Look, the chances were there 79 00:04:59,547 --> 00:05:02,387 Speaker 3: from time to time execution in the end, you just 80 00:05:02,507 --> 00:05:04,947 Speaker 3: couldn't get it over the line right to first up 81 00:05:04,947 --> 00:05:07,427 Speaker 3: your initial reaction to it's what happened in the game. 82 00:05:08,107 --> 00:05:11,667 Speaker 9: Yeah, I think you're your smelters is pretty accurate there 83 00:05:12,387 --> 00:05:14,227 Speaker 9: and we saw those same same things. 84 00:05:14,507 --> 00:05:18,947 Speaker 10: So it was obviously gutted and it's quite changing them 85 00:05:18,987 --> 00:05:21,267 Speaker 10: at the moment. We had our opportunities key moments. 86 00:05:21,307 --> 00:05:23,507 Speaker 3: As far as your team are concerned to Tumanty, do 87 00:05:23,507 --> 00:05:26,707 Speaker 3: you think there's any area where you could have done better? 88 00:05:27,467 --> 00:05:28,787 Speaker 10: It's all pretty raw. 89 00:05:28,867 --> 00:05:31,587 Speaker 9: Now take me a while to get through the tape 90 00:05:31,627 --> 00:05:34,707 Speaker 9: tonight and tomorrow morning to give you a real accurate 91 00:05:34,987 --> 00:05:35,827 Speaker 9: coaches description. 92 00:05:37,107 --> 00:05:40,507 Speaker 10: But yes, there's just some obvious ones around down. 93 00:05:40,347 --> 00:05:42,467 Speaker 9: There half of the field and then the big swings 94 00:05:42,907 --> 00:05:45,347 Speaker 9: they capitalized when they got down to your end and 95 00:05:45,467 --> 00:05:46,427 Speaker 9: were probably. 96 00:05:46,507 --> 00:05:48,547 Speaker 10: We miss a few chances when we were down their end. 97 00:05:48,667 --> 00:05:52,947 Speaker 3: Statistically, Talmente, there wasn't a great deal of difference between 98 00:05:53,027 --> 00:05:56,467 Speaker 3: the two teams in South Africa. They just got the 99 00:05:56,507 --> 00:05:59,427 Speaker 3: whip hand when necessary. But do you think it's fair 100 00:05:59,507 --> 00:06:01,867 Speaker 3: enough to say that you're you're getting close? 101 00:06:02,667 --> 00:06:02,867 Speaker 11: Yeah? 102 00:06:02,867 --> 00:06:03,747 Speaker 10: I think that is fair. 103 00:06:04,307 --> 00:06:05,947 Speaker 9: It was definitely a Tessa match and as you said, 104 00:06:05,987 --> 00:06:10,707 Speaker 9: with the you know, the stats very even and you know, 105 00:06:10,907 --> 00:06:12,827 Speaker 9: pointing it there for for a very long time. So 106 00:06:13,547 --> 00:06:15,187 Speaker 9: I think that's that's accurate. 107 00:06:15,067 --> 00:06:18,427 Speaker 3: As far as coaching is concerned, Talty, yourself and the 108 00:06:18,427 --> 00:06:21,467 Speaker 3: rest of the crew, are you satisfied that you armed 109 00:06:21,707 --> 00:06:25,347 Speaker 3: your players, that you gave them the tools they needed, 110 00:06:25,427 --> 00:06:27,947 Speaker 3: and that they applied that on the park. 111 00:06:29,347 --> 00:06:31,987 Speaker 9: We're super proud of the efforts around the collision and 112 00:06:31,987 --> 00:06:34,507 Speaker 9: the intent. I think that was the same last week 113 00:06:35,387 --> 00:06:37,707 Speaker 9: so the Africa World champion team and then a big 114 00:06:37,747 --> 00:06:40,107 Speaker 9: side and I think and we definitely matched them in 115 00:06:40,587 --> 00:06:42,627 Speaker 9: the physical side of the game. 116 00:06:42,707 --> 00:06:44,707 Speaker 10: So you know, we're proud of the boys and the efforts. 117 00:06:46,307 --> 00:06:49,427 Speaker 9: I'm not sure if that answers your question, but that 118 00:06:49,547 --> 00:06:52,987 Speaker 9: the boys definitely showed, you know, the attitude and the 119 00:06:52,987 --> 00:06:54,747 Speaker 9: commitment of the Jersey one hundred. 120 00:06:54,467 --> 00:06:58,387 Speaker 3: Per Obviously, the result wasn't great from a team perspective tality, 121 00:06:58,547 --> 00:07:04,147 Speaker 3: but individually, there really were some pretty fine performances out there. 122 00:07:04,147 --> 00:07:06,667 Speaker 3: I suppose when you look to players that is that 123 00:07:06,707 --> 00:07:10,387 Speaker 3: the young fellow Wallace a Titi, he stood out. He 124 00:07:10,707 --> 00:07:13,867 Speaker 3: really really did his job and I think was one 125 00:07:13,907 --> 00:07:14,907 Speaker 3: of the shining lights here. 126 00:07:15,947 --> 00:07:20,507 Speaker 9: Yeah, an exceptional A Lee a polite young man, and 127 00:07:20,547 --> 00:07:22,187 Speaker 9: as you said, he was young and he's got a 128 00:07:22,227 --> 00:07:23,387 Speaker 9: very bright future. 129 00:07:23,427 --> 00:07:26,467 Speaker 10: So I'm proud of as if it's as well tonight. 130 00:07:26,827 --> 00:07:29,267 Speaker 3: What about the bench, Tumtee. A lot of debate last 131 00:07:29,307 --> 00:07:32,907 Speaker 3: week around how that bench was utilized throughout the game, 132 00:07:33,507 --> 00:07:36,387 Speaker 3: suggested Fletch, and you'll probably came on too late. You 133 00:07:36,387 --> 00:07:39,747 Speaker 3: looked at Lomax and he looked gassed, and that's where 134 00:07:39,787 --> 00:07:43,507 Speaker 3: the mistakes came from. So as far as application of 135 00:07:43,627 --> 00:07:46,427 Speaker 3: the bench, you're happy enough. Where do you sit with that? 136 00:07:47,427 --> 00:07:47,827 Speaker 4: Oh? 137 00:07:47,907 --> 00:07:50,307 Speaker 9: Yeah, I couldn't answer that accurately. I'm gonna I'm on 138 00:07:50,347 --> 00:07:55,547 Speaker 9: the ground running water. So there's probably a CHRISTI for 139 00:07:55,307 --> 00:07:56,467 Speaker 9: for one of the other coaches. 140 00:07:56,747 --> 00:08:00,627 Speaker 10: A wee bit of time to strategize around how we finished. 141 00:08:00,347 --> 00:08:03,667 Speaker 9: The end, to be fair, especially when you're talking front 142 00:08:03,707 --> 00:08:04,747 Speaker 9: rowers as well, it's. 143 00:08:04,627 --> 00:08:07,707 Speaker 3: Pretty much played type, didn't they and they executed. I 144 00:08:07,787 --> 00:08:10,547 Speaker 3: think that's the most important thing. When it came to 145 00:08:10,627 --> 00:08:13,867 Speaker 3: their box kicking, when it came to their contestable kicks, 146 00:08:14,187 --> 00:08:17,227 Speaker 3: they had it right on a dime, and of course 147 00:08:17,227 --> 00:08:20,747 Speaker 3: it took guys like Will Jordan out of play and 148 00:08:21,227 --> 00:08:25,467 Speaker 3: it really tested your team. I suppose you saw that coming. 149 00:08:26,027 --> 00:08:30,587 Speaker 9: I think you know it's DNA four that rugby box kicking, 150 00:08:30,627 --> 00:08:34,427 Speaker 9: big kicking and compete contests in the air. That's they 151 00:08:34,507 --> 00:08:36,547 Speaker 9: had it for a long time and they do it 152 00:08:36,547 --> 00:08:38,427 Speaker 9: really well. So that's you know what they are where 153 00:08:38,427 --> 00:08:40,827 Speaker 9: they are at the moment. Yeah, we saw it coming 154 00:08:40,867 --> 00:08:44,107 Speaker 9: and you have a plan around it. But as I said, 155 00:08:44,267 --> 00:08:47,027 Speaker 9: they're really good at competing in the air and disrupting 156 00:08:47,067 --> 00:08:47,707 Speaker 9: ball and there. 157 00:08:48,027 --> 00:08:51,587 Speaker 3: What's your philosophy, what's your edict around when to take 158 00:08:51,707 --> 00:08:55,627 Speaker 3: three points when they're on offer and taking some criticism 159 00:08:55,747 --> 00:08:59,187 Speaker 3: last week around that this time around, some turned down, 160 00:08:59,267 --> 00:09:02,347 Speaker 3: some taking, some missed. Is there a thought that maybe 161 00:09:02,387 --> 00:09:06,547 Speaker 3: these should be taken regardless of where you are as 162 00:09:06,547 --> 00:09:08,387 Speaker 3: far as the points are concerned. 163 00:09:08,427 --> 00:09:09,107 Speaker 10: Not regardless. 164 00:09:09,307 --> 00:09:10,787 Speaker 9: So you've got to you've got to take points on 165 00:09:10,867 --> 00:09:15,947 Speaker 9: context and in the floor of the game cards you know, No, 166 00:09:16,027 --> 00:09:19,307 Speaker 9: it's not Yeah, you're dealing with the context where we 167 00:09:19,347 --> 00:09:21,307 Speaker 9: think we are forgot the momentum, et cetera. 168 00:09:21,507 --> 00:09:24,787 Speaker 3: Plenty of yellow cards being flashed around during the exchanges. 169 00:09:25,187 --> 00:09:28,787 Speaker 3: Tality from your viewpoint, do you feel that the officials, 170 00:09:28,827 --> 00:09:32,787 Speaker 3: the referee I dealt with the applications of yellow cards 171 00:09:32,987 --> 00:09:33,947 Speaker 3: in a fair fashion. 172 00:09:34,387 --> 00:09:36,867 Speaker 9: Yeah, I'm actually unsure as the seat of the balance 173 00:09:36,867 --> 00:09:40,107 Speaker 9: of penalties. I'm being running the water on the really 174 00:09:40,147 --> 00:09:42,507 Speaker 9: have a computer in front of me. I thought that 175 00:09:43,227 --> 00:09:46,627 Speaker 9: done a good jobs. It's as loud out therefore for 176 00:09:46,667 --> 00:09:48,827 Speaker 9: the referees as it is for the players, and they're 177 00:09:48,827 --> 00:09:51,387 Speaker 9: doing their very best. So again, will have a good 178 00:09:51,387 --> 00:09:54,347 Speaker 9: look at the tape and and probably have more information 179 00:09:54,467 --> 00:09:56,107 Speaker 9: for you tomorrow afternoon. 180 00:09:56,987 --> 00:10:00,547 Speaker 3: Credit where credits do though, the South Africans played some 181 00:10:00,707 --> 00:10:02,747 Speaker 3: great rugby. They have been for quite some time now. 182 00:10:02,787 --> 00:10:08,027 Speaker 3: It's almost reminiscent, reminiscent of the heyday of All Black rugby. 183 00:10:08,267 --> 00:10:12,067 Speaker 3: They're a difficult team to stop and they can stop 184 00:10:12,107 --> 00:10:16,227 Speaker 3: you guys too. Looks like with I won't say relative ease, 185 00:10:16,307 --> 00:10:18,947 Speaker 3: but this is a talented team. You have to be 186 00:10:18,987 --> 00:10:21,187 Speaker 3: impressed with what they bring to the park. 187 00:10:21,867 --> 00:10:22,667 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, we are. 188 00:10:24,347 --> 00:10:27,227 Speaker 9: You know, they're winning those pressure moments for a reason, 189 00:10:27,827 --> 00:10:29,347 Speaker 9: you know, the World champions for a reason. 190 00:10:29,387 --> 00:10:31,667 Speaker 10: So yeah, they deserve that. 191 00:10:31,747 --> 00:10:35,467 Speaker 3: Tonight, seven game three losses coming to hardly ideal for 192 00:10:35,507 --> 00:10:40,227 Speaker 3: the start of this coaching groups tenure. So what happens 193 00:10:40,267 --> 00:10:44,227 Speaker 3: now moving to the next part of the championship. 194 00:10:44,067 --> 00:10:46,947 Speaker 10: Are The key is, you know, let's still honest conversations. 195 00:10:46,947 --> 00:10:49,427 Speaker 10: It's consistent process. 196 00:10:49,107 --> 00:10:51,747 Speaker 9: It's max if at making sure we're putting in the work, 197 00:10:52,747 --> 00:10:54,347 Speaker 9: you know, and and helping. 198 00:10:54,107 --> 00:10:56,667 Speaker 10: Build the players weak to week and keeping in. 199 00:10:56,587 --> 00:10:58,827 Speaker 9: The group tight. And I don't think that would change 200 00:10:59,787 --> 00:11:02,307 Speaker 9: when's or losses.

Now, I 239 00:12:58,347 --> 00:13:00,147 Speaker 12: re what old Raide has gotta do. He's got to 240 00:13:00,147 --> 00:13:03,627 Speaker 12: spend a whole week just discipline the rules. They let 241 00:13:03,787 --> 00:13:08,387 Speaker 12: the basic understanding of the rules getting yellow cards. And 242 00:13:09,107 --> 00:13:11,907 Speaker 12: also too, they're not focusing on the ball. You watched 243 00:13:11,907 --> 00:13:15,627 Speaker 12: the play. How many times that ball foot on the ground. 244 00:13:16,427 --> 00:13:20,147 Speaker 12: They should be watching that ball like gold bar and 245 00:13:20,227 --> 00:13:22,307 Speaker 12: bouncing on it quite off of that bulls. 246 00:13:22,947 --> 00:13:23,507 Speaker 11: They should be. 247 00:13:23,427 --> 00:13:26,427 Speaker 12: Bouncing that ball of centers that's free, free to jump 248 00:13:26,507 --> 00:13:29,987 Speaker 12: on the damn thing. They saw that lack jumping on 249 00:13:29,987 --> 00:13:31,467 Speaker 12: that ball when it's three to be jumped on. They 250 00:13:31,507 --> 00:13:33,667 Speaker 12: were almost like they're wanting theirself. Happened to jump on it. 251 00:13:33,907 --> 00:13:36,107 Speaker 3: That was many times now guilty of that last week 252 00:13:36,147 --> 00:13:38,307 Speaker 3: as well, And it was a massive hole. Wasn't there 253 00:13:38,707 --> 00:13:41,707 Speaker 3: behind the ruck where there was just nobody there? That 254 00:13:41,787 --> 00:13:43,867 Speaker 3: it happened a lot this morning. I'm trying to wrap 255 00:13:43,907 --> 00:13:46,187 Speaker 3: back from it. I think I saw it once, maybe twice, 256 00:13:46,227 --> 00:13:48,907 Speaker 3: but yeah, and I think the the adherence to the 257 00:13:48,987 --> 00:13:52,667 Speaker 3: rules is super important plaining, but you've also got to 258 00:13:52,667 --> 00:13:56,027 Speaker 3: take into account the nature of the referee and what 259 00:13:56,187 --> 00:13:58,147 Speaker 3: they are doing. And you've got to play to their 260 00:13:58,187 --> 00:14:00,747 Speaker 3: whistle into their minds. Something I found and Peak thanks 261 00:14:00,747 --> 00:14:05,347 Speaker 3: for your call. Fascinating about this is how quickly the 262 00:14:05,387 --> 00:14:08,027 Speaker 3: ball had to be removed. Use it, Use it. It 263 00:14:08,027 --> 00:14:10,707 Speaker 3: had been in there like one second. Use it, use it. 264 00:14:11,547 --> 00:14:13,307 Speaker 3: Not quite sure what period it was from the top 265 00:14:13,347 --> 00:14:14,227 Speaker 3: high Mark, how are you? 266 00:14:15,627 --> 00:14:15,867 Speaker 13: Yeah? 267 00:14:15,907 --> 00:14:16,427 Speaker 4: Good Darcy? 268 00:14:16,907 --> 00:14:17,947 Speaker 11: Yeah, the referee. 269 00:14:18,107 --> 00:14:20,587 Speaker 14: I don't think it's just an over the two matches, 270 00:14:20,627 --> 00:14:22,787 Speaker 14: and I don't actually think it was world class referring 271 00:14:23,587 --> 00:14:25,827 Speaker 14: considering you've got the two best sides in the world. 272 00:14:26,027 --> 00:14:29,467 Speaker 14: I actually thought both sides deserve better officiating than we've 273 00:14:29,467 --> 00:14:32,907 Speaker 14: gotten the two tests, to be honest, very cool you've got, 274 00:14:33,627 --> 00:14:39,467 Speaker 14: yeah Africans. I mean, you know, just mentally this team, 275 00:14:39,747 --> 00:14:43,107 Speaker 14: parent team in the World Cup, just so so mentally tough. 276 00:14:43,147 --> 00:14:45,507 Speaker 14: And the fact that they just keep getting up over 277 00:14:45,587 --> 00:14:48,267 Speaker 14: us in the last you know, twenty minutes of the 278 00:14:48,307 --> 00:14:50,867 Speaker 14: game is a testament to have goodness side. And how 279 00:14:50,947 --> 00:14:53,267 Speaker 14: well they're rolling at the moment. You know, they went 280 00:14:53,267 --> 00:14:55,747 Speaker 14: through the World Cup. I think they won three games 281 00:14:55,747 --> 00:14:58,387 Speaker 14: by one point. You know, they didn't really haven't really 282 00:14:58,467 --> 00:15:01,107 Speaker 14: thrashed the All Blacks. I don't imagine they'd be super 283 00:15:01,107 --> 00:15:02,907 Speaker 14: happy with a lot of their play they did. 284 00:15:04,107 --> 00:15:07,067 Speaker 3: They were faultless, but they know to take to win. 285 00:15:07,147 --> 00:15:09,707 Speaker 3: And we always say it doesn't matter one point. It 286 00:15:09,907 --> 00:15:12,627 Speaker 3: doesn't matter. One point is what you need, Like the 287 00:15:12,667 --> 00:15:15,267 Speaker 3: way you reference how good the spring Boks are even 288 00:15:15,307 --> 00:15:20,067 Speaker 3: though they did play perfectly, they knew how to play, 289 00:15:20,107 --> 00:15:22,107 Speaker 3: when to play, and they know how to win. And 290 00:15:22,107 --> 00:15:23,707 Speaker 3: that's what the All Blacks used to be. 291 00:15:23,867 --> 00:15:23,947 Speaker 15: Like. 292 00:15:25,467 --> 00:15:28,307 Speaker 14: Yeah, and I think I think a weakness to me 293 00:15:28,467 --> 00:15:30,907 Speaker 14: is I mean, obviously you can see what they're doing 294 00:15:30,947 --> 00:15:34,627 Speaker 14: with them, but under pressure, he's not performing. You know, 295 00:15:34,627 --> 00:15:36,747 Speaker 14: he missed that kick to put us in front right 296 00:15:36,787 --> 00:15:39,387 Speaker 14: at the end, which was was a you know, a 297 00:15:39,427 --> 00:15:41,667 Speaker 14: pretty easy kick to be honest, I mean I thought 298 00:15:41,667 --> 00:15:48,507 Speaker 14: that was pleased commentators gone, It's just I mean, he 299 00:15:48,547 --> 00:15:50,787 Speaker 14: shouldn't have made it even like you know, question that. 300 00:15:50,827 --> 00:15:52,227 Speaker 14: I mean, that was a very Do you think that 301 00:15:52,347 --> 00:15:53,267 Speaker 14: was an easy kick or not? 302 00:15:53,707 --> 00:15:56,227 Speaker 3: Oh, I don't know. I've never placed kicked the ball 303 00:15:56,947 --> 00:15:59,747 Speaker 3: at Cape Town under the pressure of an All Black jersey, 304 00:15:59,787 --> 00:16:04,587 Speaker 3: so I can't say it's easy. Just unfair. Look, it 305 00:16:04,707 --> 00:16:08,907 Speaker 3: should have been fairly simple for a goalkeeper at a 306 00:16:08,987 --> 00:16:10,827 Speaker 3: goal sorry goal kicker at that level. 307 00:16:12,187 --> 00:16:14,947 Speaker 14: Yeah, and I think that's that's probably my point. But 308 00:16:15,027 --> 00:16:17,587 Speaker 14: I think under pressure and he's not. He's not the year. 309 00:16:17,867 --> 00:16:20,907 Speaker 14: As you just mentioned, this is the highest pressure, hot, 310 00:16:21,067 --> 00:16:24,107 Speaker 14: hardest game in rugby for any team just to go 311 00:16:24,147 --> 00:16:26,627 Speaker 14: to South Africa and win. So we've got to got 312 00:16:26,747 --> 00:16:28,667 Speaker 14: to cut a bit of slack there. I think the 313 00:16:28,667 --> 00:16:31,507 Speaker 14: weakest part of the game at the moment is just 314 00:16:31,627 --> 00:16:34,747 Speaker 14: out kicking. I don't think it's world class. I think 315 00:16:34,787 --> 00:16:37,427 Speaker 14: there's a lot of good point points about our game 316 00:16:37,427 --> 00:16:40,787 Speaker 14: at the moment. I thought Sam Caine is probably to me, 317 00:16:41,107 --> 00:16:43,667 Speaker 14: you know, his resilience to come back from what he's 318 00:16:43,667 --> 00:16:46,947 Speaker 14: been through mentally last year in the World Cup, and 319 00:16:47,067 --> 00:16:49,827 Speaker 14: I thought he played it was one of the outstanding players. 320 00:16:49,867 --> 00:16:52,667 Speaker 14: I think he's saved to try by tech clans, probably 321 00:16:52,667 --> 00:16:55,627 Speaker 14: the most dangerous person in rugby colby to save a 322 00:16:55,747 --> 00:17:00,107 Speaker 14: try it, you know, in the first half that boy. 323 00:16:59,747 --> 00:17:01,387 Speaker 3: Hey, Mark, thanks for your reflection on that. We're going 324 00:17:01,387 --> 00:17:03,107 Speaker 3: to carry on with the calls. Oh one hundred eighty 325 00:17:03,347 --> 00:17:06,547 Speaker 3: ten eighty have you say here at z B Julian high. 326 00:17:08,347 --> 00:17:09,027 Speaker 11: Mate?

