Speaker 1: Nineteen past four, Darcy water Grave sports to hold on. No,

00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:13,080
Speaker 1: have to pause, just like post faked it until you

00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:18,480
Speaker 1: made it right, Porsche unretired P double dub with all

00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:20,440
Speaker 1: of that or not? Yeah? Why not? Yeah, okay, there

7
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:22,079
Speaker 1: you go. I don't think it'll stick. None of my

8
00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:25,160
Speaker 1: other nicknames do. So this one pusha dubbed dub, pusha

9
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:27,639
Speaker 1: dub dub. Yeah that sounds P double dub, P dubbed

10
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:31,480
Speaker 1: up P dub dubyah doesn't matter. Well, she was going

11
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:34,199
Speaker 1: to go and play rugby league, yeah, and then they

12
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:37,640
Speaker 1: didn't want to. And it was they didn't want to

13
00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:41,000
Speaker 1: because she's had commitments as a ambassador if you will,

14
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 1: so they're like, no, we're not going to register you.

15
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 1: So so she carried just have an abundance of excellent players.

16
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:50,440
Speaker 1: Then if they were going to turn her up, she's

17
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:54,400
Speaker 1: one of the greats of the game. Yeah, male or female,

18
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. I still can't work that out. On stunned

19
00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 1: that they wouldn't want to name like that. That that's fine,

20
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 1: that's all right. You make your decisions. So she's playing

21
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 1: the opiki, doing particularly well in the senate role for

22
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:11,880
Speaker 1: the Blues. Then they win that champions match and she's

23
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 1: just having the time of her life. And then of

24
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 1: course all the noises that he come back to come back.

25
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,679
Speaker 1: Alan Barnteing, their coach, has been on various news channel's

26
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 1: TV stations, has coming back while we're having constructive conversation's

27
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 1: coming back. So today she's come back to eight month

28
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:29,679
Speaker 1: contract after you're going to come back. Whether she plays

29
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 1: thirteen or out on the wing, it doesn't matter. Having

30
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 1: someone of her strength ability to prepare the money she has,

31
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 1: that's skill that everything about poor shirt Woodman Wickcliffe is

32
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 1: immense in this game. So to climb back in the

33
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 1: volt again you think of the other players. Look, she's

34
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 1: got to get picked. Sure she will the other ones

35
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 1: and retire. Unless she got picked, well, I don't know

36
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 1: if they can promise that, yeah, we're going to pick you. Well,

37
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 1: why wouldn't you first on the name? Even when she

38
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 1: wasn't signed, they probably would have tried to pick it.

39
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 1: So good something. What is the Premier's played for? What

40
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 1: does all get it for? Well, the Premier's plate is Okay,

41
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:12,080
Speaker 1: So the concept of leagues and sport normally is like

42
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,959
Speaker 1: the EPL, right, the English Premier League. Everybody plays each

43
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 1: other home and away. You get to the end of

44
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 1: the season, whoever's got the most points wins the league. Yeah,

45
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: pretty simple, right? Ah? No, No, no league's been hijacked

46
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 1: by a lot of people. And now is the A

47
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 1: Leagues not actually a league? Because once you win the

48
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 1: A League, which is what the Premier has played for

49
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 1: through the playoffs, and then you win the A League.

50
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:37,840
Speaker 1: But you win the A League by winning the league?

51
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:39,200
Speaker 1: What is that? So are you telling me in their

52
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 1: debut season, debut season, they have come out and they

53
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:43,920
Speaker 1: have won the A League. It looks like it's on

54
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,640
Speaker 1: its way over in a plane apparently, and it's going

55
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 1: to be celebrated. They struggle to blow this and I

56
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 1: really hope I'm not the kiss of death on them,

57
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,240
Speaker 1: but you'd think the way they've traveled, what they've done,

58
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 1: it's been phenomenal what to start, and you'd think that

59
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,360
Speaker 1: the Premier play as years now, if they picked the

60
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 1: Premiers plate up, gives them a distinct advantage when it

61
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 1: comes to the semi finals. In the final, they get

62
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 1: the first week off, then they've got the choice because

63
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 1: the home and away semi we'll just give up, right.

64
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 1: I mean, if you come in and clock it, clock

65
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 1: the game in your first crack, you got to you

66
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,799
Speaker 1: gotta do something else. Your old school space is yeah,

67
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 1: clock it, clocked it. Do you have a clock any

68
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 1: of those games from it? Not Defender first level, mate,

69
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,639
Speaker 1: not even the first level Sonic, the Heachehog Try. It's

70
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 1: a wonderful time to be an Auckland football fan. If

00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:34,839
Speaker 1: you're a Phoenix fan, you're going. But there's another year,

72
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 1: don't worry. I mean the Wellington's used to being the

73
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 1: second rate year from Wellington, aren't you? No, not really,

74
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:44,120

75
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:46,800

80
