1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,200 Speaker 1: Here is the bloke who's broadcasting from a shed this 2 00:00:02,279 --> 00:00:04,000 Speaker 1: week in Jason Pine. Welcome to the show. 3 00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:07,000 Speaker 2: Hello Andrew, good morning mate. 4 00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:09,080 Speaker 1: Has it got insulation? Is it a warm shed? 5 00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:12,720 Speaker 2: It's a very warm shed. It's a very hospitable shed. 6 00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:17,280 Speaker 2: Excuse me, Shed twenty two and downtown Wellington a great 7 00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:19,079 Speaker 2: place to broadcast a radio show from. 8 00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:21,200 Speaker 1: And of course a home test for you. So you've 9 00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:22,920 Speaker 1: got your own bed to sleep and so you should 10 00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:26,360 Speaker 1: be in great form. Now, well let's look at the match. 11 00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:28,479 Speaker 1: Captain Scott Barrett out for the rest of the series 12 00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:31,520 Speaker 1: due to a calf injury. So how does this side 13 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:33,839 Speaker 1: perform without Barrett and how much will he regret not 14 00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:34,680 Speaker 1: having these games? 15 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:38,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, look, I think they'll be okay without him. I 16 00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:41,240 Speaker 2: mean it's always been a bit of a next man 17 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,479 Speaker 2: up scenario for excuse me, for the All Blacks and 18 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,159 Speaker 2: look Patrick two for lost who comes into the second row. 19 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:51,640 Speaker 2: He's a pretty good replacement. Really fifty test matches, he's 20 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:55,280 Speaker 2: a experienced campaigner captain of the Blues. So look, I'm 21 00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:58,120 Speaker 2: not sure they'd lose a lot there, but when you 22 00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:01,840 Speaker 2: lose your skipper, that is a know, that's a little hurdle. 23 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 2: To get over. I just wonder how injured Scott Barrett 24 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 2: might actually be. I think that there's a concern that 25 00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:11,880 Speaker 2: this isn't going to be a short term thing for 26 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 2: Scott Barrett. He's going to miss this game and next weekend, 27 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:17,760 Speaker 2: but there's just a little bit of doubt out there 28 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:21,319 Speaker 2: about whether he might actually be out for significantly longer 29 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 2: than that. It's just a feeling you get from the 30 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 2: All Blacks when they talk about him and say they're 31 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 2: a little bit coy about exactly how bad the injury is. 32 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,320 Speaker 2: So look, he's out for this one. Let's hope that 33 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 2: he's going to be okay for the Rugby Championship. 34 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,039 Speaker 1: And let's be frank, the focus of our season is 35 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 1: the spring Boks two games there and we want him 36 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 1: back for that. Caleb Clark gets a second chance. Now, 37 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:43,120 Speaker 1: what does he have to do. 38 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 2: I think he has to be good in the air. 39 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 2: I think there's one thing that they weren't last week 40 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 2: in Dunedin. The All Blacks they just found it very 41 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 2: difficult to diffuse France's aerial game. So I think that's 42 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 2: one thing that they'll definitely have to do tomorrow. And 43 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 2: Caleb Clark's a big part of that. He's probably the 44 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 2: All Blacks beast winger in terms of diffusing the high bomb. 45 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 2: He'd want to get a try as well, Andrew. He 46 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 2: didn't get a single try in Super Rugby Caleb Clark, 47 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:13,239 Speaker 2: which is so unusual for a winger. But yeah, look 48 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 2: he gets his opportunity. He is a good player and 49 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,360 Speaker 2: let's hope that he can show that at Sky Stadium 50 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 2: tomorrow night. 51 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 1: So will when the wingers don't get tries, I blame 52 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 1: the midfield, to be honest with you. 53 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:26,360 Speaker 2: And it's a great point. It's a great point. And look, 54 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:28,919 Speaker 2: we know who plays at center for the Blues and 55 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:31,399 Speaker 2: that's Rico Youanni, He'll be out on the other wing 56 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 2: tomorrow night. So it's Billy Proctor who has the task 57 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 2: at center with Jordi Barrett inside him to provide those 58 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 2: opportunities for the wingers. It's a great point. So yeah, 59 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,520 Speaker 2: let's hope they can provide the ammunition for the likes 60 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 2: of Clark and Yuani and will Jordan a fall back 61 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 2: to score some tries. 62 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 1: Actually, Rico has got a lot to prove as well. 63 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,800 Speaker 1: If Billy's going to take over his role, which is 64 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 1: starting to look likely, he's got to make the wing 65 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:55,919 Speaker 1: his home again. 66 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:58,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, isn't it funny that he's gone across the right 67 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,359 Speaker 2: wing as well? Of all sort of rika yoani if 68 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 2: he is a winger as a left winger with eleven 69 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 2: on his back. But look, I can't remember the last 70 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:08,960 Speaker 2: time he played on the right wing. Our Rugby editor 71 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 2: Elliott Smith told me yesterday. He reckons it's twenty nineteen, 72 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 2: which is an awfully long time ago. Look, I don't 73 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 2: know that there's a huge difference between playing on the 74 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,399 Speaker 2: left wing and on the right wing. But you're right, 75 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:22,919 Speaker 2: he's got to find a place. If Billy Propp is 76 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:24,959 Speaker 2: going to be the center, then Reco has to play 77 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:26,359 Speaker 2: well on the wing just to make sure he's still 78 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 2: in the mix. 79 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: Jason, enjoy your weekend working out of his shed, and 80 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 1: I look forward to your sideline comments and of course 81 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 1: Elliot Smith will be doing the call and it's right 82 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 1: here live on News Talks HEBB For more from early 83 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: edition with Ryan Bridge. 84 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 2: Listen live to News Talks HEB from five am weekdays, 85 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 2: or follow the podcast on iHeartRadio.