Those 332 00:17:22,227 --> 00:17:24,627 Speaker 16: players have got to be had time to connect with 333 00:17:24,667 --> 00:17:27,227 Speaker 16: each other. He's got to stamp his coaching style or 334 00:17:27,227 --> 00:17:30,227 Speaker 16: philosophy on the game. You know, it takes time for 335 00:17:30,267 --> 00:17:34,507 Speaker 16: the players to adjust to him as well. So I'm 336 00:17:34,547 --> 00:17:37,227 Speaker 16: just saying it takes time to build a world class 337 00:17:37,267 --> 00:17:39,747 Speaker 16: team again, and South Africans have done it. They had 338 00:17:39,747 --> 00:17:42,147 Speaker 16: their time when they were in the in the Dolbrons 339 00:17:42,547 --> 00:17:45,227 Speaker 16: and rescy Reestmus has got them going and built them 340 00:17:45,267 --> 00:17:47,547 Speaker 16: up and it's taken time and look where they are today. 341 00:17:47,587 --> 00:17:49,027 Speaker 16: So we've got to go through the same thing. 342 00:17:49,427 --> 00:17:51,987 Speaker 3: There was a situation that went on for a number 343 00:17:51,987 --> 00:17:55,467 Speaker 3: of years where one coach had the next coach as 344 00:17:55,507 --> 00:17:58,707 Speaker 3: an assistant coach and so on and so forth. It's 345 00:17:58,707 --> 00:18:01,827 Speaker 3: how Ian Foster ended up with the jobs. So the 346 00:18:01,907 --> 00:18:06,507 Speaker 3: association with the man themselves who was the men themselves 347 00:18:06,547 --> 00:18:09,467 Speaker 3: who are playing and the coach was already there because 348 00:18:09,507 --> 00:18:12,107 Speaker 3: of that succession plan. So don't your point, your mate 349 00:18:12,227 --> 00:18:15,667 Speaker 3: is probably fair. Although there are a number of crusaders 350 00:18:15,667 --> 00:18:19,027 Speaker 3: in that side, this is fresh and new. So yeah, 351 00:18:19,027 --> 00:18:21,547 Speaker 3: if you want in the business of cutting slack by 352 00:18:21,547 --> 00:18:23,867 Speaker 3: all means. But Julian, are we in the business of 353 00:18:23,907 --> 00:18:26,987 Speaker 3: cutting slack because this is the All Blacks after all. 354 00:18:27,187 --> 00:18:29,387 Speaker 3: I think we hold them to pretty high standards, don't we. 355 00:18:30,387 --> 00:18:32,667 Speaker 16: Yeah, we do, But you've got it. It takes time. 356 00:18:33,227 --> 00:18:36,627 Speaker 16: You can't instantly have a you know, a world class 357 00:18:36,627 --> 00:18:39,307 Speaker 16: team with a new coach to turning up and new 358 00:18:39,307 --> 00:18:42,667 Speaker 16: players and everything's new new coaches, new players, new situations, 359 00:18:43,347 --> 00:18:45,507 Speaker 16: and we're wanting, we're wanting just so much out of them. 360 00:18:45,507 --> 00:18:47,747 Speaker 16: I reckon that that wasn't There was a close game 361 00:18:47,827 --> 00:18:51,067 Speaker 16: last night and All Blacks didn't do too badly at all, 362 00:18:51,107 --> 00:18:54,267 Speaker 16: and they definitely improved on the week before, and so 363 00:18:54,667 --> 00:18:56,627 Speaker 16: they're moving in the right direction. I reckon, just give 364 00:18:56,667 --> 00:18:59,067 Speaker 16: them a bit more time and they they'll they'll, they're gonna, 365 00:18:59,067 --> 00:18:59,787 Speaker 16: they're going to do this. 366 00:19:00,107 --> 00:19:02,787 Speaker 3: You're a very forgiving character, Julian, thanks very much for 367 00:19:02,947 --> 00:19:06,307 Speaker 3: that positive and put twenty eight minutes after mid day, 368 00:19:06,507 --> 00:19:08,387 Speaker 3: how much do we miss an attack coach and Liam 369 00:19:08,427 --> 00:19:11,707 Speaker 3: McDonald and we know they can't score in the last 370 00:19:11,707 --> 00:19:17,547 Speaker 3: twenty minutes, but no tries, no scores. There's some alarm 371 00:19:17,587 --> 00:19:20,627 Speaker 3: bells there, right, Surely there are eight hundred and eighty 372 00:19:20,787 --> 00:19:23,427 Speaker 3: ten eighty lines are open, so the sports talk on 373 00:19:23,467 --> 00:19:27,867 Speaker 3: News Talk ZBM Darcy, Hello Goose on weekend sport excuse me, 374 00:19:28,267 --> 00:19:30,307 Speaker 3: old habits die hard good? I does? How are you? 375 00:19:31,627 --> 00:19:31,827 Speaker 6: Yeah? 376 00:19:33,587 --> 00:19:35,347 Speaker 13: I don't know whether I should be talking to you 377 00:19:35,427 --> 00:19:37,387 Speaker 13: or whether you should just flip back and play my 378 00:19:37,467 --> 00:19:41,507 Speaker 13: call after the first Humor's game, because we're in the 379 00:19:41,507 --> 00:19:44,707 Speaker 13: same situation and it is what it is. I don't 380 00:19:44,747 --> 00:19:49,627 Speaker 13: think the refereeing was overly terrible. From what it was 381 00:19:50,347 --> 00:19:53,107 Speaker 13: or for who it was, we couldn't have expected much better. 382 00:19:54,947 --> 00:19:57,907 Speaker 13: But we're in the same situation I said back then, 383 00:19:58,027 --> 00:20:01,667 Speaker 13: where Raisers on the hiding to nothing, being handed the 384 00:20:01,707 --> 00:20:06,307 Speaker 13: worst all black team in history in the professional era anyway, 385 00:20:07,147 --> 00:20:11,027 Speaker 13: where we haven't got an international quality first five. I 386 00:20:11,147 --> 00:20:15,827 Speaker 13: challenge anybody outside of probably the second game to let 387 00:20:15,827 --> 00:20:19,267 Speaker 13: me know when we saw any real game management out 388 00:20:19,267 --> 00:20:23,187 Speaker 13: of McKenzie. We've seen no back line really across all 389 00:20:23,227 --> 00:20:26,147 Speaker 13: of those tests for most of them anyway. 390 00:20:26,467 --> 00:20:29,587 Speaker 3: So is it a case of dragging Boden Bart if 391 00:20:29,587 --> 00:20:32,707 Speaker 3: this indeed is the problem, and I understand and I 392 00:20:32,827 --> 00:20:35,827 Speaker 3: get your point, I don't know if Damien at that 393 00:20:35,867 --> 00:20:38,787 Speaker 3: level is actually capable of a constructing a decent and 394 00:20:38,907 --> 00:20:41,907 Speaker 3: sound game plan. But what do you do now we've 395 00:20:41,907 --> 00:20:45,227 Speaker 3: got no more Wana? Do you drag Boden and do 396 00:20:45,307 --> 00:20:46,547 Speaker 3: you let him carry on? 397 00:20:46,587 --> 00:20:46,707 Speaker 16: What? 398 00:20:46,707 --> 00:20:48,147 Speaker 3: What's the solution here? Goose? 399 00:20:49,307 --> 00:20:51,827 Speaker 13: Yeah, Well it's not Boden Barrett because he was Player 400 00:20:51,827 --> 00:20:54,027 Speaker 13: of the Year and the first year the world Player 401 00:20:54,027 --> 00:20:55,747 Speaker 13: of the Year and the first year he's got he 402 00:20:55,827 --> 00:20:57,827 Speaker 13: got it, and then he's gone backwards ever since, and 403 00:20:57,947 --> 00:21:00,787 Speaker 13: he's just as bad as Mackenzie. It's a horrible concept. 404 00:21:00,827 --> 00:21:02,187 Speaker 13: I think he's going to solve it. 405 00:21:04,667 --> 00:21:06,227 Speaker 3: Who's there? What do you do? What do you do? 406 00:21:07,547 --> 00:21:09,987 Speaker 13: Well, that's the problem. The best chance we've got with 407 00:21:10,107 --> 00:21:13,267 Speaker 13: what we're looking at with the people that raises named 408 00:21:13,347 --> 00:21:17,507 Speaker 13: is Harry Plummer. But when we're talking about a legacy 409 00:21:17,587 --> 00:21:20,387 Speaker 13: that Hanson and Foster have left us with this ten 410 00:21:20,507 --> 00:21:24,707 Speaker 13: fifteen idiocy that we've seen for two cycles, and now 411 00:21:24,747 --> 00:21:28,547 Speaker 13: we've got no first five available in the country, and 412 00:21:28,747 --> 00:21:32,867 Speaker 13: that are doubled down on that idiocy by securing Barrett 413 00:21:32,907 --> 00:21:35,707 Speaker 13: and giving Richie the big middle finger, and so he 414 00:21:35,827 --> 00:21:38,387 Speaker 13: bug it off and now we've got nothing. That's what 415 00:21:38,427 --> 00:21:40,867 Speaker 13: we're the situation we're in. We're a good couple of 416 00:21:40,947 --> 00:21:44,547 Speaker 13: years at least of this kind of hidden this against 417 00:21:44,667 --> 00:21:48,387 Speaker 13: any decent side, because we haven't got a game manager. 418 00:21:48,387 --> 00:21:52,227 Speaker 3: Game controller, game manager arguably the most important player on 419 00:21:52,387 --> 00:21:55,547 Speaker 3: the part Goose, Thanks for that, was appreciate your time, 420 00:21:55,747 --> 00:21:57,467 Speaker 3: ross your arm. What have you got? 421 00:21:59,227 --> 00:21:59,787 Speaker 14: Well he does? 422 00:21:59,827 --> 00:22:00,787 Speaker 4: How are we doing that today? 423 00:22:00,827 --> 00:22:02,867 Speaker 17: Hey, I'm growing by the box. 424 00:22:02,587 --> 00:22:05,867 Speaker 3: A fantastic years. It was to the is the spoil 425 00:22:06,547 --> 00:22:09,227 Speaker 3: It was they they are the All Blacks of you 426 00:22:09,267 --> 00:22:12,267 Speaker 3: know of recent times that they know how to win, 427 00:22:12,387 --> 00:22:14,187 Speaker 3: they know how to get the job done, and he 428 00:22:14,347 --> 00:22:16,387 Speaker 3: cannot take that away from them. 429 00:22:17,147 --> 00:22:17,787 Speaker 14: Yeah, well it does. 430 00:22:17,827 --> 00:22:19,227 Speaker 7: I mean if even if I mean, if you look 431 00:22:19,227 --> 00:22:21,467 Speaker 7: at the stats from the game, I mean the All 432 00:22:21,507 --> 00:22:24,587 Speaker 7: Blacks I think they beat thirty seven defenders today. They 433 00:22:24,587 --> 00:22:28,147 Speaker 7: didn't score a try that eleven clear turnovers, you know, 434 00:22:28,227 --> 00:22:30,947 Speaker 7: the box turned you know, the box turned down five 435 00:22:30,987 --> 00:22:33,507 Speaker 7: clear shots at goal. I mean the box played really 436 00:22:33,547 --> 00:22:35,947 Speaker 7: like the All Blacks of old. And I even thought 437 00:22:35,947 --> 00:22:37,587 Speaker 7: watching that game, I thought, man, he was going to 438 00:22:37,627 --> 00:22:40,067 Speaker 7: come back to wunt us not taking these chances, you know, 439 00:22:40,107 --> 00:22:43,947 Speaker 7: because normally threees are given the park who always sacrifice tries. 440 00:22:43,987 --> 00:22:45,827 Speaker 7: If they've got a clear opportunity to take the three, 441 00:22:46,027 --> 00:22:49,147 Speaker 7: they'll take the three on, and I thought they just 442 00:22:49,147 --> 00:22:51,787 Speaker 7: had that belief and I think also they believe in 443 00:22:51,827 --> 00:22:54,747 Speaker 7: the physicality, you know that I knew that it would 444 00:22:54,747 --> 00:22:56,787 Speaker 7: pay off in the end, and so they just kept 445 00:22:56,787 --> 00:22:58,907 Speaker 7: on persisting. And there was a lot of a lot 446 00:22:58,907 --> 00:23:01,587 Speaker 7: of peculiar things, I mean from the from the all 447 00:23:01,627 --> 00:23:03,587 Speaker 7: black side, I mean I thought, I mean, at one 448 00:23:03,627 --> 00:23:05,627 Speaker 7: point when I was watching the game, I thought, Whire's 449 00:23:05,627 --> 00:23:08,307 Speaker 7: Wallace a teating and he had a phenomenal game. I 450 00:23:08,347 --> 00:23:10,267 Speaker 7: was extremely happy to see him go off. I was 451 00:23:10,307 --> 00:23:13,147 Speaker 7: extremely happy to see Bowden Parratt come on after sixty 452 00:23:13,147 --> 00:23:16,707 Speaker 7: odd minutes. You know, there was and not obviously there 453 00:23:16,707 --> 00:23:18,427 Speaker 7: are three players off the Pence that they didn't even 454 00:23:18,427 --> 00:23:20,707 Speaker 7: bring on, you know, and you're playing the Box and 455 00:23:20,707 --> 00:23:23,587 Speaker 7: you're trying to match their pysigality and their pomb squad. 456 00:23:23,627 --> 00:23:24,987 Speaker 7: I mean, a whole lot of talk during the week 457 00:23:25,147 --> 00:23:28,307 Speaker 7: was how do we match the bomb squad? And Rulda 458 00:23:28,387 --> 00:23:31,027 Speaker 7: thought that they have three first players sitting on that 459 00:23:31,067 --> 00:23:33,667 Speaker 7: bench not coming off, you know, and it was I 460 00:23:33,667 --> 00:23:35,707 Speaker 7: think a lot of that was a telling part that 461 00:23:35,907 --> 00:23:38,587 Speaker 7: it was the spring Box called it slow poison. They 462 00:23:38,587 --> 00:23:41,307 Speaker 7: have the first team start, then they have the bomb squad, 463 00:23:41,307 --> 00:23:43,507 Speaker 7: come on, and it's a slow poison that they give you, 464 00:23:43,507 --> 00:23:46,027 Speaker 7: you know. And yeah, there's a lot of peculiar decisions. 465 00:23:46,027 --> 00:23:48,507 Speaker 7: And I think one of the callers mentioned correctly. I mean, 466 00:23:48,907 --> 00:23:52,347 Speaker 7: Damon mckens is a real good player, but not so 467 00:23:52,467 --> 00:23:53,027 Speaker 7: in terms. 468 00:23:52,867 --> 00:23:53,667 Speaker 14: Of game management. 469 00:23:53,707 --> 00:23:56,347 Speaker 7: You know, a lot of the kicking, you know, left 470 00:23:56,387 --> 00:23:56,987 Speaker 7: a lot to be. 471 00:23:56,987 --> 00:23:57,867 Speaker 14: Desired as well. 472 00:23:58,867 --> 00:24:00,387 Speaker 7: Now is a good player as a good half back, 473 00:24:00,467 --> 00:24:02,267 Speaker 7: but I don't think he's going to give you impact 474 00:24:02,267 --> 00:24:04,747 Speaker 7: coming off the bench, you know. So there's a lot 475 00:24:04,787 --> 00:24:07,467 Speaker 7: of question marks that I think was around all blacks 476 00:24:07,547 --> 00:24:09,547 Speaker 7: that played our advantage there as well. 477 00:24:09,827 --> 00:24:12,867 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think that it's really difficult Ross and 478 00:24:12,987 --> 00:24:16,507 Speaker 3: thanks for your call. When you're coming into the team 479 00:24:16,667 --> 00:24:21,027 Speaker 3: in the shadow of Richie Muwanga, of Dan Carter, of 480 00:24:21,067 --> 00:24:25,067 Speaker 3: Bowden Barrett and his pomp. It is difficult and it 481 00:24:25,107 --> 00:24:27,867 Speaker 3: is a key position. This is raised his problem now though. 482 00:24:28,027 --> 00:24:32,347 Speaker 3: And you mentioned the subs bench and how it gets used, 483 00:24:32,347 --> 00:24:35,187 Speaker 3: and we had this discussion last week on Sports Talk 484 00:24:35,347 --> 00:24:39,147 Speaker 3: of an evening. I asked Tummoty about it before. How 485 00:24:39,187 --> 00:24:43,467 Speaker 3: that's managed is key? Is it being managed in the 486 00:24:43,547 --> 00:24:48,827 Speaker 3: correct fashion or in an effective fashion? And you'd have 487 00:24:48,907 --> 00:24:51,027 Speaker 3: to say no, it isn't hi. 488 00:24:51,067 --> 00:24:58,587 Speaker 18: Tom am gonna Yeah, terrible, terrible game, Well terrible to 489 00:24:58,627 --> 00:25:01,907 Speaker 18: the sense that we've got issues. I think McKenzie is 490 00:25:01,987 --> 00:25:06,307 Speaker 18: an issue. I think that could be an issue to 491 00:25:06,347 --> 00:25:08,427 Speaker 18: who is the leadership where you've got all the barrets 492 00:25:08,787 --> 00:25:13,387 Speaker 18: having a bit of a captain c or a leadership 493 00:25:13,467 --> 00:25:16,027 Speaker 18: role where I think Scott's relying too much on his 494 00:25:16,107 --> 00:25:18,787 Speaker 18: brothers maybe to try to guide or drive that back line, 495 00:25:18,867 --> 00:25:23,707 Speaker 18: and there is nothing there. And even Jordie, right, Jordie's 496 00:25:23,747 --> 00:25:26,667 Speaker 18: normally has a great seven out of ten game. He's 497 00:25:26,667 --> 00:25:29,187 Speaker 18: been quiet for the last few games, and I can 498 00:25:29,267 --> 00:25:32,867 Speaker 18: only see that being because McKenzie is no one can 499 00:25:32,947 --> 00:25:33,627 Speaker 18: read McKenzie. 500 00:25:33,627 --> 00:25:34,307 Speaker 14: He's a bit like. 501 00:25:34,227 --> 00:25:38,067 Speaker 18: A Carla Spencer of Yesteryear, where he has a couple 502 00:25:38,067 --> 00:25:40,787 Speaker 18: of good games and then he has a couple of 503 00:25:40,787 --> 00:25:44,027 Speaker 18: shockers and no one can read his game other than him. 504 00:25:45,627 --> 00:25:49,187 Speaker 3: That's not a good way. Well, it's not a fault 505 00:25:49,187 --> 00:25:51,867 Speaker 3: from can't be in that position. They've got to have 506 00:25:51,987 --> 00:25:54,347 Speaker 3: that sixth sense. Is it a matter of time before 507 00:25:54,427 --> 00:25:56,627 Speaker 3: who he was inside and outside of him realize I 508 00:25:56,707 --> 00:26:01,187 Speaker 3: understand what he's doing. I know the term Tom blowfly 509 00:26:01,227 --> 00:26:03,307 Speaker 3: on a bottle has been used quite a lot, very 510 00:26:03,387 --> 00:26:07,027 Speaker 3: difficult to predict. Hard for the opposition, but just as hard, 511 00:26:07,027 --> 00:26:08,827 Speaker 3: if not worse, for your own teammates. 