Yeah, really good. So it's on track 78 00:03:31,972 --> 00:03:34,853 Speaker 2: to open up. So that certainly is so positive for Christies. 79 00:03:34,893 --> 00:03:36,973 Speaker 2: You're right, Tyler, absolutely right. 80 00:03:37,013 --> 00:03:39,653 Speaker 4: Onto today's show after three o'clock, let's have a chat 81 00:03:39,693 --> 00:03:42,053 Speaker 4: about dog tacks. They have been in the news out 82 00:03:42,093 --> 00:03:45,213 Speaker 4: of a lot over recent years. The latest was a 83 00:03:45,293 --> 00:03:48,613 Speaker 4: rampaging pitbull which launched itself from a moving vehicle and 84 00:03:48,653 --> 00:03:51,093 Speaker 4: stormed into an Auckland jewelry store while attempting to go 85 00:03:51,133 --> 00:03:54,013 Speaker 4: for a little lap dog and it obviously spotted in store, 86 00:03:54,093 --> 00:03:57,813 Speaker 4: latching onto them an employee in the process. So that was, 87 00:03:57,973 --> 00:04:00,933 Speaker 4: I mean, a very dramatic and full noise situation. But 88 00:04:01,493 --> 00:04:04,693 Speaker 4: this has probably been a situation that many people have 89 00:04:04,933 --> 00:04:07,813 Speaker 4: been in themselves, as in been rushed by a dog 90 00:04:08,093 --> 00:04:10,293 Speaker 4: or to face up with the dog that might be 91 00:04:10,333 --> 00:04:11,013 Speaker 4: about to have a go. 92 00:04:11,613 --> 00:04:13,973 Speaker 2: Yeah. Absolutely, a pitbull jumping out of a car and 93 00:04:14,053 --> 00:04:17,373 Speaker 2: running into a Michael Hill jewelers is to attack a 94 00:04:17,413 --> 00:04:19,533 Speaker 2: lap dog. I mean that's not ideal, is it? And 95 00:04:19,933 --> 00:04:24,212 Speaker 2: you know, feel for this employee, Stacy Penn. She jumped 96 00:04:24,213 --> 00:04:27,533 Speaker 2: out to protect the customer and her kvoodle, and she 97 00:04:27,653 --> 00:04:32,573 Speaker 2: claims to it's ended her twenty year career in jewelry, 98 00:04:32,693 --> 00:04:38,053 Speaker 2: so not great. And look the mutt is the owner 99 00:04:38,053 --> 00:04:41,853 Speaker 2: has received an infringement order and the dog has to 100 00:04:41,893 --> 00:04:45,533 Speaker 2: be muzzled and muted. But is that enough of a 101 00:04:45,533 --> 00:04:48,893 Speaker 2: punishment for a dog that's so angry that it will 102 00:04:48,973 --> 00:04:52,533 Speaker 2: jump out of a moving car? Or is that just life? 103 00:04:52,653 --> 00:04:54,773 Speaker 2: Dogs will be dogs and we love them, and every 104 00:04:54,813 --> 00:04:56,253 Speaker 2: now and then there's going to be incidents like this, 105 00:04:56,373 --> 00:05:00,173 Speaker 2: but the overall general good is such that we don't 106 00:05:00,173 --> 00:05:02,053 Speaker 2: want to punish people too much. When this happens, you know, 107 00:05:02,093 --> 00:05:03,933 Speaker 2: it'll be a great chat. We've already got hundreds and 108 00:05:03,973 --> 00:05:04,933 Speaker 2: hundreds of texts on this. 109 00:05:04,933 --> 00:05:06,493 Speaker 3: So it's it's come through. 110 00:05:06,613 --> 00:05:08,213 Speaker 2: It's really firing up, Tyler. 111 00:05:08,613 --> 00:05:10,213 Speaker 3: It's going to be a hot one after three o'clock. 112 00:05:10,253 --> 00:05:10,973 Speaker 3: After two o'clock. 113 00:05:10,973 --> 00:05:13,613 Speaker 4: Appreciating referees in New Zealand, so many would know the 114 00:05:13,693 --> 00:05:17,253 Speaker 4: name Ben O'Keefe, renowned rugby referee and one of the 115 00:05:17,253 --> 00:05:19,373 Speaker 4: referees who actually pushed back a bit on some of 116 00:05:19,373 --> 00:05:22,213 Speaker 4: the online abuse he has had in the past. He 117 00:05:22,293 --> 00:05:24,653 Speaker 4: mentioned it again in a recent interview with Shane curry 118 00:05:24,693 --> 00:05:27,653 Speaker 4: about how well kewis, how well known, Rather key is 119 00:05:27,653 --> 00:05:29,413 Speaker 4: a feeling about the state of the country right now. 120 00:05:29,453 --> 00:05:32,133 Speaker 4: One of the things he said he dislikes is still 121 00:05:32,173 --> 00:05:35,573 Speaker 4: that online pylon that seems to be ingrained in New 122 00:05:35,653 --> 00:05:38,573 Speaker 4: Zealand when it comes to referees and do we appreciate 123 00:05:38,773 --> 00:05:40,333 Speaker 4: the job they do enough? This is going to be 124 00:05:40,373 --> 00:05:41,173 Speaker 4: an interesting chat. 125 00:05:41,373 --> 00:05:43,573 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, the online pilon is one thing, but 126 00:05:43,613 --> 00:05:47,373 Speaker 2: it's also the side of feel the sideline pilon, which 127 00:05:47,413 --> 00:05:50,333 Speaker 2: is a much bigger issue because, as I keep saying, 128 00:05:50,813 --> 00:05:53,813 Speaker 2: the referees are so important. Sport is so important in 129 00:05:53,853 --> 00:05:57,413 Speaker 2: our community. We need it with young people need to 130 00:05:57,413 --> 00:05:59,213 Speaker 2: be getting out and they need to be spending time 131 00:05:59,253 --> 00:06:02,293 Speaker 2: with other young people in it. And the purpose that 132 00:06:02,333 --> 00:06:04,173 Speaker 2: you get from being in a rugby team is huge. 133 00:06:04,173 --> 00:06:06,413 Speaker 2: And I personally think rugby is the best team sport 134 00:06:06,453 --> 00:06:10,973 Speaker 2: because there's a place for people of every size, you know, big, small, 135 00:06:10,973 --> 00:06:13,653 Speaker 2: There's a place for everyone, even little wieners like you, Tyler. 136 00:06:13,693 --> 00:06:15,893 Speaker 2: There's a place. There's a place for you. 137 00:06:16,013 --> 00:06:18,373 Speaker 3: Saying that make for yeah, but it doesn't work costantly. 138 00:06:18,573 --> 00:06:20,813 Speaker 2: It's also an incredibly complex game, so it doesn't work 139 00:06:20,853 --> 00:06:22,613 Speaker 2: without officiating. So if we have a culture in the 140 00:06:22,613 --> 00:06:26,013 Speaker 2: society where we're just ragging on refs, not just online 141 00:06:26,333 --> 00:06:29,533 Speaker 2: but even yelling at the TV when your kids are around, 142 00:06:29,573 --> 00:06:31,933 Speaker 2: and just making it hard for people to be refs. 143 00:06:32,213 --> 00:06:34,653 Speaker 2: Then I don't know how the game can can survive. 144 00:06:34,773 --> 00:06:38,373 Speaker 2: And further to that, we have Rob Harmon, president of 145 00:06:38,373 --> 00:06:40,733 Speaker 2: the Eukland Rugby Referees Association, coming on the show as 146 00:06:40,773 --> 00:06:43,533 Speaker 2: well to talk about how it all works at the 147 00:06:44,333 --> 00:06:47,013 Speaker 2: you know, the grassroots level of rugby in New Zealand. 148 00:06:47,053 --> 00:06:48,373 Speaker 2: So I'm really looking forward to that chat. I think 149 00:06:48,373 --> 00:06:49,933 Speaker 2: it's an important thing for us to discuss. 150 00:06:50,373 --> 00:06:50,973 Speaker 3: Absolutely. 151 00:06:51,053 --> 00:06:53,613 Speaker 4: That is after tooklopper right now, let's have a chat 152 00:06:53,733 --> 00:06:56,693 Speaker 4: about dental care in New Zealand. So the Dental Association, 153 00:06:56,813 --> 00:07:00,253 Speaker 4: as we know, have released their Oral Health Roadmap twenty 154 00:07:00,293 --> 00:07:03,613 Speaker 4: twenty five to twenty twenty thirty. They're calling our situation 155 00:07:03,773 --> 00:07:06,813 Speaker 4: and oral health crisis and key to their recommendations was 156 00:07:06,853 --> 00:07:11,173 Speaker 4: a levy on sugary j drinks and better labeling. So 157 00:07:11,213 --> 00:07:13,413 Speaker 4: this has been floated around for some time, the idea 158 00:07:13,453 --> 00:07:16,573 Speaker 4: of taxing sugary drinks or a sugar tax in general. 159 00:07:16,893 --> 00:07:19,373 Speaker 4: Clearly the Dental Association has been pushing for this for 160 00:07:19,413 --> 00:07:22,493 Speaker 4: a long time, but it's bound to be a little 161 00:07:22,493 --> 00:07:25,253 Speaker 4: bit controversial. Matt Heath about the idea of checking another 162 00:07:25,413 --> 00:07:28,333 Speaker 4: tax onto the poor suffering New Zealand people. 163 00:07:28,893 --> 00:07:31,413 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it is interesting. And look, I'll attempt 164 00:07:31,413 --> 00:07:33,293 Speaker 2: this word again that I've never been able to pronounce, 165 00:07:33,333 --> 00:07:35,093 Speaker 2: but I'm going to. For some reason, we have certain 166 00:07:35,133 --> 00:07:37,213 Speaker 2: words that we just can't get out, and this is 167 00:07:37,253 --> 00:07:42,213 Speaker 2: one for me. It's potentially not even a word.

So it's much easier just to hand that 341 00:15:49,453 --> 00:15:52,053 Speaker 7: over and yet you know, five or six percent less 342 00:15:52,053 --> 00:15:56,013 Speaker 7: commission overall and then just give it to someone else, 343 00:15:56,053 --> 00:15:58,532 Speaker 7: you know, to do the whole thing. So that's what's 344 00:15:58,533 --> 00:16:00,253 Speaker 7: happening all around the world. Happened in the UK, and 345 00:16:00,373 --> 00:16:03,133 Speaker 7: looking over there, happens in Australia, and it's happening here 346 00:16:03,133 --> 00:16:03,453 Speaker 7: as well. 347 00:16:04,853 --> 00:16:06,893 Speaker 4: So the idea of a sugary text just to write 348 00:16:06,853 --> 00:16:08,213 Speaker 4: it back to that, Do you think it will make 349 00:16:08,413 --> 00:16:09,573 Speaker 4: any difference if that? 350 00:16:11,173 --> 00:16:11,293 Speaker 5: No? 351 00:16:11,693 --> 00:16:12,773 Speaker 3: And why no? 352 00:16:13,013 --> 00:16:15,653 Speaker 7: I just don't. I mean, I think people are certain 353 00:16:15,813 --> 00:16:17,493 Speaker 7: ingrained and what they like and what they don't like, 354 00:16:17,533 --> 00:16:19,453 Speaker 7: and if something is ten to ten more expensive, they're 355 00:16:19,453 --> 00:16:22,973 Speaker 7: not going to change. So I don't think it will happen. 356 00:16:23,413 --> 00:16:25,293 Speaker 7: I think people have got to sort of educate themselves 357 00:16:25,293 --> 00:16:27,813 Speaker 7: from a young age not to consume sugar products in 358 00:16:27,813 --> 00:16:30,573 Speaker 7: the first place. That's the issue, and that's education from 359 00:16:30,573 --> 00:16:34,013 Speaker 7: their parents. You know, if the sugary drink is one 360 00:16:34,053 --> 00:16:36,053 Speaker 7: dollar ten compared to one dollar, people still going to 361 00:16:36,053 --> 00:16:39,933 Speaker 7: buy it. You know, I'm probably I'm not sitting in 362 00:16:39,933 --> 00:16:41,493 Speaker 7: with the rest of the dentist, but that's what I think. 363 00:16:41,493 --> 00:16:43,693 Speaker 7: I think the sugary tax will make much difference at all. 364 00:16:44,173 --> 00:16:46,053 Speaker 2: All right, Hey, thank you so much for those insights, John, 365 00:16:46,093 --> 00:16:48,493 Speaker 2: really interesting.

Is it unfairly demonized the cost we 372 00:17:02,933 --> 00:17:06,013 Speaker 4: pay for a dentistry work? And can you see any 373 00:17:06,013 --> 00:17:08,572 Speaker 4: mirrit in this idea of a sugar tax? It is 374 00:17:08,573 --> 00:17:09,493 Speaker 4: twenty four past one. 375 00:17:09,933 --> 00:17:11,812 Speaker 2: Why should I be tax extra when I buy a 376 00:17:11,853 --> 00:17:15,293 Speaker 2: can of coke just because some irdiots can't brush their teeth? 377 00:17:15,533 --> 00:17:17,533 Speaker 2: That's an interesting point.

I mean, that's such a good 570 00:26:31,653 --> 00:26:35,853 Speaker 2: point that the genes play such a massive role in 571 00:26:35,893 --> 00:26:38,213 Speaker 2: the health of your teeth. Although I agree with Matt 572 00:26:38,213 --> 00:26:40,893 Speaker 2: about muppets, but maybe we do need to be treated 573 00:26:40,933 --> 00:26:43,253 Speaker 2: as children. You've seen that, You've seen the state of 574 00:26:43,333 --> 00:26:48,133 Speaker 2: public toilets. People clearly can't wipe their butts, so the 575 00:26:48,253 --> 00:26:50,893 Speaker 2: technical aspects of teeth brushing is a step too far. 576 00:26:51,653 --> 00:26:54,333 Speaker 2: We are doomed. See I've got a theory on the 577 00:26:54,333 --> 00:26:57,893 Speaker 2: discussing state of public toilets. I think it's not accidents. 578 00:26:58,053 --> 00:27:01,813 Speaker 2: I think people soil them on purpose, much like a 579 00:27:01,893 --> 00:27:05,333 Speaker 2: dog leaves, you know, wheeze on a tree to mark 580 00:27:05,333 --> 00:27:08,213 Speaker 2: their territory. I mean, there's no way that the bathroom 581 00:27:08,413 --> 00:27:12,253 Speaker 2: that bars and public toilets can be that way. Even 582 00:27:12,573 --> 00:27:17,333 Speaker 2: downstairs that enzed me. There's the bathrooms down there. Chapers 583 00:27:17,413 --> 00:27:20,773 Speaker 2: Gate two and Game three get destroyed daily down there. 584 00:27:20,893 --> 00:27:23,773 Speaker 2: An absolute state, absolute state, and there's no way that 585 00:27:23,813 --> 00:27:27,333 Speaker 2: there's people out there that just can't can get into 586 00:27:27,333 --> 00:27:28,853 Speaker 2: this building but can't operate a. 587 00:27:31,053 --> 00:27:33,013 Speaker 3: Was what did you call them? We want to go 588 00:27:33,053 --> 00:27:35,613 Speaker 3: fecal terrorists? And I think that sums them up. 589 00:27:35,653 --> 00:27:38,733 Speaker 4: I mean, what kind of insane person would mark their 590 00:27:38,813 --> 00:27:41,933 Speaker 4: territory with a bit of fecal terrorism? I mean clearly, 591 00:27:42,373 --> 00:27:44,133 Speaker 4: I mean their teeth must be a sorry state as well. 592 00:27:44,173 --> 00:27:48,413 Speaker 2: Actually, yeah, well let's not go this. I guarantee fecal terrorists. 593 00:27:48,453 --> 00:27:50,292 Speaker 2: I reckon someone needs to do a study and compare 594 00:27:50,293 --> 00:27:54,933 Speaker 2: the teeth of fecal terrorists compared to people that can 595 00:27:55,053 --> 00:27:57,573 Speaker 2: use the bathroom properly, or choose to use the bathroom properly. 596 00:27:57,893 --> 00:28:00,973 Speaker 2: I reckon us people that use the bathroom's respect would 597 00:28:01,013 --> 00:28:03,533 Speaker 2: have much whiter and cleaner teeth. Guys, not to go 598 00:28:03,573 --> 00:28:05,933 Speaker 2: old Jack Reacher on you, it's the brushing that's important 599 00:28:06,053 --> 00:28:09,973 Speaker 2: mint for smell between Z zero to sixteen small fluorid 600 00:28:09,973 --> 00:28:12,973 Speaker 2: tab You will you, you will do this?

Okay, Maybe the 602 00:28:15,853 --> 00:28:18,853 Speaker 2: Dentist Association should encourage dentists to reduce their prices, making 603 00:28:18,893 --> 00:28:21,453 Speaker 2: them more affordable. Then people might be able to afford 604 00:28:21,453 --> 00:28:23,333 Speaker 2: an appointment. Maybe it's just the era I live in, 605 00:28:23,853 --> 00:28:26,373 Speaker 2: but waiting lists for an appointment are very long. Yeah, 606 00:28:26,413 --> 00:28:27,813 Speaker 2: but I mean that's not the problem. That's the that 607 00:28:28,173 --> 00:28:30,133 Speaker 2: those kind of going to the dentists.

They've got primarily silver, 732 00:34:29,613 --> 00:34:31,693 Speaker 2: they've got tin, they've got copper, they got mercury. But 733 00:34:31,733 --> 00:34:34,453 Speaker 2: now the mercury is bound so it's it doesn't get 734 00:34:34,493 --> 00:34:36,453 Speaker 2: into your system. Is that right?

Is that is that true? 748 00:35:10,813 --> 00:35:12,333 Speaker 2: I mean, my mum wouldn't lie. 749 00:35:12,253 --> 00:35:15,652 Speaker 15: But no, she wouldn't lie. And and I remember that 750 00:35:15,733 --> 00:35:18,653 Speaker 15: as a child, we used to go and my friend's 751 00:35:18,733 --> 00:35:21,093 Speaker 15: mother was a dental nurse, and we used to go 752 00:35:21,133 --> 00:35:23,413 Speaker 15: and visit her, and she'd put it in a little 753 00:35:23,493 --> 00:35:27,933 Speaker 15: boo box which was part of our equipment, and we'd 754 00:35:27,933 --> 00:35:31,373 Speaker 15: watch it float around and then join together. You're correct, 755 00:35:31,533 --> 00:35:34,172 Speaker 15: but I just do that.

