Speaker 1: Live for the Export Beer Garden Studio and brought to you,
Speaker 1: as always by Export Ultra the beer for here. This
Speaker 1: is the Agenda Podcast for Friday, the twenty fifth of October.
Speaker 2: The Agenda Podcast, the home of Sporting Nonsense and clap Trap,
Speaker 2: brought to you by Export a Vultra.
Speaker 1: He this morning, j Lane, We're coming to you from
Speaker 1: a top a bicycle with like a ice cream basket
Speaker 1: thing on the front of it, and it has parked
Speaker 1: behind the espresso machine at Gg's Cafe and Mount Monganui.
Speaker 3: Yep are on the corner of the Mount Manganui at
Speaker 3: Sisters and cop a female fashion store. Yes, so we're
Speaker 3: massively out of our depth and here, but definitely some
Speaker 3: gifts that might get us out of a bit of
Speaker 3: trouble after the last couple of days.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a lot, a lot of clothing coming into
Speaker 1: the store.
Speaker 4: We brought most of it in this morning.
Speaker 1: We actually had to pay our way by unloading a
Speaker 1: car full of dresses, shirts, all sorts.
Speaker 4: As we were carrying them in. You dropped one. I
Speaker 4: dropped about five.
Speaker 3: Yes, let's hope that they had and they looked very
Speaker 3: expensive silk numbers as well, which I think they were.
Speaker 4: It's a certain uh is it Ali Bengal? Is it
Speaker 4: bing or something?
Speaker 3: Any bing?
Speaker 4: Any being? Is it? So any female listeners would be
Speaker 4: rolling in there in their grade. You don't want to
Speaker 4: be dropping any band and they don't.
Speaker 3: Want to be dropping any bangs, but both maybe a
Speaker 3: coffee here and gigs and the mount. Of course we're
Speaker 3: in the Mount because we have been sent on a
Speaker 3: project to cover most of New Zealand looking for the
Speaker 3: best beer gardens.
Speaker 1: Yes, that's right, and you're going to I mean yesterday
Speaker 1: we're in the Coromandel. You're going to find them around
Speaker 1: the Mount Monganui area as well. Yep, no beer garden
Speaker 1: has such here at GGS. But I mean with this
Speaker 1: mobile bike that I'm sitting on. By the way, here's
Speaker 1: the bell. Most bokes and bikes and mobile, most bikes
Speaker 1: are mobile. But this you could put just about anything
Speaker 1: in this basket. You could convert this into a beer gun. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it is it. It's more than a basket.
Speaker 3: You Basically in front of you is about one meter
Speaker 3: by sixty centimeter by about one meter deep box painted
Speaker 3: green with a lid opening, lid on.
Speaker 4: The top like that sell ice creams out of us.
Speaker 4: You know that kind of thing.
Speaker 3: It doesn't look overly insulated that it's just plywood. No,
Speaker 3: but yeah, you look, you look, you've got quite good astride.
Speaker 1: That I will say this is one of the more
Speaker 1: uncomfortable things that we've ever said on while doing a podcast.
Speaker 1: Another pointless world first for the ACC How did we
Speaker 1: get here? Yesterday we were and we woke up in
Speaker 1: Fungo Mata did the podcast yesterday. Yeah, Paul Side at
Speaker 1: the part Pacific Resort YEP and funk Matar. Then we
Speaker 1: drove down the treacherous, perilous drive from there to todung It.
Speaker 1: Well we pulled into the Todunger Sports Fishing Clubs. So
Speaker 1: more really impressive fish on the.
Speaker 3: Wall fish species that have been hauled in, the black
Speaker 3: marlins they've got.
Speaker 4: They had a sign up on this side.
Speaker 1: It's the leaderboard, the hall of fame for the biggest
Speaker 1: fish that people have caught. Someone pulled up a fifty
Speaker 1: kilo kingfish.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's it was a world record that one back
Speaker 3: in the seventies. And then a kid had pulled in
Speaker 3: one hundred and eighty kg hammerhead.
Speaker 1: Like a shot because they had like senior, junior and
Speaker 1: then children's categories and yeah, a small childhood reeled in
Speaker 1: a hundred and I think it was one hundred and
Speaker 1: seventy something kilo hammerhead Shark, which would have been quite
Speaker 1: nineteen seventy seven, that was, so that would have been
Speaker 1: it would have been a real stir back then, full noise.
Speaker 3: So yeah.
Speaker 1: Then from there we made the trip beautiful drivers down
Speaker 1: the coast a little bit to the mud of t
Speaker 1: Tar Pub. Yes, I've never been in there, despite the
Speaker 1: fact that I've been past there a lot family living
Speaker 1: forne so first time pulling in there.
Speaker 4: Great spot absolutely probably.
Speaker 3: One of the best garden bars, with a view out
Speaker 3: over the history and into the dunes.