512 00:26:09,627 --> 00:26:12,187 Speaker 18: Well, certain, I think he's had enough. He's had enough 513 00:26:12,227 --> 00:26:15,587 Speaker 18: opportunity over the past few years. Right, so even Foster 514 00:26:15,787 --> 00:26:18,747 Speaker 18: was tinkering around with them, couldn't get their raises hit 515 00:26:18,787 --> 00:26:20,507 Speaker 18: a couple of goes. I think you need to cut 516 00:26:20,507 --> 00:26:24,547 Speaker 18: your losses with them. There's Plumberg I got told even 517 00:26:24,587 --> 00:26:27,227 Speaker 18: Reuben Love Potentially I know he's fallback, but maybe they 518 00:26:27,267 --> 00:26:31,267 Speaker 18: try something new, completely different. But or they've got to 519 00:26:31,267 --> 00:26:33,387 Speaker 18: pay to get my hunger back, simple as that they 520 00:26:33,387 --> 00:26:35,667 Speaker 18: get off the ground jewels and get my hunger back. 521 00:26:37,307 --> 00:26:39,067 Speaker 3: Oh to hear that. Good on you, Tom, Thanks very 522 00:26:39,147 --> 00:26:41,507 Speaker 3: much for your inport. One hundred eighty ten eighty lines 523 00:26:41,547 --> 00:26:44,987 Speaker 3: are open twenty four minutes to one. Still to come 524 00:26:45,027 --> 00:26:47,667 Speaker 3: up on the program up after one o'clock. We'll talk 525 00:26:47,707 --> 00:26:50,907 Speaker 3: with Ana because she made everybody happy after that All 526 00:26:50,947 --> 00:26:54,147 Speaker 3: Blacks defeat by Willing winning gold in the turn of 527 00:26:54,227 --> 00:26:56,427 Speaker 3: meter dash at the Paralympics. But more of your course 528 00:26:56,467 --> 00:27:00,627 Speaker 3: on the all Blacks right here, right now, Bruce High. 529 00:27:00,547 --> 00:27:04,507 Speaker 19: There you're going one thing that no one's talked about 530 00:27:04,747 --> 00:27:08,787 Speaker 19: is Aman McKenzie thing. I agree with, we just either 531 00:27:08,787 --> 00:27:10,747 Speaker 19: have to live with him or try something different. But 532 00:27:10,747 --> 00:27:12,867 Speaker 19: he's not going to be the answer. Everyone sort of 533 00:27:12,867 --> 00:27:15,707 Speaker 19: agree to that. But I think it's a combination of 534 00:27:15,787 --> 00:27:18,107 Speaker 19: him not being the answer and then people like Tyrel 535 00:27:18,187 --> 00:27:22,147 Speaker 19: Lomax doing it like a schoolboy bonehead move in kind 536 00:27:22,187 --> 00:27:24,027 Speaker 19: of sixty thousand people right at the end of the 537 00:27:24,027 --> 00:27:27,107 Speaker 19: game and getting yellow carded by obstructing Kolby. 538 00:27:27,187 --> 00:27:28,787 Speaker 2: That was but could you put that down? 539 00:27:29,347 --> 00:27:29,587 Speaker 18: It was? 540 00:27:29,627 --> 00:27:31,267 Speaker 3: But could you put that on the fact that he 541 00:27:31,507 --> 00:27:33,387 Speaker 3: is a prop He was on the field maybe far 542 00:27:33,467 --> 00:27:36,267 Speaker 3: too long, and that was a direct result of him 543 00:27:36,267 --> 00:27:39,067 Speaker 3: being gassed. He was tired. I don't think he did 544 00:27:39,107 --> 00:27:42,347 Speaker 3: that deliberately. I think he was tired. He was lazy, 545 00:27:42,827 --> 00:27:44,427 Speaker 3: That's what that So did. 546 00:27:44,347 --> 00:27:44,747 Speaker 11: They get it? 547 00:27:44,787 --> 00:27:45,907 Speaker 3: Did they get him out earlier? 548 00:27:47,067 --> 00:27:49,347 Speaker 19: The possibly? But that was a definite left move. You 549 00:27:49,347 --> 00:27:52,347 Speaker 19: look at the replays. He definitely moved left because Colby 550 00:27:52,427 --> 00:27:56,427 Speaker 19: is such a dangerous player and he was you know anyway, 551 00:27:56,427 --> 00:27:56,787 Speaker 19: but when. 552 00:27:56,707 --> 00:27:58,427 Speaker 3: You're tired, you make poor decisions, don't you. 553 00:27:59,467 --> 00:28:02,107 Speaker 19: Good point, but so just I know you go through 554 00:28:02,147 --> 00:28:04,987 Speaker 19: us quickly. But the other thing, if they're so focused 555 00:28:05,027 --> 00:28:08,107 Speaker 19: on kicking close and stuff. The ones that hit really 556 00:28:08,307 --> 00:28:11,147 Speaker 19: kicks me off is the Box. When they come to 557 00:28:11,187 --> 00:28:13,227 Speaker 19: a line out, they transfler the game down. They take 558 00:28:13,507 --> 00:28:15,467 Speaker 19: thirty seconds to get to a line out, but at 559 00:28:15,467 --> 00:28:17,067 Speaker 19: the end of the game when they're behind, they get 560 00:28:17,067 --> 00:28:19,587 Speaker 19: there instantly. I reckon there should be a clock on 561 00:28:19,627 --> 00:28:22,147 Speaker 19: a line out as well as clocking on everything else, 562 00:28:22,187 --> 00:28:23,307 Speaker 19: half backs and everything else. 563 00:28:23,667 --> 00:28:27,147 Speaker 3: Game management. They take whatever opportunity and chance they can. 564 00:28:27,507 --> 00:28:30,227 Speaker 3: And I mean you look back at the great Richie mccaun, 565 00:28:30,227 --> 00:28:32,347 Speaker 3: people's like a cheats is he know what he does 566 00:28:32,987 --> 00:28:35,427 Speaker 3: because he pushes the law as fast as he can. 567 00:28:35,507 --> 00:28:37,787 Speaker 3: He pushes it as close to the line as possible, 568 00:28:38,187 --> 00:28:39,867 Speaker 3: and that's what he did so well. So you've got 569 00:28:39,907 --> 00:28:41,827 Speaker 3: to give credit to the spring Box. They can get 570 00:28:41,867 --> 00:28:42,227 Speaker 3: away with. 571 00:28:42,187 --> 00:28:45,387 Speaker 19: It, right. It's a combination of McKenzie knocking the right 572 00:28:45,387 --> 00:28:47,907 Speaker 19: guy and then when we had in the corner we 573 00:28:48,107 --> 00:28:51,907 Speaker 19: knocked the ball on and you know, just small errors 574 00:28:52,187 --> 00:28:54,747 Speaker 19: under pressure that the bricks never used to do, and 575 00:28:54,787 --> 00:28:57,267 Speaker 19: the combination of McKenzie not being the right guy. Thanks 576 00:28:57,307 --> 00:28:59,227 Speaker 19: to your time, mate, well good good talk back. 577 00:28:59,107 --> 00:29:01,747 Speaker 3: And Bruce, thanks very much for participating.

I mean that was the 595 00:29:58,707 --> 00:30:02,267 Speaker 4: most painful three am wake up that I've had for 596 00:30:02,307 --> 00:30:05,747 Speaker 4: a long time. And I think that gave Yeah. I 597 00:30:05,787 --> 00:30:07,747 Speaker 4: think they could the ghost the All Black said. But 598 00:30:07,827 --> 00:30:10,187 Speaker 4: one of the things I liked that I saw when 599 00:30:10,187 --> 00:30:12,387 Speaker 4: they were having passages of play, even though they were 600 00:30:12,427 --> 00:30:15,987 Speaker 4: fumbling and dropping you can see a new technical back 601 00:30:16,067 --> 00:30:18,947 Speaker 4: line coming in, like some of the cross passes and 602 00:30:19,107 --> 00:30:21,347 Speaker 4: everything that they were doing. And then I was really 603 00:30:21,387 --> 00:30:25,267 Speaker 4: thinking about South Africa and South Africa is rarely the 604 00:30:25,307 --> 00:30:28,787 Speaker 4: ghost because they're now a Northern Hemisphere teape. They play 605 00:30:28,787 --> 00:30:31,907 Speaker 4: in Northern Hemisphere rugby most of the time. That's where 606 00:30:31,907 --> 00:30:36,147 Speaker 4: all their you know, super level games are played. 607 00:30:38,027 --> 00:30:38,387 Speaker 11: Kind of. 608 00:30:40,187 --> 00:30:40,427 Speaker 20: They do. 609 00:30:40,787 --> 00:30:43,667 Speaker 4: That was what the Southern Hemisphere held over the Northern 610 00:30:43,667 --> 00:30:47,347 Speaker 4: Hemisphere for decades was that we were so tight in 611 00:30:47,427 --> 00:30:50,387 Speaker 4: that South Africa, Australia and New Zealand that no one 612 00:30:50,427 --> 00:30:53,707 Speaker 4: really knew how he played. And Scott Robertson, My only 613 00:30:53,747 --> 00:30:57,227 Speaker 4: point really is Scott Robertson pointed out at the very 614 00:30:57,267 --> 00:30:59,627 Speaker 4: beginning of his tenure, before he even set foot on 615 00:30:59,627 --> 00:31:03,027 Speaker 4: the field with his team, he said, we need to 616 00:31:03,027 --> 00:31:05,507 Speaker 4: be able to get our players that are playing and 617 00:31:05,867 --> 00:31:08,867 Speaker 4: internet competitions back to New Zealand and we need to 618 00:31:08,867 --> 00:31:12,707 Speaker 4: scrub away with us role of if you're not playing locally, 619 00:31:13,147 --> 00:31:16,307 Speaker 4: you can't play for our national team. And I think 620 00:31:16,307 --> 00:31:19,867 Speaker 4: that South Africa they're in the best of both worlds. 621 00:31:19,907 --> 00:31:22,947 Speaker 4: They know how Southern Hemisphere rugby works very well. But 622 00:31:22,987 --> 00:31:25,987 Speaker 4: they're also very deep into the dish and understanding how 623 00:31:26,067 --> 00:31:28,227 Speaker 4: Northern Hemisphere rugby works now too. 624 00:31:28,667 --> 00:31:30,627 Speaker 3: James, you make a couple of really good points. I'm 625 00:31:30,627 --> 00:31:32,667 Speaker 3: sorry to drop. We've got heaps of calls to get 626 00:31:32,707 --> 00:31:35,067 Speaker 3: through in so little time.

But yeah, Michael, it 634 00:31:49,987 --> 00:31:52,027 Speaker 3: was something else. And we're talking to the guy who 635 00:31:52,067 --> 00:31:55,307 Speaker 3: basically won the game. Coming up? What time are we 636 00:31:55,347 --> 00:31:59,067 Speaker 3: going to do? About past one?

I got up at 660 00:33:03,147 --> 00:33:05,827 Speaker 21: three am to watch it. 661 00:33:05,827 --> 00:33:06,867 Speaker 22: Actually, callers are. 662 00:33:06,787 --> 00:33:08,907 Speaker 21: Bringing up some good points that I hadn't thought about 663 00:33:08,947 --> 00:33:12,747 Speaker 21: too while I've been listening about maybe have we got 664 00:33:12,787 --> 00:33:15,067 Speaker 21: a game running, you know, a game player in that 665 00:33:15,227 --> 00:33:20,107 Speaker 21: throust five? Now is themat capable of doing that? Maybe not? Well, 666 00:33:20,187 --> 00:33:22,387 Speaker 21: maybe time will tell. Molves Early in and when I 667 00:33:22,427 --> 00:33:25,867 Speaker 21: listened to the break the panel afterwards was said, maybe 668 00:33:25,867 --> 00:33:27,747 Speaker 21: we just got to face the fact that, you know, 669 00:33:28,067 --> 00:33:30,947 Speaker 21: we've just got to take a couple of years for 670 00:33:30,987 --> 00:33:33,707 Speaker 21: this all black team to geel and get to where 671 00:33:33,747 --> 00:33:36,307 Speaker 21: we were, you know, because it's a new process and 672 00:33:36,347 --> 00:33:41,787 Speaker 21: we're learning. But yeah, what was what I found frustrating 673 00:33:41,867 --> 00:33:45,107 Speaker 21: was like I thought, I actually thought that they played 674 00:33:45,107 --> 00:33:47,867 Speaker 21: better last week in the harder conditions in terms of 675 00:33:47,907 --> 00:33:50,467 Speaker 21: the higher altitude, and as soon as that game started, 676 00:33:50,507 --> 00:33:52,587 Speaker 21: I just thought, oh, we're going to be struggling to 677 00:33:52,627 --> 00:33:55,867 Speaker 21: win this one. And throughout the game. One of the 678 00:33:55,907 --> 00:33:59,187 Speaker 21: things interesting about saying about the attack coach, you know, 679 00:33:59,307 --> 00:34:02,307 Speaker 21: in the situation with McDonald even and looking at our attack, 680 00:34:02,387 --> 00:34:05,587 Speaker 21: because at times we looked like we were going to 681 00:34:05,627 --> 00:34:07,427 Speaker 21: break through, but we just couldn't. And then they got 682 00:34:07,467 --> 00:34:10,307 Speaker 21: frustrated and tried to throw those fifty to fifty passes 683 00:34:10,387 --> 00:34:13,507 Speaker 21: quick to create something that really quick and hope. But 684 00:34:14,027 --> 00:34:15,787 Speaker 21: a lot of the time too, I noticed last night 685 00:34:15,867 --> 00:34:19,667 Speaker 21: made it so frustrating was when we were on attack, 686 00:34:20,827 --> 00:34:23,267 Speaker 21: a lot of time we bumbled the last pass or 687 00:34:23,267 --> 00:34:23,827 Speaker 21: fumbled it. 688 00:34:23,907 --> 00:34:24,107 Speaker 19: You know. 689 00:34:24,147 --> 00:34:25,707 Speaker 21: There was the time when we were right up while 690 00:34:25,707 --> 00:34:29,027 Speaker 21: their goal line. Is just one example. Yeah, when one 691 00:34:29,067 --> 00:34:31,427 Speaker 21: Barrett brother threw the throw the ball to the other 692 00:34:31,427 --> 00:34:33,187 Speaker 21: Barrett brother and it hit him in the chest or 693 00:34:33,187 --> 00:34:34,867 Speaker 21: the face or falcon it, you know, because he was 694 00:34:34,907 --> 00:34:37,627 Speaker 21: didn't even expecting it. And just things like that happened 695 00:34:37,947 --> 00:34:39,147 Speaker 21: all throughout that game. 696 00:34:40,907 --> 00:34:44,147 Speaker 3: TJ Parrenara Petty Nara to Barrett. I'm not because I 697 00:34:44,147 --> 00:34:48,187 Speaker 3: heard Barrett and Barrett when on the commentary, But regardless, 698 00:34:48,227 --> 00:34:50,827 Speaker 3: it doesn't matter. I appreciate. I know what you're saying, Phil, 699 00:34:50,867 --> 00:34:54,027 Speaker 3: and that that accuracy, which I've been banging on about 700 00:34:54,027 --> 00:34:57,147 Speaker 3: for twenty years, was a huge difference from the All 701 00:34:57,187 --> 00:35:00,827 Speaker 3: Blacks and other teams. And if you can't seal that 702 00:35:00,947 --> 00:35:04,467 Speaker 3: at key moments, not going to win the pressure that 703 00:35:04,507 --> 00:35:08,227 Speaker 3: the opposition put on you. You can apply that concept 704 00:35:08,267 --> 00:35:13,467 Speaker 3: of accuracy successfully, It's huge. That's what the South Africans do. 705 00:35:13,867 --> 00:35:15,987 Speaker 3: Your decision making us to be so fast, you're actually 706 00:35:16,107 --> 00:35:19,107 Speaker 3: so on point, and in those cases it's not great. 707 00:35:19,147 --> 00:35:26,347 Speaker 3: Martin and I well, Martin, have you deserted me? There 708 00:35:26,387 --> 00:35:28,667 Speaker 3: we go, Martin, lay it on the line. What have 709 00:35:28,707 --> 00:35:29,107 Speaker 3: you got? 710 00:35:30,027 --> 00:35:30,507 Speaker 14: Oh yeah? 711 00:35:30,587 --> 00:35:35,027 Speaker 23: Interesting? I think you know, I think some caller is 712 00:35:35,027 --> 00:35:37,467 Speaker 23: a bit harsh and on McKenzie, I think it's time 713 00:35:37,547 --> 00:35:41,587 Speaker 23: and the seven he needs, and I think, you know, 714 00:35:41,987 --> 00:35:44,027 Speaker 23: we're going to take some positives out of the game. 715 00:35:45,227 --> 00:35:48,107 Speaker 23: You know, I thought the first time up, I thought 716 00:35:48,147 --> 00:35:50,347 Speaker 23: he had a tremendous game Okay, he might have missed 717 00:35:50,387 --> 00:35:53,227 Speaker 23: one tingle be on the side there down the blind side, 718 00:35:53,267 --> 00:35:56,747 Speaker 23: but you know, in general he ran hard. I thought, bye, 719 00:35:57,147 --> 00:35:59,787 Speaker 23: he had and I thought he had a great day. 720 00:36:00,027 --> 00:36:02,947 Speaker 3: He really is looking the goods, isn't he. I mean 721 00:36:02,987 --> 00:36:05,467 Speaker 3: patch of twee plowto gone. But but he's really grown 722 00:36:05,507 --> 00:36:06,147 Speaker 3: into that role. 723 00:36:07,227 --> 00:36:08,107 Speaker 14: I fully agree. 724 00:36:08,147 --> 00:36:10,547 Speaker 23: And I think, you know, there'll be a few callers 725 00:36:10,587 --> 00:36:13,667 Speaker 23: out your you know, schoolwards would be thinking I was 726 00:36:13,787 --> 00:36:16,347 Speaker 23: value the man, But you know what, he's grown into it, 727 00:36:16,387 --> 00:36:20,067 Speaker 23: and I think I think that's exciting. I think, you know, 728 00:36:20,347 --> 00:36:23,627 Speaker 23: as you say, it's hard over there, and I just think, look, 729 00:36:23,947 --> 00:36:25,227 Speaker 23: we're not that far away. 730 00:36:25,387 --> 00:36:25,587 Speaker 11: You know. 731 00:36:26,907 --> 00:36:27,787 Speaker 19: I think low mix. 732 00:36:27,827 --> 00:36:30,707 Speaker 23: I think what you pointed out fatigue, I think that 733 00:36:30,867 --> 00:36:31,587 Speaker 23: was a fact of it. 734 00:36:31,827 --> 00:36:32,267 Speaker 19: Deafinitely. 735 00:36:32,307 --> 00:36:36,587 Speaker 23: I think he should have been pulled probably five minutes earlier. Penalty. 736 00:36:36,987 --> 00:36:39,387 Speaker 23: He gave a way a penalty down down in their 737 00:36:39,867 --> 00:36:43,347 Speaker 23: twenty two clapped and I think he should have been 738 00:36:43,347 --> 00:36:46,987 Speaker 23: pulled then. So I don't understand why they didn't clear. 739 00:36:47,667 --> 00:36:49,227 Speaker 23: You know, they had three more on the bench. I 740 00:36:49,307 --> 00:36:52,227 Speaker 23: know what happened the previous week, but I mean, hey, 741 00:36:52,787 --> 00:36:54,827 Speaker 23: that's what it's about. I mean, you've got to give 742 00:36:54,867 --> 00:36:58,067 Speaker 23: these guys time pressure, you know, on the field. 743 00:36:58,827 --> 00:37:00,467 Speaker 14: So you know what I'm not. 744 00:37:01,267 --> 00:37:04,627 Speaker 23: You know, I'm not too upset by the result. I mean, 745 00:37:04,987 --> 00:37:07,467 Speaker 23: all I see is that I think we're going forward, 746 00:37:07,507 --> 00:37:09,307 Speaker 23: and I think that's the most important thing. 747 00:37:09,387 --> 00:37:14,147 Speaker 3: Martin lovely positivity. It's a whip, it's a work in progress. 748 00:37:14,307 --> 00:37:19,347 Speaker 3: So summarize some texts shortly just before one o'clock, Carl, 749 00:37:20,307 --> 00:37:20,707 Speaker 3: give it. 750 00:37:22,787 --> 00:37:23,947 Speaker 11: Haven't go good? 751 00:37:25,947 --> 00:37:29,267 Speaker 22: I just want to how many of you listeners know 752 00:37:29,347 --> 00:37:31,907 Speaker 22: what position Boden Bear it played when he got planner 753 00:37:31,907 --> 00:37:40,387 Speaker 22: in the year?

