So you know, there's 132 00:07:01,787 --> 00:07:04,267 Speaker 7: just you've got to try and a lot of eyes 133 00:07:04,307 --> 00:07:07,187 Speaker 7: and cross a lot of tea's and when one of 134 00:07:07,187 --> 00:07:09,107 Speaker 7: those things isn't quite right, you're not going to win 135 00:07:09,107 --> 00:07:09,467 Speaker 7: the race. 136 00:07:09,707 --> 00:07:12,067 Speaker 2: You speak about co drivers, you're one with Craig lounds 137 00:07:12,107 --> 00:07:16,187 Speaker 2: with Stephen Richards and twice with Rick Kelly. Is there 138 00:07:16,187 --> 00:07:19,467 Speaker 2: a pre planned percentage of the lapse grig that you 139 00:07:19,547 --> 00:07:22,027 Speaker 2: each do and can and does that change as the 140 00:07:22,107 --> 00:07:23,187 Speaker 2: race unfolds. 141 00:07:23,667 --> 00:07:26,347 Speaker 7: Yeah, it can change. I mean there's a minimum requirement 142 00:07:26,827 --> 00:07:29,147 Speaker 7: for the co driver to do fifty five I think 143 00:07:29,187 --> 00:07:31,707 Speaker 7: it is fifty five laps here at Bathurst, so you 144 00:07:31,747 --> 00:07:35,307 Speaker 7: know that one driver is obviously not dominating. But depending 145 00:07:35,307 --> 00:07:40,027 Speaker 7: on strategy, depending on safety cars when they arrive, all 146 00:07:40,067 --> 00:07:41,467 Speaker 7: sorts of things can mean. 147 00:07:41,747 --> 00:07:43,267 Speaker 5: That a co driver can be in a car for 148 00:07:43,307 --> 00:07:44,187 Speaker 5: a lot more. 149 00:07:44,467 --> 00:07:49,267 Speaker 7: Than what is planned and that's when the combination of 150 00:07:49,627 --> 00:07:52,587 Speaker 7: lead driver code driver is so important and can make 151 00:07:52,587 --> 00:07:54,907 Speaker 7: the big difference. So when you've got a co driver 152 00:07:54,987 --> 00:07:58,227 Speaker 7: that's running around doing lap times that are the same 153 00:07:58,587 --> 00:08:01,267 Speaker 7: or just even just slightly slower than the main guy, 154 00:08:01,627 --> 00:08:04,307 Speaker 7: you have an ability to open up your strategy and 155 00:08:04,347 --> 00:08:07,747 Speaker 7: not be so locked into how you're planning your race. 156 00:08:07,867 --> 00:08:11,027 Speaker 7: So that's a critical one and there's some obviously some 157 00:08:11,187 --> 00:08:13,947 Speaker 7: superb combinations out there that have that luxury. 158 00:08:14,627 --> 00:08:16,027 Speaker 5: In tomorrow's race, you. 159 00:08:16,147 --> 00:08:18,267 Speaker 2: Drove what many still consider to be the greatest single 160 00:08:18,347 --> 00:08:21,667 Speaker 2: lap ever completed, Amount Panorama Top ten Shootout two thousand 161 00:08:21,667 --> 00:08:24,467 Speaker 2: and three, the Lap of the Gods, as they called it. 162 00:08:24,507 --> 00:08:26,507 Speaker 2: No one had ever gone under two minutes eight John 163 00:08:26,587 --> 00:08:29,147 Speaker 2: Bow did, and then you went over a second faster 164 00:08:29,667 --> 00:08:33,027 Speaker 2: two six point eight five nine four seconds. What is 165 00:08:33,067 --> 00:08:35,347 Speaker 2: going through your mind during that one hundred and twenty 166 00:08:35,347 --> 00:08:36,227 Speaker 2: six seconds? 167 00:08:36,987 --> 00:08:41,747 Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean the shootout, the qualifying session yesterday and 168 00:08:41,787 --> 00:08:44,867 Speaker 7: Friday afternoon, which turned out to me and absolute Huntinger, 169 00:08:45,787 --> 00:08:47,387 Speaker 7: the closest in history. 170 00:08:47,747 --> 00:08:49,387 Speaker 5: It was just I couldn't believe it. 171 00:08:49,467 --> 00:08:52,947 Speaker 7: Literally, it's the definition of unbelievable what we saw stand qualifying. 172 00:08:53,267 --> 00:08:56,267 Speaker 7: You know, it's the biggest qualifying session of the year 173 00:08:56,307 --> 00:08:58,187 Speaker 7: and then we have the bigger shootout of the year, 174 00:08:58,987 --> 00:09:01,387 Speaker 7: and I just it's a moment, it's a period of 175 00:09:01,467 --> 00:09:04,507 Speaker 7: the weekend that I just love, I can't wait for 176 00:09:04,787 --> 00:09:08,747 Speaker 7: because you're on this piece of ash felt all by yourself, 177 00:09:09,707 --> 00:09:11,987 Speaker 7: looking to try and do a fast the fastest that 178 00:09:12,107 --> 00:09:14,507 Speaker 7: you can, to be on pole position at the greatest race, 179 00:09:14,987 --> 00:09:17,787 Speaker 7: and you know, it's a privilege to have that opportunity 180 00:09:17,827 --> 00:09:19,947 Speaker 7: to do it.

When it comes to race pace, 211 00:10:51,707 --> 00:10:54,747 Speaker 7: you know there's a moment where you see it slipping away, 212 00:10:55,267 --> 00:10:58,667 Speaker 7: but certainly at the beginning of the race one thousand 213 00:10:58,747 --> 00:11:04,427 Speaker 7: kilometers ahead, before the first couple of pit stop cycles 214 00:11:04,467 --> 00:11:07,707 Speaker 7: happen and before you cap you know what kind of 215 00:11:07,707 --> 00:11:10,347 Speaker 7: pace you've got in the car. It's still a very 216 00:11:10,387 --> 00:11:14,867 Speaker 7: much reality, especially considering it's Matt Pain and his co 217 00:11:15,027 --> 00:11:18,707 Speaker 7: driver Garth Tander, who's obviously had huge success here on 218 00:11:18,747 --> 00:11:22,147 Speaker 7: the mountain and that's going to be a critical critical 219 00:11:22,187 --> 00:11:26,067 Speaker 7: component component of them being able to become a contender 220 00:11:26,667 --> 00:11:28,907 Speaker 7: by the end of the race. So too, very experience 221 00:11:29,027 --> 00:11:31,867 Speaker 7: or he's very experienced, Guthtander. Matt Pain is showing experience 222 00:11:31,867 --> 00:11:34,947 Speaker 7: beyond his years. So you know they'll be coming up 223 00:11:34,987 --> 00:11:37,147 Speaker 7: with a plan, probably go off strategy in some way, 224 00:11:37,187 --> 00:11:41,027 Speaker 7: shape or form, to try and find a way to 225 00:11:41,067 --> 00:11:44,307 Speaker 7: build speed and make ground without traffic around them and 226 00:11:44,347 --> 00:11:48,667 Speaker 7: then find themselves back into the you know, so you know, 227 00:11:49,387 --> 00:11:51,947 Speaker 7: safety cars give us and they take us away. Also 228 00:11:52,387 --> 00:11:55,867 Speaker 7: positions they can change your day when it looks like 229 00:11:55,987 --> 00:11:57,987 Speaker 7: your day is done, so you know they will not 230 00:11:58,027 --> 00:11:59,987 Speaker 7: be giving up until obviously the last lap. 231 00:12:00,227 --> 00:12:01,707 Speaker 2: We do have a key we in the top ten 232 00:12:01,707 --> 00:12:06,707 Speaker 2: shootout though tonight Ryan Wood qualified third fastest.

It's an event, isn't it that 289 00:14:52,227 --> 00:14:56,987 Speaker 2: even if you don't have a deep, deep, lifelong love 290 00:14:57,027 --> 00:14:59,187 Speaker 2: of motorsport, if you are going to choose one, you 291 00:14:59,267 --> 00:15:01,867 Speaker 2: might choose, for example, the Australian Grand Prix. You might 292 00:15:01,947 --> 00:15:06,067 Speaker 2: choose Bathist if you have. If you've been, please give 293 00:15:06,107 --> 00:15:08,107 Speaker 2: us a well and tell us about your experiences there. 294 00:15:08,707 --> 00:15:13,347 Speaker 2: Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighties our number. Bathist itself. 295 00:15:14,107 --> 00:15:16,627 Speaker 2: The town isn't a big place. The permanent population is 296 00:15:16,667 --> 00:15:21,427 Speaker 2: only about forty five thousand and Last year and presumably 297 00:15:21,467 --> 00:15:25,547 Speaker 2: again this year, over four times that many people came 298 00:15:25,587 --> 00:15:28,107 Speaker 2: along to watch. One hundred and ninety three thousand fans 299 00:15:28,107 --> 00:15:31,747 Speaker 2: attended last year, presumably the same, if not more this year. 300 00:15:33,027 --> 00:15:35,947 Speaker 2: Bethur's yourself about two hundred k inland from Sydney. So 301 00:15:36,827 --> 00:15:38,547 Speaker 2: when you get there, where do you park? Where do 302 00:15:38,587 --> 00:15:42,547 Speaker 2: you stay? I think it's a lot of it's camping. 303 00:15:42,587 --> 00:15:48,347 Speaker 2: They have I think one thousand camp sites where you 304 00:15:48,387 --> 00:15:53,507 Speaker 2: can pitch a tent. They're all sold out. And once 305 00:15:53,547 --> 00:15:55,947 Speaker 2: you are there, where does your ticket get you? Where 306 00:15:55,947 --> 00:15:58,867 Speaker 2: can you go? Where can't you go? And what are 307 00:15:58,867 --> 00:16:03,587 Speaker 2: the best advantage points? I mean, one lap is six 308 00:16:03,627 --> 00:16:06,867 Speaker 2: point two one three kilometers, so there must be heapes 309 00:16:06,907 --> 00:16:12,787 Speaker 2: are good viewing places around. I also wonder how the 310 00:16:12,827 --> 00:16:16,187 Speaker 2: people of Bathurst feel about the race being in their backyard. 311 00:16:16,587 --> 00:16:19,307 Speaker 2: It obviously injects a heck of a lot of money 312 00:16:19,307 --> 00:16:23,707 Speaker 2: into the local economy.

When were these times? When 523 00:26:38,107 --> 00:26:39,507 Speaker 2: were these years? When did you race there? 524 00:26:40,427 --> 00:26:43,427 Speaker 15: The last time I raced there was six years ago. 525 00:26:43,507 --> 00:26:46,747 Speaker 15: I've been going to Bathist since the eighties and crewing 526 00:26:46,827 --> 00:26:49,907 Speaker 15: for different people, so I can you know, the history 527 00:26:49,947 --> 00:26:53,787 Speaker 15: of the place is interesting. It used to be Bogans, 528 00:26:53,827 --> 00:26:56,107 Speaker 15: you know, the four Versus are holding and it was 529 00:26:56,227 --> 00:26:59,027 Speaker 15: rough up on the mountain and it was dangerous. Had 530 00:26:59,067 --> 00:27:01,987 Speaker 15: been there, there were fights and vehicles would be tipped 531 00:27:02,067 --> 00:27:05,147 Speaker 15: upside down and set fire. So but they cleaned all 532 00:27:05,147 --> 00:27:08,507 Speaker 15: that up. So it was a place to go, and 533 00:27:08,587 --> 00:27:12,027 Speaker 15: you avoided certain parts of the mountain for sure, But 534 00:27:12,107 --> 00:27:14,227 Speaker 15: it's a huge track and there's plenty of places to 535 00:27:14,267 --> 00:27:16,987 Speaker 15: go to watch. As far as far as the track 536 00:27:17,467 --> 00:27:20,147 Speaker 15: to race on, it's one of the most dangerous and 537 00:27:20,227 --> 00:27:24,307 Speaker 15: most challenging I've been on. There's very little room for error. 538 00:27:25,507 --> 00:27:27,787 Speaker 15: My car can get up to Turndred and seventy thousand 539 00:27:27,867 --> 00:27:30,947 Speaker 15: are turned in seventy k on the back straight on Conrad, 540 00:27:31,067 --> 00:27:34,707 Speaker 15: which is a lot for an old car without aerodynamic help. 541 00:27:36,267 --> 00:27:39,867 Speaker 15: It's a very steep course and it's very challenging and 542 00:27:39,907 --> 00:27:42,947 Speaker 15: there's really no room for mistakes, and that's why people 543 00:27:42,947 --> 00:27:46,347 Speaker 15: love it. You either go there and go this is 544 00:27:46,387 --> 00:27:49,227 Speaker 15: too much, I'm never coming back, or unfortunately you get 545 00:27:49,267 --> 00:27:50,427 Speaker 15: the bug and. 546 00:27:50,387 --> 00:27:53,827 Speaker 16: Then you just keep going back if you can afford it. 547 00:27:53,827 --> 00:27:55,667 Speaker 16: It's expensive to go there, for sure. 548 00:27:56,027 --> 00:27:59,147 Speaker 2: Yeah, So how do you? How do you enter? Can 549 00:27:59,187 --> 00:28:01,827 Speaker 2: anyone just enter if they've got the right car and 550 00:28:01,947 --> 00:28:03,587 Speaker 2: enough money. 551 00:28:04,027 --> 00:28:06,707 Speaker 16: Well, it depends on the class. As that lady said before, 552 00:28:06,707 --> 00:28:10,027 Speaker 16: there are different events throughout the year. The one that's 553 00:28:10,067 --> 00:28:13,667 Speaker 16: on now, I wouldn't qualify for that anymore. My car 554 00:28:13,707 --> 00:28:16,107 Speaker 16: would be considered too slow. I don't know what my 555 00:28:16,227 --> 00:28:18,747 Speaker 16: times would be now compared to what they're doing. You 556 00:28:18,787 --> 00:28:20,747 Speaker 16: don't just let anyone in there with money because I 557 00:28:20,827 --> 00:28:23,747 Speaker 16: wabble all over the track and cause an accident, probably death. 558 00:28:24,307 --> 00:28:25,987 Speaker 16: So you have to qualify and be up to a 559 00:28:25,987 --> 00:28:28,587 Speaker 16: certain standard to race on some events, for sure. 560 00:28:29,907 --> 00:28:31,627 Speaker 2: Did you get your Mustang up to two seventy? 561 00:28:32,867 --> 00:28:36,067 Speaker 16: Yeah? It It touched two hundred and eighty once, but 562 00:28:36,307 --> 00:28:41,907 Speaker 16: that was very scary because comes along halfway down the 563 00:28:41,947 --> 00:28:44,507 Speaker 16: track and the wind gusts through a bit of a 564 00:28:44,587 --> 00:28:47,707 Speaker 16: value between the trees and you can get blown one 565 00:28:47,827 --> 00:28:49,747 Speaker 16: meter to the left if you're not careful, which is 566 00:28:49,787 --> 00:28:50,067 Speaker 16: a lot. 567 00:28:51,027 --> 00:28:52,667 Speaker 2: What's it like at Toadie. 568 00:28:53,907 --> 00:28:57,667 Speaker 16: And my car are scary, you know because mind the 569 00:28:57,747 --> 00:29:02,267 Speaker 16: nineteen sixty seven and it doesn't have the aerodynamic design 570 00:29:01,907 --> 00:29:05,387 Speaker 16: and I'm not at a class I'm not allowed aerodonnamic aid, 571 00:29:05,507 --> 00:29:07,947 Speaker 16: so you can't have air underneath the car, you know. 572 00:29:08,067 --> 00:29:10,667 Speaker 16: So my bonnet bends and half at suit and speeds, 573 00:29:11,107 --> 00:29:14,427 Speaker 16: the tires get sort of the car gets very goofy, 574 00:29:14,587 --> 00:29:17,227 Speaker 16: it gets very very light on the steering that those 575 00:29:17,307 --> 00:29:20,547 Speaker 16: in ending over two twenty for me, So yeah, it's 576 00:29:20,547 --> 00:29:21,947 Speaker 16: scary in my car. 577 00:29:22,187 --> 00:29:25,907 Speaker 2: Must be as something.

