1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:01,600 Speaker 1: No Grand Slam for us this year. Is the All 2 00:00:01,600 --> 00:00:03,840 Speaker 1: Blacks fellow to England? Of course I looked okay in 3 00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:06,920 Speaker 1: the first half, so no shortage of ankst and approbrium 4 00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:09,399 Speaker 1: on social media over the weekend if you follow that anyway. 5 00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:11,959 Speaker 1: So John Corwin finds himself this morning in Italy and 6 00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:15,120 Speaker 1: he's with us morning, how are you very well? 7 00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:15,440 Speaker 2: Indeed? 8 00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:20,840 Speaker 1: Exactly as far as defeats go. How bad was this one? Oh? 9 00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:23,319 Speaker 2: Pretty disappointing. I think for thirty minutes, as you just 10 00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:25,360 Speaker 2: mentioned that All Blacks were very, very good. I was 11 00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:28,000 Speaker 2: sitting in the stand thinking, we're all good here, but 12 00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:31,280 Speaker 2: the last ten minutes a couple of areas not kicking 13 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,599 Speaker 2: the ball out, not taking shot at goal, and then 14 00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:36,279 Speaker 2: the second half we just lost our way a bit. 15 00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:38,800 Speaker 2: So I think that the most concerning them, Mike is 16 00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 2: you know, we're seeing some brilliant rugby, but we're not 17 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,080 Speaker 2: consistent over the eighty minutes. So bit a soul searching 18 00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:45,560 Speaker 2: this morning. 19 00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:48,680 Speaker 1: Why would you not be consistent? What's gone wrong there? 20 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,879 Speaker 2: Yeah? I think that's what the team need to ask themselves, 21 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:55,080 Speaker 2: and the coaching stuff need to ask, why are we 22 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 2: playing so well for twenty minutes? And then you know, 23 00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 2: going off the bail and it seems to be consistent 24 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,400 Speaker 2: for the season so far. So you know, I said 25 00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 2: yesterday before the game, we'll have to play for eighty 26 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 2: minutes and play well for eighty minutes to beat the 27 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:11,680 Speaker 2: English side. And we played well for thirty and then 28 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 2: we were you know, good and patches in the second half, 29 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:17,120 Speaker 2: but England really dominated us and deserved to win. Not 30 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 2: to It's a lot of soul searching about why that's happening. 31 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 2: You know, why is that happening? What are the answers? 32 00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:23,760 Speaker 2: You know, and you're asking the right question and the 33 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:27,200 Speaker 2: answers I don't know. And I think that the coaches 34 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 2: will be asking those questions this morning. Why are we 35 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 2: losing our way? 36 00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 1: It Not to defend this in any way, shape or form, 37 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 1: but we sort of get super angsty about it. But England, 38 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:39,680 Speaker 1: we talked up, England were a good site. England were 39 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 1: to be watched and worried about. So we can't be 40 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:43,760 Speaker 1: shocked that they win, can we? 41 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 2: No, we can't. And I think that you know, they 42 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 2: would have had the respect for the opposition. But I 43 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 2: think it's just this inconsistency, make it's this this game 44 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 2: at the moment where you know, we saw it against 45 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 2: in the second half against South Africa that last twenty minutes. 46 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 2: You know, when have you seen a side that's up 47 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 2: seventeen points against like Scotland and not put forty on them. 48 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 2: So we're seeing stuff that you know, we're all a 49 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 2: little bit concerned about because we need to get back 50 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:14,640 Speaker 2: to playing for eighty minutes. You know, you see you 51 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 2: saw in the second half, you know the boys when 52 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:20,959 Speaker 2: when Boden went off sort of lost their way away. 53 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 2: But so you know there's plenty of plenty of stuff 54 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 2: to work on for this week that they'll be really 55 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:27,360 Speaker 2: disappointed in their performance for sure. 56 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:30,359 Speaker 1: You know the text you get does Raisin need sacking? 57 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,640 Speaker 1: It's all raises faults, It's Canterbury conspiracy. Raiser needs to go. 58 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:35,000 Speaker 1: What do you say? 59 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 2: You know, look, I think they'll do a massive review 60 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 2: on what the season has been like and I think 61 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 2: that you know, it's a lonely place being head coaching, 62 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 2: and you know they'll have to ask them some hard questions. 63 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 2: I'm hoping that they'll be asking a lot of hard 64 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 2: questions internally as well. So you know, I don't think 65 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 2: you get this job and you know, I'm pretty sure 66 00:02:56,760 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 2: if you asked, you know, Sir Graham and and so Steve, 67 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 2: like when you started the job, were you as good 68 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:06,920 Speaker 2: you know when you finished. No, So I think we 69 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:10,160 Speaker 2: you know, coaches need to grow into the throll and 70 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,639 Speaker 2: there'll be some hard questions asked for sure, And that's 71 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 2: why you take the job right. It's the hardest job 72 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,240 Speaker 2: in the world and you should be challenged. 73 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:18,079 Speaker 1: Good stuff might always good to catch up and enjoy. 74 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: At least. John Coo went out of Italy for US 75 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 1: this morning. 76 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,239 Speaker 2: For more from the Mic Asking Breakfast, listen live to 77 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 2: news talks it'd be from six am weekdays, or follow 78 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 2: the podcast on iHeartRadio.