Give mccrack I can't do any worse 757 00:37:49,787 --> 00:37:52,587 Speaker 22: than what they've done. Of what's raiser As somebody said, 758 00:37:52,627 --> 00:37:56,307 Speaker 22: he's just supposed he's lost three games. Get Bear a 759 00:37:56,347 --> 00:37:59,587 Speaker 22: shot put mckensey. Beck's bringing it on you counter attacking, 760 00:37:59,627 --> 00:38:01,267 Speaker 22: and get Will Dordan back on the wing. 761 00:38:01,747 --> 00:38:03,627 Speaker 3: Well, there's a lot of things to think about, Carl. 762 00:38:03,667 --> 00:38:06,747 Speaker 3: And the sad thing about this is that the next 763 00:38:06,907 --> 00:38:09,827 Speaker 3: team that they're playing, and the Wallabies, and we're not 764 00:38:09,907 --> 00:38:14,747 Speaker 3: going to learn anything. Waller Bees were on a bit 765 00:38:14,747 --> 00:38:16,627 Speaker 3: of a tear for the first half and then they 766 00:38:16,667 --> 00:38:19,587 Speaker 3: got rolled by Argentina. Now Argentina are a good team. 767 00:38:19,627 --> 00:38:22,507 Speaker 3: They beat us. They ain't me wrong, but I don't 768 00:38:22,547 --> 00:38:25,547 Speaker 3: know if the Wallabies have got anything. So we'll play 769 00:38:25,587 --> 00:38:29,187 Speaker 3: them and we'll retain the letters loow Cup and everyone. 770 00:38:29,227 --> 00:38:30,907 Speaker 3: I'll go, we're back on the right track again, but 771 00:38:31,147 --> 00:38:33,667 Speaker 3: yet really against the tenth best team in the world. 772 00:38:34,707 --> 00:38:38,787 Speaker 3: Not looking good. Quick text summary because someone said, why 773 00:38:38,827 --> 00:38:40,867 Speaker 3: don't you just summarize the text, get someone else to 774 00:38:40,907 --> 00:38:44,827 Speaker 3: read it. We haven't got enough staff really work hard 775 00:38:44,827 --> 00:38:48,187 Speaker 3: at a McDonald. I'll summarize the text for you. People 776 00:38:48,187 --> 00:38:52,027 Speaker 3: are ripping on Damien McKenzie. They really are in the text, 777 00:38:52,067 --> 00:38:54,667 Speaker 3: and I won't read them verbatim because some of them 778 00:38:54,667 --> 00:38:58,427 Speaker 3: are a wee bit nasty. There's a lot talking about 779 00:38:58,547 --> 00:39:01,987 Speaker 3: Muanga and saying he really wasn't all that anyway, and 780 00:39:02,067 --> 00:39:04,467 Speaker 3: he made his own decision to go overseas so he 781 00:39:04,507 --> 00:39:07,387 Speaker 3: didn't get drop kicked by the union. He went over 782 00:39:07,427 --> 00:39:09,987 Speaker 3: for money to feed his family, and good on him. 783 00:39:09,987 --> 00:39:12,827 Speaker 3: It's one that says, look, Hoskins Setutu should have been 784 00:39:12,827 --> 00:39:15,307 Speaker 3: in the side that was a big mistake that he 785 00:39:15,347 --> 00:39:19,787 Speaker 3: would have matched the strength of the bock Ford's fair court. 786 00:39:20,027 --> 00:39:22,547 Speaker 3: All I can say is go the poolas see some 787 00:39:22,587 --> 00:39:27,107 Speaker 3: awesome rugby in this morning camera. Reguard makes a difference. 788 00:39:27,147 --> 00:39:30,147 Speaker 3: A few texts have said that other people have defended 789 00:39:30,227 --> 00:39:34,387 Speaker 3: Mackenzie saying, look, this is one particular text. The root 790 00:39:34,427 --> 00:39:37,107 Speaker 3: causes a poor decision making by the coach and the 791 00:39:37,147 --> 00:39:40,067 Speaker 3: initial selection and the use of the bench. You can't 792 00:39:40,147 --> 00:39:43,907 Speaker 3: lay it all on Mackenzie. That speak of mental blocks 793 00:39:44,027 --> 00:39:47,907 Speaker 3: in the all black teams and talk of Ian Foster 794 00:39:48,507 --> 00:39:51,587 Speaker 3: and how he must be feeling right now after he 795 00:39:51,667 --> 00:39:56,587 Speaker 3: got well pillared by everybody after his results and looking 796 00:39:56,627 --> 00:39:59,467 Speaker 3: down to Braser and going whoa. But it's not a 797 00:39:59,507 --> 00:40:01,827 Speaker 3: case of bringing back Fozzy raises it from now on. 798 00:40:01,907 --> 00:40:05,227 Speaker 3: He's got four more years so we've got to run 799 00:40:05,267 --> 00:40:09,427 Speaker 3: with it right.

I would have been over the moon 878 00:44:34,147 --> 00:44:35,827 Speaker 25: with just that time and for it. 879 00:44:35,747 --> 00:44:38,707 Speaker 3: To be a gold is incredible and Oceania record I 880 00:44:38,747 --> 00:44:41,987 Speaker 3: believe in oh so close to a world record too. 881 00:44:42,387 --> 00:44:44,787 Speaker 25: No, I can't believe that actually that time, that that 882 00:44:44,907 --> 00:44:46,987 Speaker 25: time's crazy, like the time from this morning. I was 883 00:44:47,027 --> 00:44:49,827 Speaker 25: incredibly shocked and like proud with that. And then I 884 00:44:50,067 --> 00:44:53,107 Speaker 25: knew that I'd slowed down, and so I guess just 885 00:44:53,187 --> 00:44:57,027 Speaker 25: trusting that I had to give everything tonight and that 886 00:44:57,107 --> 00:45:00,547 Speaker 25: I could give everything I'd trained for this, and I 887 00:45:00,627 --> 00:45:04,107 Speaker 25: knew that I me as a person, my personality wouldn't 888 00:45:04,107 --> 00:45:06,627 Speaker 25: even let this opportunity get away with that in a 889 00:45:06,667 --> 00:45:09,467 Speaker 25: really good crack, And yeah, that's what we did. 890 00:45:09,907 --> 00:45:12,227 Speaker 3: So you knew toward the end that you were winning 891 00:45:12,267 --> 00:45:15,467 Speaker 3: the race? What about round the Beam? Did that flick 892 00:45:15,587 --> 00:45:18,867 Speaker 3: through your thought? Like, hold on, I'm in the lead here, 893 00:45:19,027 --> 00:45:20,267 Speaker 3: talk us through that period? 894 00:45:21,027 --> 00:45:23,467 Speaker 25: Yeah, for sure, I think, like to be honest, like 895 00:45:23,507 --> 00:45:25,227 Speaker 25: we were talking about it in the middle area and 896 00:45:25,267 --> 00:45:26,987 Speaker 25: we were saying like we could have been the only 897 00:45:27,027 --> 00:45:29,347 Speaker 25: ones on the track, Like it felt like it was silent, 898 00:45:29,427 --> 00:45:31,427 Speaker 25: but I know it was so loud because the crowd 899 00:45:31,507 --> 00:45:36,267 Speaker 25: is incredible, And I think, yeah, I think I knew 900 00:45:36,307 --> 00:45:37,707 Speaker 25: just as we were coming off the ben that I 901 00:45:37,787 --> 00:45:39,867 Speaker 25: was in the front. But it's like, not a time 902 00:45:39,867 --> 00:45:42,227 Speaker 25: to get complacent. These girls have probably ran far more 903 00:45:42,227 --> 00:45:44,907 Speaker 25: twos than I have. And I also didn't really know 904 00:45:44,987 --> 00:45:47,067 Speaker 25: what my body was capable of. I knew that it 905 00:45:47,107 --> 00:45:49,347 Speaker 25: could blow up, like I'm used to running thirty minutes 906 00:45:49,427 --> 00:45:51,267 Speaker 25: six times and with a jump. 907 00:45:51,027 --> 00:45:52,947 Speaker 24: At the end, and so you never know, like am 908 00:45:52,987 --> 00:45:55,347 Speaker 24: I going to make it to the end, But you 909 00:45:55,547 --> 00:45:58,707 Speaker 24: know I knew I was and with a shot. 910 00:45:58,747 --> 00:46:01,787 Speaker 25: If I could get in the lead hitting onto the strait, 911 00:46:01,867 --> 00:46:04,387 Speaker 25: or even not in the lead, I could be up 912 00:46:04,427 --> 00:46:05,867 Speaker 25: near the leader, I'd have a shot it. 913 00:46:06,107 --> 00:46:10,147 Speaker 3: When Yeah, Paralympic turned to meet a gold Medalistan Grimaldi 914 00:46:10,227 --> 00:46:13,307 Speaker 3: joining us, tell us about the time between when the 915 00:46:13,707 --> 00:46:17,827 Speaker 3: qualifying finished and the race itself actually started. That would 916 00:46:17,827 --> 00:46:21,747 Speaker 3: have been a very interesting period to be in your head. 917 00:46:22,107 --> 00:46:23,067 Speaker 3: What did you go through? 918 00:46:23,467 --> 00:46:26,267 Speaker 25: Yeah, I think it's been funny because I haven't really 919 00:46:26,867 --> 00:46:27,787 Speaker 25: ran that many two's. 920 00:46:28,947 --> 00:46:31,227 Speaker 24: I ran them earlier. 921 00:46:30,867 --> 00:46:32,827 Speaker 25: On in my career, and then I broke my foot 922 00:46:32,827 --> 00:46:34,907 Speaker 25: the last time I tried to run one professionally at 923 00:46:34,907 --> 00:46:38,867 Speaker 25: the game at a World Champs, and we decided I'd 924 00:46:38,987 --> 00:46:40,987 Speaker 25: even do them again, So she just threw it out. 925 00:46:40,827 --> 00:46:41,347 Speaker 24: Of my mind. 926 00:46:41,507 --> 00:46:43,827 Speaker 25: And then last year's World Champs rolled around and I 927 00:46:43,867 --> 00:46:46,627 Speaker 25: remember watching the final and going, you know what, I 928 00:46:46,667 --> 00:46:49,107 Speaker 25: think it's time to have that conversation about maybe doing 929 00:46:49,147 --> 00:46:51,427 Speaker 25: the two hundred again, and my coach was fully on board, 930 00:46:53,627 --> 00:46:56,467 Speaker 25: and I think this morning I was quite nervous because 931 00:46:56,467 --> 00:46:58,827 Speaker 25: I actually didn't know what I was capable of running. 932 00:46:58,827 --> 00:47:01,387 Speaker 25: I mean, I knew I was probably a pretty good 933 00:47:01,467 --> 00:47:04,347 Speaker 25: knock after that one hundred, and to be the now 934 00:47:05,627 --> 00:47:09,227 Speaker 25: in a position and after that, after that first race, 935 00:47:09,907 --> 00:47:12,027 Speaker 25: I think it just instilled a lot of confidence in 936 00:47:12,307 --> 00:47:14,507 Speaker 25: me that I knew that put me in a race 937 00:47:14,547 --> 00:47:17,547 Speaker 25: with anyone, and I will fight till I can't buy 938 00:47:17,587 --> 00:47:20,947 Speaker 25: any more to get to the line. And yeah, I mean, 939 00:47:21,347 --> 00:47:24,107 Speaker 25: I just think it relaxed me because I now knew 940 00:47:24,147 --> 00:47:26,147 Speaker 25: how fast second I could run, and. 941 00:47:27,507 --> 00:47:29,707 Speaker 24: Yeah, and then then faster again, which is even crazier. 942 00:47:30,107 --> 00:47:32,347 Speaker 3: What happens now? Do you drop everything else and just 943 00:47:32,427 --> 00:47:34,587 Speaker 3: become a sol two hundred meters specialist. 944 00:47:35,107 --> 00:47:37,867 Speaker 24: Yeah, I don't know. No, I don't know at the moment. 945 00:47:37,907 --> 00:47:43,947 Speaker 25: I'm on holiday already and I'll be obviously well reflect 946 00:47:44,027 --> 00:47:44,707 Speaker 25: on everything. 947 00:47:44,747 --> 00:47:45,867 Speaker 24: I mean the long time. 948 00:47:45,947 --> 00:47:49,307 Speaker 25: Yesterday was really hard for me because because that's my 949 00:47:49,387 --> 00:47:51,347 Speaker 25: bread and butter, that's what I love to do and 950 00:47:51,627 --> 00:47:53,307 Speaker 25: what I'm good at as well, and it was just 951 00:47:53,347 --> 00:47:54,987 Speaker 25: hard to not be able to show up the way 952 00:47:55,027 --> 00:47:58,827 Speaker 25: I wanted to yesterday. But I got so many incredible, 953 00:47:59,187 --> 00:48:04,507 Speaker 25: incredibly supporting and loving comments yesterday and messages and just 954 00:48:04,987 --> 00:48:07,587 Speaker 25: from people I don't even know, so just saying how 955 00:48:07,627 --> 00:48:11,267 Speaker 25: proud of me they were, And I think that really 956 00:48:11,267 --> 00:48:15,627 Speaker 25: spurred me on for this, hearing that everyone you know, 957 00:48:15,987 --> 00:48:19,227 Speaker 25: still was interested in me, still believed in me, regardless 958 00:48:19,227 --> 00:48:20,227 Speaker 25: of how I did in the long jump. 959 00:48:20,307 --> 00:48:23,347 Speaker 3: So yeah, after that long jump, you'd be harder on 960 00:48:23,387 --> 00:48:27,027 Speaker 3: yourself than anybody possibly could be. So when you went 961 00:48:27,107 --> 00:48:30,347 Speaker 3: into the ton of meters, was it a case of 962 00:48:30,827 --> 00:48:33,987 Speaker 3: revenge for the long jump? Jumping through your mind? 963 00:48:34,707 --> 00:48:37,867 Speaker 25: I did say revenge, and I mean I wanted revenge 964 00:48:37,867 --> 00:48:40,987 Speaker 25: on the two hundred race. The last two races I ran, 965 00:48:41,107 --> 00:48:43,107 Speaker 25: I ran in Rio and I stepped on the line 966 00:48:43,107 --> 00:48:46,667 Speaker 25: and got disqualified and then my last two hundred race 967 00:48:46,907 --> 00:48:53,387 Speaker 25: at a Champs was in London the year after, and and. 968 00:48:51,987 --> 00:48:52,947 Speaker 24: And I broke my foot. 969 00:48:53,067 --> 00:48:54,867 Speaker 25: I mean, I'd been having trouble with my foot, but 970 00:48:54,947 --> 00:48:57,707 Speaker 25: it really gave out mid race. And so I knew 971 00:48:57,987 --> 00:48:59,827 Speaker 25: I loved doing the two hundred back then, and I 972 00:48:59,907 --> 00:49:01,867 Speaker 25: knew I wanted to eventually do it. But we did 973 00:49:01,907 --> 00:49:04,147 Speaker 25: just take it off the cards, like we decided. We 974 00:49:04,227 --> 00:49:08,587 Speaker 25: decided to we decided to not run it ever again, 975 00:49:08,707 --> 00:49:11,147 Speaker 25: like that was it. We'd signed it off.

In 1303 01:06:21,187 --> 01:06:25,627 Speaker 3: the piece the wake Up a women leading, Wake Up Women, 1304 01:06:25,747 --> 01:06:29,587 Speaker 3: excuse me? Leading the Hawks bay twoy thirty nine to twelve. 1305 01:06:29,947 --> 01:06:34,387 Speaker 3: We're in the sixty third minute of that game. We've 1306 01:06:34,387 --> 01:06:39,707 Speaker 3: got a few more texts have come in around various subjects. 1307 01:06:39,747 --> 01:06:42,307 Speaker 3: I'd love it if you're joining, and so honestly, Sky 1308 01:06:42,387 --> 01:06:44,947 Speaker 3: Sport are hopeless at not showing the all Whites games anymore. 1309 01:06:45,147 --> 01:06:48,627 Speaker 3: Fever TV are hopeless and it goes on and on 1310 01:06:48,667 --> 01:06:50,787 Speaker 3: and on. Are know that bad? FEVA? Plus I don't know. 1311 01:06:50,827 --> 01:06:52,907 Speaker 3: I don't watch a lot of football. I think it's 1312 01:06:52,947 --> 01:06:55,627 Speaker 3: on the TV up here. It seems to be working fine. 1313 01:06:55,827 --> 01:06:58,467 Speaker 3: At least you can get it right. Maybe you just 1314 01:06:58,507 --> 01:07:00,867 Speaker 3: need to get your daughter or your son to climb 1315 01:07:00,907 --> 01:07:04,027 Speaker 3: on board and show you how to log on to 1316 01:07:04,147 --> 01:07:07,667 Speaker 3: these things. Other texts still around what happened in the 1317 01:07:07,787 --> 01:07:12,907 Speaker 3: Rugby last night? It's okay to admit you and the 1318 01:07:12,947 --> 01:07:16,107 Speaker 3: one eyed guys got it wrong. Even the lambs are 1319 01:07:16,147 --> 01:07:19,187 Speaker 3: crying out for the knife to be wielded. A hope. 1320 01:07:19,267 --> 01:07:25,027 Speaker 3: Joe Schmidt doesn't ask Leon to come on over. I 1321 01:07:25,067 --> 01:07:29,387 Speaker 3: think that is premature, I really do. And I don't 1322 01:07:29,467 --> 01:07:32,267 Speaker 3: think people were calling out for Fozzy's head for quite 1323 01:07:32,267 --> 01:07:36,627 Speaker 3: some time. They did eventually, but this is still very 1324 01:07:36,667 --> 01:07:39,787 Speaker 3: early doors And we had a caller in the first 1325 01:07:39,827 --> 01:07:44,587 Speaker 3: hour talking about the association with the coaching staff and 1326 01:07:44,627 --> 01:07:46,787 Speaker 3: the team and how long it actually takes to bed 1327 01:07:46,867 --> 01:07:50,907 Speaker 3: that in until you buy into someone's narrative and how 1328 01:07:50,947 --> 01:07:53,867 Speaker 3: they coach and what they expect. And you remember the 1329 01:07:54,027 --> 01:07:57,907 Speaker 3: succession plans that ran right the way through the All 1330 01:07:57,907 --> 01:08:01,547 Speaker 3: Blacks for many, many, many years. So the assistant came 1331 01:08:01,627 --> 01:08:05,587 Speaker 3: in as the head coach and everybody knew what was 1332 01:08:05,627 --> 01:08:08,387 Speaker 3: expected because they've been working under them before, and that 1333 01:08:08,547 --> 01:08:11,947 Speaker 3: went right the way through Henri to Hanson to Foster. 1334 01:08:12,507 --> 01:08:15,707 Speaker 3: This is a new broom, So I think you've got 1335 01:08:15,747 --> 01:08:20,187 Speaker 3: to give them some time. And hey, it's South Africa. 1336 01:08:20,267 --> 01:08:23,707 Speaker 3: In South Africa, they're the world champions. They are on fire, 1337 01:08:23,827 --> 01:08:27,547 Speaker 3: they're playing fantastic rugby. Yes, we hold them to a 1338 01:08:27,587 --> 01:08:31,027 Speaker 3: high standard. They are the All Blacks. They demand that 1339 01:08:32,307 --> 01:08:34,987 Speaker 3: by their results over the last one hundred years. Right, 1340 01:08:35,507 --> 01:08:38,307 Speaker 3: but we can still complain we're still a Loud's cut 1341 01:08:38,307 --> 01:08:40,667 Speaker 3: them a wee bit of slag. This is news talks, 1342 01:08:40,667 --> 01:08:44,107 Speaker 3: heb it is one at thirty six.

