This is the Agenda Podcast for Monday, the 0:00:08.200 --> 0:00:09.160 seventeenth of June. 0:00:10.000 --> 0:00:14.280 The Agenda Podcast, the home of Sporting nonsense and clap Trap, 0:00:14.680 --> 0:00:16.599 brought to you by Export of Vulture. 0:00:17.760 --> 0:00:19.880 Welcome into the podcast. At the time of recording, it's 0:00:19.880 --> 0:00:22.239 about ten oh seven, so we're watching the final round 0:00:22.280 --> 0:00:24.919 of the US Open. Rory McElroy has just knocked the 0:00:24.960 --> 0:00:28.880 ball off his tea accidentally on the sixteenth hole. He 0:00:28.960 --> 0:00:31.160 still has a share of the lead at six under 0:00:31.280 --> 0:00:35.600 d Chambeau though really really walking him down with a 0:00:35.640 --> 0:00:38.960 hole in hand, so we will be watching that nervously. 0:00:39.080 --> 0:00:43.680 We got on Scheffler, he didn't even make the cut. 0:00:44.120 --> 0:00:45.519 I still don't think it was a bit. I mean, 0:00:45.520 --> 0:00:49.239 obviously hindsight so I don't think it was a bad 0:00:49.280 --> 0:00:53.880 bit McElroy. I mean, my theory was that the biggest 0:00:53.920 --> 0:00:57.120 hindrance to my golfing experience is that my partner's at home. 0:00:57.160 --> 0:00:58.240 Be like, when you're gonna be home. 0:00:58.360 --> 0:01:01.000 How long are you going to be holes take? Yeah, 0:01:01.160 --> 0:01:02.840 well it depends. It depends how many people are on 0:01:02.840 --> 0:01:04.840 the course and when you're going to be back wasted 0:01:04.920 --> 0:01:07.760 after that? Yeah, so do you think that affects your game? 0:01:07.800 --> 0:01:10.040 And I thought that, well, I thought that surely if 0:01:10.080 --> 0:01:13.120 he had no partner, oh, he's just headed into a buget. 0:01:13.959 --> 0:01:16.840 I thought for sure that if he if he you 0:01:16.880 --> 0:01:20.480 don't have someone nagging, eliminated that, Yeah, then surely that 0:01:20.520 --> 0:01:23.400 would only impact them. I guess I don't get golf. 0:01:23.880 --> 0:01:25.520 I guess I just don't understand golf. 0:01:25.560 --> 0:01:27.320 Yeah, we did predict that he can't close a divorce, 0:01:27.360 --> 0:01:28.440 he won't go to close a major. 0:01:28.600 --> 0:01:30.479 I mean he still has two holes to shit shit 0:01:30.560 --> 0:01:30.800 the bed. 0:01:30.880 --> 0:01:31.600 Yeah, that's true. 0:01:32.080 --> 0:01:35.640 It's true as Semipenny Fee now lines up a half 0:01:35.640 --> 0:01:37.800 back and absolutely draws him into the turf. Massive weekend 0:01:37.840 --> 0:01:41.400 to sport, but also a massive weekend for you as well. Lane. 0:01:41.440 --> 0:01:43.919 You you hosted a fundraiser over the weekend. 0:01:43.959 --> 0:01:46.680 Yeah, the North Shore Rugby Club Junior Quiz Night. When 0:01:46.720 --> 0:01:49.800 I say juniors, it was the parents of the juniors. Yeah. 0:01:49.880 --> 0:01:51.920 So two hundred and eighty people crammed into the club, 0:01:52.120 --> 0:01:55.120 had a quez as dress ups. The level of steam 0:01:55.280 --> 0:01:58.040 was quite something, but the perfect level of steam to 0:01:58.120 --> 0:02:00.720 rinse them of enough money so yeah, thirty four grand 0:02:00.720 --> 0:02:03.560 we raised at the club to help buy some new 0:02:03.600 --> 0:02:07.040 shirts and new jerseys and whatnot. It's a tough crowd. 0:02:07.240 --> 0:02:10.200 It's like kind of you know, kids, kids listen to 0:02:10.240 --> 0:02:13.120 adults when they shout because you know there's consequences, you know, 0:02:13.200 --> 0:02:17.320 you you know, adults are far worse because there's no consequence. 0:02:17.320 --> 0:02:20.120 They don't care. And so it was quite an unruly crowd. 