If there was extensive work, we 774 00:36:28,413 --> 00:36:33,613 Speaker 15: would definitely be contacting Paris and letting them know. Yeah, 775 00:36:33,653 --> 00:36:36,692 Speaker 15: but a lot of our work was actually we did. 776 00:36:36,893 --> 00:36:39,373 Speaker 15: We used to go into the classroom and spend time 777 00:36:40,053 --> 00:36:43,652 Speaker 15: in the class doing dental health lessons and things like that. 778 00:36:45,613 --> 00:36:49,413 Speaker 15: I wasn't at my time, there wasn't huge pressure on 779 00:36:49,893 --> 00:36:53,013 Speaker 15: treating the children. We saw the children every six months. 780 00:36:53,413 --> 00:36:57,333 Speaker 15: We would do the dental health lessons and see the 781 00:36:57,653 --> 00:37:00,213 Speaker 15: little children before they went to school, see them and 782 00:37:00,693 --> 00:37:05,493 Speaker 15: introduce them to you know, God, or or hygiene.

So I always thought she died from 790 00:37:24,813 --> 00:37:27,773 Speaker 2: mercury poisoning, and I thought it was hugely She was 791 00:37:27,773 --> 00:37:30,213 Speaker 2: the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, and she 792 00:37:30,253 --> 00:37:32,333 Speaker 2: won it twice actually for her field. But I always 793 00:37:32,373 --> 00:37:35,253 Speaker 2: thought it was ironic that she died of mercury poison poisoning. 794 00:37:35,773 --> 00:37:41,733 Speaker 2: But no, disappointingly, she died from exposure to radiation in 795 00:37:41,773 --> 00:37:43,213 Speaker 2: the course of her scientific research. 796 00:37:43,573 --> 00:37:44,613 Speaker 3: Well that's still pretty fall on. 797 00:37:44,773 --> 00:37:46,693 Speaker 2: Now it's full on that she died that way, absolutely, 798 00:37:46,733 --> 00:37:48,493 Speaker 2: but I always thought it was I don't know why 799 00:37:48,493 --> 00:37:50,853 Speaker 2: I thought she died. Her name was Marie Curry and 800 00:37:50,893 --> 00:37:53,413 Speaker 2: she died of mercury poisoning. I had that one wrong. 801 00:37:54,133 --> 00:37:55,933 Speaker 3: Very good ride back, very shortly. 802 00:37:56,173 --> 00:38:00,333 Speaker 1: It's eight to two, Matt Heath, Tyler Adams taking your 803 00:38:00,373 --> 00:38:03,013 Speaker 1: calls on eight hundred and eighty ten eighty.

The Dental Associations has been calling 808 00:38:13,893 --> 00:38:16,013 Speaker 4: for it. Plenty of tacks coming through on this one. 809 00:38:16,093 --> 00:38:18,133 Speaker 2: Hi, they introduced sugar tacks in Britain and noticed to 810 00:38:18,173 --> 00:38:19,973 Speaker 2: drop and tooth decay. So I think it's a good 811 00:38:20,013 --> 00:38:22,053 Speaker 2: idea for dental health. Meg, Well, maybe it's a good 812 00:38:22,053 --> 00:38:26,013 Speaker 2: idea for dental health. But their mental ramifications and the 813 00:38:26,053 --> 00:38:28,693 Speaker 2: mental health ratifications of constantly telling the population of a 814 00:38:28,733 --> 00:38:31,053 Speaker 2: country that they're babies, that they're not even good enough, 815 00:38:31,373 --> 00:38:33,573 Speaker 2: and they're not even competent enough to look after their teeth. 816 00:38:33,573 --> 00:38:36,053 Speaker 2: I think I think that that can start to get 817 00:38:36,053 --> 00:38:39,053 Speaker 2: to people. You're useless, you can't even doing anything. Next thing, 818 00:38:39,053 --> 00:38:42,293 Speaker 2: you know, we're having to go into the bathroom with 819 00:38:42,333 --> 00:38:45,172 Speaker 2: them with some tpee. Your Mum's right. We had all 820 00:38:45,213 --> 00:38:47,653 Speaker 2: mercury fillings back then and would sit in the waiting 821 00:38:47,693 --> 00:38:49,813 Speaker 2: room playing with a blob of mercury that would run 822 00:38:49,853 --> 00:38:52,533 Speaker 2: on your hands back and forth likeily.

It's Matt Heath and Taylor 854 00:40:19,053 --> 00:40:21,333 Speaker 1: Adams afternoons news talks. 855 00:40:21,373 --> 00:40:21,613 Speaker 12: It be. 856 00:40:28,573 --> 00:40:31,893 Speaker 4: Your company as always, So do we have an issue 857 00:40:31,893 --> 00:40:33,733 Speaker 4: with the way that we treat referees in New Zealand. 858 00:40:33,773 --> 00:40:35,533 Speaker 4: It was a cool story in The Herald yesterday. It 859 00:40:35,573 --> 00:40:38,253 Speaker 4: was part of Shane Curry's Great New Zealand road trip 860 00:40:38,413 --> 00:40:41,293 Speaker 4: where Shane is traveling around the country taking the temperature 861 00:40:41,453 --> 00:40:43,653 Speaker 4: of the mood of the nation. He's chatting to kiwis 862 00:40:43,653 --> 00:40:46,453 Speaker 4: from all walks of life, including some of our biggest achievers, 863 00:40:46,493 --> 00:40:50,253 Speaker 4: and one of those people was world renowned rugby referee 864 00:40:50,253 --> 00:40:53,093 Speaker 4: Ben O'Keeffe, And it was just great to actually see 865 00:40:53,093 --> 00:40:55,853 Speaker 4: one of our greats, one of our best referees, one 866 00:40:55,853 --> 00:40:59,013 Speaker 4: of the best referees in the world, herod and celebrated 867 00:40:59,133 --> 00:41:02,652 Speaker 4: for his amazing success and the work that he's done. 868 00:41:02,733 --> 00:41:05,853 Speaker 2: Matt, Yeah, absolutely, I mean, as I keep saying, you know, 869 00:41:05,933 --> 00:41:09,533 Speaker 2: referees are so important, you know, is really important. Sport 870 00:41:09,613 --> 00:41:12,733 Speaker 2: is important for young people. Sport is actually important for 871 00:41:12,773 --> 00:41:15,693 Speaker 2: people of every age, but especially Rugby union is a 872 00:41:15,693 --> 00:41:19,613 Speaker 2: sport that absolutely needs officiating. It has an incredibly long, 873 00:41:19,733 --> 00:41:23,573 Speaker 2: complicated rule book. You know, you compare the rule book 874 00:41:24,093 --> 00:41:29,613 Speaker 2: of ropy union to soccer football, so much more complicated, 875 00:41:29,613 --> 00:41:31,733 Speaker 2: and it needs officiators out there. So if sport is 876 00:41:31,733 --> 00:41:33,172 Speaker 2: going to do the good in the community, then we 877 00:41:33,213 --> 00:41:36,013 Speaker 2: need refs at all levels. And to get refs at 878 00:41:36,013 --> 00:41:38,933 Speaker 2: all levels, we need to treat them well so people 879 00:41:38,933 --> 00:41:40,413 Speaker 2: want to get into it and want to devote that 880 00:41:40,493 --> 00:41:43,453 Speaker 2: much of their life to the job. So if we're 881 00:41:43,453 --> 00:41:45,493 Speaker 2: always just abusing refs on the couch in front of 882 00:41:45,573 --> 00:41:49,692 Speaker 2: our kids or on social media or screaming them from 883 00:41:49,733 --> 00:41:56,652 Speaker 2: the sideline at school level games or higher, then we're 884 00:41:56,693 --> 00:41:59,692 Speaker 2: really what you're doing is in my belief, undercutting the game, 885 00:41:59,973 --> 00:42:02,133 Speaker 2: and you're undercutting the ability of the game to go 886 00:42:02,253 --> 00:42:05,172 Speaker 2: forward if you keep doing that. So I think it's 887 00:42:05,173 --> 00:42:07,973 Speaker 2: something that's worth discussion discussing. So that was great to 888 00:42:07,973 --> 00:42:11,613 Speaker 2: see Curry's article. We're heroing a referee as opposed to 889 00:42:11,693 --> 00:42:12,773 Speaker 2: villainizing one. 890 00:42:13,053 --> 00:42:15,652 Speaker 4: Absolutely, I wait under an eighty ten eighty Really keen 891 00:42:15,693 --> 00:42:17,453 Speaker 4: to have a chat with you on this one. If 892 00:42:17,493 --> 00:42:19,533 Speaker 4: you're in the refereeing game. Do we have a problem 893 00:42:19,533 --> 00:42:21,172 Speaker 4: here in New Zealand with the way that we treat 894 00:42:21,293 --> 00:42:24,333 Speaker 4: reefs and the abuse that gets thrown out at the 895 00:42:24,373 --> 00:42:28,493 Speaker 4: sidelines and often online. Really keen to to have this discussion. 896 00:42:28,533 --> 00:42:30,813 Speaker 4: Nine two ninety two is the text number. If we 897 00:42:30,853 --> 00:42:32,933 Speaker 4: do have an issue, how do we change that around? 898 00:42:33,093 --> 00:42:35,013 Speaker 4: As you were saying, Matt starts at home. If you're 899 00:42:35,013 --> 00:42:37,133 Speaker 4: screaming at the Italian we've all been guilty of there, 900 00:42:37,133 --> 00:42:40,053 Speaker 4: well most of us anyway. Is that the thing that 901 00:42:40,093 --> 00:42:43,093 Speaker 4: needs to stop and be you know, it starts with 902 00:42:44,053 --> 00:42:46,013 Speaker 4: what the children are seeing you yelling at the at 903 00:42:46,053 --> 00:42:48,013 Speaker 4: the screen. That's probably a big part of it, right, Well, 904 00:42:48,013 --> 00:42:49,732 Speaker 4: I certainly saw my old man scream at the TV 905 00:42:49,813 --> 00:42:50,053 Speaker 4: a lot. 906 00:42:50,333 --> 00:42:53,373 Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, I mean it's understandable, you know, because if 907 00:42:53,413 --> 00:42:55,533 Speaker 2: you're really passionate about a game and you feel like 908 00:42:56,013 --> 00:42:58,093 Speaker 2: a referee is made a mistake. I mean, let's be honest, 909 00:42:58,133 --> 00:42:59,493 Speaker 2: most of the time people are screaming at the TV, 910 00:42:59,533 --> 00:43:01,732 Speaker 2: it's that they don't know the rule specially, I mean, 911 00:43:01,733 --> 00:43:04,053 Speaker 2: how many key we actually have their head completely around 912 00:43:04,133 --> 00:43:06,573 Speaker 2: the breakdown laws be I'd be interested the amount of 913 00:43:06,613 --> 00:43:09,172 Speaker 2: people that are screaming, you know, especially on sideline. They're 914 00:43:09,373 --> 00:43:11,773 Speaker 2: sixty meters back on a thirty three degree angle and 915 00:43:11,813 --> 00:43:13,693 Speaker 2: they're screaming at the ref for getting it wrong. But 916 00:43:13,773 --> 00:43:15,533 Speaker 2: so I get the passion because we care about it 917 00:43:15,573 --> 00:43:17,573 Speaker 2: and it's a and it's a part of the game 918 00:43:17,693 --> 00:43:21,173 Speaker 2: that we can focus our we focus our anger on 919 00:43:21,253 --> 00:43:24,253 Speaker 2: because it seems to affect us badly. But I don't know, 920 00:43:24,453 --> 00:43:25,733 Speaker 2: I don't know if it's a good way to go 921 00:43:25,773 --> 00:43:28,333 Speaker 2: forward if we if we do that, especially in front 922 00:43:28,373 --> 00:43:28,933 Speaker 2: of the kids, you know. 923 00:43:29,373 --> 00:43:31,732 Speaker 4: Yeah, Oh, eight hundred eighty, ten eighty is the number 924 00:43:31,733 --> 00:43:33,613 Speaker 4: to call.