But it must be a buzz man. 582 00:29:37,627 --> 00:29:40,427 Speaker 16: Yeah, it is. I mean after one race I was 583 00:29:40,467 --> 00:29:43,347 Speaker 16: down Conrad, I do about two sixty and I could 584 00:29:43,347 --> 00:29:45,747 Speaker 16: see Jimmy Richards coming up behind me and his car. 585 00:29:46,427 --> 00:29:49,227 Speaker 16: And then just halfway down Conrad, I got the gusta 586 00:29:49,267 --> 00:29:52,667 Speaker 16: wind blew me across the track one meter. Just the 587 00:29:52,707 --> 00:29:55,547 Speaker 16: whole car that s went sideways. And later on Jimmy 588 00:29:55,547 --> 00:29:57,947 Speaker 16: came up and said, oh, thanks Joe for moving over. 589 00:29:58,027 --> 00:30:00,147 Speaker 16: I says I didn't move over him.

In the In the press conference at 730 00:37:10,467 --> 00:37:13,947 Speaker 12: the end of qualifying, he was sitting there and somebody said, 731 00:37:13,947 --> 00:37:15,387 Speaker 12: you know, if you regard you out. You know, you're 732 00:37:15,387 --> 00:37:17,987 Speaker 12: a bit of a dark horse around there. And what 733 00:37:18,187 --> 00:37:20,427 Speaker 12: he just turned around look everybody and just said, no, 734 00:37:20,587 --> 00:37:24,467 Speaker 12: we don't regard ourselves as dark horses around here. We're contenders. 735 00:37:25,107 --> 00:37:28,147 Speaker 12: And it was really great for a young guy to go, nah, 736 00:37:28,387 --> 00:37:30,587 Speaker 12: we've got to beat the faith in us and they've 737 00:37:30,627 --> 00:37:33,867 Speaker 12: been pretty quick since since they rolled out on Thursday. 738 00:37:34,387 --> 00:37:37,587 Speaker 12: So but just balancing that, our poor old Matthew Pain 739 00:37:37,787 --> 00:37:42,867 Speaker 12: was looked absolutely gutted because there's something not quite right 740 00:37:42,987 --> 00:37:45,587 Speaker 12: with the car. Because in the practices all day yesterday 741 00:37:46,387 --> 00:37:49,787 Speaker 12: he was languishing down in sort of fifteenth fastest, eighteenth 742 00:37:49,787 --> 00:37:53,187 Speaker 12: and he ended up eighteenth fastest, and he was absolutely 743 00:37:53,427 --> 00:37:57,267 Speaker 12: gutted yesterday that he missed out on the top ten shootout. 744 00:37:57,467 --> 00:38:02,707 Speaker 12: So all the drivers are fired up, mate. 745 00:38:02,067 --> 00:38:04,267 Speaker 2: Just on the top ten shoot I just just clarify 746 00:38:04,307 --> 00:38:05,867 Speaker 2: this for us, a ted I get one lap a 747 00:38:05,987 --> 00:38:08,627 Speaker 2: cheating these ten. They go from the slowest I guess 748 00:38:08,627 --> 00:38:11,707 Speaker 2: of the ten to fastest and that's Brodie Kosticki. And 749 00:38:11,747 --> 00:38:16,227 Speaker 2: that that determines grid position for the big race tomorrow. 750 00:38:15,867 --> 00:38:16,267 Speaker 19: Is that right? 751 00:38:17,187 --> 00:38:24,267 Speaker 12: Yeah? Eleven to twenty six was as locked in right 752 00:38:24,467 --> 00:38:26,947 Speaker 12: on the grid. Then those guys don't get to go 753 00:38:26,987 --> 00:38:29,387 Speaker 12: out today, you know, in the top ten shootout. And 754 00:38:29,587 --> 00:38:32,787 Speaker 12: why the drivers love the top ten shootout is that 755 00:38:32,827 --> 00:38:35,627 Speaker 12: they get the track the only time they ever get 756 00:38:35,667 --> 00:38:38,827 Speaker 12: the track to themselves. You know, they're all alone, they 757 00:38:38,867 --> 00:38:42,707 Speaker 12: have the whole place to themselves, and they absolutely relish. 758 00:38:42,747 --> 00:38:44,267 Speaker 12: I mean a lot of them want to get into 759 00:38:44,267 --> 00:38:46,667 Speaker 12: the top ten shootout so they can just blast around 760 00:38:46,747 --> 00:38:49,787 Speaker 12: here on their own. They don't have to worry about 761 00:38:49,867 --> 00:38:54,707 Speaker 12: traffic or anything else. It's just their place all to themselves. 762 00:38:55,307 --> 00:38:57,587 Speaker 2: I love that.

Joseph Parker. 815 00:41:23,147 --> 00:41:27,467 Speaker 1: After One's the only place to discuss the biggest sports 816 00:41:27,547 --> 00:41:29,707 Speaker 1: issues on and after field. 817 00:41:30,267 --> 00:41:31,267 Speaker 3: It's all on Wi. 818 00:41:31,227 --> 00:41:34,787 Speaker 1: Jons Forward with Jason Vade on your Home of Sports 819 00:41:36,187 --> 00:41:38,747 Speaker 1: US Talks one seven. 820 00:41:38,787 --> 00:41:41,787 Speaker 2: This is Weekend Sport on Jason Pine and McDonald's show producer. 821 00:41:43,627 --> 00:41:46,547 Speaker 2: Some great calls and correspondence on Bathurst Last Hour. A 822 00:41:46,667 --> 00:41:48,387 Speaker 2: couple just to mop up Pinney. 823 00:41:48,467 --> 00:41:49,387 Speaker 3: Come on, you. 824 00:41:49,387 --> 00:41:52,147 Speaker 2: Wouldn't love it Bathurst if you weren't a racing fan. Now, 825 00:41:52,227 --> 00:41:54,787 Speaker 2: this is true. This is true. And I suggested that 826 00:41:54,827 --> 00:41:56,547 Speaker 2: a lot of people might rent their place out for 827 00:41:56,627 --> 00:42:00,147 Speaker 2: a week. Must say, Poney, you'd be mad bonkers to 828 00:42:00,267 --> 00:42:03,107 Speaker 2: reach your house out to the first racing fans. There'd 829 00:42:03,107 --> 00:42:04,907 Speaker 2: be nothing left of it. I think most I think 830 00:42:04,907 --> 00:42:10,947 Speaker 2: it's moved on from the from the the Bogans that 831 00:42:11,027 --> 00:42:13,987 Speaker 2: it used to be. Just as an example of that, 832 00:42:14,627 --> 00:42:18,747 Speaker 2: I just checked prices ticket prices for Bathist Now the 833 00:42:18,827 --> 00:42:21,787 Speaker 2: cheapest ticket you can get is a paddic pass that's 834 00:42:21,827 --> 00:42:24,027 Speaker 2: forty four dollars Australian in forty four, But it doesn't 835 00:42:24,067 --> 00:42:26,507 Speaker 2: get you into the event itself. It's just basically a 836 00:42:26,547 --> 00:42:30,027 Speaker 2: back paddic as the name would suggest, where all the 837 00:42:30,107 --> 00:42:31,947 Speaker 2: cars and the garages are during the weekends. They can 838 00:42:32,027 --> 00:42:34,267 Speaker 2: wander around and you might see some drivers, you might 839 00:42:34,307 --> 00:42:36,227 Speaker 2: see the mechanics, or you see the cars, but you 840 00:42:36,347 --> 00:42:40,387 Speaker 2: don't actually see the racing itself. General admission, from what 841 00:42:40,467 --> 00:42:44,267 Speaker 2: I can see, the cheapest general admission ticket is one 842 00:42:44,347 --> 00:42:47,707 Speaker 2: hundred and twenty two Australian dollars. Now kids under twelve 843 00:42:47,707 --> 00:42:50,507 Speaker 2: are three. That's pretty good, so kids under twelve three 844 00:42:50,547 --> 00:42:53,387 Speaker 2: with a paying adult. But the cheapest general admission ticket 845 00:42:53,427 --> 00:42:55,627 Speaker 2: I think is one twenty two. And then you go 846 00:42:55,787 --> 00:43:00,067 Speaker 2: up from there reserved grand stand tickets from three hundred 847 00:43:00,067 --> 00:43:03,627 Speaker 2: and forty six. And then you get up to the 848 00:43:03,787 --> 00:43:07,267 Speaker 2: hospitality options, and there are heaps of different ones, including 849 00:43:08,227 --> 00:43:14,627 Speaker 2: the very top end premium pit suites. Now you can 850 00:43:14,867 --> 00:43:20,067 Speaker 2: entertain thirty three to zero thirty guests for the very 851 00:43:20,107 --> 00:43:23,867 Speaker 2: good price I think of fifty seven thousand, one hundred 852 00:43:23,867 --> 00:43:27,947 Speaker 2: and ten dollars, and that does not include your food 853 00:43:27,987 --> 00:43:32,307 Speaker 2: and beverage. That just gets you the space, nothing else. 854 00:43:33,107 --> 00:43:38,147 Speaker 2: Fifty seven grand for thirty guests, and that is sold out. 855 00:43:39,267 --> 00:43:43,067 Speaker 2: That particular hospitality option is sold out. In fact, many 856 00:43:43,107 --> 00:43:45,507 Speaker 2: of the top end hospit options are sold out. There's 857 00:43:45,587 --> 00:43:49,507 Speaker 2: the Concourse Villa twenty eight grand sold out, the pit 858 00:43:49,907 --> 00:43:53,507 Speaker 2: Ruf Villa twenty eight Grand sold out and many of 859 00:43:53,547 --> 00:43:55,787 Speaker 2: the other cheaper options as well. So clearly there's a 860 00:43:55,867 --> 00:43:59,307 Speaker 2: much wider audience for Bathurst and that corporate space is 861 00:43:59,347 --> 00:44:03,867 Speaker 2: one that they're moving into.

He was biscardled. How he's down, 878 00:45:11,987 --> 00:45:13,947 Speaker 3: and I'm not sure he's gonna make this count. 879 00:45:14,027 --> 00:45:16,787 Speaker 9: Nosier Curley just about he gets cracks. 880 00:45:16,827 --> 00:45:17,827 Speaker 3: Miss Corney. 881 00:45:20,107 --> 00:45:23,867 Speaker 6: Hate sight to John Parker's getting the job done. 882 00:45:24,187 --> 00:45:25,947 Speaker 3: Hoddy does it by stop it. 883 00:45:26,507 --> 00:45:28,827 Speaker 9: Latimer Curley halted. 884 00:45:28,707 --> 00:45:29,867 Speaker 12: For forty eight hours. 885 00:45:30,467 --> 00:45:34,067 Speaker 3: He gets here. It's Curdy didn't deliver too long. 886 00:45:34,667 --> 00:45:36,987 Speaker 2: That was Joseph Parker's last fight. He is with us 887 00:45:37,027 --> 00:45:40,347 Speaker 2: on Weekend Sport ahead of his next one. Joseph, thanks 888 00:45:40,387 --> 00:45:42,947 Speaker 2: for taking the time. If you win this next fight, 889 00:45:43,147 --> 00:45:47,547 Speaker 2: does that make a fight against Alexander Usik a certainty 890 00:45:47,827 --> 00:45:48,107 Speaker 2: for you? 891 00:45:48,987 --> 00:45:49,227 Speaker 10: Yeah? 892 00:45:49,427 --> 00:45:51,667 Speaker 21: You know what, it's great to have this fight locked 893 00:45:51,707 --> 00:45:54,547 Speaker 21: in for October twenty five. As a fighter, you want 894 00:45:54,587 --> 00:45:56,667 Speaker 21: to fight as often as you can, right. And I 895 00:45:56,787 --> 00:45:59,547 Speaker 21: had the fight in February against Martin McCauley, and I 896 00:45:59,627 --> 00:46:01,387 Speaker 21: thought to myself, two or three months and I should 897 00:46:01,387 --> 00:46:02,187 Speaker 21: have enough fight locked in. 898 00:46:02,467 --> 00:46:04,507 Speaker 10: And it's taken a while to get this fight locked in. 899 00:46:04,707 --> 00:46:08,027 Speaker 10: But I was waiting for and I keep waiting, keep waiting. 900 00:46:08,067 --> 00:46:09,587 Speaker 21: And I said to my team, you know what, instead 901 00:46:09,587 --> 00:46:11,227 Speaker 21: of waiting for Usick, let's just lock in the fight. 902 00:46:11,307 --> 00:46:14,067 Speaker 10: I need to get busy. Time is ticking and I want. 903 00:46:13,947 --> 00:46:17,947 Speaker 21: To get active, and so surely the winner of this fight, 904 00:46:17,987 --> 00:46:19,387 Speaker 21: should you get the chance to fight Usick. 905 00:46:19,427 --> 00:46:20,147 Speaker 10: I know Usik is. 906 00:46:20,147 --> 00:46:22,387 Speaker 21: Injured, and Usik's out at the moment and enjoying family time. 907 00:46:23,267 --> 00:46:25,947 Speaker 21: But if we can get the win over this fight 908 00:46:26,147 --> 00:46:28,667 Speaker 21: over favor Wardley, then they used to fight as next. 909 00:46:28,867 --> 00:46:29,747 Speaker 10: Surely it is next. 910 00:46:30,027 --> 00:46:33,187 Speaker 2: Surely surely, as you say, though, it's just your third 911 00:46:33,267 --> 00:46:37,107 Speaker 2: fight since you beat Deontay Wilder in December twenty twenty three, 912 00:46:37,187 --> 00:46:39,707 Speaker 2: so that's coming up two years. Would you ideally like 913 00:46:39,787 --> 00:46:40,667 Speaker 2: to fight more often? 914 00:46:41,907 --> 00:46:43,747 Speaker 10: I've made it. I've made it. 915 00:46:44,427 --> 00:46:48,347 Speaker 21: I've made the team, aware, management team, promotional team, everyone 916 00:46:49,187 --> 00:46:51,787 Speaker 21: involved in my team that I want to fight often 917 00:46:52,067 --> 00:46:53,667 Speaker 21: and I want to fight as many times as I can, 918 00:46:53,747 --> 00:46:57,787 Speaker 21: And unfortunately there hasn't been the case for me. Fighting 919 00:46:57,987 --> 00:47:00,907 Speaker 21: three to five times a year would be fantastic, but 920 00:47:00,987 --> 00:47:03,067 Speaker 21: I'm just not getting those fights and opportunities. So I'm 921 00:47:03,107 --> 00:47:05,147 Speaker 21: not sure what I need to do. I put up 922 00:47:05,147 --> 00:47:07,027 Speaker 21: my hand. I've said yes to every that have offered me. 923 00:47:07,427 --> 00:47:09,347 Speaker 21: But finally we have this fight locked in for October 924 00:47:09,387 --> 00:47:11,787 Speaker 21: twenty five, and Hopefully with this fight and a win, 925 00:47:11,907 --> 00:47:13,707 Speaker 21: we can keep the ball rolling, keep it going. 926 00:47:14,427 --> 00:47:19,147 Speaker 2: How much has your fight preparation changed throughout your career. 927 00:47:20,747 --> 00:47:23,067 Speaker 21: I had eight years in Vegas, the tremendous eight years 928 00:47:23,107 --> 00:47:26,747 Speaker 21: of Kevin Barry becoming champion of the world, defended against 929 00:47:26,827 --> 00:47:29,587 Speaker 21: Anthony Joshua unified it and I lost that fight, then 930 00:47:29,667 --> 00:47:32,627 Speaker 21: lost the instilling white and then there's a time. There's 931 00:47:32,667 --> 00:47:34,667 Speaker 21: a time when I was in Vegas, no one's taught 932 00:47:34,667 --> 00:47:36,307 Speaker 21: by the time where I sort of lost the love 933 00:47:36,387 --> 00:47:37,387 Speaker 21: and passion for boxing. 