Speaker 4: Great locals, very hospitable.
Speaker 3: Yep Sidey gave us, gave us a ride, and Karen
Speaker 3: was there as well. One of the locals Vicky, but
Speaker 3: I gave you the nickname Sticky Vicky, which he didn't
Speaker 3: really like. I was astride of Harley with her on
Speaker 3: the front. He's a Pellian. You were riding, Yeah, I
Speaker 3: was riding Birch, but I was happy to ride Birch
Speaker 3: with Sticky Vicky on the back of that Harley. From
Speaker 3: out the front cools quite a stir, but that was
Speaker 3: what a place there is. The locals came out in
Speaker 3: their droves because apparently they put on the white board
Speaker 3: out the front our commentary collective here at one ish. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Well, we were just sort of hoping to sort of
Speaker 1: sneak in under the radar because you know, we're on
Speaker 1: the Bier Garden Tour Museum. We're trying to find the
Speaker 1: best places and you know you'll see these videos come
Speaker 1: out over summer.
Speaker 4: Ye give you a few pointers as to where to go.
Speaker 1: We weren't expecting a welcoming committee, and I actually think
Speaker 1: it turned some of the locals against us because when
Speaker 1: we showed up though, all right, then what do you
Speaker 1: what's this all about?
Speaker 3: The bet for it also said you're late. We're like,
Speaker 3: what didn't know we were? I didn't know we had
Speaker 3: a cool time. I didn't know you knew we were coming.
Speaker 3: I didn't know you knew who we were. Yeah, which
Speaker 3: was even more shocking. But great, they were very friendly.
Speaker 3: I loved it. The great got a great attitude there.
Speaker 1: We'd commanded the radio Hudaki utes. So that's what we've
Speaker 1: taken because our you we just didn't trust it.
Speaker 3: Well that and we don't want to do any damage
Speaker 3: before we sell it. Oh yeah, before it goes.
Speaker 1: On auction next if we if we got side swiped
Speaker 1: in that day, a week before we sold it, which
Speaker 1: wouldn't be able.
Speaker 4: To forgive ourselves.
Speaker 1: And so I was talking to some of the locals
Speaker 1: there and they were saying they remember when Radio Hawky
Speaker 1: was still on the boat. Yeah, because it was that
Speaker 1: or what Radio New Zealand or something like that.
Speaker 4: It was it was only state broadcasters.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's I mean, that's the origins of hardaki
Speaker 3: is they went offshore and played rock music. Yes, that's right,
Speaker 3: the Devil's music.
Speaker 1: They said there was it was either that, but if
Speaker 1: you wanted to listen to archers, have you heard of
Speaker 1: this so Archers? The Archers or something like that? They
Speaker 1: said it was basically like Emmadale but on the radio it.
Speaker 3: Was like.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, and that just.
Speaker 1: Played out on talkbak radio and they were like, it
Speaker 1: was basically that or radio.
Speaker 4: So it was a pretty easy decision for them. But
Speaker 4: a corn hole as well.
Speaker 1: Great service they've got there, the girls behind the bar
Speaker 1: if you've had you know, because there's obviously it's a
Speaker 1: great spot to go. If you're, you know, on a
Speaker 1: motorbike ride, go riding up and down the coast, pull
Speaker 1: into this pub. If you end up having a bear
Speaker 1: or two and you feel like you probably shouldn't be
Speaker 1: driving anymore, they'll park your bikes for it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they'll pack because they've got the lockerble beer garden.
Speaker 3: It's big gates and stuff, so they just drive your
Speaker 3: bike and lock it up for you and put you
Speaker 3: for the night.
Speaker 4: But yeah, it's one of the best services.
Speaker 3: It's there the best of us. They wear the best
Speaker 3: of us out there at Meta Tak gigs, gigs all
Speaker 3: the time.
Speaker 1: They've got they've got a quiz night, first Tuesday of
Speaker 1: every night.
Speaker 4: Watch out for the Numpties. Who's the team there.
Speaker 3: Raining bottom dwellers.
Speaker 1: Yes, the perennial losers of the of the thing. I
Speaker 1: think Numpties was the name that was earned, not given.
Speaker 1: And so the Numpties are down there and if you
Speaker 1: want to go and see them at the Mater Tar
Speaker 1: pub every second first Tuesday of every month.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I must have met. We've It's been very
Speaker 3: quiz focused this trip because obviously we had a there
Speaker 3: was another pub quiz at the Smoky Palette and fung
Speaker 3: Maitar which we hijacked and then walked straight into the
Speaker 3: Matitzar quiz Chat.
Speaker 4: As soon as we walked in, we got it was
Speaker 4: quiz Chat, walked.
Speaker 1: Into the Numpties and then yeah, so then we made
Speaker 1: our way back to Total on it.