What are 999 00:46:44,973 --> 00:46:46,053 Speaker 2: the tough parts been? 1000 00:46:46,813 --> 00:46:46,893 Speaker 20: Well? 1001 00:46:46,933 --> 00:46:48,692 Speaker 18: I think one of the tough thing is that like 1002 00:46:49,053 --> 00:46:51,053 Speaker 18: my personality, like I want to be good, I want 1003 00:46:51,053 --> 00:46:54,173 Speaker 18: to be perfect, and it's just a really hard job. 1004 00:46:54,373 --> 00:46:55,373 Speaker 19: And it is my job. 1005 00:46:55,373 --> 00:46:57,173 Speaker 18: It's a really hard job to actually do well and 1006 00:46:57,613 --> 00:47:00,813 Speaker 18: constantly because like I'm obviously constantly reviewing my games. We've 1007 00:47:00,813 --> 00:47:03,133 Speaker 18: got coaches review and my game's assess review of my games, 1008 00:47:03,133 --> 00:47:05,013 Speaker 18: and then you feel like, you know, the public reviews 1009 00:47:05,013 --> 00:47:07,453 Speaker 18: of your games as well, So it's really hard to and 1010 00:47:07,493 --> 00:47:09,373 Speaker 18: you can never actually get everyone sort of accepting that 1011 00:47:09,413 --> 00:47:10,212 Speaker 18: you've done a good job. 1012 00:47:10,293 --> 00:47:12,133 Speaker 19: So that's a big challenge. 1013 00:47:12,373 --> 00:47:14,013 Speaker 18: I think the challenge now that we're seeing a lot 1014 00:47:14,013 --> 00:47:16,333 Speaker 18: of them we've seen in the media too, is some 1015 00:47:16,373 --> 00:47:19,053 Speaker 18: of probably the abuse is happening on the sidelines, not 1016 00:47:19,133 --> 00:47:21,733 Speaker 18: just in international games. It's certainly just in the public 1017 00:47:21,773 --> 00:47:24,413 Speaker 18: and the community games we have, and then extends out 1018 00:47:24,613 --> 00:47:26,133 Speaker 18: to social media as well, which I think is a 1019 00:47:26,133 --> 00:47:27,813 Speaker 18: big problem in every sport. 1020 00:47:28,333 --> 00:47:32,333 Speaker 4: Their pressure that you undoubtedly feel as a referee, particularly 1021 00:47:32,373 --> 00:47:34,533 Speaker 4: at the higher levels, ben I take it there, your 1022 00:47:34,573 --> 00:47:37,333 Speaker 4: fellow referees, other colleagues feel that pressure as well. 1023 00:47:37,373 --> 00:47:38,292 Speaker 3: How do you deal with. 1024 00:47:38,213 --> 00:47:41,333 Speaker 4: That, particularly in the modern age where you are seeing 1025 00:47:41,333 --> 00:47:42,813 Speaker 4: that feedback and abuse come out. 1026 00:47:42,853 --> 00:47:46,173 Speaker 3: You're not just from the sidelines, but online, how. 1027 00:47:46,013 --> 00:47:48,333 Speaker 4: Do you know when you get home after a big 1028 00:47:48,373 --> 00:47:50,173 Speaker 4: game like that, how do you process that stuff? 1029 00:47:51,173 --> 00:47:52,213 Speaker 19: It is difficult. 1030 00:47:52,213 --> 00:47:53,692 Speaker 18: I think a lot of the pressure and we all 1031 00:47:53,693 --> 00:47:54,973 Speaker 18: do feel the same, you know, we want to do 1032 00:47:54,973 --> 00:47:56,773 Speaker 18: a good job. So the way I deal with a 1033 00:47:56,773 --> 00:47:58,373 Speaker 18: lot of pressure early on in the week is to 1034 00:47:58,373 --> 00:48:01,293 Speaker 18: prepare really well. So if I prepare really well for 1035 00:48:01,293 --> 00:48:04,373 Speaker 18: a game, so physically, mentally, and on the teams, and 1036 00:48:04,373 --> 00:48:05,733 Speaker 18: then I know I'm confident, so I can go in 1037 00:48:05,773 --> 00:48:07,453 Speaker 18: the game knowing that, look, I've done all I can. 1038 00:48:07,693 --> 00:48:10,093 Speaker 18: I'm going to do a good job. Even then you 1039 00:48:10,133 --> 00:48:12,933 Speaker 18: can make some mistakes, so I do a good review 1040 00:48:12,933 --> 00:48:15,413 Speaker 18: after the game, and it's all about learning. So that's 1041 00:48:15,453 --> 00:48:17,173 Speaker 18: that's kind of the learning cycle I do. So we 1042 00:48:17,253 --> 00:48:19,813 Speaker 18: can week out, I'm getting better. I try and close 1043 00:48:19,813 --> 00:48:22,373 Speaker 18: it there. But certainly some of the stuff that you 1044 00:48:22,933 --> 00:48:26,293 Speaker 18: see in the media, you know, there's only so much 1045 00:48:26,493 --> 00:48:28,212 Speaker 18: you can try and ignore it, and I really do. 1046 00:48:28,253 --> 00:48:30,893 Speaker 18: I try not to read the headlines or even the 1047 00:48:30,893 --> 00:48:33,413 Speaker 18: comments when games don't go well. I even have to 1048 00:48:33,413 --> 00:48:35,053 Speaker 18: do that when the games do go well, because you know, 1049 00:48:35,093 --> 00:48:36,893 Speaker 18: you can't just be searching for all the good things too, 1050 00:48:36,933 --> 00:48:40,652 Speaker 18: So it's it's difficult, it's been taking it's taken a 1051 00:48:40,693 --> 00:48:43,293 Speaker 18: lot of years probably just to be able to get 1052 00:48:43,333 --> 00:48:45,653 Speaker 18: used to it a lot better. So for someone on 1053 00:48:45,773 --> 00:48:48,053 Speaker 18: myself okay, been through a lot of it, that's a 1054 00:48:48,053 --> 00:48:49,653 Speaker 18: little bit easier to deal with. But I do feel 1055 00:48:49,693 --> 00:48:51,973 Speaker 18: for a lot of younger referees, not just in rugby 1056 00:48:52,013 --> 00:48:55,413 Speaker 18: but all sports who actually who aren't immune to this 1057 00:48:55,493 --> 00:48:58,333 Speaker 18: yet and they're going through it now at community levels, 1058 00:48:58,413 --> 00:49:01,133 Speaker 18: but you know also starting in the NBC, sup BROGI 1059 00:49:01,173 --> 00:49:02,013 Speaker 18: international levels. 1060 00:49:02,293 --> 00:49:04,652 Speaker 2: Do you think it's getting worse that that level of 1061 00:49:04,733 --> 00:49:07,293 Speaker 2: abuse that that referees get because you know, as I 1062 00:49:07,333 --> 00:49:08,893 Speaker 2: was saying in the intro to this, if we don't 1063 00:49:08,933 --> 00:49:11,732 Speaker 2: have refs, then there's no game. You know, there's no riff, 1064 00:49:11,773 --> 00:49:14,853 Speaker 2: there's no game. So if it's getting worse out of there, 1065 00:49:14,893 --> 00:49:17,453 Speaker 2: that that's not good for rugby as a whole. 1066 00:49:18,453 --> 00:49:20,413 Speaker 18: I think we're just adapting to what everyone's getting used 1067 00:49:20,453 --> 00:49:22,733 Speaker 18: to over the last or the decade. With you know, 1068 00:49:22,773 --> 00:49:26,933 Speaker 18: access to social media, access to things like fantasy rugula, 1069 00:49:27,013 --> 00:49:28,813 Speaker 18: people are actually, you know, in a good way, getting 1070 00:49:28,813 --> 00:49:31,213 Speaker 18: involved in sports a lot more online. 1071 00:49:31,293 --> 00:49:32,373 Speaker 19: You know, it's it's making it. 1072 00:49:32,293 --> 00:49:35,333 Speaker 18: More accessible to people globally, and that's what I love, 1073 00:49:35,373 --> 00:49:39,133 Speaker 18: you know, people who are a motive, who are passionate, who. 1074 00:49:39,013 --> 00:49:39,493 Speaker 19: Love the game. 1075 00:49:39,533 --> 00:49:42,093 Speaker 18: That's that's exactly what we want to try and bring 1076 00:49:42,213 --> 00:49:44,692 Speaker 18: up because it is an entertainment sport. So I think 1077 00:49:44,933 --> 00:49:46,933 Speaker 18: in some ways we're sort of trying to catch up 1078 00:49:46,933 --> 00:49:49,293 Speaker 18: with that in a way of how okay, we've got 1079 00:49:49,373 --> 00:49:53,493 Speaker 18: access to all this great media around sport, but how 1080 00:49:53,493 --> 00:49:55,652 Speaker 18: do we how to just temper it to make sure 1081 00:49:55,733 --> 00:49:59,333 Speaker 18: we protect our referees Because as I heard you guys 1082 00:49:59,333 --> 00:50:01,733 Speaker 18: saying before that, you know, it's all very well doing 1083 00:50:01,813 --> 00:50:04,053 Speaker 18: it on the TV and yelling at a player or 1084 00:50:04,133 --> 00:50:06,093 Speaker 18: yelling at a referee, but you know, as soon as 1085 00:50:06,133 --> 00:50:09,933 Speaker 18: that starts transcending down to the fields in the community levels, 1086 00:50:09,933 --> 00:50:11,252 Speaker 18: I think that's where it's quite quite poor. 1087 00:50:11,693 --> 00:50:14,053 Speaker 2: So do you think some work could be done around 1088 00:50:14,253 --> 00:50:17,813 Speaker 2: just our culture of blaming the red? Is there some 1089 00:50:18,653 --> 00:50:22,093 Speaker 2: is there some kind of education that could get out there, 1090 00:50:22,173 --> 00:50:24,172 Speaker 2: some kind of information that people know. I mean, it's 1091 00:50:24,173 --> 00:50:26,133 Speaker 2: great you you being in the public eye and doing 1092 00:50:26,133 --> 00:50:28,533 Speaker 2: the story with Shane Carrion, Thanks for talking to us today, 1093 00:50:28,573 --> 00:50:31,493 Speaker 2: because then you actually humanize the referee rather than just 1094 00:50:31,533 --> 00:50:34,172 Speaker 2: being the focus of people's anger because their team isn't 1095 00:50:34,213 --> 00:50:36,093 Speaker 2: doing as well as they want. If you see what 1096 00:50:36,133 --> 00:50:37,933 Speaker 2: I mean, you think there's if you've thought about how 1097 00:50:38,133 --> 00:50:40,493 Speaker 2: how the culture could be changed, yeah. 1098 00:50:40,293 --> 00:50:42,292 Speaker 19: I think there's definitely there needs to be a culture change, 1099 00:50:42,333 --> 00:50:43,093 Speaker 19: not just in New Zealand. 1100 00:50:43,093 --> 00:50:44,853 Speaker 18: This is a global problem and not just in rugby. 1101 00:50:44,933 --> 00:50:47,652 Speaker 18: So it's all sports, isn't it. So I'm big one 1102 00:50:47,693 --> 00:50:50,212 Speaker 18: trying to use my position to just make people more aware. 1103 00:50:50,253 --> 00:50:55,653 Speaker 18: I know there's companies like or campaigns an Auckland like Active. 1104 00:50:56,493 --> 00:50:58,773 Speaker 18: You love the games that the campaigns try and actually make, 1105 00:50:59,813 --> 00:51:02,533 Speaker 18: you know, people not just support referees, but support you know, 1106 00:51:02,973 --> 00:51:04,973 Speaker 18: kids and players, because you're right, if we don't have 1107 00:51:05,133 --> 00:51:06,813 Speaker 18: if we don't have referees, we don't have the game. 1108 00:51:06,853 --> 00:51:08,653 Speaker 18: But also if we don't have kids and join the 1109 00:51:08,693 --> 00:51:10,173 Speaker 18: game as well, we don't have the game. Eve So 1110 00:51:10,813 --> 00:51:13,133 Speaker 18: there's definitely a cultural thing. I think we're seeing a 1111 00:51:13,213 --> 00:51:15,333 Speaker 18: lot more like your stories in the media because there 1112 00:51:15,373 --> 00:51:17,173 Speaker 18: is more awareness of it. So I think in a 1113 00:51:17,213 --> 00:51:19,533 Speaker 18: roundab ways, right, that is that is a good thing. 1114 00:51:19,573 --> 00:51:23,213 Speaker 18: So people are talking about it more. There are headlines 1115 00:51:23,213 --> 00:51:25,373 Speaker 18: more because people are saying, actually, well, this isn't right, 1116 00:51:25,413 --> 00:51:27,373 Speaker 18: you know, there's we can. We can love the game, 1117 00:51:27,413 --> 00:51:29,053 Speaker 18: we can support the game, but I think it does 1118 00:51:29,093 --> 00:51:32,373 Speaker 18: cross the line when you know we're trying to you know, blame, 1119 00:51:32,453 --> 00:51:34,773 Speaker 18: blame referees for it, and especially if we're not willing 1120 00:51:34,773 --> 00:51:35,293 Speaker 18: to give it a go. 1121 00:51:35,493 --> 00:51:37,053 Speaker 19: So I think that's it's. 1122 00:51:36,933 --> 00:51:39,692 Speaker 18: A tough job and a lot of volunteers out there 1123 00:51:39,773 --> 00:51:41,652 Speaker 18: do it because they love the game too, So I 1124 00:51:41,733 --> 00:51:43,293 Speaker 18: just think we should we should always take that into 1125 00:51:43,293 --> 00:51:43,853 Speaker 18: the can as well. 1126 00:51:44,493 --> 00:51:46,533 Speaker 2: Yeah, do you do you ever blame the ref when 1127 00:51:46,533 --> 00:51:48,573 Speaker 2: you're watching a game? No? 1128 00:51:48,733 --> 00:51:51,493 Speaker 19: No, no, never, never, And I promise you, I say, 1129 00:51:51,613 --> 00:51:52,453 Speaker 19: because I know what it's like. 1130 00:51:52,533 --> 00:51:54,692 Speaker 18: But but i'd also know what it's like, you know, 1131 00:51:54,693 --> 00:51:57,133 Speaker 18: playing sports where you know you can get a little 1132 00:51:57,133 --> 00:51:59,652 Speaker 18: bit passionate about, you know, a call that's been made, 1133 00:51:59,693 --> 00:52:01,613 Speaker 18: so you know there's nothing wrong with that, but it's 1134 00:52:01,653 --> 00:52:02,253 Speaker 18: just it's just. 1135 00:52:02,213 --> 00:52:04,813 Speaker 17: What you do outside of that. 1136 00:52:04,853 --> 00:52:07,813 Speaker 18: It's what you do when you know you're sitting on 1137 00:52:07,813 --> 00:52:09,813 Speaker 18: your phone, you thinking about making a comment on a 1138 00:52:09,893 --> 00:52:13,093 Speaker 18: on a headline or to someone's personal page. I think 1139 00:52:13,133 --> 00:52:14,813 Speaker 18: that's when you know, that's where the culture I think 1140 00:52:14,853 --> 00:52:17,933 Speaker 18: should stopped there. But certainly, you know, we want to 1141 00:52:17,973 --> 00:52:22,253 Speaker 18: love the it's about knowing with draw the line. 1142 00:52:22,173 --> 00:52:24,053 Speaker 2: And did you feel when you're coming up because obviously 1143 00:52:24,133 --> 00:52:26,093 Speaker 2: now you're you're out on the field, you're you know, 1144 00:52:26,133 --> 00:52:28,253 Speaker 2: you're at the top of the game. So actually on 1145 00:52:28,293 --> 00:52:31,973 Speaker 2: the field, your you know, security everywhere, But did you 1146 00:52:32,053 --> 00:52:34,213 Speaker 2: ever have issues when you were coming up through the 1147 00:52:34,253 --> 00:52:37,253 Speaker 2: and the and the absolute grassroots of the game where 1148 00:52:37,413 --> 00:52:40,613 Speaker 2: you felt unsafe, where your you know, your physical safety 1149 00:52:40,653 --> 00:52:41,093 Speaker 2: was that threat. 1150 00:52:42,373 --> 00:52:45,093 Speaker 18: It is interesting like after every Superbiam or test match, 1151 00:52:45,333 --> 00:52:47,893 Speaker 18: you don't always get security to walk you off the field, right, 1152 00:52:48,293 --> 00:52:51,613 Speaker 18: but when they do walk you off, you're like, Okay, 1153 00:52:51,693 --> 00:52:53,453 Speaker 18: they must have been something they're having the game, but 1154 00:52:53,493 --> 00:52:58,453 Speaker 18: that's always a good look. Yeah, your reviews were being done. 1155 00:52:58,453 --> 00:53:01,253 Speaker 18: But now look, coming up, I thought, I think we 1156 00:53:01,253 --> 00:53:05,133 Speaker 18: were quite fortunate. You know, I certainly believe that. You know, 1157 00:53:05,133 --> 00:53:08,212 Speaker 18: I grew up with as a junior, with senior referees who, 1158 00:53:08,653 --> 00:53:11,212 Speaker 18: you know, they didn't have social media on their phone, 1159 00:53:11,213 --> 00:53:12,692 Speaker 18: you know, if they didn't want to read about the game, 1160 00:53:12,733 --> 00:53:15,373 Speaker 18: they just didn't read the newspaper. So it was almost 1161 00:53:15,413 --> 00:53:17,732 Speaker 18: like I've been able to bridge that and seeing how 1162 00:53:17,733 --> 00:53:21,133 Speaker 18: it's changed where now as I've come up, you know, 1163 00:53:21,173 --> 00:53:23,573 Speaker 18: every every junior referee has access to a phone now 1164 00:53:23,573 --> 00:53:27,653 Speaker 18: every junior referee. And also I'm in the exposure that 1165 00:53:27,653 --> 00:53:30,133 Speaker 18: that rugby games get isn't just international anymore. 1166 00:53:30,213 --> 00:53:30,373 Speaker 14: You know. 1167 00:53:30,413 --> 00:53:34,413 Speaker 18: Club Rugby has you know, social media pages across New 1168 00:53:34,493 --> 00:53:37,093 Speaker 18: Zealand as well, so there's a lot more access to 1169 00:53:37,453 --> 00:53:39,973 Speaker 18: comments and to things like that. So I think I 1170 00:53:40,053 --> 00:53:42,293 Speaker 18: think growing up I was I was quite lucky. But 1171 00:53:42,813 --> 00:53:45,653 Speaker 18: suming I can because because I've come through so recently 1172 00:53:45,653 --> 00:53:48,853 Speaker 18: i've been I can actually I'm connected to how bad 1173 00:53:48,853 --> 00:53:49,733 Speaker 18: it can be right now. 1174 00:53:50,213 --> 00:53:53,333 Speaker 4: Yeah, what's your thoughts on the technology side of things, Ben? 1175 00:53:53,413 --> 00:53:56,693 Speaker 4: Do you think that helps it all worth that culture 1176 00:53:56,773 --> 00:53:58,773 Speaker 4: change that has needed to see that you've got that 1177 00:53:58,893 --> 00:54:01,253 Speaker 4: technology to rely on or it's always going to come 1178 00:54:01,293 --> 00:54:03,772 Speaker 4: down to the human element of it and the reef 1179 00:54:03,893 --> 00:54:05,693 Speaker 4: is there to do the best job they can and 1180 00:54:05,733 --> 00:54:08,653 Speaker 4: people need to know that even if they do get it. 1181 00:54:09,653 --> 00:54:12,973 Speaker 18: I think I think the way that technology use is 1182 00:54:13,093 --> 00:54:15,693 Speaker 18: used at the moment is pretty good. So we just 1183 00:54:15,733 --> 00:54:17,293 Speaker 18: need to make sure that we're doing it in a 1184 00:54:17,293 --> 00:54:20,133 Speaker 18: way that is actually enhancing the game, so it's still 1185 00:54:20,253 --> 00:54:22,373 Speaker 18: entertaining the game in terms of keeping the speed going, 1186 00:54:23,013 --> 00:54:24,973 Speaker 18: making it entertaining for people. 1187 00:54:25,133 --> 00:54:27,773 Speaker 19: Making sure that we're accurate, but without you know, taking 1188 00:54:27,773 --> 00:54:28,453 Speaker 19: too long to do it. 1189 00:54:28,533 --> 00:54:30,373 Speaker 18: So you know, the fact that we use the TMO now, 1190 00:54:30,413 --> 00:54:33,613 Speaker 18: the fact that we you know, have slow motion replays, 1191 00:54:33,653 --> 00:54:35,453 Speaker 18: as long as we getting the decisions right within a 1192 00:54:35,493 --> 00:54:37,773 Speaker 18: quick timeframe, and I think that's fine. I think, you know, 1193 00:54:37,813 --> 00:54:40,613 Speaker 18: we're working constantly, as referring teams in the background to 1194 00:54:40,613 --> 00:54:42,813 Speaker 18: make sure that we're not using, for example, the TMO 1195 00:54:43,813 --> 00:54:47,133 Speaker 18: just to get everything perfect a good element of not 1196 00:54:47,213 --> 00:54:49,293 Speaker 18: the game as well. But if we can do it 1197 00:54:49,333 --> 00:54:52,133 Speaker 18: quickly so that we make the right decision for for example, 1198 00:54:52,493 --> 00:54:54,493 Speaker 18: the correct driving score, then I think you know, we're 1199 00:54:54,533 --> 00:54:57,533 Speaker 18: happy with that. There can be the overuse of technology potentially, 1200 00:54:57,573 --> 00:54:59,893 Speaker 18: and that's potentially I think what we see in maybe 1201 00:54:59,933 --> 00:55:02,173 Speaker 18: sports overseas, where you know, the games are four or 1202 00:55:02,213 --> 00:55:03,733 Speaker 18: five hours. I don't think we want that to New 1203 00:55:03,813 --> 00:55:06,213 Speaker 18: Zealand want a fast game. But if we're wanting that 1204 00:55:06,253 --> 00:55:07,893 Speaker 18: in New Zealand, we're saying that, look, this is what 1205 00:55:07,933 --> 00:55:09,973 Speaker 18: we we you don't want that five our game, then 1206 00:55:10,053 --> 00:55:12,173 Speaker 18: you're going to have an element of there will be 1207 00:55:12,213 --> 00:55:13,933 Speaker 18: some mistakes and I think we have to understand that 1208 00:55:13,973 --> 00:55:14,533 Speaker 18: as the public. 1209 00:55:14,813 --> 00:55:17,053 Speaker 2: Yeah, well tell you what we're talking to Ben a 1210 00:55:17,133 --> 00:55:20,053 Speaker 2: keith international rugby referee and there's a lot of love 1211 00:55:20,133 --> 00:55:21,973 Speaker 2: for you coming through on the text machine mate, So 1212 00:55:22,253 --> 00:55:25,253 Speaker 2: you know, social media can be tough, but and so 1213 00:55:25,373 --> 00:55:26,973 Speaker 2: can our text machine actually, but there's a lot of 1214 00:55:27,013 --> 00:55:29,333 Speaker 2: love coming through, so you know, I hope you know 1215 00:55:29,333 --> 00:55:30,493 Speaker 2: that people appreciate what you do. 1216 00:55:31,733 --> 00:55:33,893 Speaker 19: That's awesome.

Reefs 1253 00:56:58,093 --> 00:57:00,293 Speaker 2: need all the support in the world. The professional refs 1254 00:57:00,333 --> 00:57:03,133 Speaker 2: in some cases need to lift their game.

There is that might help 1274 00:57:54,653 --> 00:57:57,133 Speaker 2: happen in the professional elite level, but it needs to 1275 00:57:57,173 --> 00:57:58,813 Speaker 2: be This is a novel, It needs to be done 1276 00:57:58,853 --> 00:58:01,453 Speaker 2: at all levels. We can't have our sport without them 1277 00:58:01,533 --> 00:58:04,693 Speaker 2: and spectators need to be better, but the association that 1278 00:58:04,733 --> 00:58:08,133 Speaker 2: can lead the culture change by being seen to upskill 1279 00:58:08,173 --> 00:58:11,813 Speaker 2: though under the banner of referee, there you go. 1280 00:58:11,813 --> 00:58:14,533 Speaker 4: Good text and this one says the thing about rugby 1281 00:58:14,813 --> 00:58:16,933 Speaker 4: is that if you are a referee there is already 1282 00:58:16,933 --> 00:58:19,853 Speaker 4: a level of respect there that few other sports adhere 1283 00:58:19,973 --> 00:58:22,693 Speaker 4: to look at the disrespects soccer referees have to deal 1284 00:58:22,733 --> 00:58:25,613 Speaker 4: with from players as one example. 1285 00:58:25,173 --> 00:58:27,333 Speaker 2: Well, it's totally different. It's a totally different kind of 1286 00:58:27,333 --> 00:58:30,133 Speaker 2: officiating in rugby because often you're telling people how to 1287 00:58:30,133 --> 00:58:33,253 Speaker 2: play the game, use it, use it, back out of there. 1288 00:58:33,333 --> 00:58:38,213 Speaker 2: You know.