Thanks Jeremy. Nice to know that someone's putting 1354 01:09:19,627 --> 01:09:22,907 Speaker 3: the boot into something else rather than Damian McKenzie or 1355 01:09:22,947 --> 01:09:26,627 Speaker 3: Scott Robertson. That's saying when Auckland rugby is strong, New 1356 01:09:26,667 --> 01:09:29,027 Speaker 3: Zealand rugby is strong. A huge amount of time there 1357 01:09:29,067 --> 01:09:31,867 Speaker 3: when Auckland rugby was strong and New Zealand Rugby are 1358 01:09:31,867 --> 01:09:36,267 Speaker 3: like kind of third So maybe that's not entirely true, 1359 01:09:36,307 --> 01:09:38,547 Speaker 3: but yeah, Club Rugby and king or which sits on 1360 01:09:38,667 --> 01:09:43,107 Speaker 3: the down, although with the Wahina once suggest Club Rugby 1361 01:09:43,267 --> 01:09:46,227 Speaker 3: is the only place of growth right now. Anyway, enough 1362 01:09:46,227 --> 01:09:48,427 Speaker 3: of that, let's say I get on to James. We've 1363 01:09:48,587 --> 01:09:50,987 Speaker 3: found down the back of the couch today, mcconey, is 1364 01:09:50,987 --> 01:09:52,707 Speaker 3: that where you've been all these months? Don't try and 1365 01:09:52,707 --> 01:09:57,027 Speaker 3: tell me you've been overseas. 1366 01:09:55,427 --> 01:09:58,267 Speaker 14: A little bit of overseas and just down in Tadanak 1367 01:09:58,947 --> 01:10:04,507 Speaker 14: for a conductive education fundraiser. Incredible people are doing education 1368 01:10:04,667 --> 01:10:07,867 Speaker 14: for disabled kids. And Wayne Smith was one of the 1369 01:10:08,627 --> 01:10:12,587 Speaker 14: keynote speakers, and so some of my opinions this morning 1370 01:10:12,987 --> 01:10:14,707 Speaker 14: may be influenced by the professor. 1371 01:10:15,707 --> 01:10:17,307 Speaker 3: So we got them with you now just put them 1372 01:10:17,347 --> 01:10:17,947 Speaker 3: on the phone. 1373 01:10:18,947 --> 01:10:21,747 Speaker 14: Not exactly, it's a much better idea. And can I 1374 01:10:21,827 --> 01:10:25,307 Speaker 14: just give you some some kudos for the first part 1375 01:10:25,347 --> 01:10:28,667 Speaker 14: of the hour with Anna Grimaldi and then Campbell Patata, 1376 01:10:29,187 --> 01:10:32,867 Speaker 14: just absolute unbridled joy. So I'm guessing this is the 1377 01:10:32,867 --> 01:10:33,587 Speaker 14: miserable part. 1378 01:10:33,867 --> 01:10:36,667 Speaker 3: No, no, no, don't don't be smiling for me, James, 1379 01:10:36,707 --> 01:10:39,347 Speaker 3: you don't have to be miserable. You're not texting in 1380 01:10:39,667 --> 01:10:44,187 Speaker 3: come on, someone texts it and the naki is taking 1381 01:10:44,227 --> 01:10:47,107 Speaker 3: it from the muck or up the naki that's from 1382 01:10:47,307 --> 01:10:49,227 Speaker 3: chop So would you buy into that as well? Would 1383 01:10:49,267 --> 01:10:50,227 Speaker 3: you do? 1384 01:10:50,227 --> 01:10:50,627 Speaker 11: You know what? 1385 01:10:50,747 --> 01:10:52,707 Speaker 14: I love the shield so much. I had a quick 1386 01:10:52,747 --> 01:10:55,547 Speaker 14: look and thought if there was a one match tenure 1387 01:10:55,587 --> 01:10:58,547 Speaker 14: for the rest of the season, so it just keeps 1388 01:10:58,587 --> 01:11:01,227 Speaker 14: on going around. I think Otago ends up with it 1389 01:11:01,627 --> 01:11:05,227 Speaker 14: if everybody loses a first challenge. So there you go, who. 1390 01:11:05,067 --> 01:11:06,787 Speaker 3: Treats it the worst? And I'm not gonna go along 1391 01:11:06,787 --> 01:11:09,387 Speaker 3: this lines. Already did that with let's talk about what 1392 01:11:09,467 --> 01:11:12,787 Speaker 3: you want to talk about All Blacks South Africa. Shed 1393 01:11:12,827 --> 01:11:13,987 Speaker 3: some light on it, please. 1394 01:11:14,747 --> 01:11:17,107 Speaker 14: Yeah, well, I thought your call has made some great points, 1395 01:11:17,107 --> 01:11:19,307 Speaker 14: but I am going to zag where they have zig 1396 01:11:19,347 --> 01:11:22,187 Speaker 14: and I will actually stick up for Damien McKenzie, not 1397 01:11:22,307 --> 01:11:25,227 Speaker 14: because I'm a punishing Chiefs fan, but just because I 1398 01:11:25,267 --> 01:11:28,707 Speaker 14: think at first five there's a lot of nuances to 1399 01:11:28,747 --> 01:11:31,307 Speaker 14: that position. And I know that everyone goes on about 1400 01:11:31,347 --> 01:11:34,907 Speaker 14: game management and that's totally fair enough, but also in 1401 01:11:35,907 --> 01:11:38,707 Speaker 14: test matches of that magnitude of game management is that 1402 01:11:38,787 --> 01:11:41,347 Speaker 14: big a problem, then the coaches have to take some 1403 01:11:41,427 --> 01:11:45,667 Speaker 14: responsibility there because you watched that last quarter and I 1404 01:11:45,707 --> 01:11:49,827 Speaker 14: think there were several mistakes from a number of all blacks, 1405 01:11:49,507 --> 01:11:53,027 Speaker 14: including you know, great all blacks, and I don't think 1406 01:11:53,107 --> 01:11:55,547 Speaker 14: mackenzie apart from off the tee. Yes, I know that 1407 01:11:55,707 --> 01:11:57,867 Speaker 14: was a problem the kicking, but I don't think he 1408 01:11:58,027 --> 01:11:59,667 Speaker 14: was as a fault as many think. 1409 01:12:00,587 --> 01:12:04,347 Speaker 3: Well name them. You can't just throw muddet people and 1410 01:12:04,467 --> 01:12:06,907 Speaker 3: not name them. Who are the great all Blacks? Are 1411 01:12:06,947 --> 01:12:09,267 Speaker 3: they great? All Blacks in that side. What mistakes they made? 1412 01:12:09,307 --> 01:12:10,507 Speaker 3: Come on, James front up. 1413 01:12:11,507 --> 01:12:13,827 Speaker 14: Well, I mean I think you know exactly like well, 1414 01:12:13,867 --> 01:12:16,347 Speaker 14: I think we've got a drop ball from the captain. 1415 01:12:16,467 --> 01:12:21,867 Speaker 14: There was several breakdown penalties and you can go in 1416 01:12:21,907 --> 01:12:25,347 Speaker 14: and talk about One was for not releasing one was 1417 01:12:25,347 --> 01:12:27,707 Speaker 14: for an incury clean out. There was a yellow card 1418 01:12:27,707 --> 01:12:31,107 Speaker 14: from Tyrell Lomax. I'm just talking about all these mistakes 1419 01:12:31,147 --> 01:12:32,147 Speaker 14: in the final quarter. 1420 01:12:32,587 --> 01:12:32,787 Speaker 11: Yeah. 1421 01:12:32,907 --> 01:12:34,987 Speaker 14: Dmac missed a couple of kicks, but I just think 1422 01:12:35,147 --> 01:12:37,427 Speaker 14: there needs to be some perspective that is a team sport. 1423 01:12:37,907 --> 01:12:40,347 Speaker 14: And by the way, if we are talking about kicks, 1424 01:12:40,747 --> 01:12:43,347 Speaker 14: I think Jordie should be taking the long range goals 1425 01:12:43,427 --> 01:12:47,987 Speaker 14: and don't at me because he has got in golfing terms, 1426 01:12:48,027 --> 01:12:50,907 Speaker 14: he's the driver and d MAC is the three iron 1427 01:12:51,267 --> 01:12:53,947 Speaker 14: and I think he's got ten meters more range and 1428 01:12:53,987 --> 01:12:57,227 Speaker 14: so he should be taking those fifty meter plus kicks 1429 01:12:57,627 --> 01:13:01,147 Speaker 14: and leave dmac on the short range ones, although admittedly 1430 01:13:01,187 --> 01:13:01,947 Speaker 14: he did miss one. 1431 01:13:02,827 --> 01:13:06,227 Speaker 3: And I'll pass that message on to the All Black management, 1432 01:13:06,467 --> 01:13:08,267 Speaker 3: not that they are taking any of my advice, but 1433 01:13:08,347 --> 01:13:11,787 Speaker 3: so be it. So we get away from that, go 1434 01:13:11,867 --> 01:13:15,787 Speaker 3: to the ran fairly shield the storied career of this 1435 01:13:15,947 --> 01:13:19,627 Speaker 3: log of wood continues. And when you think about the 1436 01:13:19,707 --> 01:13:21,667 Speaker 3: history of rugby in this country and the way things 1437 01:13:21,747 --> 01:13:23,987 Speaker 3: chomp and change and the way things develop and so 1438 01:13:24,107 --> 01:13:27,147 Speaker 3: on and so forth, this thing's still going and it 1439 01:13:27,227 --> 01:13:32,307 Speaker 3: still creates a ruckus that's extraordinary, the tenure, the hold 1440 01:13:32,467 --> 01:13:34,227 Speaker 3: it's had on the New Zealand rugby public. 1441 01:13:35,547 --> 01:13:37,947 Speaker 14: There's still magic about the shield, and to be honest, 1442 01:13:37,947 --> 01:13:41,307 Speaker 14: it's one of the things about New Zealand rugby that 1443 01:13:41,627 --> 01:13:43,947 Speaker 14: other nations should have taken note. And I think you 1444 01:13:43,987 --> 01:13:46,387 Speaker 14: can do it in contact sport. It's a bit tricky 1445 01:13:46,387 --> 01:13:48,067 Speaker 14: in football where someone can nick your gold in the 1446 01:13:48,147 --> 01:13:51,507 Speaker 14: last second and it just changes everything. But generally, once 1447 01:13:51,507 --> 01:13:54,587 Speaker 14: you've slogged it out over eighty minutes, you can work 1448 01:13:54,627 --> 01:13:58,307 Speaker 14: out a worthy winner. So I feel like a Raanfilly 1449 01:13:58,387 --> 01:14:02,107 Speaker 14: shield concept should be used by all other nations and 1450 01:14:02,147 --> 01:14:05,827 Speaker 14: all other contact codes, like whether it's the NRL or 1451 01:14:05,867 --> 01:14:09,867 Speaker 14: the NF in America, because just having that fortress mentality 1452 01:14:10,187 --> 01:14:12,347 Speaker 14: it means something. You can see the pride in it, 1453 01:14:12,747 --> 01:14:16,467 Speaker 14: and how great is it that most of these these 1454 01:14:16,507 --> 01:14:19,187 Speaker 14: players are just young kids, but they still get it, 1455 01:14:19,227 --> 01:14:22,787 Speaker 14: They still get how amazing the shield is. You know, 1456 01:14:22,787 --> 01:14:24,907 Speaker 14: one hundred years on from its inception. 1457 01:14:26,427 --> 01:14:30,787 Speaker 3: And you say, kids's because they've been brought up with 1458 01:14:30,907 --> 01:14:33,307 Speaker 3: the wonderment of the rand Fury Shield. It's that whole 1459 01:14:33,547 --> 01:14:37,347 Speaker 3: oral tradition. Is it the history handed down? And they know. 1460 01:14:37,427 --> 01:14:39,467 Speaker 3: I mean that's a part of the even U ninety 1461 01:14:39,467 --> 01:14:41,267 Speaker 3: seventy three around Marlborough. I think a lot of people 1462 01:14:41,307 --> 01:14:42,267 Speaker 3: would missed that one. 1463 01:14:42,987 --> 01:14:45,387 Speaker 14: I know, And what a kick off the bench if 1464 01:14:45,467 --> 01:14:48,667 Speaker 14: only we kicked like that in Capel. I'm not going 1465 01:14:48,667 --> 01:14:50,947 Speaker 14: to go back there, but I would say just in 1466 01:14:51,067 --> 01:14:54,547 Speaker 14: terms of the bench, I still feel that bomb squad 1467 01:14:54,667 --> 01:14:56,987 Speaker 14: if we are just to backtrack a little bit about 1468 01:14:57,067 --> 01:15:00,507 Speaker 14: to the abs the bomb squad idea, the All Blacks 1469 01:15:00,507 --> 01:15:03,747 Speaker 14: still haven't worked out how to counter that, because, as 1470 01:15:03,787 --> 01:15:07,107 Speaker 14: you've talked about on the show, there were several players 1471 01:15:07,187 --> 01:15:11,227 Speaker 14: left high and dry reserves not even used. So I 1472 01:15:11,347 --> 01:15:13,547 Speaker 14: do think that the coaches are going to have to 1473 01:15:13,587 --> 01:15:16,747 Speaker 14: take a hit on that lost last night. I don't 1474 01:15:16,747 --> 01:15:18,947 Speaker 14: think it's time to get the knives out solely for 1475 01:15:19,027 --> 01:15:19,587 Speaker 14: the players. 1476 01:15:19,867 --> 01:15:22,267 Speaker 3: Did the quarter that rang through and said, look, there's 1477 01:15:22,267 --> 01:15:24,507 Speaker 3: been a succession plan for so long with the All Blacks. 1478 01:15:24,507 --> 01:15:28,787 Speaker 3: This is a fresh team with fresh coaching staff. Does 1479 01:15:28,947 --> 01:15:30,627 Speaker 3: that give them a bit of a wiggle room? Do 1480 01:15:30,667 --> 01:15:31,027 Speaker 3: you think? 1481 01:15:31,827 --> 01:15:32,067 Speaker 22: Yeah? 1482 01:15:32,107 --> 01:15:32,507 Speaker 21: Exactly. 1483 01:15:32,547 --> 01:15:35,747 Speaker 14: I mean, I'm not even saying that the coaches need 1484 01:15:35,747 --> 01:15:39,787 Speaker 14: to change. I'm just saying that they'll realize that they've 1485 01:15:39,787 --> 01:15:44,587 Speaker 14: got a few things wrong tactically. And really, the intensity 1486 01:15:44,667 --> 01:15:47,547 Speaker 14: of a spring Box All Blacks tests is something It's 1487 01:15:47,587 --> 01:15:52,147 Speaker 14: just another level. I think every nation, doesn't matter whether 1488 01:15:52,187 --> 01:15:55,387 Speaker 14: it's your northern hemisphere or even just the Minnows, they'll 1489 01:15:55,507 --> 01:15:58,907 Speaker 14: use those two test matches of the past two weeks 1490 01:15:58,907 --> 01:16:02,947 Speaker 14: as a master class an intensity and how to perform 1491 01:16:03,067 --> 01:16:05,067 Speaker 14: or not perform in the clutch. You know, it's just 1492 01:16:06,547 --> 01:16:08,387 Speaker 14: you can feel it, you can sense it. I don't 1493 01:16:08,427 --> 01:16:12,387 Speaker 14: think there's anything like it. I guess maybe Origin at 1494 01:16:12,427 --> 01:16:15,867 Speaker 14: its peak used to feel like that, But those spring 1495 01:16:15,907 --> 01:16:17,667 Speaker 14: boxs All Blacks tests are just something else. 1496 01:16:17,987 --> 01:16:20,827 Speaker 3: Third, ay, minutes to two, you're getting a hammering on text. Well, 1497 01:16:20,827 --> 01:16:24,547 Speaker 3: if one texts is a hammering, apparently you're showing your 1498 01:16:24,747 --> 01:16:28,707 Speaker 3: chief's bias. And you can see that coming, didn't you. 1499 01:16:29,347 --> 01:16:31,107 Speaker 14: Oh yeah, I know that's going to happen. But look, 1500 01:16:31,187 --> 01:16:37,627 Speaker 14: I'm all for actually persevering with a player who's feedingly talented. 1501 01:16:37,987 --> 01:16:40,827 Speaker 14: I thought that For example, one backline move was perfect, 1502 01:16:41,147 --> 01:16:44,947 Speaker 14: but Willie LaRue got his hand in the way of 1503 01:16:45,027 --> 01:16:47,707 Speaker 14: Boden's past. You know, if that pass was thrown a 1504 01:16:47,747 --> 01:16:51,307 Speaker 14: split second earlier, seven Reese makes the break and Boden 1505 01:16:51,347 --> 01:16:53,467 Speaker 14: finishes on the inside, Like, I mean, that is a 1506 01:16:53,667 --> 01:16:56,907 Speaker 14: definite try right there. And it was a yellow card 1507 01:16:56,947 --> 01:17:00,387 Speaker 14: to South Africa probably the right you know risk that. 1508 01:17:00,467 --> 01:17:02,747 Speaker 14: These are the things I think people need to understand. 1509 01:17:02,947 --> 01:17:05,947 Speaker 14: It is sport and things where little things happen that 1510 01:17:06,027 --> 01:17:09,067 Speaker 14: tip the balance. And all those mistakes I'm talking about 1511 01:17:09,067 --> 01:17:11,427 Speaker 14: from the All Blacks. I don't necessarily blame them. I'm 1512 01:17:11,507 --> 01:17:12,867 Speaker 14: just saying they happened as well. 1513 01:17:14,427 --> 01:17:17,867 Speaker 3: Come on, I've had it all before. The thing they 1514 01:17:17,907 --> 01:17:20,307 Speaker 3: don't do it deliberately, and that's what people have got 1515 01:17:20,307 --> 01:17:23,307 Speaker 3: to realize. People take this as a personal front, like 1516 01:17:23,347 --> 01:17:25,467 Speaker 3: they're being attacked themselves. I didn't go out there to 1517 01:17:25,507 --> 01:17:27,227 Speaker 3: do that, right, It's not their plan. 1518 01:17:27,827 --> 01:17:30,707 Speaker 14: Exactly, I know. And that's the thing. I mean, Look, 1519 01:17:30,747 --> 01:17:33,587 Speaker 14: there's I think it's been an incredible test matches and 1520 01:17:33,787 --> 01:17:35,787 Speaker 14: I've just admired what the All Blacks have done. They 1521 01:17:35,907 --> 01:17:38,747 Speaker 14: just finished up short. So can we just deal with that. 1522 01:17:39,227 --> 01:17:43,147 Speaker 14: Maybe in the mature manner. I mean, yeah, obviously everybody 1523 01:17:43,187 --> 01:17:44,987 Speaker 14: sort of throws their toys every now and then, but 1524 01:17:45,467 --> 01:17:46,387 Speaker 14: it's not that bad. 1525 01:17:47,387 --> 01:17:49,507 Speaker 3: I refuse to throw my toys out of the cot 1526 01:17:49,547 --> 01:17:52,467 Speaker 3: that I pretty much live in on results that I've 1527 01:17:52,507 --> 01:17:56,347 Speaker 3: got absolutely no control over it. Why would you your nuts? 1528 01:17:56,387 --> 01:18:00,507 Speaker 3: And we'll finish things off football. It's all on now 1529 01:18:00,627 --> 01:18:03,547 Speaker 3: in the States of America. Right across the conference. There's 1530 01:18:03,587 --> 01:18:06,667 Speaker 3: plenty going on. Two games yesterday went to Brazil, and 1531 01:18:06,827 --> 01:18:08,187 Speaker 3: I've got a whole lot coming up in the next 1532 01:18:08,227 --> 01:18:09,507 Speaker 3: couple of days. What have you got on that? 1533 01:18:10,547 --> 01:18:13,867 Speaker 14: Well, I'm just here to say, if you're not into 1534 01:18:13,907 --> 01:18:16,667 Speaker 14: the NFL, maybe it's time to pick a team. I'm 1535 01:18:16,667 --> 01:18:19,747 Speaker 14: a Detroit Lions fan. We're apparently the team that sucked 1536 01:18:19,747 --> 01:18:23,387 Speaker 14: the most and has the longest drouts of no Super 1537 01:18:23,427 --> 01:18:26,627 Speaker 14: Bowls and no championships or whatever you want to say 1538 01:18:27,227 --> 01:18:31,547 Speaker 14: over sixty six years. So look, I think there's a 1539 01:18:31,587 --> 01:18:34,587 Speaker 14: lot to like about the NFL. And the other thing 1540 01:18:34,667 --> 01:18:37,627 Speaker 14: is it's massive the ratings. I think it accounted for 1541 01:18:37,667 --> 01:18:42,027 Speaker 14: the top twenty shows in America last year between college 1542 01:18:42,027 --> 01:18:46,267 Speaker 14: football and NFL. So are you a fan of yourself, Darcy? 1543 01:18:46,307 --> 01:18:47,227 Speaker 14: Who do you support? 1544 01:18:47,507 --> 01:18:51,067 Speaker 3: I support the Jacksonville Jaguars, and there is a reason 1545 01:18:51,187 --> 01:18:54,307 Speaker 3: behind that that. I remember Ben Mallow, who's going to 1546 01:18:54,347 --> 01:18:58,267 Speaker 3: excuse me join us in about an hour's time when 1547 01:18:58,267 --> 01:19:00,387 Speaker 3: we first started talking on here about oh it would 1548 01:19:00,387 --> 01:19:03,107 Speaker 3: have been twenty years ago now, I asked him who 1549 01:19:03,147 --> 01:19:06,067 Speaker 3: I should support, and he told me that the Jacksonville Jaguars. 1550 01:19:06,587 --> 01:19:08,467 Speaker 3: We're a dumpster fire. And I said, that's it. I'm 1551 01:19:08,507 --> 01:19:11,427 Speaker 3: in that's my team. And they were and I followed them, 1552 01:19:11,427 --> 01:19:13,547 Speaker 3: and then Blake Bortles turned up and he wasn't very good, 1553 01:19:13,667 --> 01:19:16,307 Speaker 3: but they won a couple of games anyway, So that 1554 01:19:16,427 --> 01:19:20,027 Speaker 3: is my connection. It's Jacksonville because they were so bad, 1555 01:19:20,227 --> 01:19:21,387 Speaker 3: were kindred spirits. 1556 01:19:21,467 --> 01:19:25,147 Speaker 14: James, Yeah, I know this, and that's that's the thing. 1557 01:19:25,187 --> 01:19:27,507 Speaker 14: You can just choose in the area. Choose a player 1558 01:19:27,507 --> 01:19:30,587 Speaker 14: who you like. You know, there's specifica players there to 1559 01:19:30,667 --> 01:19:33,827 Speaker 14: a tongue of Vila with as a quarterback for the Dolphins, 1560 01:19:34,627 --> 01:19:39,347 Speaker 14: pookin the cour as someone receiver for the l A Rams. 1561 01:19:39,387 --> 01:19:41,827 Speaker 14: I mean, there's there's plenty of ways to sort of 1562 01:19:42,147 --> 01:19:45,267 Speaker 14: get into it. But look, I think the tribals and 1563 01:19:45,267 --> 01:19:49,067 Speaker 14: what they've got over there is something that every contact sport, 1564 01:19:49,147 --> 01:19:52,027 Speaker 14: including league and rugby need to look at because it 1565 01:19:52,107 --> 01:19:56,147 Speaker 14: seems to be growing and thriving while we with our 1566 01:19:56,227 --> 01:20:02,067 Speaker 14: own domestic competition struggle for for crowds. So you know 1567 01:20:02,347 --> 01:20:05,147 Speaker 14: it should actually serve as a bit of a lesson 1568 01:20:05,187 --> 01:20:08,987 Speaker 14: as well. Really watch this space, how do you replicate 1569 01:20:09,027 --> 01:20:09,987 Speaker 14: what the NFL. 1570 01:20:09,787 --> 01:20:12,627 Speaker 3: Does hold on the rugby union rugby league. You're going 1571 01:20:12,667 --> 01:20:15,587 Speaker 3: along the same track because they're slowing the game down 1572 01:20:15,707 --> 01:20:18,307 Speaker 3: ridiculously and you spend more time sitting there looking at 1573 01:20:18,307 --> 01:20:21,347 Speaker 3: decisions being made than watching accident Dad is my issue 1574 01:20:21,387 --> 01:20:24,427 Speaker 3: with that game. And on that note, until next time, 1575 01:20:24,827 --> 01:20:28,787 Speaker 3: Jason Pine decides to desert the studio. James Mconi, thanks 1576 01:20:28,867 --> 01:20:32,547 Speaker 3: very much for your time, your attitudes, your opinion, your expertise, 1577 01:20:32,627 --> 01:20:33,907 Speaker 3: your wonderment.

