1 00:00:06,667 --> 00:00:10,427 Speaker 1: You're listening to the Weekend Sport podcast with Jason Vine 2 00:00:10,707 --> 00:00:11,907 Speaker 1: from News Talks EDB. 3 00:00:14,387 --> 00:00:15,267 Speaker 2: Let's scoop from. 4 00:00:15,107 --> 00:00:18,187 Speaker 1: The track, fields and the court on your home of sport. 5 00:00:18,467 --> 00:00:21,067 Speaker 1: Weekend Sport with Jason Vine us. 6 00:00:20,987 --> 00:00:26,147 Speaker 3: Talks MB eleven O seven. Welcome into an elongated weekend 7 00:00:26,187 --> 00:00:28,347 Speaker 3: sports show on News Talks EDB. I get the feeling 8 00:00:28,347 --> 00:00:29,947 Speaker 3: we're going to need it with a bit of audience 9 00:00:30,027 --> 00:00:32,467 Speaker 3: reaction to watch this played out in WONA series history 10 00:00:32,507 --> 00:00:35,307 Speaker 3: made Argentina have beaten the All Blacks for the first 11 00:00:35,307 --> 00:00:38,627 Speaker 3: time on home soil, twenty nine points to twenty three. 12 00:00:39,067 --> 00:00:41,947 Speaker 3: That means after two rounds of the Rugby Championship, all 13 00:00:42,027 --> 00:00:44,507 Speaker 3: four teams have a win and a loss. The All 14 00:00:44,507 --> 00:00:47,227 Speaker 3: Blacks take a bonus point for getting within seven. That 15 00:00:47,307 --> 00:00:48,827 Speaker 3: has them at the top of the table for now, 16 00:00:48,867 --> 00:00:52,427 Speaker 3: but big challenges in coming from South Africa and from Australia. 17 00:00:52,507 --> 00:00:56,347 Speaker 3: This could well be the closest rugby Championship in many 18 00:00:56,547 --> 00:00:59,547 Speaker 3: many years. Elliott Smith and anstraw And had the call 19 00:00:59,627 --> 00:01:01,107 Speaker 3: for you. They join us for a bit of a 20 00:01:01,427 --> 00:01:04,147 Speaker 3: mop up at the end, a few things to furrow 21 00:01:04,187 --> 00:01:06,827 Speaker 3: the brow of the All Blacks coaching staff, and you 22 00:01:06,867 --> 00:01:10,547 Speaker 3: talked a lot about the aerial battle. Is that a 23 00:01:10,707 --> 00:01:12,947 Speaker 3: challenging fix? Is it fixable? 24 00:01:13,787 --> 00:01:16,827 Speaker 4: Well, I think it's always fixable, Piny, But it was 25 00:01:16,867 --> 00:01:19,467 Speaker 4: significant tonight. It wasn't just one or two occasions. It 26 00:01:19,587 --> 00:01:24,547 Speaker 4: was probably more than ten. And my concerns teams are 27 00:01:24,587 --> 00:01:26,147 Speaker 4: going to the air a lot more. Of course, South 28 00:01:26,147 --> 00:01:28,547 Speaker 4: Africa probably one of the best exponents in the world 29 00:01:28,627 --> 00:01:31,027 Speaker 4: to put the ball in the air and contest, and 30 00:01:31,107 --> 00:01:33,347 Speaker 4: we just have to get our system set up better 31 00:01:33,507 --> 00:01:35,547 Speaker 4: and then our skill set of actually reading the ball 32 00:01:35,587 --> 00:01:38,947 Speaker 4: the flight, get up, get the ball, because you know, 33 00:01:38,987 --> 00:01:40,787 Speaker 4: teams are just going to keep hammering us in that 34 00:01:40,827 --> 00:01:42,667 Speaker 4: phase of the game, and of course if we can't 35 00:01:42,667 --> 00:01:44,547 Speaker 4: do that, it's just going to put us under pressure. 36 00:01:44,547 --> 00:01:47,507 Speaker 4: And it's basically an attacking option for teams now, rather 37 00:01:47,587 --> 00:01:50,627 Speaker 4: than a kick, go suffocate them and try and get 38 00:01:50,627 --> 00:01:53,827 Speaker 4: the ball back. So that's an area obviously they've probably 39 00:01:53,867 --> 00:01:55,747 Speaker 4: been working on it for a while, to be honest, mate, 40 00:01:55,747 --> 00:01:58,027 Speaker 4: But it's a concern right now. 41 00:01:58,147 --> 00:02:00,387 Speaker 3: All right, Elliott, It's one of a number of concerns. 42 00:02:00,387 --> 00:02:02,827 Speaker 3: What else do you think will be top of mind 43 00:02:02,867 --> 00:02:05,587 Speaker 3: as the All Blacks hop on the plane head home 44 00:02:05,587 --> 00:02:07,547 Speaker 3: for these two mets of Tests against South Africa. 45 00:02:07,587 --> 00:02:10,067 Speaker 5: Well, I think it has to be disciplined, if not 46 00:02:10,107 --> 00:02:13,467 Speaker 5: the aerial contest, discipline and accuracy, and we saw tonight 47 00:02:13,707 --> 00:02:16,067 Speaker 5: the All Blacks reduced to thirteen men late in the 48 00:02:16,107 --> 00:02:19,067 Speaker 5: first spell and then for fourteen men at the end 49 00:02:19,107 --> 00:02:21,707 Speaker 5: of the game three yellow cards. Their discipline simply isn't 50 00:02:21,747 --> 00:02:24,067 Speaker 5: good enough. And this has been an ongoing issue for 51 00:02:24,347 --> 00:02:26,547 Speaker 5: New Zealand Rugby and the All Blacks, not for just 52 00:02:26,627 --> 00:02:29,347 Speaker 5: five years or so, but probably even a little bit longer. 53 00:02:29,347 --> 00:02:31,747 Speaker 5: And there doesn't seem to be a way to fix 54 00:02:31,787 --> 00:02:34,107 Speaker 5: it for the All Blacks. So that's a concern for me, 55 00:02:34,347 --> 00:02:36,227 Speaker 5: is that they give up too many yellow cards and 56 00:02:36,267 --> 00:02:40,147 Speaker 5: games too many, too many penalties, and that puts them 57 00:02:40,147 --> 00:02:42,947 Speaker 5: on the back foot and attacking wise as well, they 58 00:02:42,987 --> 00:02:46,747 Speaker 5: were just lacking the accuracy. Ball carrying was poor. They 59 00:02:46,787 --> 00:02:49,387 Speaker 5: didn't get a lot of meterage. Look at the post 60 00:02:49,387 --> 00:02:51,867 Speaker 5: contact meters. I'm just looking at the stats and the 61 00:02:51,907 --> 00:02:54,267 Speaker 5: ad break there and post content meter is something big 62 00:02:54,307 --> 00:02:55,867 Speaker 5: in the game now, it's how many metage you get 63 00:02:55,987 --> 00:02:59,307 Speaker 5: once the initial hit comes. Argentina three hundred and eighty 64 00:02:59,347 --> 00:03:01,627 Speaker 5: six meters the All Blacks one hundred and twenty one. 65 00:03:01,627 --> 00:03:03,547 Speaker 5: Now Argentina had a lot more carries than the All Blacks, 66 00:03:03,787 --> 00:03:07,147 Speaker 5: but Argentina were just able to dominate the visionaries and 67 00:03:07,147 --> 00:03:08,987 Speaker 5: put the All Blacks on the back foot, and the 68 00:03:09,027 --> 00:03:11,307 Speaker 5: All Blacks at times in that game honestly seemed not 69 00:03:11,347 --> 00:03:12,147 Speaker 5: to have any answers. 70 00:03:12,987 --> 00:03:15,947 Speaker 3: And it was also illustration, as you say, of where 71 00:03:15,987 --> 00:03:18,347 Speaker 3: the possession was in the game. If you've got three 72 00:03:18,467 --> 00:03:20,707 Speaker 3: hundred and eighty six post contact meters compared to one 73 00:03:20,787 --> 00:03:22,627 Speaker 3: twenty one ants, it means you've got the ball a 74 00:03:22,667 --> 00:03:24,987 Speaker 3: heck of a lot more. They won the territory and 75 00:03:25,027 --> 00:03:26,867 Speaker 3: the possession battle tonight, Argentina. 76 00:03:27,227 --> 00:03:28,867 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, they did. I mean they had. They were 77 00:03:28,907 --> 00:03:30,907 Speaker 4: patient on attack. They made a few errors, I guess, 78 00:03:30,947 --> 00:03:33,707 Speaker 4: and they basic catch pass early on, but they generally 79 00:03:33,707 --> 00:03:36,147 Speaker 4: held onto the ball for long periods of time. Ill 80 00:03:36,187 --> 00:03:38,667 Speaker 4: discipline got them on attack and it kept them in 81 00:03:38,707 --> 00:03:42,187 Speaker 4: that All Black half. The territory battle, the aerial battle 82 00:03:42,427 --> 00:03:44,707 Speaker 4: kept them there as well. So the wealth of possession 83 00:03:44,827 --> 00:03:47,107 Speaker 4: is always going to take its toll. And of course 84 00:03:47,107 --> 00:03:50,707 Speaker 4: when you put pressure on with possession, the ill discipline comes, 85 00:03:50,707 --> 00:03:53,827 Speaker 4: you lose players off the field and you know ultimately 86 00:03:53,907 --> 00:03:56,667 Speaker 4: points will come. The three points at all the tries 87 00:03:57,587 --> 00:04:00,507 Speaker 4: And also just came back to Elliott's point, just if 88 00:04:00,507 --> 00:04:02,387 Speaker 4: we look at the way we attack and we didn't 89 00:04:02,427 --> 00:04:05,907 Speaker 4: have a lot of ball, we hardly ran six or 90 00:04:05,947 --> 00:04:08,867 Speaker 4: seven or more. I mean, how often can we say, 91 00:04:09,027 --> 00:04:11,787 Speaker 4: when we summarize an all Black Test match that we 92 00:04:11,907 --> 00:04:13,987 Speaker 4: haven't had the ball for seven or more phases on 93 00:04:14,027 --> 00:04:17,227 Speaker 4: a number of occasions. So that was just indicative of 94 00:04:17,267 --> 00:04:20,467 Speaker 4: our own ability I guess to set up our attack 95 00:04:20,547 --> 00:04:22,667 Speaker 4: and hold on to the right people for periods of time. 96 00:04:23,187 --> 00:04:24,747 Speaker 3: And can I stay with you on the on the 97 00:04:24,787 --> 00:04:27,787 Speaker 3: yellow cards? Do you think the players know what is 98 00:04:27,787 --> 00:04:29,467 Speaker 3: a deliberate knock on and what isn't? 99 00:04:31,027 --> 00:04:31,227 Speaker 2: Yeah? 100 00:04:31,227 --> 00:04:33,387 Speaker 4: I do, but I mean you know this is this 101 00:04:33,507 --> 00:04:35,307 Speaker 4: is no excuse, of course. I mean a penalty is 102 00:04:35,307 --> 00:04:38,067 Speaker 4: a penalty of cards a card, and the interpretations are 103 00:04:38,147 --> 00:04:42,147 Speaker 4: a little bit different, to be honest. It's just that 104 00:04:42,507 --> 00:04:46,187 Speaker 4: split second decision you make. Am I caught in the 105 00:04:46,187 --> 00:04:48,667 Speaker 4: wrong space? Do I have a shot for the ball? 106 00:04:48,667 --> 00:04:50,507 Speaker 4: Because I think I can get it? But if I do, 107 00:04:50,587 --> 00:04:53,027 Speaker 4: that's high risk, high reward. And if I don't get 108 00:04:53,027 --> 00:04:55,387 Speaker 4: it right, I've got a yellow card. Well, you know 109 00:04:55,467 --> 00:04:57,587 Speaker 4: all of those things going through your mind in a 110 00:04:57,587 --> 00:05:00,507 Speaker 4: split second it's pretty hard to get that decision dead 111 00:05:00,587 --> 00:05:03,107 Speaker 4: right every time. Maybe they need to go to a 112 00:05:03,147 --> 00:05:05,827 Speaker 4: more conservative approach and just say, hey, look, I'm under pressure. 113 00:05:05,827 --> 00:05:07,907 Speaker 4: I'm just going to and wait for my other defenders 114 00:05:07,947 --> 00:05:09,347 Speaker 4: to come and help me. Then we'll go get him. 115 00:05:10,667 --> 00:05:13,027 Speaker 4: I think they do, but I think they get given 116 00:05:13,027 --> 00:05:15,027 Speaker 4: a bit of a license to push the envelope. We 117 00:05:15,027 --> 00:05:18,307 Speaker 4: say it's old cliche, of course, and maybe as Alliance 118 00:05:18,347 --> 00:05:20,987 Speaker 4: here we've just been doing it too often and it's 119 00:05:21,027 --> 00:05:23,267 Speaker 4: costing us and Elliott. 120 00:05:23,307 --> 00:05:25,707 Speaker 3: For you, when you have a defeat, you often look 121 00:05:25,747 --> 00:05:29,747 Speaker 3: at what changes you could make potentially personnel wise. It's 122 00:05:29,747 --> 00:05:31,827 Speaker 3: not as though the All Blacks are missing a whole 123 00:05:31,827 --> 00:05:36,747 Speaker 3: bunch of players. Do you see changes tweaks? You know, 124 00:05:37,067 --> 00:05:39,867 Speaker 3: a major refresh for the test in a couple of 125 00:05:39,867 --> 00:05:40,627 Speaker 3: weeks at Eaton Park. 126 00:05:40,667 --> 00:05:41,827 Speaker 5: I mean it's hard to see it, isn't it. 127 00:05:41,867 --> 00:05:42,227 Speaker 3: Piney. 128 00:05:42,467 --> 00:05:44,907 Speaker 5: I guess Will Jordan didn't have one of his better nights, 129 00:05:44,947 --> 00:05:47,107 Speaker 5: but they're not going to ax him for that test 130 00:05:47,147 --> 00:05:51,747 Speaker 5: against the box. We saw Billy Procter probably at times 131 00:05:51,787 --> 00:05:53,787 Speaker 5: have one of his better test matches that he's had. 132 00:05:53,787 --> 00:05:57,547 Speaker 5: But Rico Uani was quiet. Calib Clark may be fit, 133 00:05:57,627 --> 00:06:00,227 Speaker 5: but he's touch and go. Not a lot of changes 134 00:06:00,267 --> 00:06:04,347 Speaker 5: screaming out. You'd probably bring Satiti back into the starting pack, 135 00:06:05,147 --> 00:06:08,787 Speaker 5: but again it's it's accuracy. It's things like that. The 136 00:06:08,907 --> 00:06:10,747 Speaker 5: question will be around half back, of course, is Ratam 137 00:06:10,747 --> 00:06:12,947 Speaker 5: attacking the injury to probably the chest or the ribs. 138 00:06:13,347 --> 00:06:15,707 Speaker 5: They're already three half backs down, two half backs down. 139 00:06:15,747 --> 00:06:18,667 Speaker 5: There could be a third down. Whether Christie is the 140 00:06:18,667 --> 00:06:20,947 Speaker 5: man for Eden Parker. That's going to be fascinating. But 141 00:06:21,507 --> 00:06:24,347 Speaker 5: no changes scream out because it's not like the options 142 00:06:24,347 --> 00:06:27,107 Speaker 5: waiting and the Wings are putting their hand up necessarily either. 143 00:06:27,187 --> 00:06:30,467 Speaker 5: So some thinking for Scott, Robinson and coder Zoo on 144 00:06:30,507 --> 00:06:32,347 Speaker 5: that long plane ride back from Argentina. 145 00:06:32,907 --> 00:06:36,547 Speaker 3: Indeed, thanks you guys, appreciate your post match wrap up 146 00:06:36,547 --> 00:06:39,347 Speaker 3: and your commentary this morning. Elliott Smith our rugby editor 147 00:06:39,347 --> 00:06:42,387 Speaker 3: and lead commentator alongside form All Blacks halfback and expert 148 00:06:42,387 --> 00:06:45,387 Speaker 3: analyst and Straw and they'll be back on your radio 149 00:06:45,787 --> 00:06:48,427 Speaker 3: on the night of September sixth when the All Blacks 150 00:06:48,467 --> 00:06:51,307 Speaker 3: welcome the challenge of the spring box to Eden park 151 00:06:51,387 --> 00:06:53,747 Speaker 3: We'll have it for you of course here on news Talks. 152 00:06:53,747 --> 00:06:56,747 Speaker 3: He'd b thirteen past eleven All right while we're here 153 00:06:57,227 --> 00:06:59,867 Speaker 3: right through until three, So let's get underway. Your chance 154 00:06:59,947 --> 00:07:03,227 Speaker 3: to react immediately before you hear anything in terms of 155 00:07:03,227 --> 00:07:06,067 Speaker 3: postmatch from the players, from the coaches. We'll have a 156 00:07:06,067 --> 00:07:09,027 Speaker 3: sister coach at Jason Holland joining us sometime in the 157 00:07:09,027 --> 00:07:11,667 Speaker 3: next hour or so. But your chance to react immediately. 158 00:07:11,787 --> 00:07:14,787 Speaker 3: Oh eight hundred and eighty ten eighty to what you 159 00:07:14,827 --> 00:07:19,507 Speaker 3: saw out there, messy, scrappy, inaccurate. I've written down here 160 00:07:19,547 --> 00:07:24,707 Speaker 3: ill disciplined three yellow cards. That's five yellow cards in 161 00:07:24,787 --> 00:07:27,027 Speaker 3: two games now. And look, you can say what you 162 00:07:27,187 --> 00:07:29,227 Speaker 3: like about the deliberate knock on rule, and I still 163 00:07:29,267 --> 00:07:34,987 Speaker 3: think it's confusing, but there is work to do. South 164 00:07:35,027 --> 00:07:37,427 Speaker 3: Africa will not be looking at that game this morning 165 00:07:38,067 --> 00:07:40,107 Speaker 3: and quaking in their boots about coming to try and 166 00:07:40,147 --> 00:07:44,707 Speaker 3: break the Eden Park curse. Too many penalties given away 167 00:07:44,707 --> 00:07:48,587 Speaker 3: in dangerous positions. The All Blacks outscored Argentina three tries 168 00:07:48,667 --> 00:07:48,947 Speaker 3: to two. 169 00:07:49,707 --> 00:07:50,627 Speaker 6: It was the five. 170 00:07:50,547 --> 00:07:55,787 Speaker 3: Penalties that were the difference out there.

