307 --> 01:32:41,867 Speaker 2: I guess. 1835 01:32:43,147 --> 01:32:46,027 Speaker 3: Brett Cameron. The downside to it all last night was 1836 01:32:46,027 --> 01:32:48,387 Speaker 3: seeing Brett Cameron go down and having to leave the 1837 01:32:48,467 --> 01:32:51,947 Speaker 3: field with what looks to be a reasonably serious knee injury. 1838 01:32:52,627 --> 01:32:54,747 Speaker 3: I know it's part of the game, Guys get injured, 1839 01:32:54,787 --> 01:32:57,587 Speaker 3: you know, but how tough is it to see one 1840 01:32:57,627 --> 01:32:59,947 Speaker 3: of your teammates in a situation like that. 1841 01:33:01,827 --> 01:33:06,307 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's so devastating to see him like that. I'm 1842 01:33:06,427 --> 01:33:09,947 Speaker 2: I've lived with Brett, and yeah, it's just such a 1843 01:33:10,067 --> 01:33:12,787 Speaker 2: tough tough thing to see. I mean it almost you know, 1844 01:33:12,947 --> 01:33:14,947 Speaker 2: just pulled out all the pulled out all the energy 1845 01:33:15,027 --> 01:33:19,907 Speaker 2: and Scott Henry Stadium yesterday, Like he's such an influential 1846 01:33:19,947 --> 01:33:22,907 Speaker 2: player to us, and for that to happen, I mean, 1847 01:33:22,947 --> 01:33:25,907 Speaker 2: it's just yeah, like, it's just devastating. I'm just feeling 1848 01:33:25,947 --> 01:33:28,267 Speaker 2: for him and hoping it's it's not as bad as 1849 01:33:28,867 --> 01:33:29,587 Speaker 2: as what it looks. 1850 01:33:29,627 --> 01:33:31,067 Speaker 13: So your thoughts for with. 1851 01:33:31,107 --> 01:33:34,547 Speaker 3: Him at the moment absolutely, as are all Hurricanes fans thoughts. 1852 01:33:34,667 --> 01:33:36,947 Speaker 3: He's had to come back from a couple of pretty 1853 01:33:36,987 --> 01:33:38,947 Speaker 3: serious injuries and he was in good shape, wasn't he. 1854 01:33:38,987 --> 01:33:41,147 Speaker 3: Clarke Laidlaw talked last night, your coach, about how he 1855 01:33:41,307 --> 01:33:44,027 Speaker 3: was had a great preseason running the team around, looking 1856 01:33:44,067 --> 01:33:46,107 Speaker 3: forward to it. I mean, I guess, I mean, you 1857 01:33:46,147 --> 01:33:47,587 Speaker 3: don't want it to happen to anybody, do you? But 1858 01:33:47,747 --> 01:33:49,787 Speaker 3: but it's just such bad luck for a guy who's 1859 01:33:49,787 --> 01:33:51,947 Speaker 3: already had a decent slice of bad luck. 1860 01:33:53,267 --> 01:33:53,907 Speaker 7: Yeah exactly. 1861 01:33:53,987 --> 01:33:58,707 Speaker 2: I mean already came back from his acl you know, 1862 01:33:58,747 --> 01:34:00,787 Speaker 2: a couple of years ago and in record time. And 1863 01:34:01,147 --> 01:34:04,747 Speaker 2: that's a credit for Brett. Like his mindset is, you know, 1864 01:34:04,827 --> 01:34:07,227 Speaker 2: one of the best I've seen. So you know what 1865 01:34:07,307 --> 01:34:09,187 Speaker 2: he was throwing them, it's it's devastating, but I know 1866 01:34:09,267 --> 01:34:12,307 Speaker 2: he's gonna get back on the horse and he'll be 1867 01:34:12,347 --> 01:34:15,227 Speaker 2: back in no time better than either. So you know, 1868 01:34:15,387 --> 01:34:17,907 Speaker 2: just really really you know, thinking of them at the 1869 01:34:17,987 --> 01:34:21,387 Speaker 2: moment and yeah, like I said, hope it's not as 1870 01:34:21,427 --> 01:34:21,867 Speaker 2: bad as. 1871 01:34:22,267 --> 01:34:24,827 Speaker 3: Is what it looked, well said. Well said he had 1872 01:34:24,867 --> 01:34:27,387 Speaker 3: a strong lead by halftime. Was there a point of 1873 01:34:27,427 --> 01:34:29,347 Speaker 3: which you think you thought, ok, we've got control of 1874 01:34:29,387 --> 01:34:29,707 Speaker 3: this game. 1875 01:34:32,747 --> 01:34:34,147 Speaker 2: No, I don't think so. I don't think you can 1876 01:34:34,227 --> 01:34:37,067 Speaker 2: think like they're in any any game. Here is it's 1877 01:34:37,507 --> 01:34:41,267 Speaker 2: such a fierce competition at the moment, and you know 1878 01:34:41,387 --> 01:34:43,707 Speaker 2: that they're one of those teams that once they get 1879 01:34:43,707 --> 01:34:46,747 Speaker 2: the tails up, they really come at you. And you know, 1880 01:34:46,827 --> 01:34:49,027 Speaker 2: really we we had to fight hard, and that's second 1881 01:34:49,067 --> 01:34:52,427 Speaker 2: half and just to keep the pressure on and you know, 1882 01:34:52,467 --> 01:34:55,707 Speaker 2: we have to keep accumulating points to to get into 1883 01:34:55,747 --> 01:34:59,027 Speaker 2: a healthy sort of lead, and like, yeah, like I 1884 01:34:59,067 --> 01:35:00,867 Speaker 2: was saying, like we've we had to work really hard 1885 01:35:00,947 --> 01:35:04,427 Speaker 2: last night, and yeah it's recruded some one. They're at 1886 01:35:04,427 --> 01:35:06,027 Speaker 2: their top qualaby team. 1887 01:35:06,947 --> 01:35:08,747 Speaker 3: You're back with the Hurricanes now, of course, Josh, you 1888 01:35:08,787 --> 01:35:12,427 Speaker 3: had a season in France with Montpellier. Back into Super Rugby. Now, 1889 01:35:12,627 --> 01:35:14,827 Speaker 3: what are the biggest things you bring back having you know, 1890 01:35:14,947 --> 01:35:17,427 Speaker 3: having had a season playing up in the Northern Hemisphere. 1891 01:35:19,507 --> 01:35:23,667 Speaker 2: I think it's it's helped me grow my game as 1892 01:35:23,667 --> 01:35:25,987 Speaker 2: a player and as a man. I mean, I guess 1893 01:35:26,027 --> 01:35:28,027 Speaker 2: I see the game a little bit differently now being 1894 01:35:28,427 --> 01:35:31,827 Speaker 2: in a Northern Hemisphere where you know, they might prioritize 1895 01:35:31,867 --> 01:35:34,667 Speaker 2: cacking a lot more and so that sort of space 1896 01:35:34,707 --> 01:35:37,387 Speaker 2: I guess may may help in certain games or against 1897 01:35:37,387 --> 01:35:37,947 Speaker 2: certain teams. 1898 01:35:38,027 --> 01:35:40,067 Speaker 7: So but yeah, a lot. 1899 01:35:40,187 --> 01:35:42,427 Speaker 2: It's just getting a different perspective of of how to 1900 01:35:42,427 --> 01:35:45,307 Speaker 2: play rugby. I mean, we're always looking to get better 1901 01:35:45,387 --> 01:35:50,867 Speaker 2: and improve our games. So yeah, yeah, I hope I 1902 01:35:51,027 --> 01:35:55,227 Speaker 2: improved and yeah, I really enjoyed my time time up there. 