Speaker 4: We popped into Bruco.
Speaker 1: Yep, great little set up and there they got the
Speaker 1: dart board, they've got the pool tables set up.
Speaker 3: Yep.
Speaker 4: Vibey little bar. I feel like I have memories of
Speaker 4: being there before we stuff there.
Speaker 3: Yeah, before the Black Clash last year. We had a
Speaker 3: bit of a shin dig in there and it was
Speaker 3: packed out and there that's a good little place. Gotta
Speaker 3: love the mount and everyone's so everyone's so good looking.
Speaker 4: Well, it's the spiritual home of the Smoke Show. Yeah,
Speaker 4: it is plenty.
Speaker 1: Did I hear that the Auckland team are now playing
Speaker 1: down here, Yes, well.
Speaker 3: The cricket team they're based here for the next few
Speaker 3: weeks because Travis Scott has taken over each part.
Speaker 4: That's what it is.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so you can see where the priorities lie when
Speaker 3: it comes to Eden Park and now they're allowed concerts.
Speaker 3: They're like, see you, We're going to have forty thousand
Speaker 3: Travis Scott fans.
Speaker 1: Well, they would have looked at the Auckland you know
Speaker 1: the ACES schedule and be right, how many people a
Speaker 1: shout up to your games?
Speaker 3: But to be fair, if you were in the Auckland Aces,
Speaker 3: would you rather be based in the beautiful plenty at
Speaker 3: Mount mong and Nui or Auckland?
Speaker 4: No, one hundred percent.
Speaker 1: We've been saying that since we got down here, we
Speaker 1: need to move the sec to the mount.
Speaker 3: I think everyone needs to come to the mount, but
Speaker 3: I think that's half the problem. Traffic is horrendous. I
Speaker 3: don't think it's quite built for the amount of people,
Speaker 3: but it's it's pretty much summer here.
Speaker 4: It is the use today. There were people walking around
Speaker 4: in bikinis.
Speaker 3: There was several guys outside of outside of Master Kom
Speaker 3: Master Kong just no shirts on, just boardies, shirtless. Geez.
Speaker 1: The parts of the country wouldn't be wouldn't be able
Speaker 1: to believe that. From where we were sitting, we could
Speaker 1: also see into a fast food franchise where they were
Speaker 1: two teenagers shirtless play fighting.
Speaker 4: But yeah they were kind of doing what's that?
Speaker 3: What's that?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's the one. The slow motion kind
Speaker 3: of punches. Yeah, yeah, it was. And they weren't eating
Speaker 3: any of the any of the products in the fast
Speaker 3: food restaurant. It was just loitering. And I did ask question,
Speaker 3: why weren't they at school? That's we're with the appearance, Maniah.
Speaker 3: I thought for sure it was a real fight.
Speaker 1: Anytime you see dude shirtless at a fast food franchise and
Speaker 1: the scrap and it's like, that's that's for real. But no,
Speaker 1: but yeah, you're right, The Mount just spiritual home of
Speaker 1: the Smoke Show. I've become acutely aware of how good
Speaker 1: looking I'm not when I'm when I'm here, I'm not beachy.
Speaker 1: I'm not a beachy guy.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 1: You see people the year and they look like they
Speaker 1: couldn't give a shit. It's just not me.
Speaker 3: Can we just bring up something last night Game of
Speaker 3: two Halves? Your your team, you had your dear friend
Speaker 3: Dan Hooker, yes, on the on the your your team,
Speaker 3: and you had Dame Susan du vois on your team
Speaker 3: as well, who did take on the kind of mother
Speaker 3: hen roll.
Speaker 4: But very and it very very disappointed in.
Speaker 3: Your your both yourself and Dan Hooker's intelligence.
Speaker 1: Yes, I know, and I was like, well, usually I'm
Speaker 1: the one answering all of the questions for my team,
Speaker 1: but for some reason in that in that game and
Speaker 1: actually to pull you behind the curtain. Dan Hooker his
Speaker 1: we found out at the end of the show that
Speaker 1: his buzzer wasn't connected and the reason we didn't figure
Speaker 1: it out is because he didn't push it.
Speaker 3: I think, so okay, Dame Susan Devoi was right and
Speaker 3: describing you both as dumb and dumb.
Speaker 1: She pointed us out, so at least he got dumber
Speaker 1: till the head knocks, I suppose.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: It was disappointing because we looked Across and Hayden Padden,
Speaker 1: Gustave and Sam Winders and I was looking at them.
Speaker 1: I was like, they're not going to beat us in
Speaker 1: a quiz, and poor Dame Susan she was. She had
Speaker 1: a Hall of Fame performance. She guessed one of the
Speaker 1: questions straight off the first clue, which was a birthday
Speaker 1: and a middle name.
Speaker 4: It was kind of McGregor because she'd google Dan hook.