Gunnerhomes New Zealand's most trusted home 180 00:08:20,227 --> 00:08:21,507 Speaker 1: builder News Dogs. 181 00:08:21,467 --> 00:08:24,347 Speaker 5: V Taken off the back by my tide. He winds up, 182 00:08:24,427 --> 00:08:27,227 Speaker 5: Pablo Materra, Mike go himself had I made a short 183 00:08:27,347 --> 00:08:28,147 Speaker 5: Gonzado gu. 184 00:08:28,227 --> 00:08:29,267 Speaker 7: Saya scores the. 185 00:08:29,427 --> 00:08:33,867 Speaker 5: Half back shots down Argentina twenty four point thirteen and 186 00:08:33,947 --> 00:08:34,707 Speaker 5: a kick to gum. 187 00:08:34,987 --> 00:08:37,467 Speaker 3: Yeah, Argentina doing a job on the All Blacks twenty nine, 188 00:08:37,587 --> 00:08:40,227 Speaker 3: twenty three and one A series lines open to react. 189 00:08:40,307 --> 00:08:43,667 Speaker 3: I eight hundred eighty ten eighty kick us off, Jason. 190 00:08:44,907 --> 00:08:47,987 Speaker 8: Three Things final and my heart dunk. When I think 191 00:08:48,067 --> 00:08:50,987 Speaker 8: body missed that a penalty under the six. There was 192 00:08:51,067 --> 00:08:53,587 Speaker 8: three points in at the end of the game. Boden 193 00:08:53,707 --> 00:08:58,507 Speaker 8: missus twelve points points when test matches, I think it's as. 194 00:08:58,427 --> 00:08:59,507 Speaker 9: Clear as that I I. 195 00:09:01,227 --> 00:09:02,867 Speaker 8: I think it ended up twenty nine to twenty six 196 00:09:03,027 --> 00:09:04,987 Speaker 8: or something like that. When McKenzie slotted that, you know, 197 00:09:05,267 --> 00:09:07,507 Speaker 8: point just to get a bone this point. But there's 198 00:09:07,547 --> 00:09:10,587 Speaker 8: your first problem. Secondly, I think I counted thirty six 199 00:09:11,827 --> 00:09:16,267 Speaker 8: balls in the air, all blacks one zero of the 200 00:09:16,347 --> 00:09:18,467 Speaker 8: only ones that we got in the air that contested. 201 00:09:18,507 --> 00:09:20,187 Speaker 8: We're not to afford anyway, and I went back to 202 00:09:20,307 --> 00:09:23,907 Speaker 8: Argentina's side. There's our second problem and third problem. And 203 00:09:23,987 --> 00:09:26,907 Speaker 8: South Africa will just absolutely punish us to the cows 204 00:09:26,987 --> 00:09:28,307 Speaker 8: come home in a couple of weeks. 205 00:09:28,347 --> 00:09:31,547 Speaker 10: On that, on that tactic. Third one. 206 00:09:31,587 --> 00:09:34,307 Speaker 8: As I rang last week with the same albeit on 207 00:09:34,387 --> 00:09:36,907 Speaker 8: the back of a winning forms for all Blacks. As 208 00:09:36,987 --> 00:09:40,747 Speaker 8: Rico Jojuani has just been carried. He's a luxury. 209 00:09:40,867 --> 00:09:41,427 Speaker 9: Can't afford. 210 00:09:41,587 --> 00:09:43,867 Speaker 8: Just get rid of him. He had his worst game 211 00:09:43,987 --> 00:09:46,107 Speaker 8: last week I've seen in a while, and today was 212 00:09:46,187 --> 00:09:47,667 Speaker 8: even nonexistent. 213 00:09:48,987 --> 00:09:49,627 Speaker 11: There's my point. 214 00:09:50,067 --> 00:09:52,627 Speaker 3: Yeah, no good points, Jase. Can I just address the 215 00:09:53,347 --> 00:09:56,507 Speaker 3: goal kicking one? Yeah, yeah, that boat and Barrett one 216 00:09:56,787 --> 00:10:00,147 Speaker 3: that he missed from a very handy position. Yeah, that's 217 00:10:00,267 --> 00:10:03,067 Speaker 3: just not like I mean, the two conversions he missed 218 00:10:03,067 --> 00:10:04,947 Speaker 3: will from wide outl I mean, I think we have to, 219 00:10:05,827 --> 00:10:07,347 Speaker 3: you know, have to sort of, I guess give him 220 00:10:07,347 --> 00:10:09,947 Speaker 3: a degree of latitude there or that. Having said that, 221 00:10:10,067 --> 00:10:13,627 Speaker 3: Damien McKenzie came on and converted the tokiajo try from 222 00:10:13,867 --> 00:10:16,427 Speaker 3: you know, from his I guess the less ideal side 223 00:10:16,467 --> 00:10:19,347 Speaker 3: for around the corner kicker. You're right, I mean you 224 00:10:19,467 --> 00:10:22,787 Speaker 3: can't leave points out there in test matches. I don't know. 225 00:10:22,867 --> 00:10:24,907 Speaker 3: I think I think the middle one is the one 226 00:10:26,067 --> 00:10:30,547 Speaker 3: that the point that you made the aerial battle man 227 00:10:31,387 --> 00:10:34,307 Speaker 3: and like man Ant Strawn is a guy I listened 228 00:10:34,347 --> 00:10:37,427 Speaker 3: to as probably one of the most astute rugby analysts 229 00:10:37,787 --> 00:10:41,467 Speaker 3: we have, and I listened to Elliott and Ant's commentary 230 00:10:41,907 --> 00:10:46,627 Speaker 3: while watching the game and he's dead right. Teams will 231 00:10:47,347 --> 00:10:50,067 Speaker 3: see that as a vulnerability, as a weakness. They will 232 00:10:50,147 --> 00:10:53,067 Speaker 3: bombard us in the air. It's something that they have 233 00:10:53,187 --> 00:10:54,147 Speaker 3: to fix real quick. 234 00:10:56,347 --> 00:10:59,467 Speaker 8: You make that point about you know the difficulty of 235 00:10:59,547 --> 00:11:01,907 Speaker 8: the kicks, Well, look at the argentining guy. He didn't 236 00:11:01,907 --> 00:11:04,147 Speaker 8: miss nothing and he was kicking them arguably for more 237 00:11:04,187 --> 00:11:07,147 Speaker 8: difficult spaces in Boden Barrett, and what do you think 238 00:11:08,427 --> 00:11:09,987 Speaker 8: the goalkicker for South that Brook is going to do. 239 00:11:10,067 --> 00:11:13,107 Speaker 8: They're kicking at ninety two percent, So I don't see 240 00:11:13,147 --> 00:11:14,907 Speaker 8: that as being a defense on Bowden Bart. You just 241 00:11:14,947 --> 00:11:16,987 Speaker 8: got to stump up and kick the kicks. 242 00:11:16,827 --> 00:11:20,387 Speaker 3: Over indeed, and he has been doing it, Jace. I look, 243 00:11:21,067 --> 00:11:23,347 Speaker 3: you're right. He'll look at you know, he'll look back 244 00:11:23,387 --> 00:11:25,227 Speaker 3: and say, yeah, he left points out there. He won't 245 00:11:25,227 --> 00:11:27,507 Speaker 3: be happy, of course he won't be He's a perfectionist, 246 00:11:27,587 --> 00:11:30,187 Speaker 3: Boden Barrett. He won't be happy with the mist kicks 247 00:11:30,227 --> 00:11:33,507 Speaker 3: at goal. And you're right, that's more of a I guess, 248 00:11:33,547 --> 00:11:36,947 Speaker 3: a quantifiable reason for the loss, the fact that he 249 00:11:37,067 --> 00:11:39,907 Speaker 3: missed all of those points and we only lost by six. 250 00:11:40,667 --> 00:11:45,347 Speaker 3: I think the deeper issue here is around discipline and 251 00:11:45,467 --> 00:11:50,547 Speaker 3: giving away penalties and kickable positions five penalties Argentina kicked five. 252 00:11:51,747 --> 00:11:56,267 Speaker 3: But also that aerial battle. It's becoming a battle ground 253 00:11:56,427 --> 00:12:01,467 Speaker 3: or a battle air probably more more correctly, and it's 254 00:12:01,507 --> 00:12:03,347 Speaker 3: one that we're not winning at the moment. Those stats 255 00:12:03,387 --> 00:12:05,387 Speaker 3: are worrying, Jason. If you counted thirty old and when 256 00:12:05,387 --> 00:12:09,867 Speaker 3: don't win any of them, goodness me, Brent high he made. 257 00:12:09,987 --> 00:12:12,827 Speaker 12: I'm a bit disappointed team because I lost a bit 258 00:12:12,867 --> 00:12:15,107 Speaker 12: of money. But I got a bit of work used 259 00:12:15,107 --> 00:12:16,787 Speaker 12: today because I'm a work at a man, So you 260 00:12:16,827 --> 00:12:20,507 Speaker 12: know that I'm just worrying about lit blecks. We haven't 261 00:12:20,507 --> 00:12:23,867 Speaker 12: got no star like a Carter a merchants Salon MoU 262 00:12:24,667 --> 00:12:27,427 Speaker 12: And I think that's where we're having issues, Like we 263 00:12:28,067 --> 00:12:29,987 Speaker 12: have a star and our team. He's going forward and 264 00:12:30,067 --> 00:12:33,387 Speaker 12: he's making ground and he's and everyone's behind him and 265 00:12:33,507 --> 00:12:36,147 Speaker 12: they follow, you know, back in the days and now 266 00:12:36,227 --> 00:12:41,987 Speaker 12: it's just like foh, someone like like Damien McKenzie came 267 00:12:42,027 --> 00:12:44,707 Speaker 12: on and kicked the kicks and I said, oh, yep, no, 268 00:12:44,827 --> 00:12:46,307 Speaker 12: we're right now. Help he's come on. 269 00:12:46,387 --> 00:12:49,267 Speaker 8: There's a bit of spark there and no, just no. 270 00:12:51,107 --> 00:12:53,187 Speaker 3: I reckon Brent, I reckon those players. I reckon we 271 00:12:53,227 --> 00:12:56,747 Speaker 3: do have those players, Ardie Savier, Will Jordan. I think 272 00:12:56,827 --> 00:12:59,787 Speaker 3: Will Jordan had probably one of his less memorable tests tonight, 273 00:13:00,187 --> 00:13:03,427 Speaker 3: and again he will totally reflect on that with with 274 00:13:03,547 --> 00:13:06,307 Speaker 3: a degree of disappointment at the way that he played. 275 00:13:07,267 --> 00:13:10,707 Speaker 3: But yeah, you do. We do have those guys. We 276 00:13:10,867 --> 00:13:14,467 Speaker 3: definitely have those guys, but they just they weren't there. 277 00:13:15,587 --> 00:13:17,707 Speaker 12: I don't, I don't. I just don't think we have 278 00:13:17,867 --> 00:13:22,587 Speaker 12: those guys. Jason. It's like, I know, like I'm a 279 00:13:22,627 --> 00:13:24,747 Speaker 12: rugby man through and through, and like man, I was 280 00:13:24,827 --> 00:13:27,027 Speaker 12: in love my rugby and all that, and in watching 281 00:13:27,067 --> 00:13:28,747 Speaker 12: my life I've never been thro All Black tests and 282 00:13:28,827 --> 00:13:31,507 Speaker 12: eat and part we have lost. Now I'm living in 283 00:13:31,587 --> 00:13:34,667 Speaker 12: Wellington and I'm enjoying it down here too, and I 284 00:13:34,907 --> 00:13:38,947 Speaker 12: just struggle why we've got no stars. Like even though 285 00:13:39,067 --> 00:13:41,227 Speaker 12: I go to Club Rugby down in Wellington, I haven't 286 00:13:41,227 --> 00:13:43,947 Speaker 12: really seen a star up in Wayn and I stayed 287 00:13:43,987 --> 00:13:47,547 Speaker 12: in Taranaki for I didn't see any stars there. I'm 288 00:13:47,707 --> 00:13:50,067 Speaker 12: just worried about a rugby Jason, like because of the 289 00:13:51,347 --> 00:13:53,627 Speaker 12: the no superstars we used to have, like in the 290 00:13:54,427 --> 00:13:57,987 Speaker 12: in the days. I understand your Will Jordan. He's sensational, yes, 291 00:13:58,227 --> 00:14:01,387 Speaker 12: you know, in early Savina he's a top forward, but 292 00:14:02,387 --> 00:14:04,507 Speaker 12: they're not like the long moos and the carters and 293 00:14:04,627 --> 00:14:07,147 Speaker 12: the can you understand what I'm talking about? 294 00:14:07,187 --> 00:14:08,067 Speaker 10: You know, like you haven't. 295 00:14:09,387 --> 00:14:11,467 Speaker 3: Yeah, another way I put it. Another way of putting it, yeah, Brent, 296 00:14:11,547 --> 00:14:13,387 Speaker 3: So another way putting it, mate, it's probably okay, which 297 00:14:13,467 --> 00:14:16,147 Speaker 3: All Black makes a World fifteen right now? That's probably 298 00:14:16,187 --> 00:14:18,507 Speaker 3: another way of putting it. And I think Ardie Savior 299 00:14:18,547 --> 00:14:22,267 Speaker 3: and Will Jordan's certainly have they can mount an argument 300 00:14:22,347 --> 00:14:25,107 Speaker 3: for that not based you can't just obviously based it 301 00:14:25,147 --> 00:14:27,707 Speaker 3: off one game. You know, a body of work I 302 00:14:27,747 --> 00:14:31,427 Speaker 3: think they're generally recognized Will Jordan and Artie Savia as 303 00:14:31,507 --> 00:14:33,987 Speaker 3: world class players. But having said that, you look at 304 00:14:33,987 --> 00:14:36,627 Speaker 3: the games this year, Brent, you know, three wins over 305 00:14:36,707 --> 00:14:39,347 Speaker 3: France where really, you know, there was only probably one 306 00:14:39,467 --> 00:14:42,547 Speaker 3: good half of rugby in the entire three games by 307 00:14:42,587 --> 00:14:44,907 Speaker 3: the All Blacks that I'd be really happy with, and 308 00:14:45,027 --> 00:14:48,067 Speaker 3: that was the first half in Wellington, Argentina. Last week 309 00:14:48,387 --> 00:14:50,507 Speaker 3: they got back to within seven and we sort of 310 00:14:50,547 --> 00:14:52,947 Speaker 3: stretched away at the end and now a loss over 311 00:14:53,027 --> 00:14:56,387 Speaker 3: there for the first time. So you know that there's 312 00:14:56,987 --> 00:15:00,067 Speaker 3: even if you do have those players, they can't do 313 00:15:00,187 --> 00:15:01,107 Speaker 3: it by themselves. 314 00:15:03,707 --> 00:15:06,667 Speaker 12: Okay, is it what you're thinking? Okay, no, I'll be 315 00:15:06,747 --> 00:15:09,307 Speaker 12: with you in or just I'm just thinking that that's 316 00:15:09,467 --> 00:15:11,787 Speaker 12: that's the problem with us. We've got no superstars like 317 00:15:11,987 --> 00:15:13,627 Speaker 12: back in the days. Like I said, long Moon he 318 00:15:13,747 --> 00:15:16,707 Speaker 12: just got which really merchants was we've. 319 00:15:16,227 --> 00:15:17,027 Speaker 13: Got no goal kicker. 320 00:15:17,067 --> 00:15:19,267 Speaker 12: They can kick a ball from a long way away, 321 00:15:19,507 --> 00:15:22,627 Speaker 12: you know, like from like the ten medal line when 322 00:15:22,667 --> 00:15:24,627 Speaker 12: you got you see this guy from France and like 323 00:15:24,747 --> 00:15:27,067 Speaker 12: the guy just said before, the guy from Africa, the 324 00:15:27,147 --> 00:15:29,947 Speaker 12: guy from Argentina, they just kicked the ball from anywhere. 325 00:15:29,947 --> 00:15:32,947 Speaker 12: When they get penalized, and a lot of penalties. When 326 00:15:32,987 --> 00:15:34,667 Speaker 12: the ball goes up on the air, like on the 327 00:15:35,227 --> 00:15:37,347 Speaker 12: ten medal line. The ball goes up, we go for it. 328 00:15:37,507 --> 00:15:40,547 Speaker 12: And obviously we saw Steve Uskiet sent off, which was 329 00:15:40,587 --> 00:15:43,787 Speaker 12: annoying because that was just a bloody joke. And as 330 00:15:43,827 --> 00:15:45,747 Speaker 12: soon as I saw that ref today, actually I had 331 00:15:45,747 --> 00:15:47,147 Speaker 12: a funny felling there was going to be a lot 332 00:15:47,187 --> 00:15:51,787 Speaker 12: of issues and I was right. We lost, and just 333 00:15:52,347 --> 00:15:55,787 Speaker 12: just just annoying. How you see that. You see the 334 00:15:55,907 --> 00:15:58,987 Speaker 12: future of this happening, and it's just annoying because you'll 335 00:15:59,347 --> 00:16:01,427 Speaker 12: follow the team for so long and then they started 336 00:16:01,467 --> 00:16:02,187 Speaker 12: to disappoint you. 337 00:16:05,187 --> 00:16:07,147 Speaker 3: You have a good day too, nice day and Wellington, Brent, 338 00:16:08,307 --> 00:16:10,107 Speaker 3: but the sunshine for you to enjoy, plus the shield 339 00:16:10,147 --> 00:16:11,827 Speaker 3: for your Wye Ko boys appreciate you call them man, 340 00:16:11,867 --> 00:16:14,827 Speaker 3: and it's look, we've all got different views, right, and 341 00:16:14,907 --> 00:16:17,907 Speaker 3: that's what this is about. Eleven twenty five phone lines 342 00:16:17,947 --> 00:16:20,227 Speaker 3: are lighting up. Jump aboard if you can. I eight 343 00:16:20,347 --> 00:16:22,027 Speaker 3: hundred eighty ten eighty back in a moment. That's me 344 00:16:22,227 --> 00:16:24,387 Speaker 3: back on the radio. I eight hundred eighty ten eighty 345 00:16:24,387 --> 00:16:28,227 Speaker 3: eleven twenty seven lines are full, but please keep trying Tim, 346 00:16:28,227 --> 00:16:31,667 Speaker 3: thanks for holding. Good afternoon, no, good morning, good morning. 347 00:16:31,747 --> 00:16:35,747 Speaker 14: Finally, first and foremost congradulations to Argentina, the first time 348 00:16:35,787 --> 00:16:38,467 Speaker 14: that's been in the All Blacks and in Argentina, so 349 00:16:38,587 --> 00:16:39,507 Speaker 14: that's a massive effort. 350 00:16:40,307 --> 00:16:41,307 Speaker 11: We were off from the start. 351 00:16:41,707 --> 00:16:42,667 Speaker 15: We were off from the start. 352 00:16:42,747 --> 00:16:45,827 Speaker 14: I think a lot of our players got found out today, 353 00:16:46,427 --> 00:16:49,907 Speaker 14: especially sevu Reese. It kept coming in for some reason. 354 00:16:50,507 --> 00:16:53,187 Speaker 14: He kept coming in off as wing and that allowed 355 00:16:53,267 --> 00:16:57,107 Speaker 14: space for their wingers. And I think, you know, Cardis 356 00:16:57,147 --> 00:16:58,867 Speaker 14: should come into the mix, but it's going to be 357 00:16:58,947 --> 00:17:01,667 Speaker 14: hard because we've got the spring Box next there, Pat 358 00:17:02,187 --> 00:17:04,787 Speaker 14: and the spring Box. You know they want their number 359 00:17:04,827 --> 00:17:07,587 Speaker 14: one rankings. I think we we don't lose the number 360 00:17:07,627 --> 00:17:10,187 Speaker 14: one rankings for now, but we'll have to wait and 361 00:17:10,267 --> 00:17:12,907 Speaker 14: see it. But what a great competition, mate, It's open. 362 00:17:13,147 --> 00:17:14,027 Speaker 14: Anyone can win it. 363 00:17:14,787 --> 00:17:18,227 Speaker 3: That's so true. Yeah, it's so true. And I think 364 00:17:18,307 --> 00:17:19,787 Speaker 3: you know with the spring Box coming now. As I 365 00:17:19,827 --> 00:17:21,347 Speaker 3: said to Elliot Smith before, I'm not sure if you 366 00:17:21,347 --> 00:17:23,787 Speaker 3: heard our postmatch rap, but it's not as though there 367 00:17:23,827 --> 00:17:27,227 Speaker 3: are wholesale changes which can be made. Look, I think 368 00:17:27,227 --> 00:17:29,947 Speaker 3: we keep our fingers crossed for cam Royguard and or 369 00:17:30,187 --> 00:17:32,427 Speaker 3: no A Hotham or the Hotham seems like a long shot. 370 00:17:32,787 --> 00:17:35,147 Speaker 3: I think we absolutely keep our fingers crossed at cam 371 00:17:35,227 --> 00:17:37,307 Speaker 3: Rouyguard is going to be okay in a couple of weeks. 372 00:17:37,387 --> 00:17:39,867 Speaker 3: He is the one player who I think, you know 373 00:17:40,467 --> 00:17:44,427 Speaker 3: could make a difference. Cortez Latimer got that rib injury today. 374 00:17:44,467 --> 00:17:47,747 Speaker 3: We don't know how bad that is. So all of 375 00:17:47,787 --> 00:17:51,627 Speaker 3: a sudden, if Roygard isn't isn't fit and the hoth 376 00:17:51,667 --> 00:17:54,707 Speaker 3: them isn't fit and Ratama has has a rib problem, 377 00:17:55,067 --> 00:17:59,187 Speaker 3: then we're Finlay Christie and Kyle Preston, who would be 378 00:17:59,267 --> 00:18:02,187 Speaker 3: on debut and the biggest test we've played in some 379 00:18:02,347 --> 00:18:03,907 Speaker 3: time at Eden Park in a couple of weeks. 380 00:18:05,107 --> 00:18:08,347 Speaker 14: Yeah, that's a scary thought. And especially the tips that 381 00:18:08,747 --> 00:18:11,347 Speaker 14: Russy has created in South Africa, it's going to be 382 00:18:11,547 --> 00:18:14,627 Speaker 14: very interesting in them coming to eden Buck. No one's 383 00:18:15,027 --> 00:18:17,467 Speaker 14: won the instance well two to your views now, so 384 00:18:17,587 --> 00:18:19,987 Speaker 14: we have to keep that record and I still feel 385 00:18:20,027 --> 00:18:22,347 Speaker 14: like we're the favorites, but there needs to be changes, 386 00:18:22,467 --> 00:18:23,507 Speaker 14: especially in their back line. 387 00:18:23,947 --> 00:18:24,947 Speaker 16: Just Bunny got on. 388 00:18:24,947 --> 00:18:26,947 Speaker 3: Your tim Always good to hear your thoughts. My thanks 389 00:18:26,947 --> 00:18:29,467 Speaker 3: to day oh eight one hundred and eighty ten eighty Graham. 390 00:18:29,507 --> 00:18:32,067 Speaker 17: Hello, Oh get Jason, how are you mate? 391 00:18:32,347 --> 00:18:33,667 Speaker 3: Too many Crusaders on this team? 392 00:18:33,747 --> 00:18:33,987 Speaker 18: Grime? 393 00:18:35,187 --> 00:18:36,027 Speaker 19: Not enough mate? 394 00:18:36,907 --> 00:18:40,267 Speaker 17: No, I mean look, I mean I don't want to 395 00:18:40,307 --> 00:18:43,587 Speaker 17: sound obvious, but I respect what they last callers said 396 00:18:43,627 --> 00:18:47,067 Speaker 17: about the back line. But I think that loose forward 397 00:18:47,147 --> 00:18:50,867 Speaker 17: trio was talked up big time. And you're gonna look 398 00:18:50,867 --> 00:18:52,867 Speaker 17: at what they said about Simon Parker, who's a big 399 00:18:52,907 --> 00:18:55,987 Speaker 17: body and he's going to move South South African players. Well, 400 00:18:56,827 --> 00:19:00,347 Speaker 17: he was playing at Argentina and a battle were tough, 401 00:19:00,707 --> 00:19:04,027 Speaker 17: tough Lucies and they got they got spanked. I mean, Ardie, 402 00:19:04,067 --> 00:19:07,387 Speaker 17: we know he's like you said, heaven will Jordan's World fifteen? 403 00:19:07,747 --> 00:19:10,347 Speaker 17: You know, question Mark, we'd argue, but those two are 404 00:19:11,227 --> 00:19:14,827 Speaker 17: nothing is already Wallis ted he played well. But people 405 00:19:14,947 --> 00:19:18,787 Speaker 17: poohod easton Blackadder and said, oh look as time's over, 406 00:19:18,947 --> 00:19:24,067 Speaker 17: we've got these new guys, bigger men. Well it's how 407 00:19:24,187 --> 00:19:27,227 Speaker 17: good you are. And I really think, you know a 408 00:19:27,267 --> 00:19:30,587 Speaker 17: lot of people might be flabergas at me saying this, 409 00:19:30,747 --> 00:19:33,547 Speaker 17: but I think that all black selection panel is in 410 00:19:33,667 --> 00:19:37,027 Speaker 17: disarray in terms of their selections. I think, you know, 411 00:19:37,227 --> 00:19:39,347 Speaker 17: Ian Foster coopped it and I gave it to him, 412 00:19:40,107 --> 00:19:42,907 Speaker 17: and I think I don't really think things have got 413 00:19:42,987 --> 00:19:45,467 Speaker 17: any better. And I was one of the ones that 414 00:19:45,867 --> 00:19:48,347 Speaker 17: touted robertson. I think they need to really go back 415 00:19:48,347 --> 00:19:51,187 Speaker 17: to the drawing board. But whether they do, like you said, Jason, 416 00:19:52,187 --> 00:19:55,867 Speaker 17: it's highly unlikely they will. I mean thought Billy Proctor 417 00:19:55,907 --> 00:19:58,307 Speaker 17: played well in the mid at third thing. You know, 418 00:19:58,427 --> 00:20:01,787 Speaker 17: he's had a you know, quite a tough introduction to 419 00:20:02,347 --> 00:20:05,427 Speaker 17: tess Rugby. You know he's actually his chance. But you 420 00:20:05,507 --> 00:20:08,667 Speaker 17: know that was a a good thing. But yeah, I 421 00:20:08,787 --> 00:20:12,147 Speaker 17: just think there's these things to be seriously looked at. 422 00:20:12,227 --> 00:20:14,707 Speaker 17: But I don't know. I say, I sort of seen, 423 00:20:14,787 --> 00:20:16,147 Speaker 17: so that's not going to happen. 424 00:20:16,707 --> 00:20:19,507 Speaker 3: Yeah, And look, I you know Ethan Blackadder. We know 425 00:20:19,747 --> 00:20:21,147 Speaker 3: you know what you're going to get from them. I 426 00:20:21,187 --> 00:20:24,187 Speaker 3: thought Simon Parker actually had a reasonable debut. Great. 427 00:20:25,467 --> 00:20:29,227 Speaker 17: Yeah, I'm not running all for the player, no no, no, no, no, no, I. 428 00:20:29,267 --> 00:20:32,187 Speaker 3: Knew that gram. I just yeah. But but like you say, 429 00:20:32,387 --> 00:20:33,947 Speaker 3: if they're going to bring Ethan Blackader and they have 430 00:20:33,987 --> 00:20:35,747 Speaker 3: to go outside the squad they've chosen, and I just 431 00:20:35,787 --> 00:20:38,307 Speaker 3: don't think they will. You look at that, and you 432 00:20:38,387 --> 00:20:41,027 Speaker 3: look at that twenty three today and you say, well, 433 00:20:41,547 --> 00:20:45,827 Speaker 3: that's probably the bulk of that. Twenty three will play 434 00:20:45,827 --> 00:20:48,107 Speaker 3: against South Africa in a couple of weeks, so I 435 00:20:48,147 --> 00:20:49,827 Speaker 3: guess on the positive side, if you want to flip it, 436 00:20:50,467 --> 00:20:53,547 Speaker 3: those boys will have a big point to prove when 437 00:20:53,587 --> 00:20:56,107 Speaker 3: they run out. But yeah, there's some so so you're 438 00:20:56,147 --> 00:20:58,747 Speaker 3: not a you're not across that you're not a fan 439 00:20:58,867 --> 00:21:02,307 Speaker 3: of the of the vity Savia Parker. I think Wallace 440 00:21:02,347 --> 00:21:04,547 Speaker 3: to Titi will probably come and Amore I. 441 00:21:04,587 --> 00:21:07,947 Speaker 17: Think, well, well keep me right. No, he said an 442 00:21:08,067 --> 00:21:10,547 Speaker 17: outstanding year he did last year at a lot. I'm 443 00:21:10,587 --> 00:21:11,627 Speaker 17: ever going an issue with him. 444 00:21:11,787 --> 00:21:13,667 Speaker 20: I have an issue with. 445 00:21:14,147 --> 00:21:17,707 Speaker 17: The way they basically I think the loose forwards. I'm 446 00:21:17,947 --> 00:21:20,467 Speaker 17: sorry about being one eyed, but I think some of 447 00:21:20,507 --> 00:21:23,187 Speaker 17: our loose forwards here are better than what the All 448 00:21:23,227 --> 00:21:25,427 Speaker 17: Black selectors. I've sort of said, well, yeah they won 449 00:21:25,507 --> 00:21:28,427 Speaker 17: the competition, but our loose forwards if you outplay the 450 00:21:28,547 --> 00:21:32,827 Speaker 17: Chiefs in a final. But that sort of got basically ignored. 451 00:21:32,907 --> 00:21:35,867 Speaker 17: He now got packed and he's been dropped again or 452 00:21:35,987 --> 00:21:39,067 Speaker 17: left out, whichever way you want to put it. It's 453 00:21:39,107 --> 00:21:42,227 Speaker 17: not the Satis and people's values and I've got any 454 00:21:42,307 --> 00:21:45,267 Speaker 17: issue with you know, those guys are deserving of their 455 00:21:45,307 --> 00:21:49,187 Speaker 17: places in the all black squad. But I just think 456 00:21:49,227 --> 00:21:51,667 Speaker 17: there should be a change direction with some of the 457 00:21:51,747 --> 00:21:54,587 Speaker 17: other ones. That's that's what I'm basically saying. 458 00:21:55,027 --> 00:21:57,467 Speaker 3: Good on your Graham. I never ever apologize for being 459 00:21:57,507 --> 00:22:01,387 Speaker 3: one eyed, never ever do that. It's what sporters. Thanks Graham. 460 00:22:01,387 --> 00:22:07,307 Speaker 3: I appreciate your call. Dominate. Hello, good, Yeah, good Dominic. 461 00:22:07,387 --> 00:22:08,707 Speaker 15: Thanks get it. 462 00:22:08,787 --> 00:22:10,307 Speaker 21: Money, mate. 463 00:22:10,307 --> 00:22:13,387 Speaker 22: I've got a few points. The first one is probably 464 00:22:13,427 --> 00:22:15,947 Speaker 22: the back three. It's probably the worst back three. 465 00:22:16,387 --> 00:22:19,507 Speaker 21: Performance that we've had in quite a long time. 466 00:22:19,627 --> 00:22:21,947 Speaker 22: Will Jordan for the last few games has been pretty 467 00:22:21,987 --> 00:22:25,747 Speaker 22: well nonexistent and probably the worst performance that. 468 00:22:25,827 --> 00:22:26,427 Speaker 23: He's put in. 469 00:22:28,147 --> 00:22:31,787 Speaker 21: So severa Reese, Well, I thought he had a pretty 470 00:22:31,827 --> 00:22:32,787 Speaker 21: good defensive role. 471 00:22:33,107 --> 00:22:35,507 Speaker 22: Again, I agreed with your previous quarter who was pushing 472 00:22:35,587 --> 00:22:38,867 Speaker 22: in quite a lot in the centers and constricting Jordi, 473 00:22:38,947 --> 00:22:42,987 Speaker 22: Barrett and Proctor to quite you know, quite a fine 474 00:22:43,067 --> 00:22:45,827 Speaker 22: line of where they'd be able to move and got 475 00:22:45,907 --> 00:22:48,267 Speaker 22: caught out quite a few times with kickers and passes 476 00:22:48,347 --> 00:22:51,827 Speaker 22: and stuff like that. And Rita I think his days done, 477 00:22:51,867 --> 00:22:55,147 Speaker 22: to be fair made I think he wasn't a center 478 00:22:55,427 --> 00:22:58,787 Speaker 22: and I think he's just lost all confidence over the 479 00:22:58,867 --> 00:23:01,707 Speaker 22: last probably a couple of years and doesn't really know 480 00:23:01,827 --> 00:23:04,147 Speaker 22: where what to do or we'd play anymore, which is 481 00:23:04,227 --> 00:23:07,107 Speaker 22: quite sad since you go from world class winger to 482 00:23:07,227 --> 00:23:10,187 Speaker 22: really a non existent show on what he had today. 483 00:23:11,547 --> 00:23:14,187 Speaker 22: The problem of God has made as a few like 484 00:23:14,627 --> 00:23:20,147 Speaker 22: with with Robinson's selections, I think listening to Steve Hansen's 485 00:23:20,787 --> 00:23:24,147 Speaker 22: podcast a few weeks ago, no one was guaranteed their spot, 486 00:23:24,587 --> 00:23:26,507 Speaker 22: and I think the likes of the Will Jordans and 487 00:23:26,587 --> 00:23:29,107 Speaker 22: the Artis Saves which everybody seems to be in love with, 488 00:23:29,467 --> 00:23:32,027 Speaker 22: who have not performed probably the last three or four 489 00:23:32,107 --> 00:23:36,787 Speaker 22: Test matches should actually probably be dropped because the likes 490 00:23:36,827 --> 00:23:39,027 Speaker 22: of Artie s V will probably turn around after being 491 00:23:39,107 --> 00:23:41,907 Speaker 22: dropped and probably have you know, an all incumbent game 492 00:23:41,947 --> 00:23:46,707 Speaker 22: of coming out firing. I thought we definitely missed Carifie 493 00:23:46,747 --> 00:23:50,347 Speaker 22: on the field this week, especially in the turnovers, and 494 00:23:50,427 --> 00:23:52,027 Speaker 22: I'd like to see Scott. 495 00:23:51,747 --> 00:23:53,467 Speaker 14: Barrett actually get in the referee's face. 496 00:23:53,547 --> 00:23:57,547 Speaker 22: The thing I've noticed a lot with Australia South Africa 497 00:23:57,627 --> 00:24:00,507 Speaker 22: and tonight with Argentina, the captain just goes in questions. 498 00:24:00,547 --> 00:24:03,067 Speaker 22: It doesn't doesn't have to be aggravated and asking and 499 00:24:03,547 --> 00:24:05,747 Speaker 22: and you know all pushing in annoy like we've seen 500 00:24:05,827 --> 00:24:08,067 Speaker 22: Nick White a few times over the years or a 501 00:24:08,107 --> 00:24:10,547 Speaker 22: few of our players, but he's just simply asking and 502 00:24:10,707 --> 00:24:13,387 Speaker 22: questioning rest's rules or asking what they can do better, 503 00:24:13,427 --> 00:24:15,187 Speaker 22: and always getting on the rests, you know, in the 504 00:24:15,227 --> 00:24:17,187 Speaker 22: rest space. And I don't think we've had that consistently 505 00:24:17,307 --> 00:24:19,787 Speaker 22: from either Scott when he's been doing it, or Ardie 506 00:24:19,827 --> 00:24:21,587 Speaker 22: when he's been doing it, or whoever's been taken over 507 00:24:21,667 --> 00:24:26,147 Speaker 22: from captain. I don't think we've had enough impact in 508 00:24:26,307 --> 00:24:28,347 Speaker 22: that space get talking to the referee to be fair 509 00:24:28,667 --> 00:24:30,947 Speaker 22: and questioning what you know, what's happening. I thought Nick 510 00:24:30,987 --> 00:24:33,667 Speaker 22: Berry had had a pretty fair game, to be fair 511 00:24:33,747 --> 00:24:36,907 Speaker 22: on calls both ways, so I don't think that's the blame. 512 00:24:36,987 --> 00:24:39,267 Speaker 22: I think New Zealand has been looking pretty average for 513 00:24:39,267 --> 00:24:42,787 Speaker 22: the last few matches and blaming it all on Bowden 514 00:24:42,867 --> 00:24:45,147 Speaker 22: Bart I don't think was pretty fair. I thought Will 515 00:24:45,227 --> 00:24:47,507 Speaker 22: Jordan probably should have been taken off in Citizen. 516 00:24:48,227 --> 00:24:50,267 Speaker 3: Right don at great points well made right. I've written 517 00:24:50,307 --> 00:24:52,267 Speaker 3: down some names here made as we try and construct 518 00:24:52,267 --> 00:24:55,707 Speaker 3: a back three for South Africa. I think Will Jordan 519 00:24:55,787 --> 00:24:57,867 Speaker 3: keeps his place. He has got four tries made, he's 520 00:24:57,907 --> 00:24:59,747 Speaker 3: a try scoring machine. I think he was. I think 521 00:24:59,787 --> 00:25:02,867 Speaker 3: he I don't think he was below you know, the 522 00:25:02,987 --> 00:25:05,827 Speaker 3: line against France. I think he's you know, he's he's 523 00:25:05,867 --> 00:25:08,347 Speaker 3: still got So I think Will Jordan stays there. I 524 00:25:08,427 --> 00:25:10,467 Speaker 3: think Caleb Clark is still injured. So I've written down 525 00:25:10,467 --> 00:25:16,307 Speaker 3: here Leo Carter, Sorry, Leroy Carter, Emoni, Nadawa, Reuben Love, 526 00:25:17,027 --> 00:25:20,387 Speaker 3: Severa Reese, Rico Yojani, so that they're the options. Really, 527 00:25:21,027 --> 00:25:23,187 Speaker 3: I'm looking forward to Caleb Clark coming back because he 528 00:25:23,227 --> 00:25:26,267 Speaker 3: will fix some of the aerial problems. But in his absence, 529 00:25:27,027 --> 00:25:29,227 Speaker 3: what is the back three against South Africa. Let's say 530 00:25:29,227 --> 00:25:31,027 Speaker 3: Will Jordan plays fullback. Who are the wingers? 531 00:25:33,427 --> 00:25:35,667 Speaker 22: Well, that's the problem. I mean, you haven't really he 532 00:25:35,707 --> 00:25:38,947 Speaker 22: hasn't really built any depths there. I think you've you'd 533 00:25:38,987 --> 00:25:41,107 Speaker 22: have to put maybe Nadawa in there. Or do you 534 00:25:41,187 --> 00:25:45,267 Speaker 22: look at someone like, yeah, well there, or do you 535 00:25:45,387 --> 00:25:47,227 Speaker 22: have to stick with Debby Reese really don't you? Or 536 00:25:47,507 --> 00:25:49,547 Speaker 22: or you have to turn around and stay to someone like, 537 00:25:50,787 --> 00:25:52,907 Speaker 22: you know, one of the new boys that haven't been picked, 538 00:25:53,067 --> 00:25:56,347 Speaker 22: like a I don't know, like a Naholo or one 539 00:25:56,387 --> 00:25:59,147 Speaker 22: of those guys you know, or a Tabanawa. He can 540 00:25:59,187 --> 00:26:00,667 Speaker 22: play out of the wing. Do you go to him 541 00:26:00,707 --> 00:26:02,427 Speaker 22: and go, yeah, this is your chance. 542 00:26:03,227 --> 00:26:06,187 Speaker 3: You know, this is yes, and it's such an interesting one. Dominant. 543 00:26:06,227 --> 00:26:08,587 Speaker 3: They're out of time, right, They're out of time. There's 544 00:26:08,587 --> 00:26:11,107 Speaker 3: no more games. The next game is this game that 545 00:26:11,307 --> 00:26:14,427 Speaker 3: has been circled in all of our calendars ever since 546 00:26:14,507 --> 00:26:17,467 Speaker 3: the schedule for the Rugby Championship was released, This big 547 00:26:17,547 --> 00:26:20,067 Speaker 3: game against South Africa Eden Park. We haven't lost there 548 00:26:20,107 --> 00:26:23,187 Speaker 3: for you know, since nineteen ninety four. Everything kind of 549 00:26:23,267 --> 00:26:27,267 Speaker 3: seemed to be leading towards this game. And we're now 550 00:26:27,347 --> 00:26:32,427 Speaker 3: out of time. There's no more opportunity to test things out. 551 00:26:32,587 --> 00:26:33,947 Speaker 3: So they kind of got to go all in on 552 00:26:34,067 --> 00:26:36,427 Speaker 3: whatever they go all and on. And I just don't 553 00:26:36,427 --> 00:26:39,387 Speaker 3: know whether there's the mood in this in this selection 554 00:26:39,547 --> 00:26:41,227 Speaker 3: panel to to make change. 555 00:26:42,027 --> 00:26:42,187 Speaker 6: You know. 556 00:26:42,627 --> 00:26:45,347 Speaker 3: Wingers for me are hot hands, you know. And they 557 00:26:45,387 --> 00:26:48,027 Speaker 3: talked about Leroy Carter coming into the All Blacks Wider 558 00:26:48,107 --> 00:26:52,027 Speaker 3: training group and tearing things up. I'd give them a game, man, I'd. 559 00:26:51,827 --> 00:26:54,947 Speaker 8: Give them a game, one hundred percent. 560 00:26:54,987 --> 00:26:57,307 Speaker 22: And I think for this time, Plinty, they should have 561 00:26:57,347 --> 00:27:00,627 Speaker 22: had Leroy Carter and Reuben Love in there. They should 562 00:27:00,667 --> 00:27:02,947 Speaker 22: have given them gain time before South Africa and they didn't. 563 00:27:03,187 --> 00:27:06,787 Speaker 22: It was it was a mis selection from them. The 564 00:27:06,867 --> 00:27:09,227 Speaker 22: other point I probably make is is the loose for 565 00:27:09,427 --> 00:27:12,947 Speaker 22: trio needs to be looked at again. Artie Selvera I 566 00:27:12,987 --> 00:27:15,507 Speaker 22: think thought had been quite quiet and maybe dropping him 567 00:27:15,507 --> 00:27:18,587 Speaker 22: would give him, you know, the aggravation going into South Africa. 568 00:27:19,667 --> 00:27:24,427 Speaker 22: I think unfortunately so TT and VII don't know or 569 00:27:24,507 --> 00:27:26,387 Speaker 22: don't look like they know where they want to play 570 00:27:26,427 --> 00:27:29,427 Speaker 22: in position wise, because they've been chucked in loose, loose 571 00:27:29,507 --> 00:27:31,547 Speaker 22: forward and lock so many times they don't know what 572 00:27:31,587 --> 00:27:33,987 Speaker 22: they're doing. I think VIA's ill discipline is a bit 573 00:27:34,027 --> 00:27:36,427 Speaker 22: of a worry because it's been brought up a few 574 00:27:36,507 --> 00:27:38,947 Speaker 22: times where he's been stuck a handout or done something 575 00:27:38,987 --> 00:27:42,147 Speaker 22: stupid to get sent off. So do you do you 576 00:27:42,307 --> 00:27:44,707 Speaker 22: change pack and look like someone you know, turn around 577 00:27:44,747 --> 00:27:48,667 Speaker 22: and give give the the Jacobson's or the Carters or 578 00:27:48,747 --> 00:27:52,267 Speaker 22: the you know, the caref. He's a chance and go 579 00:27:52,787 --> 00:27:55,947 Speaker 22: you've got your chance, stick with it. Do you bring 580 00:27:56,067 --> 00:27:58,627 Speaker 22: someone else in like your lark eyes? Do you or 581 00:27:58,787 --> 00:28:01,507 Speaker 22: your your sees or your tits and go we're all 582 00:28:01,547 --> 00:28:02,547 Speaker 22: building new these are you? 583 00:28:02,987 --> 00:28:03,507 Speaker 9: Loose forward? 584 00:28:03,587 --> 00:28:04,107 Speaker 15: Young boys? 585 00:28:04,587 --> 00:28:06,707 Speaker 22: Like Australia did a couple of years ago and the Schmidt. 586 00:28:07,307 --> 00:28:09,867 Speaker 22: You know, maybe and maybe we're pasted that time now, 587 00:28:09,987 --> 00:28:13,347 Speaker 22: maybe the selectors are too scared to do that, and 588 00:28:13,787 --> 00:28:17,547 Speaker 22: we're looking at probably another smashing in the World Cup Dominate. 589 00:28:17,627 --> 00:28:20,147 Speaker 3: Great points, well mate, thanks for ringing in and giving us, 590 00:28:20,427 --> 00:28:23,987 Speaker 3: giving us your thoughts, much appreciated.

I'm happy with 617 00:29:22,987 --> 00:29:25,307 Speaker 21: them over the last couple of tests. You know, when 618 00:29:25,347 --> 00:29:27,667 Speaker 21: we get close to the line, they managed to rumble 619 00:29:27,707 --> 00:29:31,787 Speaker 21: over and score tries. You know, they do well at 620 00:29:31,787 --> 00:29:35,947 Speaker 21: the set peace against a far bigger pack, which is 621 00:29:35,987 --> 00:29:38,907 Speaker 21: a good thing. So I see progress there. But when 622 00:29:38,947 --> 00:29:41,627 Speaker 21: it comes to the backs, what I've noticed in the 623 00:29:41,707 --> 00:29:44,827 Speaker 21: last maybe three or four years with the All Blacks 624 00:29:44,907 --> 00:29:49,987 Speaker 21: is our back line we're not producing the tries like 625 00:29:50,107 --> 00:29:54,587 Speaker 21: we used to. We're scoring with the backs opportunistic tries, 626 00:29:55,387 --> 00:29:57,467 Speaker 21: and I think there's a lack of punch. I mean, 627 00:29:57,667 --> 00:29:59,587 Speaker 21: going back in the day, you know, we yet Manon 628 00:29:59,747 --> 00:30:04,067 Speaker 21: ub and Conrad Smith, et cetera. They were making tries 629 00:30:04,547 --> 00:30:07,587 Speaker 21: in free play, whereas the current crew that we have 630 00:30:07,747 --> 00:30:11,427 Speaker 21: playing right now are being shut down by everybody you 631 00:30:11,507 --> 00:30:13,347 Speaker 21: know in the top four or five in the world. 632 00:30:13,467 --> 00:30:14,907 Speaker 21: So I think we're going to have a lot of that. 633 00:30:14,987 --> 00:30:17,107 Speaker 21: I mean, another thing is I don't know why we 634 00:30:17,227 --> 00:30:21,707 Speaker 21: haven't dayboot the Otago Playoff five. Sorry the Highlanders player 635 00:30:22,267 --> 00:30:22,987 Speaker 21: at Tava. 636 00:30:22,907 --> 00:30:28,027 Speaker 3: Tava sorry ta ta Now he has day boot he 637 00:30:28,427 --> 00:30:31,027 Speaker 3: yep he played, Yep. No, he played off the bench 638 00:30:31,387 --> 00:30:36,347 Speaker 3: in well in Wellington and Hamilton against France. Okay, so yeah, 639 00:30:36,707 --> 00:30:37,987 Speaker 3: but he is there. 640 00:30:40,027 --> 00:30:41,707 Speaker 21: I want to see him start a game at twelve, 641 00:30:42,187 --> 00:30:45,227 Speaker 21: Jordy at thirteen. I want to see Will Jordan moves 642 00:30:45,627 --> 00:30:48,987 Speaker 21: to the right wing until Caleb gets back, Reese on 643 00:30:49,067 --> 00:30:52,147 Speaker 21: the left and Reuben Love at fallback. Because yeah, I 644 00:30:52,267 --> 00:30:55,227 Speaker 21: love Will Jordan because I'm a one eyed Cantabrian, but 645 00:30:55,907 --> 00:30:58,907 Speaker 21: under the high ball and international rugby, he's just not 646 00:30:59,587 --> 00:31:03,747 Speaker 21: doing it. I mean, game after game after game, he 647 00:31:03,947 --> 00:31:08,107 Speaker 21: is not winning the percentage catch as a fallback. And 648 00:31:08,467 --> 00:31:11,627 Speaker 21: that's the most important thing for a fallback is, as 649 00:31:11,867 --> 00:31:14,907 Speaker 21: previous callers have said, absolute weakness for the old beets. 650 00:31:14,947 --> 00:31:17,147 Speaker 21: If I'm a South African in two weeks, what I'm 651 00:31:17,187 --> 00:31:19,187 Speaker 21: going to do. I'm going to put half back bombs 652 00:31:19,267 --> 00:31:22,267 Speaker 21: up all day and just hammer hammer, hammer, hammer hammer. 653 00:31:22,707 --> 00:31:25,387 Speaker 21: So I think we need to adapt and give other 654 00:31:25,427 --> 00:31:28,027 Speaker 21: guys an opportunity. Two years out from a World Cup. 655 00:31:28,187 --> 00:31:30,627 Speaker 21: This is the year to breed guys into the team 656 00:31:30,667 --> 00:31:33,227 Speaker 21: that are going to be there. So this is the 657 00:31:33,307 --> 00:31:37,147 Speaker 21: time to shine. And you know, give the selectors a 658 00:31:37,187 --> 00:31:39,467 Speaker 21: little bit of a headache if we keep down with 659 00:31:39,507 --> 00:31:43,267 Speaker 21: this trajectory. We've got a dud backline. We're not punching 660 00:31:43,387 --> 00:31:44,067 Speaker 21: through holes. 661 00:31:45,987 --> 00:31:48,347 Speaker 3: Just on the move of Will Jordan. If he moved 662 00:31:48,347 --> 00:31:50,107 Speaker 3: to the wing, he'd still be the subject of an 663 00:31:50,147 --> 00:31:53,787 Speaker 3: aerial aerial bombardment. Chris, I think you know, they talk 664 00:31:53,787 --> 00:31:56,827 Speaker 3: about the back three almost being interchangeable. I take your point, 665 00:31:56,907 --> 00:31:59,467 Speaker 3: but I think you know, whether you move Will Jordan 666 00:31:59,587 --> 00:32:03,907 Speaker 3: or not. I think the greater work on is his 667 00:32:04,507 --> 00:32:07,387 Speaker 3: aerial game. And look, he's a very intense elligent rugby player. 668 00:32:07,747 --> 00:32:10,587 Speaker 3: I'm sure that under the right guidance he would improve 669 00:32:10,627 --> 00:32:12,867 Speaker 3: in that area, and I'm sure he's doing a high 670 00:32:12,907 --> 00:32:16,867 Speaker 3: degree of self reflection on it. But yeah, and now 671 00:32:16,907 --> 00:32:20,387 Speaker 3: I'm not sure that they've worked out the best back three. Yeah, 672 00:32:20,427 --> 00:32:23,147 Speaker 3: I'm not sold on en Rico Yoanni on the wing. 673 00:32:24,627 --> 00:32:25,907 Speaker 3: Just Shane Caleb Clark. 674 00:32:25,747 --> 00:32:29,627 Speaker 21: Isn't there, you know, absolutely like Cayler Clark. Like for me, 675 00:32:30,107 --> 00:32:32,747 Speaker 21: he's got that John o Lomu factor in a way 676 00:32:33,107 --> 00:32:35,267 Speaker 21: that one on one he can bash a bloke over. 677 00:32:36,507 --> 00:32:38,827 Speaker 21: And I look forward to his return, even though he's 678 00:32:38,827 --> 00:32:43,507 Speaker 21: from Aukland, so I hadn't thrown it in there, but 679 00:32:43,627 --> 00:32:48,827 Speaker 21: I see his just absolute damaging capability, and you know, 680 00:32:49,467 --> 00:32:52,827 Speaker 21: riccu Yani doesn't have that anymore. He used to be 681 00:32:52,867 --> 00:32:55,267 Speaker 21: an absolute speeds to maybe he's off the pace a 682 00:32:55,307 --> 00:32:58,387 Speaker 21: little bit or a bit tensive of you know, he's 683 00:32:58,427 --> 00:33:01,067 Speaker 21: great defensively, I'll give him that really good tackler. No 684 00:33:01,147 --> 00:33:04,987 Speaker 21: one gets past him, but just an attack, he just 685 00:33:05,947 --> 00:33:08,547 Speaker 21: he just doesn't have the go forward that we require 686 00:33:08,627 --> 00:33:11,667 Speaker 21: from a left winger. And we've been used to really 687 00:33:11,707 --> 00:33:15,227 Speaker 21: good wingers in New Zealand, and I think when they 688 00:33:15,267 --> 00:33:18,747 Speaker 21: moved him to center, they sort of pulled that out 689 00:33:18,787 --> 00:33:21,187 Speaker 21: of his game. And now we're seeing the reward of 690 00:33:21,227 --> 00:33:24,107 Speaker 21: him being stuck at center for so many years. So 691 00:33:24,867 --> 00:33:28,987 Speaker 21: I think his days, you know, his days are coming, unfortunately, 692 00:33:29,067 --> 00:33:30,707 Speaker 21: but he's had a good career. I'll give him that. 693 00:33:31,347 --> 00:33:33,467 Speaker 3: Good on you, Chris, thanks for calling him mate. Yeah, look, 694 00:33:33,587 --> 00:33:36,987 Speaker 3: I think there's certainly some thinking to do around selection 695 00:33:37,107 --> 00:33:39,907 Speaker 3: of the back three. I'd keep Will Jordan at fallback. 696 00:33:39,987 --> 00:33:42,707 Speaker 3: I absolutely would. I think that's his position and that's 697 00:33:42,707 --> 00:33:45,187 Speaker 3: where I would play him. But I think the eleven 698 00:33:45,267 --> 00:33:48,827 Speaker 3: and fourteen jumpers are well and truly up for grabs, 699 00:33:49,227 --> 00:33:51,387 Speaker 3: well and truly up for grabs, not just now, but 700 00:33:51,507 --> 00:33:53,507 Speaker 3: over the next couple of years. I don't think with 701 00:33:53,707 --> 00:33:56,027 Speaker 3: any degree of certainty you could say who's going to 702 00:33:56,027 --> 00:33:57,307 Speaker 3: start for the All Blacks in the first game of 703 00:33:57,387 --> 00:34:00,147 Speaker 3: the next Rugby World Cup on the wings? You know, 704 00:34:00,347 --> 00:34:02,867 Speaker 3: you think about when George Bridge came into the side. 705 00:34:02,867 --> 00:34:05,227 Speaker 3: I think with sevu Reese said, head of the twenty 706 00:34:05,387 --> 00:34:08,587 Speaker 3: nineteen Rugby World Cup. You know that hardly played, but 707 00:34:08,627 --> 00:34:10,867 Speaker 3: they were the hot hand, A pot of ham up, 708 00:34:11,147 --> 00:34:15,227 Speaker 3: Hello mate, beautiful. 709 00:34:14,947 --> 00:34:15,787 Speaker 19: Day A well he's today. 710 00:34:17,747 --> 00:34:18,507 Speaker 26: Just just think start. 711 00:34:20,107 --> 00:34:21,907 Speaker 19: I haven't called you for a couple of months, and 712 00:34:22,107 --> 00:34:24,067 Speaker 19: the last time was when old Scott Robertson was on 713 00:34:25,147 --> 00:34:31,747 Speaker 19: and I asked him the question about kick reception, kick diffusing, 714 00:34:32,467 --> 00:34:36,147 Speaker 19: kick chase and he didn't really answer it and his 715 00:34:36,307 --> 00:34:38,867 Speaker 19: team are still not answering it on the field and 716 00:34:39,067 --> 00:34:40,147 Speaker 19: it's killing. 717 00:34:40,027 --> 00:34:42,187 Speaker 21: Us and you. 718 00:34:44,787 --> 00:34:47,947 Speaker 19: I just don't and it's too late. We've had two 719 00:34:48,027 --> 00:34:49,827 Speaker 19: months to maybe get a bit better at it. 720 00:34:50,147 --> 00:34:53,547 Speaker 8: There's a little guys, like Delgy, how's he catching the ball? 721 00:34:53,587 --> 00:34:54,427 Speaker 13: He's five foot two? 722 00:34:55,067 --> 00:34:55,227 Speaker 4: You know. 723 00:34:55,507 --> 00:35:00,507 Speaker 19: So it's like we have the I might be catastrophied, 724 00:35:00,587 --> 00:35:03,587 Speaker 19: but we have the worst kick reception, kick chase game 725 00:35:04,027 --> 00:35:08,187 Speaker 19: of any of these top teams going around. And why 726 00:35:08,267 --> 00:35:10,747 Speaker 19: aren't they fixed in it? It's obvious, right if a 727 00:35:10,787 --> 00:35:13,427 Speaker 19: punter like me can said then who's never played women, 728 00:35:14,427 --> 00:35:17,787 Speaker 19: even senior rugby? Why are they not fixing it? Why 729 00:35:17,787 --> 00:35:20,867 Speaker 19: are they practicing the school set? And on our backs? Man, 730 00:35:20,947 --> 00:35:25,147 Speaker 19: they don't look confident either. They just they don't look 731 00:35:25,147 --> 00:35:28,467 Speaker 19: confident on d they don't look confident in attack. And 732 00:35:28,547 --> 00:35:30,667 Speaker 19: they were the same last year to a large degree. 733 00:35:30,827 --> 00:35:34,387 Speaker 19: So and now the Box are going to roll into town. 734 00:35:34,427 --> 00:35:36,747 Speaker 19: And that game this morning was a kick fest and 735 00:35:36,827 --> 00:35:39,267 Speaker 19: a kickchase fest. And you know, Osi do quite well 736 00:35:39,307 --> 00:35:41,427 Speaker 19: at it and compete pretty well, but you know guys 737 00:35:41,467 --> 00:35:43,547 Speaker 19: like Chessl and Colby he's a bit of a master 738 00:35:43,627 --> 00:35:46,307 Speaker 19: in the kick chase. Yeah, Pinney, she's going to be 739 00:35:46,387 --> 00:35:47,907 Speaker 19: a big test match in a couple of weeks. 740 00:35:48,227 --> 00:35:48,467 Speaker 18: It is. 741 00:35:48,667 --> 00:35:51,867 Speaker 3: It's massive, yeah. And the aerial game, it is, it's 742 00:35:52,027 --> 00:35:55,387 Speaker 3: just become a vulnerability and now it'll be a target. 743 00:35:55,707 --> 00:35:57,667 Speaker 3: Is just I mean they're just gonna the ceth ebrig 744 00:35:57,747 --> 00:35:59,307 Speaker 3: will come into town and just and they will. They'll 745 00:35:59,347 --> 00:36:02,387 Speaker 3: have an aerial game that they you know that they 746 00:36:03,027 --> 00:36:05,587 Speaker 3: employed at Eden Park and probably in Wellington as well 747 00:36:05,947 --> 00:36:08,707 Speaker 3: because the sense of vulnerability there. As Anstram said during 748 00:36:08,747 --> 00:36:10,747 Speaker 3: our radio commentary, if you if you catch the first 749 00:36:10,787 --> 00:36:12,627 Speaker 3: three or four, they stopped doing it and look for 750 00:36:12,667 --> 00:36:15,627 Speaker 3: another way. But if they are contesting and we're not 751 00:36:15,747 --> 00:36:18,907 Speaker 3: diffusing and not receiving, well, then they'll keep doing it 752 00:36:18,947 --> 00:36:21,547 Speaker 3: because they'll get change out of it, as Argentina did 753 00:36:21,627 --> 00:36:22,107 Speaker 3: this morning. 754 00:36:24,907 --> 00:36:28,107 Speaker 19: Yeah, and I don't want to kick a guy, but 755 00:36:28,747 --> 00:36:30,907 Speaker 19: and they'll mate. Just before talking about Reeks D, but 756 00:36:31,347 --> 00:36:34,147 Speaker 19: even this morning, okay, we had so many guys off 757 00:36:34,187 --> 00:36:37,667 Speaker 19: the field. So yeah, even as D was a bit 758 00:36:37,907 --> 00:36:41,347 Speaker 19: useless today. But yeah, his offense, it's almost like playing 759 00:36:41,427 --> 00:36:44,147 Speaker 19: center ruined him as a winger. It seems like, yeah, 760 00:36:44,147 --> 00:36:44,387 Speaker 19: well he. 761 00:36:44,787 --> 00:36:46,587 Speaker 3: Went all on senate, didn't he He went all in 762 00:36:46,707 --> 00:36:48,667 Speaker 3: on center, and when he was playing in the centers 763 00:36:48,787 --> 00:36:51,347 Speaker 3: or playing at center, he just almost refused to entertain 764 00:36:51,387 --> 00:36:53,227 Speaker 3: the idea of going back to the wing. It's only 765 00:36:53,227 --> 00:36:55,747 Speaker 3: the emergence of Billy Proctor who that that has basically 766 00:36:56,347 --> 00:36:58,587 Speaker 3: you know, necessitated this. But they don't have to pick 767 00:36:58,707 --> 00:37:00,867 Speaker 3: Rico Ywani on the wing if they don't want to. 768 00:37:00,987 --> 00:37:03,187 Speaker 3: I mean that's obvious. They could they could go a 769 00:37:03,267 --> 00:37:06,107 Speaker 3: different way. They could have given Carter a game Nadawah 770 00:37:06,707 --> 00:37:09,467 Speaker 3: even Ruben Love. It's it's like I say, though, Padahama, 771 00:37:09,547 --> 00:37:13,107 Speaker 3: It's it's too late now. You know, there's no more 772 00:37:13,147 --> 00:37:13,747 Speaker 3: Gaffer time. 773 00:37:13,827 --> 00:37:17,307 Speaker 19: It's boom for time, unleash boom for Edam Park. He's 774 00:37:17,347 --> 00:37:21,787 Speaker 19: a him and Sevu because the energy guys, the energy 775 00:37:21,827 --> 00:37:25,667 Speaker 19: over the ruck that you know what, they bring some energy, 776 00:37:25,747 --> 00:37:28,187 Speaker 19: those two boys. And then I feel like our backland 777 00:37:28,227 --> 00:37:28,947 Speaker 19: needs at the moment. 778 00:37:29,627 --> 00:37:32,627 Speaker 3: Indeed, enjoy the sunshine of Padahama.