1903 01:35:55,747 --> 01:35:58,147 Speaker 3: Well, the first piece of evidence is pretty good last night, 1904 01:35:58,227 --> 01:36:00,147 Speaker 3: so I think we can we can safely assume that 1905 01:36:00,387 --> 01:36:02,587 Speaker 3: how different was the was the culture around the team, 1906 01:36:02,707 --> 01:36:05,427 Speaker 3: the coaching structure was it was it quite different from 1907 01:36:05,947 --> 01:36:08,067 Speaker 3: being in a in a super rugby team or not? 1908 01:36:09,867 --> 01:36:12,907 Speaker 2: Uh not really, Like the weeks are set up pretty 1909 01:36:13,227 --> 01:36:18,867 Speaker 2: pretty similar and there's just probably you're not much not 1910 01:36:18,987 --> 01:36:22,787 Speaker 2: much difference to to be fair, it's just obviously the games, 1911 01:36:22,867 --> 01:36:24,947 Speaker 2: the prime time games are nine pm at nights, so 1912 01:36:25,307 --> 01:36:28,227 Speaker 2: getting used to a long day is was difficult at first. 1913 01:36:29,027 --> 01:36:31,707 Speaker 2: But yeah, it was a quite interesting one you played. 1914 01:36:31,787 --> 01:36:33,227 Speaker 3: But a fall back when you're over there are I know, 1915 01:36:33,307 --> 01:36:35,067 Speaker 3: and I know you've you've played full back back here 1916 01:36:35,107 --> 01:36:36,467 Speaker 3: as well. Do you do you feel as though it's 1917 01:36:36,467 --> 01:36:38,107 Speaker 3: a you know, you're a genuine option you went to 1918 01:36:38,147 --> 01:36:40,027 Speaker 3: fall back last night of course when the back line 1919 01:36:40,067 --> 01:36:42,627 Speaker 3: reshuffle happened. Do you feel as though you know you're 1920 01:36:42,787 --> 01:36:44,907 Speaker 3: you're willing and able to play in any of those 1921 01:36:44,947 --> 01:36:46,347 Speaker 3: back three positions if required? 1922 01:36:47,747 --> 01:36:49,587 Speaker 2: Yeah, of course, you know, whatever it's best for the team. 1923 01:36:49,747 --> 01:36:52,827 Speaker 2: I'm happy to put my hand up and do. Yeah, 1924 01:36:52,867 --> 01:36:55,307 Speaker 2: like you saying, like when I first started the Hurricanes, 1925 01:36:55,307 --> 01:36:59,147 Speaker 2: I was I was at fifteen, so I'm pretty fairly 1926 01:36:59,187 --> 01:37:01,067 Speaker 2: lucky now that the way the game is going. It's 1927 01:37:01,627 --> 01:37:04,027 Speaker 2: the positions are fairly similar and that outside back area, 1928 01:37:04,147 --> 01:37:08,587 Speaker 2: So yeah, what whatever's best for the team, steppyd to do. 1929 01:37:08,787 --> 01:37:11,667 Speaker 3: You up to fee next week. You're packing plenty of 1930 01:37:11,747 --> 01:37:14,347 Speaker 3: ice for a trip up to Loudtoka. 1931 01:37:15,827 --> 01:37:19,947 Speaker 2: Hopefully hopefully make the team to travel up there. And yeah, 1932 01:37:19,947 --> 01:37:22,747 Speaker 2: it looks pretty hot last week watching Wane to play them, 1933 01:37:22,787 --> 01:37:26,427 Speaker 2: so yeah, so it will be an interesting one. 1934 01:37:27,107 --> 01:37:29,347 Speaker 3: Good man, Josh, Hey, well, congratulations on last night.

Can't do better than that. Thanks for 1937 01:37:34,627 --> 01:37:36,067 Speaker 3: taking the time for a chat this afternoon. 1938 01:37:37,187 --> 01:37:38,147 Speaker 2: Cheers, thank you very much for that. 1939 01:37:38,627 --> 01:37:40,867 Speaker 3: No, thank you, Josh, Thank you mate. Cheers Josh. We'll 1940 01:37:40,947 --> 01:37:43,347 Speaker 3: be there from the Hurricanes hat trick last night. Good 1941 01:37:43,347 --> 01:37:46,027 Speaker 3: all round performance. G look good out there that back three. 1942 01:37:47,707 --> 01:37:49,747 Speaker 3: You know when Ruben Love comes back depending on where 1943 01:37:49,787 --> 01:37:53,667 Speaker 3: he's slots and where Jeordie is. The two wingers Josh 1944 01:37:53,747 --> 01:37:58,507 Speaker 3: Moreby and fair hair for the younger Norful, they just 1945 01:37:58,547 --> 01:38:02,747 Speaker 3: look great, really really good. Brett Cameron. Obviously that's a 1946 01:38:02,827 --> 01:38:05,267 Speaker 3: big blow for the Hurricanes, but you know on first evidence, 1947 01:38:05,307 --> 01:38:08,587 Speaker 3: and yes, they're a tougher games to come then a 1948 01:38:08,667 --> 01:38:11,027 Speaker 3: game against more Onna Pacifica who had that really tough 1949 01:38:11,107 --> 01:38:13,187 Speaker 3: trip up to Fiji. They won up there, ton of 1950 01:38:13,267 --> 01:38:15,427 Speaker 3: umung of the coach made a lot of changes in 1951 01:38:15,587 --> 01:38:17,747 Speaker 3: his starting fifteen and his match day twenty three for 1952 01:38:17,907 --> 01:38:21,627 Speaker 3: last night, and you know, I guess the Hurricanes would 1953 01:38:21,627 --> 01:38:25,427 Speaker 3: always have been favored coming in fresh But yeah, we 1954 01:38:25,507 --> 01:38:26,627 Speaker 3: can do his play what's in front of you, and 1955 01:38:26,667 --> 01:38:29,747 Speaker 3: I thought they, you know, for good periods of last night, 1956 01:38:30,067 --> 01:38:32,187 Speaker 3: played very very well. When you get fifty two points, 1957 01:38:32,187 --> 01:38:34,467 Speaker 3: score eight tries, get your bonus point, I guess you 1958 01:38:34,507 --> 01:38:36,027 Speaker 3: can't ask for too much more in terms of what 1959 01:38:36,107 --> 01:38:39,427 Speaker 3: happens on the scoreboard. There will be obviously stuff to 1960 01:38:40,907 --> 01:38:43,787 Speaker 3: pick over for the coaching staff, but yeah, the win 1961 01:38:44,067 --> 01:38:46,987 Speaker 3: is the thing for the Hurricanes two twenty two. If 1962 01:38:47,027 --> 01:38:48,667 Speaker 3: you were there last night, I want to pass comments 1963 01:38:48,707 --> 01:38:50,747 Speaker 3: on the game saw on television, anything that stood out 1964 01:38:50,747 --> 01:38:55,227 Speaker 3: to you. I thought Warner Durns was well. First of all, 1965 01:38:55,267 --> 01:38:58,667 Speaker 3: he's massive, he is a massive human being. But I 1966 01:38:58,707 --> 01:39:00,507 Speaker 3: thought he had a good game. Apart from the first 1967 01:39:00,547 --> 01:39:03,067 Speaker 3: two lineouts when he knocked them both on, I don't 1968 01:39:03,107 --> 01:39:04,907 Speaker 3: think both were his fold and most of the throws 1969 01:39:04,907 --> 01:39:08,507 Speaker 3: from a Safai Moor were pinpoint. But Warner Turns has 1970 01:39:08,547 --> 01:39:10,147 Speaker 3: gone up there and knocked both of the first two 1971 01:39:10,187 --> 01:39:12,667 Speaker 3: lineout takes his attempt and he's knocked them on. He 1972 01:39:12,747 --> 01:39:15,427 Speaker 3: must wonder, he must be wondering if he's if the 1973 01:39:15,547 --> 01:39:17,427 Speaker 3: Hurricanes are the right team for him after all. But 1974 01:39:17,507 --> 01:39:19,587 Speaker 3: after that, man, he was terrific, played the high eighty 1975 01:39:19,627 --> 01:39:22,587 Speaker 3: minutes and really stood out in the in set piece 1976 01:39:22,787 --> 01:39:25,707 Speaker 3: and the type and in the loose as well. Two 1977 01:39:25,787 --> 01:39:27,867 Speaker 3: twenty three back in a second News talks ab. 1978 01:39:28,347 --> 01:39:31,587 Speaker 1: If it matters in sport, it matters here we can 1979 01:39:31,707 --> 01:39:36,147 Speaker 1: sport with Jason Paine and GJ.