934 00:47:37,547 --> 00:47:38,227 Speaker 10: I'm not sure why. 935 00:47:38,307 --> 00:47:41,067 Speaker 21: Maybe it was just the same routine, or I pushed 936 00:47:41,107 --> 00:47:42,747 Speaker 21: harder and it wasn't getting the results that I wanted. 937 00:47:42,827 --> 00:47:45,107 Speaker 21: So I may change. And I feel like I've learned 938 00:47:45,147 --> 00:47:47,747 Speaker 21: so much along the way. I've changed trainers. I've got 939 00:47:47,827 --> 00:47:49,627 Speaker 21: a nutritionis, I got a change the conditioning train I 940 00:47:49,667 --> 00:47:53,187 Speaker 21: got a massage therapist, and I have right now, I 941 00:47:53,307 --> 00:47:55,627 Speaker 21: can honestly say that I have the best set up 942 00:47:55,747 --> 00:47:57,427 Speaker 21: that I've ever had in my whole entire life, in 943 00:47:57,507 --> 00:48:01,027 Speaker 21: my whole career, and I'm I'm excited to show that 944 00:48:01,507 --> 00:48:02,427 Speaker 21: once five time coming. 945 00:48:02,467 --> 00:48:04,467 Speaker 10: But we still got two and a half weeks to 946 00:48:04,467 --> 00:48:04,987 Speaker 10: put in work. 947 00:48:05,827 --> 00:48:07,947 Speaker 2: When you say you lost your passion for it. Was 948 00:48:07,987 --> 00:48:09,947 Speaker 2: there ever a point when you wondered whether you would 949 00:48:09,947 --> 00:48:10,467 Speaker 2: get it back? 950 00:48:12,387 --> 00:48:12,587 Speaker 10: Yeah? 951 00:48:12,707 --> 00:48:15,627 Speaker 21: Yeah, I was thinking to myself like it came a 952 00:48:15,667 --> 00:48:17,667 Speaker 21: point where I was just doing boxing just to do it, 953 00:48:18,387 --> 00:48:21,387 Speaker 21: And that's probably why I've had results where it wasn't 954 00:48:21,587 --> 00:48:23,667 Speaker 21: It wasn't the great results of getting the wins, but 955 00:48:23,707 --> 00:48:26,507 Speaker 21: it was like black luster and it wasn't really exciting 956 00:48:26,587 --> 00:48:30,347 Speaker 21: to watch. And then now that I've found what I 957 00:48:30,467 --> 00:48:33,547 Speaker 21: feel like is the perfect preparations to a fight or 958 00:48:33,627 --> 00:48:35,347 Speaker 21: perfect camp, I love it. 959 00:48:35,707 --> 00:48:38,147 Speaker 10: I love boxing. I got the passion for it. I 960 00:48:38,387 --> 00:48:40,587 Speaker 10: wake up excited every single day to train. 961 00:48:40,827 --> 00:48:42,467 Speaker 21: I look forward to the meals that we have because 962 00:48:42,467 --> 00:48:44,587 Speaker 21: we're on a meal plan, and I just can't wait 963 00:48:44,627 --> 00:48:46,867 Speaker 21: to be in the best shape come fight nighte. 964 00:48:47,387 --> 00:48:49,947 Speaker 2: I love that in the three years since you lost 965 00:48:49,987 --> 00:48:52,467 Speaker 2: to Joe Joyce, you've had six more bouts, won them all, 966 00:48:52,827 --> 00:48:54,667 Speaker 2: they often say. Sports people have said this to me 967 00:48:54,707 --> 00:48:56,787 Speaker 2: a lot. You know, you learn a lot more from 968 00:48:56,827 --> 00:48:59,347 Speaker 2: your defeats than you do from your wins. What did 969 00:48:59,427 --> 00:49:02,267 Speaker 2: you learn from from that defeat? The most you know 970 00:49:02,507 --> 00:49:04,387 Speaker 2: was that, as I say, three years ago, what did 971 00:49:04,467 --> 00:49:05,027 Speaker 2: you learn from that? 972 00:49:05,907 --> 00:49:09,227 Speaker 21: Well, from that defeat, I learned many things from defeat 973 00:49:09,227 --> 00:49:12,347 Speaker 21: to Joe Joyce. The first one I learned was don't 974 00:49:12,427 --> 00:49:14,787 Speaker 21: ever fight if your health is not right. Don't ever 975 00:49:14,867 --> 00:49:17,507 Speaker 21: fight if you're not fit to fight. Secondly, I started 976 00:49:17,547 --> 00:49:18,667 Speaker 21: asking myself questions, what. 977 00:49:18,707 --> 00:49:19,267 Speaker 10: Am I doing wrong? 978 00:49:19,307 --> 00:49:21,907 Speaker 21: I'm leaving my family and I'm traveling to England to 979 00:49:21,987 --> 00:49:24,187 Speaker 21: train for eight weeks at a time, leaving my wife 980 00:49:24,227 --> 00:49:26,307 Speaker 21: and kids at home, And how come I'm not being 981 00:49:26,507 --> 00:49:29,627 Speaker 21: getting it right, you know, making these sacrifices. So then 982 00:49:30,387 --> 00:49:32,267 Speaker 21: one thing led to the next, and then I employed 983 00:49:32,307 --> 00:49:35,907 Speaker 21: a nutritionist and then worked on strength conditioning and actually, 984 00:49:36,267 --> 00:49:39,067 Speaker 21: for like right now, I got the best balance and 985 00:49:39,147 --> 00:49:41,307 Speaker 21: I so from that fight and even though you don't 986 00:49:41,347 --> 00:49:43,267 Speaker 21: like losing fights, but from that fight I was able 987 00:49:43,347 --> 00:49:48,347 Speaker 21: to make drastic changes that I've seen be very beneficial 988 00:49:48,387 --> 00:49:49,027 Speaker 21: an in my career. 989 00:49:50,067 --> 00:49:52,307 Speaker 2: The whole Daniel Dubois thing was weird, wasn't it. You know, 990 00:49:52,427 --> 00:49:55,387 Speaker 2: you're supposed to fight him back in February he pulled out, 991 00:49:55,587 --> 00:49:58,267 Speaker 2: like call up for Martin Bacoli. You one that easily? 992 00:49:58,947 --> 00:50:02,027 Speaker 2: How do you reflect back on that, you know, incident 993 00:50:02,147 --> 00:50:02,827 Speaker 2: in your career? 994 00:50:03,507 --> 00:50:05,867 Speaker 21: You know what that I was very much looking forward 995 00:50:05,867 --> 00:50:08,307 Speaker 21: to my goal a year before that was I am 996 00:50:08,387 --> 00:50:10,627 Speaker 21: going to chase the IVF Championship of the world, and 997 00:50:10,747 --> 00:50:12,787 Speaker 21: that's the goal I'm going to take right and we're 998 00:50:12,947 --> 00:50:15,307 Speaker 21: right there. We had it right there in our hands, 999 00:50:15,387 --> 00:50:17,067 Speaker 21: r and it got taken away from us two days 1000 00:50:17,107 --> 00:50:19,667 Speaker 21: before the fight. Again, there's no one to blame. He 1001 00:50:19,747 --> 00:50:22,707 Speaker 21: got sick and medical examiners talk him out of the fight, 1002 00:50:23,427 --> 00:50:25,667 Speaker 21: and then Martin McCauley stepped in got that win. But 1003 00:50:25,827 --> 00:50:28,467 Speaker 21: still I'm not satisfied. Like you know, dall In Duois 1004 00:50:28,907 --> 00:50:30,467 Speaker 21: pulled out of that fight. They went to fight U 1005 00:50:30,507 --> 00:50:33,507 Speaker 21: six for all the belts. So there's a lot of 1006 00:50:33,507 --> 00:50:35,867 Speaker 21: things happening in boxing where even though you're getting good results, 1007 00:50:35,867 --> 00:50:37,147 Speaker 21: and even though you're putting in the work and you 1008 00:50:37,267 --> 00:50:40,747 Speaker 21: believe and you trust the process, but there's so many 1009 00:50:40,827 --> 00:50:44,947 Speaker 21: other things against you, promoters or the like. You know, promoters, 1010 00:50:45,107 --> 00:50:47,107 Speaker 21: if you're not a favorite, if you're not one of 1011 00:50:47,147 --> 00:50:48,867 Speaker 21: the favorite fighters, and if you're not a big name, 1012 00:50:49,307 --> 00:50:52,187 Speaker 21: they'd rather give opportunities to their own guys. 1013 00:50:52,347 --> 00:50:54,107 Speaker 10: So even though so let's. 1014 00:50:54,067 --> 00:50:56,347 Speaker 21: We're fighting against the opponent, we're fighting against sometimes the 1015 00:50:56,387 --> 00:50:58,387 Speaker 21: promoted to fight against everyone. But you know what, we 1016 00:50:58,507 --> 00:51:02,347 Speaker 21: will get there because I remained strong and I you know, 1017 00:51:02,427 --> 00:51:05,227 Speaker 21: I trusted my ability and I just love what I'm doing. 1018 00:51:05,267 --> 00:51:07,787 Speaker 2: Now, how do match up against Abeo Wardley? 1019 00:51:10,347 --> 00:51:13,827 Speaker 21: He comes with power, He's he's gotten a lot of 1020 00:51:13,947 --> 00:51:16,347 Speaker 21: experience along the way with the pressure face he's had, 1021 00:51:16,387 --> 00:51:19,507 Speaker 21: and every time he's he has stepped up in levels, 1022 00:51:19,947 --> 00:51:21,547 Speaker 21: he's been able to find a way to win. But 1023 00:51:21,667 --> 00:51:24,227 Speaker 21: I feel like with this fight, he's stepped up a 1024 00:51:24,307 --> 00:51:27,987 Speaker 21: level too far. You know, he is mandatory number one 1025 00:51:28,147 --> 00:51:31,867 Speaker 21: in the WBA and I'm mandatory number number one interim 1026 00:51:31,947 --> 00:51:34,787 Speaker 21: Champion WBO. But I do feel like with the experience 1027 00:51:34,867 --> 00:51:37,507 Speaker 21: that I have and I know he possesses power. But 1028 00:51:37,667 --> 00:51:39,827 Speaker 21: like I say to all the other fighters that I've fought, like, 1029 00:51:39,947 --> 00:51:40,387 Speaker 21: bring it on. 1030 00:51:41,947 --> 00:51:44,747 Speaker 2: Yeah, eighteen of us nineteen wins by knockout. So does 1031 00:51:44,787 --> 00:51:47,547 Speaker 2: it suit you to take the fight deeper? I mean 1032 00:51:47,587 --> 00:51:49,987 Speaker 2: you hardly even knocked out I think once maybe in 1033 00:51:50,027 --> 00:51:52,547 Speaker 2: your whole career. Does it suit you to take it deep? 1034 00:51:53,787 --> 00:51:53,907 Speaker 9: Uh? 1035 00:51:54,067 --> 00:51:55,587 Speaker 21: You know what if I could get a knockout in 1036 00:51:55,627 --> 00:51:59,067 Speaker 21: the first round, Oh, that'll be sensational. 1037 00:51:58,987 --> 00:52:01,187 Speaker 10: That'll be besten, that'll be the best. 1038 00:52:01,307 --> 00:52:03,707 Speaker 21: But I know, I know with this guy, I'm not 1039 00:52:03,827 --> 00:52:06,627 Speaker 21: underestimating him in any sense, and I'm taking him so 1040 00:52:06,707 --> 00:52:09,307 Speaker 21: seriously that I've done it like, I don't think there's 1041 00:52:09,347 --> 00:52:10,987 Speaker 21: any much more that I could do in this camp. 1042 00:52:11,347 --> 00:52:13,147 Speaker 21: There's nothing more that I could do to be as 1043 00:52:13,307 --> 00:52:16,347 Speaker 21: as prepared as I'm going to be, And so I am. 1044 00:52:16,667 --> 00:52:19,267 Speaker 21: I'm treating him like he he's the USAK for me, 1045 00:52:19,387 --> 00:52:22,467 Speaker 21: because there's no point thinking about USA or anyone else 1046 00:52:23,027 --> 00:52:24,307 Speaker 21: if I don't get passed through. 1047 00:52:25,267 --> 00:52:26,907 Speaker 10: Fabye Waldley and. 1048 00:52:27,227 --> 00:52:29,027 Speaker 2: I was just checking. I mean, we've been watching you 1049 00:52:29,387 --> 00:52:32,547 Speaker 2: fight professionally since twenty twelve. Man, it seems like an 1050 00:52:32,587 --> 00:52:35,067 Speaker 2: awfully long time ago. And you know, I mean that's 1051 00:52:35,107 --> 00:52:40,267 Speaker 2: a that is a spectacularly long career. How different a 1052 00:52:40,387 --> 00:52:43,467 Speaker 2: fighter are you now from the Joe Parker we saw 1053 00:52:43,467 --> 00:52:46,507 Speaker 2: a fight for the first time in July of twenty twelve. 1054 00:52:46,547 --> 00:52:49,427 Speaker 21: There, Well, I don't even I don't even know where 1055 00:52:49,467 --> 00:52:53,067 Speaker 21: to start in comparison like the fighter that I am now, 1056 00:52:53,147 --> 00:52:56,027 Speaker 21: not even just the fighter, but the person now I'm 1057 00:52:56,067 --> 00:52:58,587 Speaker 21: a father. Like if I look back at that younger, 1058 00:52:59,747 --> 00:53:02,587 Speaker 21: like the younger person or the younger my younger self, 1059 00:53:03,267 --> 00:53:05,427 Speaker 21: I wouldn't even know where to start or what to 1060 00:53:05,507 --> 00:53:07,747 Speaker 21: say or what's you know what I mean? So totally 1061 00:53:07,867 --> 00:53:11,467 Speaker 21: different and I get at this very moment in time, 1062 00:53:11,547 --> 00:53:13,507 Speaker 21: I love life and they got the best. 1063 00:53:13,907 --> 00:53:15,467 Speaker 10: I got the best of both worlds. I got my 1064 00:53:15,907 --> 00:53:16,707 Speaker 10: training team. 1065 00:53:16,547 --> 00:53:21,547 Speaker 21: Here, my coaches besides therapist, camera man, training partners, spiring partners. 1066 00:53:21,587 --> 00:53:24,227 Speaker 21: But then I also have my family living five or 1067 00:53:24,227 --> 00:53:26,067 Speaker 21: six minutes up the road, and do you know what 1068 00:53:26,187 --> 00:53:27,987 Speaker 21: that brings me joy? To be able to see them 1069 00:53:28,027 --> 00:53:30,507 Speaker 21: every single day after a hard day, I just go 1070 00:53:30,667 --> 00:53:33,427 Speaker 21: to where they're staying and just see the kids, and 1071 00:53:33,427 --> 00:53:36,067 Speaker 21: they're so excited to see me and I. Time goes 1072 00:53:36,147 --> 00:53:38,547 Speaker 21: so fast, not only in boxing career, but in life, 1073 00:53:38,987 --> 00:53:40,787 Speaker 21: So you got to make the most of every single day. 1074 00:53:41,307 --> 00:53:43,627 Speaker 2: Sounds like you're in a brilliant place, Joseph. Chet's got 1075 00:53:43,667 --> 00:53:45,387 Speaker 2: to get the chance to catch up made These next 1076 00:53:45,427 --> 00:53:47,387 Speaker 2: two weeks can't fly by quick enough, I'm sure for 1077 00:53:47,467 --> 00:53:49,627 Speaker 2: you and for us as we get forward to get 1078 00:53:49,907 --> 00:53:52,907 Speaker 2: rid of watch you fight.

