Speaker 1 (00:00):
Live from a freshly refurbished Export Beer Garden studio and
brought to you, as always by Export Ultra, the beer
for here. This is the Agenda Podcast for Monday, the
sixteenth of September.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
The Agenda Podcast, the home of Sporting, Nonsense and clap Trap,
brought to you by Next sport A.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
Vultra Franz Banker Lane.
Speaker 3 (00:19):
Well it smells new.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
It does smell new, Yeah, I hope it sounds new
for those of you listening. We've just refurbished the studio.
And by the studio, I mean there's now a set. Yeah,
it's in the same studio.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
We've got a good backdrop. It's all the light only
the windows do we no, God No. All that means
is people can see in here. Like we said last week,
we lifted the curtains for the first time in years.
The place just about burst into flames when we did, so, Yeah,
it's about time. Although I do notice now that I
look at it, that the curtains are actually up and
you can't get back there to lower them, so.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
That could potentially be an oversight. But if you want
to see it, you can check it out on Instagram.
Look up the alternative common try collective on Instagram and
you can be one of the hundred to watch it today.
I've printed off four blank sheets of paper in front
of me. Yeah, so what do you got. I've got
one piece of paper, Yes, got some writing on it. Yes,
(01:13):
David Nika. Yes, we went and watched him fight. Yes,
Saturday night.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Yep, big Runway. I tell you that I was nervous
about the Runways first fight at quarter past six eleven.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Yeah, not to be before eleven.
Speaker 3 (01:27):
Yeah, and look we're talking about full catering as well,
aren't we. Yeah. And we had young Isaac on the
table and she's that bucket of beers and white claws.
We down did it?
Speaker 4 (01:41):
No?
Speaker 1 (01:41):
Well, what I found out was happening was they were
coming over and asking him and the notorious pants ban
Joel Harrison if the thing needed topping up. But I
think at the same time a different person was asking
you if it needed topping up as well. So when
we were ordering rounds of beers, we were doubling up
on ourselves.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
So yeah, it was like it was a mountain which yeah,
and they were getting warm. Well the problem this is
the thing.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
It also created a bit of a turbo sort of
effect where it started spoiling up because people saw the
amount of pass we had to get through and lifted
their tempo to keep track with that. So the point
where I actually had a spit take at one point
where I ended up spitting my drink all over the
long suffering Lauren was sitting next to me at the
table because Joel Harrison is telling me a story about
(02:27):
how he put one hundred dollars on David Yuka's fight
and he was paying. He's paying a dollar, a dollar
and four cents, so he vested, invested one hundred dollars
and won four dollars, but it was actually a bonus bit,
so he actually only won two dollars. I had the
same reaction you just did then, but had a mouthful
(02:48):
of white claw and it went all over Lauren's brand
new dress. So things got pretty pear shape there. And
you mentioned a long runway long time listeners of the
a SEC will remember sprayed around Scotty. Yes, it was
fortieth on the weekend.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
Yes, and here's fortieth started at two thirty in the afternoon.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Yeah, so we were well and truly up for it
by the time we got there.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
Luckily that we left spray around Scotty's party. Whim we
dead because poor Joe got hit up by a person
who was sticking up for the physio from England.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Yeah right, Oh that whole drum Yeah yeah got resurfaced.
Yeah great, that's good. I'm glad we left. And so
that the fights themselves. There were four heavyweight fights on
the undercard. Two of them were four round fights, and
I'd sort of got that I told you before we
went in there. I love betting on boxing cards and
(03:37):
MMA cards because you can bet on that fight when
or lost, then you can either reinvest or chase on
the next one.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
So it's quite fun punting ringside, and I got into
the rhythm of things. I was like, oh, I see
how these fights are gone. There are only four rounds.
I'll bet on this next one to go the distance.
