1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,560
Speaker 1: Elliott Smith of the Sport. Hey Ellien, Hey Ron, good

2
00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:05,200
Speaker 1: to have you on. So this guy at the center

3
00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:09,600
Speaker 1: of the ref abuse controversy in company says it wasn't him,

4
00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:10,360
Speaker 1: it was the ref.

5
00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:13,880
Speaker 2: This is remarkable, isn't it. Remember they suspended all play

6
00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:17,080
Speaker 2: in Hotophanil Company for a weekend because of this game

7
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:20,040
Speaker 2: Marta College against Corpanty Bolage and then this is the

8
00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:22,080
Speaker 2: Marta Vers of Deen coach. Now Darren Pieway has come

9
00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:24,880
Speaker 2: out and said, actually it was the ref who punched me.

10
00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:28,240
Speaker 2: I wasn't part of this at all. Apparently the vision

11
00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:30,480
Speaker 2: supposedly shows him pushing the referee, but he says the

12
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:33,319
Speaker 2: vision that he's seen hasn't suspended on that. So all

13
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:36,240
Speaker 2: of this has come because they've suspended rugby, as I said,

14
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:39,199
Speaker 2: for a week And now it turns out that maybe,

15
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:40,800
Speaker 2: of course we're believing one side or here on one

16
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:42,360
Speaker 2: side of the story here, and we haven't heard from

17
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:45,400
Speaker 2: Hotophaniel Company have really straight battered this that maybe it

18
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:47,520
Speaker 2: was the referee who sort of rolled up the fist

19
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:50,600
Speaker 2: because Darren Piwai says he shook hands with him then

20
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:52,559
Speaker 2: raised an issue from the game. I think it was

21
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 2: about the amount of at a time extra time at

22
00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:56,400
Speaker 2: the end of the game, and that was when the

23
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:59,800
Speaker 2: referee allegedly rolled up his fist and had to crack

24
00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:03,040
Speaker 2: it the Marna College head coach. Goodness, So this is

25
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,440
Speaker 2: all going to go to a hearing I think next week, right,

26
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 2: But there's some part of it that isn't going to

27
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:10,560
Speaker 2: be presented. There some part of it that's been here separately,

28
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 2: So it all seems really really murky. So I think

29
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,120
Speaker 2: we can all agree that the whole suspending rugby for

30
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 2: a week was probably a good idea to try, and

31
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,960
Speaker 2: you stand down on this absolutely, but it feels like

32
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:22,880
Speaker 2: maybe they've gone about it the wrong way and got

33
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,960
Speaker 2: the wrong story and the wrong end of the stick.

34
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:27,320
Speaker 1: On all of this sounds like it too. Hey, this

35
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:31,399
Speaker 1: fight tonight Sonny Bill and Paul Gallon, and we've got

36
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:32,319
Speaker 1: David Nieker as well.

37
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:34,240
Speaker 2: Yeah. Absolutely, this is a big night for New Zealand boxing.

38
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:36,800
Speaker 2: Davinika looking to bounce back from that lost to Jayopataia

39
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 2: earlier on in the year, which is sort of as

40
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 2: it does in boxing. You lose, it sort of derails

41
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:43,640
Speaker 2: your career a little bit and you've got to take

42
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,039
Speaker 2: a few steps backwards to go forward again. David Nica

43
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 2: fighting and next Sho Olampos. On the undercard, the Sonny

44
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:52,040
Speaker 2: Bill Williams versus Paul Gallon fight. I know you spoke

45
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 2: to Sonny Bill Williams a few weeks ago. He was

46
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 2: in good neck for it. Paul Gallon. This is the

47
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 2: fight that people have been looking forward to for a decade.

48
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 2: Too oldly floks who never really liked each other during

49
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 2: their career about to settle some differences. I know there's

50
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 2: got a big crowd, obviously pay per view audience around here.

51
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,959
Speaker 2: I'm fascinated to see how it all unfolds later on.

52
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 1: Do you know how much it costs to I think.

53
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,120
Speaker 2: It's forty five dollars. It isn't cheap.

54
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 1: That's more than because I got Sky just for the

55
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,839
Speaker 1: game on Saturday, the All Blacks on Saturday Night, which

56
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 1: I think was about twenty five dollars. Since it's quite pricey.

57
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 2: Forty five dollars for one night of viewing. I mean,

58
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:25,800
Speaker 2: you get the David Naka fight, you'll get the SBW

59
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 2: Gallon fight.

60
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 1: Is someone going to get knocked out quickly? Do you reckon?

61
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 2: Probably? I think it'll be it'll be done quickly. I

62
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 2: think they'll both want to knock each other out. They've

63
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 2: said as much.

64
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,000