Josh 1982 01:39:40,347 --> 01:39:43,387 Speaker 3: Morby the Stag that got Away. Of course he started 1983 01:39:43,427 --> 01:39:46,587 Speaker 3: his provincial career in Southland, didn't he, Josh Morby at 1984 01:39:46,587 --> 01:39:49,027 Speaker 3: about three seasons down there, and then went all the 1985 01:39:49,067 --> 01:39:51,107 Speaker 3: way to Northland, all the way to the other end 1986 01:39:51,147 --> 01:39:54,147 Speaker 3: of the country to play as provincial rugby after that 1987 01:39:54,467 --> 01:39:56,587 Speaker 3: Hurricanes of course, but yeah, maybe you could call him 1988 01:39:56,907 --> 01:39:58,787 Speaker 3: the Stag that got away. Hello, Tim. 1989 01:40:00,147 --> 01:40:04,467 Speaker 7: He actually comes from Portorrow, Hunger in Wycott and the 1990 01:40:04,587 --> 01:40:05,147 Speaker 7: King Country. 1991 01:40:05,587 --> 01:40:07,867 Speaker 3: That's right, So how did he end up there in Southland? 1992 01:40:07,947 --> 01:40:11,107 Speaker 3: Did they just sort of I don't know, some bluff 1993 01:40:11,107 --> 01:40:12,467 Speaker 3: oysters in front of them or something, I don't know. 1994 01:40:13,307 --> 01:40:15,067 Speaker 7: Well, yeah, he would not want to live down there 1995 01:40:15,107 --> 01:40:21,987 Speaker 7: with those bluff Just on observation. I thought the Hurricanes 1996 01:40:22,027 --> 01:40:25,067 Speaker 7: were fantastic last night. We've known for a while that, 1997 01:40:25,867 --> 01:40:28,507 Speaker 7: ever since the early two thousands, that they've had the 1998 01:40:28,587 --> 01:40:31,347 Speaker 7: capability to be the best in Super rugby. But I 1999 01:40:31,427 --> 01:40:33,747 Speaker 7: honestly think this year is they can get it together mate, 2000 01:40:34,587 --> 01:40:38,827 Speaker 7: the serious title contenders. They've definitely got the back line. 2001 01:40:39,867 --> 01:40:42,187 Speaker 7: It's just a manner of everyone's staying fit. They've got 2002 01:40:42,227 --> 01:40:45,427 Speaker 7: what They've got three All Black props in their team. 2003 01:40:46,067 --> 01:40:50,587 Speaker 7: You've got Tyree Lomax, You've got Puzzily Dussi and Tavita 2004 01:40:50,667 --> 01:40:53,787 Speaker 7: mafi Leo who was on that All Blacks tour last year. 2005 01:40:53,827 --> 01:40:55,867 Speaker 7: And then you've got us a far more coming back. 2006 01:40:56,307 --> 01:40:59,667 Speaker 7: You've got the best half back in the world, Ruben Love, 2007 01:40:59,667 --> 01:41:01,787 Speaker 7: who's probably going to start this year at first five. 2008 01:41:01,907 --> 01:41:05,307 Speaker 7: You've heard it first for the All Blacks, so they've 2009 01:41:05,427 --> 01:41:07,747 Speaker 7: definitely got the cape ability met I think it's out 2010 01:41:07,787 --> 01:41:10,947 Speaker 7: of them. Probably the Chiefs again in the Crusaders. The 2011 01:41:11,027 --> 01:41:13,787 Speaker 7: Blues are probably there or thereabouts. I'm hoping that the 2012 01:41:13,867 --> 01:41:16,787 Speaker 7: Hlanders can kind of hang on because you know, when 2013 01:41:16,867 --> 01:41:19,147 Speaker 7: push comes to shove, when they start playing more the 2014 01:41:19,467 --> 01:41:22,947 Speaker 7: Kiwi teams away from home, that's my that's probably where 2015 01:41:22,947 --> 01:41:23,827 Speaker 7: they're going to get undone. 2016 01:41:25,187 --> 01:41:27,427 Speaker 3: You're getting me excited to him, You're getting me excited 2017 01:41:27,467 --> 01:41:30,067 Speaker 3: about my Hurricanes. I've been looking at this roster as 2018 01:41:30,107 --> 01:41:33,547 Speaker 3: well and thinking, yeah, a lot of the bases are covered. 2019 01:41:33,547 --> 01:41:35,507 Speaker 3: I think having Warner Durn's there in the second row. 2020 01:41:35,547 --> 01:41:37,467 Speaker 3: I'm not sure what you made of him last night, 2021 01:41:37,507 --> 01:41:39,867 Speaker 3: but he's a big unit and you know, often it's 2022 01:41:39,947 --> 01:41:42,507 Speaker 3: you know, you're right. The front row is solid, the 2023 01:41:42,627 --> 01:41:45,307 Speaker 3: Lusies have always been good. Maybe the second row is 2024 01:41:45,307 --> 01:41:47,307 Speaker 3: an area where there's perhaps been a bit of strengthen 2025 01:41:47,347 --> 01:41:49,947 Speaker 3: he needed, and having him there, who knows, he might 2026 01:41:50,027 --> 01:41:51,267 Speaker 3: be one of the missing pieces too. 2027 01:41:51,987 --> 01:41:55,547 Speaker 7: Well, he's if he wasn't eligible, well, if he was 2028 01:41:55,587 --> 01:41:57,587 Speaker 7: eligible to be an about he would be an all blast, 2029 01:41:57,827 --> 01:41:59,827 Speaker 7: that's how good of a player he is. And then 2030 01:41:59,867 --> 01:42:01,987 Speaker 7: you've got players that weren't there last night, the deep 2031 01:42:02,187 --> 01:42:05,147 Speaker 7: see yep, I mean he's awesome. And then you've got 2032 01:42:05,547 --> 01:42:07,987 Speaker 7: you've pretty much got all the flankers future, all black 2033 01:42:08,027 --> 01:42:10,667 Speaker 7: flankers in that team. So as the Hurricanes did do 2034 01:42:10,787 --> 01:42:13,187 Speaker 7: it this year, you've got to ask yourself, when are they. 2035 01:42:13,147 --> 01:42:13,587 Speaker 18: Going to do it? 2036 01:42:15,027 --> 01:42:17,187 Speaker 3: Tim, I'm gonna recall I'm going to record this call 2037 01:42:17,467 --> 01:42:19,907 Speaker 3: and I'm going to play it back often across the season. 2038 01:42:20,187 --> 01:42:21,747 Speaker 3: And I hope that you and I can chat a 2039 01:42:21,827 --> 01:42:22,667 Speaker 3: lot more as well. 2040 01:42:22,747 --> 01:42:22,987 Speaker 10: Mate. 2041 01:42:23,267 --> 01:42:25,187 Speaker 3: Good to hear from you out and about watching some 2042 01:42:25,307 --> 01:42:27,107 Speaker 3: sport by the sounds of a good to chat to 2043 01:42:27,147 --> 01:42:29,667 Speaker 3: your mate. I appreciate you calling it. I'm got to 2044 01:42:29,707 --> 01:42:34,187 Speaker 3: mention the Hurricanes' debut, says Richie of Alessi polical everywhere, 2045 01:42:34,227 --> 01:42:38,907 Speaker 3: big body, versatile, had such an impact on tied Mwana players, 2046 01:42:39,027 --> 01:42:41,027 Speaker 3: so hard to put down. Yeah, he was good, polical 2047 01:42:41,587 --> 01:42:44,747 Speaker 3: and Tim's right. And I come from a position of 2048 01:42:44,867 --> 01:42:49,387 Speaker 3: bias obviously here, being a Hurricanes fan through and through. 2049 01:42:49,427 --> 01:42:52,227 Speaker 3: I've supported this team for thirty years. But I look 2050 01:42:52,267 --> 01:42:55,147 Speaker 3: at it and I think it is a very good 2051 01:42:55,227 --> 01:42:59,267 Speaker 3: team with a lot of cover and a lot of positions. 2052 01:42:59,347 --> 01:43:03,067 Speaker 3: The only issue really is first five eight, especially with 2053 01:43:03,267 --> 01:43:06,707 Speaker 3: Brett Cameron going down last night. Ruben Loves still a 2054 01:43:06,827 --> 01:43:11,427 Speaker 3: little way away from coming back. Harry Godfrey out for 2055 01:43:11,507 --> 01:43:17,587 Speaker 3: the season. I wonder who's going to play there next week. 2056 01:43:18,827 --> 01:43:23,187 Speaker 3: Callum Harkin came into first five last night when Cameron 2057 01:43:23,227 --> 01:43:26,787 Speaker 3: went off. Lucas cash Moore is also in the Hurricane squad, 2058 01:43:26,827 --> 01:43:31,067 Speaker 3: a genuine first five. So maybe for the next three weeks, 2059 01:43:31,107 --> 01:43:32,987 Speaker 3: which are a bit friendlier, there aren't There aren't too 2060 01:43:32,987 --> 01:43:36,187 Speaker 3: many derbies. In fact, there aren't any until well they've 2061 01:43:36,187 --> 01:43:38,067 Speaker 3: got the DRW next, then the Warratas, then the Force. 2062 01:43:38,107 --> 01:43:39,987 Speaker 3: I'm not saying those are easy games. Warrators are playing 2063 01:43:40,027 --> 01:43:45,027 Speaker 3: well two from two, but yeah, maybe you make do 2064 01:43:45,267 --> 01:43:51,267 Speaker 3: until Ruben Love comes back.