Speaker 3: It and saying, oh, because you wanted to. I mean, look,
Speaker 3: how mack good that that is a veteran, that's a
Speaker 3: veteran of sports and I would say even broadcasting. She's
Speaker 3: done her homework, so she's searched. I mean, god knows
Speaker 3: what she would have found out about you if she'd
Speaker 3: search my nice Stuart. Yeah, no, I think nothing came up.
Speaker 1: And she was like, what, I think the charges have
Speaker 1: been suppressed, but that she subject But no, yeah I did.
Speaker 1: I did feel bad for she was a very competitive person.
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, there's the reason why she is a multiple
Speaker 3: world champion, former.
Speaker 4: Race relations minister as well minister.
Speaker 3: Or conciliators, which is more a role where you put
Speaker 3: press releases out and I don't think that should happen. Yeah,
Speaker 3: stuff like that.
Speaker 1: Well, she'd sit our relations back considerably by calling me dumb.
Speaker 3: Well, I've got a bit of a past with Susan
Speaker 3: Devoy and her wider family. Yeah, her her nieces and
Speaker 3: nephews just to live over our back fence and Hamilton
Speaker 3: Simon de Voy. Huge controversy one summer when we found
Speaker 3: the boy's cat floating in our pool and I hated that.
Speaker 3: We hated that cat because it used to come over
Speaker 3: and cause all sorts of have it and but it
Speaker 3: had just accidentally fallen in our pool and drowned. However,
Speaker 3: there were accusations of potential foul play to do with
Speaker 3: the cat because we biffed it back over the fence
Speaker 3: because we don't want to deal with the body. And
Speaker 3: to this day, when I bump into Simon, you know,
Speaker 3: he's a he's a father of two, he's you know,
Speaker 3: he's every time I see him in a social occasions,
Speaker 3: he goes, I still reckon, you kill my cat. So
Speaker 3: killed Simon Devoi, Like I promise you we didn't kill
Speaker 3: your cat. Okay, we may not have had steers in
Speaker 3: our pool, and the fact our pool wasn't even it
Speaker 3: was an above ground concrete.
Speaker 4: Pool, so that cat had So that cat.
Speaker 3: Was dicing with danger when it jumped onto the side
Speaker 3: and was patrolling around the pool like it used to
Speaker 3: and slipped down. There were no stairs, which we got
Speaker 3: the accusation one even you've got stairs in your pool if.
Speaker 4: You're going to put steers in your pool just in
Speaker 4: case the neighbor's cat jumps.
Speaker 3: Yeah, So the cat the cat controversy that would away
Speaker 3: for years over the back fence, with the divorce still unresolved,
Speaker 3: still unresolved. They never used to return any of our
Speaker 3: balls that went over there. I think out of spite. Yeah,
Speaker 3: hundreds of hundreds of tennis balls and Kubi cricket balls.
Speaker 3: You sneened up over there.
Speaker 4: Maybe by association, that's why I was on the back foot.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think so. I think she would have searched
Speaker 3: acc she would have seen a lane on their lane
Speaker 3: that sounds familiar, would have rung around and goes, why
Speaker 3: is this familiar? Fucker killed my cat?
Speaker 4: Yeah, and this went good, good, Okay. I was done.
Speaker 4: A member of the SEC present there, so I copped
Speaker 4: all of the yeah you dad, sorry about this is why?
Speaker 1: Okay, well that's why our bloody team fell apart, despite
Speaker 1: the fact that she just about single handedly won the
Speaker 1: cause for us. I haven't seen the episode last night
Speaker 1: because we were parked up watching the cricket. So let's
Speaker 1: take a quick break and we'll come back and talk
Speaker 1: about the cricket. So stumps at day one and New
Speaker 1: Zealand finished two and fifty nine.
Speaker 3: We got rolled. The last seven wickets went for about
Speaker 3: fifty one, which, having a look at Washington Sunday, he
Speaker 3: got seven wickets. Rabbi Ashman got the other three. Now
Speaker 3: we were watching that, we put an inflammatory post up
Speaker 3: on social media around Wood the Indians produce a dust bowl.
Speaker 3: They took the bait, We chummed up the burly. The
Speaker 3: Indian fans came running and what do you know after
Speaker 3: forty five minutes of day one, that one ball that
Speaker 3: turns square, Oh my god, And it was like, oh oh, there.
Speaker 1: Were there were ones pitching outside off and then going
Speaker 1: way down league. Yeah, and they weren't even appealing them. Well,
Speaker 1: they were appealing them because they fucking appeal everything. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but they weren't reviewing them because they knew how much
Speaker 1: that thing was turning.