It's different from 1290 00:58:41,053 --> 00:58:42,613 Speaker 2: any any other sport in that regard. 1291 00:58:43,133 --> 00:58:46,293 Speaker 4: Yeah, oh eight one hundred eighty ten eighty is the 1292 00:58:46,413 --> 00:58:46,973 Speaker 4: number to call. 1293 00:58:47,093 --> 00:58:48,653 Speaker 3: Love to hear your thoughts on this one. 1294 00:58:48,693 --> 00:58:52,053 Speaker 4: If you're in the referee game at the grassroots level 1295 00:58:52,213 --> 00:58:55,533 Speaker 4: or at the more elite level, waite hundred eighty ten eighty. 1296 00:58:55,573 --> 00:58:58,173 Speaker 3: How do we turn it around?

And so if 1341 01:01:27,493 --> 01:01:29,333 Speaker 2: you if you're a if you're a you know, a 1342 01:01:29,373 --> 01:01:33,333 Speaker 2: person that loves rugby and andy and you're thinking, well, 1343 01:01:33,373 --> 01:01:36,733 Speaker 2: I want to get into being a referee, how do 1344 01:01:36,773 --> 01:01:38,253 Speaker 2: you go about that? Who do you who do you 1345 01:01:38,253 --> 01:01:40,373 Speaker 2: approach and how do you follow that path? 1346 01:01:40,813 --> 01:01:43,213 Speaker 21: It's it's largely up to the to the to the 1347 01:01:43,213 --> 01:01:47,253 Speaker 21: person obviously to take the action. There's in all the 1348 01:01:47,253 --> 01:01:51,333 Speaker 21: pus around New Zealand there is either a referees association. 1349 01:01:51,173 --> 01:01:52,453 Speaker 17: Or the rugby Union. 1350 01:01:52,853 --> 01:01:56,693 Speaker 21: The local rugby union themselves look after the referees, so 1351 01:01:56,853 --> 01:02:02,133 Speaker 21: it's often a case of contacting them first, either via 1352 01:02:02,213 --> 01:02:05,213 Speaker 21: socials or give them a call or an email. But 1353 01:02:05,253 --> 01:02:07,733 Speaker 21: it can be just as easy to rock up on 1354 01:02:07,773 --> 01:02:10,373 Speaker 21: a Saturday and tap someone on the on the back 1355 01:02:10,413 --> 01:02:12,733 Speaker 21: who's got a uniform on and and say how do 1356 01:02:12,813 --> 01:02:13,373 Speaker 21: I get on with it? 1357 01:02:13,453 --> 01:02:13,613 Speaker 9: Right? 1358 01:02:13,693 --> 01:02:13,893 Speaker 17: Yeah? 1359 01:02:13,973 --> 01:02:15,893 Speaker 2: Yeah? And so if you want to be a referee, 1360 01:02:16,213 --> 01:02:18,613 Speaker 2: you know people talk about training, right, so there's a 1361 01:02:18,653 --> 01:02:20,373 Speaker 2: lot to it. You know you no, no, you need 1362 01:02:20,413 --> 01:02:22,453 Speaker 2: to obviously know the rule book off by heart, right, 1363 01:02:22,733 --> 01:02:24,613 Speaker 2: but you also know you have to know where to 1364 01:02:24,693 --> 01:02:26,653 Speaker 2: stand at a certain point you know you have to 1365 01:02:26,973 --> 01:02:29,413 Speaker 2: run back for the conversion. There's a whole lot of 1366 01:02:29,973 --> 01:02:32,973 Speaker 2: refereeing skills in there that you know. If you're just 1367 01:02:33,013 --> 01:02:34,773 Speaker 2: playing the game, you don't you know, the referee alay 1368 01:02:34,773 --> 01:02:36,053 Speaker 2: seems to be in the right place, but you don't 1369 01:02:36,093 --> 01:02:39,013 Speaker 2: know that stuff. So is there a training program once 1370 01:02:39,053 --> 01:02:41,093 Speaker 2: you get into the into the path. 1371 01:02:41,253 --> 01:02:43,373 Speaker 21: Yeah, absolutely, I mean I would struggle to think that 1372 01:02:43,413 --> 01:02:45,653 Speaker 21: any of you referee knows the law book one hundred percent, 1373 01:02:46,853 --> 01:02:50,693 Speaker 21: to be perfectly honest. We try our best, but no, look, 1374 01:02:50,693 --> 01:02:55,333 Speaker 21: there are definitely training you know, training avenues available, of 1375 01:02:55,373 --> 01:02:55,933 Speaker 21: course there are. 1376 01:02:57,293 --> 01:02:59,933 Speaker 17: Typically if you're a first year or. 1377 01:02:59,893 --> 01:03:02,373 Speaker 21: A novice referee, you get put in a group with 1378 01:03:02,413 --> 01:03:06,933 Speaker 21: your peers. In Auckland, we have meetings every Monday night 1379 01:03:07,493 --> 01:03:11,413 Speaker 21: six months year to try and up school our new 1380 01:03:11,453 --> 01:03:13,893 Speaker 21: members and also the rest of the referee and cohort. 1381 01:03:15,133 --> 01:03:17,373 Speaker 21: If you're a first year referee, you can expect to 1382 01:03:17,373 --> 01:03:20,813 Speaker 21: be assistant referee or touch judging pretty early on in 1383 01:03:21,253 --> 01:03:24,493 Speaker 21: the piece, which is a nice easy way to get involved. 1384 01:03:24,813 --> 01:03:27,133 Speaker 21: Or at the moment we're heading into seven season as well, 1385 01:03:27,253 --> 01:03:31,813 Speaker 21: so that's that's also a light introduction to the to 1386 01:03:31,893 --> 01:03:32,253 Speaker 21: the sport. 1387 01:03:32,533 --> 01:03:35,173 Speaker 17: In the vocation and then. 1388 01:03:36,333 --> 01:03:40,173 Speaker 21: Once you have there's there's not really any tests or 1389 01:03:40,213 --> 01:03:42,293 Speaker 21: anything to pass in order to get onto the field. 1390 01:03:42,293 --> 01:03:44,533 Speaker 21: It's just you know when you're ready, you're ready, and 1391 01:03:44,573 --> 01:03:47,493 Speaker 21: hope you're ready sooner rather than later, and out you go. 1392 01:03:47,973 --> 01:03:50,173 Speaker 2: Do you what level do you have to reach before 1393 01:03:50,173 --> 01:03:50,813 Speaker 2: you get paid? 1394 01:03:53,173 --> 01:03:57,213 Speaker 21: You have to be a So some French reunions in 1395 01:03:57,733 --> 01:04:01,013 Speaker 21: New Zealand will pay your your mileage and in bits 1396 01:04:01,013 --> 01:04:03,613 Speaker 21: and pieces like that. But to actually be be paid 1397 01:04:03,693 --> 01:04:07,413 Speaker 21: to referee, you're pretty much an MPC referee, right. 1398 01:04:08,093 --> 01:04:11,173 Speaker 2: So you know when someone is getting angry at the 1399 01:04:11,213 --> 01:04:17,293 Speaker 2: sideline at a referee in rugby, that person is there, 1400 01:04:18,413 --> 01:04:20,453 Speaker 2: you know, of their own volition, out of the goodness 1401 01:04:20,493 --> 01:04:22,773 Speaker 2: of their heart, because they believe in the game. And 1402 01:04:22,853 --> 01:04:24,853 Speaker 2: so you're you're not you're not abusing someone that's getting 1403 01:04:24,893 --> 01:04:25,613 Speaker 2: rich off the back of this. 1404 01:04:26,133 --> 01:04:26,333 Speaker 20: Yeah. 1405 01:04:26,373 --> 01:04:29,013 Speaker 21: Correct, In Auckland we actually pay a subscription, so we 1406 01:04:29,053 --> 01:04:34,333 Speaker 21: pay fifty dollars to referee, so which isn't the similar 1407 01:04:34,333 --> 01:04:37,893 Speaker 21: to other places around around New Zealand. So yeah, so 1408 01:04:37,973 --> 01:04:42,173 Speaker 21: other sports in New Zealand you know, will pay will 1409 01:04:42,173 --> 01:04:44,213 Speaker 21: pay a match payment of some sort. 1410 01:04:44,253 --> 01:04:46,173 Speaker 17: But you're very really in rugby union. 1411 01:04:46,413 --> 01:04:49,093 Speaker 4: And what's the situation now, Rob when you look at 1412 01:04:49,093 --> 01:04:52,213 Speaker 4: the spectators on the sideline, do you think that abuse 1413 01:04:52,293 --> 01:04:57,213 Speaker 4: or anger is getting worse or there are more of 1414 01:04:57,253 --> 01:05:00,493 Speaker 4: those flare ups that we're seen in particular grassroots games. 1415 01:05:01,733 --> 01:05:04,253 Speaker 21: It's hard to say it's I think it's it's it's 1416 01:05:05,253 --> 01:05:08,053 Speaker 21: it's regional. I think there's there's an undertone of that 1417 01:05:08,133 --> 01:05:10,653 Speaker 21: sort of stuff has always been there. I'm fortunate I've 1418 01:05:10,933 --> 01:05:15,013 Speaker 21: refereed for over twenty years. I've I've only had one 1419 01:05:15,093 --> 01:05:19,613 Speaker 21: or two sort of instances where I can think to myself, yeah, 1420 01:05:19,613 --> 01:05:22,853 Speaker 21: that was actually quite bad, not physical or anything, but 1421 01:05:23,093 --> 01:05:25,093 Speaker 21: just ones that stick in the in the back of 1422 01:05:25,693 --> 01:05:29,853 Speaker 21: my mind. But I think there's a bunch of reasons 1423 01:05:29,853 --> 01:05:34,853 Speaker 21: that are completely outside of rugby's control which is creating 1424 01:05:35,533 --> 01:05:39,533 Speaker 21: this behavior. So it's it's hard to it's hard for 1425 01:05:39,533 --> 01:05:41,813 Speaker 21: for for me as a as a referee up running 1426 01:05:41,853 --> 01:05:43,733 Speaker 21: out there on a sellay or my provincial union and 1427 01:05:43,773 --> 01:05:46,253 Speaker 21: my Referee Association, or New Zealand Rugby for that matter, 1428 01:05:46,333 --> 01:05:50,973 Speaker 21: to to actually, you know, do something that's really tangible 1429 01:05:51,013 --> 01:05:53,893 Speaker 21: that's going to stomp it that once and for all. 1430 01:05:54,093 --> 01:05:55,533 Speaker 17: It's it's an impossibility. 1431 01:05:55,533 --> 01:05:57,493 Speaker 21: Really, it's I think it's it's unfortunately, it's just something 1432 01:05:57,533 --> 01:06:00,373 Speaker 21: that we need to minimize as much as we can do. 1433 01:06:00,453 --> 01:06:03,613 Speaker 2: You any you know, do you look into conflict management training, 1434 01:06:04,093 --> 01:06:07,333 Speaker 2: how to diffuse situations or any Is that something that 1435 01:06:07,373 --> 01:06:09,453 Speaker 2: you guys discussed in your in your Monday weekend. 1436 01:06:09,693 --> 01:06:11,213 Speaker 17: Yeah, absolutely, Look, we we do. 1437 01:06:11,613 --> 01:06:13,933 Speaker 21: We do a lot of work on the management of 1438 01:06:14,133 --> 01:06:18,813 Speaker 21: the game. So how to diffuse situations, how to talk 1439 01:06:18,853 --> 01:06:23,013 Speaker 21: to players in particular instances, what to do when you know, 1440 01:06:23,093 --> 01:06:26,773 Speaker 21: if you if you lose control of games. You know, 1441 01:06:26,893 --> 01:06:29,453 Speaker 21: sometimes sometimes that does happen. 1442 01:06:29,453 --> 01:06:34,093 Speaker 17: Hopefully it doesn't, so and and and. 1443 01:06:33,693 --> 01:06:36,253 Speaker 21: Some of the top guys looking at your body language 1444 01:06:36,293 --> 01:06:39,333 Speaker 21: and and and and other things like that. So yeah, yeah, 1445 01:06:39,333 --> 01:06:42,813 Speaker 21: it is available to us, definitely. Obviously we're just waiting 1446 01:06:42,813 --> 01:06:45,533 Speaker 21: on the responses from the from the players to to 1447 01:06:45,533 --> 01:06:46,173 Speaker 21: be able to act in it. 1448 01:06:46,253 --> 01:06:50,413 Speaker 4: Right, there's a teachs tier from muzz it sees get 1449 01:06:50,413 --> 01:06:52,653 Speaker 4: a rob. Is there a fitness teast to be a ref. 1450 01:06:54,493 --> 01:06:57,573 Speaker 21: There is, but there's but not at not at the 1451 01:06:57,573 --> 01:07:00,293 Speaker 21: lower grade. So the New Zealand Rugby brought out a 1452 01:07:00,333 --> 01:07:06,893 Speaker 21: new Community Rugby framework this year and it's in what 1453 01:07:07,053 --> 01:07:11,613 Speaker 21: the basis of that was. It was to standardize levels 1454 01:07:11,733 --> 01:07:17,093 Speaker 21: of referee capability across New Zealand. So if you want 1455 01:07:17,133 --> 01:07:21,173 Speaker 21: to be basically a Premiere club referee or a verse 1456 01:07:21,253 --> 01:07:25,573 Speaker 21: fifteen schools referee or higher, you do need to do 1457 01:07:25,613 --> 01:07:28,333 Speaker 21: a fitness test and pass it in a reasonable way, because. 1458 01:07:28,373 --> 01:07:28,933 Speaker 17: How many you do? 1459 01:07:29,133 --> 01:07:31,773 Speaker 2: Like what you must do nine ten k's in the game, 1460 01:07:31,813 --> 01:07:32,133 Speaker 2: would you? 1461 01:07:32,773 --> 01:07:35,133 Speaker 21: Uh no, it's probably a bit less than that. Yeah, 1462 01:07:35,613 --> 01:07:38,533 Speaker 21: so I should have said more, should than I But yeah, 1463 01:07:38,653 --> 01:07:41,893 Speaker 21: I think between you know, probably between six seven k's. 1464 01:07:41,733 --> 01:07:45,013 Speaker 2: Is that's up there. But they're also shuttles, right, you know, 1465 01:07:45,173 --> 01:07:47,653 Speaker 2: so you know, like as I was saying before, when 1466 01:07:47,653 --> 01:07:49,413 Speaker 2: you've got to sprint over for the conversion, that you've 1467 01:07:49,413 --> 01:07:50,773 Speaker 2: got to get there at pace, don't. 1468 01:07:50,573 --> 01:07:53,173 Speaker 21: You hundred percent if anyone wants, If anyone out there 1469 01:07:53,213 --> 01:07:55,253 Speaker 21: wants to give it a go, it's called the Bronco test, 1470 01:07:55,333 --> 01:07:58,253 Speaker 21: So you can readily available on. All you need is 1471 01:07:58,493 --> 01:08:01,213 Speaker 21: four cones and sixty meters in your way. 1472 01:08:01,413 --> 01:08:04,853 Speaker 2: Well what struck me when I did this event with you? 1473 01:08:05,093 --> 01:08:08,293 Speaker 2: Where was that was that last Saturday?

So you know, people that that got into refereing, 1483 01:08:28,973 --> 01:08:32,053 Speaker 2: there is that that that community that that you can 1484 01:08:32,093 --> 01:08:32,652 Speaker 2: get involved in. 1485 01:08:32,772 --> 01:08:36,333 Speaker 21: Absolutely a massive amount of camaraderie and uh and you 1486 01:08:36,372 --> 01:08:38,892 Speaker 21: know the family the family spirit a few of them 1487 01:08:39,013 --> 01:08:42,213 Speaker 21: is as well. But I guess that's the same with 1488 01:08:42,253 --> 01:08:46,173 Speaker 21: you with everything, right you you you you make friends 1489 01:08:46,173 --> 01:08:47,973 Speaker 21: with the people who are into the same stuff as you. 1490 01:08:48,133 --> 01:08:49,892 Speaker 21: We we go out there and do a job which 1491 01:08:50,372 --> 01:08:52,333 Speaker 21: can be pretty challenging at times. So you need to 1492 01:08:52,372 --> 01:08:56,133 Speaker 21: celebrate the winds and celebrate the losses too. And the 1493 01:08:56,213 --> 01:08:59,572 Speaker 21: drawers and the and the drawers the unfortunately few too 1494 01:08:59,572 --> 01:09:01,852 Speaker 21: many of them at the at the moment. 1495 01:09:01,893 --> 01:09:06,092 Speaker 17: But yeah, I mean the camaraderie within within our. 1496 01:09:05,973 --> 01:09:11,652 Speaker 21: Association is not indifferent to any rugby club or sports 1497 01:09:11,652 --> 01:09:14,333 Speaker 21: club or any other environment like that around New Zealand. 1498 01:09:14,333 --> 01:09:16,932 Speaker 21: We all we get along with your own trirehst for 1499 01:09:16,973 --> 01:09:17,293 Speaker 21: what we do. 1500 01:09:17,532 --> 01:09:17,933 Speaker 2: Good on you. 1501 01:09:18,452 --> 01:09:22,133 Speaker 4: Yeah, is there a bit of extra assistance or you know, 1502 01:09:22,213 --> 01:09:24,133 Speaker 4: the new element here is social media. So with the 1503 01:09:24,173 --> 01:09:26,652 Speaker 4: young guys, particularly if they're moving up into more of 1504 01:09:26,732 --> 01:09:29,772 Speaker 4: the professional level, what is the message to them. Do 1505 01:09:29,812 --> 01:09:31,492 Speaker 4: you tell the younger guys maybe it's best to say 1506 01:09:31,532 --> 01:09:33,972 Speaker 4: off social media or is there some training around that element? 1507 01:09:35,853 --> 01:09:40,013 Speaker 21: No, there isn't. I mean social media. And I was 1508 01:09:40,293 --> 01:09:43,532 Speaker 21: hearing what Ben was saying before. And you know, Ben's 1509 01:09:43,532 --> 01:09:47,013 Speaker 21: an outstanding ambassador for for for referring but also for 1510 01:09:47,732 --> 01:09:50,852 Speaker 21: New Zealand and general is one of the Wood's best 1511 01:09:50,853 --> 01:09:54,892 Speaker 21: referees at the moment. You know, social media. I mean, 1512 01:09:55,692 --> 01:09:57,452 Speaker 21: if you just don't read what's put on it, then 1513 01:09:57,492 --> 01:09:59,772 Speaker 21: you're then you're fine. But I struggle to think that anyone, 1514 01:09:59,812 --> 01:10:02,532 Speaker 21: particularly the younger guys, are gonna are going to heed 1515 01:10:02,612 --> 01:10:05,532 Speaker 21: that advice. But I mean, as I said, I've I've 1516 01:10:05,532 --> 01:10:08,293 Speaker 21: been referring for a while now, and I can definitely 1517 01:10:08,532 --> 01:10:09,053 Speaker 21: tell you that. 1518 01:10:09,572 --> 01:10:12,412 Speaker 17: You know, when my game's previous games have. 1519 01:10:12,372 --> 01:10:15,612 Speaker 21: Been televised and then they're putting put up on Sky 1520 01:10:15,732 --> 01:10:19,532 Speaker 21: or whatever, and some people have absolutely climbed and for better, 1521 01:10:19,572 --> 01:10:23,892 Speaker 21: for worse, and and yeah, it can be pretty challenging 1522 01:10:23,933 --> 01:10:27,012 Speaker 21: to take in some respects. Absolutely, yeah, I bet. 1523 01:10:27,572 --> 01:10:30,372 Speaker 2: And final question, I saw this video of a ref 1524 01:10:30,492 --> 01:10:34,532 Speaker 2: out on the field by himself running around blowing whistles 1525 01:10:34,572 --> 01:10:37,213 Speaker 2: and running lineouts and stuff, sort of sort of a 1526 01:10:37,253 --> 01:10:42,412 Speaker 2: shadow referee Angus Gardner. Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, and shame. 1527 01:10:42,853 --> 01:10:46,612 Speaker 2: Was that a real thing? That's one hundred percent real, right, 1528 01:10:47,053 --> 01:10:48,053 Speaker 2: And is that something you do? 1529 01:10:48,612 --> 01:10:53,253 Speaker 21: Definitely not, but maybe that's why Angus garden is also 1530 01:10:53,293 --> 01:10:54,612 Speaker 21: one of the best referees in the world. 1531 01:10:54,612 --> 01:10:56,932 Speaker 17: And I'm a club dirt tracker. 1532 01:10:57,253 --> 01:10:59,253 Speaker 2: There is something pretty music about it. 1533 01:10:59,412 --> 01:11:01,013 Speaker 3: He's day guy officially in. 1534 01:11:01,093 --> 01:11:02,412 Speaker 2: The whole game, and you're the only one there. It's 1535 01:11:02,452 --> 01:11:04,572 Speaker 2: quite something. But for four whistles and anything, it's it's 1536 01:11:04,572 --> 01:11:06,293 Speaker 2: good stuff. But he is a great referee, so you know, 1537 01:11:06,372 --> 01:11:08,732 Speaker 2: as you say, fantastic.