0:02:20.440 --> 0:02:23.360 I might have said shut the fuck up maybe twenty times, 0:02:23.680 --> 0:02:26.200 and I actually just started just pointing out individual people 0:02:26.240 --> 0:02:27.640 and telling them to shut the fuck up. And I 0:02:27.680 --> 0:02:31.320 got accused of picking on a certain gender. No, no, 0:02:31.400 --> 0:02:32.679 it's going to do a genders. You just want to 0:02:32.680 --> 0:02:35.359 shut the fuck up, okay, so that the problem is you, 0:02:35.400 --> 0:02:38.240 not me. And so afterwards it was quite funny, but 0:02:38.240 --> 0:02:41.639 a feedback was like jeezu got stuck into it, didn't you. 0:02:41.680 --> 0:02:43.240 And I was like, well, she wouldn't shut the fuck up. 0:02:44.080 --> 0:02:46.760 And then another guy whose gag all night was to 0:02:46.840 --> 0:02:50.080 yell Jonathan Thurston at me every question, so you go 0:02:50.160 --> 0:02:55.560 get what touches that he goes, And I just had 0:02:55.560 --> 0:02:58.160 to stop and said, mate, if you're yelling Jonathan Thurston 0:02:58.240 --> 0:03:01.359 at me, you actually sound I'm a little bit retarded, 0:03:01.760 --> 0:03:03.240 and as soon as I said the word retarded, I 0:03:03.240 --> 0:03:04.440 was like, oh god, I'm going to get hit up 0:03:04.440 --> 0:03:08.520 after the quiz with someone who's got a But luckily not. 0:03:08.600 --> 0:03:11.280 They kind of found the joint and he kept on 0:03:11.320 --> 0:03:12.760 saying it, and then I had to go down the 0:03:12.760 --> 0:03:14.560 whole care a line. Is his carer here? Can his 0:03:14.600 --> 0:03:15.840 care please come take him away? 0:03:17.200 --> 0:03:20.520 I guess his problem at that point was obviously also 0:03:21.000 --> 0:03:22.000 really probably wasted. 0:03:22.280 --> 0:03:22.480 Ah. 0:03:23.000 --> 0:03:24.760 But I think his problem is once he'd called it out, 0:03:25.400 --> 0:03:28.880 he couldn't back down, and so now his only choice 0:03:28.919 --> 0:03:33.320 was to just keep yelling. Jonathan Thurston, it is tough, 0:03:33.440 --> 0:03:36.360 particularly when I presume you probably weren't drinking as much 0:03:36.400 --> 0:03:37.400 as nice to them. 0:03:37.360 --> 0:03:40.280 No, because they had to organize it all. And look, 0:03:40.960 --> 0:03:42.960 my advice would be, if you're going to run a 0:03:43.040 --> 0:03:45.120 quiz and a rugby club, all the parents, they're all 0:03:45.160 --> 0:03:47.520 dressed up. It was a great night and normally we 0:03:47.600 --> 0:03:49.520 clear the tables away and started a dance floor, but 0:03:49.560 --> 0:03:51.680 everyone got up and just started dancing on their chairs, 0:03:52.520 --> 0:03:54.360 so we couldn't remove the tables because they were just 0:03:54.360 --> 0:03:56.440 going crazy. There was a whole it was like the 0:03:56.440 --> 0:03:59.400 Adam's family table there was a table dress as Margaret Thatcher. 0:03:59.680 --> 0:04:02.920 There was the best table was the Kenan Barbie table, 0:04:03.280 --> 0:04:07.160 and they all bought like lightcra fluo gym outfits. But 0:04:07.320 --> 0:04:09.480 all the it was it's couples, mainly just you know, 0:04:09.560 --> 0:04:11.520 husband and wives because their kids are all playing there. 0:04:12.040 --> 0:04:14.000 The husbands were in charge of the costumes and they 0:04:14.240 --> 0:04:18.560 ordered like a two smaller leotards for their partners, so 0:04:18.600 --> 0:04:21.279 their partners had these hot pants and basically g string 0:04:21.400 --> 0:04:25.080 leotards and all the duds of us going. The girls 0:04:25.080 --> 0:04:27.960 were not happy, but really one that was one for 0:04:28.000 --> 0:04:31.200 the dads. No, there was Cowboys, there was Broke Back Mountain. 