Did they say Piney, Hello Heather? 4 00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:10,600 Speaker 2: How was it at go media yesterday? 5 00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:15,239 Speaker 3: Oh? So good? Like Apia, It was incredible right yeah, Oh, unbelievable. 6 00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:18,880 Speaker 3: I think probably more some Moon fans there than New 7 00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:21,439 Speaker 3: Zealand fans, but all of the fans there yesterday for 8 00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:25,080 Speaker 3: this doubleheader, the Kiwi men and women against the Sarmonen 9 00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:27,120 Speaker 3: men and women. They all made a heck of a 10 00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:29,720 Speaker 3: lot of noise too. Great games of rugby league, the 11 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:32,879 Speaker 3: New Zealand women coming from twenty nil down to win 12 00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:35,840 Speaker 3: twenty to twenty, and then the New Zealand men getting 13 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:37,839 Speaker 3: their twenty four to eighteen although I thought actually some 14 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:40,480 Speaker 3: oh probably should have won that game. So two competitive 15 00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:43,680 Speaker 3: matches a great occasion. Just shows how important it is 16 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:47,080 Speaker 3: for rugby league players to wear their national colors, even 17 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 3: at the end of a long NRL season. It was 18 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 3: great to see them all fronting up there yesterday. 19 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:52,879 Speaker 2: Why did you think Somemore should have won? 20 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:55,120 Speaker 3: They dropped the ball a couple of times with a 21 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:57,560 Speaker 3: tri line open. They had some chances to win that game. 22 00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 3: Heather they could easily have won that game. In fact, 23 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 3: Stacy Jones say, the Keywis coach afterward was that we 24 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 3: need to work on our defense because we won't be 25 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 3: so lucky next time. So yeah, they missed the chance. 26 00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:09,960 Speaker 3: Some more, I think to beat New Zealand for the 27 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 3: first time. 28 00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:12,560 Speaker 2: Should that be a bit of a bit of a 29 00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:14,199 Speaker 2: scare for our squad? 30 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 3: I think it's just a reflection of where we are now. 31 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,959 Speaker 3: You know, there aren't minos anymore, and days gone by 32 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,840 Speaker 3: some all kind of cobbled together. Aside, let's not forget 33 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,120 Speaker 3: you know, Roger t we've asked a check was wearing 34 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,040 Speaker 3: the fullback jersey for some more or so he's a 35 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:29,680 Speaker 3: pretty handy player and he's not the only one. 36 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, fair point. Now, have we got the two best 37 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:33,720 Speaker 2: teams in the final for the NPC yep? 38 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 3: I think so. Canterbury to host Otago Saturday afternoon in 39 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 3: christ Church. I think Canterbury the best defensive team, Otago 40 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:42,960 Speaker 3: the best attacking team, and I think the five past 41 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 3: four kickoff in christ Church on Saturday probably suits Otarget 42 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 3: more than Canterbury. I think if you if you want 43 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 3: to nullify an attacking team, you probably play a game 44 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 3: at night when it's a bit dewy, a bit colder, 45 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 3: that sort of thing. Otago have been really good on attack. 46 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 3: Plus they went to christ Church and took the ran 47 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 3: Furley Shield off Canterbury about a month ago, so they 48 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 3: won't have any fears going up there. Canterbury, on the 49 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 3: other hand, will be stinging from that and will want 50 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 3: to make a point at the end of their season. 51 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 3: So yeah, two good teams, hopefully an excellent final in 52 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 3: christ Church on Saturday. 53 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:12,919 Speaker 2: Why is the kickoff so early? 54 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 3: I've been trying to find that out, and Canterbury wanted 55 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:19,120 Speaker 3: it at that time against what I just said. You know, 56 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 3: they wanted the afternoon kickoff because they think it encourages 57 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 3: more fans to come along, more families, which is a 58 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:27,359 Speaker 3: good point. But I would have thought Sky Sport would 59 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:30,000 Speaker 3: have said no at seven o'clock, that's when our viewership 60 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 3: is at its highest. But no, five past four. And 61 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 3: the only reason, yeah, that's the only reason I can 62 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 3: find Piney. 63 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 2: It's particularly interesting, isn't it, because they refuse to move 64 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 2: the time for last for this past weekend when actually 65 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:42,640 Speaker 2: there was a clash with the cricket and it would 66 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 2: have done them the world of good. I would have 67 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 2: thought it to me, Yes. 68 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:49,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, Sky you mean or yes no, you're right because 69 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 3: the Canterbury rugby team wanted the afternoon kickoff for their 70 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:54,800 Speaker 3: for their their early game as well their semi final 71 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 3: as well. Yeah, and they wouldn't budge on that, So 72 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 3: you're right. Very interesting they've done at this time when 73 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:02,119 Speaker 3: there's nothing that clashes with if they handed at seven 74 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 3: a dozen class with anything apart from maybe the Coronation 75 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 3: Street omnibus or something like that. 76 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 1: I know. 77 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 2: Oh okay, we'll listen maybe finely.
