1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:04,680 Speaker 1: TV Gruntsbet Bak morning okay, Luke black Caps, all Class, 2 00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:07,880 Speaker 1: Vanella and Tim Seifert. What a sensational knock. 3 00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:13,039 Speaker 2: Yeah. Look, I didn't get up overnight obviously, horrible time really, 4 00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:15,600 Speaker 2: but I'm actually just sitting here watching the replay now 5 00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:18,079 Speaker 2: in South Africa at batting. But I did hear the 6 00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:21,079 Speaker 2: overall result and you know we were restricted them well. 7 00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:24,439 Speaker 2: But the real talking point obviously is the batting of 8 00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:31,520 Speaker 2: Tim Seiford and young Allen Gee was to smash a hundred, 9 00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:34,800 Speaker 2: the fastest hundred in the history of the competition in 10 00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:39,160 Speaker 2: a semi final is quite remarkable really, and he's probably 11 00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:44,440 Speaker 2: the most dangerous one day batsman around and I'm looking 12 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:46,040 Speaker 2: forward to watching it, to be honest with you. And 13 00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:49,000 Speaker 2: then of course we await to see who we play 14 00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:52,920 Speaker 2: India against England. Don't know, don't care. Really, we're in 15 00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:53,400 Speaker 2: the final. 16 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:56,440 Speaker 1: Firing when it counts. Yeah, there's not too many perks 17 00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:58,720 Speaker 1: of a three point thirty alarm in this job, but 18 00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:01,000 Speaker 1: when there's international sport and I get to witness something 19 00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 1: like that, you know, just just endless boundaries and sexes 20 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:08,360 Speaker 1: like when they were pumping them, they were firing into 21 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 1: the crowd, there just scenes that we haven't seen for while. 22 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:14,319 Speaker 1: It was almost like when you put dad in with 23 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 1: the kids for a game of backyard cricket over Christmas. 24 00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 1: South Africa just looked hapless considering that they were the favorites. 25 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:25,880 Speaker 1: They were the only unbeaten side in this tournament up 26 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:27,760 Speaker 1: to this point. Incredible. 27 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 2: Yeah. I think those of us who's followed sport generally, 28 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 2: and you know, we've taken a bit of a chaleling 29 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 2: from the spring box on the rugby field in recent times. 30 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:39,560 Speaker 2: It's nice to pay one back, isn't it. And they 31 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:41,840 Speaker 2: would have gone into this game as hot favorites, no 32 00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:44,840 Speaker 2: question about that. As you say, the only unbeaten team, 33 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 2: and we turn up. We've got a very good record 34 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 2: at these sort of tournaments, so we don't always kick 35 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 2: on to win, but we always cause upsets, and boy, 36 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 2: this is an upset and a half this one. 37 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 1: So you mentioned rugby to that, and the other big 38 00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 1: headline of the day was Dave Rennie all pick. 39 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 2: I was divided. Really. My hope was that the two 40 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 2: of them would get together and form a sort of 41 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 2: a super team of Jamie Joseph and Dave Rennie. But 42 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 2: I guess it was probably realistic, never going to work 43 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:19,679 Speaker 2: that way. So look, I'm happy. I'm happy because I've 44 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 2: known the bloke for a long time. He comes from 45 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 2: this part of the woods. I commentated when he played 46 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 2: for Wellington over fifty games, fifty eight games I think 47 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:31,079 Speaker 2: he played. Then I followed him and when he coached Wellington. 48 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:33,240 Speaker 2: Then he moved on to Munowa Tu, and then of 49 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,679 Speaker 2: course he moved on to the Chiefs, won a couple 50 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 2: of titles there, and then he moved overseas and he's 51 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 2: been over there for nine years, having been to Scotland 52 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 2: and also of course to Japan. So I'm thrilled for 53 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,640 Speaker 2: the bloke. He'll do a great job, there's no question 54 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 2: about that. And I think anyone who watched his interviews 55 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,800 Speaker 2: on Telly last night how calm and collected he is. 56 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 2: He's a humble bloke and he'll get the job done. 57 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 2: There's no quick about that. The real worry for me 58 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 2: is have we got the cattle to support it? And 59 00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 2: I'm not totally convinced on that one yet. But anyway, 60 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 2: fingers crossed, it's been a very interesting couple of days 61 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 2: talking pairing. 62 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 1: Do you think the facts that Jamie Joseph couldn't bring 63 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:18,239 Speaker 1: Tony Brown with them set them back. 64 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:22,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I do, Yeah, I do. I think probably if 65 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 2: he'd been able to fund up to the selection panel 66 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 2: and so I've got my old mate Tony Brown and 67 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 2: this is our record, that would have made a huge difference. 68 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 2: And I'd imagine in the interview process they both would 69 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 2: have been asked about coaches that would possibly go with them. 70 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 2: And we don't know at this stage who Renny's got 71 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 2: with him, but obviously it's reasonably impressive. Otherwise he may 72 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 2: not have got the job. 73 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 1: I know that Razor pushed this envelope and really hinted 74 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 1: at it yesterday that he'd like to see the availability 75 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 1: of international players. Mentioned Brodie Retellik's name. You think he'll 76 00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 1: be signing success there. 77 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 2: Well, I don't know. I don't know. We've been pretty 78 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 2: adamant that that's not the way we're going to operate, 79 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 2: and I've been quite supportive of that because I always 80 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 2: feel that you compromise your own domestic competitions if you 81 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 2: take from players from overseas. But I think in circumstances 82 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 2: like this, and you've got to remember that Rennie has 83 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 2: been working with Brady Rottalic for the last couple of 84 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 2: years at Kobe, so he knows exactly what he's getting 85 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 2: and to bring the odd bloke back on an environment 86 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 2: I wouldn't open the doors entirely. I think there needs 87 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 2: to be criteria, but it would be nice to see 88 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:35,480 Speaker 2: a quality player like Rittelic back, and certainly in the 89 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 2: leadership group and certainly on the field as well