Who's our number eight? 2069 01:44:00,547 --> 01:44:02,067 Speaker 24: It's not Bradonen or that's for sure? 2070 01:44:02,147 --> 01:44:06,427 Speaker 3: What's a same Braden?

Man, 2085 01:44:39,627 --> 01:44:41,667 Speaker 3: this this body of work of the Hurricane is going 2086 01:44:41,707 --> 01:44:43,467 Speaker 3: to win Super Rugby. It's going to take up all 2087 01:44:43,507 --> 01:44:48,627 Speaker 3: of my audio space here. Great, absolutely brilliant. Love this 2088 01:44:49,147 --> 01:44:52,067 Speaker 3: want the Clark laidlaw the head coaches. Overall thoughts after 2089 01:44:52,147 --> 01:44:52,667 Speaker 3: last night. 2090 01:44:52,987 --> 01:44:55,227 Speaker 25: You happy him in fust game that was going to 2091 01:44:55,267 --> 01:44:57,307 Speaker 25: be a little bit of rush. You know some skill 2092 01:44:57,347 --> 01:44:59,187 Speaker 25: set stuff that you know we can take it up 2093 01:44:59,187 --> 01:45:00,707 Speaker 25: and give him a rhythm to a game, I guess. 2094 01:45:00,787 --> 01:45:04,707 Speaker 25: But all in all against you know, tougher position, you 2095 01:45:04,747 --> 01:45:07,147 Speaker 25: see a physical for us to to keep the ball 2096 01:45:07,227 --> 01:45:11,067 Speaker 25: moving and keep it fast for long periods was encouraging. 2097 01:45:11,587 --> 01:45:14,147 Speaker 25: I thought, you know, from a lineup perspective, certainly defensive 2098 01:45:14,147 --> 01:45:16,267 Speaker 25: line out. We started really getting on top of the 2099 01:45:16,307 --> 01:45:20,507 Speaker 25: second half. Scum was on top you know, so you 2100 01:45:20,587 --> 01:45:23,067 Speaker 25: know it was realistic around all the changes they made, 2101 01:45:23,107 --> 01:45:26,227 Speaker 25: et cetera. But yeah, all in all, happy with with the. 2102 01:45:26,267 --> 01:45:28,987 Speaker 3: Start and five of the tries. Shade between his two 2103 01:45:29,107 --> 01:45:31,227 Speaker 3: wingers Josh Morby, who we just heard from of course, 2104 01:45:31,267 --> 01:45:33,827 Speaker 3: and Thinging Anglin A four. So what did Clarke, Gli 2105 01:45:34,027 --> 01:45:37,667 Speaker 3: or Mike of the performance of his numbers eleven and fourteen? 2106 01:45:37,867 --> 01:45:41,227 Speaker 25: Yeah, I mean the different under like Josh's his all 2107 01:45:41,307 --> 01:45:44,387 Speaker 25: action around the field. He pops up in little little 2108 01:45:44,427 --> 01:45:47,587 Speaker 25: spaces when there's line breaks. He obviously shifted the fool 2109 01:45:47,627 --> 01:45:50,747 Speaker 25: back and and still played well. So he's he's a 2110 01:45:50,787 --> 01:45:53,747 Speaker 25: real you know that flexibility to have somebody that can 2111 01:45:53,787 --> 01:45:55,667 Speaker 25: just jump to the back straight away is helpful. 2112 01:45:57,147 --> 01:45:59,187 Speaker 19: And yeah, he's obviously a power winner. 2113 01:46:00,587 --> 01:46:04,387 Speaker 25: He breaks tackles you know often, and he's I think 2114 01:46:04,427 --> 01:46:07,787 Speaker 25: the part of maybe people under ask me with Fahey 2115 01:46:07,867 --> 01:46:10,467 Speaker 25: will be his defensive game cg and Ham. I've done 2116 01:46:10,467 --> 01:46:14,107 Speaker 25: an amazing job of becoming a really strong defender in fifteen, 2117 01:46:14,307 --> 01:46:17,467 Speaker 25: So he doesn't look like it's his second season, only 2118 01:46:17,547 --> 01:46:17,747 Speaker 25: does it. 2119 01:46:18,907 --> 01:46:21,107 Speaker 3: Theater Pretto, Well, yeah, that's Clark laid law after the 2120 01:46:21,147 --> 01:46:23,947 Speaker 3: game last night. So satisfaction all round. Raally apart from 2121 01:46:23,987 --> 01:46:26,267 Speaker 3: the injury, of course, to Brett Cameron, a couple of 2122 01:46:26,307 --> 01:46:28,427 Speaker 3: texts through here, way too early in the season to 2123 01:46:28,467 --> 01:46:30,987 Speaker 3: make assumptions as to who'll be there at the top yet. 2124 01:46:31,027 --> 01:46:33,187 Speaker 3: Yeah day, But we can dream, can't we? We can 2125 01:46:33,307 --> 01:46:37,627 Speaker 3: dream ten years after our one and only Super Rugby Championship. 2126 01:46:37,667 --> 01:46:40,747 Speaker 3: We can dream, can't we? Hurricanes fans very different team 2127 01:46:40,827 --> 01:46:42,427 Speaker 3: says this text from the one that beat the drawer. 2128 01:46:42,507 --> 01:46:44,667 Speaker 3: Talk them up, go on, I'm looking forward to the crash. 2129 01:46:45,547 --> 01:46:48,587 Speaker 3: I'm not looking forward to the crash twenty seven away 2130 01:46:48,587 --> 01:46:51,947 Speaker 3: from three. When we come back AI in sport, how 2131 01:46:52,147 --> 01:46:54,267 Speaker 3: is it best utilized, Wayne Goldsmith? 2132 01:46:54,267 --> 01:46:57,987 Speaker 1: When we come back from grassroots to the Grandstad Weekend 2133 01:46:58,067 --> 01:47:01,747 Speaker 1: Sport with Jason Clive and GJ gard No Homes, New 2134 01:47:01,867 --> 01:47:04,267 Speaker 1: Zealand's most trusted home builder news talks. 2135 01:47:04,307 --> 01:47:07,227 Speaker 3: That'd be two thirty six. First there was sport, then 2136 01:47:07,347 --> 01:47:11,387 Speaker 3: came competitive sport, That was followed by professional sport. More 2137 01:47:11,427 --> 01:47:15,907 Speaker 3: recently we've seen an explosion in E sport, introducing the 2138 01:47:15,987 --> 01:47:19,787 Speaker 3: latest evolution of sport currently sweeping the globe A sport well. 2139 01:47:19,867 --> 01:47:24,947 Speaker 3: To be more accurate, AI sport. AI Artificial intelligence has 2140 01:47:25,067 --> 01:47:28,947 Speaker 3: risen as an unstoppable, irresistible wave of smart technology around 2141 01:47:28,987 --> 01:47:31,587 Speaker 3: the world. Its impact on the lives of people everywhere 2142 01:47:31,667 --> 01:47:34,987 Speaker 3: cannot be overstated. A revolution, and it's changing the way 2143 01:47:35,107 --> 01:47:39,707 Speaker 3: we think about, talk about, and coach sport. International sports 2144 01:47:39,787 --> 01:47:42,987 Speaker 3: coaching expert Wayne Goldsmith joins us, You'll note that I've 2145 01:47:43,067 --> 01:47:46,267 Speaker 3: used your intro that I saw on a LinkedIn post 2146 01:47:46,387 --> 01:47:48,307 Speaker 3: during the week as my intro. How are you, Wyane? 2147 01:47:48,747 --> 01:47:50,827 Speaker 3: I'm going, well, I'm just hoping that by the end 2148 01:47:50,867 --> 01:47:54,187 Speaker 3: of this interview people don't think AI is Australian imbecile, 2149 01:47:54,347 --> 01:47:58,507 Speaker 3: because I hopeing they're going to be inspired a little bit, 2150 01:47:58,747 --> 01:48:00,987 Speaker 3: maybe Australian inspire. 