Joseph 1082 00:53:58,507 --> 00:54:02,067 Speaker 2: Parker there from his training base in the UK ahead 1083 00:54:02,187 --> 00:54:05,027 Speaker 2: of his next fight, which is two weeks away. The 1084 00:54:05,107 --> 00:54:07,787 Speaker 2: morning here in New Zealand Sunday, October twenty sixth of 1085 00:54:07,827 --> 00:54:12,667 Speaker 2: that label weekend Sunday morning estimated ring walkers around nine 1086 00:54:12,827 --> 00:54:16,507 Speaker 2: forty five am New Zealand times, so it's fairly civilized 1087 00:54:16,547 --> 00:54:19,147 Speaker 2: time to watch Joseph Parker's next fight live and exclusive 1088 00:54:19,227 --> 00:54:23,787 Speaker 2: on Dezone, up against Fabio Wardley. Look, I don't know. 1089 00:54:23,907 --> 00:54:25,747 Speaker 2: I've sort of given up trying to work out how 1090 00:54:25,787 --> 00:54:29,347 Speaker 2: boxing works. It's not as straightforward as you could tell 1091 00:54:29,427 --> 00:54:32,507 Speaker 2: from Joseph Parker there that the winner of this fight 1092 00:54:32,627 --> 00:54:36,987 Speaker 2: will definitely fight Alexander. You sick. It doesn't seem to 1093 00:54:37,067 --> 00:54:39,987 Speaker 2: work that way. Even though you hear that, you know 1094 00:54:40,187 --> 00:54:43,667 Speaker 2: the winner will get the mandatory position to fight him. 1095 00:54:44,107 --> 00:54:49,067 Speaker 2: That sounds pretty official, doesn't it. But look, I, like 1096 00:54:49,107 --> 00:54:50,907 Speaker 2: I say, I've given up trying to work out whether 1097 00:54:51,507 --> 00:54:53,867 Speaker 2: whether that will actually happen. I guess all we do 1098 00:54:54,067 --> 00:54:57,827 Speaker 2: know is that Joseph is fighting Fairbear Wardley in a 1099 00:54:57,867 --> 00:54:59,667 Speaker 2: couple of weeks, and if he wins that it'd have 1100 00:54:59,787 --> 00:55:02,827 Speaker 2: to be near the front of the queue. Wouldn't he 1101 00:55:03,467 --> 00:55:06,067 Speaker 2: near the front of the queue. So yeah, we look 1102 00:55:06,067 --> 00:55:09,787 Speaker 2: forward to that coming up one at twenty one. It 1103 00:55:09,867 --> 00:55:11,427 Speaker 2: is if you can Shedney light on that, that'd be 1104 00:55:11,467 --> 00:55:14,987 Speaker 2: great boxing fans, boxing for Shnado's educate us, you know, 1105 00:55:15,147 --> 00:55:19,987 Speaker 2: is this where we're headed? And also I think says 1106 00:55:20,027 --> 00:55:21,747 Speaker 2: a lot about Joseph Parker, you know, because he had 1107 00:55:21,787 --> 00:55:25,267 Speaker 2: that loss to Joe Joyce off the back a few 1108 00:55:25,347 --> 00:55:28,907 Speaker 2: years earlier. If he lost consecutive fights and often in 1109 00:55:29,067 --> 00:55:31,467 Speaker 2: you know this this game, from what I can see, 1110 00:55:32,307 --> 00:55:37,467 Speaker 2: a loss is a really quite a significant dent to 1111 00:55:37,587 --> 00:55:39,987 Speaker 2: your chances of ever getting back towards the top again. 1112 00:55:41,107 --> 00:55:43,507 Speaker 2: And Joseph Parkers lost three fights, but here he is 1113 00:55:44,067 --> 00:55:50,347 Speaker 2: still going and depending on what happens with an opportunity 1114 00:55:50,387 --> 00:55:52,907 Speaker 2: perhaps to have another crack at it to fight you 1115 00:55:53,027 --> 00:55:59,467 Speaker 2: sick for the undisputed World heavyweight championship. So a triumph 1116 00:55:59,587 --> 00:56:05,427 Speaker 2: of resilience, perseverance and bouncing back from disappointment from Joe Parker. Anyway, 1117 00:56:05,427 --> 00:56:07,187 Speaker 2: if you can Shouldney light on this be great to 1118 00:56:07,227 --> 00:56:08,827 Speaker 2: hear from you. Oh eight hundred and eighty ten eighty 1119 00:56:08,907 --> 00:56:11,467 Speaker 2: nineteen nine two on Text one twenty two on News Talks, 1120 00:56:11,467 --> 00:56:13,347 Speaker 2: hed bet this is we can't sport. We're back in 1121 00:56:13,387 --> 00:56:13,707 Speaker 2: a moment. 1122 00:56:14,627 --> 00:56:18,147 Speaker 1: The voice of Sport on your Home of Sport Weekend 1123 00:56:18,267 --> 00:56:22,107 Speaker 1: Sport with Jason Vane and GJ. Gun Homes New Zealand's 1124 00:56:22,147 --> 00:56:23,267 Speaker 1: most trusted own builder. 1125 00:56:23,387 --> 00:56:26,227 Speaker 2: News Talks a B one twenty five on News Talks 1126 00:56:26,267 --> 00:56:27,387 Speaker 2: Here Bigoday, Steve. 1127 00:56:28,867 --> 00:56:32,227 Speaker 16: Good Afternoon, Piney. Hey, I listened to you every Saturday, 1128 00:56:32,307 --> 00:56:35,947 Speaker 16: but I've never run under my first time because I 1129 00:56:36,107 --> 00:56:38,107 Speaker 16: want to make you a bit of our ice cream. 1130 00:56:38,227 --> 00:56:40,987 Speaker 16: This is what I think is going to happen. Parker 1131 00:56:41,627 --> 00:56:44,267 Speaker 16: is the most dangerous guy in the division. Nobody wants 1132 00:56:44,307 --> 00:56:46,507 Speaker 16: to fight him. He can't even buy a fight. That's 1133 00:56:46,547 --> 00:56:49,987 Speaker 16: why Duboy pretended to be sick. That's why Usik is 1134 00:56:50,067 --> 00:56:52,827 Speaker 16: saying injured that they don't want to fight him. This 1135 00:56:52,987 --> 00:56:55,427 Speaker 16: is what I think USK is going to do. He's 1136 00:56:55,467 --> 00:56:58,347 Speaker 16: going to drop the WBO so he doesn't have to 1137 00:56:58,427 --> 00:57:01,467 Speaker 16: fight Parker. He's going to have one last big payday, 1138 00:57:01,867 --> 00:57:04,907 Speaker 16: and I think it's going to be against Tyson Fury. 1139 00:57:04,987 --> 00:57:07,467 Speaker 16: I think they're going to settle with one ball, because 1140 00:57:08,067 --> 00:57:11,507 Speaker 16: after Usik, the second biggest fan base in the world 1141 00:57:12,027 --> 00:57:16,347 Speaker 16: is Tyson Fury. Then, when we'll lose, I think Usk's 1142 00:57:16,347 --> 00:57:21,867 Speaker 16: gonna retire. I think Parker is then gonna fight, and 1143 00:57:22,027 --> 00:57:24,467 Speaker 16: I think it's gonna be the fight he doesn't want. 1144 00:57:24,547 --> 00:57:27,747 Speaker 16: It's gonna be against Fury because once the game, it's 1145 00:57:27,867 --> 00:57:30,627 Speaker 16: all got to do with money. This is show business, 1146 00:57:30,787 --> 00:57:34,547 Speaker 16: this is boxing business. And all of that fan base 1147 00:57:34,947 --> 00:57:38,947 Speaker 16: of Usik, they hate Fury, and they're all gonna go 1148 00:57:39,067 --> 00:57:42,947 Speaker 16: over to the Justice for Joseph, Justice for Joseph our 1149 00:57:43,067 --> 00:57:46,307 Speaker 16: fan base, and it's gonna be big. It could even 1150 00:57:46,347 --> 00:57:49,707 Speaker 16: be the biggest, Iban thinking fifty seventy five, even over 1151 00:57:49,787 --> 00:57:54,187 Speaker 16: one hundred million, because it's the fight all the fans want, 1152 00:57:54,347 --> 00:57:57,667 Speaker 16: and that's why the Saudis will back it. You go 1153 00:57:57,827 --> 00:58:01,347 Speaker 16: on to any YouTube boxing channel, doesn't matter what it is, 1154 00:58:01,747 --> 00:58:07,347 Speaker 16: CounterPunch boxing, proper boxing boxing. Today, for every every comment 1155 00:58:07,507 --> 00:58:11,067 Speaker 16: that is Usik will beat Parker, you're talking half a 1156 00:58:11,187 --> 00:58:14,707 Speaker 16: dozen plus comments that say no, Parker will beat us. 1157 00:58:14,867 --> 00:58:17,867 Speaker 16: He's the only one in the division that can beat usk. 1158 00:58:17,987 --> 00:58:21,227 Speaker 16: I mean WBO, Heaven at number one, all the other 1159 00:58:21,347 --> 00:58:24,307 Speaker 16: three sanctioning bodies, Heaven at at least two or three, 1160 00:58:24,667 --> 00:58:28,307 Speaker 16: including the rooms. Yes, nobody wants to fight him, So 1161 00:58:28,467 --> 00:58:30,427 Speaker 16: I think that's what's going to happen. I'm gonna beat 1162 00:58:30,467 --> 00:58:31,987 Speaker 16: you or ice cream, Okay. 1163 00:58:34,027 --> 00:58:36,787 Speaker 2: Steve I love this. I'm so pleased you've called for 1164 00:58:36,907 --> 00:58:39,707 Speaker 2: the first time. So okay, So just to recap here, 1165 00:58:40,267 --> 00:58:42,227 Speaker 2: So you don't think Parker will ever fight. 1166 00:58:42,187 --> 00:58:46,187 Speaker 16: You sick, No, Usk doesn't want to fight him. Look, 1167 00:58:46,227 --> 00:58:49,547 Speaker 16: here's the thing he's saying, he's injured. Right, Well, what's 1168 00:58:49,587 --> 00:58:53,067 Speaker 16: that got to do with entering into negotiations. You can 1169 00:58:53,147 --> 00:58:57,307 Speaker 16: still enter into a negotiation right as soon as you are. Well, 1170 00:58:57,867 --> 00:59:00,027 Speaker 16: we're gonna step the date, but we'll sign it and 1171 00:59:00,147 --> 00:59:04,387 Speaker 16: now we'll lock it in. Now, nobody wants to fight Parker. Nobody. 1172 00:59:04,667 --> 00:59:06,627 Speaker 16: You take a look at all the guys they have 1173 00:59:06,707 --> 00:59:09,867 Speaker 16: said they want to fight Parker. But then the people 1174 00:59:10,027 --> 00:59:14,867 Speaker 16: pulled out. When Daniel Dubois pretended to be sick. Lawrence 1175 00:59:14,907 --> 00:59:17,667 Speaker 16: the Coley said that he'll step in, but as people said, no, 1176 00:59:17,947 --> 00:59:21,267 Speaker 16: you won't. Same as who was it? Was it a 1177 00:59:21,387 --> 00:59:24,427 Speaker 16: jet Cuby l for the vacant I think it was 1178 00:59:24,507 --> 00:59:28,467 Speaker 16: the Ivys. He was calling Parker out. But then when 1179 00:59:28,587 --> 00:59:31,227 Speaker 16: the contract, when the offer was put on the table, 1180 00:59:31,507 --> 00:59:33,307 Speaker 16: all of a sudden he didn't want to sign it. 1181 00:59:33,427 --> 00:59:36,707 Speaker 16: It was THEIRS clause in that clause. All of a sudden, 1182 00:59:36,867 --> 00:59:40,187 Speaker 16: he's changing his mind. You were the one calling come out, 1183 00:59:40,947 --> 00:59:43,467 Speaker 16: and now all of a sudden, he won't fight. G Man, 1184 00:59:43,547 --> 00:59:45,867 Speaker 16: make up your mind. Now, nobody wants to fight Parker. 1185 00:59:46,147 --> 00:59:49,307 Speaker 16: He's the most dangerous guy. And I'm not just being parochial. 1186 00:59:49,707 --> 00:59:52,227 Speaker 16: It's because you just take a look at him now. 1187 00:59:52,667 --> 00:59:55,227 Speaker 16: You know it was since he spent there two years 1188 00:59:55,307 --> 01:00:00,347 Speaker 16: with Tyson Fury over in Ireland. And you know Andy 1189 01:00:00,467 --> 01:00:04,747 Speaker 16: Lee that's his trainer, Tyson Fury's cousin, and George Lockhart 1190 01:00:04,867 --> 01:00:09,947 Speaker 16: that used to be Fury nutritions. They saw in Parker 1191 01:00:10,547 --> 01:00:14,427 Speaker 16: what every other fighter in the division seats. He is 1192 01:00:14,787 --> 01:00:18,907 Speaker 16: just getting better and better with time. Won't fight in me. 1193 01:00:19,267 --> 01:00:22,827 Speaker 16: That's why I'm not sure in myself. That's why I'm 1194 01:00:22,867 --> 01:00:24,107 Speaker 16: willing to better ice cream. 1195 01:00:25,027 --> 01:00:26,827 Speaker 2: I feel like giving it to you anyway, Steve the 1196 01:00:26,907 --> 01:00:29,347 Speaker 2: ice cream.

