1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,279
Speaker 1: Final test of the Northern Tour for the All Black Sunday.

2
00:00:02,320 --> 00:00:06,279
Speaker 1: Of course, assuming Italy gets beaten, that will be ten victories,

3
00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:09,600
Speaker 1: four losses, ten four season All Blacks Captain Scott Barris

4
00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:13,399
Speaker 1: with Scott Barrett with us from Duran. Good morning, Mike,

5
00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:15,760
Speaker 1: going very well. Indeed take us through the week in

6
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:19,599
Speaker 1: terms of moving on from France and shifting your mindset

7
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:20,079
Speaker 1: to Italy.

8
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:23,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's you took of it to get over that game.

9
00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:27,880
Speaker 2: Still probably haven't to be honest. Yeah, sort of using

10
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:29,840
Speaker 2: that as a bit of fuel for this weekend, but

11
00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:34,640
Speaker 2: can't really change that result and it'll probably you know,

12
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 2: a bit of a people under the beach towel as Yeah,

13
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:42,120
Speaker 2: an old coach once said, when quite you know now

14
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,360
Speaker 2: the India Tours, as you'd like, what's.

15
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:47,559
Speaker 1: The rays of thinking? Much much is being made this

16
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,479
Speaker 1: morning of the quality of the side being named against Italy.

17
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:53,280
Speaker 1: What's the rays of thinking behind a full strength side?

18
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 2: I think you've got to give Italy credit. And you

19
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:01,160
Speaker 2: know we've headed up off on this tour and we've

20
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:05,760
Speaker 2: wanted to test our salves against the best, and you know,

21
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:08,480
Speaker 2: I guess we store a bit of manna in the

22
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:13,560
Speaker 2: Jersey and you know at times, you know, we haven't

23
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:18,040
Speaker 2: really done too well up here in previous tours and

24
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 2: at the World Cup, I guess, but yeah, I guess

25
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:24,240
Speaker 2: that's probably a bit of reasoning. Whay he sent the

26
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:26,200
Speaker 2: full cavalry out for Italy.

27
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 1: How has the build up if it has changed this week,

28
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 1: given we're at the end of the tour, there's a

29
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:35,000
Speaker 1: bit of fatigue. I'm assuming there's certainly some injuries. Does

30
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 1: it change dramatically or not? Yeah.

31
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 2: The experienced medicals and strengths and conditioning guys, you know,

32
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 2: like Gillie, they have the expertise and pull back on

33
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:48,400
Speaker 2: some stuff. It's you know, you're not going to get

34
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 2: any further this week. It's about getting the body right

35
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 2: for Saturday and ultimately putting the performance in for eighty

36
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 2: minutes that we can be proud of. Yeah.

37
00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 1: And how and how do you feel how you personally

38
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 1: can through the tour?

39
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm a little bit. Yeah, I sort of manage

40
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 2: a week this week. Your raises you know, just said

41
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 2: to me get your body right for Saturday, and you know,

42
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 2: set out of a few of the reps on training

43
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 2: just to you know, freshen up and really fill the

44
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 2: tank for the one last effort against Italy.

45
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:23,280
Speaker 1: Assuming it goes well ten to four for the season,

46
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 1: I would say that. I mean, that's not bad, is it.

47
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:32,760
Speaker 2: I guess I wouldn't say it's great. You know, this

48
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 2: team has high expectations and you know we come second

49
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 2: or pinish even third. I guess in the Rugby Championship

50
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 2: against South Africa and Italy losing to the sorry and

51
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:51,800
Speaker 2: Argentina losing to them, you know, I think him then

52
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 2: to the India tour, we had a focus on improving

53
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:58,920
Speaker 2: each game and I think we did that, Yeah, narrowly,

54
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:03,520
Speaker 2: narrowly into France that they're one hurt, and you know,

55
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,640
Speaker 2: I think that the team would be better for that.

56
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 2: There's a lot of young guys who have wore the

57
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 2: jersey for the first time and really stepped up, which

58
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 2: is pleasing to see and you know holds well for

59
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:15,120
Speaker 2: the future.

60
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 1: What about a couple of names. TJ comes off the bench.

61
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 1: I'm assuming he'll get some game time given it to

62
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 1: his last But what are the people like Sam Kine.

63
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:26,919
Speaker 1: It's a fair well presumably all you guys rally around them.

64
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, Sam and TJ are certainly given a lot to

65
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,799
Speaker 2: the all Black Jersey and the team over the past

66
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 2: few years, and I guess particularly Sam, you know, being

67
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 2: captain and it's great to have him and then around

68
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 2: the environment the last year and you know, he's been

69
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,880
Speaker 2: huge for this group and he's he's just a great

70
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 2: leader and a great man. So hopefully we can send

71
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 2: them off in the right manner through a good performance and.

72
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 1: What happens to the side, Scott, after that you're all

73
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 1: dispersing to Europe, your coming home.

74
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:05,160
Speaker 2: What happens there's Yeah, there's promotional activities at the end

75
00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 2: of the year. For one group. I think they're going

76
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 2: to Geneva for True to promos and then never undisperses

77
00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:16,599
Speaker 2: most head back to New Zealand. So yeah, I think

78
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 2: a few boys have been looking forward to much. Yeah,

79
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:24,240
Speaker 2: preserve break. There's a few ding dut bodies. But yeah,

80
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 2: hopefully we get through this game and you know that's

81
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,600
Speaker 2: eighty minute performance that we can hang a hat on

82
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:31,320
Speaker 2: and be proud of.

83
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,920
