1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:02,240
Speaker 1: Darcy Watergrove Sports Talk Coasters with me.

2
00:00:02,279 --> 00:00:03,920
Speaker 2: Hello, Darcey Ellen.

3
00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:06,440
Speaker 1: Does he have a point about the haka?

4
00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:10,520
Speaker 2: Why not? What it is is basically it's living rent

5
00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:15,640
Speaker 2: free in his head and it's just really STFU because

6
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:22,160
Speaker 2: shut up. It doesn't matter to the all Blacks. They

7
00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:24,840
Speaker 2: don't key complaining that you want mate, stop it if

8
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:26,640
Speaker 2: you don't like it.

9
00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:29,120
Speaker 1: Okay, So this is Martin.

10
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:31,200
Speaker 2: What he's trying to do is get clickbait because he's

11
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:33,560
Speaker 2: not playing, he's injured, he has gone.

12
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:36,440
Speaker 1: Maybe he's just having an opinion. I think he's got

13
00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:38,959
Speaker 1: a point. Can I explain to you absolutely. I think

14
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 1: that everything that we do before international tests is ridiculous,

15
00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:46,279
Speaker 1: like the national anthems for example, what the hell are

16
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:49,040
Speaker 1: we doing before playing a game of footy? That's all

17
00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:49,360
Speaker 1: it is.

18
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:50,639
Speaker 2: Don't even move to America.

19
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:53,320
Speaker 1: Why are they standing there singing songs like they're going

20
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 1: to go to war with each other? It's a game

21
00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 1: of football.

22
00:00:56,280 --> 00:01:00,320
Speaker 2: Not a fan of the national anthems, but not a

23
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:06,119
Speaker 2: fan of constantly playing Star Spangled But it's all very

24
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 2: I know, it's very.

25
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 1: I mean look because have a look, for example at

26
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 1: an NPC game or a super rugby game right, we're

27
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,120
Speaker 1: not having songs and carry on playing your hand, which

28
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:17,120
Speaker 1: is going we just go off play the game exactly.

29
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 2: Maybe I have a countdown on the big screens.

30
00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:23,040
Speaker 1: Five now it does. Maybe back in the day when

31
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 1: when an international test was a really rare, weird thing

32
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,319
Speaker 1: because you couldn't really travel, I can understand that you

33
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:30,479
Speaker 1: wanted to stand there and sing and make a big

34
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:33,400
Speaker 1: before the show performance. But it's like a dime a

35
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 1: dozen't now give rid of all the stuff.

36
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:38,040
Speaker 2: I suppose I'd throw this back at you, like myself,

37
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:42,399
Speaker 2: unless I'm sadly mistaken, never represented your country in any

38
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 2: sport at the highest level. This is true because I'd

39
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:48,480
Speaker 2: suggest that for people that have dedicated their life to

40
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 2: getting that jersey, jersey what.

41
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 1: It is, I'm not sentimental and they get a.

42
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 2: Huge amount of pride going I have worked my butt

43
00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 2: off my entire life. I want to them like that

44
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 2: twenty three and you play the anthem for me and

45
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 2: I'm proud.

46
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 1: Really, I counter that with the proportion of all blacks

47
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 1: who sing the anthem.

48
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 2: Well, you're talking about your homeland again.

49
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,360
Speaker 1: No, the proportion of all blacks who sing the anthem standing,

50
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 1: they just stand there to half of them don't even

51
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:16,959
Speaker 1: know the lyrics.

52
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 2: No, they don't. They don't know the words, so that's

53
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 2: been embarrassing. When they do that, they pan it across

54
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:22,679
Speaker 2: and can see them kind of gulping. And then you

55
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:26,080
Speaker 2: go to other countries and they climb right into it

56
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 2: and they love it.

57
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,640
Speaker 1: I know, the Japanese squad, we're not that singing at

58
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 1: the weekend.

59
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 2: But when you look at the nature of international sport, though,

60
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,960
Speaker 2: there's what a percentage maybe eighty percent of actual born

61
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:39,679
Speaker 2: New Zealanders that play in the team. A lot of

62
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 2: these guys like I did three years residency. Hell are

63
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:44,359
Speaker 2: you singing?

64
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 1: So to the point is all of the stuff that

65
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 1: we do before an international test, like the drama of it,

66
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,359
Speaker 1: maybe a little bit lost in the modern era when

67
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 1: actually it doesn't feel like that dramatic an event.

68
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 2: Remember back in the day, when Buck Shelford is actually

69
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 2: joining us to silence sports talk to talk about this,

70
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:06,240
Speaker 2: I would say, Sir Wayne shelf the point he revitalized

71
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:07,960
Speaker 2: the haka. But remember back in the day it was

72
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 2: only actually performed away from home. Yes, at home, yes,

73
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 2: and that made it really special because yes, I'm staying

74
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 2: at the middle of the night to watching it to

75
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 2: see that even though they butchered it every time, it

76
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 2: was something to look at. Whereas now it's at home,

77
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,359
Speaker 2: a lot of people really enjoy it. They completely buy into.

78
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 2: They like the challenge nature, the respect nature, the whole thing.

79
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 2: But I think I think, Marla, you know what happened

80
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 2: straight after that, Well he deleted the tweet and then

81
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:37,960
Speaker 2: collapsed his Twitter account and ran away. So I think

82
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 2: he got some responses he didn't like. I think he panicked.

83
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 2: He's like, can you give me some swing low sweet

84
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 2: charity anytimes?

85
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 1: So traditionally, you're obviously talking about it tonight.

86
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 2: Yeah. And also the man behind the new Indian NBL team, Yeah,

87
00:03:58,800 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 2: the Panthers.

88
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 1: Interesting, Okay, Darcy, thank you, Darcy Wild Grow Sports Soral Coast.