Day is whether you're on the board the 1233 01:02:34,987 --> 01:02:37,867 Speaker 2: white ferns with your first wen't how much is there 1234 01:02:37,907 --> 01:02:40,227 Speaker 2: a bit of relief mixed in with your satisfaction of 1235 01:02:40,827 --> 01:02:42,747 Speaker 2: a good winner for Bangladesh tonight. 1236 01:02:43,427 --> 01:02:43,627 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1237 01:02:43,667 --> 01:02:45,587 Speaker 23: It's always a good start, isn't it to finally be 1238 01:02:45,667 --> 01:02:46,107 Speaker 23: on the board. 1239 01:02:46,147 --> 01:02:49,507 Speaker 24: And obviously those first two games were disappointing because I 1240 01:02:49,547 --> 01:02:51,747 Speaker 24: feel like, you know, we had a lot of good 1241 01:02:52,267 --> 01:02:54,747 Speaker 24: or positive things that we did well and it was just, yeah, 1242 01:02:54,747 --> 01:02:56,947 Speaker 24: we didn't get that full performance. But today I felt 1243 01:02:56,987 --> 01:02:58,827 Speaker 24: like we actually had a bit more of a full performance. 1244 01:02:58,867 --> 01:03:00,747 Speaker 24: So it was, yeah, very satisfying and I think there's 1245 01:03:00,747 --> 01:03:02,267 Speaker 24: a lot of happy people in our group at the moment. 1246 01:03:02,547 --> 01:03:04,587 Speaker 2: You came in to join Sophie Divine at thirty eight 1247 01:03:04,667 --> 01:03:07,027 Speaker 2: for three after winning the toss and adding first. So 1248 01:03:07,227 --> 01:03:09,747 Speaker 2: when you arrived what sort of conversations were you having 1249 01:03:09,787 --> 01:03:10,267 Speaker 2: at that time? 1250 01:03:11,867 --> 01:03:15,707 Speaker 24: Cricket it's a long game, so basically just a better 1251 01:03:15,787 --> 01:03:18,147 Speaker 24: long time. So we've kind of had those chats of 1252 01:03:18,147 --> 01:03:20,867 Speaker 24: the last couple of days, especially after that South African 1253 01:03:20,947 --> 01:03:24,867 Speaker 24: game and just when you're over in India with slower wickets, 1254 01:03:25,667 --> 01:03:28,587 Speaker 24: you know, taking those ones or even those twos for 1255 01:03:28,627 --> 01:03:30,427 Speaker 24: a long period of time actually sets up the game 1256 01:03:30,467 --> 01:03:34,347 Speaker 24: quite nicely. And obviously Sophie and I we're kind of 1257 01:03:34,387 --> 01:03:36,547 Speaker 24: in that position today where that's the role we kind 1258 01:03:36,587 --> 01:03:37,107 Speaker 24: of had to take. 1259 01:03:37,147 --> 01:03:40,587 Speaker 23: And we did say at one point and our innings. 1260 01:03:40,187 --> 01:03:42,187 Speaker 24: Like that's actually really hard because both of us do 1261 01:03:42,387 --> 01:03:45,507 Speaker 24: like to play shots, and we actually had to, yeah, 1262 01:03:46,067 --> 01:03:48,987 Speaker 24: mentally try and hold back to a point and just 1263 01:03:49,507 --> 01:03:51,347 Speaker 24: rotate that strike and take it deep. 1264 01:03:51,707 --> 01:03:53,867 Speaker 2: So betting with Sophie Divine, I mean, one of our greats. 1265 01:03:54,027 --> 01:03:57,027 Speaker 2: What's it like out there? Batting with Sophie Divine? 1266 01:03:59,587 --> 01:04:00,427 Speaker 23: Very calm? 1267 01:04:00,667 --> 01:04:03,907 Speaker 24: I think she's you know, quite a you know when 1268 01:04:03,947 --> 01:04:06,667 Speaker 24: you're playing that mini mattress for New Zealand. I don't 1269 01:04:06,667 --> 01:04:09,147 Speaker 24: know how I suppose in her mind how things are 1270 01:04:09,187 --> 01:04:10,827 Speaker 24: going to go. And the biggest thing that I've enjoyed 1271 01:04:10,827 --> 01:04:12,387 Speaker 24: over the last couple of games that I've been able 1272 01:04:12,387 --> 01:04:14,147 Speaker 24: to bat with her is just how simple she keeps it. 1273 01:04:14,227 --> 01:04:16,707 Speaker 24: And it kind of works for me as well, because, yeah, 1274 01:04:16,707 --> 01:04:18,907 Speaker 24: I don't try and overcomplicate too much, and half the 1275 01:04:18,947 --> 01:04:20,547 Speaker 24: time what we talk about in the middle is just 1276 01:04:20,667 --> 01:04:25,507 Speaker 24: watchable or you know, we've still got you know, fifteen 1277 01:04:25,547 --> 01:04:27,387 Speaker 24: overs to the fortieth mark or something on those kind 1278 01:04:27,427 --> 01:04:30,147 Speaker 24: of lines. So it's never too heavy, I suppose, and 1279 01:04:30,947 --> 01:04:34,027 Speaker 24: we're very different players, so it's never too technical. It's 1280 01:04:34,107 --> 01:04:36,947 Speaker 24: very simple, so it's actually really enjoyable. And the biggest 1281 01:04:36,947 --> 01:04:40,547 Speaker 24: thing today was just that mental fatigue and trying to 1282 01:04:40,667 --> 01:04:42,947 Speaker 24: make sure that we were both all right and checking 1283 01:04:42,987 --> 01:04:45,267 Speaker 24: in with each other. And then later on that physical 1284 01:04:45,387 --> 01:04:48,587 Speaker 24: heat fatigue head and kind of came in and that 1285 01:04:48,707 --> 01:04:51,707 Speaker 24: was kind of a different conversation, but no, overall, Sophie's yeah, 1286 01:04:51,747 --> 01:04:52,387 Speaker 24: really good to bat with. 1287 01:04:52,667 --> 01:04:55,347 Speaker 2: So different innings from you today then, compared to the 1288 01:04:55,707 --> 01:04:58,467 Speaker 2: innings against South Africa the other day, forty five off 1289 01:04:58,507 --> 01:05:00,827 Speaker 2: thirty seven. You got twenty eight against Australia, so one 1290 01:05:00,907 --> 01:05:03,507 Speaker 2: hundred and forty two runs at an average of forty 1291 01:05:03,587 --> 01:05:05,907 Speaker 2: seven point three three. So do you feel like you're 1292 01:05:05,907 --> 01:05:08,947 Speaker 2: betting well? Are you happy with the way you're betting? Yeah? 1293 01:05:09,027 --> 01:05:11,667 Speaker 23: Yeah, oh yeah, I'm happy with the way I'm betting. 1294 01:05:11,667 --> 01:05:13,547 Speaker 24: I'm probably just more fustraial with the way I'm getting 1295 01:05:13,547 --> 01:05:16,667 Speaker 24: out because I think I've gotten out playing the same 1296 01:05:16,747 --> 01:05:19,227 Speaker 24: shot in all three games, so that probably a sign 1297 01:05:19,267 --> 01:05:21,427 Speaker 24: I'm not really learning too quick. But at the same time, 1298 01:05:21,467 --> 01:05:24,267 Speaker 24: I'm heading runs off the same shot as well, so 1299 01:05:24,307 --> 01:05:26,747 Speaker 24: it's like a very Yeah, there's a balance there, and 1300 01:05:26,947 --> 01:05:29,027 Speaker 24: I just might need to put this slog sweep away 1301 01:05:29,027 --> 01:05:29,947 Speaker 24: for a certain linked. 1302 01:05:29,707 --> 01:05:30,067 Speaker 2: Ball, but. 1303 01:05:31,627 --> 01:05:33,667 Speaker 23: You know, I'm really enjoying it and I think they're cool. 1304 01:05:33,707 --> 01:05:35,827 Speaker 24: Thing about these three games that I've played, I've had 1305 01:05:35,867 --> 01:05:37,947 Speaker 24: to come in and maybe play a little bit differently, 1306 01:05:38,067 --> 01:05:40,267 Speaker 24: And the biggest thing that I've kind of wanted to 1307 01:05:40,347 --> 01:05:42,467 Speaker 24: come into the World Cup was trying to adapt as 1308 01:05:42,507 --> 01:05:44,427 Speaker 24: quickly as possible, and I think I have been doing 1309 01:05:44,467 --> 01:05:46,507 Speaker 24: that quite well, and it's just yeah, trusting what I 1310 01:05:46,587 --> 01:05:49,627 Speaker 24: am doing and been able to stick with that throughout 1311 01:05:49,627 --> 01:05:50,267 Speaker 24: the whole World Cup. 1312 01:05:50,787 --> 01:05:53,627 Speaker 2: You've betted at four, five, six, and seven for New 1313 01:05:53,707 --> 01:05:57,547 Speaker 2: Zealand during your fifty over career. Number five is number five? 1314 01:05:57,627 --> 01:05:59,027 Speaker 2: Is where you are at the moment? Is that your 1315 01:05:59,067 --> 01:06:00,707 Speaker 2: best time? Do you reckon? You found a natural home 1316 01:06:00,787 --> 01:06:02,147 Speaker 2: there in fifty over cricket. 1317 01:06:02,187 --> 01:06:05,267 Speaker 24: Batting at five an interesting one because I feel like 1318 01:06:05,507 --> 01:06:08,227 Speaker 24: when you're fishing in the order, you know you can 1319 01:06:08,267 --> 01:06:12,587 Speaker 24: bat four, five, six or seven, and the I suppose 1320 01:06:12,627 --> 01:06:14,467 Speaker 24: the role you have to play could be completely different 1321 01:06:14,467 --> 01:06:16,507 Speaker 24: no matter where you are. So you know, coming in 1322 01:06:16,547 --> 01:06:17,947 Speaker 24: at five, I could be in at the tenth ove 1323 01:06:17,987 --> 01:06:19,587 Speaker 24: I could also be at the fortieth, but you could 1324 01:06:19,587 --> 01:06:21,907 Speaker 24: be in the same kind of situation betting for six 1325 01:06:22,067 --> 01:06:25,027 Speaker 24: or seven. So the biggest thing for me, it's nothing 1326 01:06:25,067 --> 01:06:27,907 Speaker 24: really changes. I seem to have a home at five 1327 01:06:27,987 --> 01:06:31,307 Speaker 24: at the moment, but yeah, not two fays. At the 1328 01:06:31,387 --> 01:06:32,787 Speaker 24: end of the day, I just watched the ball and 1329 01:06:32,867 --> 01:06:34,907 Speaker 24: try and bat and put a team in a position 1330 01:06:34,987 --> 01:06:35,227 Speaker 24: to win. 1331 01:06:35,627 --> 01:06:38,347 Speaker 2: And you also today brought up one thousand runs in 1332 01:06:38,467 --> 01:06:40,987 Speaker 2: ODII cricket for New Zealand. Did you know you were 1333 01:06:40,987 --> 01:06:42,147 Speaker 2: approaching that milestone? 1334 01:06:43,347 --> 01:06:45,267 Speaker 24: I came up on the screen when I was waiting 1335 01:06:45,347 --> 01:06:47,227 Speaker 24: to bat and Maddie Green was like, oh, you could 1336 01:06:47,267 --> 01:06:49,707 Speaker 24: get that today. So yeah, that was the only reason 1337 01:06:49,707 --> 01:06:51,747 Speaker 24: I knew because I sec or the World Cup kind 1338 01:06:51,747 --> 01:06:54,707 Speaker 24: of have those milestones on there on the screen at 1339 01:06:54,747 --> 01:06:56,507 Speaker 24: times during the match. But other than that, no, I'm 1340 01:06:56,547 --> 01:06:57,707 Speaker 24: definitely not a stets person. 1341 01:06:57,987 --> 01:07:00,587 Speaker 2: All right, Well, I mean, well it's a nice one 1342 01:07:00,627 --> 01:07:02,947 Speaker 2: to tick off anyway, and you just continue batting and 1343 01:07:03,027 --> 01:07:06,187 Speaker 2: see what else comes your way. Hey, bowling wise three 1344 01:07:06,347 --> 01:07:08,587 Speaker 2: we could each for Jess Kerr and Lea to who 1345 01:07:08,707 --> 01:07:10,547 Speaker 2: can you tell us about their bowling tonight? 1346 01:07:11,827 --> 01:07:14,107 Speaker 24: Yeah, I thought even Rocco as well. The way that 1347 01:07:14,347 --> 01:07:16,987 Speaker 24: they bowled on that pitch. They keep the really simple 1348 01:07:17,067 --> 01:07:18,747 Speaker 24: and just hit that hard length that hit the top 1349 01:07:18,747 --> 01:07:21,027 Speaker 24: of the bales. And that's the biggest thing that we've 1350 01:07:21,067 --> 01:07:22,747 Speaker 24: kind of been talking about as a group over the 1351 01:07:22,827 --> 01:07:24,667 Speaker 24: last couple of days from a bowling point of view. 1352 01:07:24,787 --> 01:07:28,187 Speaker 24: It's just keeping it simple, as keeping it as simple 1353 01:07:28,187 --> 01:07:31,027 Speaker 24: as possible and just being boring. And I think we've 1354 01:07:31,067 --> 01:07:32,867 Speaker 24: seen probably I think we might have been the eleventh 1355 01:07:32,947 --> 01:07:34,867 Speaker 24: match of the World Cup all ever matches. When the 1356 01:07:34,947 --> 01:07:36,707 Speaker 24: ball is actually on the stumps at that good length, 1357 01:07:36,747 --> 01:07:38,947 Speaker 24: it's very hard to play and it's just trying to 1358 01:07:38,987 --> 01:07:40,627 Speaker 24: do that for a long period of time, and I 1359 01:07:40,707 --> 01:07:43,307 Speaker 24: thought our pace bowling group really nailed that today. 1360 01:07:44,067 --> 01:07:44,867 Speaker 23: And yeah, Leah and. 1361 01:07:45,027 --> 01:07:46,787 Speaker 24: Jess were fortunate to get a few wickets, but I 1362 01:07:46,827 --> 01:07:49,467 Speaker 24: thought the other way, Rocco came and also really put 1363 01:07:49,547 --> 01:07:50,227 Speaker 24: us on the front foot. 1364 01:07:50,867 --> 01:07:52,547 Speaker 2: And you had a couple of overs today as well, 1365 01:07:52,627 --> 01:07:54,707 Speaker 2: you had three in the last game. What is your 1366 01:07:54,787 --> 01:07:57,467 Speaker 2: bowling role in the New Zealand fifty overside? 1367 01:07:58,787 --> 01:07:59,867 Speaker 23: Oh, it's a heavy question. 1368 01:08:00,787 --> 01:08:04,507 Speaker 24: Just failed And then if so, if he wants me 1369 01:08:04,547 --> 01:08:07,747 Speaker 24: to roll the home over over, do it and probably 1370 01:08:07,867 --> 01:08:09,267 Speaker 24: check a couple of no balls in there as well. 1371 01:08:09,307 --> 01:08:13,147 Speaker 23: It seems at the moment, So yeah, it's going really well, 1372 01:08:13,267 --> 01:08:14,867 Speaker 23: So we'll see if I get another overnext game. 1373 01:08:15,187 --> 01:08:17,787 Speaker 2: Do you see a time though, where your bowling contribution 1374 01:08:18,147 --> 01:08:20,547 Speaker 2: is more significant and fifty over a cricket? Like, can 1375 01:08:20,587 --> 01:08:22,187 Speaker 2: you see a time where you bowl your ten overs? 1376 01:08:22,427 --> 01:08:23,027 Speaker 2: For example? 1377 01:08:23,707 --> 01:08:23,827 Speaker 24: Oh? 1378 01:08:23,907 --> 01:08:26,347 Speaker 23: Absolutely not. I do not see me ever bowling teen overs. 1379 01:08:27,987 --> 01:08:30,467 Speaker 24: I have told Ben Sawyer so many times that he 1380 01:08:30,587 --> 01:08:33,787 Speaker 24: needs to lower my bowling loads because it's unrealistic that 1381 01:08:33,827 --> 01:08:35,467 Speaker 24: I've ever gon bowl ten overs. 1382 01:08:37,867 --> 01:08:38,747 Speaker 23: Six overs, you know. 1383 01:08:39,907 --> 01:08:42,187 Speaker 24: I guess I'm like a yeah, never an od obviously 1384 01:08:42,227 --> 01:08:44,947 Speaker 24: domestic crickets a little bit different. But yeah, my role 1385 01:08:45,147 --> 01:08:48,227 Speaker 24: definitely in this team is batting with the odd part time. 1386 01:08:49,907 --> 01:08:50,547 Speaker 23: Roll the arm over. 1387 01:08:51,187 --> 01:08:54,627 Speaker 2: So next up shril Ancha Colombo on Tuesday. How do 1388 01:08:54,707 --> 01:08:57,347 Speaker 2: you best use tonight as the springboard for the rest 1389 01:08:57,387 --> 01:08:57,947 Speaker 2: of the tournament. 1390 01:08:59,587 --> 01:09:04,387 Speaker 24: Yeah, obviously that momentum and the I think the positivity, 1391 01:09:04,747 --> 01:09:07,227 Speaker 24: the you know, few of the girls who are a 1392 01:09:07,267 --> 01:09:09,787 Speaker 24: lot happier today, which also helps. And I think if 1393 01:09:09,827 --> 01:09:11,627 Speaker 24: we can just carry that through over the next few 1394 01:09:11,707 --> 01:09:15,387 Speaker 24: days looking into Schlanka, it's always a positive. And for us, 1395 01:09:15,467 --> 01:09:17,107 Speaker 24: I think the way that you know, Sophie and I 1396 01:09:17,387 --> 01:09:19,787 Speaker 24: did bat today kind of kind of gives an insight 1397 01:09:19,867 --> 01:09:22,227 Speaker 24: into the way that we might have to bat worth 1398 01:09:22,587 --> 01:09:26,427 Speaker 24: on Colombo wickets with it being a little little bit slower. 1399 01:09:26,507 --> 01:09:29,587 Speaker 24: So it's just you know, individually figuring out maybe on 1400 01:09:29,627 --> 01:09:31,667 Speaker 24: those slower wickets, how we're going to approach that and 1401 01:09:31,987 --> 01:09:34,507 Speaker 24: stick into our game plan and actually being boring, whether 1402 01:09:34,547 --> 01:09:36,467 Speaker 24: that's with the ball or the bat. And you know, 1403 01:09:36,547 --> 01:09:38,587 Speaker 24: hopefully today we kind of saw that, you know, if 1404 01:09:38,587 --> 01:09:41,187 Speaker 24: you grind a way, you can still be able to 1405 01:09:41,227 --> 01:09:43,587 Speaker 24: put a competitive total, especially with the way that Maddie 1406 01:09:43,627 --> 01:09:45,067 Speaker 24: and you know, lead to who who came out and 1407 01:09:45,187 --> 01:09:47,467 Speaker 24: battered and that last ten over is to kind of 1408 01:09:47,507 --> 01:09:48,867 Speaker 24: give us a competitive score. 1409 01:09:49,587 --> 01:09:52,347 Speaker 2: Well, congrats on the win today and your significant part 1410 01:09:52,387 --> 01:09:53,747 Speaker 2: and it Broke, thanks for chatting to us. All the 1411 01:09:53,787 --> 01:09:55,987 Speaker 2: best against Sri Lanka on Tuesday and for the rest 1412 01:09:56,027 --> 01:09:58,707 Speaker 2: of the tournament too. Thank you, Thank you Brook for 1413 01:09:58,827 --> 01:10:00,787 Speaker 2: joining us, Brooke Holliday there out of the white ferm 1414 01:10:00,867 --> 01:10:03,907 Speaker 2: so I'll win for them against Bangladesh this morning. The 1415 01:10:03,947 --> 01:10:06,107 Speaker 2: way there your Woman's World Cup works, there are eight teams, 1416 01:10:06,547 --> 01:10:09,387 Speaker 2: everybody plays everybody in round robin, so he plays seven 1417 01:10:09,467 --> 01:10:12,707 Speaker 2: games and then the top four go through to the 1418 01:10:12,787 --> 01:10:16,187 Speaker 2: semi finals. So really you kind of got to win 1419 01:10:16,307 --> 01:10:19,547 Speaker 2: four games. That is the size of it. Really. New 1420 01:10:19,627 --> 01:10:23,427 Speaker 2: Zealand lost their first two of course to Australia and 1421 01:10:23,587 --> 01:10:25,867 Speaker 2: then to South Africa, so good to get the win 1422 01:10:26,467 --> 01:10:28,987 Speaker 2: on the board here. Next up they play, as I 1423 01:10:29,107 --> 01:10:32,507 Speaker 2: just mentioned, Sri Lanka on Wednesday. Sri Lanka have had 1424 01:10:32,627 --> 01:10:36,067 Speaker 2: a loss and a no result so far. Then Pakistan. 1425 01:10:36,187 --> 01:10:40,027 Speaker 2: Pakistan have played three and lost three and then it 1426 01:10:40,147 --> 01:10:43,107 Speaker 2: is India after that. The home side, they've had a 1427 01:10:43,147 --> 01:10:45,747 Speaker 2: couple of wins in a loss and finally for the 1428 01:10:45,867 --> 01:10:49,827 Speaker 2: White Ferns that is England, so they're not exactly and 1429 01:10:49,987 --> 01:10:54,307 Speaker 2: must win territory, but you don't want to lose too 1430 01:10:54,347 --> 01:10:58,107 Speaker 2: many more from here. Two losses and the solitary win 1431 01:10:58,187 --> 01:11:00,427 Speaker 2: after three games. If they were to win their remaining 1432 01:11:00,507 --> 01:11:03,027 Speaker 2: four pool games, that would guarantee them a spot in 1433 01:11:03,067 --> 01:11:04,787 Speaker 2: the top four, so that has to be the aim, right. 1434 01:11:05,187 --> 01:11:07,347 Speaker 2: It may well come down to that game against England 1435 01:11:07,387 --> 01:11:10,147 Speaker 2: depending on other results, or they may already secured their 1436 01:11:10,187 --> 01:11:12,867 Speaker 2: semi final spot by the time the last game against 1437 01:11:12,907 --> 01:11:14,947 Speaker 2: England rolls around.