0:04:31.880 --> 0:04:34.599 There was Baby Reindeer. One table was Baby Reindeer and 0:04:34.600 --> 0:04:36.720 one of the girls dressed up as the Crazy Check 0:04:36.760 --> 0:04:40.359 and spitting image of her. It was scary. It was 0:04:40.800 --> 0:04:44.279 dangerously a couple of bad, bad Santa tables. 0:04:44.279 --> 0:04:44.479 It was. 0:04:44.520 --> 0:04:48.480 It was one of the great nights, but I ended 0:04:48.560 --> 0:04:53.760 up Do you enjoy this? On Saturday after the Chiefs 0:04:53.839 --> 0:04:59.600 game finished, the Chiefs game was pretty pumped, and I 0:04:59.640 --> 0:05:03.120 went to the toilet and had a small issue with 0:05:03.160 --> 0:05:06.240 my bow. Now I just had a cold oscarp ten 0:05:06.320 --> 0:05:10.279 days ago. Anyway, Okay, long story short, I ended up 0:05:10.279 --> 0:05:13.360 in norseial hospital all day useterday, losing a leader of 0:05:13.360 --> 0:05:18.800 blood out nurse oh shit, and it was so it 0:05:18.880 --> 0:05:22.839 was mildly annoying, but obviously something had happened down there, 0:05:22.880 --> 0:05:25.040 and so I was losing a lot of blood debt 0:05:25.120 --> 0:05:27.719 down there every time, and I couldn't trust a fart, 0:05:27.920 --> 0:05:30.040 and early on I didn't really know what was going on. 0:05:30.360 --> 0:05:32.800 And I went to a party on Saturday night. It 0:05:32.880 --> 0:05:34.599 was like a big ball, like everyone was dressed up 0:05:34.680 --> 0:05:38.080 quite flash and I went. Luckily, the toilets were full, 0:05:38.120 --> 0:05:40.880 so I went outside and peede in the bush, right, 0:05:40.920 --> 0:05:43.680 but I peed in the bush and I trusted a fart, 0:05:44.720 --> 0:05:45.680 completely shat. 0:05:45.480 --> 0:05:49.560 Myself on Saturday night. 0:05:50.520 --> 0:05:54.440 Yeah, And so luckily the ball was only about five 0:05:54.760 --> 0:05:56.520 meters from my house and I was outside in the 0:05:56.600 --> 0:05:58.479 dark and no one witnessed it. Let's see it, So 0:05:58.560 --> 0:06:00.680 I just gapped it back home. Kids are all away 0:06:00.680 --> 0:06:02.000 with the baby, said what do you do? He goes, 0:06:02.080 --> 0:06:06.120 it'spilt red wine on my jeans, Run upstairs and shower, 0:06:07.120 --> 0:06:08.440 wash the jeans out, and. 0:06:08.400 --> 0:06:09.440 Went back and went back. 0:06:09.680 --> 0:06:11.440 But I went back, so I had to explain my absence. 0:06:11.440 --> 0:06:13.080 And then I went home again, and then throughout the 0:06:13.160 --> 0:06:16.560 night I lost a lot of blood because I just 0:06:16.600 --> 0:06:18.280 get coming out like the only thing holding it in 0:06:18.320 --> 0:06:20.560 was my sphincter. Anyway, to cut a long story short, 0:06:20.560 --> 0:06:22.479 I spent the day in Norse hospital. I was fine, 0:06:22.960 --> 0:06:27.520 the bleeding stopped, but the nurse and the emergency department 0:06:27.839 --> 0:06:31.640 in the surgical department, his name was Brittany, and Brittany 0:06:31.680 --> 0:06:36.160 was really lovely, young doctor, blonde, kind of dark eyes. 0:06:36.480 --> 0:06:38.240 Did she walk in. Did she walk in and say 0:06:38.279 --> 0:06:39.080 it's Brittany bitch. 0:06:40.360 --> 0:06:43.800 No, but she was lovely, but she's kind of had 0:06:43.839 --> 0:06:47.599 to say sorry, I'm going to have to and I'm like, 0:06:48.600 --> 0:06:50.680 this is this is you don't have to. I said, 0:06:50.680 --> 0:06:51.880 you don't have to do this, and she goes, I 0:06:51.960 --> 0:06:53.760 kind of have to, you don't have to. She has 0:06:53.800 --> 0:06:57.200 no idea, So I had to roll over and this 0:06:57.360 --> 0:07:04.039 young blond Brittany's Britney Spears type doctor had to then look. 0:07:04.080 --> 0:07:05.880 It was the highlight and the low light of my 0:07:05.960 --> 0:07:09.280 time in hospital was getting a finger in my arts, 0:07:10.280 --> 0:07:11.360 young blond. 