Speaker 3: That one delivery that we saw before, I think before
Speaker 3: the lunch break where it was outside leg and they
Speaker 3: replayed it during the break and it was almost the
Speaker 3: perfect delivery because it was outside leg. It turned and
Speaker 3: it was clipping the top of off stumps and it
Speaker 3: was like, how do you play that? So they didn't
Speaker 3: review it. I'd take two five to nine. Yeah, I'd
Speaker 3: take two five nine because that's runs on the board.
Speaker 3: India have lost an early wik It clean bold row.
Speaker 3: It's been clean bowled by Saudi. But now we're going
Speaker 3: to have to Ajs Pateel is going to have to
Speaker 3: play out of his skin, as is glean Phillips as
Speaker 3: is Ravishion Retravendra as a Satna because that pitch. You
Speaker 3: don't want to be betting last on that pitch, and
Speaker 3: India will be betting last. So we need those four
Speaker 3: bowlers to play out of their skins because I really
Speaker 3: want this to backfire. They did it against Australia and
Speaker 3: massively backfired and they lost on the worst pitch potentially
Speaker 3: ever produced for a Test match that lasted like two
Speaker 3: and a half days. So I really wanted to backfire.
Speaker 3: I want us to take this series out what away,
Speaker 3: What a week of sport that would.
Speaker 4: Be to India.
Speaker 1: In India, that'll be outrageous. You're right two fifty nine
Speaker 1: when you look at the way that pitch was at
Speaker 1: the end of the day. But the annoying part was
Speaker 1: I feel like we were like one ninety for like three.
Speaker 3: We were two hundred for three. Yeah, because Revenger looked good,
Speaker 3: so did Conway, and they they got they got undone
Speaker 3: by some well. Conway's shot was probably not to do
Speaker 3: with the delivery, but Revengers was. It was an absolute
Speaker 3: beauty that bold him Washington Sunda. He looked good, he
Speaker 3: looked real good and he's the successor for Ravi Ashwin.
Speaker 3: He's not as punishing as Ravishwan, which is quite a relief.
Speaker 1: I need to retract something I said on the podcast yesterday.
Speaker 1: I said that raby Ashwin looked like the middle manager
Speaker 1: who plays cricket on the weekend. He showed up with
Speaker 1: the tightest fade you've ever seen in your life this
Speaker 1: game and he looks ridiculous. Now it does not suit
Speaker 1: him at all, and he no longer looks like the
Speaker 1: middle manager who bowls part time spin.
Speaker 4: He just I don't know what.
Speaker 1: It looks like a geezer now, yeah, yeah he does.
Speaker 1: It looks like tant So he had day two. And
Speaker 1: by the way, we had a great night watching the
Speaker 1: cricket last night. This is something that the first time
Speaker 1: I ever listened to the ACC. This is what my
Speaker 1: men and my friends were doing. We were betting over
Speaker 1: over yeah, so they'll sit it. It's very confusing because
Speaker 1: they said it over under, say two and a half runs,
Speaker 1: yes for the for the next over and then that's
Speaker 1: a great way to spice up a tedious Test match.
Speaker 4: And so we were doing that all night last night.
Speaker 1: Hits why we never got to see the game of
Speaker 1: two halves because we were too financially invested.
Speaker 4: Totally in unders and overs, unders and overs.
Speaker 3: It's funny when you're in a group dynamic, do you
Speaker 3: all go for the one bit and celebrate together or
Speaker 3: do you do a spike bet? Because there was four
Speaker 3: of us punting, and I think majority we all punted
Speaker 3: the same thing, so we could root for the same thing.
Speaker 3: But then occasionally someone would go, now I'm going under yeah,
Speaker 3: and then they'd be like a piece of crap and
Speaker 3: Nu'd win and a little bit of a little bit
Speaker 3: of niggles.
Speaker 1: Because the last so say you've gone two and a
Speaker 1: half fronts, they're on two one ball to cut. Yes,
Speaker 1: one of year has gone over one. He has gone under.
Speaker 1: The tension in the room, it's just for an otherwise
Speaker 1: meaningless over.
Speaker 3: Yes. And there was one one particular over A four
Speaker 3: was hit off the last ball and that was just divided.
Speaker 1: The room cooked me. That was the end of my
Speaker 1: my punting. I also got on Revenger to be the
Speaker 1: top scorer. I think we all did. Yeah, we did.
Speaker 4: It was six dollars fifty to be the top scorer.
Speaker 4: He wasn't far off either.
Speaker 1: No, he scored about sixty five and I think Conway
Speaker 1: got seventy six.
Speaker 3: Yes, so we went far off.
Speaker 1: Yeah, not too bad. Ajes Ptel got three overs in
Speaker 1: last night. I see and Sat they've got a couple
Speaker 1: as well. A maiden for Ages as well. He'll be
Speaker 1: looking his lips this morning when he's waking up anything.
