1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,639 Speaker 1: Darcy water Grave sports stook coasters with me now, hello 2 00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:06,360 Speaker 1: dance greeting. What's Nikarios got to say for himself? He's 3 00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:09,320 Speaker 1: not overly happy about what's happened with Annix Center. Does 4 00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:11,840 Speaker 1: he not believe the story? He's plainly not. I don't 5 00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:14,800 Speaker 1: know if he knows the details or the fine print 6 00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:18,360 Speaker 1: or what actually was come up with as far as 7 00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:24,680 Speaker 1: the the investigation into the one millionth of a gram 8 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:29,000 Speaker 1: because what happened to Jane got tested twice, so they 9 00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 1: had one another Sumer got tested twice and as a 10 00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,520 Speaker 1: direct result of that testing, he lost his ranking points 11 00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:37,280 Speaker 1: for that tournament, also lost his prize money, so that 12 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:40,199 Speaker 1: was already a hit, he protested. They went back, they 13 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:43,680 Speaker 1: had a look at it and went well, no on balance, no, no, 14 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 1: you're not guilty, and you're free to come up because 15 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:48,400 Speaker 1: the guy old lady who was giving him a massage, 16 00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:51,279 Speaker 1: it sprayed something on their hands. It's something that is 17 00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:54,720 Speaker 1: only available in a handful of countries. It's not all 18 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 1: and Italy. It's in there now and you're saying it's 19 00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:01,600 Speaker 1: my newtay. How much was in there? A billiant a 20 00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:05,040 Speaker 1: million three? So wasn't his performance? I would highly doubt. 21 00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:08,839 Speaker 1: I was. I was talking on the Travis Tiger today 22 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,319 Speaker 1: and you'll hear that on sports talk. He's the ahead 23 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:14,319 Speaker 1: of you SARTA, the antidoping place out of the States, 24 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 1: and he said, look, you can actually spray this on 25 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:18,840 Speaker 1: your hand. You could chake someone's hand and they would 26 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 1: show it positive for it and there's nothing in it 27 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,039 Speaker 1: that's performance enhancing. Okay, he's pleased about it because he's 28 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:28,319 Speaker 1: what he wants WADA to do now is find a threshold, 29 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:30,119 Speaker 1: because he said, there's a lot of money and time 30 00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:33,480 Speaker 1: spent chasing people that aren't cheating, that have got a 31 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,039 Speaker 1: minuscule amount of it in them, and it's really just 32 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 1: wasting everybody's time and it's tarnishing these athletes. Now, Travis 33 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 1: is fairly direct and fairly robust and his criticism of 34 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 1: drugged athletes, and he has no issue whatsoever with what's 35 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:51,080 Speaker 1: happened there with Sinner. He said, it's fine. It's a 36 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 1: shame you had to go through it, but there you go. 37 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 1: And of course Karios has come off half cocked a 38 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: few other ex tennis players as well. You know, one 39 00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 1: rule for them, one rule for something else. Well, I 40 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 1: think you'll take each case as it stands, don't you dars? 41 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 1: Have the spring box got a strength inside for the 42 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 1: All Blacks? Have they beefed it up? Well, they've got 43 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,079 Speaker 1: to know about beefed up because it's mostly just it's 44 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,359 Speaker 1: a couple of Fords. I mean, Stephen kits off. He's scary, 45 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 1: let's face it, a massive ginger prop he freaks me 46 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 1: out a jasper visa or jasper wise from jasper wise. 47 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 1: Other number eight is back and again, so there's a 48 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 1: couple of the big hefty pack back. But these five 49 00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 1: guys have all come back from winning a World Cup, 50 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 1: so they're not slugs. The half back hence is back 51 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 1: in again, Estehuzen and Moody back in the side again. 52 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 1: Remembering this is the first time these teams have clashed 53 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 1: since the defeat in the World Cup final. It is 54 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 1: in Jansburg, and what do we know about Jana'sburg? Very dangerous? 55 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 1: Never go there, it's gross, okay, And what else do 56 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,079 Speaker 1: we know about Johannesburg, high altitude? There you go, So 57 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 1: they're going to hopefully try and run the All Blacks 58 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:56,359 Speaker 1: off their feet. Now, the South Africa to be very 59 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 1: happy to come back from the drenching that they took 60 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: Weather what up against Australia back on his hard and 61 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 1: fast grounds. But also remember that Scott Barrett the Captain 62 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 1: will be back too. We got Ardie Savia who played 63 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 1: the house down at eight last time around, and then 64 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 1: you've got Sam Kin who will probably come off the 65 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 1: bench now. Sam will be fierce because it was that 66 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 1: game that got scene told that he did us All 67 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: Bay Captain. See, there are so many moving parts to 68 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 1: this and so many storylines into it. We only have 69 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 1: to wait for a week and a half. It's looking forward. Hey, 70 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,959 Speaker 1: thank you, Darcy, appreciate it.