That's good, that's a good question. 798 00:38:24,507 --> 00:38:25,707 Speaker 28: I'm not sure I can answer it right now. 799 00:38:25,747 --> 00:38:25,907 Speaker 8: Why. 800 00:38:26,267 --> 00:38:28,587 Speaker 18: Uh, we wanted to play with. 801 00:38:30,067 --> 00:38:31,947 Speaker 28: A lot more care than that then, you know, for 802 00:38:32,347 --> 00:38:34,147 Speaker 28: Cody and put Ash show and finish this tour, and 803 00:38:34,867 --> 00:38:35,747 Speaker 28: we didn't get that way. 804 00:38:35,827 --> 00:38:39,547 Speaker 3: So it wasn't it wasn't what we wanted. 805 00:38:39,587 --> 00:38:40,427 Speaker 18: We're gonna have to look deep. 806 00:38:41,387 --> 00:38:43,627 Speaker 24: Three yellow cards in this kind of game. 807 00:38:43,547 --> 00:38:47,267 Speaker 3: Is this is what happens? Just hands out? Yeah, exactly, 808 00:38:47,627 --> 00:38:48,507 Speaker 3: three yellow cards. 809 00:38:49,107 --> 00:38:51,587 Speaker 28: They kicked all their penalties. We fought our way back 810 00:38:51,627 --> 00:38:53,187 Speaker 28: into the game, but we went holding the ball for 811 00:38:53,267 --> 00:38:54,027 Speaker 28: long periods of time. 812 00:38:54,587 --> 00:38:57,547 Speaker 8: An overall, thinking about these two games here in Argentina. 813 00:38:58,107 --> 00:39:02,307 Speaker 28: Ah, just this competition is tough. I think you can 814 00:39:02,347 --> 00:39:04,027 Speaker 28: realize with all the results to date so. 815 00:39:04,147 --> 00:39:06,067 Speaker 18: Far, that anyone can win. On the day, you're going 816 00:39:06,107 --> 00:39:07,067 Speaker 18: to be eat. 817 00:39:06,907 --> 00:39:08,507 Speaker 6: Your best more than ever. 818 00:39:09,587 --> 00:39:12,467 Speaker 3: Yes, this the score, that's. 819 00:39:12,347 --> 00:39:15,427 Speaker 28: What the table looks like now, doesn't it That anyone 820 00:39:15,507 --> 00:39:18,467 Speaker 28: can win and that's what the competition want about, and 821 00:39:18,547 --> 00:39:19,187 Speaker 28: we're going to be better. 822 00:39:19,547 --> 00:39:20,627 Speaker 6: Thank you very much, thank you. 823 00:39:20,707 --> 00:39:24,827 Speaker 3: That is Scott Robertson shortly after full time. Hello, Jeff 824 00:39:26,267 --> 00:39:27,427 Speaker 3: pay Good morning, Jason. 825 00:39:27,787 --> 00:39:29,307 Speaker 13: I don't know that was my query. 826 00:39:29,667 --> 00:39:33,507 Speaker 29: Nobody's mentioned Robinson. I've got my doubts about him, and 827 00:39:33,907 --> 00:39:36,387 Speaker 29: I think there's a few players that need replace him 828 00:39:36,387 --> 00:39:40,947 Speaker 29: with young blood now and he's not. I don't think 829 00:39:40,987 --> 00:39:43,387 Speaker 29: he's made out or turning out to be what what 830 00:39:43,507 --> 00:39:45,827 Speaker 29: everyone thought he was going to be the Cracker Jet coach, 831 00:39:46,267 --> 00:39:48,427 Speaker 29: and I think he's got to answer some questions now 832 00:39:48,747 --> 00:39:51,427 Speaker 29: about these positions of players met. 833 00:39:52,067 --> 00:39:54,267 Speaker 8: But thanks Jason, I appreciate good. 834 00:39:54,187 --> 00:39:56,627 Speaker 30: To listen to you. And that's my thoughts anyway. 835 00:39:57,307 --> 00:40:00,147 Speaker 3: Very succinct and points well made. Jeff. I'm a big 836 00:40:00,227 --> 00:40:02,907 Speaker 3: part of coaching a selection, right, huge part of coaching 837 00:40:02,947 --> 00:40:06,907 Speaker 3: a selection. And Scott Robinson, I think probably fair to 838 00:40:06,907 --> 00:40:10,547 Speaker 3: say he's been conservative with his selections. He has given 839 00:40:10,587 --> 00:40:13,147 Speaker 3: a lot of guy's debuts last year in particular and 840 00:40:13,227 --> 00:40:16,947 Speaker 3: this year as well. But in terms of the you know, 841 00:40:17,347 --> 00:40:21,547 Speaker 3: I don't think we've seen some real innovation in selections. 842 00:40:21,987 --> 00:40:23,667 Speaker 3: But then again, I look at two Pervai playing at 843 00:40:23,667 --> 00:40:26,187 Speaker 3: six for example, Simon Parker coming in for this game. 844 00:40:27,107 --> 00:40:29,867 Speaker 3: So yes, selection is going to be a massive part 845 00:40:29,947 --> 00:40:32,027 Speaker 3: of the build up to the South African game. 846 00:40:32,067 --> 00:40:35,507 Speaker 26: Good day, Calvin, Good morning Jason. I listened to the 847 00:40:35,947 --> 00:40:40,307 Speaker 26: game on ZBY Radio and what surprised me amazed me 848 00:40:40,387 --> 00:40:43,947 Speaker 26: in a way with the score line going from thirteen 849 00:40:44,227 --> 00:40:48,507 Speaker 26: six to the Orblecks to thirteen twenty six to Argentina. 850 00:40:48,827 --> 00:40:51,147 Speaker 26: And I was curious when it was the last time 851 00:40:51,787 --> 00:40:54,747 Speaker 26: the Orbles had twenty unanswered points against them. 852 00:40:56,387 --> 00:41:00,827 Speaker 3: I'm sure that somebody will know, Kelvin. Look, yeah, I 853 00:41:02,227 --> 00:41:04,987 Speaker 3: don't know the answer is the answer. I'll check though, 854 00:41:05,267 --> 00:41:08,587 Speaker 3: But yeah, it's thirteen all at halftime. The yellow cards 855 00:41:08,627 --> 00:41:13,427 Speaker 3: obviously just before halftime hurt. And yeah, there's a lot 856 00:41:13,467 --> 00:41:15,627 Speaker 3: of things to drill down into a couple of texts 857 00:41:15,627 --> 00:41:19,307 Speaker 3: before we go to the news. Credit to Argentina says 858 00:41:19,347 --> 00:41:22,587 Speaker 3: Nathan is this their best rugby yet ever? Already went 859 00:41:22,667 --> 00:41:24,947 Speaker 3: over the lines. Now the all Blacks at home, nothing 860 00:41:25,027 --> 00:41:28,707 Speaker 3: but stoked for them, and the genuine revival of international 861 00:41:28,787 --> 00:41:32,907 Speaker 3: rugby and Nathan's dead right there and the rush to 862 00:41:33,107 --> 00:41:36,627 Speaker 3: try and analyze and All Blacks lost. We do sometimes 863 00:41:36,667 --> 00:41:39,907 Speaker 3: forget to give credit to the opposition and Argentina right 864 00:41:39,987 --> 00:41:44,067 Speaker 3: from the start this morning were into it, right into it. 865 00:41:44,147 --> 00:41:46,467 Speaker 3: And I thought when they came out firing, yeah, of 866 00:41:46,507 --> 00:41:49,507 Speaker 3: course they're always emotional when they start games. The anthem 867 00:41:50,267 --> 00:41:53,027 Speaker 3: stirs them up, doesn't it, and they come out firing. 868 00:41:53,147 --> 00:41:55,547 Speaker 3: But the All Blacks more often than not in the 869 00:41:55,627 --> 00:41:58,867 Speaker 3: past have soaked that up. Yes, maybe you know, gone 870 00:41:58,947 --> 00:42:00,827 Speaker 3: behind early in games, but have found a way back 871 00:42:00,867 --> 00:42:03,987 Speaker 3: in and they did today up until the yellow cards 872 00:42:04,147 --> 00:42:07,027 Speaker 3: just before halftime, which I think we're a bit of 873 00:42:07,067 --> 00:42:11,747 Speaker 3: a turning point, weren't they news at midday and then 874 00:42:11,867 --> 00:42:14,707 Speaker 3: weekend sport continues. Jason Holland, assistant coach of the side, 875 00:42:14,747 --> 00:42:15,787 Speaker 3: is with us straight after. 876 00:42:15,627 --> 00:42:19,307 Speaker 31: Twelve hea this week I went to New Zealand blood 877 00:42:19,427 --> 00:42:21,707 Speaker 31: and I gave plasma. It was the first time I've 878 00:42:21,747 --> 00:42:23,307 Speaker 31: ever done it. And I tell you what, I have 879 00:42:24,027 --> 00:42:26,747 Speaker 31: never been so appreciated in all my life. If you're 880 00:42:26,787 --> 00:42:30,067 Speaker 31: feeling sort of like no one's appreciating you. These days, 881 00:42:30,227 --> 00:42:35,107 Speaker 31: go and give blood or plasma. They are hugely desperate 882 00:42:35,627 --> 00:42:39,267 Speaker 31: for both. Giving blood it look the process takes about 883 00:42:39,307 --> 00:42:41,387 Speaker 31: five to ten minutes. Takes about an hour in total 884 00:42:41,467 --> 00:42:43,547 Speaker 31: though to sort of get organized at the beginning and 885 00:42:43,627 --> 00:42:45,387 Speaker 31: to make sure you're okay afterwards, and you will be 886 00:42:45,387 --> 00:42:48,867 Speaker 31: absolutely fine. The plasma takes about an hour and a half. 887 00:42:49,107 --> 00:42:52,027 Speaker 31: You can do plasma every two weeks. You can only 888 00:42:52,067 --> 00:42:55,427 Speaker 31: give blood every three months. It's only four times a year. 889 00:42:56,147 --> 00:42:56,907 Speaker 3: But I'm not kidding. 890 00:42:56,987 --> 00:42:59,867 Speaker 31: I got embarrassed at how many people came up to 891 00:42:59,947 --> 00:43:01,827 Speaker 31: thank me for what I was doing, which was a 892 00:43:01,947 --> 00:43:05,787 Speaker 31: very simple, easy thing to do, hugely very well looked 893 00:43:05,827 --> 00:43:10,027 Speaker 31: after the teas and Bickie's and everyone's in there treating 894 00:43:10,107 --> 00:43:11,347 Speaker 31: you like is saying to And I actually got a 895 00:43:11,347 --> 00:43:14,947 Speaker 31: little bit embarrassed, but you could kind of feel the desperation. 896 00:43:15,507 --> 00:43:19,107 Speaker 31: If you have a moment, jump online go to nzblood 897 00:43:19,107 --> 00:43:21,707 Speaker 31: dot co dot enz As I said, they desperately need blood, 898 00:43:22,027 --> 00:43:25,627 Speaker 31: they desperately need plasma, and you know God for that 899 00:43:25,827 --> 00:43:28,587 Speaker 31: You or a family member or a friend may need them. 900 00:43:28,627 --> 00:43:31,267 Speaker 31: But you never know when this may happen, So it'll 901 00:43:31,307 --> 00:43:33,867 Speaker 31: be wonderful if you've got an opportunity, go do it. 902 00:43:34,267 --> 00:43:36,227 Speaker 3: They will love you for it. 903 00:43:37,027 --> 00:43:41,827 Speaker 31: Nzblood dot co dot NZ.

And 920 00:44:43,987 --> 00:44:49,187 Speaker 5: what a side is is bouncing Argentina. They did it 921 00:44:49,307 --> 00:44:53,027 Speaker 5: in Paramatta, they did it in christ Church, they did 922 00:44:53,067 --> 00:44:57,027 Speaker 5: it in Wellington, but now they do it's in their capital. 923 00:44:57,707 --> 00:45:01,827 Speaker 3: Yes, Indeed, history made in Buona series. This morning, Argentina 924 00:45:01,907 --> 00:45:03,667 Speaker 3: have beaten the All Blacks for the first time on 925 00:45:03,827 --> 00:45:08,227 Speaker 3: home soil twenty nine, twenty three. That means that after 926 00:45:08,267 --> 00:45:10,907 Speaker 3: two rounds of the Rugby Championship, all four teams have 927 00:45:10,987 --> 00:45:13,187 Speaker 3: a win and a loss. The All Blacks pick up 928 00:45:13,187 --> 00:45:16,027 Speaker 3: a bonus point from that late penalty from Damien McKenzie 929 00:45:16,347 --> 00:45:20,787 Speaker 3: which got them to within seven. But big challenges in coming, 930 00:45:20,987 --> 00:45:24,107 Speaker 3: massive challenges in coming from South Africa and from Australia. 931 00:45:24,827 --> 00:45:26,707 Speaker 3: Let's not beat around the bush. This could be the 932 00:45:26,827 --> 00:45:32,787 Speaker 3: closest Rugby Championship in many, many years. Oh, eight hundred 933 00:45:32,787 --> 00:45:34,467 Speaker 3: and eighty ten eighty is our phone number. Lines have 934 00:45:34,547 --> 00:45:37,307 Speaker 3: been opened since full time and we couldn't get everybody 935 00:45:37,347 --> 00:45:39,627 Speaker 3: on the air before twelve. We'll give it a crack. 936 00:45:40,307 --> 00:45:43,307 Speaker 3: We'll certainly give it a crack. They're open the lines 937 00:45:43,307 --> 00:45:45,347 Speaker 3: on eight hundred and eighty ten eighty anything you want 938 00:45:45,347 --> 00:45:50,867 Speaker 3: to pick up on. Look, there's plenty to unpack here. Messy, 939 00:45:50,947 --> 00:45:55,787 Speaker 3: scrappy performance and accuracy ill disciplined. Three yellow cards penalty 940 00:45:55,827 --> 00:45:59,027 Speaker 3: has given away in dangerous positions. Lots of work to 941 00:45:59,147 --> 00:46:01,827 Speaker 3: do in the air. The aerial battle is just so 942 00:46:01,947 --> 00:46:04,587 Speaker 3: important these days and the All Blacks ain't winning it. 943 00:46:05,507 --> 00:46:10,387 Speaker 3: They're not winning their battle. So rugby is our focus 944 00:46:10,427 --> 00:46:11,947 Speaker 3: for the first hour of the show. We also look, 945 00:46:12,027 --> 00:46:14,467 Speaker 3: let's not forget the Warriors. Let's not forget the Warriors. 946 00:46:14,547 --> 00:46:17,627 Speaker 3: We don't, we will not forget. Then I went last 947 00:46:17,707 --> 00:46:19,507 Speaker 3: night on the Gold Coast. It looked like a home game, 948 00:46:19,547 --> 00:46:21,987 Speaker 3: didn't it. So many Kiwis on the Gold Coast loved it, 949 00:46:22,307 --> 00:46:25,387 Speaker 3: absolutely loved it. And the Warriors getting the one back 950 00:46:25,427 --> 00:46:27,347 Speaker 3: to back, they keep their top four destiny in their 951 00:46:27,387 --> 00:46:29,627 Speaker 3: own hands.

Jason, thanks for your time. 967 00:47:17,707 --> 00:47:20,307 Speaker 3: What is front of mind as you reflect on the 968 00:47:20,427 --> 00:47:21,307 Speaker 3: performance tonight? 969 00:47:22,547 --> 00:47:24,307 Speaker 32: Look, there's lots of things, friend of mine obviously, just 970 00:47:25,027 --> 00:47:30,387 Speaker 32: ultimately really disappointed and in performance. You know, Argentinians played 971 00:47:30,427 --> 00:47:33,507 Speaker 32: some good footy, but you know where we're seeing them 972 00:47:33,547 --> 00:47:36,347 Speaker 32: has a lot of areas tonight and it cost. 973 00:47:36,187 --> 00:47:38,867 Speaker 3: Us which areas in particular? 974 00:47:40,307 --> 00:47:42,907 Speaker 18: Oh, look, mat there was you know a lot of 975 00:47:42,947 --> 00:47:45,707 Speaker 18: areas where we didn't perform where we wanted to. 976 00:47:45,787 --> 00:47:49,907 Speaker 32: Obviously, you know, the Argentinians kicked really well and one 977 00:47:49,947 --> 00:47:53,307 Speaker 32: the year most times, which is which is a massive 978 00:47:53,307 --> 00:47:55,027 Speaker 32: part of the game these days, and as we've seen 979 00:47:55,147 --> 00:47:58,107 Speaker 32: from all the rugby like today with the Sun African 980 00:47:58,107 --> 00:48:01,427 Speaker 32: AUSI game and our game, if you can't win the year, 981 00:48:01,507 --> 00:48:03,347 Speaker 32: then then you loser on a position and you put 982 00:48:03,387 --> 00:48:04,227 Speaker 32: yourself under pressure. 983 00:48:04,267 --> 00:48:07,307 Speaker 18: That's a big point, you know. 984 00:48:07,387 --> 00:48:09,907 Speaker 32: Even like a lot of our attack and our strike 985 00:48:10,227 --> 00:48:11,987 Speaker 32: was you know, some of our line out and stuff 986 00:48:12,147 --> 00:48:15,267 Speaker 32: was off for our execution, which meant we couldn't build pressure. 987 00:48:15,347 --> 00:48:19,427 Speaker 32: And Nick Berry has always been a referee who who 988 00:48:19,867 --> 00:48:22,947 Speaker 32: you know, gives advantage for the people the team with 989 00:48:23,107 --> 00:48:25,427 Speaker 32: ball in hand, and because of those two reasons, we 990 00:48:25,467 --> 00:48:27,627 Speaker 32: didn't have it and cost us. 991 00:48:27,907 --> 00:48:31,867 Speaker 18: So you know, there's still three key areas. And then yeah, 992 00:48:32,267 --> 00:48:35,267 Speaker 18: not much to not much that we were overly happy with. 993 00:48:36,027 --> 00:48:38,427 Speaker 3: How big a work on is being better in the 994 00:48:38,467 --> 00:48:40,427 Speaker 3: aerial battle, Jase, And how do you do that? 995 00:48:42,227 --> 00:48:45,707 Speaker 32: Yeah, look, it's we've been working pretty hard in the year. 996 00:48:45,827 --> 00:48:47,467 Speaker 32: Just it's it's really important to get up and win 997 00:48:47,507 --> 00:48:50,187 Speaker 32: the collision in the year these days with know as 998 00:48:50,227 --> 00:48:52,707 Speaker 32: the rules have changed and you can't give any protection 999 00:48:52,827 --> 00:48:55,387 Speaker 32: to the catcher. It's a contests, so you've got to 1000 00:48:55,427 --> 00:48:56,907 Speaker 32: be strong in the air. You've got to get higher 1001 00:48:56,907 --> 00:49:00,427 Speaker 32: and be stronger than the opposition. And the Argentinian wingers 1002 00:49:00,467 --> 00:49:05,187 Speaker 32: were outstanding tonight and and won all those contests. So mate, 1003 00:49:05,827 --> 00:49:08,027 Speaker 32: it's a it's a must go forward that we must 1004 00:49:08,067 --> 00:49:10,747 Speaker 32: be stronger in the air and we must win win 1005 00:49:10,827 --> 00:49:12,387 Speaker 32: the possession from from those kicks. 1006 00:49:13,067 --> 00:49:16,507 Speaker 3: Have the back three that that started today. Rico Yuanni 1007 00:49:16,587 --> 00:49:18,747 Speaker 3: severiese Will Jordan. Have they got that in their locker? 1008 00:49:18,827 --> 00:49:21,147 Speaker 3: Are they able to make improvements there? 1009 00:49:22,707 --> 00:49:24,587 Speaker 18: Yeah? I think I think definitely they all are. 1010 00:49:24,827 --> 00:49:27,947 Speaker 32: Like I think you'll find a lot of the time 1011 00:49:28,627 --> 00:49:31,507 Speaker 32: these days in the game, it's it's not necessarily a 1012 00:49:31,587 --> 00:49:33,827 Speaker 32: wingers at times either that are under those high balls 1013 00:49:33,907 --> 00:49:36,947 Speaker 32: with tens and fifteens in the backfield. So it's probably 1014 00:49:36,987 --> 00:49:39,787 Speaker 32: more than more than the back three. It's it's specifically 1015 00:49:39,867 --> 00:49:42,107 Speaker 32: tens and fifteen's a lot of the time when the Argentinians. 1016 00:49:42,267 --> 00:49:45,467 Speaker 32: Argentinians were kicking to us tonight. So everybody here that 1017 00:49:45,507 --> 00:49:47,587 Speaker 32: they have and we have to. You have to if 1018 00:49:47,587 --> 00:49:48,827 Speaker 32: you want to be in the backfield, then we have 1019 00:49:48,907 --> 00:49:50,667 Speaker 32: to be able to win those collisions, as simple as that. 1020 00:49:51,907 --> 00:49:54,067 Speaker 3: How concerning is it that you've been handed five yellow 1021 00:49:54,187 --> 00:49:55,187 Speaker 3: cards and two games? 1022 00:49:56,747 --> 00:50:01,867 Speaker 32: Yeah, hugely, Like it's a it is how discipline needs 1023 00:50:01,907 --> 00:50:04,787 Speaker 32: to be better when we're under pressure, and you know 1024 00:50:04,827 --> 00:50:06,307 Speaker 32: a lot of the other things I've talked around Lee 1025 00:50:06,467 --> 00:50:09,627 Speaker 32: so that as I said tonight and Nick Barry's rewards, 1026 00:50:09,707 --> 00:50:12,067 Speaker 32: the team with the ball, and because of all those 1027 00:50:12,107 --> 00:50:15,827 Speaker 32: other things that we've just talked around around our inaccuracies, 1028 00:50:15,867 --> 00:50:17,347 Speaker 32: it means we spent a lot of time with doubt 1029 00:50:17,387 --> 00:50:20,307 Speaker 32: it and that's what happens in the game these days, 1030 00:50:20,787 --> 00:50:23,027 Speaker 32: so that has to You're not going to win. We're 1031 00:50:23,067 --> 00:50:25,307 Speaker 32: not going to win two games against good opposition with 1032 00:50:25,667 --> 00:50:29,147 Speaker 32: two yellow cards and as you say, five over over 1033 00:50:29,227 --> 00:50:29,627 Speaker 32: the season. 1034 00:50:30,627 --> 00:50:32,787 Speaker 3: Is there a general understanding of the deliberate knock on 1035 00:50:32,907 --> 00:50:34,667 Speaker 3: rule among the players? Do they know what they can 1036 00:50:34,747 --> 00:50:37,427 Speaker 3: and can't do? Yeah, they do. 1037 00:50:37,747 --> 00:50:40,867 Speaker 32: They do in uh, you know, instinctive stuff they need 1038 00:50:40,907 --> 00:50:42,387 Speaker 32: to We need to be better at it. We need 1039 00:50:42,467 --> 00:50:45,107 Speaker 32: to make sure that you know, guys get if they 1040 00:50:45,187 --> 00:50:46,867 Speaker 32: do it in training, they get sent off the field 1041 00:50:46,907 --> 00:50:49,067 Speaker 32: with a little for yellow card for us at the moment. 1042 00:50:49,187 --> 00:50:51,547 Speaker 32: So you know, that's been happening for a few weeks. 1043 00:50:51,627 --> 00:50:54,307 Speaker 32: So now got to be better there too. 1044 00:50:54,387 --> 00:50:58,707 Speaker 3: Pinty and an attack Jason, what what what's your assessment 1045 00:50:58,787 --> 00:51:01,507 Speaker 3: of the way you're playing with ball in hand from 1046 00:51:01,667 --> 00:51:03,187 Speaker 3: from nine out at the moment? 1047 00:51:04,907 --> 00:51:05,067 Speaker 18: Ah? 1048 00:51:05,187 --> 00:51:08,027 Speaker 32: Yeah, Look, the there's a lot of execution stuff tonight 1049 00:51:08,107 --> 00:51:12,467 Speaker 32: where you know, we wanted to spread the Argentinians and play. 1050 00:51:12,347 --> 00:51:14,867 Speaker 18: With a bit of WIT's somewhere. 1051 00:51:14,907 --> 00:51:18,107 Speaker 32: Execution around our line out, delivery and around our skill sets. 1052 00:51:18,427 --> 00:51:20,947 Speaker 32: Didn't let us do that and so it became a battle. 1053 00:51:21,067 --> 00:51:22,547 Speaker 32: We didn't get to play the style of footage that 1054 00:51:22,547 --> 00:51:26,067 Speaker 32: we wanted to. So, yep, we've got to now some 1055 00:51:26,147 --> 00:51:28,627 Speaker 32: skill sets to be able to allow us to use 1056 00:51:28,667 --> 00:51:30,507 Speaker 32: the whole field, and that's it's got to be a 1057 00:51:30,587 --> 00:51:31,867 Speaker 32: massive part of how we go forward. 1058 00:51:32,587 --> 00:51:34,947 Speaker 3: Does it feel disjointed to you? I mean, you're the 1059 00:51:34,947 --> 00:51:36,587 Speaker 3: attack coach. Does it feel disjointed? 1060 00:51:37,827 --> 00:51:41,307 Speaker 32: They look disjointed tonight, Piney.

You're all in on 1122 00:54:29,067 --> 00:54:32,747 Speaker 3: that strategy. On what strategy is that the one that 1123 00:54:32,827 --> 00:54:35,267 Speaker 3: you just talked about about spreading it wide, wanting to 1124 00:54:35,307 --> 00:54:36,867 Speaker 3: play an expansive game, that sort of thing. 1125 00:54:36,947 --> 00:54:39,147 Speaker 18: Yes, yes, well we want to play. We want to 1126 00:54:39,147 --> 00:54:40,107 Speaker 18: have a good balance in our game. 1127 00:54:40,187 --> 00:54:42,187 Speaker 32: You know, we need to be able to we're anybody 1128 00:54:42,227 --> 00:54:45,387 Speaker 32: to use the whip, and obviously everybody knows if you 1129 00:54:45,467 --> 00:54:46,987 Speaker 32: use the whip, that opens up the field a little 1130 00:54:46,987 --> 00:54:48,907 Speaker 32: bit through the middle. So at the moment we're not 1131 00:54:48,987 --> 00:54:52,547 Speaker 32: getting we're not getting the whips in our game. And yeah, 1132 00:54:52,587 --> 00:54:53,507 Speaker 32: we need to be able to do that. 1133 00:54:54,307 --> 00:54:56,587 Speaker 3: I appreciate your time. Jace, Safe troubles back. We'll see 1134 00:54:56,587 --> 00:54:57,027 Speaker 3: you back here. 1135 00:54:58,227 --> 00:54:59,227 Speaker 18: Thanks mate. 1136 00:55:01,347 --> 00:55:03,947 Speaker 3: Assistant coach of the All Blacks were one off, joining 1137 00:55:04,027 --> 00:55:06,307 Speaker 3: us out of Buenos Aires not long after the Fall 1138 00:55:06,467 --> 00:55:09,427 Speaker 3: Time Whistle twelve eighteen. It is Your thoughts are welcome, 1139 00:55:09,747 --> 00:55:12,187 Speaker 3: and we had a lot of calls before midday opening 1140 00:55:12,227 --> 00:55:16,467 Speaker 3: the lines again on eight hundred and eighty eighty. Before 1141 00:55:16,507 --> 00:55:18,747 Speaker 3: we take your calls, we can get you back. Actually 1142 00:55:18,787 --> 00:55:22,027 Speaker 3: to Buina series where a fairly familiar voice to a 1143 00:55:22,187 --> 00:55:25,507 Speaker 3: z B and goldsportlesseners Paul Allison how Toneden based commentator 1144 00:55:25,547 --> 00:55:30,507 Speaker 3: has been watching the game live. Paul, a fairly deflated 1145 00:55:30,587 --> 00:55:32,907 Speaker 3: set of All Black supporters leaving the ground after the 1146 00:55:32,947 --> 00:55:33,587 Speaker 3: final whistle. 1147 00:55:35,867 --> 00:55:37,787 Speaker 33: I think you've got to admit, Finey, that there was 1148 00:55:37,867 --> 00:55:39,747 Speaker 33: really only one team in this game tonight, and it 1149 00:55:39,827 --> 00:55:43,027 Speaker 33: was the Argentinians. They started well, I think you remember 1150 00:55:43,067 --> 00:55:46,427 Speaker 33: an old Otago coach called Charlie Saxton. He talked about 1151 00:55:46,427 --> 00:55:48,587 Speaker 33: the three p's. Well, we saw them in action tonight. 1152 00:55:48,667 --> 00:55:52,627 Speaker 33: One was power with the Argentinian forwards, one was paced 1153 00:55:52,627 --> 00:55:55,347 Speaker 33: with the Argentinian backs, and the third p was precisioned 1154 00:55:55,387 --> 00:55:57,787 Speaker 33: because they just put that ball into the air and 1155 00:55:57,907 --> 00:56:00,947 Speaker 33: they are absolutely pin point. We see the tango over here. 1156 00:56:00,987 --> 00:56:02,787 Speaker 33: It takes two to tango. There's only one of them 1157 00:56:02,947 --> 00:56:04,627 Speaker 33: dancing tonight, and it was the Argentinians. 1158 00:56:05,427 --> 00:56:08,547 Speaker 3: What about the aerial Paul, was it obvious from where 1159 00:56:08,547 --> 00:56:11,387 Speaker 3: you were sitting that the All Blacks were not winning 1160 00:56:11,427 --> 00:56:12,267 Speaker 3: the aerial battle? 1161 00:56:13,947 --> 00:56:14,107 Speaker 18: Yeah? 1162 00:56:14,107 --> 00:56:15,707 Speaker 2: Absolutely, they weren't in the hunt. 1163 00:56:15,827 --> 00:56:18,787 Speaker 33: The accuracy of the up and unders that the Argentinians 1164 00:56:18,787 --> 00:56:22,347 Speaker 33: put in were absolutely spot on, and they reclaimed most 1165 00:56:22,387 --> 00:56:24,827 Speaker 33: of that aerial ball. And this is a part of 1166 00:56:24,867 --> 00:56:26,387 Speaker 33: the game which I think the All Blacks have always 1167 00:56:26,387 --> 00:56:29,107 Speaker 33: struggled with they've actually kicked too deep, not just tonight 1168 00:56:29,507 --> 00:56:32,067 Speaker 33: but in previous matches as well, and haven't really been 1169 00:56:32,107 --> 00:56:34,747 Speaker 33: in a position to contest that aerial ball. But the 1170 00:56:34,867 --> 00:56:37,067 Speaker 33: Argentinian started with so much power in the forward pack, 1171 00:56:37,147 --> 00:56:39,827 Speaker 33: with the one on off runners getting over the advantage line, 1172 00:56:39,867 --> 00:56:42,267 Speaker 33: recycling the ball, and they just got the momentum going. 1173 00:56:42,307 --> 00:56:44,027 Speaker 33: They looked a lot more hungry than the All Blacks, 1174 00:56:44,027 --> 00:56:45,667 Speaker 33: and the All Blacks were pretty much on the back 1175 00:56:45,667 --> 00:56:47,667 Speaker 33: foot from the kickoff. And although they got back to 1176 00:56:47,747 --> 00:56:49,587 Speaker 33: thirteen all at half time, and you can talk about 1177 00:56:49,587 --> 00:56:52,347 Speaker 33: the three yellow cards, the fact that they lost their 1178 00:56:52,947 --> 00:56:55,067 Speaker 33: their star number tier and early in the match, and okay, 1179 00:56:55,147 --> 00:56:58,067 Speaker 33: the All Blacks lost Radam early as well, but you 1180 00:56:58,147 --> 00:57:01,147 Speaker 33: start to look at it, and this Argentinian side tonight 1181 00:57:01,387 --> 00:57:03,467 Speaker 33: outplayed the All Blacks in just about every aspect in 1182 00:57:03,547 --> 00:57:04,027 Speaker 33: my opinion. 1183 00:57:04,827 --> 00:57:07,987 Speaker 3: How was the atmosphere there as the home fans realized 1184 00:57:08,027 --> 00:57:09,787 Speaker 3: that history was about to be made. 1185 00:57:11,787 --> 00:57:12,507 Speaker 2: Well, a few of us have. 1186 00:57:12,507 --> 00:57:14,267 Speaker 33: Been a few rugby grounds around the world, and this 1187 00:57:14,427 --> 00:57:16,907 Speaker 33: is one of the special occasions. I mean, when the 1188 00:57:17,027 --> 00:57:20,907 Speaker 33: Argentinians got the ball early, everyone that was supporting the Argentinians, 1189 00:57:21,067 --> 00:57:23,467 Speaker 33: which would have been forty nine thousand out of the 1190 00:57:23,507 --> 00:57:26,707 Speaker 33: forty nine thousand, five hundred capacity. Start jumping it up 1191 00:57:26,747 --> 00:57:28,107 Speaker 33: and down on the ground, you think it's a little 1192 00:57:28,107 --> 00:57:31,467 Speaker 33: mini earthquake going on around you. They're very passionate supporters. 1193 00:57:31,627 --> 00:57:34,507 Speaker 33: I'm not sure how knowledgeable they are about rugby, but 1194 00:57:34,627 --> 00:57:36,867 Speaker 33: in terms of the passion, you can just see that 1195 00:57:37,027 --> 00:57:39,067 Speaker 33: coming out that there was a lot of noise around 1196 00:57:39,107 --> 00:57:42,707 Speaker 33: the ground and as the Argentinians got on top, they 1197 00:57:42,827 --> 00:57:46,387 Speaker 33: just the noise continued to continue on and even leaving 1198 00:57:46,427 --> 00:57:48,947 Speaker 33: the ground tonight, they've got a fan zone outside the 1199 00:57:49,107 --> 00:57:51,707 Speaker 33: playing the beetles of all things out there, and the 1200 00:57:51,827 --> 00:57:55,067 Speaker 33: fans are It really is quite quite amazing, the very 1201 00:57:55,187 --> 00:57:58,467 Speaker 33: joyous occasion for them. Obviously, they've set history, having never 1202 00:57:58,547 --> 00:58:00,867 Speaker 33: beaten the All Blacks on home soil before, and they've 1203 00:58:00,867 --> 00:58:02,547 Speaker 33: done it tonight, and they've done it in fine style. 1204 00:58:03,307 --> 00:58:05,387 Speaker 3: Just before you go and get a big stake and 1205 00:58:05,467 --> 00:58:07,947 Speaker 3: something to wash it down with, Paul, should we be worried? 1206 00:58:08,307 --> 00:58:10,467 Speaker 3: Should we be worried about the All Blacks with South 1207 00:58:10,507 --> 00:58:11,587 Speaker 3: Africa inbound? 1208 00:58:13,987 --> 00:58:15,667 Speaker 33: Well, the All Blacks have looked clunky to me, I 1209 00:58:15,747 --> 00:58:19,787 Speaker 33: predicted before I came over here to Argentina, that I 1210 00:58:19,787 --> 00:58:21,507 Speaker 33: thought it might be a one all Test series and 1211 00:58:21,667 --> 00:58:23,187 Speaker 33: the All Blacks won last week, and I thought that 1212 00:58:23,387 --> 00:58:24,747 Speaker 33: might be the one that tripped them up, and I 1213 00:58:24,787 --> 00:58:26,987 Speaker 33: thought that they would be better tonight. Also thought the 1214 00:58:27,147 --> 00:58:29,627 Speaker 33: Argies would be as well. But I'm the only one 1215 00:58:29,707 --> 00:58:31,907 Speaker 33: smiling in the bus going back amongst thirty five people 1216 00:58:31,907 --> 00:58:34,467 Speaker 33: because I won the sweepstak. I had Argentina by five piney, 1217 00:58:34,787 --> 00:58:36,547 Speaker 33: so I'm not doing too bad. 1218 00:58:37,467 --> 00:58:40,387 Speaker 3: Oh, well, you go and Luxury eight and that Paul, 1219 00:58:40,507 --> 00:58:42,347 Speaker 3: Great to chat to your mate.