2151 01:48:01,147 --> 01:48:04,267 Speaker 12: Hopefully I can inspire them to realize that it is 2152 01:48:04,427 --> 01:48:08,227 Speaker 12: indeed an incredible breakthrough in sport if you can just 2153 01:48:08,547 --> 01:48:10,507 Speaker 12: spend a bit of time figuring out how to use it. 2154 01:48:10,747 --> 01:48:13,387 Speaker 3: All right, well, let's try and give our listeners a 2155 01:48:13,427 --> 01:48:16,427 Speaker 3: bit of guidance. AI in sport. Lots of hype around 2156 01:48:16,507 --> 01:48:19,507 Speaker 3: about it. It's, as you've said, you know, prevalent in 2157 01:48:19,667 --> 01:48:23,027 Speaker 3: everyday life now, so it stands to reason that people 2158 01:48:23,107 --> 01:48:25,347 Speaker 3: involved in sport are going to use it as well. 2159 01:48:25,667 --> 01:48:27,987 Speaker 3: Take us through a couple of the early stages perhaps 2160 01:48:28,067 --> 01:48:31,427 Speaker 3: of introducing AI into sport. 2161 01:48:33,107 --> 01:48:36,547 Speaker 12: Well, it's something that I've got really invested in the 2162 01:48:36,787 --> 01:48:40,387 Speaker 12: last particularly the last year. I think, even though I've 2163 01:48:40,387 --> 01:48:43,147 Speaker 12: been in it for a long time, Pinty, I think 2164 01:48:43,627 --> 01:48:49,227 Speaker 12: my own rate of learning has accelerated at a speed 2165 01:48:49,307 --> 01:48:52,067 Speaker 12: that even though I can't comprehend, I honestly walk out 2166 01:48:52,067 --> 01:48:54,027 Speaker 12: of my mind for some days and I say to 2167 01:48:54,107 --> 01:48:56,027 Speaker 12: my wife, I said, I can't believe what I'm doing. 2168 01:48:56,227 --> 01:48:59,947 Speaker 12: I really cannot believe the way that I'm working and 2169 01:49:00,027 --> 01:49:03,227 Speaker 12: how it's improved my efficiency. Because what most people do 2170 01:49:03,427 --> 01:49:05,827 Speaker 12: is they go, I'll give chat GBT a go, I 2171 01:49:05,947 --> 01:49:08,107 Speaker 12: just a bit of a play. I've heard about this AI, 2172 01:49:08,107 --> 01:49:09,907 Speaker 12: I think. And they go on a chat and I'll 2173 01:49:09,907 --> 01:49:14,387 Speaker 12: ask a question like what's the best passing drill to 2174 01:49:14,507 --> 01:49:17,867 Speaker 12: do in netball? And they'll get a few answers and 2175 01:49:17,907 --> 01:49:19,747 Speaker 12: they go, oh, that's not very good. I could get 2176 01:49:19,787 --> 01:49:20,627 Speaker 12: that from Google. 2177 01:49:21,187 --> 01:49:25,387 Speaker 3: It's because they asked a Google question. They've got to 2178 01:49:25,427 --> 01:49:27,787 Speaker 3: think of AI, particularly if you're a coach, for example, 2179 01:49:28,507 --> 01:49:31,027 Speaker 3: you think of it in terms of it's an assistant coach. 2180 01:49:31,107 --> 01:49:33,907 Speaker 12: So if you hire an assistant coach and say, can 2181 01:49:33,987 --> 01:49:36,107 Speaker 12: you go run a few passing drills with those kids 2182 01:49:36,147 --> 01:49:38,707 Speaker 12: on the other side. You don't know what you're going 2183 01:49:38,787 --> 01:49:41,267 Speaker 12: to get. You could get anything, good drills, bad drills 2184 01:49:41,987 --> 01:49:45,067 Speaker 12: to advance not you could get anything. But if you're 2185 01:49:45,267 --> 01:49:48,027 Speaker 12: an assistant coach, you'd say, the kids on the other 2186 01:49:48,107 --> 01:49:50,427 Speaker 12: side of the court, there are twelve they've all been 2187 01:49:50,507 --> 01:49:53,547 Speaker 12: in the team for about two years. They're really good 2188 01:49:53,587 --> 01:49:56,067 Speaker 12: at passing this way, but they're not passing that way. 2189 01:49:56,667 --> 01:49:58,987 Speaker 12: Go and do some drills with them. Then the coach 2190 01:49:59,067 --> 01:50:01,547 Speaker 12: that you've hired, your assistant coach, will go, Okay, a 2191 01:50:01,587 --> 01:50:05,227 Speaker 12: bit more information. I've got it, and AI is the same. 2192 01:50:05,347 --> 01:50:07,427 Speaker 12: And I think a lot of people in their early 2193 01:50:07,587 --> 01:50:09,347 Speaker 12: stages they've treated it. 2194 01:50:09,427 --> 01:50:13,587 Speaker 3: Look, it's a Google prompt or another type of search 2195 01:50:13,667 --> 01:50:16,787 Speaker 3: engine prompt, and they go, well, this night good, I 2196 01:50:16,867 --> 01:50:17,627 Speaker 3: could do better. 2197 01:50:18,307 --> 01:50:21,467 Speaker 12: But here's the trick pointy again, you don't think of 2198 01:50:21,507 --> 01:50:23,947 Speaker 12: it as a tool. Don't think about it in terms 2199 01:50:23,987 --> 01:50:27,427 Speaker 12: of Google. You go, this is my assistant coach, this 2200 01:50:27,587 --> 01:50:30,867 Speaker 12: is my assistant manager. But more time must spend training 2201 01:50:31,027 --> 01:50:33,627 Speaker 12: them to understand what it is I'm trying to do 2202 01:50:33,747 --> 01:50:36,987 Speaker 12: and who I'm coaching. The better the solutions will be 2203 01:50:37,107 --> 01:50:37,587 Speaker 12: that I get. 2204 01:50:38,707 --> 01:50:42,747 Speaker 3: So you have to train AI to be your assistant coach. 2205 01:50:42,947 --> 01:50:45,387 Speaker 3: Teach it as much as you can about like, guess 2206 01:50:45,427 --> 01:50:47,067 Speaker 3: what you're trying to do as well, Wayne. I mean, 2207 01:50:47,107 --> 01:50:49,307 Speaker 3: you can't just say, you know, teach it to be 2208 01:50:49,307 --> 01:50:52,867 Speaker 3: an assistant coach. It's teaching it to be your assistant coach, 2209 01:50:53,187 --> 01:50:53,507 Speaker 3: isn't it? 2210 01:50:54,627 --> 01:50:58,427 Speaker 12: Absolutely and with your own philosophies. So the continuation of 2211 01:50:58,547 --> 01:51:01,947 Speaker 12: the example Pointy would be at stage one, on might 2212 01:51:02,147 --> 01:51:05,147 Speaker 12: just go and write me a training session for a 2213 01:51:06,507 --> 01:51:10,547 Speaker 12: fourteen rugby team that goes for ninety minutes which focuses 2214 01:51:10,787 --> 01:51:18,067 Speaker 12: on tackle technique, breakdown and speed development. Now AI can 2215 01:51:18,147 --> 01:51:21,147 Speaker 12: do that in a blink of an AI. Now there's 2216 01:51:21,147 --> 01:51:24,747 Speaker 12: a good one. We could use that. But if I then, 2217 01:51:25,667 --> 01:51:28,907 Speaker 12: if I was to take a photo of my training book, 2218 01:51:29,107 --> 01:51:32,947 Speaker 12: my workout book, or whichever way I record my training sessions, 2219 01:51:33,347 --> 01:51:36,067 Speaker 12: and I upload that into a honesty based on