And if you're an appearance 1559 01:11:51,572 --> 01:11:54,133 Speaker 4: on the sidelines, what are you seeing out there? 1560 01:11:54,213 --> 01:11:55,532 Speaker 3: It is a quarter to three. 1561 01:11:56,532 --> 01:11:58,933 Speaker 1: Have a chat with the lads on eight hundred and 1562 01:11:58,933 --> 01:12:02,852 Speaker 1: eighty ten eighty Matt Heathan Taylor Adams afternoons news talks. 1563 01:12:02,893 --> 01:12:04,772 Speaker 3: They'd be afternoon to you. 1564 01:12:04,853 --> 01:12:08,012 Speaker 4: It's thirteen to three and we are talking about referees 1565 01:12:08,053 --> 01:12:10,612 Speaker 4: and New Zealand. Is there a problem with the way 1566 01:12:10,612 --> 01:12:12,852 Speaker 4: that we treat them at the grassroots level and into 1567 01:12:12,853 --> 01:12:15,573 Speaker 4: the professional level as well. If you've been a referee 1568 01:12:15,612 --> 01:12:17,772 Speaker 4: and you're currently a referee A one hundred and eighty 1569 01:12:17,853 --> 01:12:20,093 Speaker 4: ten eighty. What are you seen out there, why did 1570 01:12:20,133 --> 01:12:21,492 Speaker 4: you get into it, and what do you get out 1571 01:12:21,492 --> 01:12:24,293 Speaker 4: of it? Because clearly, speaking to Rob and also Ben, 1572 01:12:24,452 --> 01:12:27,572 Speaker 4: there's a huge amount of satisfaction in doing something like 1573 01:12:27,612 --> 01:12:30,732 Speaker 4: refereeing at the grassroots or professional level. It is giving 1574 01:12:30,772 --> 01:12:33,652 Speaker 4: back to your community. And as Rob' said, referees pay 1575 01:12:33,692 --> 01:12:35,372 Speaker 4: to do it at that level. You know they're not 1576 01:12:35,372 --> 01:12:37,412 Speaker 4: getting any money. They're actually paying for the privilege to 1577 01:12:37,452 --> 01:12:40,213 Speaker 4: get out there and make sure the sport can go ahead. 1578 01:12:40,772 --> 01:12:43,372 Speaker 2: The saying no ref, no game is great. I'm a 1579 01:12:43,412 --> 01:12:46,293 Speaker 2: coach and I have banned parents from coming to games 1580 01:12:46,293 --> 01:12:51,452 Speaker 2: because of their no nothing, abusive attitude towards the refs. 1581 01:12:51,853 --> 01:12:54,492 Speaker 2: It has to start with schools and coaches and parents too. 1582 01:12:55,293 --> 01:12:57,253 Speaker 2: If you see someone being a dickhead, you've got to 1583 01:12:57,293 --> 01:13:01,173 Speaker 2: say something on my team. If they behave like that, 1584 01:13:01,253 --> 01:13:03,133 Speaker 2: they don't come to the next game. The kids all right, 1585 01:13:03,253 --> 01:13:04,293 Speaker 2: but the parents stay home. 1586 01:13:04,893 --> 01:13:05,213 Speaker 3: Nice. 1587 01:13:05,293 --> 01:13:07,652 Speaker 4: I like that, and this is a nice teakes love 1588 01:13:07,732 --> 01:13:10,772 Speaker 4: this chat, Mike. Kids are playing club rugby and rests 1589 01:13:10,812 --> 01:13:14,892 Speaker 4: make the community that comes with that possible. They are 1590 01:13:15,093 --> 01:13:17,253 Speaker 4: the cornerstone of New Zealand society and we've got to 1591 01:13:17,253 --> 01:13:17,812 Speaker 4: treat them better. 1592 01:13:18,452 --> 01:13:22,173 Speaker 2: Darren, welcome to the show. Hey, hey Don, very good, 1593 01:13:22,253 --> 01:13:23,852 Speaker 2: thank you.

But I've experienced a mixture of you 1598 01:13:38,213 --> 01:13:43,253 Speaker 10: know refs that dads or mums who just maybe they 1599 01:13:43,293 --> 01:13:45,133 Speaker 10: don't know the rules. We never paid before, so they 1600 01:13:45,173 --> 01:13:47,012 Speaker 10: just let everything go. And then you've got other rests 1601 01:13:47,053 --> 01:13:48,652 Speaker 10: who are like, you know, they know the rules and 1602 01:13:48,692 --> 01:13:51,293 Speaker 10: they blow everything up and you try and be sort 1603 01:13:51,293 --> 01:13:55,253 Speaker 10: of somewhere in the middle. I've found a few try 1604 01:13:55,293 --> 01:13:58,772 Speaker 10: and blow up you know, thousand things like that that 1605 01:13:59,053 --> 01:14:01,972 Speaker 10: some of the parents on the sidelines, you know you 1606 01:14:01,973 --> 01:14:06,333 Speaker 10: hear the old referee referee you know, or you know, 1607 01:14:06,412 --> 01:14:10,173 Speaker 10: have had some abuse from people saying, oh, you should 1608 01:14:10,253 --> 01:14:12,732 Speaker 10: have called out a fowl or you know, you're not 1609 01:14:12,772 --> 01:14:13,652 Speaker 10: referring it properly. 1610 01:14:16,412 --> 01:14:16,572 Speaker 20: Yeah. 1611 01:14:16,572 --> 01:14:18,772 Speaker 10: I had one one parent to me afterwards and said 1612 01:14:19,173 --> 01:14:21,012 Speaker 10: you ruined the game because you keep blowing the whistle 1613 01:14:21,093 --> 01:14:23,732 Speaker 10: for fouls. And I was like, you said, the kids 1614 01:14:24,013 --> 01:14:25,812 Speaker 10: don't They won't enjoy the game because the game's not 1615 01:14:25,812 --> 01:14:27,452 Speaker 10: free flowing. And I said, well, I don't think the 1616 01:14:27,532 --> 01:14:30,692 Speaker 10: kids enjoy being picked and fouled. 1617 01:14:30,973 --> 01:14:34,612 Speaker 2: So and it's also what did you do for the game? 1618 01:14:34,772 --> 01:14:37,173 Speaker 2: You know, he said that to the moments do I 1619 01:14:37,253 --> 01:14:38,572 Speaker 2: ruin the game? What did you do? Did you make 1620 01:14:38,572 --> 01:14:40,493 Speaker 2: the game a lot better by standing on the sideline? 1621 01:14:40,853 --> 01:14:41,892 Speaker 9: You know exactly. 1622 01:14:42,333 --> 01:14:48,452 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's an interesting one with that free flowing nature 1623 01:14:48,452 --> 01:14:50,093 Speaker 2: when there are young kids, because you know, I've done 1624 01:14:50,093 --> 01:14:52,892 Speaker 2: a bit of refereeing at that level, and what I mean, 1625 01:14:53,093 --> 01:14:54,892 Speaker 2: that's the hard thing isn't knowing what to let go 1626 01:14:55,053 --> 01:14:59,293 Speaker 2: and what not to let go because you know, a 1627 01:14:59,293 --> 01:15:00,772 Speaker 2: lot of stuff kids do at that age it is 1628 01:15:00,812 --> 01:15:02,852 Speaker 2: just because they you know, they're just eight year olds 1629 01:15:02,893 --> 01:15:04,612 Speaker 2: and they just run around, you know, they're kind of 1630 01:15:04,933 --> 01:15:05,573 Speaker 2: not necessarily. 1631 01:15:06,253 --> 01:15:09,253 Speaker 10: We saw coaching, We saw a coaching course, and one 1632 01:15:09,253 --> 01:15:10,892 Speaker 10: of the things they said was kids of that age 1633 01:15:10,933 --> 01:15:12,813 Speaker 10: don't try to foil intentionally. 1634 01:15:13,013 --> 01:15:14,452 Speaker 2: Mm hmm. Yeah. 1635 01:15:14,492 --> 01:15:15,812 Speaker 10: The one thing I found with a coach, and I 1636 01:15:15,812 --> 01:15:17,293 Speaker 10: will see at a coaching course, and the one thing 1637 01:15:17,333 --> 01:15:19,732 Speaker 10: I've found is that's aught about tacking play and scoring 1638 01:15:19,772 --> 01:15:21,333 Speaker 10: goals and all that kind of stuff, is not much 1639 01:15:21,333 --> 01:15:24,932 Speaker 10: on how to tackle properly or a defense. Yeah, it's 1640 01:15:24,973 --> 01:15:29,253 Speaker 10: an issue because I do think some kids they watched TV, 1641 01:15:29,333 --> 01:15:31,532 Speaker 10: they watched the Premier League. They try to copy the heroes, 1642 01:15:31,572 --> 01:15:34,133 Speaker 10: and I think sometimes they do fail intentionally and I 1643 01:15:34,173 --> 01:15:35,772 Speaker 10: can I think I could pick it when they are 1644 01:15:35,812 --> 01:15:38,452 Speaker 10: trying to do that, yeah, grabbing shirt you know. Yeah, 1645 01:15:38,572 --> 01:15:40,532 Speaker 10: somebody that's going on goal to score a goal and they. 1646 01:15:40,412 --> 01:15:41,013 Speaker 9: Pull them back back. 1647 01:15:41,572 --> 01:15:43,532 Speaker 10: So yeah, and the kind of stuff I pick up. 1648 01:15:43,772 --> 01:15:45,772 Speaker 10: And you blow the whistle for a fowl and there 1649 01:15:45,812 --> 01:15:47,452 Speaker 10: at the times when you know they have a clision 1650 01:15:47,492 --> 01:15:48,932 Speaker 10: and it's slip both going for the ball when you're 1651 01:15:48,933 --> 01:15:49,612 Speaker 10: and you're about to go. 1652 01:15:50,053 --> 01:15:52,253 Speaker 2: Yeah, oh we'll get on you Darren for getting out 1653 01:15:52,253 --> 01:15:54,892 Speaker 2: there and doing it.

I mean you just want to read 1659 01:16:03,772 --> 01:16:05,372 Speaker 4: cards appearance they send them off. 1660 01:16:05,492 --> 01:16:08,772 Speaker 2: You see it just people going absolutely mental. It's all sports, 1661 01:16:08,812 --> 01:16:10,572 Speaker 2: you know, Like there's a lot of people hockey people 1662 01:16:10,612 --> 01:16:13,372 Speaker 2: coming through here. There's an inlights inline skates person saying 1663 01:16:13,853 --> 01:16:18,972 Speaker 2: the abuse. There's water polo parents getting crazy. My parents 1664 01:16:19,372 --> 01:16:21,053 Speaker 2: love their kids and want their kids to do well, 1665 01:16:21,093 --> 01:16:23,732 Speaker 2: so they get very passionate about it, and they and 1666 01:16:23,772 --> 01:16:25,893 Speaker 2: they want their kids a chance to expressing themselves on 1667 01:16:25,933 --> 01:16:27,972 Speaker 2: the field. So you can understand the emotions that come 1668 01:16:28,013 --> 01:16:29,612 Speaker 2: through from a parent. And I've certainly been on the 1669 01:16:29,612 --> 01:16:32,692 Speaker 2: sideline of a game and gone. But but you just 1670 01:16:32,732 --> 01:16:35,333 Speaker 2: got to rain that in because it's you know, you're 1671 01:16:35,532 --> 01:16:38,572 Speaker 2: you are damaging the game and the potential for whatever 1672 01:16:38,612 --> 01:16:41,492 Speaker 2: game you support from continuing if you keep bloody paving 1673 01:16:41,572 --> 01:16:41,852 Speaker 2: like that. 1674 01:16:42,133 --> 01:16:44,213 Speaker 4: Yeah, nicely said, Oh, one hundred and eighty ten eighty c. 1675 01:16:44,412 --> 01:16:46,412 Speaker 4: Number to call it is eight to three. 1676 01:16:47,692 --> 01:16:50,133 Speaker 1: The issues that affect you and a bit of fun 1677 01:16:50,173 --> 01:16:53,692 Speaker 1: along the way.