Yes, 1227 00:59:08,027 --> 00:59:10,587 Speaker 10: he's playing. He's playing vintage football on the wing for 1228 00:59:10,707 --> 00:59:11,187 Speaker 10: the Warriors. 1229 00:59:11,867 --> 00:59:15,387 Speaker 3: You're out, Really, you're an out early No, I just. 1230 00:59:15,827 --> 00:59:17,707 Speaker 10: I just wanted to call him out because he's just playing. 1231 00:59:17,747 --> 00:59:19,467 Speaker 10: He's probably one of the best in the NRL at 1232 00:59:19,507 --> 00:59:22,467 Speaker 10: the moment. He's just great sportsman there, guys. Yeah, it's 1233 00:59:22,507 --> 00:59:25,787 Speaker 10: incredible being put out in the wing and just absolutely 1234 00:59:25,907 --> 00:59:27,147 Speaker 10: thriving out there at the moment. 1235 00:59:27,627 --> 00:59:29,707 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1236 00:59:30,947 --> 00:59:32,907 Speaker 10: For me, I'm not a Rico hater. I thought he 1237 00:59:33,067 --> 00:59:35,787 Speaker 10: was really good in midfield and to me, it was 1238 00:59:35,827 --> 00:59:39,027 Speaker 10: a better team with him and Jordi here. And I 1239 00:59:39,147 --> 00:59:42,027 Speaker 10: know I'm a Hurricane supporter, but I think he looked better. 1240 00:59:42,107 --> 00:59:45,067 Speaker 10: I think there's better options on the wing for me, 1241 00:59:45,147 --> 00:59:47,987 Speaker 10: and that has been great for a couple of years, 1242 00:59:48,907 --> 00:59:49,507 Speaker 10: very solid. 1243 00:59:50,587 --> 00:59:51,787 Speaker 3: Who was who was that? 1244 00:59:51,867 --> 00:59:52,107 Speaker 8: Sorry? 1245 00:59:52,147 --> 00:59:52,747 Speaker 3: Mark, who was that? 1246 00:59:52,867 --> 00:59:53,267 Speaker 24: You just said? 1247 00:59:54,267 --> 00:59:54,667 Speaker 10: Narawa? 1248 00:59:55,227 --> 00:59:56,667 Speaker 3: Oh none of us? Sorry? Are you just cut out? 1249 00:59:56,747 --> 00:59:56,867 Speaker 16: Yep? 1250 00:59:56,907 --> 00:59:57,707 Speaker 3: No, no, what, No, you're right. 1251 00:59:59,267 --> 01:00:00,907 Speaker 10: Yeah, I think he's good. I mean, I wouldn't take 1252 01:00:00,947 --> 01:00:03,867 Speaker 10: CV res. I think he's been hasn't really done too 1253 01:00:03,987 --> 01:00:07,987 Speaker 10: much wrong really, I mean, I guess kateb Clark was 1254 01:00:08,027 --> 01:00:10,107 Speaker 10: one of the few players who could actually catch the 1255 01:00:10,187 --> 01:00:12,187 Speaker 10: ball when it was kicked into the ear, which is 1256 01:00:12,387 --> 01:00:15,547 Speaker 10: quite surprising. I mean to me, you know, when they 1257 01:00:15,627 --> 01:00:18,067 Speaker 10: brought in Ryan when they had problems with the Fords, 1258 01:00:18,547 --> 01:00:23,067 Speaker 10: it was almost transformational. Maybe they need to look outside 1259 01:00:23,467 --> 01:00:26,547 Speaker 10: the coaching staff and bringing a specialist I don't know 1260 01:00:26,707 --> 01:00:29,587 Speaker 10: from the AFL to be able to get I mean, 1261 01:00:29,827 --> 01:00:31,827 Speaker 10: all you need to get is a player to jump 1262 01:00:31,867 --> 01:00:33,427 Speaker 10: and catch the ball. I mean, you see it in 1263 01:00:33,547 --> 01:00:36,947 Speaker 10: rugby league was I don't know, coach Daniel Tupo. They're 1264 01:00:36,987 --> 01:00:39,827 Speaker 10: fantastic in the air and they make a real difference. 1265 01:00:39,947 --> 01:00:44,107 Speaker 10: I mean, I just don't understand the simplicity of it. 1266 01:00:44,467 --> 01:00:47,067 Speaker 10: I mean, to me, why kick the ball in the 1267 01:00:47,187 --> 01:00:50,747 Speaker 10: year if you haven't got a game plan to catch 1268 01:00:50,827 --> 01:00:53,187 Speaker 10: it in game position. I mean, it's so much harder 1269 01:00:54,427 --> 01:00:56,387 Speaker 10: like to get it to win a ball at a 1270 01:00:56,547 --> 01:00:59,547 Speaker 10: ruck in rugby and modern rugby than it is to 1271 01:00:59,667 --> 01:01:02,827 Speaker 10: win a ball in the year, So you'd be putting 1272 01:01:02,987 --> 01:01:05,707 Speaker 10: your effort into this all the time. And I just 1273 01:01:05,867 --> 01:01:08,547 Speaker 10: don't It just blows my mind every week. And I 1274 01:01:08,627 --> 01:01:12,027 Speaker 10: think I've mentioned it for the the foul on like 1275 01:01:12,147 --> 01:01:14,187 Speaker 10: a lot of a lot of players, you know, a 1276 01:01:14,227 --> 01:01:16,827 Speaker 10: lot of people have been containing but it's just it's 1277 01:01:16,947 --> 01:01:20,467 Speaker 10: just a complete disaster zone for them. And and you 1278 01:01:20,547 --> 01:01:24,667 Speaker 10: know Russia has targeted this Eden Park test to be 1279 01:01:24,947 --> 01:01:27,667 Speaker 10: to break the hoodoo of this, and they're going to 1280 01:01:27,707 --> 01:01:30,547 Speaker 10: bring everything they've got, including the aerial game. And I 1281 01:01:30,747 --> 01:01:33,347 Speaker 10: just don't think we're gonna I don't think we're going 1282 01:01:33,427 --> 01:01:36,067 Speaker 10: to survive it, let alone. The Australians are playing well. 1283 01:01:36,107 --> 01:01:40,267 Speaker 10: I thought, I just want to congratulate that the agent 1284 01:01:40,347 --> 01:01:42,667 Speaker 10: in years. I thought they outplayed the or Blacks and 1285 01:01:42,707 --> 01:01:43,307 Speaker 10: deserved to win. 1286 01:01:44,827 --> 01:01:48,267 Speaker 3: Good summary, Mark, thanks mate. Yeah, look the kicking. Yeah, 1287 01:01:48,267 --> 01:01:50,907 Speaker 3: as you say, and it's and you're right to continue 1288 01:01:50,947 --> 01:01:53,907 Speaker 3: to bring it up because the rules as they stand now, 1289 01:01:54,267 --> 01:01:57,067 Speaker 3: as Jason Holland said, when you when you put up 1290 01:01:57,107 --> 01:02:03,267 Speaker 3: a kick, you can challenge the receiver because you're not 1291 01:02:03,307 --> 01:02:05,667 Speaker 3: allowed to run into ference anymore. You're not allowed to 1292 01:02:05,747 --> 01:02:09,827 Speaker 3: sort of gather around that player and help them out 1293 01:02:10,587 --> 01:02:15,587 Speaker 3: block any runners. It is an actual contest. It's one 1294 01:02:16,027 --> 01:02:19,267 Speaker 3: major work on for this team ahead of South Africa. 1295 01:02:19,387 --> 01:02:22,867 Speaker 3: And look they're aware of it. I didn't think Jason 1296 01:02:22,907 --> 01:02:26,587 Speaker 3: Holland ducked any any you know, issues there. He said, 1297 01:02:26,627 --> 01:02:28,547 Speaker 3: we're not. There's nothing out there that we're happy with. 1298 01:02:29,787 --> 01:02:34,907 Speaker 3: We were disjointed on attack, we were beaten in the air. 1299 01:02:37,787 --> 01:02:40,587 Speaker 3: I eight hundred and eighty ten eighty. Your chance to react. 1300 01:02:41,307 --> 01:02:42,707 Speaker 3: We've got a spare line, I think for the first 1301 01:02:42,747 --> 01:02:45,147 Speaker 3: time since full time. So if you haven't been able 1302 01:02:45,147 --> 01:02:46,987 Speaker 3: to get through now's the time to give it a crack. 1303 01:02:47,027 --> 01:02:49,827 Speaker 3: I eight hundred and eighty ten eighty A couple of 1304 01:02:49,907 --> 01:02:51,787 Speaker 3: texts before we go back to the lines. Australia's backs 1305 01:02:51,787 --> 01:02:55,467 Speaker 3: have speed on their wings, creative midfield, and they diffuse 1306 01:02:55,467 --> 01:02:57,067 Speaker 3: the high ball. They beat the All Black's hands down 1307 01:02:57,067 --> 01:03:00,987 Speaker 3: at the moment. Look, I think Australia after this morning's 1308 01:03:01,027 --> 01:03:03,467 Speaker 3: performance in Cape Town, where they gave a pretty good 1309 01:03:03,467 --> 01:03:06,987 Speaker 3: account of themselves before South Africa managed to win that game, 1310 01:03:08,827 --> 01:03:10,827 Speaker 3: I think Australia will be coming back and they've got 1311 01:03:10,907 --> 01:03:13,547 Speaker 3: Argentina coming their way. Of course, a couple of test 1312 01:03:13,627 --> 01:03:17,467 Speaker 3: matches in Australia before they play US home and away. 1313 01:03:18,067 --> 01:03:19,747 Speaker 3: I think they'll feel like they're on a pretty good 1314 01:03:19,907 --> 01:03:25,987 Speaker 3: trajectory at the moment. Last week obviously was tremendous beating 1315 01:03:26,627 --> 01:03:28,547 Speaker 3: the spring Box at Alice Park for the first time, 1316 01:03:28,627 --> 01:03:32,587 Speaker 3: and Goodness only knows how long this morning they I think, 1317 01:03:32,827 --> 01:03:34,747 Speaker 3: you know, I don't think they took too many steps back. 1318 01:03:35,387 --> 01:03:37,347 Speaker 3: They had a couple of moments where perhaps they could 1319 01:03:37,347 --> 01:03:41,227 Speaker 3: have been better and would maybe have even won the 1320 01:03:41,267 --> 01:03:45,387 Speaker 3: game if they were. But yes, Australia, they'll said, they'll 1321 01:03:45,427 --> 01:03:48,507 Speaker 3: be watching as well. The world is watching Anstrom. What 1322 01:03:48,587 --> 01:03:51,067 Speaker 3: he said just keeps on coming back to me that 1323 01:03:51,227 --> 01:03:53,907 Speaker 3: people will watch the way the All Blacks are struggling 1324 01:03:53,987 --> 01:03:57,067 Speaker 3: under the high wall and they will construct a strategy 1325 01:03:57,107 --> 01:04:00,267 Speaker 3: around it. The All Blacks, for their part, just have 1326 01:04:00,427 --> 01:04:03,067 Speaker 3: to get better. They have to get better at it. 1327 01:04:05,427 --> 01:04:08,067 Speaker 3: One hundred eighty two Mike, Hello mate. 1328 01:04:08,747 --> 01:04:10,827 Speaker 10: Yeah, gay mate, Jason, how are you good? 1329 01:04:10,867 --> 01:04:11,067 Speaker 3: Thank you? 1330 01:04:11,147 --> 01:04:11,307 Speaker 11: Mom? 1331 01:04:12,747 --> 01:04:18,227 Speaker 23: I heard Jason Ryan go on about the Orbles wanted 1332 01:04:18,267 --> 01:04:20,227 Speaker 23: to play an expensive game, and all I want to 1333 01:04:20,227 --> 01:04:24,187 Speaker 23: comment on that is the Orbock's played dumb, dumber and 1334 01:04:24,347 --> 01:04:28,907 Speaker 23: dumbest rugby. How the hell do you play expensive rugby 1335 01:04:28,907 --> 01:04:31,347 Speaker 23: when the half back box kicks, when you're down on 1336 01:04:31,427 --> 01:04:33,387 Speaker 23: the points, You've got no position. 1337 01:04:33,707 --> 01:04:35,187 Speaker 34: I mean you look at the stats. 1338 01:04:35,227 --> 01:04:38,227 Speaker 23: When was the last test the All Blacks one where 1339 01:04:38,227 --> 01:04:39,707 Speaker 23: they only had forty percent. 1340 01:04:39,467 --> 01:04:39,787 Speaker 3: Of the ball. 1341 01:04:39,827 --> 01:04:42,307 Speaker 23: They're never gonna win, never in a million years. In 1342 01:04:42,427 --> 01:04:44,987 Speaker 23: the comments that South Africa is coming and so as Australia, 1343 01:04:45,267 --> 01:04:47,627 Speaker 23: I reckon the All Blacks have got their backs against 1344 01:04:47,667 --> 01:04:48,507 Speaker 23: the wall at Eden Park. 1345 01:04:50,067 --> 01:04:52,467 Speaker 3: Well, let's hope that the reaction to that, Mike is 1346 01:04:52,867 --> 01:04:55,067 Speaker 3: as a positive one. You know, they often say there's 1347 01:04:55,427 --> 01:04:57,987 Speaker 3: nothing like a wounded spring. Bark or a wounded wallaby 1348 01:04:58,107 --> 01:05:00,907 Speaker 3: or probably a wounded poma. This is a wounded All 1349 01:05:00,947 --> 01:05:03,947 Speaker 3: Blacks now, so I'm expecting a reaction. I think we 1350 01:05:04,067 --> 01:05:05,867 Speaker 3: all should expect a reaction. 1351 01:05:07,507 --> 01:05:09,987 Speaker 23: Yeah, I think one hundred percent. But the other thing 1352 01:05:10,227 --> 01:05:11,947 Speaker 23: I said to my partner when we were watching the 1353 01:05:12,027 --> 01:05:15,067 Speaker 23: postgame show Things, when Cody Taylor was on the stand, 1354 01:05:15,427 --> 01:05:17,987 Speaker 23: he looked straight at the reporter Scott Robinson. His eyes 1355 01:05:17,987 --> 01:05:21,947 Speaker 23: are all over the show, and it's almost like they 1356 01:05:22,027 --> 01:05:24,227 Speaker 23: don't have answers to the problems. And if they've worked 1357 01:05:24,267 --> 01:05:26,067 Speaker 23: on this all week, and they and they work on 1358 01:05:26,147 --> 01:05:28,307 Speaker 23: a problem all week and they produce a performance like that, 1359 01:05:28,507 --> 01:05:29,667 Speaker 23: a man that's got your worries. 1360 01:05:31,307 --> 01:05:33,947 Speaker 3: Thanks Mike, I appreciate your call. Drive Save twelve twenty 1361 01:05:33,987 --> 01:05:38,187 Speaker 3: eight lines continue to be open, although they fill up 1362 01:05:38,187 --> 01:05:40,267 Speaker 3: as quickly as they open, So give it a crack. 1363 01:05:40,347 --> 01:05:42,787 Speaker 3: Aj Hello, Yeah, Getty. 1364 01:05:42,587 --> 01:05:44,467 Speaker 7: Fine, I'm going to come off the big thing. And 1365 01:05:44,507 --> 01:05:48,227 Speaker 7: I think did they make it good? I don't think 1366 01:05:48,387 --> 01:05:51,867 Speaker 7: all Black backplay has been good under this coachy, Raine, mate. 1367 01:05:51,907 --> 01:05:54,627 Speaker 7: I think we've one backwards Idall Foster in the last 1368 01:05:54,667 --> 01:05:56,587 Speaker 7: three years for Joe Smith, and that might be something 1369 01:05:56,627 --> 01:05:59,067 Speaker 7: as well that we had a back coach that knew 1370 01:05:59,067 --> 01:06:00,387 Speaker 7: what he was doing. Mate, I don't think we've got 1371 01:06:00,427 --> 01:06:02,947 Speaker 7: back coaches there at the moment they were doing. I'd 1372 01:06:02,987 --> 01:06:06,307 Speaker 7: have either Reuben Love or probably better at full back, 1373 01:06:06,667 --> 01:06:09,187 Speaker 7: and I had Little Drawer on the wing, and I'd 1374 01:06:09,227 --> 01:06:10,707 Speaker 7: had Leroy Chounter on the other wing. 1375 01:06:10,827 --> 01:06:11,027 Speaker 18: Mate. 1376 01:06:11,227 --> 01:06:13,227 Speaker 7: You know you look at me, mum will cup back 1377 01:06:13,267 --> 01:06:15,267 Speaker 7: and through the other eleven. The high ball was the 1378 01:06:16,067 --> 01:06:17,907 Speaker 7: previous two years, the kicking to the high ball, and 1379 01:06:17,987 --> 01:06:20,187 Speaker 7: we're what you gave hear me doing. They picked the 1380 01:06:20,227 --> 01:06:22,387 Speaker 7: guy up and named Richter CARHOI who was the best 1381 01:06:22,427 --> 01:06:25,387 Speaker 7: on the high ball, Say Corey, Corey Dane another winger, 1382 01:06:25,547 --> 01:06:27,307 Speaker 7: I fall back. This is what we need to do, mate. 1383 01:06:27,347 --> 01:06:29,427 Speaker 7: I'm not thinking propably this coaching group at the moment. 1384 01:06:29,467 --> 01:06:30,387 Speaker 7: I'm pussed top about it. 1385 01:06:34,547 --> 01:06:36,907 Speaker 3: Hey, Jake, and I know I'm gonna keep I'm gonna 1386 01:06:36,947 --> 01:06:38,027 Speaker 3: keep you on it because I want to hear more. 1387 01:06:38,187 --> 01:06:40,547 Speaker 3: But I think you know the Ruben Loved one's interesting, 1388 01:06:40,627 --> 01:06:42,707 Speaker 3: not the biggest guy, but a fullback, very brave and 1389 01:06:42,747 --> 01:06:43,667 Speaker 3: good under the high ball. 1390 01:06:44,067 --> 01:06:47,627 Speaker 21: So if he looking to yeah, he's probably. 1391 01:06:47,427 --> 01:06:50,027 Speaker 7: The best player. And that all the tea that takes 1392 01:06:50,027 --> 01:06:51,867 Speaker 7: the high ball and nine time out of ten he 1393 01:06:51,987 --> 01:06:54,787 Speaker 7: catches it, you know. And also I don't think we 1394 01:06:54,907 --> 01:06:56,627 Speaker 7: can go. I love vating Barrett and I thought he 1395 01:06:56,707 --> 01:06:59,027 Speaker 7: was outstanding in the first half this morning. But we 1396 01:06:59,147 --> 01:07:01,387 Speaker 7: can't have a goal kick out. There's only kicking sixty 1397 01:07:01,667 --> 01:07:04,907 Speaker 7: percent of the all back Test sectors that just look 1398 01:07:04,947 --> 01:07:07,147 Speaker 7: at pull out this morning, mate, Dodgies would have won 1399 01:07:07,227 --> 01:07:08,907 Speaker 7: that match that they had had a goal and nothing 1400 01:07:09,067 --> 01:07:11,307 Speaker 7: game to Connor, I thought they were really unlucky to 1401 01:07:11,347 --> 01:07:13,027 Speaker 7: lose that game this morning. But at the moment, as 1402 01:07:13,027 --> 01:07:15,667 Speaker 7: I sit to you, producer Andy McDonald's, at the moment, 1403 01:07:15,747 --> 01:07:17,387 Speaker 7: I don't think the all back with Victor Wallabies at 1404 01:07:17,427 --> 01:07:20,787 Speaker 7: the moment, but we're we're looking. I was so pumped 1405 01:07:20,827 --> 01:07:22,347 Speaker 7: up there coming to Auckland and went to the watch 1406 01:07:22,347 --> 01:07:24,427 Speaker 7: the all back. But at the moment they need they 1407 01:07:24,467 --> 01:07:27,067 Speaker 7: need to have a card and harder themselves. And I 1408 01:07:27,227 --> 01:07:29,587 Speaker 7: had to say that it was probably with kissed back 1409 01:07:29,667 --> 01:07:32,427 Speaker 7: of Saint Scott Barrett played this morning. Yeah, he wants 1410 01:07:32,467 --> 01:07:34,427 Speaker 7: to get some gruel and tends. Man, he dropped on ball. 1411 01:07:34,467 --> 01:07:34,747 Speaker 21: That's more. 1412 01:07:34,747 --> 01:07:37,547 Speaker 7: It's terrible, you know, the middal assistant all day to 1413 01:07:37,747 --> 01:07:39,747 Speaker 7: go by feeling in my opinion. 1414 01:07:39,947 --> 01:07:43,147 Speaker 3: Yep, AJ don't don't let this stop you from coming 1415 01:07:43,187 --> 01:07:44,907 Speaker 3: to Auckland and Wellington, because I'm keen to meet you 1416 01:07:45,307 --> 01:07:48,987 Speaker 3: at our pregame shows.