And you know, 1751 01:30:31,907 --> 01:30:35,347 Speaker 27: we are striving to find a personal best time because 1752 01:30:35,587 --> 01:30:38,707 Speaker 27: you know then that's the best race you've ever done. 1753 01:30:40,387 --> 01:30:43,227 Speaker 3: You know all about being the hunted. You made that 1754 01:30:43,427 --> 01:30:48,667 Speaker 3: comment before energy going into a Paralympics knowing you've got 1755 01:30:48,707 --> 01:30:51,707 Speaker 3: to target on your back? How do you deal with that? 1756 01:30:51,747 --> 01:30:54,627 Speaker 3: What's the best way to work through that pressure? 1757 01:30:56,107 --> 01:30:56,267 Speaker 19: Oh? 1758 01:30:56,307 --> 01:31:00,147 Speaker 27: Look, it's definitely a daily mindset for when you turn 1759 01:31:00,227 --> 01:31:03,427 Speaker 27: up every day to you know, for me personally, obviously 1760 01:31:03,427 --> 01:31:06,667 Speaker 27: it was the poll and the gym or where you know, 1761 01:31:06,787 --> 01:31:11,107 Speaker 27: all my training sessions. But people have to understand, you know, 1762 01:31:11,107 --> 01:31:16,147 Speaker 27: in an athlete's world, you know, it's it is about, you. 1763 01:31:16,107 --> 01:31:19,187 Speaker 28: Know, trying to obviously achieve to be the best in 1764 01:31:19,227 --> 01:31:19,667 Speaker 28: the world. 1765 01:31:19,827 --> 01:31:23,827 Speaker 27: And you know, for us, it's not just a professional sport. 1766 01:31:23,987 --> 01:31:27,107 Speaker 27: It's a personal to us as well, because we know 1767 01:31:27,147 --> 01:31:30,107 Speaker 27: when we come home it is about obviously the recovery. 1768 01:31:30,587 --> 01:31:33,427 Speaker 27: And you know, what we do at home reflects how 1769 01:31:33,427 --> 01:31:36,627 Speaker 27: we train and then how we perform on the world stage. 1770 01:31:36,947 --> 01:31:40,507 Speaker 27: So mindset is a huge part of that. It's not 1771 01:31:40,627 --> 01:31:43,267 Speaker 27: just the physical side, and to be able to turn 1772 01:31:43,347 --> 01:31:46,787 Speaker 27: off when you get home, you know, just enough to 1773 01:31:46,827 --> 01:31:50,107 Speaker 27: be able to obviously focus on that recovery or maybe 1774 01:31:50,187 --> 01:31:53,427 Speaker 27: take it, you know, do some mindleness, you know, wellness 1775 01:31:53,427 --> 01:31:56,947 Speaker 27: and minded mindfulness. You know, all of those are part 1776 01:31:56,987 --> 01:31:59,147 Speaker 27: of how to execute when you get onto a big 1777 01:31:59,147 --> 01:32:03,547 Speaker 27: world stage as being the hunted. And you know, if 1778 01:32:03,587 --> 01:32:05,547 Speaker 27: we use Ana Grimolda, you know she has got the 1779 01:32:05,547 --> 01:32:08,627 Speaker 27: previous experience and you know, the debutantes that have come 1780 01:32:08,627 --> 01:32:11,547 Speaker 27: into this particular games, you are going to learn that 1781 01:32:11,667 --> 01:32:16,947 Speaker 27: because in a Paralympic environment, it's unpredictable. You know, there's 1782 01:32:16,987 --> 01:32:21,067 Speaker 27: so many external factors going on, and it's really hard 1783 01:32:21,107 --> 01:32:24,227 Speaker 27: to explain to people what a Paralympic Games, or in 1784 01:32:24,267 --> 01:32:27,907 Speaker 27: Olympic Games is really like unless you've been there and 1785 01:32:28,507 --> 01:32:32,187 Speaker 27: really soaked in, you know, the atmosphere, because it is 1786 01:32:32,267 --> 01:32:36,907 Speaker 27: it's just it's a whole it's its own whole world. 1787 01:32:37,067 --> 01:32:40,627 Speaker 28: You know, it's not it's many sports that are there. 1788 01:32:40,787 --> 01:32:44,427 Speaker 27: You've got world champions walking around you. 1789 01:32:44,427 --> 01:32:47,267 Speaker 28: You're living in a you know, enclosed environment. 1790 01:32:48,507 --> 01:32:52,067 Speaker 27: Everything is put on a much bigger scale, and when 1791 01:32:52,107 --> 01:32:56,267 Speaker 27: you've been so used to either national championships or world championships, 1792 01:32:56,467 --> 01:33:00,387 Speaker 27: it is completely different. So you can never really prepare yourself, 1793 01:33:01,547 --> 01:33:03,507 Speaker 27: you know fully what a Paralympic Games is going to 1794 01:33:03,507 --> 01:33:05,427 Speaker 27: give you, But you can only prepare yourself the best 1795 01:33:05,427 --> 01:33:11,427 Speaker 27: you possibly can. Most athletes do a lot of mindfulness training, 1796 01:33:11,467 --> 01:33:14,947 Speaker 27: They work with their psychologists, they try and you know, 1797 01:33:15,467 --> 01:33:18,107 Speaker 27: you know, factor that into their trainings to be able 1798 01:33:18,147 --> 01:33:21,147 Speaker 27: to replicate as best they possibly can what you know 1799 01:33:21,147 --> 01:33:23,827 Speaker 27: they're going to expect at the Paralympic Games. 1800 01:33:23,987 --> 01:33:28,347 Speaker 3: It's been really important of recent times across a number 1801 01:33:28,427 --> 01:33:32,467 Speaker 3: of different sports, not just swimming, not just athletics, at 1802 01:33:32,547 --> 01:33:35,147 Speaker 3: various games. So you've I want to say you've been 1803 01:33:35,187 --> 01:33:38,827 Speaker 3: around the block, but how many Olympic Games you've been to? Four? 1804 01:33:38,867 --> 01:33:40,627 Speaker 3: I think it has started off in Beijing. Have you 1805 01:33:40,787 --> 01:33:45,267 Speaker 3: noticed that over your career the focus now on the 1806 01:33:45,307 --> 01:33:47,107 Speaker 3: mental health and the wellness of the athletes. 1807 01:33:48,507 --> 01:33:52,347 Speaker 27: Yeah, it's absolutely huge, And neck comes down to, you know, 1808 01:33:52,427 --> 01:33:54,747 Speaker 27: how much bigger these games are getting every year. The 1809 01:33:54,867 --> 01:34:00,387 Speaker 27: media that's you know, around the Paralympic Games and around 1810 01:34:00,467 --> 01:34:04,027 Speaker 27: the athletes, but also people are talking about mental health 1811 01:34:04,747 --> 01:34:10,027 Speaker 27: and it's crucial or you know, the fact that, like 1812 01:34:10,107 --> 01:34:13,147 Speaker 27: I said before, it's not a professional sport to us, 1813 01:34:13,187 --> 01:34:17,547 Speaker 27: it's personal as well. And it is pretty hard to 1814 01:34:17,587 --> 01:34:21,147 Speaker 27: switch off when you you know, close the door, you know, 1815 01:34:21,187 --> 01:34:24,067 Speaker 27: when you come home from a training session, because you can't. 1816 01:34:24,067 --> 01:34:28,827 Speaker 27: You've got to be constantly factoring in all those smaller 1817 01:34:28,867 --> 01:34:32,147 Speaker 27: things that you know, provide for the bigger you know, 1818 01:34:32,227 --> 01:34:37,267 Speaker 27: outcome and goal. But you know, I think it's great 1819 01:34:37,307 --> 01:34:40,427 Speaker 27: that athletes are talking more and more about their mental health. 1820 01:34:41,707 --> 01:34:45,107 Speaker 27: It's very important to you know, be open and honest 1821 01:34:45,187 --> 01:34:47,987 Speaker 27: because you know, the pressure that you put on yourself 1822 01:34:48,107 --> 01:34:50,027 Speaker 27: is usually the biggest pressure. 1823 01:34:50,067 --> 01:34:53,347 Speaker 28: But then when you obviously you know, become. 1824 01:34:53,347 --> 01:34:57,467 Speaker 27: An expected within the environment of your field of play. 1825 01:34:58,547 --> 01:34:59,907 Speaker 28: Yeah, people do have. 1826 01:34:59,747 --> 01:35:04,107 Speaker 27: That external pressure as well put on them, and yeah, 1827 01:35:04,187 --> 01:35:07,827 Speaker 27: I do think it's really important to constantly, you know, 1828 01:35:07,947 --> 01:35:12,187 Speaker 27: checking in with yourself and remembering that actually, you know, 1829 01:35:12,667 --> 01:35:16,427 Speaker 27: at the end of the day, you are loved beyond 1830 01:35:16,547 --> 01:35:19,907 Speaker 27: the outcome of you know, a medal or a placing. 1831 01:35:20,467 --> 01:35:23,467 Speaker 3: You're more than just your sport. And again that goes 1832 01:35:23,547 --> 01:35:26,747 Speaker 3: right across a number of different sports, team sports and 1833 01:35:26,827 --> 01:35:31,467 Speaker 3: individual sports. We're joined by Dame Sophie Pasco. We better 1834 01:35:31,547 --> 01:35:34,307 Speaker 3: talk about I've gotten this conversation with you and I'm 1835 01:35:34,347 --> 01:35:37,707 Speaker 3: loving it. But the athletes themselves at the Paralympics one 1836 01:35:37,787 --> 01:35:43,307 Speaker 3: gold medal, four silver medals, three bronze medals. How does 1837 01:35:43,347 --> 01:35:45,587 Speaker 3: that reflect on the team? Do you think? Is it 1838 01:35:45,627 --> 01:35:48,387 Speaker 3: about that tin count or is it about more than that? 1839 01:35:49,667 --> 01:35:51,147 Speaker 28: It's absolutely about more than that. 1840 01:35:51,227 --> 01:35:54,747 Speaker 27: You know, we've got one of our tightest teams over there. 1841 01:35:55,867 --> 01:35:58,267 Speaker 27: You know, there's a small team there, you know, it's 1842 01:35:58,307 --> 01:36:01,027 Speaker 27: twenty five athletes and then you've got the support stuff 1843 01:36:02,107 --> 01:36:04,547 Speaker 27: you know on top of that as well that have 1844 01:36:04,627 --> 01:36:08,667 Speaker 27: joined the team. And the beauty of New Zealand, the 1845 01:36:08,707 --> 01:36:12,467 Speaker 27: New Zealand Paralympic team is that we usually do have 1846 01:36:12,507 --> 01:36:16,667 Speaker 27: a small team, so you do become a real tight family. 1847 01:36:17,307 --> 01:36:23,347 Speaker 27: And yes, you know, medals are absolutely what every athlete 1848 01:36:23,427 --> 01:36:25,467 Speaker 27: is striving for, do not get me wrong. 1849 01:36:25,587 --> 01:36:27,867 Speaker 28: But no matter if you've won a medal. 1850 01:36:27,747 --> 01:36:30,707 Speaker 27: Or not, when you come back to the village, your 1851 01:36:30,787 --> 01:36:34,467 Speaker 27: family are standing there, meaning your teammates and your support 1852 01:36:34,627 --> 01:36:37,187 Speaker 27: staff are standing there waiting for you. 1853 01:36:37,787 --> 01:36:40,587 Speaker 28: To embrace you. And that is so important. 1854 01:36:40,667 --> 01:36:44,147 Speaker 27: And what I have noticed about these games by you know, 1855 01:36:44,267 --> 01:36:48,027 Speaker 27: keeping in touch with my fellow athletes, is that they 1856 01:36:48,067 --> 01:36:50,587 Speaker 27: have been doing that and that they've been supporting one 1857 01:36:50,627 --> 01:36:55,947 Speaker 27: another through triumph and through defeat, and that is you know, 1858 01:36:56,587 --> 01:36:58,907 Speaker 27: you can't ask for much more than that, And I 1859 01:36:58,947 --> 01:37:03,587 Speaker 27: think that's why we are really close knit type family. 1860 01:37:03,787 --> 01:37:07,267 Speaker 27: And you know, yes we've gained a gold medal overnight, 1861 01:37:07,347 --> 01:37:11,427 Speaker 27: we've you know, got you know, numerous silvers and bronze 1862 01:37:11,427 --> 01:37:14,507 Speaker 27: throughout the meat. But I know that this team will 1863 01:37:14,547 --> 01:37:17,507 Speaker 27: be walking away with memories of a lifetime with the 1864 01:37:17,547 --> 01:37:20,547 Speaker 27: family members that they've created within the team. 1865 01:37:20,787 --> 01:37:24,027 Speaker 3: So for you, you mentioned the size of the games, 1866 01:37:24,027 --> 01:37:27,027 Speaker 3: it's getting bigger and bigger and bigger. Was there a 1867 01:37:27,027 --> 01:37:29,267 Speaker 3: part of you that got a bit of a bit 1868 01:37:29,387 --> 01:37:33,067 Speaker 3: jealous that you weren't actually there competing. Because the event 1869 01:37:33,427 --> 01:37:37,587 Speaker 3: Paris was extraordinary. The crowds were wild, and that's a 1870 01:37:37,747 --> 01:37:39,867 Speaker 3: seriously big event. There must have been a wee bit 1871 01:37:39,907 --> 01:37:41,827 Speaker 3: of I mean, I wish I was there. 1872 01:37:44,227 --> 01:37:48,227 Speaker 27: Look, when the Olympic Games were on, I actually did 1873 01:37:48,307 --> 01:37:52,747 Speaker 27: get quite a lot of fomo. I was getting nervous. 1874 01:37:53,147 --> 01:37:57,307 Speaker 27: You know, the Paralympics were obviously coming up, and the 1875 01:37:57,347 --> 01:38:00,027 Speaker 27: Olympics will always used as you know, for me, I 1876 01:38:00,067 --> 01:38:01,147 Speaker 27: was always overseas. 1877 01:38:01,267 --> 01:38:02,107 Speaker 28: I was always. 1878 01:38:01,827 --> 01:38:05,587 Speaker 27: Training getting ready for the Paralympic event, which is usually 1879 01:38:05,667 --> 01:38:10,307 Speaker 27: two or three weeks afterwards, and so when they were on, 1880 01:38:10,947 --> 01:38:15,147 Speaker 27: I yeah, I was just really feeling you know, oh 1881 01:38:15,187 --> 01:38:16,907 Speaker 27: my goodness, what am I going to feel in three 1882 01:38:16,907 --> 01:38:19,427 Speaker 27: weeks time when I'm you know, sitting behind a desk 1883 01:38:19,507 --> 01:38:23,387 Speaker 27: presenting Paralympic Games? You know, am I going to be 1884 01:38:23,427 --> 01:38:27,187 Speaker 27: feeling this? But the fact the day one, when I 1885 01:38:27,187 --> 01:38:32,027 Speaker 27: sat next to Scottie, you know, I actually felt really content. 1886 01:38:32,107 --> 01:38:34,907 Speaker 27: And I think that's because I knew I was still 1887 01:38:34,987 --> 01:38:37,827 Speaker 27: part of the team, but in a different capacity. And 1888 01:38:38,627 --> 01:38:41,867 Speaker 27: you know, I am about enhancing the Paralympic movement and 1889 01:38:42,027 --> 01:38:44,547 Speaker 27: I want to be able to obviously do that with 1890 01:38:44,707 --> 01:38:46,587 Speaker 27: you know the platform that I've been able to create, 1891 01:38:47,227 --> 01:38:51,387 Speaker 27: and so I feel like I have just really enjoyed 1892 01:38:51,987 --> 01:38:56,107 Speaker 27: sitting back watching our new New Zealand athletes take on 1893 01:38:56,147 --> 01:38:59,067 Speaker 27: the world stage and watching the games, and I've just 1894 01:38:59,147 --> 01:39:04,027 Speaker 27: loved embracing it.

