1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,800
Speaker 1: The All Blacks have made five changes ahead of Sunday's

2
00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:05,880
Speaker 1: Sunday Morning's Test against France. Most notably, we've got Bowden

3
00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:09,040
Speaker 1: Barrett in replacing Damien Mackenzie, cam roy Gard's the number

4
00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:12,080
Speaker 1: nine Jersey and Severy Reese also replaces Mark Talier who's

5
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:13,600
Speaker 1: got an injury I think in his hand or something

6
00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:16,280
Speaker 1: like that. Ben Smith is a former All Black fullback.

7
00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:19,959
Speaker 2: Hay Ben, what do yeah? Yeah? Good? Thank you? What

8
00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:21,439
Speaker 2: do you reckon? Are you liking the lineup as you

9
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:21,720
Speaker 2: see it?

10
00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:27,720
Speaker 3: Yeah? No, I think obviously they've made a few changes. Yeah,

11
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:30,720
Speaker 3: I thought it was I thought Damien played really well

12
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:35,479
Speaker 3: last week. But to her body back, I suppose his

13
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:39,080
Speaker 3: experience and what he brings, Yeah, they'll bring him back in.

14
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:41,680
Speaker 2: Well, are you not totally convinced by that?

15
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:48,280
Speaker 3: I think, like I think probably Damien had one of

16
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:52,920
Speaker 3: his better games last weekend, and I thought that was

17
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:56,520
Speaker 3: pretty polished against Eland in the second half. But I understand.

18
00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:01,000
Speaker 3: I see, obviously Body's got a lot of experience and

19
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 3: and Damian's pretty good off the bench, adds a bit

20
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:07,640
Speaker 3: of impact, and yeah, I'd say that it'll be a

21
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 3: tough game that they'll want to finish well the French will, Yeah, they'll.

22
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:16,679
Speaker 3: I suppose they had a bit of a World Cup

23
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:20,400
Speaker 3: that they underperformed that they would have liked to probably

24
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 3: finished revenge. Yeah, I would say it'll be a game. Yeah.

25
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,200
Speaker 1: What do you make of this French player who's packed

26
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,560
Speaker 1: us sad because he wasn't picked and is now refusing

27
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:33,400
Speaker 1: to be on the bench.

28
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I heard that today. I don't know all the details,

29
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:39,480
Speaker 3: to be fair, but there must be something going on

30
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 3: there that. Yeah, it just seems weird to me obviously, Yeah,

31
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 3: something else that play something. Yeah, obviously had a bit

32
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:52,800
Speaker 3: of a bad day.

33
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 1: But listen, tell me we are third week in row

34
00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 1: that Ethan de Grud hasn't been selected. First of all,

35
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,000
Speaker 1: it was because he wasn't meeting internal standards, and now

36
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 1: it's all starting to get a bit weird.

37
00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:04,800
Speaker 2: You as intrigued by this as we are.

38
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know Ethan degree and he works bloody hard

39
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 3: and he'll fight his way back into getting an opportunity.

40
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 2: We have you asked him? Did you ask him? What

41
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 2: did you do?

42
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:21,520
Speaker 3: I know, I don't know, to be fair, but I

43
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:25,960
Speaker 3: do know he'll work really hard. And I also, guys

44
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:28,720
Speaker 3: have been given an opportunity have played really well, so

45
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:33,280
Speaker 3: I'm sure yeah, will get plenty more chances in the future.

46
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,920
Speaker 3: But at the moment he just yeah, I said the

47
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 3: messages coming out that mister by his time, and yeah,

48
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 3: he will get opportunities going forward.

49
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 1: And are you At the start it was a bit

50
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:48,960
Speaker 1: shaky for Razor Ray, but he started to firm it up.

51
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:49,959
Speaker 2: Are you convinced by him?

52
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 3: Yeah? I think he's He's obviously done really well in

53
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 3: this India tour, Doves. I thought the All Blacks against

54
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 3: Iland were pretty cchlinical in the second half. And yeah,

55
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,359
Speaker 3: I really enjoyed watching guys like Wallace and TD get

56
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:13,240
Speaker 3: an opportunity. So yeah, that's been parenty promising. And then

57
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 3: obviously people like Kemoigard. Oh I've heard them down the background.