That's bloody good. 1744 01:19:43,532 --> 01:19:45,972 Speaker 4: Yep, we love you guys right onto this one. This 1745 01:19:46,013 --> 01:19:48,173 Speaker 4: will be a good discussion, but it might be a 1746 01:19:48,173 --> 01:19:50,372 Speaker 4: full on discussion. But it's happening more and more. We're 1747 01:19:50,372 --> 01:19:52,812 Speaker 4: talking about dog attacks, and clearly it has been in 1748 01:19:52,812 --> 01:19:54,333 Speaker 4: the news a hell of a lot over the last 1749 01:19:54,372 --> 01:19:57,772 Speaker 4: couple of years, but the latest incident was very dramatic 1750 01:19:57,812 --> 01:20:01,053 Speaker 4: and full on. A rampaging pitball launched itself from a 1751 01:20:01,053 --> 01:20:03,852 Speaker 4: moving vehicle and stormed into an Auckland jewelry store while 1752 01:20:03,893 --> 01:20:07,892 Speaker 4: attempting to savage a lapdog, injuring an employee during the ordeal. 1753 01:20:07,933 --> 01:20:10,213 Speaker 4: So the work claimed the pitbull's owner has yet to 1754 01:20:10,253 --> 01:20:14,852 Speaker 4: face any significant consequences, despite the attack causing a career 1755 01:20:15,412 --> 01:20:21,532 Speaker 4: ending injury. It's incredibly terrifying and incredibly dramatic incidents, but 1756 01:20:21,732 --> 01:20:24,812 Speaker 4: certainly when it comes to dog attacks or being threatened 1757 01:20:24,812 --> 01:20:26,972 Speaker 4: by dogs, it is something that appears to be happening 1758 01:20:27,013 --> 01:20:27,452 Speaker 4: a bit more. 1759 01:20:27,692 --> 01:20:29,372 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's not ideal, is it. So a 1760 01:20:29,853 --> 01:20:31,692 Speaker 2: pitbull jumps out of a car, runs through the front 1761 01:20:31,692 --> 01:20:34,732 Speaker 2: of a Michael Hill jeweler. It's trying to maul a 1762 01:20:34,812 --> 01:20:37,732 Speaker 2: lap dog that's in the customer's hand and Stacey pens 1763 01:20:37,732 --> 01:20:40,812 Speaker 2: the employee, so she jumps out heroically to protect the 1764 01:20:40,853 --> 01:20:43,932 Speaker 2: customer and the kavoodle. I believe, I believe it was kavodle. 1765 01:20:44,572 --> 01:20:46,572 Speaker 2: I like a kavoodle. I don't want to see a 1766 01:20:46,572 --> 01:20:51,572 Speaker 2: cave dogs mauled by a pitbull. And yeah, so she's 1767 01:20:51,893 --> 01:20:53,652 Speaker 2: had to have eight months off work and thinks her 1768 01:20:53,652 --> 01:20:56,333 Speaker 2: careers over. The pitball owner has been issued an infringement 1769 01:20:56,452 --> 01:21:00,892 Speaker 2: order along with an order to muzzle and inuter the 1770 01:21:01,133 --> 01:21:03,652 Speaker 2: mass So what do you think about this? Should there 1771 01:21:03,692 --> 01:21:05,532 Speaker 2: be a bigger punishment of the dog jumps out of 1772 01:21:05,853 --> 01:21:09,253 Speaker 2: a car and runs into a Michael Hill uller and 1773 01:21:09,412 --> 01:21:12,092 Speaker 2: causes all kinds of problems. You know, should and should 1774 01:21:12,133 --> 01:21:15,293 Speaker 2: that dog have been put down? And or is that 1775 01:21:15,412 --> 01:21:17,412 Speaker 2: just life? Dog? Dogs will be dogs. You know we 1776 01:21:17,452 --> 01:21:20,253 Speaker 2: love dogs. I love dogs, Yeah, I don't love I 1777 01:21:20,253 --> 01:21:22,412 Speaker 2: wouldn't love a pit bull that attacked my dog, Colin. 1778 01:21:22,973 --> 01:21:24,053 Speaker 3: Why you're buying a nice ring. 1779 01:21:24,333 --> 01:21:27,012 Speaker 2: But it seems unlikely that the owner wanted this to happen. 1780 01:21:27,333 --> 01:21:31,093 Speaker 2: You know that the owner didn't sick the dog on 1781 01:21:31,173 --> 01:21:34,492 Speaker 2: the Michael Hill jeweler. You know, this kind of dog 1782 01:21:34,532 --> 01:21:37,052 Speaker 2: attack is rere. Is that just the price we sometimes 1783 01:21:37,053 --> 01:21:39,812 Speaker 2: pay for having man's best friend running around generally making 1784 01:21:39,853 --> 01:21:42,812 Speaker 2: the world a happier place. Where is there some gray 1785 01:21:42,812 --> 01:21:45,173 Speaker 2: area in the middle between killing the dog and letting 1786 01:21:45,173 --> 01:21:45,892 Speaker 2: it run free? 1787 01:21:46,093 --> 01:21:47,932 Speaker 3: You know, hopefully there's some gray area there. 1788 01:21:48,053 --> 01:21:50,213 Speaker 2: I certain dogs. It seems that pit bulls do seem 1789 01:21:50,253 --> 01:21:54,972 Speaker 2: to cause, you know, more problems than other dogs. Certainly 1790 01:21:55,772 --> 01:21:58,293 Speaker 2: cause more problems than a Mini Schnauzer mixed with a 1791 01:21:58,412 --> 01:22:01,452 Speaker 2: Jack Russell like I've got. I mean, it could do 1792 01:22:01,612 --> 01:22:04,293 Speaker 2: very little damage in a Michael Hill jewel and my dog. 1793 01:22:04,452 --> 01:22:06,173 Speaker 3: You could take on a Colin. Collin's a good boy, 1794 01:22:06,213 --> 01:22:07,973 Speaker 3: though he's a very good boy. This football was not 1795 01:22:08,013 --> 01:22:08,333 Speaker 3: a good. 1796 01:22:09,572 --> 01:22:12,213 Speaker 2: The dog owners should also be put down. Okay, well, 1797 01:22:12,213 --> 01:22:14,372 Speaker 2: I mean that's the that's the extreme end of it. 1798 01:22:15,652 --> 01:22:20,333 Speaker 2: The dog should be destroyed immediately. There you go. Pitbull 1799 01:22:20,372 --> 01:22:22,733 Speaker 2: should be put down, no question about it, says Bob. 1800 01:22:23,133 --> 01:22:25,173 Speaker 4: Oh one hundred eighty ten eighty. It is a bit 1801 01:22:25,173 --> 01:22:27,772 Speaker 4: of a nuanced discussion. I mean, clearly there has been 1802 01:22:27,812 --> 01:22:30,612 Speaker 4: calls for some stronger ramifications for the owners, and that's 1803 01:22:30,692 --> 01:22:32,973 Speaker 4: generally I think where I sit. I think when it 1804 01:22:33,013 --> 01:22:36,452 Speaker 4: comes to dog owners, they've got to face the ramifications yet, 1805 01:22:36,492 --> 01:22:38,333 Speaker 4: because it comes down to how you train your dog 1806 01:22:38,452 --> 01:22:40,973 Speaker 4: and the control that you have with your dog, and 1807 01:22:41,013 --> 01:22:43,452 Speaker 4: also the breed that you choose. Matt, you've picked a 1808 01:22:43,492 --> 01:22:46,372 Speaker 4: breed that's a very beautiful breed, but I understand quite 1809 01:22:46,372 --> 01:22:49,253 Speaker 4: an easy to control breed. But if you don't have 1810 01:22:49,293 --> 01:22:51,213 Speaker 4: ConTroll as an owner, even with the window down, and 1811 01:22:51,253 --> 01:22:53,053 Speaker 4: I'm sure that was an accident, and I'm sure that 1812 01:22:53,093 --> 01:22:54,772 Speaker 4: he didn't want the pitball to jump out and run 1813 01:22:54,812 --> 01:22:58,732 Speaker 4: into that jewelry store, but that's your mistake as an owner, 1814 01:22:58,732 --> 01:23:00,013 Speaker 4: and you're going to face the consequences. 1815 01:23:00,093 --> 01:23:02,412 Speaker 2: Yeah, and let's be clear, it didn't kill the dog, 1816 01:23:02,612 --> 01:23:05,412 Speaker 2: It didn't kill anyone or any dog did it? I mean, 1817 01:23:05,452 --> 01:23:07,293 Speaker 2: it's a career ender. I mean, I'll be interested. I 1818 01:23:07,333 --> 01:23:09,093 Speaker 2: mean she says her career is so she was. I'm 1819 01:23:09,093 --> 01:23:10,892 Speaker 2: not sure what she did in the Michael Hill Jewelers, 1820 01:23:11,372 --> 01:23:15,812 Speaker 2: whether she was an intricate jeweler that was, you know, 1821 01:23:16,293 --> 01:23:20,092 Speaker 2: fixing things. I mean, do you do that, Michael Old jeweler? 1822 01:23:20,692 --> 01:23:22,452 Speaker 2: I think, yeah, do you do they fixed? Do they 1823 01:23:22,452 --> 01:23:24,692 Speaker 2: fixed stuff? And Michael hild Dael, it's a good question 1824 01:23:24,732 --> 01:23:27,612 Speaker 2: if you work in that Michael Hill. They might change batteries, 1825 01:23:27,652 --> 01:23:29,412 Speaker 2: but do they fix straps or anything? Or is Michael 1826 01:23:29,492 --> 01:23:34,492 Speaker 2: Michael Hill jeweler rop Michael Hill jeweler. But you know, 1827 01:23:34,532 --> 01:23:36,932 Speaker 2: I'm be interested in order job is. But apparently she's 1828 01:23:36,973 --> 01:23:38,932 Speaker 2: had eight months off work in her careers over So 1829 01:23:39,253 --> 01:23:40,492 Speaker 2: I mean that's not good, is it? 1830 01:23:40,572 --> 01:23:40,732 Speaker 20: No? 1831 01:23:40,893 --> 01:23:41,372 Speaker 3: Certainly not. 1832 01:23:41,412 --> 01:23:43,333 Speaker 4: Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty is the number to call. 1833 01:23:43,372 --> 01:23:44,732 Speaker 4: How do you feel about this? So there need to 1834 01:23:44,732 --> 01:23:46,973 Speaker 4: be stronger dog laws? Do owners need to face some 1835 01:23:47,013 --> 01:23:51,492 Speaker 4: more responsibility? Or is this just a tragic accident and 1836 01:23:51,572 --> 01:23:53,293 Speaker 4: the right outcome was had? Really? Can to have a 1837 01:23:53,372 --> 01:23:55,013 Speaker 4: chat with you? Oh, eight hundred eighty ten eighty is 1838 01:23:55,013 --> 01:23:57,732 Speaker 4: the number to call? It is twelve past three US talks, 1839 01:23:57,772 --> 01:24:01,492 Speaker 4: it'd be afternoon. It is fourteen pass three. So should 1840 01:24:01,532 --> 01:24:05,052 Speaker 4: there be stronger laws and ramifications and consequences for dogs 1841 01:24:05,093 --> 01:24:08,092 Speaker 4: and their owners if there are incidents or attacks? 1842 01:24:08,333 --> 01:24:09,452 Speaker 3: One hundred and eighty ten eighty. 1843 01:24:09,572 --> 01:24:11,732 Speaker 4: This is after a pit bull managed to escape out 1844 01:24:11,732 --> 01:24:14,532 Speaker 4: of the owner's window go into a drawlery store, apparently 1845 01:24:14,572 --> 01:24:18,932 Speaker 4: going for a small kavoodoo a kavoodle, and unfortunately one 1846 01:24:18,933 --> 01:24:20,492 Speaker 4: of the employees got in the way to try and 1847 01:24:20,492 --> 01:24:22,492 Speaker 4: save this dog and got very badly hurt. So what 1848 01:24:22,532 --> 01:24:24,213 Speaker 4: do you say, oh, one hundred and eighty ten eighty. 1849 01:24:24,333 --> 01:24:27,093 Speaker 2: Dog owners need to be made more accountable, says this text. 1850 01:24:27,293 --> 01:24:29,972 Speaker 2: If a dog bites someone, that's assault and the owner 1851 01:24:30,013 --> 01:24:34,253 Speaker 2: should be held responsible. I mean, that does happen. Please 1852 01:24:34,293 --> 01:24:36,892 Speaker 2: don't demonize the breed. I've dealt with more vicious attacks 1853 01:24:36,893 --> 01:24:38,852 Speaker 2: by normal dogs than bully breeds. A lot of people 1854 01:24:38,933 --> 01:24:41,572 Speaker 2: saying that, saying that, you know, it's unfair to say 1855 01:24:41,572 --> 01:24:45,092 Speaker 2: that pit bulls are just bad dogs. But then again, 1856 01:24:45,372 --> 01:24:49,012 Speaker 2: there's this person here that's saying, I'm sick of hearing 1857 01:24:49,053 --> 01:24:50,892 Speaker 2: no such thing as a bad dog. It's all about 1858 01:24:50,933 --> 01:24:52,972 Speaker 2: the owners. Have you ever heard of a Golden Retriever 1859 01:24:53,093 --> 01:24:55,293 Speaker 2: jumping off outer car into a shop to moll or 1860 01:24:55,372 --> 01:24:58,052 Speaker 2: smaller dog. I don't think so. Some breeds are bred 1861 01:24:58,093 --> 01:25:00,692 Speaker 2: because they are aggressive. The dogs should have absolutely been 1862 01:25:00,692 --> 01:25:03,732 Speaker 2: put down and the owner find those dogs should be muzzled, 1863 01:25:03,893 --> 01:25:07,412 Speaker 2: no question about it. Trish, Welcome to the show. 1864 01:25:09,133 --> 01:25:15,932 Speaker 16: Hi. So I'm really curious about this whole situation. I mean, 1865 01:25:16,412 --> 01:25:20,253 Speaker 16: I've been brought up in a dog situation. All our 1866 01:25:20,333 --> 01:25:26,093 Speaker 16: lives had dogs, different ones, hunting dogs, farm dogs. Some 1867 01:25:26,253 --> 01:25:28,812 Speaker 16: dogs just have her have it in their mind that's 1868 01:25:28,853 --> 01:25:31,692 Speaker 16: what they're going to do. And that dog obviously did 1869 01:25:33,013 --> 01:25:35,293 Speaker 16: and it. You know, I just think if there was 1870 01:25:35,333 --> 01:25:38,213 Speaker 16: a little girl walking along the road and that dog 1871 01:25:38,253 --> 01:25:41,532 Speaker 16: got out and mulled her and the dog, it would 1872 01:25:41,532 --> 01:25:45,133 Speaker 16: be a different story. Regardless of the breed, that dog 1873 01:25:45,173 --> 01:25:48,852 Speaker 16: should be put down because it can't be trusted. I've 1874 01:25:48,893 --> 01:25:52,053 Speaker 16: got a dog we've been on the farm. She is 1875 01:25:52,093 --> 01:25:57,772 Speaker 16: a Popham hunter. We now live in the town and 1876 01:25:57,853 --> 01:26:01,652 Speaker 16: unfortunately cats look like Posthams. But she has a command 1877 01:26:01,973 --> 01:26:05,372 Speaker 16: and she knows that what that command is and she 1878 01:26:05,532 --> 01:26:08,053 Speaker 16: stands down as soon as she I say it. So 1879 01:26:09,372 --> 01:26:12,772 Speaker 16: there is way to control your dogs. But it's that 1880 01:26:13,053 --> 01:26:15,412 Speaker 16: poor lady who stepped in, you know, she should get 1881 01:26:15,412 --> 01:26:15,732 Speaker 16: a medal. 1882 01:26:16,253 --> 01:26:18,812 Speaker 2: Yeah, so the dog, you know, part of the an 1883 01:26:19,133 --> 01:26:23,053 Speaker 2: infringement order has been you know, the council has an 1884 01:26:23,093 --> 01:26:26,173 Speaker 2: order to muzzle and new to the dog. So this 1885 01:26:26,293 --> 01:26:30,052 Speaker 2: pitbull is will be well as long as they follow 1886 01:26:30,213 --> 01:26:33,532 Speaker 2: follow the rules, be muzzled out and about and newted. 1887 01:26:34,612 --> 01:26:36,892 Speaker 2: I mean, I'd actually like to know from a vet. 1888 01:26:36,933 --> 01:26:38,892 Speaker 2: Actually I don't know if there's the details of this, 1889 01:26:39,013 --> 01:26:41,852 Speaker 2: but if a dog's aggressive and then you neuter it, 1890 01:26:41,893 --> 01:26:44,532 Speaker 2: does it does it lose its aggression straight away? 1891 01:26:44,612 --> 01:26:45,293 Speaker 16: Or do it does? 1892 01:26:46,333 --> 01:26:46,492 Speaker 15: Know? 1893 01:26:46,612 --> 01:26:50,213 Speaker 16: Not all dogs, not all dogs roll, they will become 1894 01:26:50,253 --> 01:26:54,013 Speaker 16: a less aggressive. But that dog was on a tackmode. 1895 01:26:54,013 --> 01:26:57,572 Speaker 16: That's a totally different different thing. A dog is on 1896 01:26:57,612 --> 01:26:59,933 Speaker 16: a tackmode that that's nothing to do with it. It 1897 01:27:00,133 --> 01:27:02,253 Speaker 16: just it's out to get that that thing. It's like 1898 01:27:02,293 --> 01:27:05,412 Speaker 16: when dogs go after lambs. It's in that attack mode 1899 01:27:05,412 --> 01:27:08,492 Speaker 16: and nothing like that was going to stop it. Think 1900 01:27:08,492 --> 01:27:11,492 Speaker 16: it should be put down for the sake children. I 1901 01:27:11,532 --> 01:27:15,573 Speaker 16: mean of dogs on my life from from our stations, 1902 01:27:15,612 --> 01:27:20,972 Speaker 16: the fox terriers all through and and you know we've 1903 01:27:20,973 --> 01:27:23,812 Speaker 16: had to face some consequences. Women have had an animal 1904 01:27:23,853 --> 01:27:30,412 Speaker 16: which no matter what we did was aggressive, and sadly 1905 01:27:30,973 --> 01:27:34,053 Speaker 16: we have them had to make that decision because we 1906 01:27:34,053 --> 01:27:39,973 Speaker 16: couldn't dog even out and about every day, So it's heartbreaking. 1907 01:27:40,133 --> 01:27:43,053 Speaker 16: Could you love them and something is just in them? 1908 01:27:43,853 --> 01:27:47,093 Speaker 3: So no, Yeah, well I agree with you. 1909 01:27:47,612 --> 01:27:51,372 Speaker 4: If my dog, ever God forbid, attack the child, clearly 1910 01:27:51,412 --> 01:27:53,372 Speaker 4: we'd have to put that dog down and I'd face, 1911 01:27:53,492 --> 01:27:56,692 Speaker 4: quite rightly a mass of fine and some and some 1912 01:27:56,732 --> 01:27:57,933 Speaker 4: serious consequences. 1913 01:27:58,133 --> 01:27:59,692 Speaker 3: But in this instance, I don't know. 1914 01:27:59,732 --> 01:27:59,972 Speaker 2: True. 1915 01:28:00,093 --> 01:28:02,692 Speaker 4: I think for the most part, unless this dog has 1916 01:28:02,692 --> 01:28:05,932 Speaker 4: a history of attacking people or being aggressive, that's different. 1917 01:28:06,013 --> 01:28:08,892 Speaker 4: That's almost like a three strikes policy. But in general, 1918 01:28:08,933 --> 01:28:12,852 Speaker 4: my my thinking is that you do everything you can 1919 01:28:12,933 --> 01:28:15,133 Speaker 4: to save the dog's life, and the owner should face 1920 01:28:15,173 --> 01:28:18,732 Speaker 4: the ramifications here and whether this owner has faced enough ramifications, 1921 01:28:18,933 --> 01:28:21,532 Speaker 4: I don't think so. But putting down a dog should 1922 01:28:21,572 --> 01:28:24,333 Speaker 4: be just for the dogs that cannot be saved. 1923 01:28:25,253 --> 01:28:25,532 Speaker 22: Yeah. 1924 01:28:25,572 --> 01:28:27,612 Speaker 16: Well, yes, as a way of looking at it, but 1925 01:28:28,492 --> 01:28:31,732 Speaker 16: that when a dog just jumps out for and it 1926 01:28:31,772 --> 01:28:34,253 Speaker 16: looks at something, it's on an attack mode. And that's 1927 01:28:34,293 --> 01:28:37,653 Speaker 16: totally different to what you're talking about, where just bite. 1928 01:28:37,452 --> 01:28:40,213 Speaker 2: People just because yeah, I mean, I mean, it's it's 1929 01:28:40,253 --> 01:28:41,892 Speaker 2: jumped out of it. It's jumped out of the window. 1930 01:28:42,572 --> 01:28:44,372 Speaker 2: It's jumped out of a window, Trishan. It's gone like 1931 01:28:44,412 --> 01:28:47,092 Speaker 2: a it's gone like a missile into a Michael Hill Jewelers. 1932 01:28:47,133 --> 01:28:49,052 Speaker 2: And it's a tactic of voodle. It was on a mission, 1933 01:28:49,093 --> 01:28:49,932 Speaker 2: you're right, trash. 1934 01:28:50,333 --> 01:28:52,973 Speaker 16: Yeah, it was on a mission. And now during it 1935 01:28:53,692 --> 01:28:56,133 Speaker 16: and musling, well, muzzling it will stop it from buying, 1936 01:28:56,253 --> 01:29:00,093 Speaker 16: but will lessen it. But it's still in. It's still 1937 01:29:00,133 --> 01:29:00,732 Speaker 16: in that dog. 1938 01:29:01,293 --> 01:29:03,933 Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you. Called it's rough sce. I called a 1939 01:29:04,013 --> 01:29:06,333 Speaker 2: rough job working in a Michael Hill jeweler, doesn't it. 1940 01:29:06,452 --> 01:29:08,692 Speaker 2: I mean, we're not hearing so much of it.

While it's not a guarantee fixed for all 1949 01:29:33,093 --> 01:29:36,413 Speaker 2: aggressive behaviors, utering can help decrease the intensity and frequency 1950 01:29:36,732 --> 01:29:38,452 Speaker 2: of aggression in many cases. 1951 01:29:38,853 --> 01:29:41,333 Speaker 3: Interesting, Yeah, I think it would make me a bit calmer. 1952 01:29:42,013 --> 01:29:43,973 Speaker 2: Right, have you not been you?