Thanks for holding Garris, 1429 01:08:26,667 --> 01:08:27,627 Speaker 3: Good afternoon. 1430 01:08:28,467 --> 01:08:30,907 Speaker 15: Good afternoon, Pining. I appreciate you show. It's always a 1431 01:08:30,907 --> 01:08:34,627 Speaker 15: good one. I guess I agree with everyone's summation. There's 1432 01:08:35,267 --> 01:08:37,467 Speaker 15: a whole lot of work on. But I guess what 1433 01:08:37,547 --> 01:08:40,947 Speaker 15: I was disappointed with was just our inability to react 1434 01:08:40,987 --> 01:08:43,667 Speaker 15: to what was going wrong. So obviously the aerial game 1435 01:08:43,787 --> 01:08:45,987 Speaker 15: was an issue, but then, like a couple of people 1436 01:08:46,027 --> 01:08:49,507 Speaker 15: have mentioned, we continued to box kick and we continued 1437 01:08:49,507 --> 01:08:52,027 Speaker 15: to put trips over and stuff. So if that's not 1438 01:08:52,187 --> 01:08:56,027 Speaker 15: going right, why wouldn't you change tacks? And like I thought, 1439 01:08:56,067 --> 01:08:58,347 Speaker 15: I saw a stat leading into halftime that would run 1440 01:08:58,387 --> 01:09:00,867 Speaker 15: all our own line out ball. Why wouldn't you kick 1441 01:09:00,987 --> 01:09:05,267 Speaker 15: for the corner and try and get a driving all going? 1442 01:09:05,347 --> 01:09:08,627 Speaker 15: Like I thought, Fabian Holland and Cody Taylor played a 1443 01:09:08,667 --> 01:09:10,867 Speaker 15: really good game and then when it really mattered, we 1444 01:09:10,947 --> 01:09:13,747 Speaker 15: pulled them off. And I just thought those two subs, 1445 01:09:13,867 --> 01:09:16,307 Speaker 15: we had a couple of false starts at the lineouts 1446 01:09:16,347 --> 01:09:18,627 Speaker 15: when we really needed it. I get that the crowd 1447 01:09:18,707 --> 01:09:21,827 Speaker 15: noise might have been an issue, but I just you know, 1448 01:09:21,907 --> 01:09:24,987 Speaker 15: I'm worried about our rugby intelligence more than the actual 1449 01:09:25,067 --> 01:09:27,187 Speaker 15: technical side of it, because I think that can be fixed. 1450 01:09:27,307 --> 01:09:29,907 Speaker 15: But I think there was no one out there who 1451 01:09:30,187 --> 01:09:33,267 Speaker 15: took the game by the hand. Did this needs to change? 1452 01:09:33,307 --> 01:09:35,547 Speaker 15: We're going to do this this, We're going to slow 1453 01:09:35,587 --> 01:09:37,507 Speaker 15: down for the next five to ten minutes, get back 1454 01:09:37,547 --> 01:09:39,747 Speaker 15: in the game. And yeah, I don't know what you 1455 01:09:39,827 --> 01:09:40,387 Speaker 15: think of that, but. 1456 01:09:40,627 --> 01:09:42,947 Speaker 3: No, I think you bang on the money. Gareth I 1457 01:09:42,987 --> 01:09:46,067 Speaker 3: think the ability to think in game on the field 1458 01:09:46,547 --> 01:09:50,187 Speaker 3: when all about you was pretty hectic and chaotic is 1459 01:09:50,427 --> 01:09:53,547 Speaker 3: an absolute skill that the leaders in this team should have. 1460 01:09:54,307 --> 01:09:56,307 Speaker 3: Bang on, mate, they should they should say, hey, this 1461 01:09:56,427 --> 01:09:58,227 Speaker 3: ain't working, so we're going to go to Plan B 1462 01:09:58,347 --> 01:09:58,707 Speaker 3: and here it. 1463 01:09:58,787 --> 01:10:02,547 Speaker 15: Is exactly and like, if we're not going to fix 1464 01:10:02,587 --> 01:10:04,227 Speaker 15: the aerial game in the next couple of weeks, which 1465 01:10:04,267 --> 01:10:06,667 Speaker 15: I don't think we can necessarily fix to be a 1466 01:10:06,787 --> 01:10:10,307 Speaker 15: team like South Africa or Australia. Granted I do have 1467 01:10:10,347 --> 01:10:12,787 Speaker 15: a cele Afrian wife, so it gets a bit heated 1468 01:10:12,867 --> 01:10:16,307 Speaker 15: in our household. But I think if we've got a 1469 01:10:16,427 --> 01:10:17,907 Speaker 15: skill that's not as good as them, why don't we 1470 01:10:17,947 --> 01:10:19,467 Speaker 15: go to something else? And I think I'll line out 1471 01:10:19,787 --> 01:10:22,907 Speaker 15: out of everything and our scrum are functioning reasonably well, 1472 01:10:23,547 --> 01:10:27,107 Speaker 15: So find something that we're doing well and use it 1473 01:10:27,147 --> 01:10:30,187 Speaker 15: as much as we possibly can, because I think at 1474 01:10:30,227 --> 01:10:33,147 Speaker 15: the moment, anything outside second five is just not working. 1475 01:10:33,987 --> 01:10:36,507 Speaker 3: Mate. If I never see another box kick again, I'll 1476 01:10:36,507 --> 01:10:38,667 Speaker 3: be happy. And you're right, I mean, if the aerial 1477 01:10:38,707 --> 01:10:40,827 Speaker 3: game isn't working, I mean, we can't stop the opposition 1478 01:10:40,987 --> 01:10:43,587 Speaker 3: from bombing us. That's their prerogative, that's what they have 1479 01:10:43,667 --> 01:10:45,227 Speaker 3: to do. We just have to be ready for it. 1480 01:10:45,307 --> 01:10:48,947 Speaker 3: But if we're not winning contestable ball from our own 1481 01:10:48,987 --> 01:10:51,187 Speaker 3: box cakes, then you're right by just stop doing it. 1482 01:10:52,707 --> 01:10:54,987 Speaker 15: I'd love to know how the percentage of I'd love 1483 01:10:55,027 --> 01:10:57,707 Speaker 15: to know what the percentage that we got those attacking 1484 01:10:57,787 --> 01:11:01,867 Speaker 15: box kicks back. But if it's not working, change the game. 1485 01:11:03,147 --> 01:11:05,707 Speaker 15: And I think unfortunately, I think Body Barrett had a 1486 01:11:05,707 --> 01:11:08,267 Speaker 15: bad night with the b which is a rarity and 1487 01:11:08,347 --> 01:11:10,027 Speaker 15: normally that would have kept us in the game. But 1488 01:11:10,587 --> 01:11:14,347 Speaker 15: I think that's just glossing over bigot issues that really 1489 01:11:14,427 --> 01:11:17,027 Speaker 15: need to be fixed. And I think we're going through 1490 01:11:17,027 --> 01:11:19,667 Speaker 15: a period where we don't have the luxury of depth 1491 01:11:19,747 --> 01:11:22,987 Speaker 15: where if someone's playing badly, we can just boot them 1492 01:11:22,987 --> 01:11:25,267 Speaker 15: because there's not a whole lot of people waiting in 1493 01:11:25,307 --> 01:11:26,907 Speaker 15: the wings. So we've got to come up with a plan. 1494 01:11:27,027 --> 01:11:30,507 Speaker 3: B Indeed, interesting few weeks coming up in your place 1495 01:11:30,587 --> 01:11:33,587 Speaker 3: mate with you, yourself and your wife. No doubt you'll 1496 01:11:33,667 --> 01:11:35,107 Speaker 3: negotiated safely enough. 1497 01:11:36,187 --> 01:11:38,387 Speaker 15: Yeah, I'm feeling a bit exhausted getting up this morning 1498 01:11:38,467 --> 01:11:39,867 Speaker 15: watching sasty game. 1499 01:11:40,027 --> 01:11:42,227 Speaker 7: But there was just way better quality rugby. 1500 01:11:42,347 --> 01:11:44,307 Speaker 15: Like I was watching that game and I was on 1501 01:11:44,387 --> 01:11:45,867 Speaker 15: the edge of my seat the whole game and then 1502 01:11:45,907 --> 01:11:48,707 Speaker 15: this game. I just it was just a painful watch 1503 01:11:48,747 --> 01:11:49,827 Speaker 15: from twenty minutes. 1504 01:11:49,547 --> 01:11:53,267 Speaker 3: In great to chet you Gareth, make callback anytime, love 1505 01:11:53,947 --> 01:11:55,787 Speaker 3: love your input. Thanks indeed, oh eight one hundred and 1506 01:11:55,787 --> 01:11:58,307 Speaker 3: eighty ten eighty as always as our number, Graham High, 1507 01:11:59,187 --> 01:11:59,627 Speaker 3: how are you going? 1508 01:11:59,707 --> 01:12:00,227 Speaker 15: Serve you well? 1509 01:12:00,707 --> 01:12:01,307 Speaker 3: Very well? Thank you? 1510 01:12:02,227 --> 01:12:05,987 Speaker 13: Yeah, little slightly controversial, but I think the problem's been 1511 01:12:06,547 --> 01:12:09,347 Speaker 13: around for a while. These enormous, bloated squads that we 1512 01:12:09,467 --> 01:12:12,947 Speaker 13: take on two, right, and if you look at the 1513 01:12:13,067 --> 01:12:15,907 Speaker 13: makeup of the side, and I'll justify this beginning of 1514 01:12:15,987 --> 01:12:19,907 Speaker 13: some call brothers, but I'm a generic rugby fan. I'll 1515 01:12:19,907 --> 01:12:21,507 Speaker 13: just watch a good game at rugby. I'm not partial 1516 01:12:21,547 --> 01:12:24,267 Speaker 13: to any super franchise. Right, there's far too many Chiefs 1517 01:12:24,347 --> 01:12:28,747 Speaker 13: players who are serial losers. That's they've been favorite four 1518 01:12:28,787 --> 01:12:30,747 Speaker 13: of the last five Super Rugby finals. I can't close 1519 01:12:30,787 --> 01:12:32,907 Speaker 13: the game out ther whole bench is made up of 1520 01:12:32,987 --> 01:12:35,147 Speaker 13: Kiefs players. So do we expect anything different at the 1521 01:12:35,227 --> 01:12:35,667 Speaker 13: end of the game. 1522 01:12:36,507 --> 01:12:39,827 Speaker 3: That is controversially, Graham, I'm not sure that there's necessarily 1523 01:12:39,867 --> 01:12:42,507 Speaker 3: a losing mindset. And the Chiefs, yes, they've lost three 1524 01:12:42,547 --> 01:12:42,987 Speaker 3: grand time. 1525 01:12:44,867 --> 01:12:47,987 Speaker 13: I agree that, right, but they just don't when they 1526 01:12:48,027 --> 01:12:50,867 Speaker 13: can't get across the line in big games. So you 1527 01:12:50,947 --> 01:12:53,587 Speaker 13: know when you bring on an round play with Quintapaia 1528 01:12:53,667 --> 01:12:56,187 Speaker 13: and Damian McKenzie. These guys have been around long time, 1529 01:12:56,227 --> 01:12:57,987 Speaker 13: the Chiefs, but they can't close out a big game. 1530 01:12:59,507 --> 01:13:01,747 Speaker 3: It's an interesting viewpoint. No, no, it's a good thought. 1531 01:13:01,987 --> 01:13:06,547 Speaker 3: All thoughts welcome, Graham. And the data would say that 1532 01:13:06,627 --> 01:13:09,387 Speaker 3: you're right on the bench. Docky a hal lord s 1533 01:13:09,587 --> 01:13:14,067 Speaker 3: Titi Topia McKenzie. So five on the bench there. Okay, 1534 01:13:14,267 --> 01:13:17,027 Speaker 3: I'm not sure about the correlation you've drawn it. I'm 1535 01:13:17,067 --> 01:13:20,387 Speaker 3: not sure about it, but it's certainly a salient point 1536 01:13:20,427 --> 01:13:23,627 Speaker 3: to raise. All opinions. Welcome on the show, as you know, Graham. 1537 01:13:24,067 --> 01:13:27,147 Speaker 15: David, Hello, you know Jason, how are you? 1538 01:13:27,707 --> 01:13:29,187 Speaker 3: I'm all right, David, I'm all right mate. 1539 01:13:29,547 --> 01:13:32,987 Speaker 35: Good will you'd be shaping up for the football season 1540 01:13:33,027 --> 01:13:36,787 Speaker 35: coming up, of course, but looking forward to it exactly 1541 01:13:37,387 --> 01:13:39,147 Speaker 35: and hope the phoenix ever been a year. But look 1542 01:13:40,227 --> 01:13:43,867 Speaker 35: my opinion anyway, thought's with there was no attack with 1543 01:13:44,067 --> 01:13:46,667 Speaker 35: all them bested the Warriors for no attack the last 1544 01:13:46,827 --> 01:13:49,507 Speaker 35: four weeks, or at least they showed some last night, 1545 01:13:49,587 --> 01:13:52,147 Speaker 35: But to me, there was no attack. It was timid. 1546 01:13:52,227 --> 01:13:52,947 Speaker 9: It was petsy. 1547 01:13:53,027 --> 01:13:55,867 Speaker 35: It was almost like Chloe Swallbook getting up and asking 1548 01:13:55,947 --> 01:13:58,547 Speaker 35: the Prime Minister a question. There was more attack coming 1549 01:13:58,587 --> 01:14:01,347 Speaker 35: from there from her than there wasn't any of our 1550 01:14:01,627 --> 01:14:05,867 Speaker 35: movements this morning. It was shocking. It was so passive 1551 01:14:06,467 --> 01:14:10,507 Speaker 35: that it was here. Well, it was my opinions anyway. 1552 01:14:10,627 --> 01:14:12,227 Speaker 2: You know, at the tries. 1553 01:14:12,507 --> 01:14:14,987 Speaker 3: Yeah, I look at the tries that we scored, David, 1554 01:14:15,147 --> 01:14:18,467 Speaker 3: and you know, a prop going over in the corner. 1555 01:14:18,907 --> 01:14:20,507 Speaker 3: To be fair, I thought that was, you know, that 1556 01:14:20,627 --> 01:14:22,147 Speaker 3: had the sort of the makings of a good back 1557 01:14:22,227 --> 01:14:24,547 Speaker 3: line move. And Will Jordan's throwing the wild cut out 1558 01:14:24,627 --> 01:14:29,267 Speaker 3: pass and you know, Fletch and you're going over in 1559 01:14:29,387 --> 01:14:33,227 Speaker 3: the corner. Billy Propter though from a you know, from 1560 01:14:33,267 --> 01:14:36,387 Speaker 3: a a lot was sort of drive close to the 1561 01:14:36,467 --> 01:14:39,227 Speaker 3: line and then Tokiyahu with a rolling wall. You know, 1562 01:14:39,307 --> 01:14:41,667 Speaker 3: we used to pride ourselves, didn't we on on flowing 1563 01:14:41,747 --> 01:14:45,707 Speaker 3: back line moves and and making space for the outsides 1564 01:14:45,787 --> 01:14:48,747 Speaker 3: and centers who could set up our wingers in our 1565 01:14:48,827 --> 01:14:51,547 Speaker 3: full back in space. And yeah that look, I know, 1566 01:14:51,707 --> 01:14:54,107 Speaker 3: I know, defenses these days are a lot, you know, 1567 01:14:54,147 --> 01:14:56,187 Speaker 3: a lot more refined in terms of the way they 1568 01:14:56,787 --> 01:14:59,027 Speaker 3: they do their research and things like that. But yeah, 1569 01:14:59,147 --> 01:15:01,707 Speaker 3: flowing back line moves just don't seem to be a 1570 01:15:01,827 --> 01:15:04,147 Speaker 3: quality that we possess necessarily at the moment. 1571 01:15:05,307 --> 01:15:07,027 Speaker 35: I'll tell you there's one good thing get out of 1572 01:15:07,147 --> 01:15:10,787 Speaker 35: us at least this year's Rugby Championship is actually no 1573 01:15:10,907 --> 01:15:12,707 Speaker 35: one knows who's going to win it yet and so 1574 01:15:12,827 --> 01:15:15,507 Speaker 35: there is actually something to sit and watch the damned thing, 1575 01:15:16,947 --> 01:15:20,067 Speaker 35: which makes it a little bit more endurable than the 1576 01:15:20,107 --> 01:15:22,227 Speaker 35: average one that's either of the All Blacks or South Africa. 1577 01:15:22,227 --> 01:15:23,947 Speaker 35: At least Australia has got a chance of winning the 1578 01:15:24,027 --> 01:15:24,787 Speaker 35: damn thing this year. 1579 01:15:25,507 --> 01:15:27,707 Speaker 3: Indeed, Look that's it, And I think if you don't 1580 01:15:27,707 --> 01:15:29,467 Speaker 3: have any skin in the game, then I think you're 1581 01:15:29,467 --> 01:15:32,987 Speaker 3: pleased about it, the fact that there's there's some genuine competition. 1582 01:15:34,067 --> 01:15:36,227 Speaker 3: I just mixed up those tries, didn't I The try 1583 01:15:36,307 --> 01:15:38,627 Speaker 3: to Proctor was the one that Jordan threw it wired 1584 01:15:38,667 --> 01:15:41,467 Speaker 3: to Rico, quick ball from Christy to Proctor who went 1585 01:15:41,507 --> 01:15:44,347 Speaker 3: over the Fletcher and your one was actually set up 1586 01:15:44,387 --> 01:15:47,107 Speaker 3: by Simon Parker and save coming into play half back. 1587 01:15:47,867 --> 01:15:50,187 Speaker 3: But yeah, that you know, and I know defenses are 1588 01:15:50,227 --> 01:15:55,027 Speaker 3: up quickly, of course they are. They they spot trouble 1589 01:15:55,827 --> 01:16:00,867 Speaker 3: quickly and don't give you space. But yeah, I don't know, 1590 01:16:01,067 --> 01:16:05,427 Speaker 3: they just there was it was disjointed. Jason Holland himself 1591 01:16:05,427 --> 01:16:10,427 Speaker 3: admitted it this morning nineteen to one. We'll take a break, Glenn, 1592 01:16:10,507 --> 01:16:12,027 Speaker 3: I'm with you right after the spear line if you 1593 01:16:12,067 --> 01:16:14,147 Speaker 3: want to jump on. We're talking all blacks till one. 1594 01:16:14,227 --> 01:16:17,587 Speaker 3: Warriors after one, Pugs says on ticks piney, when are 1595 01:16:17,587 --> 01:16:18,747 Speaker 3: we going to talk about the warriors? 1596 01:16:18,907 --> 01:16:19,027 Speaker 27: Up? 1597 01:16:19,067 --> 01:16:21,587 Speaker 3: The was Pugs eat straight after one? Stacy Jones going 1598 01:16:21,667 --> 01:16:23,267 Speaker 3: to take our call. Then we'll talk to warriors, but 1599 01:16:23,387 --> 01:16:25,467 Speaker 3: all blacks until one o'clock on eight hundred and eighty 1600 01:16:25,587 --> 01:16:25,987 Speaker 3: ten eighty. 1601 01:16:27,347 --> 01:16:29,387 Speaker 2: You be the TMO and yours say. 1602 01:16:29,427 --> 01:16:32,427 Speaker 1: On eight hundred and eighty ten eighty Weekend Sport with 1603 01:16:32,627 --> 01:16:36,707 Speaker 1: Jason Pain and GJ. Guvnerholmes, New Zealand's most trusted home 1604 01:16:36,747 --> 01:16:39,507 Speaker 1: builder News Talks, they'd be calld it to one. 1605 01:16:39,667 --> 01:16:45,467 Speaker 36: Hey Glenn, Hey, hey poney, geez. There was a tough 1606 01:16:45,547 --> 01:16:49,787 Speaker 36: watch this morning. A lot of it was to go through. 1607 01:16:50,187 --> 01:16:51,867 Speaker 36: But I'm just try and pick a few. And I'll 1608 01:16:51,867 --> 01:16:53,947 Speaker 36: start off by saying that I am absolutely die hard 1609 01:16:54,027 --> 01:16:58,347 Speaker 36: Crusaders fan, but I just can't see any improvement in 1610 01:16:58,467 --> 01:17:02,827 Speaker 36: this team since Robertson has taken over, and I think 1611 01:17:02,867 --> 01:17:05,507 Speaker 36: he'd make a great politician, because the guy never answered 1612 01:17:05,507 --> 01:17:09,347 Speaker 36: the question. He always talks in circles or riddles or 1613 01:17:09,427 --> 01:17:11,347 Speaker 36: makes it choke like he's just I don't know. 1614 01:17:11,427 --> 01:17:11,987 Speaker 16: I don't get it. 1615 01:17:12,107 --> 01:17:15,427 Speaker 36: As the heavens, it's really frustrating me. But on the team, 1616 01:17:16,067 --> 01:17:20,987 Speaker 36: the facts just don't look no cohesion. They don't seem 1617 01:17:21,067 --> 01:17:23,867 Speaker 36: to know what to do, which is astounding considering the 1618 01:17:23,947 --> 01:17:27,907 Speaker 36: quality of the players on the box kicks. The box 1619 01:17:28,027 --> 01:17:31,307 Speaker 36: kicks is great if it's contestable, but ours hardly ever are, 1620 01:17:31,547 --> 01:17:34,707 Speaker 36: whereas there's always seemed to be same with the kickoff 1621 01:17:34,787 --> 01:17:38,427 Speaker 36: at halfway. Theirs is always contestable and fifty to fifty 1622 01:17:38,587 --> 01:17:41,027 Speaker 36: we lose it. We kick off, we kick it a 1623 01:17:41,027 --> 01:17:45,027 Speaker 36: long and there's no conky for them to get the 1624 01:17:45,067 --> 01:17:47,027 Speaker 36: ball back. They just get it round up a bit 1625 01:17:47,067 --> 01:17:47,427 Speaker 36: and then. 1626 01:17:47,387 --> 01:17:48,387 Speaker 37: Kick it back down to us. 1627 01:17:49,107 --> 01:17:53,747 Speaker 36: As I don't know. There was just such a frustrating watch. Forwards, 1628 01:17:53,947 --> 01:17:56,027 Speaker 36: we talk about site well, we talk about wanting to 1629 01:17:56,067 --> 01:17:58,107 Speaker 36: play a quick game, but then we pick a FOURD 1630 01:17:58,187 --> 01:18:02,427 Speaker 36: pack which doesn't offer that. There's no mobility in the 1631 01:18:02,587 --> 01:18:06,827 Speaker 36: facts three. I don't know, Man, we've got two weeks 1632 01:18:06,907 --> 01:18:11,147 Speaker 36: until we're probably going to lose the Ian Park record. 1633 01:18:11,707 --> 01:18:14,387 Speaker 36: But man, I really hope that they turn it around. 1634 01:18:14,507 --> 01:18:16,387 Speaker 36: And if they picked pretty much the same game, I 1635 01:18:16,787 --> 01:18:19,307 Speaker 36: might't have a massive issue with it because I don't 1636 01:18:19,347 --> 01:18:21,067 Speaker 36: know who else they can possibly bring in and they 1637 01:18:21,147 --> 01:18:22,987 Speaker 36: don't have any time to do it. Do you say 1638 01:18:23,027 --> 01:18:26,067 Speaker 36: to this team, it's on you, guys, like you've got 1639 01:18:26,147 --> 01:18:28,387 Speaker 36: to turn it around and give them that chance. But 1640 01:18:29,027 --> 01:18:31,427 Speaker 36: moving forward and going into the World Cup, man, we 1641 01:18:31,547 --> 01:18:32,587 Speaker 36: have got some problems. 1642 01:18:33,187 --> 01:18:34,827 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I have to do that, Glenn for 1643 01:18:34,907 --> 01:18:37,747 Speaker 3: this next test. I don't like, as I said a 1644 01:18:37,787 --> 01:18:40,787 Speaker 3: little while ago, they're out of time. They're basically all 1645 01:18:40,827 --> 01:18:42,987 Speaker 3: in on this team. I wouldn't imagine that there would 1646 01:18:42,987 --> 01:18:46,587 Speaker 3: be too many changes. They might look at something perhaps, 1647 01:18:46,667 --> 01:18:48,107 Speaker 3: I mean, I think so Tet will come into the 1648 01:18:48,147 --> 01:18:50,867 Speaker 3: starting side. I think that's one thing they'll do before 1649 01:18:53,027 --> 01:18:54,667 Speaker 3: Yeah to mighty yep, the other one yep. 1650 01:18:55,387 --> 01:18:56,907 Speaker 10: And they've got to start. 1651 01:18:58,347 --> 01:19:01,067 Speaker 36: Jordan is absolutely our fallback, like he's World Cup player. 1652 01:19:01,187 --> 01:19:03,747 Speaker 36: One bad game doesn't change that. But the guy had 1653 01:19:03,787 --> 01:19:07,667 Speaker 36: no support. No one else was taking box skips. He 1654 01:19:07,827 --> 01:19:09,947 Speaker 36: was the only one coming forward. Whether or not that 1655 01:19:10,107 --> 01:19:12,067 Speaker 36: was the plan, I don't know, but usually you see 1656 01:19:12,787 --> 01:19:17,627 Speaker 36: like wingers trying to help out as well, but didn't see. 1657 01:19:17,507 --> 01:19:17,827 Speaker 23: Any of that. 1658 01:19:19,147 --> 01:19:22,467 Speaker 3: I've enjoyia summary, Glenn. Thanks mate. Let's chat again when 1659 01:19:22,507 --> 01:19:25,147 Speaker 3: South Africa get here and we can reassess. I still 1660 01:19:25,147 --> 01:19:26,907 Speaker 3: think they'll want an Eden Park. I actually think they'll 1661 01:19:26,907 --> 01:19:28,707 Speaker 3: win that test match. I think there's so much emotion 1662 01:19:28,827 --> 01:19:31,307 Speaker 3: wrapped around it. It'll be Ardi's one hundredth not that 1663 01:19:31,347 --> 01:19:33,867 Speaker 3: it mattered with Cody's this morning, but I think they'll 1664 01:19:33,907 --> 01:19:36,827 Speaker 3: win at eden Park. Whether they can win both as 1665 01:19:36,867 --> 01:19:38,747 Speaker 3: a very different story. And there's a lot of work 1666 01:19:38,787 --> 01:19:41,947 Speaker 3: to do, and yeah, and what have we Now? We're 1667 01:19:41,987 --> 01:19:44,747 Speaker 3: in you know, we're midway in a World Cup cycle. 1668 01:19:45,627 --> 01:19:50,307 Speaker 3: I'm almost certain that severa Reese and Rico Yowani won't 1669 01:19:50,307 --> 01:19:52,707 Speaker 3: be starting on the wins in the opening game for 1670 01:19:52,827 --> 01:19:55,547 Speaker 3: the All Blacks at the next World Cup.

I think he's definitely 1721 01:22:18,907 --> 01:22:21,467 Speaker 3: changed from the way he was when he was crusaders coach. 1722 01:22:22,707 --> 01:22:25,787 Speaker 3: When he was Crusader's coach, he was he was very happy, 1723 01:22:25,867 --> 01:22:30,147 Speaker 3: go lucky and and really good in the media and quirky, 1724 01:22:30,307 --> 01:22:32,187 Speaker 3: and he'd throw you something that was a bit different. 1725 01:22:32,587 --> 01:22:34,587 Speaker 3: I just think, for whatever reason, he's just being a 1726 01:22:34,627 --> 01:22:37,947 Speaker 3: bit more cautious as All Blacks coach and and I 1727 01:22:37,987 --> 01:22:41,107 Speaker 3: think he's almost caught between his personality and what he 1728 01:22:41,187 --> 01:22:43,747 Speaker 3: thinks the All Blacks coach diuld sound like that's just 1729 01:22:43,827 --> 01:22:46,507 Speaker 3: an observation because he used to be so good in 1730 01:22:46,627 --> 01:22:49,187 Speaker 3: media situations. It's almost like he's just, oh, it's a 1731 01:22:49,227 --> 01:22:51,787 Speaker 3: bit more serious now, doesn't have to be rich. Hello, 1732 01:22:53,507 --> 01:22:54,707 Speaker 3: how are you going good? 1733 01:22:55,987 --> 01:22:56,187 Speaker 34: Yeah? 1734 01:22:56,227 --> 01:23:01,227 Speaker 8: Look, I can't believe today's game. How I was absolutely 1735 01:23:01,307 --> 01:23:04,267 Speaker 8: in shock as to how they how they All Blacks 1736 01:23:04,307 --> 01:23:07,827 Speaker 8: play today, And it's been it's been ongoing for the 1737 01:23:07,947 --> 01:23:10,947 Speaker 8: last number of years and that. But when Scott Robinson 1738 01:23:11,027 --> 01:23:13,227 Speaker 8: first came into the side a few years ago or 1739 01:23:13,627 --> 01:23:15,107 Speaker 8: I thought everything. 1740 01:23:14,867 --> 01:23:15,667 Speaker 15: Was going to change. 1741 01:23:16,067 --> 01:23:20,507 Speaker 8: The Crusaders were adventurous, were expansive, hard working on the ball. 1742 01:23:21,187 --> 01:23:23,227 Speaker 8: That seems to have gone now now we're sort of 1743 01:23:23,307 --> 01:23:26,587 Speaker 8: going back to the kick and trace of the box kick. 1744 01:23:26,867 --> 01:23:31,787 Speaker 8: I just can't understand the frustration I feel with watching that. 1745 01:23:32,267 --> 01:23:33,947 Speaker 8: We went to that in the first couple of minutes. 1746 01:23:35,107 --> 01:23:38,787 Speaker 8: I just can't understand where we're coming where that's all 1747 01:23:38,827 --> 01:23:41,187 Speaker 8: come about from Regie. 1748 01:23:41,227 --> 01:23:43,507 Speaker 3: I think you're not. You're not the only one scratching 1749 01:23:43,547 --> 01:23:45,667 Speaker 3: their head, my friend, You're not the only one who's 1750 01:23:45,827 --> 01:23:49,347 Speaker 3: Who's I think worried or a little bit maybe confused 1751 01:23:49,387 --> 01:23:51,867 Speaker 3: that that right, that you're right after a year and 1752 01:23:51,907 --> 01:23:55,107 Speaker 3: a half near enough with their hands on the squad, 1753 01:23:55,227 --> 01:23:58,067 Speaker 3: that that where where we are now. We're in a 1754 01:23:58,147 --> 01:24:00,267 Speaker 3: point where we've just lost to Argentina for the first 1755 01:24:00,307 --> 01:24:02,627 Speaker 3: time in Argentina, We've got a couple of test matches 1756 01:24:02,627 --> 01:24:04,787 Speaker 3: against South Africa, which at best I think most of 1757 01:24:04,907 --> 01:24:08,707 Speaker 3: us would feel PESSI stick about, and you know, in 1758 01:24:08,747 --> 01:24:10,547 Speaker 3: the middle of a World Cup cycle, there is still 1759 01:24:10,707 --> 01:24:13,507 Speaker 3: time because we'll be judged well, these coaches will on 1760 01:24:13,667 --> 01:24:16,347 Speaker 3: what happens in two years time. But yeah, I think 1761 01:24:16,747 --> 01:24:18,747 Speaker 3: you probably land on a pretty good point that a 1762 01:24:18,827 --> 01:24:20,787 Speaker 3: lot of us thought that we would be in a 1763 01:24:20,827 --> 01:24:25,307 Speaker 3: different place twenty tests into the regime of Razor. 1764 01:24:26,867 --> 01:24:28,467 Speaker 8: We seem to be very fragile. 1765 01:24:29,107 --> 01:24:31,307 Speaker 15: I just or we just don't seem to be. 1766 01:24:31,587 --> 01:24:34,867 Speaker 8: I can't remember in today's game whether I saw a 1767 01:24:34,947 --> 01:24:38,027 Speaker 8: backline move, I can't remember it happened. It all seemed 1768 01:24:38,027 --> 01:24:40,707 Speaker 8: to be from scattered ball. We just seems to be 1769 01:24:40,787 --> 01:24:43,307 Speaker 8: in two minds our tactics. We need to get rid 1770 01:24:43,347 --> 01:24:45,547 Speaker 8: of the box keep. I think we're just we're using 1771 01:24:45,747 --> 01:24:48,667 Speaker 8: We're over using it too much. It's just so frustrating. 1772 01:24:49,267 --> 01:24:52,067 Speaker 3: Yeah, Rich, You're not the only one frustrated. Thanks for 1773 01:24:52,107 --> 01:24:53,787 Speaker 3: you call.

