1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:01,520
Speaker 1: Eighteen after four news talks.

2
00:00:01,480 --> 00:00:03,320
Speaker 2: There'll be lots of your feedback coming in on our

3
00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:04,720
Speaker 2: military personnel getting.

4
00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:06,400
Speaker 1: Christmas canceled this year. I'll get to that in just

5
00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:06,840
Speaker 1: a second.

6
00:00:06,840 --> 00:00:09,080
Speaker 3: But does canceled Christmas now they're.

7
00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:11,240
Speaker 2: Going to have to work potentially on Christmas Day. Darcy

8
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:12,160
Speaker 2: Water gaves he a sport.

9
00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:14,160
Speaker 1: Hey Darcy, Yeah, good afternoon.

10
00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:16,840
Speaker 3: Good advice there too. If you're involved in the tab

11
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:22,320
Speaker 3: Ira eighteen bet responsibly this weekend. I find this interesting, right.

12
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:24,200
Speaker 3: I don't know if you're a punter or not, but

13
00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:26,960
Speaker 3: when you look at the dominance that England has had

14
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:29,640
Speaker 3: over this New Zealand team ahead of this last test,

15
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:32,080
Speaker 3: and they're looking to flog us three zip, it's the

16
00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:35,760
Speaker 3: fon farewell to Tim Salvey and I might add there

17
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:38,160
Speaker 3: calling the one of the stands that Tim Salvee stands,

18
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:41,160
Speaker 3: so he's going to get picked. New Zealand two dollars ten,

19
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:44,320
Speaker 3: England a dollar eighty seven. I thought England will be

20
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:47,839
Speaker 3: wild favorites for this one, but for some reason, New

21
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:51,920
Speaker 3: Zealand two dollars and ten. I'd still run with England.

22
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:53,760
Speaker 3: It won't be a draw. That's twelve dollars. I mean

23
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 3: the game gets played too fast for that one. And

24
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,480
Speaker 3: if you're looking at highest run score for New zeal

25
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:03,720
Speaker 3: On the first things came. Williamson is paying four dollars.

26
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:08,120
Speaker 3: But I would suggest probably revenge of it because he's

27
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 3: his due. I'd say in that all right, but the

28
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:14,039
Speaker 3: RA team plainly bet responsibly, but get amongst and don't

29
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:15,959
Speaker 3: bet more than you can afford to lose.

30
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:18,959
Speaker 2: Key, brilliant, Thank you. Let's go to Papa New Guinea.

31
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 2: They're getting an NRL team.

32
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:22,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, this has been on the cards for quite some time.

33
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:26,160
Speaker 3: It's all part of an agreement around the Australian government,

34
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:29,120
Speaker 3: Papua New Guinea government. With the investment of the funding,

35
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 3: they're basically building a wall between themselves in China. Give

36
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:36,840
Speaker 3: them a league team, we'll give you ahold of money.

37
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:40,720
Speaker 3: And it's so very politically motivated. But in saying that,

38
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:44,560
Speaker 3: in Stephen Price, former warriort and Australian league player joint

39
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:48,560
Speaker 3: us on the show tonight, that's so passionate. It is

40
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 3: the number one sport in the Papua New Guinea rugby league.

41
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 3: Nothing else even comes close there.

42
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 1: It's a bit of soft power pushing to pap New Guinea.

43
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 3: Now they're mad for it, mate, they really are. The

44
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 3: crowds go. But listen, I want to talk to Steve

45
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 3: Price about this before, back in the day, so it'll

46
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 3: be quite the experience. What that means for the New

47
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 3: Zealand teams that want to crack in from the South Island, Well,

48
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 3: there's still two spots left, so we'll see.

49
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 2: You're really mixing sport and politics tonight, don't you. Saudi

50
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 2: Arabia to host the twenty thirty four feet the World Cup.

51
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 3: It's not my fault, it's what's in the news. Don't

52
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 3: blame me. That was a lay down Masseia. No one

53
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:28,639
Speaker 3: else applied, So twenty thirty four off to Saudi Arabia.

54
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 1: They got the cash.

55
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 3: Yeah wow. Look, let's face. So they talk about sport washing.

56
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 3: I'm going to say here right now with you, looks

57
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:39,239
Speaker 3: like Saudi Arabia have won sport. Congratulations, have a medal,

58
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 3: stand on the top of the dice.

59
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,119
Speaker 2: Well, does it mean just because they go and play,

60
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,239
Speaker 2: that doesn't mean that they agree with everything that they've

61
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 2: done and said no it doesn't.

62
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 3: No, no it doesn't. But they're willing to take the

63
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 3: money and that's it, and that's everybody has a price, Yeah, everybody.

64
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 2: Do you have a problem with that, I mean having

65
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 2: a price, with the fact that people are willing to

66
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 2: Some would argue bend their morals to go.

67
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,640
Speaker 3: And that's their decision. That's fine. If they want to

68
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,280
Speaker 3: do that, that's great, that's what to do.

69
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,359
Speaker 1: I mean, I they're a business.

70
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 3: Don't like it. I'm not happy. There are a number

71
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,520
Speaker 3: of countries globally, though, that have got pretty dire records

72
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:18,679
Speaker 3: in a number of different spaces. Do I not watch

73
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:20,919
Speaker 3: American sport? I'm not a great fan of what the

74
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:22,840
Speaker 3: Americans are doing around the world either, right, but I

75
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 3: watch that.

76
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 1: Yeah.

77
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 3: Will I watch a Formula One I'm boxing over there?

78
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 1: Yeah?

79
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,120
Speaker 3: Because I love the sports, so they've kind of got me.

80
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 3: And I'm a broadcaster in sport, so I have to

81
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 3: watch it.

82
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 1: Plus, where do you.

83
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:34,560
Speaker 3: Make my mind?

84
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 1: Where do you draw the line? Or would you not

85
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 1: watch a Russian playing tennis? Do you know what I mean?

86
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a really difficult one.

87
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 1: Well, I actually think it's quite simple with sport.

88
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 2: And I'm not a big sport person, right, but I

89
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 2: appreciate it. I just think sport is one of those

90
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 2: universal things that's all about connectedness and togetherness and you've

91
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 2: kind of got to say yes to everything.

92
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's when they deliver lines like we're going

93
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,440
Speaker 3: to change, we're going to become socially aware, we're going

94
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:01,440
Speaker 3: to look after the women, we're going to be nice

95
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,440
Speaker 3: to the rainbow community, we're going to stop locking up

96
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 3: dissonance and so on and so forth with And they're not.

97
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 3: They're going to go forget about all of that. Look

98
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 3: at that big sack of gold over there, and humans

99
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 3: are naturally greedy. They've all got a price and they'll

100
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 3: do it.

101
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:16,680
Speaker 1: But they're not wrong.

102
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm sorry. Morally it's it's pretty repugnant.

103
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:23,039
Speaker 1: Pugnant, yeah, but also financially necessary.

104
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're all about money, aren't we.