Sorry, dear Tyler. I believe that she 1990 01:31:24,253 --> 01:31:28,613 Speaker 2: that she was protecting her heroically, the kavoodle and the customer. 1991 01:31:29,452 --> 01:31:32,372 Speaker 2: But I don't think that the the pit bull actually 1992 01:31:32,372 --> 01:31:35,173 Speaker 2: bit her. I think it was the yanking around of 1993 01:31:35,213 --> 01:31:38,892 Speaker 2: the strong pitbull that messed up her shoulder, hence her 1994 01:31:38,893 --> 01:31:42,293 Speaker 2: having spent eight months off work and was ultimately unable 1995 01:31:42,333 --> 01:31:44,773 Speaker 2: to return due to lifting requirements. 1996 01:31:45,173 --> 01:31:47,412 Speaker 4: YEP, spot on one hundred and eighty ten eighty is 1997 01:31:47,452 --> 01:31:49,972 Speaker 4: the number to call if you text on this one 1998 01:31:50,053 --> 01:31:53,092 Speaker 4: guy's a dog's propensity to bite plus one bite equals 1999 01:31:53,133 --> 01:31:56,333 Speaker 4: the bullets plus automatic prosecution of the owner. This used 2000 01:31:56,333 --> 01:31:59,293 Speaker 4: to be the position under previous dog control legislation. Too 2001 01:31:59,293 --> 01:32:02,732 Speaker 4: many uncontrolled, threatening dogs out there from Bruce. But again, Bruce, 2002 01:32:02,812 --> 01:32:05,492 Speaker 4: this wasn't a situation where the dog a bit a human. 2003 01:32:05,532 --> 01:32:08,173 Speaker 4: It was going for the kavoodle. And this woman injured 2004 01:32:08,213 --> 01:32:11,773 Speaker 4: her shoulder trying to pull the pitbull out of that situation, 2005 01:32:11,893 --> 01:32:13,333 Speaker 4: and that's how she sustained her injury. 2006 01:32:13,452 --> 01:32:14,253 Speaker 3: So it is a bit different. 2007 01:32:14,293 --> 01:32:16,692 Speaker 2: So I'm trying to paraphrase this because it's quite aggressive text. 2008 01:32:16,732 --> 01:32:21,412 Speaker 2: But it's starve a pitball for two weeks, cover the 2009 01:32:21,492 --> 01:32:26,692 Speaker 2: driver in blood from rotten steak, and then release a 2010 01:32:26,732 --> 01:32:29,532 Speaker 2: pitball into the car with the driver. 2011 01:32:31,732 --> 01:32:34,852 Speaker 3: That's very medieval. It's a hell of a punishment. 2012 01:32:34,853 --> 01:32:39,053 Speaker 2: That's a very medieval punishment. It's very I for eye 2013 01:32:39,093 --> 01:32:41,532 Speaker 2: kind of punishment, isn't it our welcome to the show? 2014 01:32:42,412 --> 01:32:43,053 Speaker 13: Yeah, how are we? 2015 01:32:43,293 --> 01:32:45,892 Speaker 9: That's a bit groom and. 2016 01:32:45,812 --> 01:32:47,732 Speaker 2: A ca I don't think we support that. 2017 01:32:48,612 --> 01:32:51,652 Speaker 13: No, No, But I can say, I'll see been a 2018 01:32:51,732 --> 01:32:55,293 Speaker 13: farmer and been taken a for years training all sorts 2019 01:32:55,333 --> 01:32:58,053 Speaker 13: of different kind of dolls. I think what everyone sort 2020 01:32:58,053 --> 01:33:02,333 Speaker 13: of passes on is one. It's the type of breed. 2021 01:33:02,492 --> 01:33:05,213 Speaker 13: So the owners need to when they're going to buy 2022 01:33:05,253 --> 01:33:07,412 Speaker 13: a doll like that or raise a doll like that, 2023 01:33:07,492 --> 01:33:10,692 Speaker 13: they need specially requirement special abilities to be able to 2024 01:33:10,692 --> 01:33:12,452 Speaker 13: blow the energy out of those dogs. 2025 01:33:12,853 --> 01:33:13,412 Speaker 9: Because they do. 2026 01:33:13,532 --> 01:33:15,652 Speaker 13: They sit at home and on the kennel and get 2027 01:33:15,732 --> 01:33:17,852 Speaker 13: stir crazy and they just bark at people and that's 2028 01:33:17,853 --> 01:33:21,452 Speaker 13: when the aggression start. And they raise a good point 2029 01:33:21,492 --> 01:33:24,173 Speaker 13: in saying murdering actually does a lot more than what 2030 01:33:24,173 --> 01:33:26,652 Speaker 13: people realize, but it's on time frames and when you 2031 01:33:26,772 --> 01:33:29,412 Speaker 13: needed them. There's no point of doing that now depending 2032 01:33:29,412 --> 01:33:33,492 Speaker 13: on his age, because he's already learned that aggression. You've 2033 01:33:33,492 --> 01:33:35,772 Speaker 13: got to do that early and at the get go 2034 01:33:36,013 --> 01:33:39,572 Speaker 13: and put someone on a dormant sort of easy sort 2035 01:33:39,612 --> 01:33:42,372 Speaker 13: of mindset, and then you can train off that and 2036 01:33:42,772 --> 01:33:44,732 Speaker 13: keep that going. But if you do it, if you 2037 01:33:44,732 --> 01:33:46,852 Speaker 13: don't do it, they'll have that dest off and that 2038 01:33:46,973 --> 01:33:51,452 Speaker 13: boy stress and that I suppose going them so you 2039 01:33:51,532 --> 01:33:53,452 Speaker 13: can't harness it or control it. When they get old, 2040 01:33:53,492 --> 01:33:55,452 Speaker 13: because I'm in the old saying you can't teach old 2041 01:33:55,452 --> 01:33:58,612 Speaker 13: dogs and tricks, and in some circumstances when when it 2042 01:33:58,652 --> 01:34:02,253 Speaker 13: comes to aggression, you can't. It's bloody hard to get 2043 01:34:02,253 --> 01:34:03,932 Speaker 13: it out of them. And if you do ever get 2044 01:34:03,933 --> 01:34:05,532 Speaker 13: it out of them, it's not a very pretty way 2045 01:34:05,532 --> 01:34:05,932 Speaker 13: to do it. 2046 01:34:06,692 --> 01:34:08,972 Speaker 2: Hey, this is a question and online on this because 2047 01:34:08,973 --> 01:34:13,293 Speaker 2: I've only ever had new to dogs. But yeah, what 2048 01:34:13,492 --> 01:34:16,532 Speaker 2: I mean, I guess people leave the back wheels on 2049 01:34:16,572 --> 01:34:18,093 Speaker 2: because they want to breed with them. I guess that's 2050 01:34:18,133 --> 01:34:19,612 Speaker 2: why they choose to do it. 2051 01:34:20,293 --> 01:34:23,173 Speaker 13: Yes, yeah, and that's one thing. But then I mean, 2052 01:34:23,213 --> 01:34:25,093 Speaker 13: if you can't control the dog, no one's going to 2053 01:34:25,093 --> 01:34:26,013 Speaker 13: buy your dog, are you? 2054 01:34:26,692 --> 01:34:27,612 Speaker 9: So I suppose it. 2055 01:34:27,572 --> 01:34:29,333 Speaker 13: All comes down so if you want to be a breeder, 2056 01:34:29,372 --> 01:34:29,892 Speaker 13: then you need. 2057 01:34:29,812 --> 01:34:31,972 Speaker 9: To be able to control that to do it. 2058 01:34:33,372 --> 01:34:38,372 Speaker 13: Otherwise before you needed them, maybe you get the spoon baking, 2059 01:34:38,452 --> 01:34:41,372 Speaker 13: then freeze them, sotell. But you to be honest with you, 2060 01:34:41,452 --> 01:34:43,732 Speaker 13: if you're going to breed, no one's going to buy 2061 01:34:43,772 --> 01:34:46,372 Speaker 13: a dog off you if it's it's as wild as anything. 2062 01:34:47,213 --> 01:34:49,372 Speaker 13: But then I think regulations need to come into place 2063 01:34:49,412 --> 01:34:52,532 Speaker 13: there too, Like if you can't prove or have a 2064 01:34:52,572 --> 01:34:54,572 Speaker 13: go to a course or do something to prove that 2065 01:34:54,612 --> 01:34:56,572 Speaker 13: you can be able to handle those kind of breeds, 2066 01:34:56,572 --> 01:34:58,692 Speaker 13: because it's not like you Jeck Russell, but they're not. 2067 01:34:58,853 --> 01:35:01,812 Speaker 13: They are firing and upling, going to do but they 2068 01:35:01,853 --> 01:35:05,812 Speaker 13: haven't got that aggression towards humans or anything else. They 2069 01:35:05,853 --> 01:35:08,093 Speaker 13: got their aggression with little animals, little brabbits in there. 2070 01:35:08,133 --> 01:35:10,572 Speaker 13: But and you know, I think people need to be 2071 01:35:10,692 --> 01:35:14,412 Speaker 13: under some sort of jurisdiction to be able to bring 2072 01:35:14,412 --> 01:35:16,732 Speaker 13: these dogs up, otherwise they will they'll just turn fear aal. 2073 01:35:17,732 --> 01:35:20,652 Speaker 2: What kind of dogs do you breed on on on farms, elf? 2074 01:35:22,213 --> 01:35:23,053 Speaker 20: Well, I did a. 2075 01:35:22,973 --> 01:35:24,973 Speaker 13: Lot of SECA dogs. So I took a lot of 2076 01:35:25,053 --> 01:35:28,372 Speaker 13: SCA dogs and I broke them in to be pig dogs, 2077 01:35:28,372 --> 01:35:30,293 Speaker 13: and some of them I broke them into be Kendle dogs. 2078 01:35:30,293 --> 01:35:34,452 Speaker 13: And otherwise it's just farm dogs just wear the mouths 2079 01:35:34,492 --> 01:35:35,772 Speaker 13: and mates and all the rest of them. We just 2080 01:35:35,812 --> 01:35:37,412 Speaker 13: trade ups and all the rest. And that's how I 2081 01:35:37,532 --> 01:35:42,652 Speaker 13: sort of growing up. But then to me, SBHA dogs 2082 01:35:42,692 --> 01:35:44,812 Speaker 13: ended up being most pitfalls and rock wheelers and all 2083 01:35:44,812 --> 01:35:47,173 Speaker 13: the rest of that, not drop wheelers but fitballs, and 2084 01:35:47,213 --> 01:35:50,492 Speaker 13: that they actually were the best loyal friends. Competitions that 2085 01:35:50,532 --> 01:35:51,452 Speaker 13: you could have, and so. 2086 01:35:51,772 --> 01:35:53,213 Speaker 2: You think you're you're along with these people that are 2087 01:35:53,253 --> 01:35:55,972 Speaker 2: texting and saying, it's not the breed, it's the it's 2088 01:35:56,013 --> 01:35:59,253 Speaker 2: the you know, it's the owner not understanding how to 2089 01:35:59,293 --> 01:36:02,093 Speaker 2: deal with the breed. So if if a pitbull is 2090 01:36:02,093 --> 01:36:04,053 Speaker 2: brought up in the right way and trained in the 2091 01:36:04,093 --> 01:36:06,692 Speaker 2: right way, can a pitball be a peaceful, peaceful animal 2092 01:36:06,692 --> 01:36:07,293 Speaker 2: that someone can. 2093 01:36:07,213 --> 01:36:10,572 Speaker 13: Have undred percent understand, I'd let the kid ride it, 2094 01:36:10,612 --> 01:36:13,612 Speaker 13: you know, and then you wove it. So to me, 2095 01:36:13,933 --> 01:36:17,092 Speaker 13: that whole scenario is just pure negligence from the owner. 2096 01:36:17,812 --> 01:36:20,133 Speaker 13: If they had that genuincy, which I can't believe that 2097 01:36:20,853 --> 01:36:23,412 Speaker 13: they would not have known that right to the injury 2098 01:36:23,612 --> 01:36:26,772 Speaker 13: if eccellent at the negligence they having that window open. 2099 01:36:28,452 --> 01:36:30,852 Speaker 4: But do you always put the I mean in this situation, 2100 01:36:30,893 --> 01:36:33,213 Speaker 4: and it is a unique situation, elf that if the 2101 01:36:33,213 --> 01:36:36,692 Speaker 4: dog didn't go for the employee ning question and the 2102 01:36:36,732 --> 01:36:38,692 Speaker 4: injury happened trying to pull the dog off, do you 2103 01:36:38,812 --> 01:36:41,412 Speaker 4: always go with putting down the dog? Wouldn't it make 2104 01:36:41,452 --> 01:36:44,173 Speaker 4: more sense in this situation if the owner wasn't responsible, 2105 01:36:44,173 --> 01:36:46,412 Speaker 4: that you ban that person from owning dogs, because it 2106 01:36:46,452 --> 01:36:48,812 Speaker 4: is it's a privilege, not a right that you ban 2107 01:36:48,973 --> 01:36:51,532 Speaker 4: them from owning dogs for a period of time. So 2108 01:36:51,612 --> 01:36:53,412 Speaker 4: because there's more, I mean, you know, my point is 2109 01:36:53,452 --> 01:36:56,612 Speaker 4: it's about owner responsibility, and I it does frustrate me. 2110 01:36:56,692 --> 01:36:58,572 Speaker 4: I'm a dog lover, clearly I am, and people will 2111 01:36:58,572 --> 01:37:00,572 Speaker 4: abuse me for being too woke on this, but it 2112 01:37:00,612 --> 01:37:03,532 Speaker 4: does piss me off when dogs are continually put down 2113 01:37:03,772 --> 01:37:05,372 Speaker 4: because the owners were the kids. 2114 01:37:06,173 --> 01:37:09,693 Speaker 13: Yeah, now so I I to my from my perspective 2115 01:37:09,732 --> 01:37:11,772 Speaker 13: on that is it depends the age of that dog. 2116 01:37:12,692 --> 01:37:14,532 Speaker 13: Definitely should be taken away from the owner because the 2117 01:37:14,572 --> 01:37:17,132 Speaker 13: owner can't handle it. And then having that risk around 2118 01:37:17,293 --> 01:37:21,812 Speaker 13: in town for any other possibly human or other little animals, 2119 01:37:21,812 --> 01:37:25,372 Speaker 13: canceled dogs or whatever it is, that's just not something 2120 01:37:25,412 --> 01:37:28,012 Speaker 13: that should be around in town, you know, like little 2121 01:37:28,652 --> 01:37:32,893 Speaker 13: The other scary thing is little kids are also perceived 2122 01:37:32,973 --> 01:37:35,932 Speaker 13: as as little dogs too. You know that the dogs 2123 01:37:36,013 --> 01:37:39,372 Speaker 13: have that that different with adults and hard with kids. 2124 01:37:39,372 --> 01:37:40,812 Speaker 13: And I don't know to people with kids that have 2125 01:37:40,933 --> 01:37:44,253 Speaker 13: had no potentially aggressive dogs will notice that too, that 2126 01:37:44,333 --> 01:37:48,372 Speaker 13: they are I'll be mindful around him because he you know, 2127 01:37:49,612 --> 01:37:52,772 Speaker 13: so I think that dog may be on age. You 2128 01:37:52,853 --> 01:37:54,572 Speaker 13: might be able to save it to another family that'll 2129 01:37:54,572 --> 01:37:56,532 Speaker 13: be able to handle it because it's not like said 2130 01:37:56,652 --> 01:37:58,652 Speaker 13: at a human, but it's still had another dog. And 2131 01:37:58,692 --> 01:38:02,572 Speaker 13: then ways that we've got around it into severe cases 2132 01:38:02,572 --> 01:38:06,612 Speaker 13: on the farm is packing them just get the dogs 2133 01:38:06,612 --> 01:38:10,652 Speaker 13: attack them, and it's a sort of hierarchy. The hierarchy 2134 01:38:10,652 --> 01:38:11,932 Speaker 13: is pretty well the only way to get it out 2135 01:38:11,973 --> 01:38:15,772 Speaker 13: of them in their own sort of species. So yeah, 2136 01:38:15,853 --> 01:38:17,532 Speaker 13: I don't know. It depends on the age of dog. 2137 01:38:17,612 --> 01:38:19,293 Speaker 13: The dog young enough to be able to, you know, 2138 01:38:19,492 --> 01:38:22,732 Speaker 13: potentially come back then do it. But to be honest 2139 01:38:22,732 --> 01:38:25,812 Speaker 13: with here, it needs to definitely come out of town, 2140 01:38:25,893 --> 01:38:29,133 Speaker 13: regardless look way it comes out, whether it gets here, 2141 01:38:29,293 --> 01:38:32,492 Speaker 13: put down or taken somewhere else, that it definitely needs 2142 01:38:32,492 --> 01:38:34,253 Speaker 13: to come out of town because you can't have that happening, 2143 01:38:34,333 --> 01:38:34,572 Speaker 13: can you. 2144 01:38:35,213 --> 01:38:38,012 Speaker 2: I think if you call alf the tests says, firstly, 2145 01:38:38,013 --> 01:38:39,933 Speaker 2: are you stupid? Why would you risk your safety for 2146 01:38:39,973 --> 01:38:42,213 Speaker 2: another dog? The dog's life is far less important than 2147 01:38:42,253 --> 01:38:45,053 Speaker 2: your person. I'm sure her career is not over. I'm 2148 01:38:45,053 --> 01:38:47,572 Speaker 2: sure she can work in retail. Again. Pitbulls are not 2149 01:38:47,612 --> 01:38:50,612 Speaker 2: inherently bad or dangerous. It's how they are raised and 2150 01:38:50,652 --> 01:38:52,892 Speaker 2: treated that will make them aggressive. I am a firm 2151 01:38:52,933 --> 01:38:55,812 Speaker 2: believer that if you are a dog owner of any breed, breed, 2152 01:38:55,893 --> 01:38:58,532 Speaker 2: you need to train your dog. Even small dogs should 2153 01:38:58,532 --> 01:39:00,972 Speaker 2: be trained. I hate when owners of small dogs think 2154 01:39:01,013 --> 01:39:03,933 Speaker 2: they can't do much damage, so why train them. The 2155 01:39:03,973 --> 01:39:06,612 Speaker 2: issue is that they then set off the big dogs 2156 01:39:06,612 --> 01:39:08,972 Speaker 2: with yapping and nipping at them. That's true. All dogs 2157 01:39:09,013 --> 01:39:11,213 Speaker 2: need to be controlled and restrained by the owner. So, 2158 01:39:12,053 --> 01:39:14,133 Speaker 2: as we said before, this woman that was attacked in 2159 01:39:14,173 --> 01:39:16,972 Speaker 2: the Michael Hill Jeweler, the employee of over twenty years, 2160 01:39:16,973 --> 01:39:20,452 Speaker 2: Stacy Penn. She'll be on with Heather Duplessy Yellen after 2161 01:39:20,452 --> 01:39:24,692 Speaker 2: four o'clock. But so, she wasn't stupid by by all accounts. 2162 01:39:24,732 --> 01:39:28,572 Speaker 2: She was heroic because she jumped in between the dog 2163 01:39:29,253 --> 01:39:32,412 Speaker 2: and the customer. And the customer so the customer had 2164 01:39:32,452 --> 01:39:36,892 Speaker 2: the lap dog. The pitbull was in the car driving past. Well, 2165 01:39:36,933 --> 01:39:39,213 Speaker 2: the pitbull wasn't driving the dog. Pretty sure that someone 2166 01:39:39,412 --> 01:39:41,253 Speaker 2: someone was driving the car. The pitbull was in the 2167 01:39:41,253 --> 01:39:43,692 Speaker 2: passenger seat, I believe. Not sure if the pit bull 2168 01:39:43,692 --> 01:39:46,052 Speaker 2: was wearing at seatbelt or not. I'm not sure. 2169 01:39:46,333 --> 01:39:46,812 Speaker 3: Good question. 2170 01:39:46,933 --> 01:39:50,372 Speaker 2: I'm the pitple had made it click. We'll find that out. 2171 01:39:50,412 --> 01:39:53,173 Speaker 2: But the pitbull saw the kavoodle, jumped out of the car, 2172 01:39:53,293 --> 01:39:56,492 Speaker 2: ran across the road into the Michael Hill Jeweler and 2173 01:39:56,612 --> 01:40:00,092 Speaker 2: this woman, Stacy Pen jumped out to protect the customer 2174 01:40:00,173 --> 01:40:03,412 Speaker 2: and the kavoodle. So I think she might be the 2175 01:40:03,452 --> 01:40:06,852 Speaker 2: hero in this situation. Sounds like you'll hear about the 2176 01:40:06,893 --> 01:40:08,972 Speaker 2: injuries that she got, but I'm pretty sure went bytes 2177 01:40:09,213 --> 01:40:09,892 Speaker 2: after four. 2178 01:40:10,173 --> 01:40:12,253 Speaker 4: Yeap Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty is the number 2179 01:40:12,253 --> 01:40:14,972 Speaker 4: to call?