And watch these athletes. 1897 01:39:11,307 --> 01:39:16,467 Speaker 27: They are important, they are vital to sport, and they 1898 01:39:16,507 --> 01:39:19,667 Speaker 27: are an inspiration and not an inspiration for being disabled, 1899 01:39:19,707 --> 01:39:22,147 Speaker 27: They're an inspiration for taking on the world and for 1900 01:39:22,227 --> 01:39:29,907 Speaker 27: their achievements.

Only three players have achieved ten wickets 1964 01:43:05,707 --> 01:43:07,867 Speaker 3: and he did it in his home. It's in Mumbai 1965 01:43:07,947 --> 01:43:10,427 Speaker 3: and it's where he was born. How good and what 1966 01:43:10,627 --> 01:43:14,907 Speaker 3: was his reward? Drops didn't play here for quite some time? 1967 01:43:14,947 --> 01:43:17,987 Speaker 3: Ore the nature of being a spinner in New zeal And. 1968 01:43:17,987 --> 01:43:21,027 Speaker 3: Then we've got them on the blow and Agezy, you 1969 01:43:21,107 --> 01:43:24,227 Speaker 3: must be BRUTTI stoke pretty written to be back in 1970 01:43:24,427 --> 01:43:25,347 Speaker 3: white again. 1971 01:43:25,427 --> 01:43:29,627 Speaker 6: What an exciting time, great Darcy, Yeah, it's very exciting. 1972 01:43:29,667 --> 01:43:32,307 Speaker 6: It's always a privilege to play for the black Caps 1973 01:43:32,307 --> 01:43:36,547 Speaker 6: and obviously coming into these conditions, you know there's a 1974 01:43:36,547 --> 01:43:38,947 Speaker 6: big role to play, so it's it's quite exciting. 1975 01:43:38,947 --> 01:43:39,947 Speaker 20: As a spinner, I. 1976 01:43:39,907 --> 01:43:42,867 Speaker 6: Guess you know, going away from home, but also in 1977 01:43:42,907 --> 01:43:46,547 Speaker 6: conditions where you know, hopefully things will be favorable for you. 1978 01:43:46,987 --> 01:43:48,787 Speaker 3: How much of this do you carry on your shoulders? 1979 01:43:48,827 --> 01:43:50,787 Speaker 3: But there's there's a few spinners out there. You've got 1980 01:43:50,787 --> 01:43:53,187 Speaker 3: a pilot, a couple of part timers, a couple of 1981 01:43:53,187 --> 01:43:55,787 Speaker 3: all rounders, a couple of you know fully spin Mean, 1982 01:43:56,027 --> 01:43:58,947 Speaker 3: it's quite a phalanx of you blokes, isn't there. How 1983 01:43:58,987 --> 01:44:01,667 Speaker 3: do you fit into this? Do you like the senior dude? 1984 01:44:03,067 --> 01:44:04,987 Speaker 20: No, No, I don't. I don't really look at it 1985 01:44:05,027 --> 01:44:05,347 Speaker 20: that way. 1986 01:44:05,387 --> 01:44:08,507 Speaker 6: I think we've got a big group of spinners, and 1987 01:44:08,627 --> 01:44:11,067 Speaker 6: our spinners are developing quite well at the moment. So 1988 01:44:11,107 --> 01:44:13,747 Speaker 6: we're all I guess working together towards a common goal 1989 01:44:13,827 --> 01:44:17,787 Speaker 6: and you know, and I guess in common New Zealand fashion, 1990 01:44:17,987 --> 01:44:20,587 Speaker 6: I guess it's all about the collective and working together 1991 01:44:20,707 --> 01:44:23,907 Speaker 6: and so yeah, whatever we can do to kind of 1992 01:44:23,987 --> 01:44:25,907 Speaker 6: I guess influence a result in our. 1993 01:44:25,787 --> 01:44:27,707 Speaker 20: Favor where we're going to go out there and give 1994 01:44:27,747 --> 01:44:29,907 Speaker 20: it our all. But I think we all back each 1995 01:44:29,947 --> 01:44:31,467 Speaker 20: other to do our roles. 1996 01:44:31,987 --> 01:44:35,627 Speaker 3: I'm presuming that it's going to be a bit of 1997 01:44:35,627 --> 01:44:37,467 Speaker 3: this and a bit of that. As far as who's playing. 1998 01:44:37,467 --> 01:44:39,147 Speaker 3: I mean, you're hardly going to roll in with the 1999 01:44:39,467 --> 01:44:42,587 Speaker 3: complete deck of spinners, are you. So how is that 2000 01:44:42,667 --> 01:44:45,427 Speaker 3: going to work? Have you spoken with the coaching staff 2001 01:44:45,467 --> 01:44:47,747 Speaker 3: about who plays when and where? Is it a match 2002 01:44:47,787 --> 01:44:50,147 Speaker 3: by match basis? How does that actually operate? Do you think? 2003 01:44:50,187 --> 01:44:52,507 Speaker 3: Ajsu in all? 2004 01:44:52,507 --> 01:44:54,307 Speaker 20: Honestly, I think it's beyond my paycheck. 2005 01:44:54,907 --> 01:44:56,987 Speaker 3: Oh come on, you must have talked to them, surely 2006 01:44:57,267 --> 01:44:59,907 Speaker 3: he said something. Come on, mate, No, I. 2007 01:44:59,787 --> 01:45:00,867 Speaker 20: Mean, I guess. 2008 01:45:00,907 --> 01:45:02,827 Speaker 6: I guess it's really up to the coaches in terms 2009 01:45:02,867 --> 01:45:05,827 Speaker 6: of figuring out what the right balances for us going 2010 01:45:05,827 --> 01:45:08,107 Speaker 6: into these and what they're really looking for. 2011 01:45:08,147 --> 01:45:09,587 Speaker 20: And I think some of it. 2012 01:45:09,507 --> 01:45:12,347 Speaker 6: Comes down to the conditions, but also I guess the opposition, 2013 01:45:12,467 --> 01:45:15,187 Speaker 6: and you know, sometimes it might be the amount of 2014 01:45:15,307 --> 01:45:19,587 Speaker 6: left handers versus right handers, or if the picket, if 2015 01:45:19,587 --> 01:45:21,547 Speaker 6: the wicket we believe is going to break up quite 2016 01:45:21,547 --> 01:45:25,387 Speaker 6: a lot or not, And I guess that really plays 2017 01:45:25,427 --> 01:45:27,987 Speaker 6: a big part in these conditions. And I guess you 2018 01:45:28,067 --> 01:45:30,827 Speaker 6: tailor your team based on the conditions and the team 2019 01:45:30,867 --> 01:45:33,587 Speaker 6: in front of you, especially in the subcontinent, because we 2020 01:45:33,747 --> 01:45:36,987 Speaker 6: know how big a role spin can play here. So 2021 01:45:37,747 --> 01:45:39,827 Speaker 6: I guess it really comes down to them and their 2022 01:45:39,907 --> 01:45:42,347 Speaker 6: gut feel on. You know, what's the best way for 2023 01:45:42,507 --> 01:45:45,667 Speaker 6: us to kind of, I guess break it down against 2024 01:45:45,667 --> 01:45:48,547 Speaker 6: a certain opposition. So it'll be interesting but quite an 2025 01:45:48,547 --> 01:45:51,147 Speaker 6: exciting time for all us spinners because we all know 2026 01:45:51,227 --> 01:45:53,187 Speaker 6: that we're all in the mix to play a fair 2027 01:45:53,227 --> 01:45:53,627 Speaker 6: but a test. 2028 01:45:54,067 --> 01:45:55,867 Speaker 3: How do you count to the weather? That's got to 2029 01:45:55,867 --> 01:45:58,387 Speaker 3: be the toughest one. Surely I'm not about the food. 2030 01:45:58,427 --> 01:46:01,147 Speaker 3: I know, shame Warren took a Palettelader baked beans. But 2031 01:46:01,547 --> 01:46:04,307 Speaker 3: food's one thing where there's another thing. Is there any 2032 01:46:04,307 --> 01:46:07,547 Speaker 3: way to actually acclimatize to that in a or not? Ages? 2033 01:46:08,667 --> 01:46:08,787 Speaker 19: Oh? 2034 01:46:08,907 --> 01:46:11,227 Speaker 20: I guess it just comes down to fitness. 2035 01:46:11,987 --> 01:46:13,867 Speaker 6: You know, our trainer works us pretty hard to make 2036 01:46:13,867 --> 01:46:16,627 Speaker 6: sure that we're fit enough to deal with these conditions, 2037 01:46:16,867 --> 01:46:19,227 Speaker 6: and Chris is fantastic and the boys are quite fit 2038 01:46:19,307 --> 01:46:20,867 Speaker 6: and ready to go. 2039 01:46:21,107 --> 01:46:23,027 Speaker 20: I guess when it comes to heat, you can't really 2040 01:46:23,067 --> 01:46:23,427 Speaker 20: do much. 2041 01:46:23,467 --> 01:46:25,947 Speaker 6: It's just, you know, I guess, accepting the fact that 2042 01:46:25,987 --> 01:46:27,667 Speaker 6: it's going to be hot, it's going to be sticky, and. 2043 01:46:28,187 --> 01:46:29,147 Speaker 20: Getting on with the job. 2044 01:46:29,227 --> 01:46:31,467 Speaker 6: And I mean, you know, we're all professionals at the 2045 01:46:31,547 --> 01:46:33,347 Speaker 6: end of the day, and we're expected to I guess 2046 01:46:33,387 --> 01:46:35,827 Speaker 6: you know, go out there and be ready to go. 2047 01:46:35,907 --> 01:46:40,067 Speaker 6: And yeah, we've had maybe a slightly shorter time this 2048 01:46:40,227 --> 01:46:42,667 Speaker 6: time in terms of getting here and in those in 2049 01:46:42,707 --> 01:46:45,747 Speaker 6: these conditions. But at the same time, it hasn't been 2050 01:46:45,747 --> 01:46:48,027 Speaker 6: too hot at the moment. I think it was sitting 2051 01:46:48,027 --> 01:46:52,307 Speaker 6: at early to mid thirties and it's kind of close 2052 01:46:52,347 --> 01:46:54,227 Speaker 6: to the end of the monsoon season, I believe, so 2053 01:46:54,267 --> 01:46:56,987 Speaker 6: it's not it's not crazy hot, but yeah, certainly warm 2054 01:46:56,987 --> 01:46:59,547 Speaker 6: with in New Zealand. I actually enjoy this, whether believe 2055 01:46:59,587 --> 01:47:01,587 Speaker 6: it or not. It's actually nice for the body. 2056 01:47:01,627 --> 01:47:02,187 Speaker 20: You feel a. 2057 01:47:02,107 --> 01:47:04,787 Speaker 6: Bit freer and you move a bit better, so it's 2058 01:47:04,867 --> 01:47:06,107 Speaker 6: actually quite quite nice. 2059 01:47:06,467 --> 01:47:08,667 Speaker 3: I think i'd probably pass out and I wouldn't move 2060 01:47:09,027 --> 01:47:12,427 Speaker 3: freely at all. That's on a gurney. AJS Patel joins 2061 01:47:12,467 --> 01:47:15,147 Speaker 3: us here on news Talk z B. I suppose you 2062 01:47:15,187 --> 01:47:17,227 Speaker 3: can keep in the sleeptor's minds if you just tear 2063 01:47:17,307 --> 01:47:19,107 Speaker 3: up a storm. If you're taking a pile of wickets, 2064 01:47:19,107 --> 01:47:20,507 Speaker 3: they're hardly going to say sit down. 2065 01:47:22,227 --> 01:47:25,147 Speaker 20: Yeah. I guess you know that comes with the territory. 2066 01:47:25,467 --> 01:47:27,387 Speaker 6: I guess when you're taking wickets, you're bowling lots of 2067 01:47:27,387 --> 01:47:30,547 Speaker 6: overs and you've got to be prepared for that, especially 2068 01:47:30,707 --> 01:47:34,387 Speaker 6: in these conditions. Sometimes things happen quickly, but sometimes you know, 2069 01:47:34,427 --> 01:47:36,547 Speaker 6: you just got to keep working a way and it 2070 01:47:36,587 --> 01:47:37,627 Speaker 6: may take a little while. 2071 01:47:37,707 --> 01:47:39,347 Speaker 20: So it's just a matter. 2072 01:47:39,187 --> 01:47:42,147 Speaker 6: Of, I guess, continuing to make sure you're putting your 2073 01:47:42,187 --> 01:47:46,027 Speaker 6: best foot forward and delivering your best deliveries regardless of. 2074 01:47:45,747 --> 01:47:47,027 Speaker 20: What's happening at the other end. 2075 01:47:47,067 --> 01:47:49,627 Speaker 6: And you know, Test Creger, it's a different challenge and 2076 01:47:49,667 --> 01:47:52,987 Speaker 6: it certainly challenges you both mentally and physically, and so 2077 01:47:53,267 --> 01:47:56,267 Speaker 6: it's you know, that's partly why we enjoy it is 2078 01:47:56,587 --> 01:48:00,387 Speaker 6: kind of pushing yourself, I guess, beyond limits that you 2079 01:48:00,467 --> 01:48:02,187 Speaker 6: sometimes expect yourself to go to. 2080 01:48:02,867 --> 01:48:05,747 Speaker 3: It's been a few years since you tore up the world. 2081 01:48:05,907 --> 01:48:07,987 Speaker 3: You're going to go back to my kiddie, back to 2082 01:48:08,107 --> 01:48:11,747 Speaker 3: Mumbai roughly the same time of year. If they don't 2083 01:48:11,787 --> 01:48:14,387 Speaker 3: pick you for that game, how dirty will you be? Ajas? 2084 01:48:14,427 --> 01:48:17,547 Speaker 3: Because you know, teen records doesn't come along every day, 2085 01:48:17,587 --> 01:48:19,787 Speaker 3: does it. That was just an exceptional time for New 2086 01:48:19,867 --> 01:48:22,307 Speaker 3: Zealand cricket. So you're dribbling over that one, are you. 2087 01:48:23,347 --> 01:48:25,227 Speaker 20: Yeah, it was a special occasion obviously. 2088 01:48:26,267 --> 01:48:29,227 Speaker 6: I think the biggest thing for me was playing I 2089 01:48:29,267 --> 01:48:32,507 Speaker 6: guess at my hometown. I'm playing in Mumbai where I 2090 01:48:32,547 --> 01:48:34,587 Speaker 6: was born brought up to a certain degree and then 2091 01:48:34,987 --> 01:48:36,987 Speaker 6: obviously before I shifted to New Zealand. 2092 01:48:37,027 --> 01:48:38,987 Speaker 20: So I guess that was really special for me. 2093 01:48:39,067 --> 01:48:41,947 Speaker 6: And returning back there, I think it's once again that 2094 01:48:41,947 --> 01:48:44,827 Speaker 6: that thing that kind of really draws me in as 2095 01:48:45,307 --> 01:48:47,227 Speaker 6: kind of being at home and playing in front of 2096 01:48:47,227 --> 01:48:50,387 Speaker 6: friends and family and you know, being on. 2097 01:48:50,347 --> 01:48:51,227 Speaker 20: The other side of the world. 2098 01:48:51,227 --> 01:48:53,187 Speaker 6: But it's also certainly a part of who I am 2099 01:48:53,267 --> 01:48:57,667 Speaker 6: and I guess the fabric of me, you know, being 2100 01:48:57,667 --> 01:48:59,707 Speaker 6: Indian born and from Mumbai. 2101 01:48:59,267 --> 01:49:01,227 Speaker 20: So it's always going to be a special place. 2102 01:49:01,267 --> 01:49:03,427 Speaker 6: I guess it's going to be more special after what 2103 01:49:03,507 --> 01:49:05,467 Speaker 6: has happened there certainly. 2104 01:49:06,507 --> 01:49:08,107 Speaker 20: But yeah, I guess it's. 2105 01:49:08,027 --> 01:49:10,547 Speaker 6: Just be pretty cool to play them on Bay and 2106 01:49:10,587 --> 01:49:12,867 Speaker 6: I believe they have this it's going to be a 2107 01:49:12,867 --> 01:49:15,027 Speaker 6: special game because I believe it's something like their one 2108 01:49:15,147 --> 01:49:18,307 Speaker 6: hundred and fiftieth test at the One Kiddy, So yeah, 2109 01:49:18,307 --> 01:49:20,867 Speaker 6: it's a special milestone and an occasion for them as well. 2110 01:49:21,147 --> 01:49:24,187 Speaker 3: How do you think you're going to be accepted there? 2111 01:49:24,227 --> 01:49:26,427 Speaker 3: Are you going to be like just a tiny rock 2112 01:49:26,467 --> 01:49:28,227 Speaker 3: star when you get over there, because as you said, 2113 01:49:28,267 --> 01:49:32,147 Speaker 3: you're a hometown boy. You did something quite extraordinarily. Three players, 2114 01:49:32,227 --> 01:49:34,547 Speaker 3: including yourself, have done it in test history. Do you 2115 01:49:34,587 --> 01:49:36,907 Speaker 3: think you'll be fated by the masses over there, even 2116 01:49:36,907 --> 01:49:38,987 Speaker 3: though you're playing for the wrong team age As. 2117 01:49:40,627 --> 01:49:43,187 Speaker 6: To be fair, last time I was there, I guess 2118 01:49:43,227 --> 01:49:45,667 Speaker 6: when I was on the boundary, I was copping a 2119 01:49:45,707 --> 01:49:48,507 Speaker 6: bit to begin with, But then as I started getting 2120 01:49:48,507 --> 01:49:50,667 Speaker 6: closer and closer, they were almost egging me on to 2121 01:49:50,707 --> 01:49:54,227 Speaker 6: do it. So I guess that the crowd had turned 2122 01:49:54,227 --> 01:49:57,347 Speaker 6: in my favor. It'll be interesting to see how it 2123 01:49:57,427 --> 01:50:00,147 Speaker 6: kind of begins in the next one. We know that 2124 01:50:00,427 --> 01:50:03,787 Speaker 6: the crowd in India are very passionate about cricket, but 2125 01:50:03,947 --> 01:50:06,707 Speaker 6: also very passionate about Indian cricket, so I don't think 2126 01:50:06,747 --> 01:50:08,387 Speaker 6: that's going to change. But I think I might get 2127 01:50:08,427 --> 01:50:11,307 Speaker 6: a little bit more leeway seeing as you know, I'm 2128 01:50:11,507 --> 01:50:12,827 Speaker 6: kind of a hometown boy. 2129 01:50:13,747 --> 01:50:16,867 Speaker 3: What about the bats? He even worried about that at all. 2130 01:50:16,867 --> 01:50:18,667 Speaker 3: Have been swinging the widow around a wee bit, and 2131 01:50:18,707 --> 01:50:21,027 Speaker 3: it's just all about not all about tweaking. Surely you've 2132 01:50:21,067 --> 01:50:22,667 Speaker 3: got a job at the other end, right. 2133 01:50:22,707 --> 01:50:24,467 Speaker 20: Right, Yeah, one hundred percent. 2134 01:50:25,267 --> 01:50:27,667 Speaker 6: I guess, like I say, in these conditions, every run 2135 01:50:27,707 --> 01:50:29,427 Speaker 6: is valuable, and I've been putting a lot of work 2136 01:50:29,427 --> 01:50:32,707 Speaker 6: in over the winter, especially around the batting side of things, 2137 01:50:32,747 --> 01:50:35,227 Speaker 6: and I've been fortunate to work with a few coaches 2138 01:50:35,267 --> 01:50:38,867 Speaker 6: back home, and yeah, it's certainly been a continued work 2139 01:50:38,907 --> 01:50:42,067 Speaker 6: on and it's it's certainly something that I want to 2140 01:50:42,107 --> 01:50:44,387 Speaker 6: continue to grow in my game, because I know how 2141 01:50:44,427 --> 01:50:48,307 Speaker 6: big a contribution you can make, especially in test cricket, 2142 01:50:48,587 --> 01:50:50,907 Speaker 6: if you can, you know, get those extra runs at 2143 01:50:50,907 --> 01:50:53,827 Speaker 6: the lower, lower end of the order, it can certainly, 2144 01:50:53,987 --> 01:50:57,187 Speaker 6: you know, impact a game massively. So it is definitely 2145 01:50:57,227 --> 01:51:00,147 Speaker 6: an important part of the game. I certainly it's not something. 2146 01:50:59,867 --> 01:51:02,747 Speaker 20: That you know, we neglect. I guess it's. 2147 01:51:02,627 --> 01:51:05,467 Speaker 6: Something that we continue to grow and work on and hopefully, 2148 01:51:05,907 --> 01:51:08,187 Speaker 6: you know, pretty nice to kind of, you know, put 2149 01:51:08,227 --> 01:51:10,267 Speaker 6: some decent performances on the board from. 2150 01:51:10,107 --> 01:51:12,307 Speaker 20: That aspect as well, which would be quite special. 2151 01:51:12,747 --> 01:51:16,507 Speaker 3: When that first test gets underwey up against Afghanistan. I'm 2152 01:51:16,547 --> 01:51:18,707 Speaker 3: presuming you're going to be picked because they've put you 2153 01:51:18,787 --> 01:51:21,227 Speaker 3: up for media, so it makes sense to me that 2154 01:51:21,267 --> 01:51:23,707 Speaker 3: you will. This is a team not to be taken lightly. 2155 01:51:23,747 --> 01:51:25,547 Speaker 3: What do you know about them as a test nation? 2156 01:51:25,707 --> 01:51:28,707 Speaker 3: What do you fear? What do you respect a jazz. 2157 01:51:28,907 --> 01:51:33,987 Speaker 6: Well, I guess the unfamiliarity is always a difficult one, especially, 2158 01:51:34,027 --> 01:51:37,147 Speaker 6: I guess in international cricket generally, when you play an opposition, 2159 01:51:37,187 --> 01:51:40,107 Speaker 6: you've got a lot more information around their style of 2160 01:51:40,147 --> 01:51:42,507 Speaker 6: play and what they're going to bring. And I suppose 2161 01:51:42,907 --> 01:51:45,547 Speaker 6: the fact that they're still pretty young in terms of 2162 01:51:45,547 --> 01:51:49,827 Speaker 6: the Test playing nation, there's a lot to learn about them, 2163 01:51:49,827 --> 01:51:52,627 Speaker 6: and I guess for us as players where we're going 2164 01:51:52,667 --> 01:51:54,707 Speaker 6: to have to constantly be thinking on our feet and 2165 01:51:54,987 --> 01:51:56,507 Speaker 6: reacting to what we see. 2166 01:51:56,307 --> 01:51:57,427 Speaker 20: Out on the ground. 2167 01:51:57,507 --> 01:52:01,867 Speaker 6: And they've got immense talent and their passion for cricket, 2168 01:52:01,947 --> 01:52:06,827 Speaker 6: as we know, is unbelievable, and so what they've achieved 2169 01:52:06,827 --> 01:52:09,987 Speaker 6: and I guess the last eight to ten years in 2170 01:52:10,067 --> 01:52:13,387 Speaker 6: terms of a cricketing nation, has been pretty phenomenal. So 2171 01:52:13,667 --> 01:52:16,067 Speaker 6: there's certainly not a team to take lightly that. They've 2172 01:52:16,107 --> 01:52:18,227 Speaker 6: got a lot of talent in that group and a 2173 01:52:18,267 --> 01:52:21,267 Speaker 6: lot of guys who do have exposure of playing cricket 2174 01:52:21,307 --> 01:52:25,987 Speaker 6: around the world. So it will be challenging, especially I 2175 01:52:25,987 --> 01:52:28,427 Speaker 6: guess in these conditions, and we've just got to make 2176 01:52:28,467 --> 01:52:31,587 Speaker 6: sure that, you know, we treat them with the respect 2177 01:52:31,627 --> 01:52:34,347 Speaker 6: that they deserve and go out there and I guess 2178 01:52:34,387 --> 01:52:36,187 Speaker 6: you know, put our best foot forward and make sure 2179 01:52:36,227 --> 01:52:37,387 Speaker 6: that we really turn up. 2180 01:52:37,707 --> 01:52:40,667 Speaker 3: Well and keatie when the toss bowl. That's the idea, 2181 01:52:40,787 --> 01:52:43,467 Speaker 3: isn't it. Maybe a return to the good old days ages. 2182 01:52:43,947 --> 01:52:46,187 Speaker 3: Thanks for joining us, mate, great to have you back 2183 01:52:46,267 --> 01:52:49,827 Speaker 3: on board again.