The Warriors 1814 01:27:18,987 --> 01:27:19,707 Speaker 3: get around it. 1815 01:27:20,507 --> 01:27:23,427 Speaker 6: Top four, Top four, the ree. 1816 01:27:23,427 --> 01:27:24,347 Speaker 2: Game winning form. 1817 01:27:24,387 --> 01:27:29,227 Speaker 3: They've won back to back weeks. There are two weeks. 1818 01:27:28,987 --> 01:27:32,667 Speaker 7: Away for the top four finighs to Warriors. 1819 01:27:33,507 --> 01:27:36,907 Speaker 41: Not their best win of the season, but at this 1820 01:27:37,187 --> 01:27:39,387 Speaker 41: end of the year, there's so much to play for. 1821 01:27:40,467 --> 01:27:42,827 Speaker 6: Get through, put the points of the beach and march 1822 01:27:42,907 --> 01:27:43,747 Speaker 6: on the next week. 1823 01:27:44,667 --> 01:27:50,107 Speaker 41: Full time Warriors thirty two the Titans eighty Yeah. 1824 01:27:50,307 --> 01:27:54,467 Speaker 3: A vintage performance from Roger to Ivasascheck has helped propel 1825 01:27:54,507 --> 01:27:57,387 Speaker 3: the Warriors to that thirty two to eighteen win over 1826 01:27:57,427 --> 01:28:00,827 Speaker 3: the Titans. He scored two of the warriors five tries, 1827 01:28:00,907 --> 01:28:04,187 Speaker 3: allowing them to snap a three game losing streak against 1828 01:28:04,227 --> 01:28:06,787 Speaker 3: the Titans, who inexplicably had been become a bit of 1829 01:28:06,827 --> 01:28:11,027 Speaker 3: a bogie team. For the Warriors, it also consolidates their 1830 01:28:11,107 --> 01:28:14,267 Speaker 3: spot in the top four and keeps their destiny in 1831 01:28:14,347 --> 01:28:17,987 Speaker 3: their own hands with two games to play before the playoffs. Now, 1832 01:28:17,987 --> 01:28:20,147 Speaker 3: I'm not sure if this was certain before yesterday, but 1833 01:28:20,227 --> 01:28:22,467 Speaker 3: the Warriors now cannot fall out of the top eight. 1834 01:28:22,987 --> 01:28:26,147 Speaker 3: They will be playing playoff football. That might have been 1835 01:28:26,187 --> 01:28:28,507 Speaker 3: the case even before they kicked off last night, but 1836 01:28:28,667 --> 01:28:31,307 Speaker 3: as I look at the table, they cannot be overtaken 1837 01:28:31,747 --> 01:28:34,227 Speaker 3: in the top eight now. So we've got that locked away. 1838 01:28:34,307 --> 01:28:37,467 Speaker 3: But the top four will well and truly still be 1839 01:28:37,707 --> 01:28:39,787 Speaker 3: in their sights. Ken to open the lines and hear 1840 01:28:39,827 --> 01:28:42,307 Speaker 3: from you Warriors fans, but the team is about to 1841 01:28:42,347 --> 01:28:46,267 Speaker 3: fly out back to Auckland. Assistant coach Stacy Jones is 1842 01:28:46,507 --> 01:28:49,187 Speaker 3: on the line stage. Congratulations on the win last night 1843 01:28:49,307 --> 01:28:52,187 Speaker 3: as you wait to fly back. What stands out most 1844 01:28:52,187 --> 01:28:54,147 Speaker 3: about the win and about the performance from your team 1845 01:28:54,187 --> 01:28:54,587 Speaker 3: last night? 1846 01:28:55,347 --> 01:28:58,827 Speaker 34: Oh yeah, hey, Jasons, Yeah. Look, I thought we look 1847 01:28:58,867 --> 01:29:02,707 Speaker 34: pretty clinical with our attack, especially out on the edges, 1848 01:29:02,707 --> 01:29:06,587 Speaker 34: and we scored some nice tries. I thought, you know, 1849 01:29:06,707 --> 01:29:09,707 Speaker 34: our two edges kick chased really well, brock Aberry leading 1850 01:29:09,787 --> 01:29:12,427 Speaker 34: the leading the way on our right side and capable 1851 01:29:12,507 --> 01:29:14,387 Speaker 34: on the left side, and the boys went well with them. 1852 01:29:14,427 --> 01:29:17,307 Speaker 34: And then you know we forced you know Gold Coast 1853 01:29:17,307 --> 01:29:19,787 Speaker 34: to kick deep with them there in their half and 1854 01:29:20,067 --> 01:29:22,307 Speaker 34: our backfield, we were able to get some really good momentum. 1855 01:29:22,387 --> 01:29:24,507 Speaker 34: So there are two sort of pleasing parts of our game. 1856 01:29:24,587 --> 01:29:28,387 Speaker 34: And then defense, I thought, you know, we apart from 1857 01:29:28,547 --> 01:29:30,627 Speaker 34: him scoring in the first few minutes, I thought we 1858 01:29:30,747 --> 01:29:34,467 Speaker 34: held our line pretty well for the most and you know, 1859 01:29:34,587 --> 01:29:37,027 Speaker 34: they were they looked threatening when you know they put 1860 01:29:37,067 --> 01:29:39,987 Speaker 34: early kicks and behind us, and and maybe when they 1861 01:29:40,027 --> 01:29:42,027 Speaker 34: got an offload on us. But all in all, I thought, 1862 01:29:42,587 --> 01:29:44,467 Speaker 34: you know, we defended, defended really well. 1863 01:29:44,947 --> 01:29:49,387 Speaker 3: The halves combo, Chanelle and Tanner, the general play they're kicking, 1864 01:29:49,587 --> 01:29:51,667 Speaker 3: their partnership with one another. Do you reckon that was 1865 01:29:51,707 --> 01:29:53,827 Speaker 3: their best performance together this season? 1866 01:29:55,667 --> 01:29:55,867 Speaker 18: Yeah? 1867 01:29:55,947 --> 01:29:59,387 Speaker 34: Possibly, Jason. I you know, I haven't quite looked at 1868 01:29:59,387 --> 01:30:01,467 Speaker 34: the game closer enough you'd've watched half of it, but 1869 01:30:02,627 --> 01:30:04,787 Speaker 34: you know, they both complemented each other really well. I 1870 01:30:04,827 --> 01:30:09,347 Speaker 34: thought Tanner voids long long kicking game was spot on, 1871 01:30:09,507 --> 01:30:12,507 Speaker 34: and you know, Chanelle came up for a couple of 1872 01:30:12,587 --> 01:30:15,227 Speaker 34: nice touches too. So you know, having a left footed 1873 01:30:15,267 --> 01:30:17,227 Speaker 34: kicker and a right footed kicker certainly gives you some 1874 01:30:17,307 --> 01:30:17,867 Speaker 34: good options. 1875 01:30:18,467 --> 01:30:20,827 Speaker 3: How big a player is Roger Tivaisi check for you. 1876 01:30:22,107 --> 01:30:25,747 Speaker 34: Yeah, look, he certainly you know, he founder found a 1877 01:30:25,787 --> 01:30:28,107 Speaker 34: place from south there on the left wing, and you 1878 01:30:28,187 --> 01:30:29,907 Speaker 34: know he's really focused on what he wants and he's 1879 01:30:30,227 --> 01:30:32,467 Speaker 34: a good thing about him. You know, he's gone after 1880 01:30:32,587 --> 01:30:35,587 Speaker 34: the game, you know, when you know the Titans were 1881 01:30:35,627 --> 01:30:37,507 Speaker 34: kicking the ball back going, attitude was one that was 1882 01:30:37,547 --> 01:30:39,507 Speaker 34: getting a lot of a lot of benefits. And he 1883 01:30:39,547 --> 01:30:41,467 Speaker 34: certainly gets our sets going. And then you know when 1884 01:30:41,507 --> 01:30:42,827 Speaker 34: we kick the ball, he come up to a nice 1885 01:30:42,827 --> 01:30:45,547 Speaker 34: play where he tested the ball and got a tap 1886 01:30:45,627 --> 01:30:48,907 Speaker 34: back and Adam went over and scored. So but Rogers, 1887 01:30:48,987 --> 01:30:51,227 Speaker 34: you know, I think for the last sort of ten 1888 01:30:51,267 --> 01:30:52,867 Speaker 34: weeks he's been one of our best players. 1889 01:30:53,587 --> 01:30:55,867 Speaker 3: Can you talk also face about the development and the 1890 01:30:55,987 --> 01:30:58,587 Speaker 3: progress that you're seeing in your younger players? 1891 01:30:59,667 --> 01:31:02,107 Speaker 34: Yeah, yeah, really good. You know, I was just sitting 1892 01:31:02,147 --> 01:31:03,707 Speaker 34: here with Web and we're talking about some of the 1893 01:31:03,747 --> 01:31:05,947 Speaker 34: young kids and what you know they're output in the game, 1894 01:31:06,107 --> 01:31:09,347 Speaker 34: is you Tanna Sto was starting, you know and getting 1895 01:31:09,387 --> 01:31:13,027 Speaker 34: some really good minutes and then the Metric and Lekuer 1896 01:31:13,107 --> 01:31:16,387 Speaker 34: and Eddie year a Mia come on and then they 1897 01:31:16,507 --> 01:31:19,267 Speaker 34: players that you know, they've got good insts on them 1898 01:31:19,307 --> 01:31:23,547 Speaker 34: in particular Tanner and Eddie and Lecker and Dimitric. We 1899 01:31:23,667 --> 01:31:25,587 Speaker 34: know about their power and strength, but the other two, 1900 01:31:26,147 --> 01:31:28,107 Speaker 34: you know, they played big minutes. And you know we 1901 01:31:29,067 --> 01:31:32,787 Speaker 34: losing jackson Ford last night all sorry last week for 1902 01:31:33,147 --> 01:31:34,667 Speaker 34: a few weeks, you know, we thought it can be 1903 01:31:34,707 --> 01:31:37,267 Speaker 34: a big loss. But I thought Eddie and Tanner really 1904 01:31:37,307 --> 01:31:41,147 Speaker 34: stood up and took places what Jacko usually does for 1905 01:31:41,267 --> 01:31:42,227 Speaker 34: us in. 1906 01:31:42,307 --> 01:31:43,947 Speaker 3: Terms of the work ons. Do you do you look 1907 01:31:43,947 --> 01:31:45,947 Speaker 3: at the lake the two late crist You can see 1908 01:31:45,947 --> 01:31:47,747 Speaker 3: it even though the game was signed up by by 1909 01:31:47,787 --> 01:31:48,907 Speaker 3: the end, do you look at that? 1910 01:31:49,667 --> 01:31:51,707 Speaker 34: Yeah? Look, yeah, you know we do. You know that 1911 01:31:51,827 --> 01:31:54,387 Speaker 34: was disappointing parts of the game cross but you know 1912 01:31:54,467 --> 01:31:56,027 Speaker 34: that's a gold Coast can do. And we knew that 1913 01:31:56,107 --> 01:31:58,427 Speaker 34: they were going to move the board, get off loads 1914 01:31:58,467 --> 01:32:00,587 Speaker 34: and kick early on us, and you know, and it 1915 01:32:00,707 --> 01:32:02,667 Speaker 34: came off of them. You know, they're they're risky players, 1916 01:32:02,707 --> 01:32:05,347 Speaker 34: but they had to do something. But yeah, we're probably 1917 01:32:06,027 --> 01:32:08,067 Speaker 34: there's a moment now I thought we were. We had 1918 01:32:08,107 --> 01:32:09,747 Speaker 34: them on the ropes and we might have thrown a 1919 01:32:09,827 --> 01:32:11,827 Speaker 34: loose part and they got and got momentum down the 1920 01:32:11,867 --> 01:32:13,627 Speaker 34: other end. So that was the pointy part because we 1921 01:32:13,627 --> 01:32:17,267 Speaker 34: could have possible and scored a few more points. 1922 01:32:17,627 --> 01:32:20,107 Speaker 3: Did the recent record against the Titans get talked about 1923 01:32:20,147 --> 01:32:21,827 Speaker 3: it all in the build up to last night? 1924 01:32:22,547 --> 01:32:24,547 Speaker 34: Not at all, No, No, not at all. Yeah, we 1925 01:32:24,747 --> 01:32:26,947 Speaker 34: just sort of processed for them with what we need 1926 01:32:27,027 --> 01:32:30,387 Speaker 34: to do. You know, I think you know, they only 1927 01:32:30,427 --> 01:32:33,787 Speaker 34: probably talk around that was probably what you know, you 1928 01:32:33,867 --> 01:32:35,947 Speaker 34: guys were saying the media and all of that, you know, 1929 01:32:36,187 --> 01:32:39,307 Speaker 34: outside noisy, but we never mentioned all within our group. 1930 01:32:39,947 --> 01:32:41,667 Speaker 3: And I don't know how many key Wes live on 1931 01:32:41,707 --> 01:32:43,867 Speaker 3: the Gold Coast, but I think most of them must 1932 01:32:43,867 --> 01:32:45,267 Speaker 3: have been there last night. How was the crowd? It 1933 01:32:45,347 --> 01:32:46,067 Speaker 3: was like a home game. 1934 01:32:46,867 --> 01:32:48,867 Speaker 34: It was unreal. Yeah, it was like a home game. 1935 01:32:48,867 --> 01:32:51,587 Speaker 34: It felt like Yeah, Mount Smart or Go Mediate was 1936 01:32:51,747 --> 01:32:57,267 Speaker 34: was unreal the what we had and yeah, boys really 1937 01:32:57,867 --> 01:33:00,267 Speaker 34: really loved it and it was a great, great place 1938 01:33:00,307 --> 01:33:01,027 Speaker 34: to the last night. 1939 01:33:01,427 --> 01:33:04,147 Speaker 3: All right, just to finish. Top four remains in your 1940 01:33:04,187 --> 01:33:07,067 Speaker 3: own hands. How does the week week ahead look for 1941 01:33:07,187 --> 01:33:09,467 Speaker 3: you as you as you prepare for Parameta? 1942 01:33:10,267 --> 01:33:15,507 Speaker 34: Yeah, look, big day tomorrow for us. Tuesday off boys 1943 01:33:15,547 --> 01:33:18,547 Speaker 34: for freshing up, and then we focused on Parameta. So 1944 01:33:18,627 --> 01:33:21,467 Speaker 34: we've we've sort of got to look at review last 1945 01:33:21,547 --> 01:33:26,107 Speaker 34: last performance. Tomorrow and then yeah, crack on, but Paramta 1946 01:33:26,147 --> 01:33:29,147 Speaker 34: playing some really really good footing, so they're going to 1947 01:33:29,187 --> 01:33:30,867 Speaker 34: be it's gonna be a tough game for us. But 1948 01:33:31,547 --> 01:33:34,667 Speaker 34: you know, we know that, you know, if we put 1949 01:33:34,707 --> 01:33:36,827 Speaker 34: together a performance, we want to be in the top four. 1950 01:33:38,067 --> 01:33:39,347 Speaker 34: So it's in our ends. 1951 01:33:39,587 --> 01:33:42,307 Speaker 3: All right, have a relaxing flight home, Stace, thanks for taking. 1952 01:33:42,067 --> 01:33:43,707 Speaker 9: Our call mate pleasures. 1953 01:33:43,707 --> 01:33:45,147 Speaker 34: Thanks, no, thanks, no, thank you. 1954 01:33:45,187 --> 01:33:48,627 Speaker 3: Stacy, Stacy Jones, their assistant coach of the Warriors. All right, 1955 01:33:49,027 --> 01:33:51,107 Speaker 3: Warriors fans, let's hear from you are eight hundred and 1956 01:33:51,147 --> 01:33:54,107 Speaker 3: eighty ten eighty. Now do we feel like a top 1957 01:33:54,147 --> 01:33:56,707 Speaker 3: four side? Over the last couple of weeks? I know 1958 01:33:56,747 --> 01:34:00,187 Speaker 3: there have been doubts. It's been a bit creaky. The 1959 01:34:00,267 --> 01:34:02,707 Speaker 3: win last week over the Dragons kind of steadied things, 1960 01:34:02,747 --> 01:34:04,907 Speaker 3: didn't it. But off the back of those losses to 1961 01:34:04,947 --> 01:34:09,227 Speaker 3: the Titans ironically Dolf Bulldogs, it was just a little 1962 01:34:09,267 --> 01:34:12,107 Speaker 3: bit shaky, wasn't it. Now back to back over the 1963 01:34:12,187 --> 01:34:15,827 Speaker 3: Dragons and the Titans last night. Let's not worry about 1964 01:34:15,827 --> 01:34:17,427 Speaker 3: how we'll go once we get there. Let's not worry 1965 01:34:17,427 --> 01:34:19,547 Speaker 3: about that for the moment. Let's talk about getting there 1966 01:34:20,227 --> 01:34:25,387 Speaker 3: the top four. It's tantalizingly close. Now as things stand, 1967 01:34:25,627 --> 01:34:28,667 Speaker 3: two games to go, Warriors, you get two points for 1968 01:34:28,747 --> 01:34:32,267 Speaker 3: a win. Let's just make that clear. Warriors thirty four points, 1969 01:34:33,027 --> 01:34:37,267 Speaker 3: Sharks thirty two, Panthers thirty one, Broncos thirty. Now they've 1970 01:34:37,307 --> 01:34:40,587 Speaker 3: got one more game to play. They visit Newcastle this afternoon, 1971 01:34:40,707 --> 01:34:44,827 Speaker 3: so come on the nights Roosters twenty eight. So the 1972 01:34:45,067 --> 01:34:47,827 Speaker 3: top four equation for the Warriors is starting to simplify itself. 1973 01:34:48,107 --> 01:34:50,627 Speaker 3: Win both of their remaining games and they're in that 1974 01:34:50,867 --> 01:34:55,227 Speaker 3: is that is certain. So it's in their own hands. 1975 01:34:55,307 --> 01:34:58,227 Speaker 3: Beat the Eels on Friday night and the Sea Eagles 1976 01:34:58,267 --> 01:35:00,707 Speaker 3: away the following weekend and they're in the top four. 1977 01:35:00,947 --> 01:35:06,267 Speaker 3: Or win one of those games, while Cranulla and Bruce 1978 01:35:06,427 --> 01:35:09,507 Speaker 3: been both lose at least once and they're in the 1979 01:35:09,547 --> 01:35:14,947 Speaker 3: top four as well. So that's a that's an if scenario. 1980 01:35:15,547 --> 01:35:17,707 Speaker 3: But I think that the simple equation has just win 1981 01:35:17,827 --> 01:35:20,987 Speaker 3: both the games. Just win both the games. Are the 1982 01:35:21,027 --> 01:35:22,747 Speaker 3: other thing I've written down before we go to the lines, 1983 01:35:22,987 --> 01:35:24,347 Speaker 3: I think I wrote down as I watching that game 1984 01:35:24,387 --> 01:35:27,947 Speaker 3: last night, I just wrote down on my notepad, how 1985 01:35:28,027 --> 01:35:31,467 Speaker 3: good is Roger to Varsa shek My god, what a 1986 01:35:31,547 --> 01:35:36,147 Speaker 3: player he's been when there's been injury and unavailability and 1987 01:35:37,107 --> 01:35:42,747 Speaker 3: inconsistency and shuffling of players around. Roger to Varsa Shek 1988 01:35:42,907 --> 01:35:49,147 Speaker 3: has just absolutely stood up and that number five jersey 1989 01:35:49,227 --> 01:35:54,627 Speaker 3: for the Warriors. He is the epitome of leadership. And 1990 01:35:54,707 --> 01:35:56,867 Speaker 3: I'm loving the way he's playing, not just the tries 1991 01:35:57,307 --> 01:36:01,187 Speaker 3: he scored, but that contesting the ball in the air. 1992 01:36:01,227 --> 01:36:03,027 Speaker 3: We talked about the All Blacks not contesting that well 1993 01:36:03,067 --> 01:36:05,587 Speaker 3: in the air. Roger contesting in the air in the 1994 01:36:05,667 --> 01:36:07,947 Speaker 3: second half, knocking it back and leading to the try 1995 01:36:07,987 --> 01:36:12,587 Speaker 3: that Adam Pompey scored. Roger Tivasask can still play man 1996 01:36:12,627 --> 01:36:13,347 Speaker 3: even at thirty two. 1997 01:36:13,427 --> 01:36:17,987 Speaker 38: Hello Ellen, Yeah, good afternoon, Jason. Look, just briefly on 1998 01:36:18,547 --> 01:36:22,227 Speaker 38: to Vasishek, I was going to talk about something else. 1999 01:36:22,867 --> 01:36:26,107 Speaker 38: I think that you have to also take into account 2000 01:36:26,147 --> 01:36:29,987 Speaker 38: that Roger is playing not playing in his preferred position. 2001 01:36:30,627 --> 01:36:33,787 Speaker 38: Most of his NRL career has been at fullback. But 2002 01:36:33,987 --> 01:36:36,547 Speaker 38: he is such a he is such a good player 2003 01:36:37,547 --> 01:36:41,387 Speaker 38: that he can adapt pretty readily. I don't think that 2004 01:36:41,507 --> 01:36:43,387 Speaker 38: he's one of these people that's going to wind up 2005 01:36:43,427 --> 01:36:47,387 Speaker 38: in the forwards. I think that he's getting a bit 2006 01:36:47,467 --> 01:36:51,507 Speaker 38: older now of course, but he still maintains his speed, 2007 01:36:52,267 --> 01:36:55,787 Speaker 38: but his knowledge of the game and his league intelligence 2008 01:36:57,187 --> 01:36:59,147 Speaker 38: was right up there with the best of them. And 2009 01:36:59,627 --> 01:37:02,667 Speaker 38: it just shows that he can go into a his 2010 01:37:02,867 --> 01:37:05,867 Speaker 38: not preferred position and do so well. Look what I 2011 01:37:05,907 --> 01:37:11,707 Speaker 38: wanted to talk about was Tavida Harris. Now, he did 2012 01:37:11,867 --> 01:37:16,227 Speaker 38: such a great job on Jaden Campbell last night. Jaden 2013 01:37:16,347 --> 01:37:21,707 Speaker 38: Campbell is the Titans strike player, He's the go to guy, 2014 01:37:22,867 --> 01:37:26,827 Speaker 38: and Harris just got in his face and tackled him 2015 01:37:26,867 --> 01:37:29,867 Speaker 38: and put him down. And he made very very little 2016 01:37:29,987 --> 01:37:34,267 Speaker 38: yardage at all whole game, and it was mainly Tavida 2017 01:37:34,267 --> 01:37:37,107 Speaker 38: Harris that just turned up on him and put him down. 2018 01:37:37,547 --> 01:37:40,227 Speaker 38: And that's not an easy feat to do. We all 2019 01:37:40,347 --> 01:37:42,787 Speaker 38: know how good Jaden Campbell is. I mean, we've seen it. 2020 01:37:43,547 --> 01:37:47,227 Speaker 38: He is a brilliant, brilliant runner, and he's a great attacker, 2021 01:37:47,947 --> 01:37:50,947 Speaker 38: and Tavida Harris just shut him down. Since he's come 2022 01:37:51,107 --> 01:37:55,187 Speaker 38: back from his trip, I believe he's matured enormously in 2023 01:37:55,307 --> 01:38:00,827 Speaker 38: his league intelligence and I think he really now he 2024 01:38:00,987 --> 01:38:04,187 Speaker 38: seems to know exactly what he's going to do and 2025 01:38:04,307 --> 01:38:06,587 Speaker 38: why he's going to do it, and where he got 2026 01:38:06,667 --> 01:38:09,347 Speaker 38: that quick ball out to Adam Pompey last night. A 2027 01:38:09,827 --> 01:38:14,067 Speaker 38: great piece of improvisation. He knew where Pompey was and 2028 01:38:14,227 --> 01:38:16,667 Speaker 38: he got the ball out to him in a flash. 2029 01:38:17,107 --> 01:38:20,027 Speaker 38: And I just thought, along with a lot of other 2030 01:38:20,067 --> 01:38:23,987 Speaker 38: Warriors last night who all played well, I thought he 2031 01:38:24,187 --> 01:38:27,587 Speaker 38: was one of the standouts, along with Turvarsas Shek And 2032 01:38:27,707 --> 01:38:29,747 Speaker 38: the other thing I did want to say, Jason, is 2033 01:38:29,827 --> 01:38:33,427 Speaker 38: that it just shows when we get some of our 2034 01:38:33,547 --> 01:38:38,707 Speaker 38: first stringers back how good we can be Cape Kirkwell and. 2035 01:38:40,667 --> 01:38:43,267 Speaker 3: Barry Y Hardly hardly. 2036 01:38:43,387 --> 01:38:45,227 Speaker 18: Yeah, yeah, he has. 2037 01:38:45,187 --> 01:38:49,307 Speaker 38: Been genuinely missed. I believe you talk about Turvarsi Sheck 2038 01:38:49,347 --> 01:38:53,507 Speaker 38: condesting a catch. Look what Buried did the whole game. 2039 01:38:53,707 --> 01:38:55,827 Speaker 38: Soon as the ball went up from us, He's just 2040 01:38:56,067 --> 01:38:59,187 Speaker 38: followed that ball. I would have liked to have seen 2041 01:38:59,227 --> 01:39:01,787 Speaker 38: two or three other Warriors doing the same thing. But 2042 01:39:01,907 --> 01:39:04,427 Speaker 38: he achieved a lot by doing that because he kept 2043 01:39:04,467 --> 01:39:09,067 Speaker 38: them under pressure. He's just such a good center, and 2044 01:39:09,187 --> 01:39:12,667 Speaker 38: he's sort of come from a well, sort of a 2045 01:39:12,747 --> 01:39:15,627 Speaker 38: rugby background, I suppose. I don't believe that he's never 2046 01:39:15,667 --> 01:39:18,867 Speaker 38: played rugby league before he came to the Warriors, but 2047 01:39:18,987 --> 01:39:22,627 Speaker 38: he's such a good player. He looks everybody says how 2048 01:39:22,707 --> 01:39:26,987 Speaker 38: strong he is. He doesn't look like he's overly big guy. 2049 01:39:28,667 --> 01:39:32,427 Speaker 38: He's obviously one of these wiry characters. But my goodness me, 2050 01:39:32,587 --> 01:39:35,907 Speaker 38: can he play and can he defend? And it was 2051 01:39:35,987 --> 01:39:40,027 Speaker 38: such an authoritative display yesterday by the Warriors, particularly the 2052 01:39:40,107 --> 01:39:44,147 Speaker 38: first Haarriff. They literally controlled that game for sixty five minutes, 2053 01:39:44,307 --> 01:39:47,867 Speaker 38: and I mean controlled it, and they just kept a 2054 01:39:47,987 --> 01:39:50,187 Speaker 38: team that's supposed to be their bogie team that just 2055 01:39:50,267 --> 01:39:52,987 Speaker 38: kept them quiet. I think it was a great display. 2056 01:39:53,547 --> 01:39:55,987 Speaker 3: And a great summary from you, Ellen. I've got nothing 2057 01:39:55,987 --> 01:39:59,107 Speaker 3: to add. I agree about Chanelle Harris Devita. You know 2058 01:39:59,187 --> 01:40:01,147 Speaker 3: the fact that he found Pompy with that past, but 2059 01:40:01,187 --> 01:40:03,227 Speaker 3: also it was his kick. It was his kick that 2060 01:40:03,307 --> 01:40:05,187 Speaker 3: he put up, and you can see how delighted he 2061 01:40:05,307 --> 01:40:07,667 Speaker 3: was afterwards. And yea rocket, Harry. I know they've had 2062 01:40:08,067 --> 01:40:10,547 Speaker 3: players out and there are still players out metcalf and 2063 01:40:11,307 --> 01:40:14,467 Speaker 3: and you know Jackson Ford's now out for a week while, 2064 01:40:16,347 --> 01:40:20,027 Speaker 3: and you know they've they've really missed some players in 2065 01:40:20,067 --> 01:40:23,947 Speaker 3: this team, Mitch Barnett obviously, but Roccoberrett. They just look 2066 01:40:23,987 --> 01:40:26,307 Speaker 3: so much better with Roco out there, don't they so 2067 01:40:26,467 --> 01:40:30,267 Speaker 3: much better? Thanks? Ellen, appreciate your call very much. Hello, Greg. 2068 01:40:31,547 --> 01:40:32,707 Speaker 9: After Nion Jason. 2069 01:40:35,867 --> 01:40:40,947 Speaker 3: H gotch a deep in take of breath before before 2070 01:40:40,987 --> 01:40:42,227 Speaker 3: you made your point there. 2071 01:40:42,147 --> 01:40:45,707 Speaker 9: Greg, Well, I might be going to sound a little 2072 01:40:45,747 --> 01:40:49,867 Speaker 9: bit negative this afternoon, but the team they were playing 2073 01:40:50,147 --> 01:40:55,427 Speaker 9: are the bottom of the ladder. Now, the expectation from 2074 01:40:55,627 --> 01:40:58,987 Speaker 9: anybody who has a team that are in the top 2075 01:40:59,107 --> 01:41:03,027 Speaker 9: four would be that they would walk all over the 2076 01:41:03,107 --> 01:41:06,267 Speaker 9: bottom place team. And I know that the Titans are 2077 01:41:06,507 --> 01:41:12,067 Speaker 9: our bogie team. But for all the good that the 2078 01:41:12,147 --> 01:41:16,707 Speaker 9: Warriors did yesterday, there was those two tries at the 2079 01:41:16,827 --> 01:41:19,547 Speaker 9: end of the game which they left in, which you 2080 01:41:19,627 --> 01:41:24,547 Speaker 9: should never do if you're any team, basically, but top 2081 01:41:24,627 --> 01:41:29,467 Speaker 9: fourteen versus bottom team, that should never have happened. Now, 2082 01:41:29,467 --> 01:41:31,987 Speaker 9: I'm going to make a statement that it is not 2083 01:41:32,187 --> 01:41:36,667 Speaker 9: our year. And the reason why I say that is 2084 01:41:36,867 --> 01:41:40,747 Speaker 9: I watch the two games on Friday night and I 2085 01:41:40,987 --> 01:41:45,627 Speaker 9: feel that the Warriors are just not in those four 2086 01:41:45,707 --> 01:41:52,587 Speaker 9: teams ballpart. Those four teams are so professional, they have 2087 01:41:52,947 --> 01:41:57,907 Speaker 9: everything worked out to the letter, and I don't think 2088 01:41:58,027 --> 01:42:02,547 Speaker 9: that the Warriors are at there that level yet. I 2089 01:42:02,667 --> 01:42:06,587 Speaker 9: think maybe given one or two years time, with all 2090 01:42:06,627 --> 01:42:08,547 Speaker 9: the young guys that are coming through, and we all 2091 01:42:09,347 --> 01:42:12,267 Speaker 9: do go on about you know, the young talent that's coming. Well, 2092 01:42:12,707 --> 01:42:17,547 Speaker 9: yeah it's coming, but it's not there yet. So yeah, 2093 01:42:17,587 --> 01:42:20,067 Speaker 9: that's my cup and tape any worth for today. 2094 01:42:20,267 --> 01:42:21,747 Speaker 3: Now, Greg, I like it. I just want to ask 2095 01:42:21,787 --> 01:42:24,267 Speaker 3: a couple of questions. I think I don't think you'll 2096 01:42:24,267 --> 01:42:26,547 Speaker 3: get an argument from anybody listening. I think you look 2097 01:42:26,587 --> 01:42:28,467 Speaker 3: at the you look at the table, or you look 2098 01:42:28,467 --> 01:42:32,947 Speaker 3: at the teams and Raiders, Storm, Bulldogs, Panthers, the teams 2099 01:42:32,987 --> 01:42:35,107 Speaker 3: that you mentioned there who played on Friday night, I 2100 01:42:35,147 --> 01:42:37,467 Speaker 3: think you're right there are they are there are a 2101 01:42:37,507 --> 01:42:40,467 Speaker 3: cut above. The rest. Fact of the matter is though 2102 01:42:40,507 --> 01:42:43,387 Speaker 3: that if the Worries when the last two games, you 2103 01:42:43,467 --> 01:42:45,387 Speaker 3: know they'll be in the top four, and one of 2104 01:42:45,427 --> 01:42:47,907 Speaker 3: those teams won't be probably the Panthers. The other part 2105 01:42:47,947 --> 01:42:50,987 Speaker 3: about it is that, yeah, you're betting the Titans. It 2106 01:42:50,987 --> 01:42:53,707 Speaker 3: shouldn't be, you know, sung from the rooftops because they 2107 01:42:53,747 --> 01:42:55,667 Speaker 3: are bottom. But then I watched the Eels play the 2108 01:42:55,747 --> 01:42:58,227 Speaker 3: Roosters last night. He's the Roosters, you know, knocking around 2109 01:42:58,227 --> 01:43:00,187 Speaker 3: the top eight, and the Eels did a job on them. 2110 01:43:02,667 --> 01:43:05,107 Speaker 9: Yeah, the Roosters aren't the team that they were either. 2111 01:43:05,627 --> 01:43:09,027 Speaker 9: You know, they're in a in a rebuilding phase and 2112 01:43:09,147 --> 01:43:12,147 Speaker 9: all teams go through it. We've been rebuilding for for 2113 01:43:12,187 --> 01:43:15,867 Speaker 9: a few years, and I still think there's a few 2114 01:43:15,947 --> 01:43:19,707 Speaker 9: more years tool we actually have a squad that can 2115 01:43:19,827 --> 01:43:24,907 Speaker 9: put it with the best. I really think that the 2116 01:43:24,987 --> 01:43:27,547 Speaker 9: Warriors at the moment are actually a mid table team 2117 01:43:27,947 --> 01:43:30,667 Speaker 9: and are to a point lucky to be in the 2118 01:43:30,747 --> 01:43:31,187 Speaker 9: top four. 2119 01:43:33,307 --> 01:43:36,147 Speaker 3: Good level measured stuff from you, Greg. Look forward to 2120 01:43:36,187 --> 01:43:38,627 Speaker 3: chatting again as the playoffs get closer. I feel as 2121 01:43:38,667 --> 01:43:41,387 Speaker 3: they will beat their Eels at home on Friday, the 2122 01:43:41,467 --> 01:43:43,627 Speaker 3: Sea Eagles away. You just don't ever know, do you. 2123 01:43:44,027 --> 01:43:46,227 Speaker 3: With the Seagules they put fifty odd nearly sixty on 2124 01:43:46,307 --> 01:43:49,907 Speaker 3: the Dolphins last night. Still I think are in the mix. 2125 01:43:49,987 --> 01:43:52,387 Speaker 3: Somen'd they the Sea Eagles can still make the top eight. Yeah, 2126 01:43:52,387 --> 01:43:54,467 Speaker 3: they can. They're in two points behind the Roosters, so 2127 01:43:55,187 --> 01:43:57,147 Speaker 3: it may well be that they're playing for their top 2128 01:43:57,187 --> 01:43:59,707 Speaker 3: eight lives when we go there in a couple of 2129 01:43:59,747 --> 01:44:02,347 Speaker 3: weeks plus, it'll be daily Cherry Evans final game for 2130 01:44:02,427 --> 01:44:04,667 Speaker 3: the Sea Eagles, so there'll be a motion wrapped around 2131 01:44:04,667 --> 01:44:07,667 Speaker 3: it there as well as last done this last home game, 2132 01:44:07,747 --> 01:44:13,427 Speaker 3: potentially spending what happens in the finals. I still think, yes, 2133 01:44:14,227 --> 01:44:17,027 Speaker 3: having it in their hands I think does bring with 2134 01:44:17,187 --> 01:44:22,707 Speaker 3: it a high degree of motivation, and Greg, you're absolutely right. 2135 01:44:23,427 --> 01:44:26,067 Speaker 3: Anyone who's watched the NRL, and I know you've watched 2136 01:44:26,107 --> 01:44:29,827 Speaker 3: it extremely closely this year can see the quality and 2137 01:44:29,907 --> 01:44:33,307 Speaker 3: the Raiders and the Storm and the Bulldogs and the Panthers, 2138 01:44:33,347 --> 01:44:35,827 Speaker 3: those four sides who went hammer and tongs at one 2139 01:44:35,867 --> 01:44:41,147 Speaker 3: another the other night. But all the Warriors can do 2140 01:44:41,307 --> 01:44:47,067 Speaker 3: is be there and hopefully hopefully find something extra come 2141 01:44:47,147 --> 01:44:50,307 Speaker 3: finals time. Just to explain the finals, we shouldn't assume 2142 01:44:50,347 --> 01:44:53,707 Speaker 3: that everybody knows what happens and why finishing the top 2143 01:44:53,747 --> 01:44:56,867 Speaker 3: four is so important. The way the finals in the 2144 01:44:56,987 --> 01:45:01,387 Speaker 3: NRL are structured is that they split effectively into top 2145 01:45:01,467 --> 01:45:04,707 Speaker 3: four and then the teams five through eight, and the 2146 01:45:04,787 --> 01:45:09,027 Speaker 3: teams five through eight play elimination games five v eight 2147 01:45:09,187 --> 01:45:13,187 Speaker 3: and six v seven. The losers can start thinking about 2148 01:45:13,227 --> 01:45:18,507 Speaker 3: Mad Monday, they're out. The winners progress meantime one plays 2149 01:45:18,627 --> 01:45:22,947 Speaker 3: four and two plays three. The losers of those games 2150 01:45:22,987 --> 01:45:26,667 Speaker 3: get another crack and it's a game at home against 2151 01:45:26,707 --> 01:45:29,547 Speaker 3: the winners who come through from the bottom eight. So 2152 01:45:29,627 --> 01:45:31,387 Speaker 3: it does a couple of things. Finishing the top four. 2153 01:45:31,507 --> 01:45:35,467 Speaker 3: It guarantees you at least one home final and it 2154 01:45:35,547 --> 01:45:38,267 Speaker 3: gives you a second life. That's why it's so important. 2155 01:45:38,627 --> 01:45:41,307 Speaker 3: One twenty seven, Lyle, please hold made. I know you've 2156 01:45:41,307 --> 01:45:42,987 Speaker 3: been there a while. Get to you in just a moment. 2157 01:45:43,387 --> 01:45:44,947 Speaker 3: I eight hundred and eighty ten eighty. We can talk 2158 01:45:44,987 --> 01:45:47,187 Speaker 3: worries for the next fifteen minutes or so plenty to 2159 01:45:47,307 --> 01:45:49,147 Speaker 3: unpack back in a moment. 2160 01:45:49,827 --> 01:45:51,667 Speaker 2: It's more than just a game. 2161 01:45:52,027 --> 01:45:57,107 Speaker 1: Weekends for it with Jason Yne and TJ Gunnomes, New Zealand's. 2162 01:45:56,707 --> 01:45:58,907 Speaker 2: Most trusted home builder, news talks, they'd. 2163 01:45:58,747 --> 01:46:01,587 Speaker 3: Be news talks. There'll be one thirty Thanks folding, Lyle. 2164 01:46:01,627 --> 01:46:04,067 Speaker 3: Good afternoon, good mate. 2165 01:46:04,147 --> 01:46:08,027 Speaker 37: Look the tribe came to town Droves yesterday. I made 2166 01:46:08,067 --> 01:46:10,907 Speaker 37: of mind text me this morning instead. It took them 2167 01:46:10,947 --> 01:46:13,307 Speaker 37: two hours to be able to get onto a train 2168 01:46:13,387 --> 01:46:18,427 Speaker 37: to go home to Brisbane. Logan a logan up for 2169 01:46:18,467 --> 01:46:22,147 Speaker 37: a Coumra Pimpermar would have all been empty. They were there. 2170 01:46:22,187 --> 01:46:24,227 Speaker 37: It was a hell of a racket they made. Even 2171 01:46:24,307 --> 01:46:27,947 Speaker 37: with the TV turn down. The Harves impressed me the 2172 01:46:28,067 --> 01:46:30,627 Speaker 37: first sixty seconds that we were too flesh, but they 2173 01:46:30,707 --> 01:46:36,587 Speaker 37: managed to regain their composure. Look, yet number four sides 2174 01:46:36,587 --> 01:46:40,027 Speaker 37: should always beat a number sixteen or seventeen side easy. 2175 01:46:40,107 --> 01:46:42,107 Speaker 37: But the competition is a little bit different. You know, 2176 01:46:42,227 --> 01:46:45,267 Speaker 37: over the last few weeks we've had bottom sides beat 2177 01:46:45,347 --> 01:46:48,387 Speaker 37: top sides, so just to sort of say, oh no, 2178 01:46:48,467 --> 01:46:51,427 Speaker 37: you should always beat a little bit harsh. And the 2179 01:46:51,507 --> 01:46:55,427 Speaker 37: Titans are a side that can strike from anywhere, you know. 2180 01:46:55,787 --> 01:46:59,667 Speaker 37: So I think twenty twenty seven is probably going to 2181 01:46:59,707 --> 01:47:01,747 Speaker 37: be there year. I don't see it happening this year. 2182 01:47:01,827 --> 01:47:04,587 Speaker 37: The two games on Friday night were you know, several 2183 01:47:04,707 --> 01:47:07,587 Speaker 37: runners up of what the Warriors can we produce even 2184 01:47:07,627 --> 01:47:11,067 Speaker 37: on a good day. But look, I watched that other 2185 01:47:11,187 --> 01:47:13,667 Speaker 37: game this morning. Good god, you get a yellow card 2186 01:47:13,787 --> 01:47:17,667 Speaker 37: for farting in Union, don't you. I mean, the wonder 2187 01:47:17,787 --> 01:47:20,587 Speaker 37: people are turning away from the game. The good Father 2188 01:47:20,587 --> 01:47:21,827 Speaker 37: will be rolling in his grave. 2189 01:47:23,467 --> 01:47:26,787 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's very different, different old game, lyle, different old game. 2190 01:47:27,027 --> 01:47:29,827 Speaker 3: But yeah, I was so impressed with the crowd there 2191 01:47:29,907 --> 01:47:31,307 Speaker 3: last night. I know a lot of Keywis live on 2192 01:47:31,347 --> 01:47:33,627 Speaker 3: the Gold Coast and in Brisbane. My niece's over there 2193 01:47:33,667 --> 01:47:36,067 Speaker 3: and she went to the game, sent some photos and 2194 01:47:36,227 --> 01:47:40,387 Speaker 3: looked amazing. Then the Titans should be much better than 2195 01:47:40,427 --> 01:47:44,027 Speaker 3: they are. Even the commentators were saying that last night, 2196 01:47:44,067 --> 01:47:46,507 Speaker 3: you look at the when they do attack, and I 2197 01:47:46,587 --> 01:47:48,507 Speaker 3: think they were making the point that when at the 2198 01:47:48,667 --> 01:47:51,907 Speaker 3: end they did score those those tries, those two tries 2199 01:47:51,987 --> 01:47:55,067 Speaker 3: near the end, by which stage the game had gone, 2200 01:47:55,747 --> 01:48:00,667 Speaker 3: it must have been infuriating for old Dezzy Hasler, the coach, 2201 01:48:00,747 --> 01:48:03,347 Speaker 3: and their fan base that they can't put it together. 2202 01:48:03,867 --> 01:48:05,987 Speaker 3: I mean, they are rock bottom, but when they do 2203 01:48:06,067 --> 01:48:07,827 Speaker 3: put it, get it, they're you know, they're a good 2204 01:48:07,827 --> 01:48:10,547 Speaker 3: attacking team. Just good to see the Warriors beat them 2205 01:48:10,947 --> 01:48:13,987 Speaker 3: after some of the trials and tribulations of recent years. 2206 01:48:14,027 --> 01:48:16,427 Speaker 3: Thanks loll appreciate it. Hey Bevan, how are you, mate? 2207 01:48:17,827 --> 01:48:18,067 Speaker 8: Jeff? 2208 01:48:19,107 --> 01:48:22,107 Speaker 30: Yeah, I don't quite understand why the Titans are the 2209 01:48:22,347 --> 01:48:26,667 Speaker 30: bogey team. I don't. I can't remember the last time 2210 01:48:26,707 --> 01:48:29,307 Speaker 30: the Warriors beat Storm and I think Storm of their 2211 01:48:29,347 --> 01:48:31,387 Speaker 30: bagey teams storm fashion every time. 2212 01:48:31,987 --> 01:48:32,187 Speaker 18: Yeah. 2213 01:48:32,307 --> 01:48:34,227 Speaker 3: I guess the difference with the Stormers that they just 2214 01:48:34,307 --> 01:48:36,307 Speaker 3: they beat just about everybody, don't they. I think. 2215 01:48:36,427 --> 01:48:36,587 Speaker 18: Yeah. 2216 01:48:36,627 --> 01:48:38,427 Speaker 3: The bogey with the with the Gold Coast Titans is 2217 01:48:38,467 --> 01:48:40,787 Speaker 3: that it's inexplicable, it's unexplainable. 2218 01:48:42,427 --> 01:48:45,387 Speaker 30: Yeah right, But I mean that still hasn't changed the 2219 01:48:45,467 --> 01:48:46,987 Speaker 30: fact that if they want to go all the way, 2220 01:48:47,027 --> 01:48:49,027 Speaker 30: they're going to have to get over the Storm, and 2221 01:48:50,787 --> 01:48:53,947 Speaker 30: they're a scary team. I mean, Balamie is just yeah, 2222 01:48:54,187 --> 01:48:56,267 Speaker 30: I think it's going to be a Storm Panther's final 2223 01:48:56,747 --> 01:48:58,147 Speaker 30: actually sorry Storm Raiders. 2224 01:48:58,787 --> 01:49:01,867 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I watched the Raiders the other night 2225 01:49:01,907 --> 01:49:03,507 Speaker 3: and just the way I know, I know that, you know, 2226 01:49:03,587 --> 01:49:05,947 Speaker 3: Nathan Cleary probably nine times out of ten, you know, 2227 01:49:06,427 --> 01:49:08,467 Speaker 3: puts that between the posts rather than hits the post. 2228 01:49:08,547 --> 01:49:10,347 Speaker 3: But yeah, I just like the way the Raiders have 2229 01:49:10,427 --> 01:49:12,667 Speaker 3: gone about things this year. I know that, you know that, 2230 01:49:12,827 --> 01:49:15,027 Speaker 3: you know how proud they are of their rugby league 2231 01:49:15,067 --> 01:49:17,027 Speaker 3: teams in Canberra, And yeah. 2232 01:49:18,267 --> 01:49:22,187 Speaker 30: Yeah, I mean Ricky Stewart, he wears his heart on 2233 01:49:22,267 --> 01:49:25,827 Speaker 30: his sleeve, but he's such a you know, he's like 2234 01:49:25,947 --> 01:49:28,587 Speaker 30: mal Maninger, right, He's a true and true Raiders. His 2235 01:49:28,707 --> 01:49:31,987 Speaker 30: blood's green and and you know, I kind of he's 2236 01:49:32,067 --> 01:49:35,547 Speaker 30: been through a bit of a bad patch with them. 2237 01:49:35,747 --> 01:49:39,067 Speaker 30: But it's good to see the Raiders back. I mean yeah, 2238 01:49:39,067 --> 01:49:40,707 Speaker 30: I mean I want the Storm to go, but I 2239 01:49:40,787 --> 01:49:42,467 Speaker 30: mean yeah, I think the Storm are going to find 2240 01:49:42,507 --> 01:49:45,987 Speaker 30: it really hard to get past that. There's some there's 2241 01:49:46,027 --> 01:49:47,827 Speaker 30: some super talent in that top four. 2242 01:49:48,507 --> 01:49:50,667 Speaker 3: Yeah, it feels like Raiders Storm to me. I don't 2243 01:49:50,667 --> 01:49:54,027 Speaker 3: know that that's not necessarily very bold claim. When you 2244 01:49:54,067 --> 01:49:57,027 Speaker 3: look at the table, it just feels like that's what 2245 01:49:57,107 --> 01:49:59,867 Speaker 3: we're headed for. Just like you know, whenever Penrith have 2246 01:49:59,987 --> 01:50:02,307 Speaker 3: been in and around the top two last couple of seasons, 2247 01:50:02,307 --> 01:50:04,787 Speaker 3: you almost feel like they're destined for the Grand Final, 2248 01:50:04,827 --> 01:50:08,627 Speaker 3: and they have been. And I may still have a say, Kevin, 2249 01:50:08,667 --> 01:50:10,267 Speaker 3: you know, I think if there was a one off 2250 01:50:10,307 --> 01:50:12,867 Speaker 3: game between the Panthers and the Warriors, I think favoritism 2251 01:50:12,907 --> 01:50:14,747 Speaker 3: would land in the lap of the Panthers, wouldn't it. 2252 01:50:14,747 --> 01:50:16,547 Speaker 3: But you know, Warrior's got to get there first and 2253 01:50:16,787 --> 01:50:17,787 Speaker 3: we'll see what happens from there. 2254 01:50:17,827 --> 01:50:21,907 Speaker 30: Eh, Yeah, totally, Yeah, I mean, and I think, you know, 2255 01:50:22,027 --> 01:50:23,947 Speaker 30: as we've sort of said, you know, if you would 2256 01:50:23,947 --> 01:50:28,107 Speaker 30: have taken top four for the Warriors, you would have 2257 01:50:28,187 --> 01:50:30,227 Speaker 30: taken it every day of the week. So you know, 2258 01:50:30,587 --> 01:50:32,987 Speaker 30: let's just see where they go, you know, let's just 2259 01:50:33,027 --> 01:50:36,907 Speaker 30: see how far they can go. Anything can happen. Thanks Jay, 2260 01:50:37,427 --> 01:50:37,827 Speaker 30: good on you be. 2261 01:50:37,907 --> 01:50:39,427 Speaker 3: I've always good to chat mate. Thanks for taking the 2262 01:50:39,467 --> 01:50:40,787 Speaker 3: time to call. Frank High. 2263 01:50:42,587 --> 01:50:46,467 Speaker 20: Yeah, Hi, Piney, I haven't been I've had an eye 2264 01:50:46,507 --> 01:50:49,227 Speaker 20: off for the last months and so so I haven't 2265 01:50:49,267 --> 01:50:53,987 Speaker 20: been a happy chappie, but very happy last night. At 2266 01:50:53,987 --> 01:50:56,827 Speaker 20: the beginning of the season, if they'd have said, look, 2267 01:50:57,147 --> 01:50:59,747 Speaker 20: we're two games to play Warriors will be in the 2268 01:50:59,827 --> 01:51:02,467 Speaker 20: top four, I think we'd have taken that. You know, 2269 01:51:02,747 --> 01:51:06,707 Speaker 20: it's just we're going to be playing the Eels next week. 2270 01:51:07,467 --> 01:51:10,827 Speaker 20: I think that we need a good game now to 2271 01:51:11,627 --> 01:51:15,067 Speaker 20: just sharpen us up. I know this Josh what's his 2272 01:51:15,227 --> 01:51:20,067 Speaker 20: name ade Okr and the Mitchell Moses that the two guys, 2273 01:51:20,107 --> 01:51:22,827 Speaker 20: and that Eels team that I'm a bit frightened of, 2274 01:51:22,947 --> 01:51:26,867 Speaker 20: But I do think we need now a team like 2275 01:51:26,987 --> 01:51:31,267 Speaker 20: the Eels too, if we can get past them. Okay, 2276 01:51:32,267 --> 01:51:34,707 Speaker 20: I don't think we're gonna We're not quite the standard 2277 01:51:34,787 --> 01:51:37,027 Speaker 20: of the Raiders, We're not quite the standard of the Storm, 2278 01:51:37,107 --> 01:51:42,507 Speaker 20: but if we get to play them, well, as long 2279 01:51:42,547 --> 01:51:46,187 Speaker 20: as we can lose, well, I know that sounds oxymolon, 2280 01:51:46,267 --> 01:51:50,187 Speaker 20: but but yeah, I just feel that we've done pretty 2281 01:51:50,227 --> 01:51:54,947 Speaker 20: well considering we've had so many injuries, and I just 2282 01:51:55,107 --> 01:51:58,107 Speaker 20: feel for the boys. I just I just love that team, 2283 01:51:58,187 --> 01:52:01,467 Speaker 20: and I think great they've done. They've done well, and 2284 01:52:01,587 --> 01:52:04,947 Speaker 20: I still think there's still a little hope there that 2285 01:52:05,067 --> 01:52:07,667 Speaker 20: we could just stir a bit even better. 2286 01:52:08,587 --> 01:52:12,387 Speaker 3: Frank, absolutely, and yeah, I love this team as well. 2287 01:52:12,507 --> 01:52:15,667 Speaker 3: I love watching them play. And you know, the fact is, 2288 01:52:15,707 --> 01:52:17,827 Speaker 3: as you say, after last year when they were thirteenth, 2289 01:52:18,347 --> 01:52:20,867 Speaker 3: wo'd buy your hand off the top eight. They were fourth, 2290 01:52:20,907 --> 01:52:23,067 Speaker 3: of course two years ago went on to lose in 2291 01:52:23,107 --> 01:52:25,667 Speaker 3: that preliminary final. But before that you've got to go 2292 01:52:25,747 --> 01:52:28,627 Speaker 3: a long way back before you find the Warriors in 2293 01:52:28,707 --> 01:52:30,067 Speaker 3: the top four. In fact, youve got to go back 2294 01:52:30,107 --> 01:52:33,147 Speaker 3: to two thousand and seven and here we are in 2295 01:52:33,227 --> 01:52:35,067 Speaker 3: the situation where they could be in the top four 2296 01:52:35,147 --> 01:52:38,307 Speaker 3: twice in three years. So yeah, and as you say, 2297 01:52:38,547 --> 01:52:40,907 Speaker 3: funny things happen in sport. You know who knows what 2298 01:52:41,027 --> 01:52:44,987 Speaker 3: happens when playoff football comes around? You just you just 2299 01:52:45,147 --> 01:52:45,507 Speaker 3: never know. 2300 01:52:47,627 --> 01:52:49,467 Speaker 20: Yep, thanks poney, yep, yep. 2301 01:52:49,547 --> 01:52:51,827 Speaker 3: No, good on your Frank. Enjoy chatting to you as always, mate, 2302 01:52:52,027 --> 01:52:56,827 Speaker 3: Stay well, hi, James, get how we going? Bonny good James, 2303 01:52:56,907 --> 01:52:58,227 Speaker 3: good good? 2304 01:52:58,547 --> 01:52:58,707 Speaker 16: Yeah. 2305 01:52:58,747 --> 01:53:00,027 Speaker 25: I could get the winter last night. 2306 01:53:00,307 --> 01:53:01,547 Speaker 34: But again it was. 2307 01:53:03,067 --> 01:53:07,067 Speaker 25: Frustrating at times, and one thing was the worry all year. 2308 01:53:07,827 --> 01:53:10,987 Speaker 25: I feel as they've really been struggling to hang on 2309 01:53:11,147 --> 01:53:15,467 Speaker 25: to momentum in games. They get up a couple of tries, 2310 01:53:15,947 --> 01:53:18,547 Speaker 25: they look to me going well, one or two things 2311 01:53:18,587 --> 01:53:20,667 Speaker 25: will go against them, and then they just lose the 2312 01:53:20,747 --> 01:53:25,027 Speaker 25: momentum and they just continuously let the opposition back into 2313 01:53:25,067 --> 01:53:28,707 Speaker 25: the game. And it's just been really frustrating all season. 2314 01:53:30,707 --> 01:53:33,107 Speaker 3: What's the fix on that, James, What is the Because 2315 01:53:33,467 --> 01:53:35,707 Speaker 3: you're right, I'm finding myself nodding my head. I can 2316 01:53:35,827 --> 01:53:38,107 Speaker 3: think of more than one occasion where, you know, the 2317 01:53:38,147 --> 01:53:40,267 Speaker 3: Warrior's got a couple of tries, right, we're on our way, 2318 01:53:40,307 --> 01:53:42,267 Speaker 3: and then all of a sudden it's level again or 2319 01:53:42,307 --> 01:53:44,347 Speaker 3: whatever it is. And even though last night, you know, 2320 01:53:44,467 --> 01:53:47,667 Speaker 3: those two late tries didn't actually affect the result, it's 2321 01:53:47,667 --> 01:53:49,907 Speaker 3: still you know, you'd still preferred You're still preferred to 2322 01:53:49,907 --> 01:53:52,827 Speaker 3: when thirty two six, wouldn't you, you know exactly? 2323 01:53:53,067 --> 01:53:55,627 Speaker 25: Yeah, Yeah, I don't know. Maybe it's a mental thing, 2324 01:53:56,267 --> 01:53:58,707 Speaker 25: or you know, once once they get one or two 2325 01:53:58,747 --> 01:54:01,227 Speaker 25: penalties against them, they just they just seem to really 2326 01:54:01,347 --> 01:54:04,227 Speaker 25: struggle with keeping the foot on the throat. And just 2327 01:54:04,867 --> 01:54:07,387 Speaker 25: because last night it looked like they can easily pile 2328 01:54:07,827 --> 01:54:10,067 Speaker 25: twenty points on that Titan steam and they should have. 2329 01:54:10,107 --> 01:54:11,707 Speaker 25: They should just keep going and going and going. 2330 01:54:11,827 --> 01:54:13,467 Speaker 7: But I don't know what it is. 2331 01:54:13,587 --> 01:54:16,507 Speaker 25: They just let the foot off the throat and the 2332 01:54:16,587 --> 01:54:18,427 Speaker 25: other team gets back into it, and it just seems 2333 01:54:18,467 --> 01:54:19,267 Speaker 25: to happen every week. 2334 01:54:19,907 --> 01:54:22,427 Speaker 3: And I thought exactly the same thing when when Roger 2335 01:54:22,507 --> 01:54:26,347 Speaker 3: got his second try and what we're we're head then 2336 01:54:26,547 --> 01:54:29,707 Speaker 3: eighteen six and we'd only had twenty minutes. I thought, right, 2337 01:54:29,787 --> 01:54:31,507 Speaker 3: this is going to be you know, we're going to 2338 01:54:31,547 --> 01:54:33,587 Speaker 3: get We're going to put you know, forty five fifty 2339 01:54:33,667 --> 01:54:37,067 Speaker 3: on these blokes. But then it took and then yeah, 2340 01:54:37,147 --> 01:54:38,587 Speaker 3: and then but then it took ages, didn't it for 2341 01:54:38,627 --> 01:54:40,707 Speaker 3: there to be another try. I think the next try 2342 01:54:40,827 --> 01:54:43,307 Speaker 3: was on the hour mark when Pompey scored. So there 2343 01:54:43,347 --> 01:54:46,027 Speaker 3: was that period between sort of twenty minutes and sixty 2344 01:54:46,067 --> 01:54:47,827 Speaker 3: minutes where you know, there's a lot of hulf and 2345 01:54:47,907 --> 01:54:49,107 Speaker 3: puff but not a lot of outcome. 2346 01:54:49,187 --> 01:54:51,867 Speaker 25: Really, Yeah, it's like they go after the boil and 2347 01:54:51,947 --> 01:54:52,747 Speaker 25: I don't know why. 2348 01:54:53,507 --> 01:54:56,227 Speaker 3: Yeah, Oh well, as long as look just before you 2349 01:54:56,347 --> 01:55:00,227 Speaker 3: go eels Sea Eagles, so Eels at home, Sea Eagles away. 2350 01:55:00,267 --> 01:55:02,547 Speaker 3: I don't think that's I feel like that's a pretty 2351 01:55:02,587 --> 01:55:06,467 Speaker 3: good kind of lead into to play off foot. A 2352 01:55:06,507 --> 01:55:08,467 Speaker 3: couple of wins there and then you you know, top 2353 01:55:08,547 --> 01:55:10,787 Speaker 3: four and then you know who knows. 2354 01:55:10,667 --> 01:55:13,907 Speaker 25: Ye, Yeah, well, they both had pretty good wines yesterday, 2355 01:55:14,027 --> 01:55:17,907 Speaker 25: so correct, yep. I'd say we should probably play well 2356 01:55:17,947 --> 01:55:20,467 Speaker 25: against the Eels at home next week and then anything 2357 01:55:20,507 --> 01:55:21,547 Speaker 25: can happen over and Manly. 2358 01:55:22,787 --> 01:55:25,747 Speaker 3: That's right, good yet to you, James.

