He's not that bad, jeez, 7 00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:14,920 Speaker 2: He's just taking a minute to get them into shape 8 00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:16,040 Speaker 2: because they're really run down. 9 00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:19,760 Speaker 3: There's been a lot of reaction, and for me anyway, 10 00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:23,759 Speaker 3: a lot of overreaction. I think, you know, there's in 11 00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:25,560 Speaker 3: the wake of any all blacks lost, there is a 12 00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:29,160 Speaker 3: rush to blame somebody and normally more than one person, 13 00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:31,240 Speaker 3: and I think there's Yeah, there's just been a lot 14 00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:33,239 Speaker 3: of hyperbole over the last twenty four hours. I think 15 00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:34,879 Speaker 3: we all need to take a deep breath and calm down. 16 00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:38,080 Speaker 3: It's okay to be emotional about our sports teams, the 17 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:40,320 Speaker 3: ones we love, and it's okay to question them when 18 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,720 Speaker 3: things aren't going well. But you know, some of the 19 00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:45,239 Speaker 3: suggestions I've heard over the last twenty four hours have 20 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:47,720 Speaker 3: been way out of left field. Look, I think something 21 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,839 Speaker 3: has to change and guys like Wallace a tt to 22 00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:52,880 Speaker 3: Mighty Williams will come back into the team for South 23 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:56,520 Speaker 3: Africa having come back off the bench yesterday. I've got 24 00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:58,640 Speaker 3: everything cross that Cam roy Guard's going to be Okay, 25 00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:01,680 Speaker 3: I meet, I think they have to look at changes 26 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:04,040 Speaker 3: in the back three as well. I just wonder whether 27 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:08,119 Speaker 3: Ricco Yowani and Seva Reese are the right guys. I'd 28 00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 3: be making some change there as well. 29 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:12,319 Speaker 2: Okay, Now we do have a problem without our depth 30 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 2: and number nine. Now at the moment, don't. 31 00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:17,560 Speaker 3: We We do because you look what might happen if 32 00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 3: Cortes Lotima's rib injury is bad enough to keep him 33 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:22,520 Speaker 3: out of the first South African Test and Roy Guard 34 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 3: has not recovered and we know, no, I hope them 35 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:26,559 Speaker 3: won't be there. Our top three half backs, the ones 36 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:29,240 Speaker 3: we chose or rated did for the French Test and 37 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:32,399 Speaker 3: presumably would have tests and whatever the Rugby Championship are 38 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:36,080 Speaker 3: not there. So we're down to Finlay Christy, you know, 39 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:38,480 Speaker 3: serviceable enough halfback but not in the top three, and 40 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 3: then Kyle Preston, who's never played for the All Blacks before. 41 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 3: So in the biggest test since the last Rugby World 42 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,959 Speaker 3: Cup Final, we're pretty thin at number nine. 43 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 4: Really, would you be doing what Elliot says we should do, 44 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:52,279 Speaker 4: which is calling up Aaron Smith to come back from Japan. 45 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 3: Look, I'd certainly be on the phone just checking them out. Look, 46 00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 3: I mean, you know what, Heather, you could do a 47 00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 3: lot worse than getting Aaron Smith back. He's in still 48 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,760 Speaker 3: in pretty good shape playing in Japan, you know, for 49 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 3: a hail Mary in SOS. 50 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 4: We're talking rubbish here, aren't we, Because he don't he's 51 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 4: not eligible, he's playing in Japan. 52 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 3: Well, you can bend rules, can't you, as needs must 53 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 3: look at they're only New Zealand Rugby's own rules were. 54 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:18,360 Speaker 1: To break them. 55 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 4: If we're calling Aaron back from Japan, why don't we 56 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 4: call the handsome one back from Japan as well? Is 57 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:25,320 Speaker 4: that TJ No, the handsome one in number ten? 58 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 2: Richie? 59 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 3: It's a different situation together, and that he probably doesn't 60 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 3: want to come back just at the moment. Look, look, 61 00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 3: I don't think well, I don't think we're sending out 62 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 3: out of SOSS. I think they'll go with what they've got. 63 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 3: But yeah, look like I said, I think the single 64 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 3: biggest boost of this team would be if came Roy 65 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 3: guards fit for these games. 66 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 2: Yeah totally. Now listen, are the Warrior's top four? Just 67 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 2: update us where we're at with this. 68 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, fourth at the moment, are still in their own hands. 69 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 3: Two games to go, Eels Friday night at home and 70 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 3: then the Sea Eagles away the following weekends. When them 71 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 3: both and they're in they can afford to lose one. 72 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,639 Speaker 3: If one of the Broncos or Sharks, in fact, both 73 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:00,519 Speaker 3: of them lose one of their remaining games, they're still 74 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 3: a bit to go. Look it's in their own hands. 75 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:04,119 Speaker 3: They've won two in a row now, off the back 76 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 3: of that sort of three lost period got players coming back. 77 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,359 Speaker 3: I'm backing them into the top four once they get there. 78 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,639 Speaker 3: Who knows, but given the fact they were thirteenth last year, 79 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:15,920 Speaker 3: if you'd said, you know, to Warriors fans, you'll be 80 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 3: fourth in twenty twenty five, they would bite your handle 81 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:18,919 Speaker 3: for you. 82 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 2: We'll take it. 83 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 4: Thank you, Piney, appreciate it.