But yeah, obviously 1461 01:12:31,907 --> 01:12:35,027 Speaker 5: motorsports fans foth on it, absolutely love it, and fair 1462 01:12:35,147 --> 01:12:38,347 Speaker 5: enough too because it is such a great race. But yeah, 1463 01:12:38,427 --> 01:12:41,907 Speaker 5: it doesn't seem to have that general appeal that at once. 1464 01:12:42,147 --> 01:12:44,307 Speaker 5: I don't know if it's that kind of forward holding 1465 01:12:44,347 --> 01:12:46,827 Speaker 5: thing that's kind of gone away or something else made 1466 01:12:46,867 --> 01:12:50,107 Speaker 5: to the icons, but yeah, it's still big, but not huge. 1467 01:12:50,267 --> 01:12:52,187 Speaker 2: All right, you mentioned cricket there and we're about to 1468 01:12:52,187 --> 01:12:56,187 Speaker 2: get underway with the home summers for yourselves and ourselves 1469 01:12:56,227 --> 01:12:59,347 Speaker 2: as well. Usband Kawaja has said this week that Australian 1470 01:12:59,387 --> 01:13:02,427 Speaker 2: cricket bosses should consider moving the Boxing Day and New 1471 01:13:02,507 --> 01:13:05,467 Speaker 2: Year's Tests if it allows the top players to take 1472 01:13:05,507 --> 01:13:08,667 Speaker 2: part in the big every year. How have these comments 1473 01:13:08,707 --> 01:13:09,387 Speaker 2: been received? 1474 01:13:10,107 --> 01:13:16,507 Speaker 5: Big call? Because although we yell tradition and this New 1475 01:13:16,587 --> 01:13:19,907 Speaker 5: Year's Test and Boxing Day Test, it's not like it's 1476 01:13:19,907 --> 01:13:20,947 Speaker 5: been around for one hundred. 1477 01:13:20,707 --> 01:13:21,227 Speaker 16: And fifty years. 1478 01:13:23,387 --> 01:13:25,507 Speaker 5: I'm not totally sure that the Boxing Day Test, but 1479 01:13:25,587 --> 01:13:29,627 Speaker 5: certainly the New Year's Test wasn't around when I started 1480 01:13:29,667 --> 01:13:32,347 Speaker 5: following cricket. It only became a thing. But it is 1481 01:13:32,427 --> 01:13:34,667 Speaker 5: a success. So do you want to tamper with something 1482 01:13:34,707 --> 01:13:37,867 Speaker 5: that is iconic like the Boxing Day Test. Are you 1483 01:13:37,947 --> 01:13:39,467 Speaker 5: going to get that type of crowd if you play 1484 01:13:39,507 --> 01:13:43,587 Speaker 5: it on December tenth? Probably not. Are you going to 1485 01:13:43,667 --> 01:13:45,707 Speaker 5: have the amount of people that come in too sitting 1486 01:13:45,707 --> 01:13:48,187 Speaker 5: in to watch the news test from all around the 1487 01:13:48,267 --> 01:13:51,467 Speaker 5: country just to celebrating years and all that. If you're 1488 01:13:51,467 --> 01:13:54,707 Speaker 5: going to have that on February fourteenth, probably not. On 1489 01:13:54,787 --> 01:13:57,107 Speaker 5: February fourteen, Valentine's Day. But you know what I mean, 1490 01:13:57,827 --> 01:14:01,227 Speaker 5: people love their cricket not that much. But yeah, yeah, 1491 01:14:01,507 --> 01:14:03,307 Speaker 5: it's a big call because it's all around the big batch. 1492 01:14:03,347 --> 01:14:06,667 Speaker 5: But do you want to change something that is working 1493 01:14:06,827 --> 01:14:08,467 Speaker 5: for the sake of trying to get something else to 1494 01:14:08,547 --> 01:14:11,627 Speaker 5: work properly or just maybe work out hout of work 1495 01:14:11,787 --> 01:14:14,147 Speaker 5: that other things out properly without tampering with what's there. 1496 01:14:14,227 --> 01:14:15,147 Speaker 5: That's my feeling on it. 1497 01:14:15,787 --> 01:14:18,227 Speaker 2: As the reason he made the comments the fact that 1498 01:14:18,427 --> 01:14:20,787 Speaker 2: that you know, big players like Pat Cummens Travis Head 1499 01:14:21,027 --> 01:14:24,427 Speaker 2: are being offered big money to exit Australian cricket all together. 1500 01:14:24,867 --> 01:14:27,227 Speaker 2: So the collateral damage of trying to keep them is 1501 01:14:27,387 --> 01:14:29,307 Speaker 2: let them play Big Bash and we'll move the test matches. 1502 01:14:29,427 --> 01:14:31,627 Speaker 2: Is that the retinal behind the comments. 1503 01:14:31,627 --> 01:14:34,467 Speaker 5: Potentially, especially when your factor in what might happen to 1504 01:14:34,507 --> 01:14:37,227 Speaker 5: those big DASH franchises, which is being bought by these. 1505 01:14:37,147 --> 01:14:41,627 Speaker 4: Big conglomerates who will run these franchises around the world, 1506 01:14:41,747 --> 01:14:44,867 Speaker 4: the centerpiece being the IPL team, but then having spin 1507 01:14:44,947 --> 01:14:48,587 Speaker 4: offs here, there and everywhere, and Pat and Travis for instance, 1508 01:14:48,627 --> 01:14:51,227 Speaker 4: to go and play four or five T twenty tournaments 1509 01:14:51,267 --> 01:14:53,907 Speaker 4: a year and that's their bang for bucks for ten million. 1510 01:14:54,227 --> 01:15:00,427 Speaker 5: So yeah, I can receive that argument, but still and 1511 01:15:00,547 --> 01:15:03,347 Speaker 5: then up ending something. But I like our of thinking 1512 01:15:03,387 --> 01:15:06,707 Speaker 5: outside the boxom not against what he said. It's it's 1513 01:15:06,787 --> 01:15:10,187 Speaker 5: more let's crime consider this for the best for all 1514 01:15:10,547 --> 01:15:12,707 Speaker 5: parties at the moment looking at it, I would not 1515 01:15:12,947 --> 01:15:15,387 Speaker 5: like to tamper with it that other people might be different. 1516 01:15:15,547 --> 01:15:19,067 Speaker 2: All right, you're Australian women's team as ours are is 1517 01:15:19,187 --> 01:15:21,187 Speaker 2: the Cricket World Cup right now, A couple of comfortable 1518 01:15:21,187 --> 01:15:23,627 Speaker 2: wins and a watch out to start stack team. You 1519 01:15:23,707 --> 01:15:25,947 Speaker 2: have a Lissa Healey at least Perry Beth Mooney, Ash 1520 01:15:26,027 --> 01:15:29,147 Speaker 2: Gardner and others. Would anything less than winning the World 1521 01:15:29,147 --> 01:15:30,347 Speaker 2: Cup be a bit of a disappointment. 1522 01:15:31,547 --> 01:15:35,587 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, that's pretty bad because they win them for fun, 1523 01:15:35,987 --> 01:15:39,947 Speaker 5: this team, and actually because I do a bit of 1524 01:15:39,987 --> 01:15:43,067 Speaker 5: work with Elisa Healey here in Australia with New Zealand's 1525 01:15:43,227 --> 01:15:48,587 Speaker 5: favorite son Brad Haddan on Willow's Talk, we've actually. 1526 01:15:48,387 --> 01:15:51,307 Speaker 25: Been just giving it to heel saying, oh, it doesn't 1527 01:15:51,347 --> 01:15:55,027 Speaker 25: matter about your top five, top six, get playing a 1528 01:15:55,067 --> 01:15:58,467 Speaker 25: merry go round and whoever whoever's in the gun seat 1529 01:15:58,507 --> 01:16:00,347 Speaker 25: scores the century for that match and then you move 1530 01:16:00,387 --> 01:16:01,347 Speaker 25: on beat that team. 1531 01:16:01,147 --> 01:16:02,867 Speaker 5: And then move on. They were in trouble. There's a 1532 01:16:03,187 --> 01:16:05,747 Speaker 5: bit of trouble in both their games so far. They've 1533 01:16:05,747 --> 01:16:08,707 Speaker 5: had one wash but durn stripe and then Beth Mooney 1534 01:16:08,707 --> 01:16:10,347 Speaker 5: stepped up in the first one. It was actually out 1535 01:16:10,387 --> 01:16:13,627 Speaker 5: and they've just got much depth. It's ridiculous. And yeah 1536 01:16:13,787 --> 01:16:15,787 Speaker 5: they've got good bowling to gots, especially on those we 1537 01:16:15,907 --> 01:16:18,107 Speaker 5: gets over there. But with the bat on any day. 1538 01:16:18,387 --> 01:16:20,747 Speaker 5: Someone called the century and that's the problem for the opposition. 1539 01:16:21,747 --> 01:16:24,627 Speaker 2: And speaking of your women's sides, the Matilda's have upcoming 1540 01:16:24,707 --> 01:16:27,627 Speaker 2: matches against Wales and England. This is football, of course, 1541 01:16:27,787 --> 01:16:31,267 Speaker 2: and your biggest star is back for what I can 1542 01:16:31,347 --> 01:16:34,387 Speaker 2: see is the first time since January twenty twenty four. 1543 01:16:35,027 --> 01:16:38,707 Speaker 5: Yeah, officially in the squat Sam ker So had a 1544 01:16:39,107 --> 01:16:44,027 Speaker 5: acl a need problem and then had a hiccup. I'm 1545 01:16:44,067 --> 01:16:46,867 Speaker 5: not entirely sure what that hiccup was, but it delayed 1546 01:16:46,907 --> 01:16:49,627 Speaker 5: her and then she's obviously had off field things happened 1547 01:16:49,627 --> 01:16:53,387 Speaker 5: in the lights happy things like becoming a mum. The 1548 01:16:53,907 --> 01:16:56,387 Speaker 5: things that made it probably stressed out a fair bit 1549 01:16:56,507 --> 01:17:01,107 Speaker 5: in terms of that case in London with the police officer, 1550 01:17:01,227 --> 01:17:03,667 Speaker 5: but that's all washed away now and she's back. She 1551 01:17:04,187 --> 01:17:06,067 Speaker 5: came into the last camp. I think just to be around. 1552 01:17:06,347 --> 01:17:10,587 Speaker 5: This is her first official time back and first time 1553 01:17:10,667 --> 01:17:12,747 Speaker 5: that she's probably going to play a minute. She's being 1554 01:17:12,907 --> 01:17:15,947 Speaker 5: used carefully by Chelsea at the moment her club only 1555 01:17:15,987 --> 01:17:17,987 Speaker 5: off the bench. But it's great to see her back 1556 01:17:18,027 --> 01:17:20,187 Speaker 5: and she's an icon and yeah can talk with people. 1557 01:17:20,267 --> 01:17:22,387 Speaker 5: When you start this conversation about backer and how much 1558 01:17:22,427 --> 01:17:25,347 Speaker 5: cut through well Sanko does.

And it was 1608 01:20:15,627 --> 01:20:18,667 Speaker 2: getting done those those lines, wasn't It was certainly free 1609 01:20:18,787 --> 01:20:22,707 Speaker 2: scoring last night and eventually it was the homeside Otago 1610 01:20:22,747 --> 01:20:26,947 Speaker 2: who got there forty four to forty one, courtesy of 1611 01:20:27,307 --> 01:20:31,227 Speaker 2: a penalty after the final hooter from cam Miller. It 1612 01:20:31,347 --> 01:20:34,307 Speaker 2: was looking all Otago for a while there when Sam 1613 01:20:34,387 --> 01:20:36,507 Speaker 2: Gilbert dropped a gold that took them out to forty 1614 01:20:36,547 --> 01:20:39,227 Speaker 2: one twenty seven. With about twelve minutes to go. It 1615 01:20:39,347 --> 01:20:41,107 Speaker 2: looked as though it would all, you know, all sort 1616 01:20:41,147 --> 01:20:44,547 Speaker 2: of finish in the fashion that we expected, but two 1617 01:20:44,627 --> 01:20:48,227 Speaker 2: converted tries from Waikato brought it back to forty one. 1618 01:20:48,467 --> 01:20:53,347 Speaker 2: All the final hooter goes Otago get a penalty fifty 1619 01:20:53,387 --> 01:20:56,027 Speaker 2: meters out on the angle.

