1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,679 Speaker 1: Jamie mckaye, Host of the Countries with US Elo Jamie. 2 00:00:03,279 --> 00:00:05,440 Speaker 2: Oh good A, Heather poor on Chrystopher Luxe and he's 3 00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:07,680 Speaker 2: out of the frying pan into the fire Air New 4 00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:11,400 Speaker 2: Zealand to Prime Minister, who's probably thinking a few weeks 5 00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:13,200 Speaker 2: ago it might be easier to go back to Air 6 00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:15,800 Speaker 2: New Zealand, but might have to rethink that one not 7 00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:16,560 Speaker 2: good numbers. 8 00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:19,000 Speaker 1: Well, I guess at least what's happening at Air New 9 00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:21,200 Speaker 1: Zealand makes him look good as a boss of Air 10 00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:23,000 Speaker 1: New Zealand, so you can take some heart from that 11 00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:25,040 Speaker 1: if you were her mind. Say, now, how do you 12 00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:27,600 Speaker 1: reckon that this war turn turns things good for US 13 00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:28,520 Speaker 1: as an exporting nation? 14 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:31,640 Speaker 2: Well it doesn't really, but I'm just posing a rhetorical 15 00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:35,519 Speaker 2: sort of question there, Heather, because we've got our excuse me, 16 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:39,639 Speaker 2: our fifth GDT auction of the year tonight, remembering that 17 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 2: the two in January two and February have been very positive. 18 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 2: So we've swung back from the disappointing end to twenty 19 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:49,080 Speaker 2: twenty five. And Mike McIntyre and my guy A Jarden, 20 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:51,200 Speaker 2: I'm quoting him, so I've got to give him some credit. 21 00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:55,320 Speaker 2: He says, they're looking for a reasonable gains again tonight, 22 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:58,160 Speaker 2: especially with skim milk, powder and butter, and he thinks 23 00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:01,800 Speaker 2: there's going to be some real scrambling with the processes 24 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:04,760 Speaker 2: around the world trying to work out how to deal 25 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 2: with orders that are going to be at best delayed 26 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:15,399 Speaker 2: or possibly canceled due to obviously shipping restraints around the world. 27 00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:18,199 Speaker 2: So he says a two to three percent lift would 28 00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 2: be a great outcome. And when you think commodity prices 29 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:24,760 Speaker 2: normally follow kind of economic sentiment, I think that would 30 00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:28,639 Speaker 2: be a great result. Swimming against the tide tonight, he's saying, 31 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,560 Speaker 2: a real savior. At this time of the year, New 32 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 2: Zealand volumes are dropping away in line with normal seasonal activity, 33 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:37,959 Speaker 2: even though there's plenty of grass around the country. You know, 34 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:40,559 Speaker 2: we are starting to slow the cows of well past 35 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,959 Speaker 2: peak production. So this season's looking pretty good, and the 36 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 2: futures for this season are currently sitting at nine dollars 37 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 2: seventy one, next season nine dollars fifty four, and the 38 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:55,720 Speaker 2: twenty eighth season are nine dollars. In one sense, those 39 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 2: are very very strong forward markets either. 40 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, totally now sharing big events about to start, have 41 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 1: you got a hot favorite here. 42 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 2: Well, we've got a hot favorite in the wall handling 43 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:09,080 Speaker 2: and that's Joel Henare. The tab has got him a 44 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,359 Speaker 2: hot favorite to win the big double, that's the Golden 45 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 2: Shares and the World Wool Handling Championships. Start it all 46 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 2: gets underway in Masterton tomorrow Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday. Your 47 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 2: producer Kevin told me he always used to get along 48 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 2: on Thursday night from Miss Golden Shares. I don't think 49 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 2: they have that anymore. That may no longer be politically palatable. 50 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:34,639 Speaker 2: Not that I'm judging Kevin at all. The heather so 51 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:38,799 Speaker 2: that gets underway tomorrow. Joel Henery is a hot favorite. 52 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:43,119 Speaker 2: Second favorite is former New Zealand Rep. And Cook Island's Rep. 53 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 2: Karen Herbert. She's represented New Zealand and wall Handling and 54 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 2: there are two members of the New Zealand team. Remembering 55 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:52,240 Speaker 2: they're not only competing for the Golden Shares at domestic competition, 56 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:55,360 Speaker 2: they're also competing for the World champs. So Marika Braddock 57 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 2: is third favorite for the Open wall Handling title at 58 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 2: seven dollars fifty. Interesting one for me is when it 59 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,639 Speaker 2: comes to the World Open Sharing Championships. So the twenty 60 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 2: fourteen winner Roland Smith. This is a blog who spends 61 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 2: most of his time driving tractors these days, and he's 62 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 2: had quite a few injury problems to get over. He's 63 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 2: a surprising, in my mind, clear favorite for the world 64 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 2: title at a dollar seventy five from his teammate Toer Henderson, 65 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 2: who's the hot sharer in New Zealand at the moment 66 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 2: three point fifty, and then the Scottish Kiwi he will 67 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:31,239 Speaker 2: be representing Scotland, Gavin Much as third at four dollars. 68 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 2: The rest of the field's quite a way back. And 69 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 2: I say surprising for Roland Smith because Tower Hendon is 70 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 2: Tower Henderson should I say is actually a favorite to 71 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 2: retain his Golden Shares title at three dollars fifty Leon 72 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:48,040 Speaker 2: Samuel's former winner a couple of years ago at four bucks, 73 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 2: and Gavin Much and Roland Smith at five dollars fifty each. 74 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 2: And I guess the logic there is Roland Smith hasn't 75 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 2: done as much sharing as the others. To win the 76 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 2: world title, he'll have to go through let's competitors. Fanny 77 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 2: Willoughy wants to win his nation's Golden Shares Open title. 78 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 1: Jamie thank you, Jamie mckaye, host of the Country. 79 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 2: For more from Heather Duplessy Allen Drive, listen live to 80 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 2: news talks.