This is what everybody looks forward to. This 2222 01:54:46,067 --> 01:54:49,267 Speaker 3: is it for American sport. What a way to start 2223 01:54:49,307 --> 01:54:49,707 Speaker 3: the season. 2224 01:54:49,747 --> 01:54:53,387 Speaker 8: Huh yeah, Hey, Darcy, this is the one sport that 2225 01:54:53,547 --> 01:54:57,787 Speaker 8: unites everybody. It's not regimented, and everyone's into the NFL here, 2226 01:54:57,827 --> 01:55:00,507 Speaker 8: so we we are fired up. It's been a soft 2227 01:55:00,587 --> 01:55:02,747 Speaker 8: launch so far. They've been a couple of games played. 2228 01:55:02,747 --> 01:55:07,107 Speaker 8: We've already had one dramatic finish between the Chiefs, the 2229 01:55:07,307 --> 01:55:11,787 Speaker 8: defending champions, and the Baltimore Ravens. The receiver, the tight 2230 01:55:11,867 --> 01:55:14,387 Speaker 8: end for the Ravens, couldn't get his feet in bounds. 2231 01:55:14,427 --> 01:55:17,067 Speaker 8: He had the feet were just out of bounds in 2232 01:55:17,147 --> 01:55:20,227 Speaker 8: the in line, and so Baltimore lost that game to 2233 01:55:20,307 --> 01:55:23,107 Speaker 8: Kansas City. And we've had our first injury, our first 2234 01:55:23,107 --> 01:55:25,867 Speaker 8: big injury, only two games end of the year, Darcy. 2235 01:55:25,947 --> 01:55:28,467 Speaker 8: The Green Bay Packers lost to the Eagles a game 2236 01:55:28,547 --> 01:55:33,147 Speaker 8: played in Brazil, amongst some controversy there in Brazil, and 2237 01:55:33,267 --> 01:55:36,187 Speaker 8: the quarterback for the Packers, just before the end of 2238 01:55:36,187 --> 01:55:40,147 Speaker 8: the game, Jordan Love, he injured his knee and he's 2239 01:55:40,187 --> 01:55:42,587 Speaker 8: going to be out for the next at least three weeks, 2240 01:55:42,627 --> 01:55:45,907 Speaker 8: probably longer than that. So the Packers, the Green Bay 2241 01:55:45,907 --> 01:55:48,827 Speaker 8: Packers are in a tough spot. And so that's how 2242 01:55:48,827 --> 01:55:51,867 Speaker 8: it begins. Two games in one dramatic finish and one 2243 01:55:51,907 --> 01:55:52,547 Speaker 8: big injury. 2244 01:55:52,947 --> 01:55:57,907 Speaker 3: Let's talk favorites right across both divisions, the AFC and 2245 01:55:57,987 --> 01:56:02,547 Speaker 3: the NFC. Where is that sit? You got a defending 2246 01:56:02,667 --> 01:56:05,027 Speaker 3: champion and I'm gonna start calling them, much to the 2247 01:56:05,147 --> 01:56:08,267 Speaker 3: chagrin of everybody, will as well. Are they a now 2248 01:56:08,467 --> 01:56:12,427 Speaker 3: going to be cold? The Kansas City Swifts? 2249 01:56:13,507 --> 01:56:16,387 Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, pretty much. Right, it's all about Taylor Swift's 2250 01:56:16,827 --> 01:56:18,947 Speaker 8: she's all over the marketing. Well, you got to start 2251 01:56:18,947 --> 01:56:21,227 Speaker 8: with that. We've not seen the Super Bowl has been 2252 01:56:21,267 --> 01:56:25,027 Speaker 8: around Darcy since the nineteen sixties and we've never seen 2253 01:56:25,067 --> 01:56:28,107 Speaker 8: a team win three in a row. And the Chiefs 2254 01:56:28,147 --> 01:56:31,867 Speaker 8: are the favorite with Patrick Mahomes and Taylor Swift to 2255 01:56:31,947 --> 01:56:35,907 Speaker 8: win their third straight championship this year. So we'll start 2256 01:56:35,907 --> 01:56:40,387 Speaker 8: with that. Kansas City the boring pick because you like 2257 01:56:40,467 --> 01:56:43,107 Speaker 8: to pick somebody new, but they're the top team. They've 2258 01:56:43,147 --> 01:56:46,467 Speaker 8: improved from last year even though they won the championship 2259 01:56:46,547 --> 01:56:49,347 Speaker 8: last year. And then on the other side of the conference, 2260 01:56:49,347 --> 01:56:51,267 Speaker 8: you've got the forty nine ers who were in the 2261 01:56:51,307 --> 01:56:55,667 Speaker 8: Super Bowl last year, the Detroit Lions. The Rams are 2262 01:56:55,707 --> 01:56:58,667 Speaker 8: also there. They lost Aaron Donald. They're a great defensive player. 2263 01:56:58,827 --> 01:57:00,827 Speaker 8: But as far as the Chiefs and Taylor Swift and 2264 01:57:00,827 --> 01:57:04,107 Speaker 8: Patrick Mahomes and all that. That's where the competition is. 2265 01:57:04,147 --> 01:57:07,547 Speaker 8: In that side of the NFL bracket. You've got teams 2266 01:57:07,547 --> 01:57:10,307 Speaker 8: like Baltimore, who took Kansas City down to the very 2267 01:57:10,427 --> 01:57:13,067 Speaker 8: end there in the mix. And then you look around 2268 01:57:13,147 --> 01:57:15,267 Speaker 8: some of the other teams that are pretty good this year. 2269 01:57:15,267 --> 01:57:19,867 Speaker 8: Cincinnati's got their quarterback back, Joe Burrow. He's there. The 2270 01:57:19,907 --> 01:57:23,267 Speaker 8: Houston Texans were a surprise team last year. They have 2271 01:57:23,307 --> 01:57:25,827 Speaker 8: a good young quarterback named CJ. Stroud, so they're getting 2272 01:57:25,867 --> 01:57:28,147 Speaker 8: a lot of attention, a lot of hype for Houston. 2273 01:57:29,027 --> 01:57:31,907 Speaker 8: So there's about five or six teams that are all 2274 01:57:32,067 --> 01:57:35,147 Speaker 8: the very top in the NFL, and then you've got 2275 01:57:35,147 --> 01:57:40,107 Speaker 8: a bunch of middle middleweight contenders I call the mid contenders. 2276 01:57:40,667 --> 01:57:42,947 Speaker 8: Jim Harbaugh, who was a good coach back in the 2277 01:57:42,987 --> 01:57:44,947 Speaker 8: day for the forty nine ers, he's back with the 2278 01:57:45,027 --> 01:57:48,787 Speaker 8: Chargers in LA where I'm based, and so he's back 2279 01:57:48,867 --> 01:57:51,347 Speaker 8: Darcy and his brother's coaching the Ravens, so they're back 2280 01:57:51,387 --> 01:57:54,187 Speaker 8: together in the NFL. So there's some of the teams 2281 01:57:54,187 --> 01:57:54,987 Speaker 8: to keep an eye on. 2282 01:57:55,387 --> 01:57:58,627 Speaker 3: Aside the teams, Fan Malow, what about players to look 2283 01:57:58,667 --> 01:58:01,547 Speaker 3: out for players that have popped through that maybe made 2284 01:58:02,107 --> 01:58:05,107 Speaker 3: a bit of a got a bit of traction last season, 2285 01:58:05,107 --> 01:58:08,227 Speaker 3: that are looking forward to doing something more as freshman, 2286 01:58:08,347 --> 01:58:10,427 Speaker 3: or some rookies who do you like to look off? 2287 01:58:11,867 --> 01:58:14,947 Speaker 8: Yeah, so the shiny new object, Darcy. There's a couple 2288 01:58:14,947 --> 01:58:17,747 Speaker 8: of new quarterbacks that have everyone yappened though. The big 2289 01:58:17,747 --> 01:58:20,067 Speaker 8: one is the Chicago Bears quarterback. They had the number 2290 01:58:20,107 --> 01:58:24,867 Speaker 8: one pick, Caleb Williams, who was a decorated college football player, 2291 01:58:25,027 --> 01:58:27,467 Speaker 8: and the Chicago Bears getting a lot of attention. They're 2292 01:58:27,467 --> 01:58:31,387 Speaker 8: actually a four point favorite over the Tennessee football team 2293 01:58:31,427 --> 01:58:34,507 Speaker 8: they play tomorrow. Here's an amazing factory, Derrick, Darcy. This 2294 01:58:34,587 --> 01:58:37,187 Speaker 8: is to surprise you. So if you go back in 2295 01:58:37,227 --> 01:58:39,827 Speaker 8: the history of the NFL, Caleb Williams has a rookie 2296 01:58:40,307 --> 01:58:43,627 Speaker 8: favored by four points in his debut. There has not 2297 01:58:43,787 --> 01:58:46,987 Speaker 8: been a quarterback favored by that many or more points 2298 01:58:47,027 --> 01:58:51,187 Speaker 8: since Terry Bradshaw over fifty years ago in nineteen seventy 2299 01:58:51,227 --> 01:58:54,267 Speaker 8: when he made his debut for the Pittsburgh Steelers, who 2300 01:58:54,307 --> 01:58:57,267 Speaker 8: had had a great defense at that time. So is 2301 01:58:57,307 --> 01:58:59,027 Speaker 8: a lot of hype around Caleb Williams, who is the 2302 01:58:59,107 --> 01:59:02,867 Speaker 8: number one pick, but There's several other rookie quarterbacks, including 2303 01:59:02,947 --> 01:59:05,787 Speaker 8: Jaden Daniels, who was also a guy that won a Heisman, 2304 01:59:05,987 --> 01:59:10,507 Speaker 8: the top warden college football. He's with the Washington football 2305 01:59:10,547 --> 01:59:16,027 Speaker 8: team now near the Capitol here of America at Washington DC, 2306 01:59:16,787 --> 01:59:18,907 Speaker 8: and he's getting a lot of attention. And I also 2307 01:59:18,947 --> 01:59:22,747 Speaker 8: mentioned CJ. Stroud. He's a sophomore second year player for 2308 01:59:22,947 --> 01:59:25,307 Speaker 8: the Houston Texans and he had one of the great 2309 01:59:25,387 --> 01:59:30,187 Speaker 8: rookie seasons. This guy was absolutely monster mashing for Tennessee 2310 01:59:30,267 --> 01:59:33,747 Speaker 8: last year, or for the Texans rather Houston Texans, and 2311 01:59:33,787 --> 01:59:37,027 Speaker 8: so he's back this year and he's getting a lot 2312 01:59:37,027 --> 01:59:39,667 Speaker 8: of attention. So those are the three young quarterbacks that 2313 01:59:39,707 --> 01:59:42,627 Speaker 8: are getting the most buzz as we head into the year. 2314 01:59:42,667 --> 01:59:45,227 Speaker 8: And there's also some quarterbacks that change teams like Kirk 2315 01:59:45,267 --> 01:59:48,187 Speaker 8: Cousins who had been a very good player when he 2316 01:59:48,267 --> 01:59:52,107 Speaker 8: was playing in Minnesota, a good regular season player. He's 2317 01:59:52,147 --> 01:59:55,627 Speaker 8: now on the Atlanta Falcons, so they're expected to be 2318 01:59:55,627 --> 02:00:00,187 Speaker 8: better this year. And the Pittsburgh Steelers have two new quarterbacks. 2319 02:00:00,227 --> 02:00:03,267 Speaker 8: They got Russell Wilson, who was supposed to start from 2320 02:00:03,307 --> 02:00:06,267 Speaker 8: the old Seattle Seahawks and Denver Broncos in the swit 2321 02:00:06,347 --> 02:00:10,547 Speaker 8: Super Bowl and Russell Wilson's injured, so he's not gonna start. 2322 02:00:10,627 --> 02:00:14,947 Speaker 8: And Justin Fields, who was with the Chicago Bears last year, 2323 02:00:14,987 --> 02:00:17,587 Speaker 8: he's gonna start now for the Atlanta or for the 2324 02:00:17,907 --> 02:00:21,827 Speaker 8: Steelers against the Falcons in that game that'll be played tomorrow. 2325 02:00:21,907 --> 02:00:25,107 Speaker 8: So there's a lot of musical chairs that happen every year. 2326 02:00:25,107 --> 02:00:27,307 Speaker 8: There's a bunch of coaches that have changed as well, 2327 02:00:27,387 --> 02:00:30,947 Speaker 8: So it's it's a new beginning in the NFL. And 2328 02:00:31,387 --> 02:00:33,227 Speaker 8: we're excited because just to go all the way till 2329 02:00:33,307 --> 02:00:35,827 Speaker 8: mid February when they played the Super Bowl. 2330 02:00:36,027 --> 02:00:39,027 Speaker 3: Years ago when we first started broadcasting together, I mean 2331 02:00:39,387 --> 02:00:42,747 Speaker 3: years ago. We're talking decades now. I think I said 2332 02:00:42,747 --> 02:00:44,827 Speaker 3: I wanted to follow a team, and you said, you 2333 02:00:44,907 --> 02:00:47,547 Speaker 3: need to follow this train, Rake, and you gave me 2334 02:00:47,627 --> 02:00:50,387 Speaker 3: the Jacksonville Jaguars. Have they got any chance? 2335 02:00:51,907 --> 02:00:53,827 Speaker 8: Well, they're not as bad as they were back then. Yeah, 2336 02:00:53,827 --> 02:00:55,107 Speaker 8: that was a long time ago, Darcy. 2337 02:00:55,147 --> 02:00:55,387 Speaker 11: They were. 2338 02:00:55,347 --> 02:00:58,627 Speaker 8: They were an embarrassment. They were a laughing stock, just 2339 02:00:58,707 --> 02:01:02,987 Speaker 8: an absolute outhouse of a football team. So they were embarrassing. 2340 02:01:03,027 --> 02:01:06,147 Speaker 8: But they're now. They were supposed to be good last 2341 02:01:06,187 --> 02:01:10,147 Speaker 8: year year and they disappointed this year. They're kind of 2342 02:01:10,147 --> 02:01:14,867 Speaker 8: a middleweight contender. They have talent. They paid their quarterback, 2343 02:01:15,667 --> 02:01:19,027 Speaker 8: mister Lawrence, a ton of money and he did not 2344 02:01:19,187 --> 02:01:20,867 Speaker 8: have a great year list. It's kind of bizarre they 2345 02:01:20,907 --> 02:01:23,187 Speaker 8: gave him so much money considering that he did not 2346 02:01:23,307 --> 02:01:23,787 Speaker 8: live up. 2347 02:01:23,667 --> 02:01:24,307 Speaker 3: To the hype. 2348 02:01:24,467 --> 02:01:27,107 Speaker 8: But they're not the worst, and they're not at the top. 2349 02:01:27,147 --> 02:01:29,467 Speaker 8: They're somewhere in the middle. But at least that's better 2350 02:01:29,507 --> 02:01:32,707 Speaker 8: than they were when we started talking all those years back, Darcy. 2351 02:01:33,067 --> 02:01:35,547 Speaker 8: And they had to wear a bag over your head 2352 02:01:35,587 --> 02:01:36,507 Speaker 8: because they were so bad. 2353 02:01:37,267 --> 02:01:39,627 Speaker 3: And I knew that, and I get don following them. 2354 02:01:39,747 --> 02:01:43,907 Speaker 3: They're the great Blake Botel's era wasn't very good, but 2355 02:01:43,947 --> 02:01:46,627 Speaker 3: at least I won some games under him, right being 2356 02:01:47,027 --> 02:01:50,027 Speaker 3: great to Katjan, we're gonna do it again, so mate, 2357 02:01:50,067 --> 02:01:53,067 Speaker 3: you look after yourself. Go well, and next time we talk, 2358 02:01:53,147 --> 02:01:57,187 Speaker 3: you can give me a schoolcard on the Jockocracy that's 2359 02:01:57,227 --> 02:02:01,467 Speaker 3: still running.