Speaker 3: I mean, you could probably hopefully the b yc are
Speaker 3: back next week. I think they're all on holiday at
Speaker 3: the moment, but they would have some insights into that
Speaker 3: because I feel like the Indian spinners they're just a
Speaker 3: bit quicker.
Speaker 4: He saw Ravi Ashwin.
Speaker 3: He bowled a couple over one hundred klimeters an hour
Speaker 3: and you get that bounce, and I'm not sure that
Speaker 3: we've got that with our spinners because you've got Phillips.
Speaker 3: He's about the same height as Ages, and they kind
Speaker 3: of always rely on flight rather than just a bit
Speaker 3: of pace. I don't know that's a real bouncy sort
Speaker 3: of bowler. That's coming from a person who knows fuck
Speaker 3: all about spinning. So but just from the look of it,
Speaker 3: it just they seem that I've got a bit more
Speaker 3: control of the pace of it, and there's probably that
Speaker 3: for us though yeah, I'd say so, but he just
Speaker 3: doesn't turn it as much as the.
Speaker 1: Likes of ages. That's the thing that kills me well
Speaker 1: in their dudes. So like Ashwan's turning it a mile
Speaker 1: and you're like what Jadasia.
Speaker 3: Yeah, the whole thing. And they've got they do have.
Speaker 3: Their batsmen are the best players I've spent in the world.
Speaker 3: So that's why our spinners are going to have to
Speaker 3: play out of their absolute skins, yeah, to win this,
Speaker 3: but it's possible. It's possible. We've we've rattled them early row,
Speaker 3: it's gone stuck on that, the skipper is gone.
Speaker 1: Anything could happen. And it kicks off again at five
Speaker 1: o'clock on a Friday night.
Speaker 4: Ah, don't worry about it.
Speaker 3: What a week in though. But because you've got that,
Speaker 3: and then you've got the NPC Final three o'clock Saturday,
Speaker 3: leading into All Blacks versus Japan at seven o'clock next day,
Speaker 3: you've got the Kiwi Ferns versus the jill arrus at three.
Speaker 4: Do you know what a jilla rus female kangaroo.
Speaker 3: No, it's a name of a novice female ranch worker
Speaker 3: who looks on cattle and sheep ranches.
Speaker 4: A novice.
Speaker 3: Yeah, So I was like, I don't think their league
Speaker 3: team should be called the Jiller Rue or is it
Speaker 3: named after a famous female rugby the player called Jill
Speaker 3: called Jill? Yeah, I looked it up. So what is
Speaker 3: it chill? Is it an animal.
Speaker 4: Female novice on a kettle station or sheep station?
Speaker 3: H there you go. So that's on and out in
Speaker 3: christ Church and I think they could tee off at
Speaker 3: like six o'clock. Is the kiwis versus the kangaroos down
Speaker 3: there at Apollo.
Speaker 4: Which is a novice male sheep station worker?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, So it's a big weekend and then you've
Speaker 3: got the cricket does bubbling along in the background.
Speaker 4: It's huge.
Speaker 3: So if you're not multi screening both Saturday and Sunday night,
Speaker 3: then you did to me, Yeah.
Speaker 4: You're out of your mind.
Speaker 1: We're going to have Carl Tyley back on from the
Speaker 1: TB for the a SEC Sports Book later on today
Speaker 1: as well, so make sure that you check that out
Speaker 1: on the same feed. But you mentioned the All Black
Speaker 1: Star playing. I mean, first of all, what time is it.
Speaker 1: It's like stupid o'clock in the morning, is it.
Speaker 4: No, No, it's at seven o'clock.
Speaker 3: Tomorrow night. The Yeah, they played day games over in Japan,
Speaker 3: so it's an afternoon game in Japan, which means it's perfect,
Speaker 3: it's like prime time. But there's a little bit controversy
Speaker 3: bubbling around around New Zealand Rugby Union. They're the New
Speaker 3: Zealand Rugby commercial Remember the division they set up to
Speaker 3: make money to.
Speaker 4: Serve as silver ac Oh.
Speaker 3: Yes, well the new CEO for that has left and
Speaker 3: under a year he's gone. And there's about seventy in
Speaker 3: zied ass staff and players in Japan and we're headed
Speaker 3: to Europe right now. And no one really is no representative,
Speaker 3: no senior representat from Zeon Rugby is going to be
Speaker 3: attending the NPC, which is you have to say, is
Speaker 3: you know it's a bit of a get out of
Speaker 3: their own way. I know. So of course India, I
Speaker 3: mean India Japan is a very lucrative market for New
Speaker 3: Zealand rugby and the Blacks. Sure, I understand that, but
Speaker 3: it just shows the priorities, doesn't that when they optics, Yeah,
Speaker 3: the Optics have sent over a whole lot of content
Speaker 3: creators as well for this northern to Yeah, so it's
Speaker 3: we not get the bloody Wow, not the kind of
Speaker 3: content we create. I think what they don't want someone
Speaker 3: sitting on a novelty bike with a basket that you
Speaker 3: can sell ice creams out of recording a half past
Speaker 3: podcast over there. Well look, I mean if I was
Speaker 3: the decision maker, be very different. Also, copy a lot
Speaker 3: of criticism. We haven't commentated anything for about a month
Speaker 3: and there's a reason for that. Most of the team
Speaker 3: are in off season training because I don't know if
Speaker 3: any of you know, but Brian Waddell sets up off
Speaker 3: season training camp down in the Lower Hut at his house.