Seventy six? 2227 01:42:35,492 --> 01:42:36,173 Speaker 9: Seventy six? 2228 01:42:36,412 --> 01:42:40,213 Speaker 20: Wow, it just comes and goes rolling door. We're all 2229 01:42:40,253 --> 01:42:44,093 Speaker 20: all the rescues are full. I've had Staffy's pitbulls, every 2230 01:42:44,173 --> 01:42:48,173 Speaker 20: breed you can imagine. I actually stopped fostering because I've 2231 01:42:48,293 --> 01:42:51,572 Speaker 20: taken on a Husky. I just want to bring home 2232 01:42:51,612 --> 01:42:54,532 Speaker 20: the point that, at one hundred percent is the dog 2233 01:42:54,612 --> 01:42:58,253 Speaker 20: owner's responsibility each one of my foster dogs. I would 2234 01:42:58,812 --> 01:43:04,092 Speaker 20: test every single dog with children, with small dogs, big dogs, male, female, 2235 01:43:04,133 --> 01:43:07,732 Speaker 20: et cetera. I got to really understand each individual dog 2236 01:43:07,772 --> 01:43:10,852 Speaker 20: and then need and that quirks my boy at the moment. 2237 01:43:11,013 --> 01:43:13,572 Speaker 20: I know that he's had his balls for you know, 2238 01:43:13,612 --> 01:43:15,253 Speaker 20: a year and a half, so he's got a bit 2239 01:43:15,293 --> 01:43:19,612 Speaker 20: of territorial nature with male dogs, you know. So I 2240 01:43:19,692 --> 01:43:22,133 Speaker 20: make sure my leash is strong, he's got a good 2241 01:43:22,253 --> 01:43:24,533 Speaker 20: collar and harness, you know. I make sure he's contained. 2242 01:43:25,253 --> 01:43:27,973 Speaker 20: I don't leave my car door open so that the 2243 01:43:28,013 --> 01:43:32,133 Speaker 20: dog can jump out if he had the propensity to 2244 01:43:32,253 --> 01:43:34,692 Speaker 20: jump out, if he was that kind of dog. It 2245 01:43:34,772 --> 01:43:36,492 Speaker 20: kind of makes me think that this owner was not 2246 01:43:36,532 --> 01:43:37,372 Speaker 20: being responsible. 2247 01:43:37,412 --> 01:43:39,772 Speaker 2: We had a dog jumped out of the window like 2248 01:43:39,812 --> 01:43:42,173 Speaker 2: the door wasn't open. But yeah, I get you, yeah, yeah, 2249 01:43:42,492 --> 01:43:44,253 Speaker 2: yeah yeah. 2250 01:43:44,293 --> 01:43:46,333 Speaker 20: And it comes back to one of the things that 2251 01:43:46,372 --> 01:43:49,013 Speaker 20: I have always encouraged a lot of dog owners to 2252 01:43:49,013 --> 01:43:52,572 Speaker 20: do is socialize your dogs early and often, especially during 2253 01:43:52,572 --> 01:43:55,852 Speaker 20: the puppy hood and teenage stage. It sounds like this 2254 01:43:56,013 --> 01:44:00,333 Speaker 20: dog was not socialized. It sounds like the cavertile was pobbery, challenging, 2255 01:44:00,452 --> 01:44:03,213 Speaker 20: or flaring to that dog. And but that gives that 2256 01:44:03,253 --> 01:44:05,452 Speaker 20: dog no right to jump out of the window of 2257 01:44:05,452 --> 01:44:07,692 Speaker 20: the car and bolt towards the dog. My dog would 2258 01:44:07,692 --> 01:44:12,813 Speaker 20: never do that, despite his you know mail on male difficulties. 2259 01:44:14,253 --> 01:44:16,412 Speaker 2: Hey, so you said that you've left the back wheels 2260 01:44:16,412 --> 01:44:19,692 Speaker 2: on your dog? Is that? And and so you know, 2261 01:44:19,812 --> 01:44:21,173 Speaker 2: what do you say about a year and a half? 2262 01:44:21,253 --> 01:44:25,052 Speaker 2: So are you saying that the aggression grows over time? 2263 01:44:26,213 --> 01:44:28,253 Speaker 2: And so if you left them off for longer, they'd 2264 01:44:28,333 --> 01:44:32,892 Speaker 2: be more aggressive. But you know we're talking four right, Okay, Sorry, you. 2265 01:44:32,812 --> 01:44:36,572 Speaker 20: Got a lot of people. They make the mistake in 2266 01:44:36,612 --> 01:44:38,452 Speaker 20: thinking that neutering your dog is going to get rid 2267 01:44:38,452 --> 01:44:41,692 Speaker 20: of aggression. It doesn't. It calms them down, and it 2268 01:44:41,772 --> 01:44:44,572 Speaker 20: takes six months to do that. I firmly believe everyone 2269 01:44:44,612 --> 01:44:47,932 Speaker 20: should be neutering their dogs. If they don't have intention 2270 01:44:48,253 --> 01:44:51,573 Speaker 20: like a pure breed to breed them, it should be mandated. 2271 01:44:51,612 --> 01:44:54,772 Speaker 20: In fact, I think there's a charity that was trying 2272 01:44:54,772 --> 01:44:58,253 Speaker 20: to ban the life chaining of dogs back in twenty 2273 01:44:58,333 --> 01:45:01,412 Speaker 20: twenty or twenty twenty one Chain Dog of Winness. That 2274 01:45:01,812 --> 01:45:06,772 Speaker 20: bill actually sat past the petitions committee. And what's changed 2275 01:45:07,612 --> 01:45:11,492 Speaker 20: people what we call life chaining, so they chain a 2276 01:45:11,532 --> 01:45:14,452 Speaker 20: dog in the backyard for months. 2277 01:45:14,652 --> 01:45:15,052 Speaker 3: Years. 2278 01:45:15,333 --> 01:45:17,053 Speaker 20: I've rescued dogs that have been on the chain in 2279 01:45:17,053 --> 01:45:21,132 Speaker 20: someone's backyard after nine years, and some of these dogs 2280 01:45:21,133 --> 01:45:25,772 Speaker 20: they just lose the fight, right And like a good 2281 01:45:25,772 --> 01:45:28,092 Speaker 20: thing for me though, is like they're a complete blank slate. 2282 01:45:28,173 --> 01:45:30,973 Speaker 20: I can train them from the start. It's beautiful. I 2283 01:45:30,973 --> 01:45:33,333 Speaker 20: can train them every command of the sun, and they're 2284 01:45:33,372 --> 01:45:36,973 Speaker 20: really well behaved. But socializing them with other dogs is 2285 01:45:37,013 --> 01:45:41,933 Speaker 20: a process. As you can imagine. The libertarian in me 2286 01:45:42,013 --> 01:45:44,213 Speaker 20: is kind of anty of what my other idea was. 2287 01:45:44,293 --> 01:45:47,692 Speaker 20: But I actually think that dog owners should have some 2288 01:45:47,732 --> 01:45:50,772 Speaker 20: sort of label on your letterbox, et cetera, to say 2289 01:45:50,812 --> 01:45:55,213 Speaker 20: that this address is like, there's a registered dog owner here, 2290 01:45:55,333 --> 01:45:58,093 Speaker 20: and if you scan like some sort of code, these 2291 01:45:58,133 --> 01:46:00,452 Speaker 20: are the dogs that are registered that that address. I 2292 01:46:00,492 --> 01:46:04,652 Speaker 20: think in my kind of it's really or willian, but 2293 01:46:04,973 --> 01:46:07,132 Speaker 20: I kind of feel that you should not be allowed 2294 01:46:07,173 --> 01:46:11,572 Speaker 20: to have dogs if you haven't got a registration on 2295 01:46:11,772 --> 01:46:13,932 Speaker 20: on the front of your property. And so a council 2296 01:46:14,053 --> 01:46:17,253 Speaker 20: animal control officer can come along scan your code and say, yep, 2297 01:46:17,293 --> 01:46:20,253 Speaker 20: you've got a husky and a border Collie and yep, 2298 01:46:20,333 --> 01:46:22,173 Speaker 20: and so what is that random petsll doing there? And 2299 01:46:22,173 --> 01:46:23,972 Speaker 20: then they go and investigate, or if there's a dog 2300 01:46:24,013 --> 01:46:27,572 Speaker 20: that's wondering in someone's property, or if someone simply has 2301 01:46:27,572 --> 01:46:29,492 Speaker 20: a bunch of dogs and they haven't got them registered, 2302 01:46:29,772 --> 01:46:32,253 Speaker 20: You've got thirty days to comply, or all yours, all 2303 01:46:32,253 --> 01:46:34,293 Speaker 20: your dogs get taken away. 2304 01:46:33,572 --> 01:46:36,333 Speaker 2: See that cumstance. I'm on my letter box. I mean, 2305 01:46:36,372 --> 01:46:39,612 Speaker 2: I've got a snack, many many snails, a jack wrestle cross, 2306 01:46:39,612 --> 01:46:41,452 Speaker 2: but i'd get the stick at it the head. You know, 2307 01:46:41,933 --> 01:46:46,412 Speaker 2: five rock Wheelers, three German Shepherds, five Doberman and American 2308 01:46:46,412 --> 01:46:48,772 Speaker 2: football teria the good security If that was listed on 2309 01:46:48,853 --> 01:46:50,093 Speaker 2: your letter box. 2310 01:46:50,853 --> 01:46:53,293 Speaker 20: Well yeah, I mean, well you need to breeder's license. 2311 01:46:53,333 --> 01:46:56,253 Speaker 20: We have that many dogs. But that also furthers the point, 2312 01:46:56,333 --> 01:46:57,933 Speaker 20: isn't it. Like there's a lot of people out the 2313 01:46:58,093 --> 01:47:00,372 Speaker 20: South Aukland I property manage out in South Aukland. There's 2314 01:47:00,372 --> 01:47:02,012 Speaker 20: a lot of people that have like five ten dogs 2315 01:47:02,013 --> 01:47:04,173 Speaker 20: in their property but no license to keep them, and 2316 01:47:04,253 --> 01:47:06,692 Speaker 20: because the neighbors don't report them, it just keeps going on. 2317 01:47:07,053 --> 01:47:08,972 Speaker 20: These are the places that I rest your dogs from 2318 01:47:09,053 --> 01:47:11,133 Speaker 20: where you go to some hoarder's place and they've got 2319 01:47:11,133 --> 01:47:13,813 Speaker 20: twenty dogs in the backyard, all chained up to mattresses 2320 01:47:13,853 --> 01:47:15,452 Speaker 20: and under the house and all that. 2321 01:47:15,532 --> 01:47:18,652 Speaker 2: So why do they want so many dogs? I don't. 2322 01:47:18,692 --> 01:47:20,772 Speaker 2: I don't get it. Is it because they're they're breed, 2323 01:47:20,933 --> 01:47:23,813 Speaker 2: or it's what it's emotional. 2324 01:47:25,253 --> 01:47:27,572 Speaker 20: These sort of people that have more than five dogs 2325 01:47:27,612 --> 01:47:31,812 Speaker 20: tend to be hoarders in nature. Right, And you are 2326 01:47:31,853 --> 01:47:35,253 Speaker 20: writing that there is an element of property protection, so 2327 01:47:35,452 --> 01:47:38,093 Speaker 20: one thing that maybe a lot of listeners aren't aware of. 2328 01:47:38,213 --> 01:47:41,213 Speaker 20: In Auckland, if your gate is closed and it's and 2329 01:47:41,253 --> 01:47:43,572 Speaker 20: it's closed and no one can walk onto your property 2330 01:47:43,612 --> 01:47:46,652 Speaker 20: with a mission, if your dog attacks someone that comes 2331 01:47:46,692 --> 01:47:50,532 Speaker 20: onto the property, you're okay, the dog is perfectly okay 2332 01:47:50,532 --> 01:47:52,213 Speaker 20: to do that according to animal control. 2333 01:47:52,452 --> 01:47:57,372 Speaker 2: Right, okay, you know face that, you. 2334 01:47:57,293 --> 01:47:59,372 Speaker 20: Know, shouldn't everyone be able to walk up to your 2335 01:47:59,372 --> 01:48:02,213 Speaker 20: front door? So it kind of is a dichotomy there. 2336 01:48:02,612 --> 01:48:06,093 Speaker 2: Yeah, well it's handy if you've ordered something of Amazon. 2337 01:48:05,732 --> 01:48:07,892 Speaker 3: Or something you get a pass the lock. 2338 01:48:09,452 --> 01:48:09,692 Speaker 9: Yeah. 2339 01:48:09,772 --> 01:48:11,892 Speaker 2: Hey, thanks for your call, Mark, and thanks for your 2340 01:48:11,893 --> 01:48:14,172 Speaker 2: insights on that.

But 2400 01:51:06,053 --> 01:51:09,092 Speaker 6: the dog had to be put down, little little poodle. 2401 01:51:09,213 --> 01:51:13,492 Speaker 6: But I spoke to the vet a few days later 2402 01:51:13,652 --> 01:51:15,892 Speaker 6: and asked about what do we do because I had 2403 01:51:15,933 --> 01:51:19,492 Speaker 6: often rung up the local council about the dogs that 2404 01:51:19,572 --> 01:51:21,772 Speaker 6: used to escape and roam the streets, and it just 2405 01:51:22,412 --> 01:51:25,612 Speaker 6: used to really frighten me with my old dogs. And anyway, 2406 01:51:25,652 --> 01:51:27,972 Speaker 6: sure enough, when this happened, I rang the council and 2407 01:51:28,053 --> 01:51:31,812 Speaker 6: again and complained about it again, and they were always 2408 01:51:31,893 --> 01:51:34,293 Speaker 6: but hesitant to go there because they said to me, 2409 01:51:34,612 --> 01:51:36,852 Speaker 6: quite honestly, one day they said, look, we've been told 2410 01:51:36,853 --> 01:51:39,053 Speaker 6: if we arrived on the property to take the dog 2411 01:51:39,093 --> 01:51:45,013 Speaker 6: that we'd be shot. So it was a really tricky situation. 2412 01:51:45,253 --> 01:51:49,093 Speaker 6: That went on and on, but I used to walk, 2413 01:51:49,213 --> 01:51:51,532 Speaker 6: you know, we walking around the neighborhood and a lot 2414 01:51:51,532 --> 01:51:54,732 Speaker 6: of schools around there and kids and whatnot. And remember 2415 01:51:54,732 --> 01:51:56,572 Speaker 6: one day it was roaming up and down the road. 2416 01:51:56,652 --> 01:51:59,173 Speaker 6: The owners had got obviously gone out and left the 2417 01:51:59,213 --> 01:52:02,852 Speaker 6: dog and it could escape. And I once again I 2418 01:52:02,933 --> 01:52:05,013 Speaker 6: rang the council and they sort of got there. But 2419 01:52:06,013 --> 01:52:10,692 Speaker 6: the sad thing was in the gang moved out, they 2420 01:52:10,812 --> 01:52:13,213 Speaker 6: sort of abandoned the dog for days. I think someone 2421 01:52:13,293 --> 01:52:15,333 Speaker 6: used to go around there a few days and feed it, 2422 01:52:15,612 --> 01:52:19,732 Speaker 6: but it was by itself and it managed to escape, 2423 01:52:19,772 --> 01:52:21,932 Speaker 6: and I remember it roaming up and down the street. 2424 01:52:21,973 --> 01:52:23,692 Speaker 6: And I was told by one of the neighbors that 2425 01:52:23,853 --> 01:52:25,932 Speaker 6: year that they've moved out, but they've left the dog. 2426 01:52:26,053 --> 01:52:30,772 Speaker 2: There was this the devil hound wandering up and down 2427 01:52:30,812 --> 01:52:31,173 Speaker 2: the street. 2428 01:52:31,772 --> 01:52:31,972 Speaker 12: Yeah. 2429 01:52:32,572 --> 01:52:33,932 Speaker 3: It is terrifying, yeah. 2430 01:52:34,372 --> 01:52:37,972 Speaker 6: Yes, And so I ended up going down and getting 2431 01:52:37,973 --> 01:52:41,093 Speaker 6: a tin of dog food in my car. I drove down, 2432 01:52:41,133 --> 01:52:43,253 Speaker 6: open the window and chucked out a hold of the 2433 01:52:43,333 --> 01:52:45,412 Speaker 6: dog foods for it, and it was really hungry.