It's a 2362 01:55:33,667 --> 01:55:36,507 Speaker 3: bit of a bit of a short a shortish turnaround. 2363 01:55:36,547 --> 01:55:40,267 Speaker 3: I guess you'd say one less day than they perhaps 2364 01:55:40,267 --> 01:55:43,227 Speaker 3: would normally have the Saturday to the Friday, Friday night 2365 01:55:43,347 --> 01:55:47,467 Speaker 3: eight o'clock Eels. Massive game already, isn't It seems like 2366 01:55:47,507 --> 01:55:50,347 Speaker 3: every game is at the moment.

Like I said, I think 2369 01:55:58,787 --> 01:56:00,507 Speaker 3: that's quite a I think that's quite a good lead 2370 01:56:00,587 --> 01:56:02,387 Speaker 3: in to finals football. 2371 01:56:02,467 --> 01:56:02,587 Speaker 24: You know. 2372 01:56:02,867 --> 01:56:04,707 Speaker 3: I feel like if the Warriors can, can you know, 2373 01:56:04,787 --> 01:56:06,667 Speaker 3: win at home on Friday, which I think think they 2374 01:56:07,747 --> 01:56:09,307 Speaker 3: certainly can and I think they will, and then go 2375 01:56:09,387 --> 01:56:11,467 Speaker 3: to Manly and win, They're all of a sudden you're 2376 01:56:11,507 --> 01:56:13,307 Speaker 3: going into finals off the back of four straight wins 2377 01:56:14,027 --> 01:56:16,907 Speaker 3: and momentum. You know, I think some people believe in it, 2378 01:56:16,987 --> 01:56:19,107 Speaker 3: some people don't believe in it. But I think I'd 2379 01:56:19,187 --> 01:56:23,707 Speaker 3: rather go into the finals, you know, charging rather than stumbling. 2380 01:56:24,907 --> 01:56:27,107 Speaker 3: Thanks for all your causing feedback on the Warriors. Much 2381 01:56:27,147 --> 01:56:30,867 Speaker 3: appreciate it. Jason. Are you going to highlight Auckland f 2382 01:56:30,947 --> 01:56:33,147 Speaker 3: C's one overnight? Says this text?

Is Taranaki losing the shield, It's always why 2387 01:56:45,587 --> 01:56:47,947 Speaker 3: Kadow taking it off, as we should have taken the 2388 01:56:47,987 --> 01:56:50,427 Speaker 3: shot to make it twenty five twenty hard to take 2389 01:56:50,547 --> 01:56:53,987 Speaker 3: up the nak. Yeah we're going to talk Renfilly shield 2390 01:56:54,027 --> 01:56:57,467 Speaker 3: after two, but yeah, that game did turn on that 2391 01:56:57,587 --> 01:57:01,987 Speaker 3: moment late on they're what were they head twenty two 2392 01:57:02,107 --> 01:57:05,947 Speaker 3: twenty Josh Jacob instead of taking the shot a goal 2393 01:57:05,987 --> 01:57:09,387 Speaker 3: and with it it was his decision or the leadership team. 2394 01:57:10,147 --> 01:57:12,307 Speaker 3: They kicked for the line and he's kicked it dead. 2395 01:57:12,867 --> 01:57:14,707 Speaker 3: He must wake up this morning, Josh Jacomb and think man, 2396 01:57:14,707 --> 01:57:16,787 Speaker 3: I wish I had that one back down the other end. 2397 01:57:16,827 --> 01:57:20,627 Speaker 3: Why can't I get a penalty? Len Us Opewanga lands it? 2398 01:57:20,707 --> 01:57:23,387 Speaker 3: And here we are with why cufter in possession of 2399 01:57:23,387 --> 01:57:25,707 Speaker 3: the shield.

Hey, let's talk some rugby Championship All 2415 01:58:18,707 --> 01:58:21,507 Speaker 3: Blacks Argentina Historic day for the Permis. You've got to 2416 01:58:21,547 --> 01:58:22,387 Speaker 3: be happy for them, don't you. 2417 01:58:23,307 --> 01:58:26,187 Speaker 16: Yeah, I'm I'm a big Pumis fan actually, and in fact, 2418 01:58:26,267 --> 01:58:30,467 Speaker 16: my favorite player, Thomas Albert Albornos got injured off really 2419 01:58:30,547 --> 01:58:33,427 Speaker 16: early in the game, clearly broke his hand, playing with 2420 01:58:33,827 --> 01:58:36,507 Speaker 16: tears in his eyes by the looks of things, and 2421 01:58:37,067 --> 01:58:40,587 Speaker 16: they still won. So I actually think the way that 2422 01:58:40,907 --> 01:58:44,307 Speaker 16: they played, though, was exceptional and wasn't a good seeing 2423 01:58:44,467 --> 01:58:47,587 Speaker 16: a team from set face play run a strike move 2424 01:58:48,027 --> 01:58:52,147 Speaker 16: with about three or five crazy wild passes, wide ones 2425 01:58:52,187 --> 01:58:55,067 Speaker 16: as well, you know, massive like I was. I was 2426 01:58:55,147 --> 01:58:57,627 Speaker 16: just going, this is actually what I want to see 2427 01:58:57,707 --> 01:59:02,187 Speaker 16: it instead of even though they can keep it tight Argentina, 2428 01:59:02,907 --> 01:59:04,307 Speaker 16: they flung it around and I loved it. 2429 01:59:04,787 --> 01:59:07,587 Speaker 3: I did. Two. Should we be worried about the All 2430 01:59:07,667 --> 01:59:12,627 Speaker 3: Blacks with South Africa in coming in a fortnight Yeah? 2431 01:59:12,747 --> 01:59:15,707 Speaker 16: Yeah, always. I think the South Africans have shown that 2432 01:59:15,787 --> 01:59:18,187 Speaker 16: they they can grind this down in a game, but 2433 01:59:18,747 --> 01:59:21,307 Speaker 16: I think the All Blacks at full strength will be 2434 01:59:22,067 --> 01:59:25,547 Speaker 16: pretty formidable. I just think that for this particular test, 2435 01:59:25,667 --> 01:59:28,307 Speaker 16: there were a few hospital passes, and one was the selections. 2436 01:59:29,547 --> 01:59:32,667 Speaker 16: I thought, Simon Parker, you know, having to start at 2437 01:59:32,747 --> 01:59:35,027 Speaker 16: number eight in his very first Test, when he's played 2438 01:59:35,187 --> 01:59:38,507 Speaker 16: mainly number six for most of the year and also 2439 01:59:38,787 --> 01:59:42,307 Speaker 16: hasn't really played that much rugby recently. I thought that's 2440 01:59:42,347 --> 01:59:46,347 Speaker 16: a really big ask for him. And also see Josh Lord, 2441 01:59:46,387 --> 01:59:48,947 Speaker 16: who I mean, I'm a Chiefs fan. I have hardly 2442 01:59:49,027 --> 01:59:51,747 Speaker 16: seen Josh Lord play for the past three years. I 2443 01:59:51,827 --> 01:59:55,107 Speaker 16: think he's played three games in twenty twenty three, three 2444 01:59:55,187 --> 01:59:57,427 Speaker 16: games last year. I mean sorry, six games in twenty 2445 01:59:57,467 --> 02:00:00,147 Speaker 16: twenty three. Six games last year and this year I'd 2446 02:00:00,147 --> 02:00:03,787 Speaker 16: say be around about the same, if not less. And 2447 02:00:03,907 --> 02:00:06,547 Speaker 16: in one of those games he started and when off 2448 02:00:06,627 --> 02:00:09,587 Speaker 16: after ten minutes. So it's not exactly a really good 2449 02:00:09,667 --> 02:00:12,467 Speaker 16: runway to play test rugby. When you see someone like 2450 02:00:12,627 --> 02:00:16,667 Speaker 16: Sam Darry out there playing MPC. I mean, I just 2451 02:00:16,747 --> 02:00:20,547 Speaker 16: thought maybe that could they could look at something like that. 2452 02:00:20,667 --> 02:00:21,347 Speaker 16: The selections. 2453 02:00:21,827 --> 02:00:24,107 Speaker 3: I'll tell you the guy they need back is Cam Roygad. 2454 02:00:25,907 --> 02:00:29,027 Speaker 3: They honestly, I just don't know. I think having him 2455 02:00:29,067 --> 02:00:31,267 Speaker 3: back gives you a massive boost. I don't know what 2456 02:00:31,347 --> 02:00:33,787 Speaker 3: the latest does. Jason Holland didn't know when we spoke 2457 02:00:33,787 --> 02:00:36,627 Speaker 3: to him a couple of hours ago. I just hope 2458 02:00:36,667 --> 02:00:39,267 Speaker 3: Cam Roygads fit for those games well. 2459 02:00:39,387 --> 02:00:42,587 Speaker 16: Also the other thing is number seven. Okay, so Doc, 2460 02:00:42,867 --> 02:00:44,867 Speaker 16: if he started the last two tests at number seven, 2461 02:00:44,907 --> 02:00:47,107 Speaker 16: I thought we're talking about him. Last week. I thought 2462 02:00:47,147 --> 02:00:49,307 Speaker 16: he did really well. Okay, if you wanted to rest 2463 02:00:49,387 --> 02:00:51,867 Speaker 16: him and give other people a chance in their jersey, 2464 02:00:51,907 --> 02:00:54,067 Speaker 16: you've obviously got a you know, Hall of Famer and 2465 02:00:54,347 --> 02:00:57,107 Speaker 16: Ardie Savia there. But what is Peter Larky doing if 2466 02:00:57,107 --> 02:01:00,827 Speaker 16: he's been selected. I know Luke Jacobson is recovering from 2467 02:01:00,827 --> 02:01:03,427 Speaker 16: an injury because remember when they picked the squad, they 2468 02:01:03,467 --> 02:01:05,867 Speaker 16: had a few guys who were who were that were 2469 02:01:05,947 --> 02:01:09,987 Speaker 16: covering for injuries. But then like I played almost an 2470 02:01:10,107 --> 02:01:14,187 Speaker 16: entire Test against France last year in Paris and was exceptional. 2471 02:01:14,307 --> 02:01:16,747 Speaker 16: So you know, there are guys who've got the track 2472 02:01:16,827 --> 02:01:19,787 Speaker 16: record at test rugby who I think it's worth exploring 2473 02:01:19,867 --> 02:01:22,427 Speaker 16: and going for big, tall timber. When you looked at 2474 02:01:22,467 --> 02:01:26,627 Speaker 16: the way chocoba Is played his timing at second five, 2475 02:01:26,707 --> 02:01:28,867 Speaker 16: I men he plays for Toulouse in France. He plays 2476 02:01:29,147 --> 02:01:33,027 Speaker 16: elite rugby most of the time, and he was exceptional today. 2477 02:01:33,067 --> 02:01:35,907 Speaker 16: And just noticing that we only had one loose forward 2478 02:01:35,947 --> 02:01:37,707 Speaker 16: who you could say is a bit of a flyer, 2479 02:01:37,827 --> 02:01:41,067 Speaker 16: and that's already doing that kind of role on his own, 2480 02:01:41,707 --> 02:01:44,907 Speaker 16: just to me that the flow on effect was Argentina 2481 02:01:44,987 --> 02:01:49,507 Speaker 16: got uninterrupted ball. Where were our spoilers while sitting in 2482 02:01:49,667 --> 02:01:50,627 Speaker 16: blazers in the stand? 2483 02:01:51,067 --> 02:01:54,787 Speaker 3: Yeah, honestly I said before and it's not new, but 2484 02:01:54,987 --> 02:01:57,787 Speaker 3: a big part of coaching is selection. So that twenty 2485 02:01:57,867 --> 02:01:59,987 Speaker 3: three for South Africa at Eden Park is going to 2486 02:02:00,027 --> 02:02:02,907 Speaker 3: be so fascinating to see what they do, what twigs 2487 02:02:02,907 --> 02:02:05,907 Speaker 3: they make, who they can bring back. Yeah, it's a 2488 02:02:06,107 --> 02:02:11,187 Speaker 3: very interesting proposition. Hey, Warriors, I was just. 2489 02:02:11,187 --> 02:02:14,227 Speaker 16: Going to say one one last thing. Scott Barrett is 2490 02:02:14,387 --> 02:02:16,987 Speaker 16: clearly fighting to get back in to form and I 2491 02:02:17,067 --> 02:02:19,187 Speaker 16: think we rely on him a little bit too much 2492 02:02:19,267 --> 02:02:22,347 Speaker 16: to start and play and he can't be He's it's 2493 02:02:22,387 --> 02:02:25,227 Speaker 16: impossible to give him time because Patrick Tupole or two 2494 02:02:25,307 --> 02:02:28,107 Speaker 16: is injured. But Scott Barrett at his best as absolute 2495 02:02:28,147 --> 02:02:30,547 Speaker 16: world class and he did some amazing things today. But 2496 02:02:30,627 --> 02:02:32,627 Speaker 16: you can tell he's still fighting to get back into 2497 02:02:32,707 --> 02:02:34,987 Speaker 16: form and he shouldn't have to do that in pivotal 2498 02:02:35,067 --> 02:02:36,947 Speaker 16: test matches, if you know what I mean. But it's just, 2499 02:02:37,787 --> 02:02:40,147 Speaker 16: you know, it's like we have to even though he's 2500 02:02:40,147 --> 02:02:41,907 Speaker 16: still struggling for that fitness and form. 2501 02:02:42,267 --> 02:02:43,747 Speaker 3: Well, We're out of time now, aren't we. We're out 2502 02:02:43,787 --> 02:02:45,707 Speaker 3: of time. There's no more games. Yeah, you know, so 2503 02:02:46,547 --> 02:02:51,427 Speaker 3: he kind of yeah, if you don't, Yeah, exactly right. Hey, 2504 02:02:51,467 --> 02:02:53,547 Speaker 3: Warry is one last night, So the Gold Coast Titans 2505 02:02:53,587 --> 02:02:55,427 Speaker 3: are no longer a bogey team for us. 2506 02:02:57,027 --> 02:02:58,987 Speaker 16: I know, how good was that? But also, I mean, 2507 02:02:59,067 --> 02:03:00,867 Speaker 16: the story of the day, and I think your callers 2508 02:03:00,907 --> 02:03:03,627 Speaker 16: have identified it really well was rodded to as seck 2509 02:03:04,267 --> 02:03:08,467 Speaker 16: so two of the forty five running meters eighty six 2510 02:03:08,627 --> 02:03:12,587 Speaker 16: post contact meters. I mean, it's just exceptional stuff from Roger. 2511 02:03:13,107 --> 02:03:15,387 Speaker 16: But I did run into him earlier on in the 2512 02:03:15,467 --> 02:03:18,227 Speaker 16: year when he was in at Sky and I asked 2513 02:03:18,267 --> 02:03:20,867 Speaker 16: him about where he wanted to play and where he 2514 02:03:21,027 --> 02:03:23,147 Speaker 16: was happy to play, and he told me that he 2515 02:03:23,187 --> 02:03:25,347 Speaker 16: said to where he'd just give me a position and 2516 02:03:25,507 --> 02:03:27,187 Speaker 16: tell me that's where I'm going to play, and I'll 2517 02:03:27,227 --> 02:03:29,907 Speaker 16: be happy and I'll try and nail that role. That's 2518 02:03:29,987 --> 02:03:32,507 Speaker 16: all he wanted. He wasn't buying into any of that 2519 02:03:32,667 --> 02:03:35,467 Speaker 16: fullback chat at all. He just said, tell me where 2520 02:03:36,387 --> 02:03:38,347 Speaker 16: you want me to play, And when he found out 2521 02:03:38,387 --> 02:03:40,947 Speaker 16: it was the wing, he said, sweet, happy with that. 2522 02:03:41,187 --> 02:03:43,187 Speaker 16: And of course you hear him when He was interviewed 2523 02:03:43,227 --> 02:03:45,707 Speaker 16: last night talking about the pride of that left edge 2524 02:03:46,227 --> 02:03:49,867 Speaker 16: with Chanelle, Harris de Vitas and you know Lequer and others. 2525 02:03:50,307 --> 02:03:53,027 Speaker 16: You know, just what they've done all year.

Yeah, I think, yeah, 2742 02:15:07,507 --> 02:15:08,947 Speaker 27: I think we've got to be optimistic about it. And 2743 02:15:09,067 --> 02:15:09,867 Speaker 27: we did it last time. 2744 02:15:09,987 --> 02:15:10,827 Speaker 8: So yeah. 2745 02:15:10,947 --> 02:15:14,787 Speaker 3: So just the four official tests for the Black Ferns 2746 02:15:14,947 --> 02:15:16,987 Speaker 3: in twenty twenty five, in that game against the New 2747 02:15:17,067 --> 02:15:20,067 Speaker 3: Zealand fifteen, is that sufficient build up or would they 2748 02:15:20,067 --> 02:15:20,867 Speaker 3: have liked a bit more? 2749 02:15:21,827 --> 02:15:24,067 Speaker 27: No, I think the build up's been, you know, being fine, 2750 02:15:24,107 --> 02:15:26,987 Speaker 27: and I've obviously done stuff with their camps and whatnot, 2751 02:15:26,987 --> 02:15:28,907 Speaker 27: and they've worked towards what they need and need to do. 2752 02:15:29,067 --> 02:15:30,467 Speaker 27: I mean, it's always good if you can get as 2753 02:15:30,507 --> 02:15:33,387 Speaker 27: many games as you can, but just just been able 2754 02:15:33,427 --> 02:15:36,187 Speaker 27: to play, you know, I'll back that they've done enough 2755 02:15:36,227 --> 02:15:37,987 Speaker 27: and it's probably no different to any other World Cup 2756 02:15:38,027 --> 02:15:38,667 Speaker 27: prip that we've had. 2757 02:15:39,027 --> 02:15:41,307 Speaker 3: Let's have a look at the New Zealand squad. The 2758 02:15:41,347 --> 02:15:44,707 Speaker 3: outside backs and this team are so exciting. Renee Holmes, 2759 02:15:44,787 --> 02:15:49,267 Speaker 3: Asha Lettieinger, Braxton Sorenson McGee, Caitlin Carlo and of course 2760 02:15:49,307 --> 02:15:52,987 Speaker 3: Porscha Woodman Woodcliffe. How much of New Zealand's strategy will 2761 02:15:53,027 --> 02:15:55,707 Speaker 3: be about getting the ball wide to such dangerous players 2762 02:15:55,827 --> 02:15:56,027 Speaker 3: like that. 2763 02:15:57,067 --> 02:15:59,267 Speaker 24: Well, I think that's probably how a New Zealand player, right. 2764 02:15:59,347 --> 02:16:01,587 Speaker 27: We've played a lot of expensive footy, and I know 2765 02:16:01,667 --> 02:16:03,387 Speaker 27: that we wouldn't have exposed a lot of our game 2766 02:16:03,427 --> 02:16:07,187 Speaker 27: plans throughout the game's previous to Worldcar and there will 2767 02:16:07,227 --> 02:16:09,067 Speaker 27: happily a few kind of tricks up the sleeve. But 2768 02:16:09,547 --> 02:16:11,227 Speaker 27: I think you know, when you've got a players on 2769 02:16:11,307 --> 02:16:13,467 Speaker 27: the art size like that, that can light it up 2770 02:16:13,507 --> 02:16:15,267 Speaker 27: and at the same time, people are going to think 2771 02:16:15,267 --> 02:16:16,947 Speaker 27: that we're probably going to do that. So it might 2772 02:16:17,027 --> 02:16:20,027 Speaker 27: be an opportunity to use our quality midfielders with you know, 2773 02:16:20,147 --> 02:16:23,027 Speaker 27: Sylvia Stacey and Theresa set to find it, Amy du Forsu. 2774 02:16:23,107 --> 02:16:25,627 Speaker 27: We've got some quality midfielders as well that would be 2775 02:16:25,667 --> 02:16:28,347 Speaker 27: obviously to you know, take up in the middle if 2776 02:16:28,387 --> 02:16:29,667 Speaker 27: we need to, and then we've got a great board 2777 02:16:29,707 --> 02:16:30,987 Speaker 27: pack to do the same thing to. 2778 02:16:31,067 --> 02:16:34,307 Speaker 3: Your old position. Kendra halfback. All three half backs off 2779 02:16:34,347 --> 02:16:37,347 Speaker 3: to their first Rugby World Cup at a tana Hire Maya, 2780 02:16:37,467 --> 02:16:40,747 Speaker 3: Joseph Rissiliana PODi Lane. How do you evaluate the half 2781 02:16:40,787 --> 02:16:41,827 Speaker 3: back strength in the squad? 2782 02:16:42,507 --> 02:16:44,427 Speaker 24: Oh, we go back the girls. You know they're telling 2783 02:16:44,707 --> 02:16:45,507 Speaker 24: the town to athlete. 2784 02:16:45,507 --> 02:16:47,507 Speaker 27: You've got someone like Resa who's you know, done pinna 2785 02:16:47,507 --> 02:16:50,747 Speaker 27: cool events before the World Cup, but been to Commonwealth 2786 02:16:50,787 --> 02:16:53,187 Speaker 27: and Olympics and you know that kind of experience is great. 2787 02:16:53,227 --> 02:16:55,107 Speaker 27: The other two, you know, they don't think it will 2788 02:16:55,147 --> 02:16:58,227 Speaker 27: FaZe them. The quality of players. The cool thing about 2789 02:16:58,227 --> 02:17:00,147 Speaker 27: these three half packs is they all offer something slightly 2790 02:17:00,227 --> 02:17:02,427 Speaker 27: different with the whether the way they want to play. 2791 02:17:03,027 --> 02:17:05,467 Speaker 27: I don't think anyone's necessarily They haven't cemented the number 2792 02:17:05,507 --> 02:17:07,747 Speaker 27: nine jersy yet. I think it will come down to 2793 02:17:07,827 --> 02:17:10,387 Speaker 27: how the team probably wants to play and what the 2794 02:17:10,467 --> 02:17:11,507 Speaker 27: game plan is for each game. 2795 02:17:11,907 --> 02:17:14,627 Speaker 3: And with the first fives, only two named in the 2796 02:17:14,667 --> 02:17:17,467 Speaker 3: squad hete Dedmont of course and Kelly Brazier, who we 2797 02:17:17,507 --> 02:17:21,307 Speaker 3: know is hugely experienced, but before playing against Australia this year, 2798 02:17:21,427 --> 02:17:24,907 Speaker 3: she hadn't played a test since November twenty twenty one. 2799 02:17:25,587 --> 02:17:27,787 Speaker 3: Are we a little bit light? If something were to 2800 02:17:27,907 --> 02:17:29,827 Speaker 3: happen to Ute Dumont. 2801 02:17:30,787 --> 02:17:32,427 Speaker 24: I think would be I think would be able to be. 2802 02:17:32,507 --> 02:17:34,707 Speaker 27: Okay, We've probably got Renee Holmes, I think should be 2803 02:17:34,747 --> 02:17:37,467 Speaker 27: someone that could probably cover ten as well. 2804 02:17:37,907 --> 02:17:39,387 Speaker 24: So you've got that covered there, and we know that 2805 02:17:39,467 --> 02:17:40,947 Speaker 24: she's a talented. 2806 02:17:40,667 --> 02:17:43,107 Speaker 27: Player too, so I think, you know, you know, you 2807 02:17:43,187 --> 02:17:45,027 Speaker 27: never want to bank any injuries if someone gets into 2808 02:17:45,067 --> 02:17:47,147 Speaker 27: someone potentially get called up to. But we obviously got 2809 02:17:47,187 --> 02:17:49,307 Speaker 27: Kelly who's got the hell of a lot of experience 2810 02:17:49,387 --> 02:17:51,627 Speaker 27: and can distribute and kick well, which the team you 2811 02:17:51,867 --> 02:17:52,587 Speaker 27: may need as well. 2812 02:17:52,987 --> 02:17:55,947 Speaker 3: At the other end of the experience scale, the hugely 2813 02:17:56,107 --> 02:17:58,867 Speaker 3: exciting Georgia Miller, who of course has come across from 2814 02:17:59,027 --> 02:18:02,387 Speaker 3: the seven's program, but that trice he's scored against Australia 2815 02:18:02,467 --> 02:18:05,347 Speaker 3: and Wellington just a glimpse of what she is capable of. 2816 02:18:05,827 --> 02:18:08,907 Speaker 3: What are you predict for Georgia Miller at this World Cup? 2817 02:18:10,387 --> 02:18:13,307 Speaker 27: I predict that she's probably potentially could be, you know, 2818 02:18:13,507 --> 02:18:15,627 Speaker 27: end up being that player of the of the tournament. 2819 02:18:16,307 --> 02:18:18,107 Speaker 24: You know, you call that nice and early. She's a freak. 2820 02:18:18,467 --> 02:18:19,627 Speaker 24: She makes regularly look easy. 2821 02:18:20,267 --> 02:18:22,387 Speaker 27: I think she'll you know, she'll embrace it, and I 2822 02:18:22,467 --> 02:18:24,187 Speaker 27: think she'll have a great, a great World Cup and 2823 02:18:24,227 --> 02:18:26,387 Speaker 27: she'll have another breakout season in their first you know 2824 02:18:26,507 --> 02:18:27,387 Speaker 27: fifteen's World Cup. 2825 02:18:27,787 --> 02:18:30,707 Speaker 3: So to the schedule, Paul playing New Hill, play Spain first, 2826 02:18:30,707 --> 02:18:34,067 Speaker 3: then Japan, then Ireland, which will be their toughest Paul match. 2827 02:18:34,147 --> 02:18:37,147 Speaker 3: Do you think Alan Bunting and his selectors will use 2828 02:18:37,187 --> 02:18:38,947 Speaker 3: the first two games to come up with their strongest 2829 02:18:39,027 --> 02:18:40,747 Speaker 3: side for the third game and then Ireland to the 2830 02:18:40,827 --> 02:18:41,547 Speaker 3: knockout face. 2831 02:18:42,787 --> 02:18:44,707 Speaker 27: I think what they'll do is that that first game, 2832 02:18:45,067 --> 02:18:47,507 Speaker 27: I believe that they'll still give people an opportunity to 2833 02:18:47,867 --> 02:18:49,787 Speaker 27: get some good game time under their bout and then 2834 02:18:49,867 --> 02:18:53,987 Speaker 27: probably leading into Japan and in Ireland obviously by Ireland, 2835 02:18:53,987 --> 02:18:55,547 Speaker 27: you probably want to have your top teams, so you 2836 02:18:55,627 --> 02:18:57,347 Speaker 27: probably want them to be playing some good game time 2837 02:18:57,747 --> 02:19:00,107 Speaker 27: together in that Japan game as well. 2838 02:19:00,187 --> 02:19:01,867 Speaker 24: I don't think they've done that already this year. 2839 02:19:02,747 --> 02:19:05,707 Speaker 27: They've kind of, you know, they've moved around the squad 2840 02:19:05,707 --> 02:19:07,667 Speaker 27: a lot, so they probably need to start cementing a 2841 02:19:07,747 --> 02:19:10,667 Speaker 27: top A top fifteen as early as possible within the 2842 02:19:10,707 --> 02:19:11,147 Speaker 27: World Cup. 2843 02:19:11,507 --> 02:19:15,187 Speaker 3: Apart from England, obviously, the hosts and world number one? 2844 02:19:15,467 --> 02:19:17,627 Speaker 3: Who are the other big threats to New Zealand at 2845 02:19:17,667 --> 02:19:18,307 Speaker 3: this World Cup? 2846 02:19:18,747 --> 02:19:21,067 Speaker 27: I think our biggest threat for thinking about New Zealand's 2847 02:19:21,067 --> 02:19:23,067 Speaker 27: I think currently is Canada. I feel like they're a 2848 02:19:23,107 --> 02:19:25,547 Speaker 27: bit of a bogie team for us, and you know, 2849 02:19:25,627 --> 02:19:27,547 Speaker 27: the last couple of years you're drawing and a loss, 2850 02:19:27,667 --> 02:19:29,187 Speaker 27: So I think, you know, we're going to potentially come 2851 02:19:29,227 --> 02:19:31,227 Speaker 27: up against them in the semi final, and you know, 2852 02:19:31,307 --> 02:19:33,627 Speaker 27: if all goes well and Anythingland, you know, goes well 2853 02:19:33,667 --> 02:19:35,787 Speaker 27: for England France, they'll be in the other one. So 2854 02:19:36,267 --> 02:19:38,427 Speaker 27: I think that's probably going to be the biggest, biggest one. 2855 02:19:38,467 --> 02:19:40,627 Speaker 27: And then if you know, Ireland's another one that's been 2856 02:19:41,307 --> 02:19:43,867 Speaker 27: you know they're coming up silently, you know as well, 2857 02:19:43,907 --> 02:19:45,347 Speaker 27: and you know we've got to play them in Paul 2858 02:19:45,347 --> 02:19:46,787 Speaker 27: play and you know you kind of want to top 2859 02:19:46,827 --> 02:19:49,187 Speaker 27: your top your pool to make you make sure you 2860 02:19:49,267 --> 02:19:50,947 Speaker 27: get that better semi final. 2861 02:19:51,107 --> 02:19:55,267 Speaker 3: And you yourself Kendra three Rugby World Cup wins, but 2862 02:19:55,427 --> 02:19:58,027 Speaker 3: that last one, man, what I not it was? How 2863 02:19:58,107 --> 02:20:00,347 Speaker 3: often do you think back to that last Rugby World 2864 02:20:00,347 --> 02:20:02,507 Speaker 3: Cup final? The win over England eed in part November 2865 02:20:02,507 --> 02:20:04,787 Speaker 3: twenty twenty two turned out to be your last test 2866 02:20:04,867 --> 02:20:07,547 Speaker 3: for New Zealand and one of the most memorable nights 2867 02:20:08,027 --> 02:20:09,027 Speaker 3: in our sporting history. 2868 02:20:10,267 --> 02:20:12,987 Speaker 27: Yeah, it definitely does mean that. Obviously, we've been World 2869 02:20:13,027 --> 02:20:15,547 Speaker 27: Cup year. I mean I've been doing a lot of speaking, 2870 02:20:15,707 --> 02:20:17,627 Speaker 27: you know, speaking things and stuff, and everyone kind of 2871 02:20:17,667 --> 02:20:19,467 Speaker 27: talks about it, and I just love I love talking 2872 02:20:19,507 --> 02:20:21,427 Speaker 27: about it. I love throwing myself back into that World 2873 02:20:21,427 --> 02:20:24,227 Speaker 27: Cup and you know, going through that experience all again 2874 02:20:24,307 --> 02:20:26,347 Speaker 27: and it was something pretty incredible. And I think we've 2875 02:20:26,387 --> 02:20:29,707 Speaker 27: got an opportunity again, you know, to make something for 2876 02:20:29,827 --> 02:20:30,787 Speaker 27: this one and do it again. 2877 02:20:30,987 --> 02:20:33,267 Speaker 3: Absolutely all right, So to circle back to finish as 2878 02:20:33,267 --> 02:20:35,347 Speaker 3: we still cup on the coffee and get ready to 2879 02:20:35,467 --> 02:20:38,027 Speaker 3: chair the Black fans on from twelve thousand miles away. 2880 02:20:38,547 --> 02:20:40,267 Speaker 3: You feel like we should do so with a sense 2881 02:20:40,307 --> 02:20:40,907 Speaker 3: of confidence. 2882 02:20:41,427 --> 02:20:42,747 Speaker 27: Yeah, I think the team's got what it takes. I 2883 02:20:42,787 --> 02:20:44,227 Speaker 27: think we've got the players to be able to do it. 2884 02:20:44,267 --> 02:20:47,347 Speaker 27: I think we should definitely be optimistic. You never know 2885 02:20:47,467 --> 02:20:49,067 Speaker 27: that you've got a bit of an upholl about playing 2886 02:20:49,147 --> 02:20:51,787 Speaker 27: a quality team like England. Highly I mean, you know, 2887 02:20:51,827 --> 02:20:53,387 Speaker 27: we're saying that we're already talking about the final, but 2888 02:20:53,427 --> 02:20:54,587 Speaker 27: there's a lot of games that's going to go on 2889 02:20:54,707 --> 02:20:57,107 Speaker 27: before that, you know, but playing a team at home, 2890 02:20:57,187 --> 02:20:58,627 Speaker 27: you know, we had that and we had that crowd 2891 02:20:58,667 --> 02:21:00,747 Speaker 27: and what that gives you in their boost, that gives you. 2892 02:21:01,307 --> 02:21:03,107 Speaker 27: So if it is in England and New Zealand final, 2893 02:21:03,187 --> 02:21:05,387 Speaker 27: you know, I still I still want to be optimistic. 2894 02:21:05,707 --> 02:21:07,187 Speaker 24: You know, we did it last time and I believe 2895 02:21:07,187 --> 02:21:07,987 Speaker 24: that they can do it again. 2896 02:21:08,147 --> 02:21:10,587 Speaker 3: All right, and exciting few weeks ahead, Kendra, thanks so 2897 02:21:10,667 --> 02:21:13,387 Speaker 3: much for joining us on weekend Sport. Can't wait to 2898 02:21:13,387 --> 02:21:15,067 Speaker 3: see how it all plays out at the Rugby World Cup. 2899 02:21:15,067 --> 02:21:17,307 Speaker 3: Thanks for your time, nor thank you. See you lader, 2900 02:21:17,307 --> 02:21:20,187 Speaker 3: see a load of Kendra Kendrack cox Edge there a 2901 02:21:20,267 --> 02:21:22,547 Speaker 3: member of the broadcast team, so you'll hear her voice, 2902 02:21:22,627 --> 02:21:24,667 Speaker 3: no doubt coming back from the other side of the 2903 02:21:24,747 --> 02:21:27,267 Speaker 3: world when the Black Ferns get under way. So tomorrow 2904 02:21:27,347 --> 02:21:29,667 Speaker 3: morning is when they have their first game. They take 2905 02:21:29,747 --> 02:21:35,547 Speaker 3: on Spain in York the Line of Community Stadium in York, 2906 02:21:35,907 --> 02:21:37,827 Speaker 3: four point thirty tomorrow morning. Look, this should be the 2907 02:21:37,947 --> 02:21:40,427 Speaker 3: easiest of the three Paul games, and I think the 2908 02:21:40,507 --> 02:21:43,387 Speaker 3: team that Alan Bunting has named for this one has 2909 02:21:43,387 --> 02:21:46,827 Speaker 3: certainly got the look about it of giving a few 2910 02:21:46,867 --> 02:21:51,147 Speaker 3: players a game certainly nowhere near their top side. You 2911 02:21:51,227 --> 02:21:53,707 Speaker 3: look at the players who are on the bench and 2912 02:21:53,907 --> 02:21:57,307 Speaker 3: you findever Hey Dumont there on the bench, the co captain, 2913 02:21:57,347 --> 02:22:01,107 Speaker 3: Porscha Woodman Whickcliffe, and the reserves as well, Georgia Ponsonby. 2914 02:22:01,187 --> 02:22:03,547 Speaker 3: You know, those are three players who probably are in 2915 02:22:03,587 --> 02:22:07,067 Speaker 3: the strongest fifteen but won't play against Spain. So that's 2916 02:22:07,227 --> 02:22:10,347 Speaker 3: tomorrow morning. Then next Monday it's Japan. It's a one 2917 02:22:10,387 --> 02:22:12,507 Speaker 3: o'clock in the morning game, and then Ireland on the 2918 02:22:12,587 --> 02:22:14,827 Speaker 3: morning of Monday, September the eighth, that one forty five. 2919 02:22:14,947 --> 02:22:18,027 Speaker 3: So New Zealand should really in theory get through those games, okay, 2920 02:22:18,267 --> 02:22:21,347 Speaker 3: and then they're into quarters, semis and final. That's the 2921 02:22:21,427 --> 02:22:23,507 Speaker 3: business end of this Rugby World Cup. Already, as I 2922 02:22:23,547 --> 02:22:27,427 Speaker 3: mentioned before, some big score lines in this Rugby World Cup, 2923 02:22:27,467 --> 02:22:30,187 Speaker 3: as the as the haves and have knots of women's 2924 02:22:30,267 --> 02:22:34,467 Speaker 3: rugby sort of sort themselves out. England already looking ominous 2925 02:22:34,587 --> 02:22:37,507 Speaker 3: and look, I know you can't predict anything when it 2926 02:22:37,587 --> 02:22:40,627 Speaker 3: comes to World Cups, but it feels as though if 2927 02:22:40,707 --> 02:22:43,067 Speaker 3: New Zealand are to retain that title, then they've got 2928 02:22:43,107 --> 02:22:46,547 Speaker 3: to get past the very very big obstacle that is England. 2929 02:22:47,267 --> 02:22:50,547 Speaker 3: The final at Twickenham already sold out. Eighty two thousand 2930 02:22:50,627 --> 02:22:54,667 Speaker 3: tickets already sold for the final could well be England 2931 02:22:54,707 --> 02:22:56,987 Speaker 3: against New Zealand and a rematch of the last one 2932 02:22:57,387 --> 02:22:59,067 Speaker 3: two twenty two. I want to take it down to 2933 02:23:00,067 --> 02:23:04,507 Speaker 3: Dunedin where Otago are taking on Counties. Manico early kickoff 2934 02:23:04,547 --> 02:23:07,067 Speaker 3: one thirty five. I'm not quite sure why that was County. 2935 02:23:07,067 --> 02:23:09,147 Speaker 3: He's got to get a flight back out anyway. Otago 2936 02:23:09,187 --> 02:23:10,627 Speaker 3: scored the first try on gold Sport. 2937 02:23:11,227 --> 02:23:15,267 Speaker 42: Otago hot on the attack, opened right inside his Gilbert Gilbert. 2938 02:23:14,947 --> 02:23:17,147 Speaker 6: Gilbert almost they're reaching out try. 2939 02:23:17,427 --> 02:23:20,947 Speaker 42: Right outside of the field. Sam Gilbert had three defenders 2940 02:23:21,027 --> 02:23:23,787 Speaker 42: round him, muscled his way up to the line, reached out, 2941 02:23:23,867 --> 02:23:27,467 Speaker 42: placed the ball and Otago go up five mil seven. 2942 02:23:27,227 --> 02:23:29,707 Speaker 3: And a half gone, but Counties bound straight back. 2943 02:23:29,827 --> 02:23:32,747 Speaker 42: The restart from Counties down inside the Otago twenty two 2944 02:23:33,267 --> 02:23:37,267 Speaker 42: four by Naick Charts by Simon Peter Thorley a fire 2945 02:23:37,587 --> 02:23:39,507 Speaker 42: and Counties hit straight back. 2946 02:23:39,547 --> 02:23:42,507 Speaker 3: And so it was seven five to Counties. But then 2947 02:23:42,787 --> 02:23:44,507 Speaker 3: Otago got themselves back into gear. 2948 02:23:44,747 --> 02:23:48,387 Speaker 42: Opened right inside Leo Willie out the back Miller Nanicki 2949 02:23:48,667 --> 02:23:52,387 Speaker 42: Nanika going close. Brilliant tackle there from Money Money three 2950 02:23:52,467 --> 02:23:54,507 Speaker 42: out from the line little bit missies, but stapped up 2951 02:23:54,547 --> 02:23:57,747 Speaker 42: by Brumfield. Otago still have it two out oh short 2952 02:23:57,907 --> 02:24:00,787 Speaker 42: right inside and Nandick is going to go in. Otago 2953 02:24:00,907 --> 02:24:03,827 Speaker 42: hit back ten seven Keckta Cabina strikes it and has 2954 02:24:03,867 --> 02:24:07,507 Speaker 42: slotted the conversion and Otago back in twelve seven. So 2955 02:24:07,667 --> 02:24:10,147 Speaker 42: twelve seven and then this well going to the front 2956 02:24:10,227 --> 02:24:12,067 Speaker 42: of the line out bring the ball down and they 2957 02:24:12,187 --> 02:24:15,467 Speaker 42: go short side right with Powell again five out from 2958 02:24:15,587 --> 02:24:18,987 Speaker 42: the county's line. Nice little move there, Pleasure open left 2959 02:24:18,987 --> 02:24:22,227 Speaker 42: hand side is bully three out ma ou the other 2960 02:24:22,307 --> 02:24:24,107 Speaker 42: prop four out just in front of the post now 2961 02:24:24,147 --> 02:24:26,947 Speaker 42: opens I left over the line.