Speaker 3: Jason Hoyd is there. I think he's come back. He's
Speaker 3: just come back recently. Actually, Jeremy Wells is heeded there.
Speaker 3: So we take turns of going down and getting a
Speaker 3: refresher building up for the summer of cricket which is
Speaker 3: coming up.
Speaker 4: It's almost five weeks time.
Speaker 3: England are here for three tests and we've got we're
Speaker 3: commentating all those tests live and free on iHeartRadio. So
Speaker 3: and it's a big summer of cricket for us. So
Speaker 3: that's what we're preparing for. Just letting these these kind
Speaker 3: of Northern Tour games and Kiwis games just you know
Speaker 3: slide under the radar for a bit.
Speaker 4: Well it also they also snuck up on us. I
Speaker 4: had no idea that we were looking.
Speaker 1: We were really circling November October is all right, suber
Speaker 1: rugby for yeah.
Speaker 4: Else, First, cricket hasn't started yet.
Speaker 3: He's pump the brakes.
Speaker 1: This is our one chance because we do not see
Speaker 1: our families over summer.
Speaker 4: So we were like, this is our one chance.
Speaker 1: Then we shut ourselves in the football, going on the
Speaker 1: road on the export of Trivia Garden tour of So
Speaker 1: it's so true.
Speaker 3: It's so true. That's just supposed to be a time
Speaker 3: we were both to be repairing our personal lives. Yeah, massively.
Speaker 3: You talk about the n PC final. We had bread
Speaker 3: Shields on on Wednesday. I think that was man.
Speaker 1: He he was saying it wasn't aware of the curse
Speaker 1: that may or may not exists around this podcast. He
Speaker 1: does now, but he said if if they lose, he said,
Speaker 1: knock on wood, they don't, but if they lose, he
Speaker 1: wants to come back on on Tuesday to give us
Speaker 1: a real dressing down.
Speaker 3: So I don't want to dressing down from bread Shields.
Speaker 3: He's terrifying.
Speaker 1: We're going to take our medicine. I think if we
Speaker 1: it doesn't doesn't come off. Bread Shields has got every
Speaker 1: right to come on and were the hot favorites as
Speaker 1: bad plenty. Like I said, I love the Steamers.
Speaker 3: We're in. We're in them and.
Speaker 4: They love their footy down here too with the Steamers.
Speaker 3: So my as I said on Hadeki this morning when
Speaker 3: I did my sports update, my heart is with the Steamers,
Speaker 3: but my head says Wellington are too strong. You kept
Speaker 3: him by fair and path dupless care fee they've got,
Speaker 3: They've got a great backline, so I don't know. I
Speaker 3: think they'll take it out. But there's a good there's
Speaker 3: a good power play on ta B which I've jumped on,
Speaker 3: and that is they want to prehipt the sports book.
Speaker 3: But any hooker from either side so his first second
Speaker 3: or third try scorer and either team went by one
Speaker 3: to twelve paying four bucks. So I think any hooker
Speaker 3: what any hooker first second or third try scorer, because
Speaker 3: you if you look at this game, I mean that's
Speaker 3: a final. Yes, human centerpede is going to come and
Speaker 3: there's going to be initially you want to get on
Speaker 3: the board early and a chance to form the human
Speaker 3: centerpede from a five minute line out and flop over
Speaker 3: is too strong. So I think that's a I think
Speaker 3: it's a good punt. I'm in and on that one.
Speaker 1: Well, we have a a gender hunch to chuck on
Speaker 1: this week, and this week we're going vibe. We're going
Speaker 1: massive vibe, Bunt Wellington dwin and anytime try scorer.
Speaker 3: Chi that's good because if this comes off, then we
Speaker 3: can you know, we can tell him not only is
Speaker 3: the curse broken, but you made us a lot of money.
Speaker 1: This is a bit of this is a bit of
Speaker 1: insurance policy for ourselves.
Speaker 4: Exifally backfire, they lose, we lose our money. Yeah, this
Speaker 4: happened to me with South Canbridge just a few weeks ago.
Speaker 3: So when he's dreaming us, when he's giving us a
Speaker 3: dressing down on Tuesday about the curse, we can also
Speaker 3: fire back you've lost us money.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's right. So we're even, We're actually square.