my 2220 01:51:36,187 --> 01:51:39,667 Speaker 12: philosophies and my coaching and the work that I've done 2221 01:51:39,747 --> 01:51:41,787 Speaker 12: with my team over the last two or three months, 2222 01:51:42,347 --> 01:51:44,307 Speaker 12: please design a training seat and you give it the 2223 01:51:44,347 --> 01:51:47,147 Speaker 12: same instruction and it then goes Hang on, I know 2224 01:51:47,307 --> 01:51:51,067 Speaker 12: how Piney wants to coach. I understand his philosophies and 2225 01:51:51,267 --> 01:51:53,827 Speaker 12: the information that you put in determines that you get 2226 01:51:53,867 --> 01:51:57,227 Speaker 12: a better piece of information out the beauty about AI 2227 01:51:57,387 --> 01:51:59,787 Speaker 12: though it learns very very quickly. So it would come 2228 01:51:59,827 --> 01:52:02,467 Speaker 12: back to you, Boney and say, I notice that in 2229 01:52:02,587 --> 01:52:04,387 Speaker 12: your training you seem to be doing a lot of 2230 01:52:04,467 --> 01:52:07,707 Speaker 12: work on tackle technique, do a lot of work on passing. 2231 01:52:08,387 --> 01:52:12,067 Speaker 12: Have you considered looking at team passing drills which build 2232 01:52:12,147 --> 01:52:15,867 Speaker 12: on not just passing, but then integrate with defense as well. 2233 01:52:16,147 --> 01:52:18,787 Speaker 12: So it all throw some suggestions at you which you'll go, 2234 01:52:19,227 --> 01:52:20,827 Speaker 12: I haven't thought of that, and you're going to say 2235 01:52:20,867 --> 01:52:24,267 Speaker 12: yes or no, or go off in another tangent. So 2236 01:52:24,547 --> 01:52:27,067 Speaker 12: it's a learning thing. One of the things you can 2237 01:52:27,107 --> 01:52:29,627 Speaker 12: do with AI. And this has blown my mind over 2238 01:52:29,827 --> 01:52:33,467 Speaker 12: and over again, Binnie. Is that what you can quite 2239 01:52:33,507 --> 01:52:35,747 Speaker 12: often do after that you could say to AI, and 2240 01:52:35,867 --> 01:52:39,827 Speaker 12: I do this on a regular basis. I'll say, looking 2241 01:52:39,907 --> 01:52:42,907 Speaker 12: at what I just asked you AI, and looking at 2242 01:52:43,027 --> 01:52:46,787 Speaker 12: what you gave me, was there a better way, a 2243 01:52:46,947 --> 01:52:48,907 Speaker 12: smarter way, or a faster way that I could have 2244 01:52:48,987 --> 01:52:51,307 Speaker 12: asked you a question that would have got me a 2245 01:52:51,387 --> 01:52:54,707 Speaker 12: better answer quicker. And it'll say, sure, Wayne, if you 2246 01:52:54,707 --> 01:52:57,667 Speaker 12: would have asked me a question like this instead of this, 2247 01:52:57,867 --> 01:53:00,707 Speaker 12: taking ten minutes, you would have got that in two minutes. 2248 01:53:01,067 --> 01:53:06,267 Speaker 12: So you can ask AI to coach you. And it's there, 2249 01:53:06,387 --> 01:53:09,067 Speaker 12: very very good at doing that. And I mean that's 2250 01:53:09,067 --> 01:53:11,427 Speaker 12: a base level. And I say to coaches, look, it 2251 01:53:11,507 --> 01:53:13,507 Speaker 12: doesn't replace you never, You're not going to lose your job. 2252 01:53:14,627 --> 01:53:18,027 Speaker 12: Still the art of coaching, the connection with the hearts 2253 01:53:18,067 --> 01:53:21,787 Speaker 12: and minds of kids, inspiring them to believe that anything's possible. 2254 01:53:22,107 --> 01:53:24,747 Speaker 12: That's still who we are and what we do. But 2255 01:53:24,947 --> 01:53:28,827 Speaker 12: the efficiency that this provides in those really mundane jobs 2256 01:53:28,907 --> 01:53:34,667 Speaker 12: like writing reports, coming up with training sessions, coming up 2257 01:53:34,707 --> 01:53:37,187 Speaker 12: with season plans, all that it can do all of 2258 01:53:37,267 --> 01:53:40,347 Speaker 12: that for you to a standard that you would not 2259 01:53:40,627 --> 01:53:43,067 Speaker 12: believe possible. It is quite remarkable tool. 2260 01:53:43,467 --> 01:53:45,507 Speaker 3: And I think the key thing here listening to you 2261 01:53:45,907 --> 01:53:48,427 Speaker 3: is the fact that it is an assistant coach and 2262 01:53:48,507 --> 01:53:52,707 Speaker 3: assistant to you doing the time consuming stuff like training plans, 2263 01:53:52,827 --> 01:53:56,507 Speaker 3: like writing reports, perhaps like filling out spreadsheets with stats 2264 01:53:56,547 --> 01:54:00,147 Speaker 3: and things like that. But it can't Can it replace 2265 01:54:01,027 --> 01:54:07,387 Speaker 3: a relationship between a coach and athlete that's built on commitment, dedication, respect, work, trust. 2266 01:54:07,787 --> 01:54:09,147 Speaker 3: It can't do that, can it? 2267 01:54:10,307 --> 01:54:12,867 Speaker 12: Well not yet? We never know where what happens with 2268 01:54:13,467 --> 01:54:15,387 Speaker 12: robots and elon and all the things that are going 2269 01:54:15,427 --> 01:54:17,267 Speaker 12: on in that world. But look, I want to give 2270 01:54:18,027 --> 01:54:20,147 Speaker 12: the listeners a bit of an insight into how we 2271 01:54:20,307 --> 01:54:23,547 Speaker 12: use it, let's say, at the pointing in So, I 2272 01:54:23,707 --> 01:54:26,947 Speaker 12: continue to work with some elite level and pro teams 2273 01:54:27,547 --> 01:54:29,427 Speaker 12: and one of the challenges that one of my clients 2274 01:54:29,427 --> 01:54:33,827 Speaker 12: said is, we've we've got a little challenges. We've got 2275 01:54:33,947 --> 01:54:35,947 Speaker 12: a senior coach and a director of football and we 2276 01:54:36,027 --> 01:54:38,707 Speaker 12: pay them a lot of money and we would love 2277 01:54:38,787 --> 01:54:40,907 Speaker 12: them to go out and spend time with the coaches 2278 01:54:40,947 --> 01:54:43,467 Speaker 12: of the under fourteens, under sixteens, under eighteens and so on, 2279 01:54:44,107 --> 01:54:47,107 Speaker 12: but the coaches don't have the time that the senior 2280 01:54:47,187 --> 01:54:50,787 Speaker 12: coaches don't have the time. Is there a way that 2281 01:54:50,987 --> 01:54:53,067 Speaker 12: we can make all the things that's in their head 2282 01:54:53,107 --> 01:54:56,267 Speaker 12: and all their expertise, and how can we make that 2283 01:54:56,347 --> 01:54:59,107 Speaker 12: available to all of our junior coaches with the idea 2284 01:54:59,227 --> 01:55:01,827 Speaker 12: Piney being that we get a consistent style of play 2285 01:55:02,187 --> 01:55:04,027 Speaker 12: throughout our club so that when they knock on the 2286 01:55:04,067 --> 01:55:07,907 Speaker 12: door of the senior group. We called job ready. So 2287 01:55:08,107 --> 01:55:11,307 Speaker 12: we went to our our AI experts and a guy 2288 01:55:11,427 --> 01:55:13,947 Speaker 12: who works in one of the big AI companies here 2289 01:55:14,707 --> 01:55:18,187 Speaker 12: and he helped us design what we call personas. So 2290 01:55:18,347 --> 01:55:20,707 Speaker 12: what we did is we interviewed the two senior coaches, 2291 01:55:20,747 --> 01:55:23,307 Speaker 12: the two best football brains in the group, and we 2292 01:55:23,467 --> 01:55:27,267 Speaker 12: got everything down that they thought, their beliefs, their philosophies, 2293 01:55:27,307 --> 01:55:31,667 Speaker 12: their attitudes, their old training sessions, their approach to strength training, 2294 01:55:31,747 --> 01:55:34,587 Speaker 12: team work leaders, everything and we put it into this 2295 01:55:34,707 --> 01:55:37,827 Speaker 12: AI structure. We call it a persona. Now the beauty 2296 01:55:37,867 --> 01:55:40,227 Speaker 12: of this, then is the coach of the under fourteens 2297 01:55:40,307 --> 01:55:43,307 Speaker 12: can then log on and say, hey, I'm looking for 2298 01:55:44,427 --> 01:55:47,867 Speaker 12: a training session for the under fourteen girls team that 2299 01:55:47,987 --> 01:55:50,427 Speaker 12: should really focus on this and this. What do you 2300 01:55:50,507 --> 01:55:53,547 Speaker 12: think I should do? And instead of just asking the 2301 01:55:53,667 --> 01:55:59,147 Speaker 12: AI universe, they're effectively asking the two most senior and 2302 01:55:59,347 --> 01:56:02,907 Speaker 12: most brilliant coaching minds in our club. So the answer 2303 01:56:03,027 --> 01:56:06,867 Speaker 12: they get is as if they were sitting and talking 2304 01:56:06,947 --> 01:56:10,467 Speaker 12: to them in person. And so the expertise of these 2305 01:56:10,507 --> 01:56:15,107 Speaker 12: two guys that are leading the overall technical strategic development 2306 01:56:15,187 --> 01:56:18,387 Speaker 12: of the club is now getting to the people who 2307 01:56:18,467 --> 01:56:22,227 Speaker 12: can use it really effectively in the junior development pathway. 2308 01:56:22,907 --> 01:56:25,707 Speaker 12: That's how powerful this tool is is you can you 2309 01:56:25,787 --> 01:56:29,107 Speaker 12: can create these and we call them personas, But we 2310 01:56:29,227 --> 01:56:32,507 Speaker 12: can now spread this high level coaching expertise to the 2311 01:56:32,587 --> 01:56:35,587 Speaker 12: coaches who are out there at nurturing and developing younger players. 2312 01:56:35,747 --> 01:56:37,747 Speaker 12: It really is fantastic Wayane. 2313 01:56:37,787 --> 01:56:39,827 Speaker 3: Is there any danger we could come to rely on 2314 01:56:39,947 --> 01:56:40,587 Speaker 3: it too much? 2315 01:56:43,427 --> 01:56:47,187 Speaker 12: That's I think about it. But you know it's like, look, 2316 01:56:47,187 --> 01:56:48,827 Speaker 12: I'm talking to a guy the other day from Touch 2317 01:56:48,867 --> 01:56:52,947 Speaker 12: Football and he also he works for Microsoft, and we 2318 01:56:53,027 --> 01:56:55,227 Speaker 12: were just talking away and he said, we were talking 2319 01:56:55,227 --> 01:56:57,587 Speaker 12: about AI and sport things, and he said, Wayne, do 2320 01:56:57,667 --> 01:57:01,427 Speaker 12: you know that the average Microsoft user uses about five 2321 01:57:01,547 --> 01:57:04,507 Speaker 12: percent of the capability of Word and Excel. They don't 2322 01:57:04,587 --> 01:57:06,827 Speaker 12: use much of it, And he said, they use about 2323 01:57:06,867 --> 01:57:09,787 Speaker 12: ten percent of the capability of their keyboard. He said, 2324 01:57:10,387 --> 01:57:13,907 Speaker 12: so they rely on it. But the users who spend 2325 01:57:14,027 --> 01:57:17,067 Speaker 12: more time learning how to integrate it, spend a bit 2326 01:57:17,107 --> 01:57:19,667 Speaker 12: more time improving their own expertise and growing with it, 2327 01:57:20,467 --> 01:57:22,347 Speaker 12: they can go to a completely different level. 2328 01:57:22,627 --> 01:57:23,947 Speaker 19: And I said, you know what, I think, that's what. 2329 01:57:24,067 --> 01:57:26,947 Speaker 12: AI is very much for where we are now, is 2330 01:57:27,067 --> 01:57:30,387 Speaker 12: that that if you sit back and go I'm happy 2331 01:57:30,427 --> 01:57:32,667 Speaker 12: with asking it a simple question like can you give 2332 01:57:32,707 --> 01:57:36,427 Speaker 12: me a swimming training session for my fifteen year olds 2333 01:57:36,467 --> 01:57:39,627 Speaker 12: going to national championships next week? Look, Google can do that, 2334 01:57:39,787 --> 01:57:42,827 Speaker 12: gem Andi can do that, Chat can do that, Flayd 2335 01:57:42,907 --> 01:57:44,787 Speaker 12: can do that. You I have it help us. You 2336 01:57:44,827 --> 01:57:47,467 Speaker 12: could get it from a book that's not being innovative, 2337 01:57:48,227 --> 01:57:52,907 Speaker 12: but the ability to really build a relationship with the 2338 01:57:53,027 --> 01:57:56,227 Speaker 12: technology so that it really starts to under I mean, 2339 01:57:56,267 --> 01:57:58,587 Speaker 12: it's some scary stuff. I'm still not trying to take 2340 01:57:58,627 --> 01:58:02,387 Speaker 12: this bie that. The other day I asked Floyd, I 2341 01:58:02,587 --> 01:58:06,107 Speaker 12: use an AI platform called Claude, and I asked Claude 2342 01:58:06,587 --> 01:58:10,387 Speaker 12: to review some data from multiple sources. So I downloaded 2343 01:58:10,427 --> 01:58:12,307 Speaker 12: a lot of data and I put my own data in. 2344 01:58:12,587 --> 01:58:13,747 Speaker 12: But I said, can you have a look at all 2345 01:58:13,827 --> 01:58:17,067 Speaker 12: this data and drag out the four or five top 2346 01:58:17,267 --> 01:58:19,867 Speaker 12: trends that this data is seeing. And it gave me 2347 01:58:19,947 --> 01:58:21,947 Speaker 12: an answer and then asked me a few questions, and 2348 01:58:22,107 --> 01:58:24,627 Speaker 12: I said, thanks for that. I'm really flat out though 2349 01:58:24,667 --> 01:58:26,787 Speaker 12: the rest of the afternoon. So this is me putting 2350 01:58:26,827 --> 01:58:29,907 Speaker 12: in the book. I said, I'm really flat out the 2351 01:58:29,947 --> 01:58:31,427 Speaker 12: rest of the afternoon. I'll get this tomorrow. 2352 01:58:31,747 --> 01:58:34,387 Speaker 3: Floyd comes back and says, that's fine, Wayne, you're having 2353 01:58:34,427 --> 01:58:36,667 Speaker 3: a big day, go and enjoy a view with the family. 