And we were ten years behind the 1790 01:30:32,907 --> 01:30:34,907 Speaker 20: rest of the world here in New Zealand, you know, 1791 01:30:34,987 --> 01:30:38,507 Speaker 20: because we are a long way from everywhere. There were 1792 01:30:38,587 --> 01:30:43,627 Speaker 20: professional European Paralympic cyclists. All of the big teams had 1793 01:30:43,627 --> 01:30:47,387 Speaker 20: a Paralympic team as well, you know, the US, the UK, 1794 01:30:48,267 --> 01:30:52,987 Speaker 20: all of Europe, even Australia was striding out in front 1795 01:30:53,027 --> 01:30:56,027 Speaker 20: of US. So you know, it was what a fantastic opportunity. 1796 01:30:56,667 --> 01:30:58,667 Speaker 2: How long did it take you to get used to 1797 01:30:59,347 --> 01:31:00,347 Speaker 2: riding on a velodrome? 1798 01:31:02,427 --> 01:31:06,427 Speaker 20: For the ten days before riding on my key hell 1799 01:31:08,187 --> 01:31:11,267 Speaker 20: to do the training. I was senior winemaker at Montana 1800 01:31:11,347 --> 01:31:14,707 Speaker 20: and Mulbre at the time, and our only training track 1801 01:31:14,867 --> 01:31:18,587 Speaker 20: was the four hundred meter concrete track that was on 1802 01:31:18,667 --> 01:31:21,987 Speaker 20: the outside of the running track, and so the steepest 1803 01:31:22,067 --> 01:31:25,787 Speaker 20: part of that valodrome was flatter than the flattest part 1804 01:31:25,987 --> 01:31:28,867 Speaker 20: of the valodrome, and so I'd never ridden on boards. 1805 01:31:29,587 --> 01:31:32,827 Speaker 20: You know, poorl Wayne that the team manager, when he 1806 01:31:32,947 --> 01:31:34,947 Speaker 20: saw me going for my first lap around, you know, 1807 01:31:35,227 --> 01:31:36,787 Speaker 20: telling me to go up, go up, go up, and 1808 01:31:37,067 --> 01:31:40,507 Speaker 20: I'm getting there. I'm getting there. And I always remember 1809 01:31:40,587 --> 01:31:43,347 Speaker 20: he rang up Ron Cheatly, you know, New Zealand's most 1810 01:31:43,467 --> 01:31:48,627 Speaker 20: famous cycle and track coach, and he said, you know, Ron, 1811 01:31:48,747 --> 01:31:50,187 Speaker 20: what am I going to do here? You know I 1812 01:31:50,747 --> 01:31:52,947 Speaker 20: got this, you know I've got this country hick who's 1813 01:31:53,027 --> 01:31:55,747 Speaker 20: never actually been on it. So it was it was 1814 01:31:55,747 --> 01:31:57,427 Speaker 20: a bit of a learning experience for us all. 1815 01:31:57,907 --> 01:32:01,787 Speaker 2: So you went to Sydney, as I understand it, without 1816 01:32:01,827 --> 01:32:04,747 Speaker 2: even an official time recorded. Over one thousand meters had 1817 01:32:04,747 --> 01:32:07,987 Speaker 2: you never competed in this event before. 1818 01:32:08,067 --> 01:32:10,707 Speaker 20: No, not in the kilo, so you know I made 1819 01:32:10,747 --> 01:32:14,827 Speaker 20: some I had some good wins and in the road cycling, 1820 01:32:15,267 --> 01:32:18,187 Speaker 20: you know, and that my advantage has always been as 1821 01:32:18,187 --> 01:32:20,187 Speaker 20: a double mputee, you can get out of the settle 1822 01:32:20,227 --> 01:32:23,187 Speaker 20: and you can sprint, so it means you can climb 1823 01:32:23,627 --> 01:32:26,587 Speaker 20: really well on road cycling, or it means you can 1824 01:32:26,707 --> 01:32:30,307 Speaker 20: start really fast. So it was no use me doing 1825 01:32:30,947 --> 01:32:33,427 Speaker 20: an individual pursuit. I'd be able to do the first 1826 01:32:33,507 --> 01:32:37,267 Speaker 20: lap fast and everyone catches you up. And so the 1827 01:32:37,467 --> 01:32:39,587 Speaker 20: selectors at the time took a punt. They knew that 1828 01:32:39,667 --> 01:32:43,027 Speaker 20: I was riding really well, an amazing coach, Tony Kaderick 1829 01:32:43,107 --> 01:32:47,667 Speaker 20: from Blenham, and you know, they put the faith in 1830 01:32:47,787 --> 01:32:52,067 Speaker 20: me and blindly entered me in the kilo, and you 1831 01:32:52,107 --> 01:32:53,267 Speaker 20: know it was like it was. 1832 01:32:53,347 --> 01:32:56,347 Speaker 2: Made for me. So you're completely under the radar, unranked. 1833 01:32:56,507 --> 01:32:59,107 Speaker 2: So the way this event works, as most people know, 1834 01:32:59,267 --> 01:33:01,947 Speaker 2: is that the I guess, the faster riders go last, 1835 01:33:02,147 --> 01:33:03,427 Speaker 2: so you ought to be one of the first. You 1836 01:33:03,547 --> 01:33:07,827 Speaker 2: clocked one twenty three point one nine and then what 1837 01:33:07,947 --> 01:33:09,627 Speaker 2: you just have to sit and watch the rest of 1838 01:33:09,667 --> 01:33:11,627 Speaker 2: the field and hope they don't go quicker. 1839 01:33:12,147 --> 01:33:15,147 Speaker 20: It's amazing every time I see this happen on our 1840 01:33:15,227 --> 01:33:20,267 Speaker 20: Olympic and Paralympic coverage. You know, you see that person 1841 01:33:20,307 --> 01:33:23,027 Speaker 20: that's done a really fast like toa to France. You know, 1842 01:33:23,467 --> 01:33:26,187 Speaker 20: you see in the time trials, you know that one 1843 01:33:26,227 --> 01:33:28,587 Speaker 20: guy is sitting in the hot seat until someone goes faster. 1844 01:33:28,667 --> 01:33:29,747 Speaker 2: It's like, ah, you know. 1845 01:33:29,907 --> 01:33:32,707 Speaker 20: And it was just watching everyone, you know, because yeah 1846 01:33:32,787 --> 01:33:35,347 Speaker 20: it was there were all of the fastest guys in 1847 01:33:35,387 --> 01:33:37,627 Speaker 20: the world were coming after me, and it was just 1848 01:33:37,747 --> 01:33:39,947 Speaker 20: like there was one, you know, the one that then 1849 01:33:39,987 --> 01:33:42,427 Speaker 20: all of a sudden You've got a bronze medal. You know, 1850 01:33:42,507 --> 01:33:44,867 Speaker 20: it's like sweet, that's that's good for me, you know. 1851 01:33:45,107 --> 01:33:47,987 Speaker 20: And then you know the last one and so that 1852 01:33:48,107 --> 01:33:50,827 Speaker 20: was Radavar Kaufman. And you know he was a single 1853 01:33:50,867 --> 01:33:53,427 Speaker 20: abovenee amputee. But that one leg he had that had 1854 01:33:53,427 --> 01:33:55,227 Speaker 20: a lot of Slovenia beef in it, you know, it 1855 01:33:55,307 --> 01:33:58,627 Speaker 20: looked like a powerpole. And as soon as he as 1856 01:33:58,667 --> 01:34:00,907 Speaker 20: soon as he lit off on you that he would 1857 01:34:00,907 --> 01:34:01,867 Speaker 20: come close or beat me. 1858 01:34:02,027 --> 01:34:02,227 Speaker 10: Yep. 1859 01:34:03,027 --> 01:34:04,987 Speaker 2: Silver must still have been special by because what were 1860 01:34:05,027 --> 01:34:06,987 Speaker 2: your expectations going and did you expect to be on 1861 01:34:07,027 --> 01:34:07,467 Speaker 2: the podium. 1862 01:34:08,107 --> 01:34:14,107 Speaker 20: Oh definitely not. You know, well, no, that's wrong. You're 1863 01:34:14,147 --> 01:34:15,947 Speaker 20: not competing in something if you don't want to win, 1864 01:34:16,107 --> 01:34:18,027 Speaker 20: of course, you know, and you don't compete in something. 1865 01:34:18,267 --> 01:34:21,227 Speaker 20: And I knew that in my training, I had written 1866 01:34:21,707 --> 01:34:23,907 Speaker 20: the first lap faster than the world record for the 1867 01:34:23,987 --> 01:34:27,747 Speaker 20: first lap, but you know it was unofficially timed. I 1868 01:34:27,867 --> 01:34:30,107 Speaker 20: knew that if I could just hang in there for 1869 01:34:30,187 --> 01:34:34,067 Speaker 20: the last three laps when these single above the amputees 1870 01:34:34,107 --> 01:34:36,627 Speaker 20: would be catching me up. And so you know, I 1871 01:34:36,707 --> 01:34:38,667 Speaker 20: knew that as long as I could put that together, 1872 01:34:38,747 --> 01:34:41,627 Speaker 20: and all the training Tony had put me through, and 1873 01:34:41,987 --> 01:34:45,787 Speaker 20: the tutoring by Wayne on the track, you know, we 1874 01:34:45,907 --> 01:34:47,827 Speaker 20: were quietly confident that I could do something. 1875 01:34:48,747 --> 01:34:51,267 Speaker 2: And so once you'd won your silver medal, then you 1876 01:34:51,547 --> 01:34:53,947 Speaker 2: didn't really carry on for much longer with the with 1877 01:34:54,027 --> 01:34:55,627 Speaker 2: the cycling after that, I yes, you moved on to 1878 01:34:55,707 --> 01:34:57,507 Speaker 2: your new challenge, which was trying to get to the 1879 01:34:57,547 --> 01:34:59,787 Speaker 2: top of Everest, among other things. So did you ever 1880 01:35:00,107 --> 01:35:01,827 Speaker 2: consider that, hey, I'm quite good at this, I might 1881 01:35:01,867 --> 01:35:03,427 Speaker 2: carry on with the cycling. 1882 01:35:03,627 --> 01:35:05,827 Speaker 20: Yeah, but you need to understand that two thousand was 1883 01:35:05,827 --> 01:35:12,307 Speaker 20: probably the last time you could be a really an 1884 01:35:12,387 --> 01:35:16,027 Speaker 20: amateur athlete. At the Paralympics, you know, and especially you 1885 01:35:16,107 --> 01:35:18,467 Speaker 20: know if you're you know, a senior wine maker at 1886 01:35:18,507 --> 01:35:22,227 Speaker 20: Montana at the time, and so you need cyclings that 1887 01:35:22,467 --> 01:35:25,787 Speaker 20: sort of the sport where you have to put the 1888 01:35:25,827 --> 01:35:29,507 Speaker 20: miles in and those miles cost hours. And so I 1889 01:35:30,187 --> 01:35:32,707 Speaker 20: tried to keep the training up until two thousand and one, 1890 01:35:32,827 --> 01:35:37,147 Speaker 20: went to the World Championships in Zurich, you know, and 1891 01:35:37,347 --> 01:35:37,987 Speaker 20: just bombed out. 1892 01:35:38,107 --> 01:35:38,227 Speaker 22: You know. 1893 01:35:38,347 --> 01:35:41,067 Speaker 20: It's just everyone else had just got so much better. 1894 01:35:41,467 --> 01:35:44,667 Speaker 20: You know that the leagues at Wayne, Alexander and I 1895 01:35:44,787 --> 01:35:48,307 Speaker 20: had designed for Sydney, people had copied them and starting 1896 01:35:48,387 --> 01:35:50,507 Speaker 20: to use those. So you lost a lot of your 1897 01:35:50,707 --> 01:35:54,307 Speaker 20: dark horse advantage. So it was once I'd seen that 1898 01:35:55,067 --> 01:35:58,027 Speaker 20: that I really needed to focus on other things. 1899 01:35:58,987 --> 01:36:03,147 Speaker 2: How long did it take after your amputation to accept 1900 01:36:03,187 --> 01:36:07,187 Speaker 2: the cards that you'd been dealt and to start focus forward. 1901 01:36:08,627 --> 01:36:10,547 Speaker 20: Well, because we had to lie in hospital and watch 1902 01:36:10,587 --> 01:36:13,507 Speaker 20: our feet right for that month before we had the 1903 01:36:13,587 --> 01:36:17,307 Speaker 20: amputation on Christmas Eve in eighty two. You sort of 1904 01:36:17,507 --> 01:36:20,867 Speaker 20: get through all of that before, and so when you 1905 01:36:20,987 --> 01:36:23,747 Speaker 20: wake up on Christmas Day, you know, and the sheets 1906 01:36:23,867 --> 01:36:26,947 Speaker 20: end halfway down the bed, that's the time to start, 1907 01:36:27,907 --> 01:36:29,907 Speaker 20: it really is. And so we've done a lot of 1908 01:36:29,987 --> 01:36:30,667 Speaker 20: that processing. 1909 01:36:30,747 --> 01:36:33,107 Speaker 2: It's still still really. 1910 01:36:32,867 --> 01:36:36,667 Speaker 20: Hard, you know, it's still damn hard. But you know, 1911 01:36:36,707 --> 01:36:38,027 Speaker 20: if you're going to have your legs cut off at 1912 01:36:38,067 --> 01:36:40,467 Speaker 20: twenty three, then the best person to do it too 1913 01:36:40,587 --> 01:36:41,547 Speaker 20: is a young mountaineer. 1914 01:36:42,027 --> 01:36:42,187 Speaker 10: You know. 1915 01:36:42,307 --> 01:36:45,427 Speaker 20: I was a professional mountaineer, and you know, you. 1916 01:36:47,467 --> 01:36:48,067 Speaker 3: You live in an. 1917 01:36:48,107 --> 01:36:50,307 Speaker 20: Environment where if you make the right move you might die, 1918 01:36:50,827 --> 01:36:54,547 Speaker 20: and so you have that ability to focus, and that's 1919 01:36:54,667 --> 01:36:56,867 Speaker 20: what you know, you're able to bring along to this 1920 01:36:57,587 --> 01:37:01,427 Speaker 20: new situation. Really, and so it wasn't about oh, never 1921 01:37:01,507 --> 01:37:04,307 Speaker 20: climb again. It's just like when can I climb again? 1922 01:37:04,747 --> 01:37:04,907 Speaker 10: You know. 1923 01:37:05,107 --> 01:37:07,867 Speaker 20: And there was a frustrat about climbing too slow, which 1924 01:37:07,867 --> 01:37:09,627 Speaker 20: is why I stepped away into the cycling and the 1925 01:37:09,707 --> 01:37:13,347 Speaker 20: skiing and then stepped straight back into It takes time, yep, 1926 01:37:13,907 --> 01:37:15,147 Speaker 20: I'm still learning, it's you know. 1927 01:37:16,067 --> 01:37:16,267 Speaker 11: Yeah. 1928 01:37:17,227 --> 01:37:19,787 Speaker 2: Were there times though, that were particularly challenging where you 1929 01:37:19,827 --> 01:37:21,787 Speaker 2: thought to yourself, this just isn't fair. Why has this 1930 01:37:21,867 --> 01:37:22,307 Speaker 2: happened to me? 1931 01:37:25,587 --> 01:37:27,627 Speaker 20: Not really, because in a lot of cases, you know, 1932 01:37:27,747 --> 01:37:29,867 Speaker 20: because we sat in an ice cave for thirteen and 1933 01:37:29,907 --> 01:37:32,707 Speaker 20: a half days and it was like your own Discovery 1934 01:37:32,787 --> 01:37:35,947 Speaker 20: Channel program on frostbite playing at the end of your feet. 1935 01:37:36,067 --> 01:37:38,547 Speaker 20: You know, it was just like I was a trained paramedic. 1936 01:37:38,587 --> 01:37:41,307 Speaker 20: You know, you knew exactly what was happening. You're making 1937 01:37:41,427 --> 01:37:45,787 Speaker 20: decisions not to get hypothermia, but to accept frostbite, you know, 1938 01:37:45,947 --> 01:37:50,307 Speaker 20: because frostbite doesn't kill you, hypothermia does. And so all 1939 01:37:50,387 --> 01:37:53,107 Speaker 20: of that, all of that processing was going on. It 1940 01:37:53,147 --> 01:37:56,067 Speaker 20: would be much much harder if you were out racing 1941 01:37:56,107 --> 01:37:58,667 Speaker 20: on a motorbike and you wake up in hospital the 1942 01:37:58,787 --> 01:38:01,987 Speaker 20: next day and you're a double mputee or a car 1943 01:38:02,147 --> 01:38:05,347 Speaker 20: accident or you know many of these other things that 1944 01:38:05,507 --> 01:38:08,787 Speaker 20: you know, I just pattent unfair.