They're playing half back. 2968 02:24:42,267 --> 02:24:45,747 Speaker 42: He gives it to Furness. Furness just short, so Tutu's there, 2969 02:24:45,987 --> 02:24:48,347 Speaker 42: looks for the pass, pick and go wrapped up by 2970 02:24:48,427 --> 02:24:51,067 Speaker 42: Otago one meter short.

Can we start 3173 02:34:55,027 --> 02:34:57,107 Speaker 3: in the NBA a couple of major headlines coming out, 3174 02:34:57,427 --> 02:34:59,427 Speaker 3: some mega contracts to tell us about. 3175 02:35:00,627 --> 02:35:03,027 Speaker 8: Yes, even though the NBA is in a sof season, 3176 02:35:03,347 --> 02:35:06,787 Speaker 8: still to discuss the just for clarity, Poney of inverted 3177 02:35:06,827 --> 02:35:09,227 Speaker 8: everything into New Zealand dollars. I love support of their 3178 02:35:09,267 --> 02:35:13,947 Speaker 8: reigning MVP and NBA championsheid Gilgess Alexander from Oklahoma City 3179 02:35:14,027 --> 02:35:17,587 Speaker 8: Thunder recently signed a massive contract Essention for one hundred 3180 02:35:17,587 --> 02:35:20,627 Speaker 8: and twenty three million dollars a year. Not to be outdone, 3181 02:35:20,707 --> 02:35:24,467 Speaker 8: the Phoenix Suns. Only ten days later, resigned all star 3182 02:35:24,667 --> 02:35:28,187 Speaker 8: Devin Booker affectionately known in hard court circles as book 3183 02:35:28,267 --> 02:35:31,427 Speaker 8: or d book to a new two year MAX extension 3184 02:35:31,507 --> 02:35:33,987 Speaker 8: with the princely sum of one hundred and twenty five 3185 02:35:34,027 --> 02:35:37,107 Speaker 8: million dollars annually. So we've got dear friends and Phoenix 3186 02:35:37,147 --> 02:35:39,747 Speaker 8: air quick shout out to the Updike family who often 3187 02:35:39,787 --> 02:35:42,587 Speaker 8: attend home games and they love Devin Booker as the 3188 02:35:42,667 --> 02:35:45,427 Speaker 8: face of the team. He's certainly beloved by the Sun's faithfuls. 3189 02:35:45,467 --> 02:35:47,867 Speaker 8: They they'll be excited that he's locked in for the 3190 02:35:47,907 --> 02:35:49,867 Speaker 8: next couple of years at least. I think it's a 3191 02:35:49,907 --> 02:35:52,507 Speaker 8: fair assumption, Piney, that the rest is hon to see 3192 02:35:52,507 --> 02:35:55,147 Speaker 8: who will be the first player in NBA history to 3193 02:35:55,187 --> 02:35:58,187 Speaker 8: earn eighty two million dollars a staggering one million dollars 3194 02:35:58,227 --> 02:36:01,307 Speaker 8: per regular season game, So that equates to one hundred 3195 02:36:01,307 --> 02:36:04,587 Speaker 8: and forty two million dollars New Zealand yearly. Almost impossible 3196 02:36:04,587 --> 02:36:07,507 Speaker 8: to get our heads around, right. It's not a matter 3197 02:36:07,627 --> 02:36:09,307 Speaker 8: of if, I think, but when that will happen. So 3198 02:36:09,427 --> 02:36:12,267 Speaker 8: much like the NFL, it's almost as if the NBA 3199 02:36:12,387 --> 02:36:14,667 Speaker 8: is printing their own money. Just recently, on your show, 3200 02:36:15,507 --> 02:36:18,827 Speaker 8: Colin Smith mentioned the changes and how televised sports viewing 3201 02:36:18,867 --> 02:36:22,107 Speaker 8: habits have changed and evolved over the last decade and 3202 02:36:22,187 --> 02:36:25,307 Speaker 8: how we consume it. He also mentioned that the NFL 3203 02:36:25,347 --> 02:36:28,667 Speaker 8: and NBA the Outlieres. When we look at viewership the NFL, 3204 02:36:28,827 --> 02:36:32,027 Speaker 8: especially who had ninety of our one hundred most watched 3205 02:36:32,067 --> 02:36:35,627 Speaker 8: TV programs in the US last year, it's crazy and. 3206 02:36:35,747 --> 02:36:38,107 Speaker 3: Day the Lakers. What's going on with the Lakers with 3207 02:36:38,547 --> 02:36:41,627 Speaker 3: Luka Doncic Lebron James. What sort of shape are they 3208 02:36:41,707 --> 02:36:42,467 Speaker 3: in moving forward? 3209 02:36:43,467 --> 02:36:43,987 Speaker 17: Yes, So the. 3210 02:36:44,027 --> 02:36:47,627 Speaker 8: Recent contract extension by the La Lakers for Slovenian superstar 3211 02:36:47,707 --> 02:36:52,427 Speaker 8: Luca Doncish was notable because Lebron James was absent at 3212 02:36:52,467 --> 02:36:55,147 Speaker 8: the press conference. Now, in the past, he's been in 3213 02:36:55,227 --> 02:36:59,627 Speaker 8: attendance when starkey players have signed a new deal, and 3214 02:36:59,747 --> 02:37:03,307 Speaker 8: this speculation that Lebron's no show was intentional by the 3215 02:37:03,387 --> 02:37:05,467 Speaker 8: front office to show that they've taken back control of 3216 02:37:05,547 --> 02:37:09,027 Speaker 8: the team. Just a side note, Piney, Lebron was actually 3217 02:37:09,107 --> 02:37:11,467 Speaker 8: playing golf that day, so read into it what sort 3218 02:37:11,507 --> 02:37:14,707 Speaker 8: of message they were seeing to the new owners. That aside, 3219 02:37:15,027 --> 02:37:17,267 Speaker 8: Luca is now seen as the face of the franchise 3220 02:37:17,347 --> 02:37:19,467 Speaker 8: and the team will be built around him a pursuit 3221 02:37:19,547 --> 02:37:20,227 Speaker 8: of another title. 3222 02:37:20,307 --> 02:37:24,627 Speaker 3: Moving forward, Let's go to baseball, our Major League Baseball. 3223 02:37:24,667 --> 02:37:27,387 Speaker 3: The regular season is winding down ahead of the World Series. 3224 02:37:27,427 --> 02:37:29,947 Speaker 3: So are some of the teams and players leon who 3225 02:37:29,947 --> 02:37:32,267 Speaker 3: are showing out for the playoffs and for the season awards. 3226 02:37:33,387 --> 02:37:35,227 Speaker 8: Yes, so most of your listens will be aware that 3227 02:37:35,667 --> 02:37:37,667 Speaker 8: it's a grueling in one hundred and sixty two game 3228 02:37:37,747 --> 02:37:40,267 Speaker 8: regular season, and there are a number of teams that 3229 02:37:40,387 --> 02:37:43,507 Speaker 8: are genuine contenders heading into October. Let's start. In the 3230 02:37:43,587 --> 02:37:47,187 Speaker 8: American League, the Detroit Tigers leave the conference just ahead 3231 02:37:47,187 --> 02:37:50,787 Speaker 8: of the Toronto Blue Jays, New York Yankees, Houston Astros, 3232 02:37:50,827 --> 02:37:53,267 Speaker 8: and the Boston Red Sox. They round up the top five. 3233 02:37:53,947 --> 02:37:56,227 Speaker 8: In the National League, the top five teams see the 3234 02:37:56,307 --> 02:38:00,827 Speaker 8: Milwaukee Brewers leading the conference, closely followed by the Philadelphia Phillies, 3235 02:38:01,267 --> 02:38:05,307 Speaker 8: Chicago Cubs, LA Dodgers, and the San Diego Padres. Also 3236 02:38:05,467 --> 02:38:08,587 Speaker 8: the National League, the Colorado Rockies are on pace to 3237 02:38:08,747 --> 02:38:11,947 Speaker 8: record a losing season of one hundred plus games. Since 3238 02:38:12,027 --> 02:38:15,467 Speaker 8: nineteen fifty one, ninety one different teams have achieved this 3239 02:38:15,667 --> 02:38:18,507 Speaker 8: ignominious feed. The current record is shared by the nineteen 3240 02:38:18,547 --> 02:38:21,147 Speaker 8: sixty two New York Mets and the two thousand and 3241 02:38:21,227 --> 02:38:23,947 Speaker 8: three Detroit Tigers. Not the sort of record to be 3242 02:38:24,027 --> 02:38:29,347 Speaker 8: proud of, unfortunately, Pining, I know, it's not the sort 3243 02:38:29,387 --> 02:38:31,027 Speaker 8: of record you want to be proud of it and 3244 02:38:31,947 --> 02:38:34,787 Speaker 8: on your record. Also, if we look at individual players 3245 02:38:34,867 --> 02:38:37,907 Speaker 8: making their mark, leaning into the playoffs and pitching in 3246 02:38:38,027 --> 02:38:40,067 Speaker 8: favor to win the prestigious what they call the Cy 3247 02:38:40,227 --> 02:38:43,267 Speaker 8: Young Award, where a minimum ten starts. This season, we 3248 02:38:43,427 --> 02:38:46,707 Speaker 8: have all star all schemes of the Pittsburgh Pirates. At 3249 02:38:46,747 --> 02:38:50,187 Speaker 8: an impressive six foot six, one hundred and eighteen Kielegrams, 3250 02:38:50,667 --> 02:38:54,027 Speaker 8: the twenty twenty three MLB draft number one overall pick, 3251 02:38:54,587 --> 02:38:57,867 Speaker 8: has made sixteen starts this year, giving up only nine 3252 02:38:57,947 --> 02:39:00,907 Speaker 8: home runs, struck out one hundred and seventy four batters, 3253 02:39:01,267 --> 02:39:03,867 Speaker 8: and has the lowest earned run average what we call 3254 02:39:03,907 --> 02:39:07,187 Speaker 8: the ERA in the majors and only has second season. 3255 02:39:07,827 --> 02:39:11,987 Speaker 8: Stan has an incredible career two point zero seven ERA. Piney. 3256 02:39:12,347 --> 02:39:13,987 Speaker 8: I feel in a way that it's only a matter 3257 02:39:14,027 --> 02:39:16,907 Speaker 8: of time of when not left before another the stronger 3258 02:39:16,987 --> 02:39:19,307 Speaker 8: clubs of all that money will entice them away from 3259 02:39:19,347 --> 02:39:22,587 Speaker 8: Pittsburgh for are kings ransom. So we look at the batting. 3260 02:39:22,667 --> 02:39:24,187 Speaker 8: We look at the battest and the guys that are 3261 02:39:24,267 --> 02:39:27,507 Speaker 8: up for the awards. There are three main categories that 3262 02:39:27,587 --> 02:39:30,987 Speaker 8: they consider runners batted in which is called RBI, which 3263 02:39:31,027 --> 02:39:34,027 Speaker 8: is led by Kyle Schwarba. The Philadelphia Phillies with one 3264 02:39:34,107 --> 02:39:37,147 Speaker 8: hundred and nine home runs, Cal Raleigh of the Seattle 3265 02:39:37,227 --> 02:39:40,627 Speaker 8: Mariners with forty seven and New York Yankee Saga Aaron 3266 02:39:40,747 --> 02:39:44,547 Speaker 8: Judge with a betting average around only three point twenty 3267 02:39:44,627 --> 02:39:46,947 Speaker 8: nine so far the season. So one of these three 3268 02:39:46,987 --> 02:39:49,667 Speaker 8: guys will win to cover the MVP Award at season's end. 3269 02:39:51,107 --> 02:39:53,107 Speaker 3: Well, who are the favorites to win the World Series? 3270 02:39:53,187 --> 02:39:54,267 Speaker 3: Just before we move to NFL? 3271 02:39:55,147 --> 02:39:57,547 Speaker 8: YEP, So I've done the heavy lifting here and calculated 3272 02:39:57,587 --> 02:40:00,107 Speaker 8: the latest starts from three of the biggest betting agencies 3273 02:40:00,147 --> 02:40:03,027 Speaker 8: in Las Vegas. The latest betting nods see the World 3274 02:40:03,107 --> 02:40:05,947 Speaker 8: Series champion Dodgers favored to go back to back at 3275 02:40:05,987 --> 02:40:09,707 Speaker 8: plus then a big gap to the Philadelphia Phillies at 3276 02:40:09,747 --> 02:40:13,427 Speaker 8: plus six seventy, the Milwaukee Brewers at plus seventy ten, 3277 02:40:13,907 --> 02:40:16,347 Speaker 8: the Detroit Tigers at plus eight eighty five, and to 3278 02:40:16,467 --> 02:40:18,787 Speaker 8: round out the top five, the New York Yankees at 3279 02:40:18,827 --> 02:40:21,787 Speaker 8: plus ninety five. So basically, what there's numbers tell us 3280 02:40:22,227 --> 02:40:24,827 Speaker 8: is that the Dodgers, as long as they stay relatively healthy, 3281 02:40:25,387 --> 02:40:27,707 Speaker 8: are almost assuring to repeat, and every other team is 3282 02:40:27,747 --> 02:40:29,947 Speaker 8: fighting just to get to the World Series. But as 3283 02:40:29,987 --> 02:40:33,027 Speaker 8: we know, Piney sports. An always started on paper. It's 3284 02:40:33,027 --> 02:40:34,547 Speaker 8: all about he shows up on the day. 3285 02:40:34,947 --> 02:40:37,507 Speaker 3: Hang on, especially in the business end of the season. Right, 3286 02:40:37,587 --> 02:40:40,067 Speaker 3: let's go to the NFL. Are not that far away 3287 02:40:40,227 --> 02:40:44,187 Speaker 3: from getting underway. Final few preseason games and then Round 3288 02:40:44,307 --> 02:40:47,747 Speaker 3: one scheduled for a couple of weekends away. A couple 3289 02:40:47,787 --> 02:40:50,107 Speaker 3: of bits of news here Dallas Cowboys. But a drama 3290 02:40:50,307 --> 02:40:51,387 Speaker 3: at the Dallas Cowboys. 3291 02:40:52,067 --> 02:40:52,747 Speaker 10: Oh, I'll tell you what. 3292 02:40:52,907 --> 02:40:56,347 Speaker 8: The Cowboys they love the drama. So college football officially 3293 02:40:56,467 --> 02:40:58,707 Speaker 8: kicked off earlier today and Dublin Island of all places, 3294 02:40:58,907 --> 02:41:00,907 Speaker 8: so that means the NFL is just around the corner. 3295 02:41:00,987 --> 02:41:03,827 Speaker 8: The biggest story in the league right now is actually 3296 02:41:03,907 --> 02:41:07,067 Speaker 8: something unfolding off the stiel. The Dallas Cowboys in the 3297 02:41:07,187 --> 02:41:10,347 Speaker 8: past often referred to as America's team, and we're recently 3298 02:41:10,467 --> 02:41:12,947 Speaker 8: valued at more than twenty billion New Zealand dollars are 3299 02:41:12,987 --> 02:41:15,027 Speaker 8: in a bit of a standoff right now with their 3300 02:41:15,067 --> 02:41:18,827 Speaker 8: best player, defensive end Michah Parsons, is emboiled in a 3301 02:41:18,907 --> 02:41:22,827 Speaker 8: contract dispute for team owner slash general manager Jerry Jones. 3302 02:41:23,307 --> 02:41:25,667 Speaker 8: The star linebacker is holding out for a long term 3303 02:41:25,747 --> 02:41:29,067 Speaker 8: contract extension, which most are expecting him to eventually get 3304 02:41:29,107 --> 02:41:32,347 Speaker 8: as the highest paid non QB in the league, expected 3305 02:41:32,427 --> 02:41:35,347 Speaker 8: to be somewhere around seventy two to seventy seven million 3306 02:41:35,347 --> 02:41:38,187 Speaker 8: dollars a year. Parsons is an edge Russia and his 3307 02:41:38,427 --> 02:41:41,147 Speaker 8: role is to get out to the opposing quarterback, causing 3308 02:41:41,227 --> 02:41:44,627 Speaker 8: chaos in the backfield. He's one of only five players 3309 02:41:44,627 --> 02:41:47,987 Speaker 8: in NFL history to record twelve or more sacks in 3310 02:41:48,067 --> 02:41:51,467 Speaker 8: his first four seasons. The other four players they're all 3311 02:41:51,507 --> 02:41:53,627 Speaker 8: in the Football Hall of Fame. Now, the problem with 3312 02:41:53,787 --> 02:41:55,707 Speaker 8: Jones as GM is that in the past, by the 3313 02:41:55,827 --> 02:41:58,627 Speaker 8: time he inks then you deal with his star players, 3314 02:41:59,027 --> 02:42:01,067 Speaker 8: it's often too late in the season to back down, 3315 02:42:01,147 --> 02:42:03,267 Speaker 8: and he has to pay in the current market value, 3316 02:42:03,587 --> 02:42:06,467 Speaker 8: which for a shrewd business and makes no sense. Have 3317 02:42:06,547 --> 02:42:08,787 Speaker 8: been pretty much irrelevant on the field for the last 3318 02:42:09,147 --> 02:42:11,907 Speaker 8: thirty years, and they're owning the third best team is 3319 02:42:11,947 --> 02:42:14,787 Speaker 8: in their own division. So this drawn out sager between 3320 02:42:14,867 --> 02:42:17,427 Speaker 8: Jones and Parsons and what now defines a once proud 3321 02:42:17,547 --> 02:42:21,987 Speaker 8: franchise and unfortunately for long suffering Cowboys fans, because their 3322 02:42:22,027 --> 02:42:25,427 Speaker 8: own prefers the attention and unnecessary headlines, the team will 3323 02:42:25,507 --> 02:42:28,107 Speaker 8: continue to underperform and be on the outside looking at 3324 02:42:28,387 --> 02:42:30,147 Speaker 8: when it comes to being part of the narrative as 3325 02:42:30,187 --> 02:42:33,147 Speaker 8: a genuine Super Bowl contender, Aaron. 3326 02:42:32,947 --> 02:42:36,187 Speaker 3: Rodgers is the gift that keeps on giving the Pittsburgh 3327 02:42:36,187 --> 02:42:37,067 Speaker 3: Steelers quarterback. 3328 02:42:37,987 --> 02:42:41,187 Speaker 8: Kind yeah, every time someone talks about Aaron Rodgers, you 3329 02:42:41,227 --> 02:42:43,187 Speaker 8: know there's going to be some sort of drama around it. 3330 02:42:43,307 --> 02:42:45,507 Speaker 8: So if we look at the top three quarterbacks for 3331 02:42:45,587 --> 02:42:49,107 Speaker 8: the highest pass rating in NFL history, the Lamar Jackson 3332 02:42:49,147 --> 02:42:52,467 Speaker 8: at number three from the Baltimore Ravens, Patrick Mahomes second 3333 02:42:52,587 --> 02:42:55,907 Speaker 8: from the Kansassee Chiefs, and surprisingly, Aaron Rodgers is. 3334 02:42:55,947 --> 02:42:56,587 Speaker 16: At number one. 3335 02:42:56,707 --> 02:42:59,947 Speaker 8: So the new starting quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers, he 3336 02:43:00,187 --> 02:43:02,547 Speaker 8: ranked first. And it's a bit surprising him when we 3337 02:43:02,587 --> 02:43:05,547 Speaker 8: consider as last three to five seasons have seen him 3338 02:43:05,627 --> 02:43:08,307 Speaker 8: slowly regard rest in terms of production and results as 3339 02:43:08,347 --> 02:43:12,387 Speaker 8: he ages out. For example, last season alone, he's failed 3340 02:43:12,427 --> 02:43:14,907 Speaker 8: to pass over four thousand yards and recorded twenty eight 3341 02:43:14,947 --> 02:43:17,707 Speaker 8: touchdowns and eleven interceptions, which is a long way office 3342 02:43:17,747 --> 02:43:21,827 Speaker 8: heyday when he was stacking MVP awards. Also interesting is 3343 02:43:21,867 --> 02:43:24,987 Speaker 8: that Rogers is sixth all time as a starting quarterback 3344 02:43:25,027 --> 02:43:27,667 Speaker 8: in the NFL, but it's way down the list at 3345 02:43:27,747 --> 02:43:31,667 Speaker 8: number twenty five all time in terms of fourth quarter comebacks. 3346 02:43:32,107 --> 02:43:35,747 Speaker 8: Further time eventually catches up pony, especially when we discussed 3347 02:43:35,827 --> 02:43:38,187 Speaker 8: profis who are looking to extend their careers into their 3348 02:43:38,267 --> 02:43:39,147 Speaker 8: forties nowadays. 3349 02:43:40,507 --> 02:43:42,627 Speaker 3: How much does it cost to go to an NFL game? 3350 02:43:44,467 --> 02:43:48,827 Speaker 8: Okay, I hope you're sitting down anyway. No, ticket prices 3351 02:43:48,867 --> 02:43:50,947 Speaker 8: for the opening week of the NFL season that they 3352 02:43:51,347 --> 02:43:54,267 Speaker 8: vary greatly. So again, I've converted all the monetary figures 3353 02:43:54,267 --> 02:43:57,187 Speaker 8: into the New Zealand dollars. For example, you can go 3354 02:43:57,347 --> 02:44:00,187 Speaker 8: watch New Orleans versus Arizona for the low bargain price 3355 02:44:00,267 --> 02:44:02,827 Speaker 8: of seventy five dollars, while at the top end of 3356 02:44:02,867 --> 02:44:06,467 Speaker 8: the scale, you can attend the Philadelphia Dallas game for 3357 02:44:06,627 --> 02:44:10,147 Speaker 8: no less than an i watering nine hundred and thirty 3358 02:44:10,187 --> 02:44:12,987 Speaker 8: two dollars. I mean, Kosh, it's no wonder these guys 3359 02:44:13,027 --> 02:44:16,587 Speaker 8: are getting paid astronomical suns when fans attending games have 3360 02:44:16,707 --> 02:44:18,907 Speaker 8: to shell out their hard earned money. Just to put 3361 02:44:18,947 --> 02:44:22,587 Speaker 8: it into context, the highest paid player in the NFL, 3362 02:44:22,707 --> 02:44:25,507 Speaker 8: but incredibly only the third best player in the division, 3363 02:44:25,987 --> 02:44:28,587 Speaker 8: earns a staggering one hundred and two million per season, 3364 02:44:28,627 --> 02:44:32,307 Speaker 8: which averages a mind blowing six million per game. Of 3365 02:44:32,427 --> 02:44:35,547 Speaker 8: the one hundred and twenty four quarterbacks currently contracted in 3366 02:44:35,627 --> 02:44:38,587 Speaker 8: the NFL. The lowest page still makes a decent month 3367 02:44:38,587 --> 02:44:41,867 Speaker 8: point four million per season. The crazy thing pining. With 3368 02:44:42,067 --> 02:44:44,507 Speaker 8: new TV deals on the horizon, these contracts will only 3369 02:44:44,587 --> 02:44:47,387 Speaker 8: continue to rise yearly. There seems to be no ceiling 3370 02:44:47,467 --> 02:44:48,347 Speaker 8: with these megabals. 3371 02:44:49,027 --> 02:44:55,147 Speaker 3: Just outrageous money, outrageous. It is a Netflix series Quarterback. 3372 02:44:55,387 --> 02:44:56,227 Speaker 3: No doubt you've caught it. 3373 02:44:57,307 --> 02:44:59,827 Speaker 8: Yeah, so I just wanted to ask you have you 3374 02:44:59,907 --> 02:45:00,827 Speaker 8: watched the series before? 3375 02:45:00,867 --> 02:45:01,387 Speaker 40: Have you seen it? 3376 02:45:01,547 --> 02:45:03,667 Speaker 3: Or I haven't? I know it's on my list, but no, 3377 02:45:03,827 --> 02:45:04,547 Speaker 3: I haven't watched it. 3378 02:45:05,467 --> 02:45:05,867 Speaker 37: Ajay. 3379 02:45:06,347 --> 02:45:09,707 Speaker 8: So it's reality TV at it's best, an intriguing look 3380 02:45:09,707 --> 02:45:12,347 Speaker 8: into the most spotched sports competition of the world. We 3381 02:45:12,507 --> 02:45:14,227 Speaker 8: get to have a look behind the curtain into the 3382 02:45:14,267 --> 02:45:17,507 Speaker 8: lives of professional athletes at the top of their game. Now, 3383 02:45:17,547 --> 02:45:20,587 Speaker 8: the quarterback is widely considered the most important position in 3384 02:45:20,707 --> 02:45:23,667 Speaker 8: all of sports, mainly because they're required to handle the 3385 02:45:23,707 --> 02:45:26,547 Speaker 8: ball on almost every play and have to make quick 3386 02:45:26,587 --> 02:45:29,667 Speaker 8: decisions under immense pressure. The success and failure of the 3387 02:45:29,707 --> 02:45:33,347 Speaker 8: football team rests largely on their shoulders, hence the reason 3388 02:45:33,387 --> 02:45:35,867 Speaker 8: they get paid the most. All of that aside, those 3389 02:45:36,347 --> 02:45:38,627 Speaker 8: quarterback is a great series, and of some of your listeners, 3390 02:45:38,707 --> 02:45:41,147 Speaker 8: haven't you watched the series, now into its second season. 3391 02:45:41,667 --> 02:45:43,867 Speaker 8: I strongly encouraged them to do so before the season 3392 02:45:43,987 --> 02:45:47,347 Speaker 8: kicks off. It's really compelling viewing. Maybe also a timey 3393 02:45:47,387 --> 02:45:50,907 Speaker 8: distraction from the disappointment Oh well beloved almosts early today. 3394 02:45:50,747 --> 02:45:53,347 Speaker 3: Finding maybe you're right just before you go. 3395 02:45:53,507 --> 02:45:53,947 Speaker 2: Have you done that? 3396 02:45:54,107 --> 02:45:56,547 Speaker 3: Have you done the heavy lifting on Super Bowl onds? 3397 02:45:56,547 --> 02:46:00,227 Speaker 3: Who who's favored to lift it when we get round 3398 02:46:00,227 --> 02:46:00,707 Speaker 3: of February? 3399 02:46:01,307 --> 02:46:04,867 Speaker 8: Yep, So most breting agencies expect the Baltimore Ravens and 3400 02:46:04,907 --> 02:46:08,427 Speaker 8: Buffalo Bills to win Super Bowl sixty in February, followed 3401 02:46:08,507 --> 02:46:12,347 Speaker 8: closely by the defending champion Philadelphia Eagles, then the Kansas 3402 02:46:12,347 --> 02:46:15,067 Speaker 8: City Chiefs and the Detroit Lions rounding out the top five. 3403 02:46:15,467 --> 02:46:17,587 Speaker 8: I've purposely left out the actual beating O. There's a 3404 02:46:17,627 --> 02:46:20,387 Speaker 8: line off and shifts marginally before the regular season starts. 3405 02:46:21,027 --> 02:46:24,027 Speaker 8: Your Sun's team, the Minnesota Vikings, are hovering around number ten, 3406 02:46:24,107 --> 02:46:26,587 Speaker 8: so they're certainly in with the real chance to lift 3407 02:46:26,627 --> 02:46:29,387 Speaker 8: the long Marty. But as often allude to Piney, the 3408 02:46:29,467 --> 02:46:32,507 Speaker 8: best news is that the NFL season kicks off and 3409 02:46:32,627 --> 02:46:35,987 Speaker 8: early eleven sleeps and ten in counting down the days 3410 02:46:36,027 --> 02:46:36,627 Speaker 8: until Christmas. 3411 02:46:36,707 --> 02:46:39,827 Speaker 3: Bring it on, mate, bring it on and daily on. 3412 02:46:39,907 --> 02:46:42,587 Speaker 3: Love your enthusiasm for all things American sport, mate, Thanks 3413 02:46:42,627 --> 02:46:45,027 Speaker 3: so much for the update le On Bosby taking us 3414 02:46:45,187 --> 02:46:48,867 Speaker 3: state side here on weekend sport coming up eight away from. 3415 02:46:48,747 --> 02:46:52,907 Speaker 1: Three, breaking down the Hail Mary's and the epic fail 3416 02:46:54,587 --> 02:46:58,267 Speaker 1: Weekend Sport with Jason Pin News Talk ZENB. 3417 02:46:58,667 --> 02:47:01,027 Speaker 3: News Talk's EB five to three.