0:07:14.160 --> 0:07:16.120 And what she Dolet you back up again. 0:07:16.000 --> 0:07:17.520 No, she just had to look around here just to 0:07:17.520 --> 0:07:19.360 see it. Because the bleeding had stopped with them, so 0:07:19.400 --> 0:07:20.880 it was fine, but so they sent me home. But 0:07:20.920 --> 0:07:23.040 it was a good eight hours in hospital. It's not 0:07:23.080 --> 0:07:25.240 a great place hospital, but geezy or some crazies there. 0:07:25.280 --> 0:07:29.119 Holy shit, it's the grading hospital. Apart from the finger 0:07:29.160 --> 0:07:30.840 up the ass. It was a really terrible Sunday. 0:07:31.000 --> 0:07:34.640 Yeah, so what that the camera knocked something looser? 0:07:34.720 --> 0:07:37.280 Yeah, yeah, they took they took something out. They took 0:07:37.280 --> 0:07:40.400 a little pollop out and that just ruptured again where 0:07:40.400 --> 0:07:40.880 they took it. 0:07:40.800 --> 0:07:42.560 Out when you trusted that fart. 0:07:43.000 --> 0:07:43.920 Yeah, I don't like. 0:07:44.200 --> 0:07:45.040 That's the worst. 0:07:45.040 --> 0:07:46.360 And they had to come back and they go what 0:07:46.440 --> 0:07:49.080 you mean?

I liked it. 0:07:57.880 --> 0:08:00.480 Think that the guy that was yelling Jonathan that you 0:08:00.520 --> 0:08:02.640 told you that the funk up was listening to this podcast. 0:08:03.080 --> 0:08:07.360 It suck it sucked, suck itw of a weekend. 0:08:07.400 --> 0:08:08.160 Hell have a weekend. 0:08:08.240 --> 0:08:09.880 I was saying that it was it was a massive 0:08:10.160 --> 0:08:12.040 weekend of sport, but it actually wasn't. It was a 0:08:12.040 --> 0:08:14.640 massive Friday and Saturday sports Sunday rather run a vent 0:08:14.680 --> 0:08:17.040 for up until now, and I've now found out that 0:08:17.120 --> 0:08:20.440 you had enough events on Sunday for us all, let's 0:08:20.440 --> 0:08:24.280 get into the actual sport because the semi finals kicked off. 0:08:24.280 --> 0:08:25.920 We're going to go in reverse order because I think 0:08:25.920 --> 0:08:28.960 the most important game was the Chiefs verse the Canes. 0:08:29.000 --> 0:08:30.679 Here's how the end of that one sounded. 0:08:31.200 --> 0:08:34.680 Time is up on the top, Time is up, Chiefs. 0:08:38.120 --> 0:08:39.840 Rome's got it. He'll kick it into us. 0:08:39.960 --> 0:08:44.400 Yeah, the Chiefs manner. They went the semifinal thirty Wants 0:08:44.440 --> 0:08:47.720 the Night Day, Yes, news. 0:08:58.480 --> 0:09:00.720 It Mane was in the thirty point to nineteen and 0:09:00.760 --> 0:09:03.080 the n You and mcconiy and at one point through 0:09:03.120 --> 0:09:05.320 the commentary, mcconie just left to go make yourself a 0:09:05.320 --> 0:09:06.040 cup and say whatever. 0:09:06.120 --> 0:09:10.120 Man, he was an absolute wreck, like mconie, absolute wreck. 0:09:10.200 --> 0:09:11.280 He So that was nerves. 0:09:11.320 --> 0:09:13.200 It's nerves. He couldn't handle it. He was leaving this, 0:09:13.320 --> 0:09:15.160 he was leaving the commentary box. He was going to 0:09:15.160 --> 0:09:17.320 make cups of teas, leaving me on my own. It's like, 0:09:17.600 --> 0:09:19.679 not that I wasn't nervous. I'm a bigger cheese man 0:09:19.679 --> 0:09:22.040 a fan than him. And but you've got to do 0:09:22.120 --> 0:09:24.800 your job. Yeah, but he just chose Nah, I'm out, 0:09:24.800 --> 0:09:26.480 I'm gonna go make it a cap of tea, Like, 0:09:27.000 --> 0:09:29.400 go have a stiff whiskey or something, come back with 0:09:29.440 --> 0:09:30.920 a tea, your massive puss. 0:09:30.960 --> 0:09:34.120 But also like in the middle of a live broadcast, yeah, 0:09:34.280 --> 0:09:37.560 glass of water. Maybe I can understand if you're choking. Yeah, 0:09:37.600 --> 0:09:40.280 but to go and like put the kettle on, get 0:09:40.320 --> 0:09:42.360 the tea, beg, wait for the tea. He wait for 0:09:42.400 --> 0:09:44.120 the tea, check the milk is it off? 0:09:44.200 --> 0:09:46.040 Yeah, and then come back and then just not even 0:09:46.040 --> 0:09:50.360 contribute either, just go. But yeah, we got a lot 0:09:50.360 --> 0:09:53.319 of criticism, as we always do through the text machine. 0:09:53.320 --> 0:09:56.079 I'm surprised any Hurricanes fans tuned in Dioskuysport nine or 0:09:56.080 --> 0:10:00.400 iHeartRadio for that because it was blatantly one side were 0:10:00.520 --> 0:10:01.680 yelling at the yellow cards. 0:10:02.000 --> 0:10:03.800 But I think that this is the thing about us, 0:10:03.920 --> 0:10:08.080 is that we are the only clearly biased commentary team 0:10:08.360 --> 0:10:10.520 that don't pretend to be anything else. Yeah. I feel 0:10:10.559 --> 0:10:13.520 like the mainstream commentary is quite often just as biased, 0:10:13.520 --> 0:10:16.760 but they pretend to be unbiased, like bo shit, we 0:10:16.840 --> 0:10:18.560 know you've got an allegiance here. 0:10:18.640 --> 0:10:21.079 They played well the Chiefs, and how if I was 0:10:21.120 --> 0:10:23.280 the Blues, I'd be shaking him in boots. 0:10:23.320 --> 0:10:26.000 They played and incredibly, that's not how I saw that 0:10:26.040 --> 0:10:28.600 game going at all, and also I felt like Wellington 0:10:28.760 --> 0:10:32.560 really did not get They couldn't string things together. They 0:10:32.600 --> 0:10:35.480 were knocking it on. They looked awful, and I felt like, 0:10:35.480 --> 0:10:36.840 even though I didn't have a dog in the fight, 0:10:36.840 --> 0:10:39.920 I actually quite felt bad for Caine's fans because I 0:10:39.920 --> 0:10:42.000 was like, this is disappointing. Every time they try and 0:10:42.040 --> 0:10:44.840 get something going, it doesn't happen. And then there's tries 0:10:44.840 --> 0:10:47.640 that the Chiefs were scoring. We're out of nowhere. They 0:10:47.640 --> 0:10:51.440 were miraculous, a lot of them. Side Teddy Wallace side 0:10:51.520 --> 0:10:54.160 titd The power of the side Teddy was on full 0:10:54.160 --> 0:10:56.480 display on the weekend. Yeah, they were saying it's an 0:10:56.480 --> 0:10:58.640 audition for the number eight for the All Blacks Jersey. 0:10:58.800 --> 0:11:00.840 I think Hoskins Titutu has something to say about that. 0:11:01.280 --> 0:11:05.640 But Wallace side Todd looked absolutely incredible. He was into everything. 0:11:05.880 --> 0:11:08.400 He doesn't look like he's a massively imposing dude. He's 0:11:08.440 --> 0:11:11.200 probably like a bit more of a rangy sort of 0:11:11.360 --> 0:11:11.840 number eight. 0:11:12.000 --> 0:11:13.959 He's quick off the back though when he comes to 0:11:14.000 --> 0:11:16.320 the back he just scoops and goes. It's like almost 0:11:16.400 --> 0:11:20.360 too quick it is. He looked excellent. The power of 0:11:20.360 --> 0:11:21.800 the side tity was distracting. 0:11:22.120 --> 0:11:23.880 It is distracting, you know, when you know when there's 0:11:23.880 --> 0:11:26.680 one in the room, you can't help but look at it. 0:11:27.000 --> 0:11:29.319 He tried not to, and I think that too often. 0:11:29.320 --> 0:11:31.960 The Hurricanes got caught looking at the side today and 0:11:31.960 --> 0:11:33.480 that's where they fell down a little bit. 0:11:33.520 --> 0:11:34.040 I agree. 