Speaker 1: If you don't mind, mate, Let's take one more quick
Speaker 1: break and we'll come back and wrap this thing up.
Speaker 1: He's the last piece of sport to discuss. As the
Speaker 1: key Wei's playing the kangaroos. As I mentioned before, and
Speaker 1: I think that we I was saying this the other day.
Speaker 1: I can't remember. Problem maybe on this podcast. I think
Speaker 1: we're too different, differential to Australia. We sort of still
Speaker 1: see ourselves as the underdogs against the Australians.
Speaker 4: I don't think we are surprisingly. I think the fans
Speaker 4: might think that.
Speaker 3: I think fans and media, but I think the players
Speaker 3: know that after they thump them, what thirty six nil? Yeah,
Speaker 3: last year. I think for the players, they play against
Speaker 3: these guys and with these guys they know every week,
Speaker 3: so they know how good they they know how good
Speaker 3: they are, and playing at home.
Speaker 1: It's a perception issue because the Australian media just as
Speaker 1: their dudes up so much hard. It's the reason why
Speaker 1: I've always had James Tedesco, and it's not because he's
Speaker 1: not a good player. It's because they always go up
Speaker 1: when gone about how incredibly is he's the greatest player
Speaker 1: of all time? In all those years when Roger was
Speaker 1: playing fullback for the Warriors and I'm like, Roger is
Speaker 1: better than Tedesco. Yeah, They're like, he's just hands down
Speaker 1: better than Todesska. But they talk about him as as
Speaker 1: if he's the greatest player of all time, and I
Speaker 1: think that seeps into our psyche as as Kiwi fans.
Speaker 1: We're like, yeah, oh yeah, they are all way better
Speaker 1: than us. They play Origin and they blah blah blah
Speaker 1: blah blah the fucking not nah they I mean they
Speaker 1: only just farted over Tongo, but Tong are a good team.
Speaker 3: But I love I love the Kiwi Test matches, particular
Speaker 3: against Aussies because I find the harker at the start.
Speaker 3: I find it's the last best you have. A fight
Speaker 3: could break out at there because the All Blacks have.
Speaker 3: It's turned into a bit of a show for the
Speaker 3: All Blacks. The other team has to be like twenty
Speaker 3: meters from them. Yeah, they're miked out, they're in a
Speaker 3: flying v. It's cool, like it's great drama. But I
Speaker 3: find when the Kiwis it's a bit looser. They charge
Speaker 3: it the other team, They get up into these schnozzles.
Speaker 3: I think, I think, yeah, I love it. I'm just
Speaker 3: like fuck yeah, and that you like that part of it.
Speaker 3: For me, I'm like, this is the fucking difference between
Speaker 3: rugby and league and the fact that they are fucking
Speaker 3: up for.
Speaker 1: It and you need that, you need that, like ship.
Speaker 1: This actually could hop off. Yeah, I love, I don't know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's it's the best. There's a you know, I was
Speaker 1: going to mention something that you listened to a lot
Speaker 1: of trouble. I'm not going to do. I'm making a
Speaker 1: business soon here.
Speaker 3: But anyway, that's some unlike you.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Anyway, So yeah, I think the Kiwi's I'm fairly certain
Speaker 1: they're gonna win. I didn't think that the Kangaroos look
Speaker 1: outstanding against Tonga the other week. And then also, like
Speaker 1: you say, home game sold out, Apollo sold out a pollow,
Speaker 1: and I do think it means more to the Kiwis
Speaker 1: playing at home as well, because they spend most of them,
Speaker 1: I mean, most of these dudes live in Australia.
Speaker 4: They all sound like Dingo's, they all.
Speaker 1: Sound like Dingers. When Phoenix Crossland, where did they find
Speaker 1: his burst? And to forget to get him back into
Speaker 1: the Kiwis squad, I had no idea he was a Kiwi.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I know, but I think that a lot
Speaker 1: of those dudes they feel displaced, and so when they
Speaker 1: come back and they put the Kiwis jersey on, it
Speaker 1: actually means something to them. I don't I think this
Speaker 1: is like an All Star game to a lot of
Speaker 1: those Australian Yeah, it's state of origin is their big
Speaker 1: thing where they fire up. But when they put that
Speaker 1: Assie jersey on it, I think it's more of like
Speaker 1: an honor to have the jersey than it is to
Speaker 1: actually play for your country, whereas the Kiwis are like,
Speaker 1: fucking let's go, yeah and bring on chance to be Kiwi.
Speaker 4: I've been living a fucking you know, Bondi for the
Speaker 4: last time.
Speaker 3: I think we're being waterboarded by dingos. Yeah, just having
Speaker 3: a crack at me.
Speaker 4: Get me home. So yeah, I'm looking forward to watching
Speaker 4: that as well.
