1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,480 Speaker 1: Here the get real no all black when this year 2 00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:05,240 Speaker 1: other than Japan has been convincing FFS, stick to what 3 00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:07,480 Speaker 1: you know. As you know nothing about rugby. Robertson thought 4 00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:10,000 Speaker 1: he could walk on water. He can't. Thumbs down, thumbs down. 5 00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:12,920 Speaker 1: Jason Pine's sports talk host does actually know about rugby, 6 00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:14,400 Speaker 1: and he's with May piney well. 7 00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:18,320 Speaker 2: At the risk of receiving a similar text, I actually 8 00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:20,159 Speaker 2: think I actually agree with you. I think there's a 9 00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:24,600 Speaker 2: lot to like about the progress of Scott Robertson's All 10 00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:25,520 Speaker 2: Blacks throughout. 11 00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:27,280 Speaker 1: This year because I mean, let's be honest, at the 12 00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:29,280 Speaker 1: start it was pretty bad, right. We looked at and 13 00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:31,360 Speaker 1: we were like, oh, jeez, give the guy. Cut the 14 00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:33,000 Speaker 1: guy some slack. But it's a lot of slack. We're 15 00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:33,640 Speaker 1: gutting him. 16 00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:35,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it was what was a four and three? 17 00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:37,360 Speaker 2: Were they? They were after the first seven tests of the 18 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:39,919 Speaker 2: year they had won forur and lost three. You know, 19 00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 2: we're fifty to fifty there or thereabouts, and as you say, 20 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:45,800 Speaker 2: but for a point yesterday morning would be would be 21 00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:47,919 Speaker 2: looking at seven and zero to back end the year. 22 00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:50,240 Speaker 2: We're not. Of course, France did enough to win the 23 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:52,519 Speaker 2: game yesterday. A couple of interesting things for me. I'm 24 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 2: not sure why they took cam Roygard off when they did. Yeah, right, 25 00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 2: It just seemed odd to me that he, I mean, 26 00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:01,960 Speaker 2: he was playing well like he's and unleash they're managing 27 00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:04,399 Speaker 2: his minutes, which they haven't said they are on his 28 00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:07,200 Speaker 2: return from injury. I just would have just left the 29 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 2: guy on. 30 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,319 Speaker 1: Because it brook puff did he did not. 31 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:12,720 Speaker 2: Look puffed, And hindsight's always twenty twenty. Yeah, that as 32 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:14,960 Speaker 2: we know. But I think I think Cortez Latima had 33 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 2: had a challenging thirty minutes at Cameroy Guard. If you 34 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,200 Speaker 2: looked at the two of them, he acquitted himself a 35 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 2: lot better than Courtiz Latima. I would have left him 36 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 2: on at least until the sixty fifth minute. And I 37 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 2: often wonder if a half back's playing well, well, do 38 00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:28,559 Speaker 2: he just leave the guy on? Yeah? 39 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 1: I take your point, right, stop stop kind of sticking 40 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 1: to the script and be a little bit more nimble. 41 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:38,440 Speaker 1: But also there was a suggestion I heard today that 42 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,400 Speaker 1: call to go for two penalties rather than a try 43 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 1: came from Razor up in the box. 44 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 2: Is that a fact or not that Well, I've heard 45 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 2: that suggested too, And actually Elliott Smith mentioned it in 46 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 2: commentary because the All Backs coaches were right behind where 47 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 2: they were calling the game from. Yeah, and so I 48 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 2: think he got that got that sense from being in 49 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 2: and around the coaching box. It is possible that the 50 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 2: message got down because is a you know, they can 51 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 2: they're in comms with the guys on the sideline. They 52 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 2: can get a message out. Although in the postmatch Razer 53 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,120 Speaker 2: said we back Scott Barrett to make the right calls 54 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 2: out there. So yeah, there's there's a bit of confusion 55 00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 2: about who actually has the final say. I think it's 56 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 2: the on field captain, right. I feel like they are 57 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 2: the ones who have the final say. But yeah, I 58 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 2: don't think there's absolute clarity on who made the call yesterday. 59 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 1: Okay, what's going on here? So Doug Bracewell has tested 60 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 1: positive for cocaine and been suspended for a month. Is 61 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 1: he playing domestic cricket? 62 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 2: Is he well? This was this was at the back 63 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 2: end of last summer. Yeah, he tested positive for cocaine 64 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 2: after a game against Wellington back in January. Deemed to 65 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 2: have used it outside of competition. In fact, apparently was 66 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 2: after a game that that CD won and he played 67 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:52,239 Speaker 2: pretty well, and so not related to sports performance. Test 68 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 2: a positive for cocaine one month ban a question, Yeah, 69 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:57,400 Speaker 2: it's not related to performance. 70 00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:58,520 Speaker 1: Why are we testing for it? 71 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 2: Well, it's well, because it's against the sports integrity rules. 72 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 2: Is the answer to that. No, I agree with you. 73 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 2: I totally agree. If it's not performance enhancing, then then 74 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 2: you're right, why are we testing for it? It is 75 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:14,640 Speaker 2: to do with integrity and that sort of thing. The 76 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 2: problem I have, Heather is that you know, you get 77 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 2: this line trotted out, Well, they're role models for our kids. 78 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:23,120 Speaker 2: You know what, I'd prefer to be a role model 79 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:24,959 Speaker 2: for my children. Then leave it in the hands of 80 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:26,359 Speaker 2: Doug Bracewall. Pony. 81 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: I was thinking exactly that. I was like, no, parents 82 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 1: are role models for kids. I mean, if you want to, 83 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 1: if you, I entirely agree with you. And I think 84 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 1: that we have to allow these people to just be humans, 85 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: you know, Like I'm not saying go out and snort 86 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 1: some cocaine, but I am saying they are going to 87 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 1: make mistakes from time to time, and I think I 88 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 1: think we're elevating them far beyond their actual status. 89 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 2: I totally agree, totally agree. 90 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 1: Piney, thank you. I'm going to put that guy on 91 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 1: to you who sent me that nasty text.