0:11:34.200 --> 0:11:36.160 I think the nar Wall as well had a had 0:11:36.200 --> 0:11:37.120 a you know. 0:11:37.240 --> 0:11:39.360 How was the how was the one handed trickery? He 0:11:39.440 --> 0:11:42.720 was going waving the ball around like a wand I 0:11:42.760 --> 0:11:45.120 mean just passing. I think the gag is, what the 0:11:45.120 --> 0:11:47.600 fuck are you doing? Side of hands? 0:11:49.840 --> 0:11:51.360 It's back here. It was like a was like a 0:11:51.360 --> 0:11:53.720 card trick that is a coach killer if that doesn't 0:11:53.720 --> 0:11:56.040 go to hand. I think he got away with one there, Yes, 0:11:56.120 --> 0:11:57.640 because I was watching it as he was doing it. 0:11:57.679 --> 0:11:59.840 He did it twice, the old arm over the top, 0:12:00.320 --> 0:12:02.800 and then he did a like backhand flickause. 0:12:02.360 --> 0:12:04.080 It all requires as one player just to whack his 0:12:04.160 --> 0:12:04.440 arms to. 0:12:04.440 --> 0:12:07.360 Whack the arm. Yeah. And then because he when he 0:12:07.440 --> 0:12:09.120 was taking off with the ball in one hand, he 0:12:09.120 --> 0:12:10.960 didn't need to. He could have had it in both hands. 0:12:10.960 --> 0:12:13.240 He was about ten minutes away for the nearest defender 0:12:13.280 --> 0:12:15.079 and he already knew what he was gonna do. It's 0:12:15.120 --> 0:12:16.920 like I'm gonna do some windmill bullshit and then a 0:12:16.960 --> 0:12:19.400 backhand flick the female for a try. If it comes off, 0:12:19.440 --> 0:12:22.120 it looks amazing. That's exactly what happened. I think he 0:12:22.520 --> 0:12:24.200 probably has to be on one of the wings for 0:12:24.200 --> 0:12:25.000 the All Blacks this year. 0:12:25.080 --> 0:12:27.080 Yeah, well he was. He was a definite starter before 0:12:27.080 --> 0:12:28.520 the World Cup before he did. 0:12:28.400 --> 0:12:29.199 His bad at his back. 0:12:29.280 --> 0:12:33.160 And look, the Hurricanes don't despair. You've got a good team, 0:12:33.280 --> 0:12:35.760 and they are a young team, and that entire squad 0:12:35.800 --> 0:12:36.760 will be back next year. 0:12:36.880 --> 0:12:37.160 Yeah. 0:12:37.240 --> 0:12:39.000 There is no one in that team that I don't 0:12:39.040 --> 0:12:43.240 believe is going overseas or going anywhere, so they'll only 0:12:43.280 --> 0:12:43.720 get better. 0:12:43.960 --> 0:12:47.360 So and you had some big outs as well some injuries. Yeah, 0:12:47.679 --> 0:12:49.480 so yeah, I agree with you. I think it was 0:12:49.520 --> 0:12:51.920 probably just a year too early. This is probably about 0:12:51.960 --> 0:12:55.080 where the season. I think that I if I was 0:12:55.120 --> 0:12:57.160 a Canes fan, I would have took myself and do 0:12:57.280 --> 0:12:59.640 we're going to win the whole thing this year, But 0:13:00.000 --> 0:13:00.840 fortunately not to be. 0:13:01.120 --> 0:13:02.800 But you know what, Canes fans, he didn't deserve to 0:13:02.840 --> 0:13:06.040 win because he couldn't even sell out the stadium sky 0:13:06.080 --> 0:13:10.240 Stadium on a Saturday afternoon for where it was great 0:13:11.400 --> 0:13:14.040 semi final versus the Chiefs, and still there were probably 0:13:14.080 --> 0:13:15.560 about ten thousand empty seats. 0:13:15.640 --> 0:13:18.120 Yeah, I will say it looked a damn sight better 0:13:18.160 --> 0:13:20.880 than Eden Park did on the Friday night. True, that 0:13:21.120 --> 0:13:24.400 was dismal that one ended thirty four points to twenty, 0:13:24.440 --> 0:13:26.240 But to be honest, that game was all over after 0:13:26.280 --> 0:13:29.960 about twenty minutes. The Chiefs the Blues rather, they scored 0:13:30.000 --> 0:13:33.120 about twenty points in the first twenty minutes and after 0:13:33.200 --> 0:13:36.320 that it was quite honestly a bit of Yeah, it 0:13:36.400 --> 0:13:38.760 was turgid. It was a bit of a blowout. We 0:13:38.800 --> 0:13:40.839 were taking texts on three two, three six when was 0:13:40.880 --> 0:13:43.160 your latest or biggest blowout? A lot of those we 0:13:43.160 --> 0:13:45.800 couldn't we couldn't broadcast, and we're pretty loose on the broadcast. 