2354 01:58:36,747 --> 01:58:42,547 Speaker 12: We'll pick up on this tomorrow. Now, seriously, and you're 2355 01:58:42,587 --> 01:58:46,547 Speaker 12: starting to go, have I created a new world? It 2356 01:58:46,587 --> 01:58:49,227 Speaker 12: is this X files? What am I doing? But it's 2357 01:58:49,387 --> 01:58:52,827 Speaker 12: only repeating back to me what it's learnt from me 2358 01:58:52,987 --> 01:58:56,627 Speaker 12: by the amount of work that we do. And I 2359 01:58:56,747 --> 01:58:59,627 Speaker 12: mean for people who are tied down by admin. I 2360 01:58:59,667 --> 01:59:03,147 Speaker 12: mean how many amateur sports and volunteer officials that we 2361 01:59:03,267 --> 01:59:05,667 Speaker 12: got here who are running clubs all over New Zealand 2362 01:59:06,427 --> 01:59:08,987 Speaker 12: and it's just dragging them down the amount of work 2363 01:59:09,027 --> 01:59:11,347 Speaker 12: that they've got to do. But an example from the 2364 01:59:11,387 --> 01:59:13,827 Speaker 12: other day, I'm doing some work with a client and 2365 01:59:14,227 --> 01:59:17,067 Speaker 12: they sent me a brief, they sent me their strategic plan, 2366 01:59:17,667 --> 01:59:20,747 Speaker 12: they sent me five or six surveys in questionnaires that 2367 01:59:20,787 --> 01:59:24,627 Speaker 12: they've done over the last few years. I did some interviews. 2368 01:59:24,667 --> 01:59:26,867 Speaker 12: I dumped it all into the AI platform and I said, 2369 01:59:26,987 --> 01:59:29,907 Speaker 12: looking at the data and pointing this would have taken 2370 01:59:30,027 --> 01:59:33,027 Speaker 12: me days. And I said, look at all the data 2371 01:59:33,067 --> 01:59:36,947 Speaker 12: that I've just put in, please identify one the five 2372 01:59:37,147 --> 01:59:40,507 Speaker 12: clear trends that were seeing from twenty two to twenty 2373 01:59:40,587 --> 01:59:44,267 Speaker 12: five and suggest a list of questions that I could 2374 01:59:44,347 --> 01:59:47,667 Speaker 12: go back to the community of the sport and asked 2375 01:59:48,627 --> 01:59:51,827 Speaker 12: Clarification to seek their input on where we should go next. 2376 01:59:52,627 --> 01:59:56,827 Speaker 12: That seriously took three to four minutes to do a 2377 01:59:56,947 --> 02:00:00,747 Speaker 12: data analysis project that would have taken me days and 2378 02:00:00,907 --> 02:00:03,467 Speaker 12: to a higher level. And the ability to bounce questions 2379 02:00:03,507 --> 02:00:07,587 Speaker 12: backwards and forwards makes it a very very and useful tool. 2380 02:00:08,027 --> 02:00:10,507 Speaker 12: And you know, I think about how volunteers ten amates 2381 02:00:10,587 --> 02:00:12,467 Speaker 12: right throughout the industry who have the lifeblood of what 2382 02:00:12,547 --> 02:00:15,987 Speaker 12: we do in sport. It might really save them so 2383 02:00:16,147 --> 02:00:18,867 Speaker 12: much time and allow them to get back to just 2384 02:00:18,947 --> 02:00:20,187 Speaker 12: working with kids and families. 2385 02:00:20,507 --> 02:00:23,187 Speaker 3: Yeah, and look, you've landed on exactly the point I 2386 02:00:23,267 --> 02:00:25,347 Speaker 3: wanted to finish on because when I first started to 2387 02:00:25,387 --> 02:00:29,027 Speaker 3: dabble in this with my work, asking AI to give me, 2388 02:00:29,187 --> 02:00:31,267 Speaker 3: you know, to do some research for me about about 2389 02:00:31,507 --> 02:00:35,387 Speaker 3: sportsperson's careers, you know, suggesting some possible interview questions that 2390 02:00:35,467 --> 02:00:37,947 Speaker 3: sort of thing. I almost felt like I was cheating. 2391 02:00:38,347 --> 02:00:40,267 Speaker 3: I felt like I wasn't putting the work and I 2392 02:00:40,387 --> 02:00:42,267 Speaker 3: was being a bit lazy. But my wife said to me, 2393 02:00:42,707 --> 02:00:45,747 Speaker 3: very wise woman, she said, think of what you can 2394 02:00:45,827 --> 02:00:48,427 Speaker 3: do with the time that you save. And it was 2395 02:00:48,467 --> 02:00:50,347 Speaker 3: the last line of the notes you sent me that 2396 02:00:51,347 --> 02:00:55,387 Speaker 3: crystallizes this. AI will provide the opportunity for more coaches 2397 02:00:55,787 --> 02:00:59,427 Speaker 3: to dedicate more time to helping more people be all 2398 02:00:59,547 --> 02:01:02,347 Speaker 3: they choose to be, to help more kids realize their 2399 02:01:02,387 --> 02:01:05,987 Speaker 3: full potential as athletes and as people. I'm not sure 2400 02:01:06,027 --> 02:01:10,027 Speaker 3: there's anything anything untoward going on in there, but I 2401 02:01:10,107 --> 02:01:11,067 Speaker 3: think that's true. 2402 02:01:11,107 --> 02:01:16,347 Speaker 12: Pointy is that the coaches, particularly volunteers, are so time poor. 2403 02:01:16,427 --> 02:01:18,467 Speaker 12: But you imagine if I said you're a coach, we 2404 02:01:18,547 --> 02:01:21,227 Speaker 12: could save you two hours a week that you don't 2405 02:01:21,267 --> 02:01:24,667 Speaker 12: have to write training programs, analyze videos so much. All 2406 02:01:24,747 --> 02:01:27,227 Speaker 12: that stuff we can organize to do for you very quickly, 2407 02:01:27,347 --> 02:01:31,107 Speaker 12: very easily, and for almost no money. The paid version 2408 02:01:31,147 --> 02:01:33,147 Speaker 12: of Chat that goes well is twenty dollars a month. 2409 02:01:33,587 --> 02:01:35,027 Speaker 12: You can get one hundred dollars a month. We'll just 2410 02:01:35,147 --> 02:01:38,467 Speaker 12: use the free one. The free versions quite good. So 2411 02:01:38,587 --> 02:01:41,707 Speaker 12: you've got two hours a week. Now you could use 2412 02:01:41,787 --> 02:01:45,507 Speaker 12: that to build stronger relations that you could go and 2413 02:01:45,627 --> 02:01:48,267 Speaker 12: join a gym and do two one hour sessions and 2414 02:01:48,347 --> 02:01:50,947 Speaker 12: look after your own health. You could schedule a movie 2415 02:01:51,027 --> 02:01:53,267 Speaker 12: night with your partner. Course, I don't know how many 2416 02:01:53,307 --> 02:01:56,787 Speaker 12: coaches out there there are sporting widows and widowers because 2417 02:01:56,827 --> 02:01:59,827 Speaker 12: they just don't see their family anymore. Give them back. 2418 02:01:59,947 --> 02:02:00,867 Speaker 8: The only. 2419 02:02:02,707 --> 02:02:07,027 Speaker 12: Truly consumable resource in the world, which is time to give. 2420 02:02:06,907 --> 02:02:10,347 Speaker 3: Them back that time, more time that they can use 2421 02:02:10,387 --> 02:02:13,107 Speaker 3: for so many other things, including just being more effective 2422 02:02:13,147 --> 02:02:17,427 Speaker 3: in their coaching.
