1
00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:03,600
Speaker 1: Good morning, Isaac, welcome back to town after a lengthy

2
00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:04,320
Speaker 1: road trip.

3
00:00:04,559 --> 00:00:05,800
Speaker 2: Good morning, Thanks for having me.

4
00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:06,560
Speaker 3: It's good to be about.

5
00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:08,480
Speaker 1: Nice place to go, the New Zealand. I mean, if

6
00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:11,600
Speaker 1: you must go on the road, that's surely a nice location.

7
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:12,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, you can't complain.

8
00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:15,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, nice location, little country unless you got the rampaging Crusaders.

9
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:19,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. Other than that, it was good. It was good.

10
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:23,640
Speaker 1: Fortunately they thumped the Force by thirty five points on Saturday,

11
00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:29,200
Speaker 1: forty eight to thirteen. Onwards and upwards though, Yeah, definitely

12
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:30,880
Speaker 1: just got to put that sort of thing behind you.

13
00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:33,280
Speaker 2: I guess you got to keep moving, Yeah, keep moving

14
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:35,640
Speaker 2: because you've always got next week and yeah, we've just

15
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:36,600
Speaker 2: got to be better this week.

16
00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:39,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, and they had the champ so you know, they're

17
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:40,840
Speaker 3: a very very good time. We were just talking about

18
00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:42,519
Speaker 3: the fact that they don't lose two games in a

19
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:43,120
Speaker 3: row very often.

20
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:45,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was. It's pretty devastating that the Chiefs beat them,

21
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:47,839
Speaker 2: because we were at well next stup in line. So

22
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:51,000
Speaker 2: now the Crusaders are a solid side and if you

23
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:52,600
Speaker 2: miss a beat against them, that make you pay.

24
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:55,000
Speaker 1: I know, given a choice, you would say I'd rather

25
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 1: have a win, but you did win Player of the

26
00:00:57,040 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 1: match despite the loss. So that's impressive and congratulations.

27
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,720
Speaker 2: Thank you, thank you. Yeah, it's definitely it's always team first.

28
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:06,080
Speaker 2: I would it would have loved to come away with

29
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 2: a win, but no, thank you.

30
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 3: You're in a rich fame of form personally. Mate. What

31
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:11,400
Speaker 3: about Simon the coach? Has he feeling about the thing?

32
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 3: The way things are coming together? Obviously not that loss

33
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:13,759
Speaker 3: on the weekend?

34
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:16,600
Speaker 2: Yeah good, obviously, Like you've got a lot of young

35
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 2: talent in around the squad, and I guess we're still

36
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 2: still chasing that eighty minute performance and we've got a

37
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:24,840
Speaker 2: chance to do it this weekend against a good Fiji

38
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:26,839
Speaker 2: injury side at home in front of our fans.

39
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:31,679
Speaker 1: You are at home for three of the next yeah, right,

Speaker 1: Yeah exactly.

45
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 3: Well that's part of it. Yeah, at this stage of

46
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:48,160
Speaker 3: the year, how are you feeling? I mean, obviously you're

47
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 3: in a pretty good form yourself, but how does the

48
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 3: body feel at this point of the season.

49
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 2: I feel quite good actually. Obviously the leagus get tired

50
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 2: here and there, but compared to the forwards, the body's

51
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:00,360
Speaker 2: bodies take a lot more collisions than I do. So

52
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 2: I'm feeling quite good in behind them, so just got

53
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 2: to keep getting behind them and then they protect me

54
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:09,080
Speaker 2: a lot. So yeah, I feel good. I feel good.

55
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,160

70
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:50,040