0:13:46.920 --> 0:13:49.400 There was a massive dry spell for the Brumbies with 0:13:49.480 --> 0:13:51.199 that didn't score, so we asked people to text in 0:13:51.240 --> 0:13:54.680 their give spells. It was so sad. It was so 0:13:54.760 --> 0:13:57.959 sad we had been that as well, because the people 0:13:58.000 --> 0:14:03.319 just like, am I even capable of love anymore? But yeah, 0:14:03.360 --> 0:14:06.240 I think just a dismal, dismal turnout, and unfortunately for 0:14:06.400 --> 0:14:08.880 Super Rugby, the Blues will be hosting the final. 0:14:08.640 --> 0:14:12.160 Now no, but hey, the Manabus convoy is coming. Yeah, 0:14:12.200 --> 0:14:15.560 I shit you not. That motorway is going to be choker. 0:14:15.800 --> 0:14:18.760 They've got we've got the expressway. Now, we've got the 0:14:18.800 --> 0:14:21.880 bypass Huntly Bypass. Yeah, the Manabus convoy. 0:14:21.960 --> 0:14:22.240 I reckon. 0:14:22.320 --> 0:14:25.160 There's going to be at least ten to twenty thousand 0:14:25.320 --> 0:14:28.640 chiefs fans will make the trip up the motorway. Leave early, 0:14:29.000 --> 0:14:31.960 leave early for shit. Yeah where you want to leave midday? 0:14:32.200 --> 0:14:34.280 This is why I can't understand why. Like I know 0:14:34.360 --> 0:14:37.320 there is a train, but great Prebble from Radio Hodak 0:14:37.400 --> 0:14:39.680 he lives in Hamilton. Even he doesn't take the train. 0:14:39.720 --> 0:14:41.800 It's quicker to drive. It's quicker to drive, it's quicker 0:14:41.840 --> 0:14:45.040 to run. Which is ridiculous because there should be like 0:14:45.120 --> 0:14:47.240 it's only an hour in theory, it should be an 0:14:47.240 --> 0:14:48.840 hour by train from Hamilton to Auckland. 0:14:48.920 --> 0:14:50.240 Mana train, Get the mana train. 0:14:50.360 --> 0:14:52.520 You're telling me you couldn't get people on to just 0:14:52.600 --> 0:14:54.800 piss up on the train all the way through to Auckland, 0:14:54.920 --> 0:14:57.320 go to the game and then go home. That's ridiculous 0:14:57.360 --> 0:14:58.160 that that can't happen. 0:14:58.200 --> 0:14:59.680 Well, they'll have to they have to catch the train 0:14:59.680 --> 0:15:01.760 all in to Brita Mart and then catch another one 0:15:01.760 --> 0:15:02.520 out to Eden Park. 0:15:02.760 --> 0:15:04.560 It's just insane to me. 0:15:04.720 --> 0:15:07.280 I book out, book out every single Simpson's bus or 0:15:07.320 --> 0:15:11.240 whatever it is Hamilton Company and get the convoy going. Stop, 0:15:11.320 --> 0:15:14.920 stop at the rangulary for a bear and then just 0:15:15.000 --> 0:15:17.560 climb as his old school. This is like the old 0:15:17.560 --> 0:15:21.240 school kind of early nineties Ramfley shield challenges and used 0:15:21.240 --> 0:15:24.080 together at the Hillcrest. They used to book twenty buses 0:15:24.480 --> 0:15:26.440 but back of wind screens were getting kicked out on 0:15:26.480 --> 0:15:29.720 the motorway, Roll and drop us off at terraces, have 0:15:29.800 --> 0:15:32.320 a massive rumble under the terraces, get back on the 0:15:32.320 --> 0:15:34.000 bus and head back to the hilly and be home 0:15:34.040 --> 0:15:36.960 by ten. So that's I'm looking forward to that. 0:15:37.000 --> 0:15:39.360 So the Mona bus is coming this weekend. We just 0:15:39.360 --> 0:15:43.960 saw Bryson di Chambeau leave a part short on the seventeenth. 