But the fact that he's 2098 01:46:14,627 --> 01:46:17,387 Speaker 2: only qualified eighteenth, he won't be part of the top 2099 01:46:17,787 --> 01:46:20,867 Speaker 2: ten shootouts you mentioned when we spoke last time. He 2100 01:46:20,947 --> 01:46:23,947 Speaker 2: was quite disappointed. Can he still turn things around and 2101 01:46:24,027 --> 01:46:26,107 Speaker 2: have a very memorable day tomorrow. 2102 01:46:27,107 --> 01:46:30,547 Speaker 12: He certainly can. It's quite I mean some people say, oh, 2103 01:46:30,627 --> 01:46:33,387 Speaker 12: matt Pain's bonus chance, not at all. I mean some 2104 01:46:33,507 --> 01:46:37,307 Speaker 12: of your listeners will remember when I mean it was 2105 01:46:37,427 --> 01:46:42,627 Speaker 12: Chas Mostat and Paul Dunbrow to morrow sorry one from 2106 01:46:42,867 --> 01:46:45,867 Speaker 12: twenty fourth on the grid, dead last, and they ended 2107 01:46:45,947 --> 01:46:50,667 Speaker 12: up winning the Great Race. So anything can happen. Specially 2108 01:46:50,867 --> 01:46:52,827 Speaker 12: is that there's a little bit of forecast of rain 2109 01:46:53,147 --> 01:46:56,987 Speaker 12: about five pm towards the end of the race our time, 2110 01:46:57,027 --> 01:46:59,667 Speaker 12: Australian time, So if it does get a bit a 2111 01:46:59,747 --> 01:47:01,427 Speaker 12: bit wet towards the end of the race, you know, 2112 01:47:01,587 --> 01:47:03,987 Speaker 12: drivers are a bit tired, cars are a bit tired. 2113 01:47:04,507 --> 01:47:09,187 Speaker 12: But it's eminently possible for him to be you know, 2114 01:47:09,267 --> 01:47:12,387 Speaker 12: we're saying how to go and with a chance, you'd 2115 01:47:12,427 --> 01:47:16,187 Speaker 12: write somebody like Matthew Kainoff at your own peril. I'm 2116 01:47:16,267 --> 01:47:20,107 Speaker 12: rooting for Andre hung Gardner. He's had eleven starts here 2117 01:47:21,427 --> 01:47:24,627 Speaker 12: I only, but only finished five times, and none of 2118 01:47:24,667 --> 01:47:27,667 Speaker 12: them due to his fault. So I'm really hoping for 2119 01:47:27,747 --> 01:47:30,307 Speaker 12: a big turn around for Andre. He just missed out 2120 01:47:30,307 --> 01:47:33,507 Speaker 12: on the top ten shootout and their car's really fast, 2121 01:47:33,947 --> 01:47:35,507 Speaker 12: so looked to him to go. 2122 01:47:35,587 --> 01:47:38,347 Speaker 2: Well, all right, Richie stand away as well Jackson Evans. 2123 01:47:38,387 --> 01:47:40,267 Speaker 2: But let's talk about Ryan Wood, who is the man 2124 01:47:40,707 --> 01:47:42,627 Speaker 2: in the top ten shoot out there, the sole key 2125 01:47:42,707 --> 01:47:45,467 Speaker 2: we there. He sounds like he's had a heck of 2126 01:47:45,507 --> 01:47:47,107 Speaker 2: a couple of days. Have you been impressed? 2127 01:47:48,547 --> 01:47:50,147 Speaker 11: Oh? Absolutely. 2128 01:47:50,387 --> 01:47:52,747 Speaker 12: I mean he's been around here before, but he does 2129 01:47:52,827 --> 01:47:55,547 Speaker 12: not have the mileage that some of the other drivers. 2130 01:47:55,627 --> 01:47:58,267 Speaker 12: I mean I touched on it with you earlier that 2131 01:47:59,107 --> 01:48:01,227 Speaker 12: his co driver has done more that's around here than 2132 01:48:01,267 --> 01:48:05,307 Speaker 12: he has, and that bodes really really well both young 2133 01:48:05,347 --> 01:48:09,267 Speaker 12: guns and he the place. He is so excited to 2134 01:48:09,387 --> 01:48:12,547 Speaker 12: be racing in the Great Race. He's all fired up. 2135 01:48:12,587 --> 01:48:13,747 Speaker 16: He said he watched it when he. 2136 01:48:13,867 --> 01:48:16,347 Speaker 12: Was four or five and it was his passion to 2137 01:48:16,427 --> 01:48:18,907 Speaker 12: be here. And he's worked. It's been a single minded 2138 01:48:18,987 --> 01:48:19,867 Speaker 12: focus to get here. 2139 01:48:21,147 --> 01:48:21,307 Speaker 10: You know. 2140 01:48:21,347 --> 01:48:23,867 Speaker 12: If anybody's got a lazy fiver, finally, I'd go and 2141 01:48:23,947 --> 01:48:24,787 Speaker 12: put it on Ryan Wood. 2142 01:48:25,467 --> 01:48:27,307 Speaker 2: All right, I know, And we can talk as much 2143 01:48:27,347 --> 01:48:29,147 Speaker 2: about Ryan Wood and the others as we like, But 2144 01:48:29,787 --> 01:48:32,627 Speaker 2: is everybody really chasing Brodie Kostiki? Is that the way 2145 01:48:32,707 --> 01:48:33,147 Speaker 2: you see it? 2146 01:48:34,547 --> 01:48:37,987 Speaker 12: Yeah, he is gonna he's going for a three peak 2147 01:48:39,187 --> 01:48:41,787 Speaker 12: this afternoon because he put it on pole the last two. 2148 01:48:41,987 --> 01:48:43,827 Speaker 12: You know, he won last year, the year before he 2149 01:48:43,907 --> 01:48:46,787 Speaker 12: put it on pole, so and I would say he's 2150 01:48:46,827 --> 01:48:51,107 Speaker 12: pretty much odds on. But brock Feene has had the 2151 01:48:51,347 --> 01:48:56,587 Speaker 12: year of amazing pole. He's had fourteen pole positions rock 2152 01:48:56,627 --> 01:48:59,547 Speaker 12: Fenny so far this season, and it looks as quite 2153 01:48:59,587 --> 01:49:03,587 Speaker 12: possible and he'll break Scott mcdoplin's record of seventeen poles 2154 01:49:03,787 --> 01:49:05,907 Speaker 12: because there's three more events to go after this one. 2155 01:49:06,547 --> 01:49:11,147 Speaker 12: But and he was only zero point zero, zero sixth 2156 01:49:11,587 --> 01:49:14,347 Speaker 12: of a second off just sickies time. 2157 01:49:17,267 --> 01:49:20,667 Speaker 2: Yeah's look, it's yeah. The margins are so small, aren't they, 2158 01:49:20,827 --> 01:49:23,867 Speaker 2: you know? And it seems incredible really around a track 2159 01:49:23,907 --> 01:49:26,667 Speaker 2: that was six point one k that they can be 2160 01:49:26,787 --> 01:49:31,787 Speaker 2: separated by hundreds, sometimes thousands of a second. It's just 2161 01:49:31,987 --> 01:49:35,027 Speaker 2: astonishing how close they all are. I think Greg Murphy 2162 01:49:35,067 --> 01:49:37,627 Speaker 2: said that qualifying was one of the closest it's ever been. 2163 01:49:39,027 --> 01:49:44,347 Speaker 12: It was from first to sixteenth was point four of 2164 01:49:44,387 --> 01:49:47,347 Speaker 12: a second, you know, And for your listeners, pint, when 2165 01:49:47,387 --> 01:49:50,067 Speaker 12: you your eyes blink, that's about a second. 2166 01:49:51,707 --> 01:49:53,067 Speaker 2: It's just crazy, isn't it. 2167 01:49:53,347 --> 01:49:58,867 Speaker 12: It's just crazy first first sixteen drivers less than half 2168 01:49:58,867 --> 01:50:01,667 Speaker 12: a second between them, and as you said, around one 2169 01:50:01,707 --> 01:50:05,907 Speaker 12: of the most difficult circuits in Australasia six point two 2170 01:50:06,027 --> 01:50:09,187 Speaker 12: or six point one kilometers, they're on the ragged edge 2171 01:50:09,427 --> 01:50:13,187 Speaker 12: most of that lap. So talk about pinpoint accuracy, its 2172 01:50:13,307 --> 01:50:16,107 Speaker 12: shaft phenomena. We were watching at the top and you 2173 01:50:16,147 --> 01:50:18,787 Speaker 12: could see drivers have a different line into all the corners, 2174 01:50:18,827 --> 01:50:21,627 Speaker 12: some co and shallow, some going wide. But if you 2175 01:50:21,707 --> 01:50:24,827 Speaker 12: put a match box down on the apex, the perfect 2176 01:50:24,947 --> 01:50:28,387 Speaker 12: apex of any of those corners, every single car would 2177 01:50:28,467 --> 01:50:30,907 Speaker 12: hit that match box, every. 2178 01:50:30,707 --> 01:50:34,187 Speaker 2: Single So cool. Plenty of places to get something to 2179 01:50:34,267 --> 01:50:36,747 Speaker 2: eat or a drink if you felt like one over there. 2180 01:50:37,907 --> 01:50:41,347 Speaker 12: Well, I already booked in my spa and weight loss treatment. 2181 01:50:41,467 --> 01:50:44,467 Speaker 12: But when I get that, so I've pre booked that pony, 2182 01:50:44,587 --> 01:50:51,547 Speaker 12: pre booked that Bird's great you can get I mean, 2183 01:50:51,587 --> 01:50:54,467 Speaker 12: there's up the top.

Was there a point after that 2322 01:58:05,347 --> 01:58:07,307 Speaker 2: where you thought, hey, we're actually traveling pretty well now. 2323 01:58:09,067 --> 01:58:09,267 Speaker 10: Yeah. 2324 01:58:09,267 --> 01:58:12,587 Speaker 19: I think we played Wellington in one of the early 2325 01:58:12,707 --> 01:58:15,947 Speaker 19: rounds and it was a really tight affair, but we 2326 01:58:16,107 --> 01:58:19,627 Speaker 19: managed to scrape a wind. I think from that game 2327 01:58:19,747 --> 01:58:22,707 Speaker 19: onwards we've just been able to build momentum and belief 2328 01:58:23,067 --> 01:58:26,787 Speaker 19: and it's just keep stacking games and yeah, we've got 2329 01:58:26,827 --> 01:58:28,347 Speaker 19: ourselves at this point from there. 2330 01:58:28,707 --> 01:58:30,347 Speaker 2: Just back to last night, did you know that your 2331 01:58:30,387 --> 01:58:33,307 Speaker 2: skipper Sam Gilbert had a drop goal in his locker? 2332 01:58:35,267 --> 01:58:37,667 Speaker 19: Yeah, I've seen it at training quite a bit actually, 2333 01:58:37,787 --> 01:58:39,987 Speaker 19: but when I passed it to him, I had no 2334 01:58:40,107 --> 01:58:41,907 Speaker 19: clure who was going for it. But it turned out 2335 01:58:41,947 --> 01:58:44,427 Speaker 19: to be quite a crucial three points in the end. 2336 01:58:44,907 --> 01:58:47,467 Speaker 2: So that put your forty one twenty seven ahead, so 2337 01:58:47,747 --> 01:58:50,267 Speaker 2: out to the two tri margin with seven minutes to go. 2338 01:58:50,787 --> 01:58:53,627 Speaker 2: What happened between then and the eighties when they scored 2339 01:58:53,627 --> 01:58:55,347 Speaker 2: a couple of tries to bring it back to forty one. 2340 01:58:55,307 --> 01:58:58,627 Speaker 19: All, I think we just had a couple of years 2341 01:58:58,747 --> 01:59:03,707 Speaker 19: in our own half and then I set piece was struggling, 2342 01:59:04,027 --> 01:59:06,867 Speaker 19: and then there and we lead a problem a pretty 2343 01:59:06,907 --> 01:59:11,187 Speaker 19: couple easy tries and to be fair, so yeah, we'll 2344 01:59:11,227 --> 01:59:14,947 Speaker 19: have a look at that tomorrow, I suppose. But yeah, 2345 01:59:15,027 --> 01:59:17,947 Speaker 19: pretty grateful we have a scrape win there, because, to 2346 01:59:17,987 --> 01:59:19,947 Speaker 19: be fear, we didn't close it out as well as 2347 01:59:19,987 --> 01:59:20,947 Speaker 19: we should have had. 2348 01:59:20,907 --> 01:59:22,907 Speaker 2: You started to prepare yourself for extra time. 2349 01:59:25,147 --> 01:59:29,747 Speaker 19: Yeah, I did have that thought. But yeah, I was 2350 01:59:29,867 --> 01:59:32,907 Speaker 19: pretty pretty desperate to get that penalty over because, to 2351 01:59:32,947 --> 01:59:36,347 Speaker 19: be honest, the lungs were hurting. I was keen just 2352 01:59:36,507 --> 01:59:39,827 Speaker 19: to end it there and avoid the extra extra time. 2353 01:59:40,027 --> 01:59:41,587 Speaker 2: I guess the other option would have been to kick 2354 01:59:41,627 --> 01:59:43,427 Speaker 2: for the line right and set up and move from 2355 01:59:43,467 --> 01:59:45,067 Speaker 2: a line out or something like that. But but that 2356 01:59:45,267 --> 01:59:47,547 Speaker 2: wasn't even disgusting. You just said, no, no, this is me, 2357 01:59:47,667 --> 01:59:48,187 Speaker 2: I'm taking this. 2358 01:59:49,867 --> 01:59:50,067 Speaker 17: Yeah. 2359 01:59:50,147 --> 01:59:51,187 Speaker 19: I wasn't even discussed. 2360 01:59:51,227 --> 01:59:51,547 Speaker 23: I just. 2361 01:59:53,427 --> 01:59:55,427 Speaker 19: Yeah, I just I just wanted to have a crack 2362 01:59:55,467 --> 01:59:57,987 Speaker 19: and I knew that I'd probably about have the leg, 2363 01:59:58,107 --> 02:00:00,827 Speaker 19: so yeah, why not why not give it a go? 2364 02:00:01,387 --> 02:00:05,587 Speaker 2: Absolutely, and you're half back.