0:15:44.120 --> 0:15:47.600 Him and macauroy is still tied on six unders. That 0:15:47.680 --> 0:15:48.600 could be the death of him. 0:15:48.600 --> 0:15:51.400 Hey have been the weekend. Also big weekend, well big Saturday. 0:15:52.520 --> 0:15:56.280 We had the winner of our export Ultra Beergarden two. 0:15:56.360 --> 0:16:00.000 Big congratulations to James Hunt. Yes him and a mate 0:16:00.080 --> 0:16:01.480 will be joining us in Munich. 0:16:01.520 --> 0:16:02.560 He sounded pretty fized up. 0:16:02.640 --> 0:16:04.840 Yeah, he had his mates around are watching the footy 0:16:04.880 --> 0:16:06.880 as well, so he's going to have to choose between 0:16:06.880 --> 0:16:08.280 his friends. Now, who's going to go? 0:16:08.480 --> 0:16:12.280 One of them gave a great audition, yes, but byes 0:16:12.320 --> 0:16:15.800 just screaming in the background after it. One could be him. 0:16:15.920 --> 0:16:18.280 So yeah, congratulations to James. But we do have another 0:16:18.280 --> 0:16:20.400 trip to give. Ay we don't Radio Hurdach. He does 0:16:20.720 --> 0:16:22.680 for you and a mate to join me and I myself, 0:16:23.200 --> 0:16:25.640 Jeremy Wells and the rest of the team over in Munich. 0:16:26.040 --> 0:16:28.040 So if you do want to win that, just tune 0:16:28.040 --> 0:16:31.760 into Radio Hurdachi weekdays, listen for the activator there and 0:16:31.800 --> 0:16:33.720 you and a mate can be could be joining us 0:16:33.720 --> 0:16:35.480 in that. So hope is not lost. 0:16:35.800 --> 0:16:41.360 I've seen a early doors itinerary come through. Oh yeah, 0:16:41.400 --> 0:16:43.920 it is equal parts exciting and terrifying. 0:16:44.160 --> 0:16:47.600 Just to throw it out there, potentially maybe going through Amsterdam. 0:16:47.600 --> 0:16:50.920 That's what I'm That's what I'm hearing. That's what I'm saying, 0:16:51.080 --> 0:16:52.680 and I'd be quite excited to. 0:16:52.840 --> 0:16:54.360 But how's your life insurance? 0:16:55.160 --> 0:16:56.440 I don't have life insurance. 0:16:56.480 --> 0:16:58.760 No has life insurance covered overseas? 0:16:58.880 --> 0:17:01.640 I don't think so I don't know. 0:17:01.680 --> 0:17:02.440 I want to check that. 0:17:03.200 --> 0:17:04.720 I think I don't know. 0:17:04.760 --> 0:17:08.119 But travel insurance, we get travel insurance through all we do. Yeah, yeah, perfect, 0:17:08.160 --> 0:17:09.640 But I'm not sure it's life and I've got life 0:17:09.640 --> 0:17:11.160 insurance separately, so I don't know if that. 0:17:11.520 --> 0:17:13.520 Covers your life es. Yeah, I'm not sure. I'm not sure. 0:17:13.560 --> 0:17:16.320 I'm even welcome back in Amsterdam my twenty third birthday there, 0:17:16.359 --> 0:17:18.439 and I tossed out almost every bar I was in. 0:17:18.480 --> 0:17:21.399 But anyway, that's a story for another time. Let's take 0:17:21.400 --> 0:17:23.240 a quick break when we come back. There's plenty more 0:17:23.240 --> 0:17:26.560 sport that we haven't yet got to. Tony fenwe lining 0:17:26.640 --> 0:17:28.399 up at the seventeenth hole. We'll keep you posted on 0:17:28.440 --> 0:17:33.960 the US Open as well. Oh Berg, Bryce, and he's 0:17:33.960 --> 0:17:37.040 gonna waggle it a little bit. Crush it did straight arms, 0:17:37.560 --> 0:17:41.080 slight being in the knee, crush it. Crush It is 0:17:41.160 --> 0:17:43.959 really taking his time. It's hovering. The club wins, swings 0:17:44.000 --> 0:17:48.040 as hard as humanly possible, and it's gone a little 0:17:48.080 --> 0:17:48.720 bit too far. 0:17:50.160 --> 0:17:51.600 Let's hit someone's had a boomer. 0:17:51.720 --> 0:17:55.280 I can't understand how often people get at these golf events. 0:17:55.960 --> 0:17:58.160