And so I did, and they came out and said,
these two gentlemen, we'll be fighting for ten rounds. I
was like, oh, someone's going down, and so at that
point I was kind of it's like beating the unders,
(04:06):
you know, like you're beating against excitement. So whils I
was sitting there just sweating. I don't talk about don't
don'tknok about. It was a good fight in the end,
and thankfully it did go the distance. Made a bit
of made a bit of coin on that one.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
I mean in the highlight for me was the guy
got smacked out of the ring. Yeah, I don't know
what fight there was, my meaner the third fight of
the night.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
As yes, the third last. It was a big heavyweight
two boppers and he got knocked basically unconscious but was
still sort of like staggering around and his ass went
out of the thing and old mate just clubbed him
again and he went flying out of the ring like
a WWE fight. That was definitely highlight of the.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
Of the night on it I end seeing poor carpiencies
kidneys burst live on stage.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Yeah, so a lot of people have been asking me
this morning about how I was the fight a little
bit disappointing, But he actually David Yuka let him up,
Like I know, the highlights didn't look that good because
he just sort of took and knee and then the
towel got thrown in and that was all she wrote.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
But it was a good fight. David Nika did light
that thought up. Every time he hit his kidneys. There
was a slap that went through the Vine Accident Center
and the crowd just went. It wasn't cheering, it was
just like.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
Oh yeah it was. It was like watching a man
at the at the heavy bag as hard as he
possibly could.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
Yeah, a lot of a lot of a lot more
females at the event than I was expecting. Any reason,
any reason for that?
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Do you think more than usual for a boxing card.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Yeah, they might think it might be the David Niaker effect.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
It could be if you haven't seen on the old
Instagram thing. You know, there was where they all came
out the walkouts. There a lot of people crowded around.
I was, I wonder if we can get away. Fist
bump here on his way out and just got hung
out to dry there. But thankfully the security guard he
saved the day down through at the fist bump.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
You your first was hanging out there like an old
man's naphyla, and create to you he had well and
truly blanked you, Dave Nat and you just just kept
the first out there like you were just like you know,
I'm just I'm actually just paralyzed. And then the security
guard he came back to you and then like just
felt sorry for you, delivered you a first and then
(06:14):
you were like.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
And then tossed me out. Yeah. So David Yuka's family
were on the other side, and so he went over
over to them. You can't see he's just out of shot.
But I was waiting to see if he would turn
around and then but no he didn't. So yeah, just
utterly humiliated myself. Shut it to Jay Reeve for filming that.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
He dined out on that as well. I saw him
when I was on the way to the toilet and.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
He's like, yeah, that's out, Jack Maya.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
This is the blank you'll ever see.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
Yeah, it was. It was tough to watch. I tell
you what, if you're dusty, nothing will make you search
your soul more than seeing footage of yourself getting blanked
by David and there soon as we got there. So
it's a black tie event. I don't know what the
fuck that means. All I figured out is that black
tie doesn't mean you actually have to wear a black tie, right.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Yeah, I think it's it's strongly recommended.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
It's an indicator of the kind of because are in
bow tyes. Yeah, but then there was dudes in T
shirts and shorts there were, yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
But I was. They were the kind of people that
I wouldn't have stopped at the door.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
No, I think they were. They were friends and family
of some of the fighters.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
And I think a lot of them might have paid
cash for the table.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Yeah. So I get there first person. We see Laura
McGoldrick coming in off the long run up, but she'd
been at a lady's lunch. Yeah, ladies long lunch. Then
she came steaming in and she just walks up to
me and grabs my shirt and goes, who the fuck
were is lenen to a black tiving. I was like, Jesus,
I didn't know what the rules were. I haven't been
to a lot of black tie events. To be fair,
(07:47):
this is the only shit that fits me. I was like, Oh,
I thought I was looking pretty good. I went into
the toilet one stage.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
I think it was probably eight o'clock, and the toilets
were choco full of urinals and a big.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
Whoa, it's dressed to go by.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
And everyone's like yeah, yeah, and then I heard he
get the funk out of here, lane, Okay, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
I I went in there, used the facilities, and as
I was walking out, there was a line because there
were half as many sinks as there were urinals. Yeah,
urinals were packed. I was like, you know what, I'm
going to get away with us here. I'm just going
to walk out wash you. As soon as I walked out,
I just could just hear Mike Minogue from the back
of the grub and so I walked out. As soon
(08:38):
as I walked out there, producer Pugs Pugsy was there.
He guess kidd mate came over and shook my head.
So then, yeah, I saw Monogue later on he said,
that's going to get about half an hour's worth of
ear time on the big show.
Speaker 3 (08:51):
Wash washing hands at urinals, you have to urinating.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
Yeah, that's right. Well, Jason Hoyt doesn't work. I suppose.
I suppose at that point you wouldn't need to wash
your hands anyway. But I see that he's taken Instagram. Oh,
David Yuki. He wants to go again for the end
of the year. Yeah, I mean he barely got punched.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
Nah, no, not at all. I mean yeah, And I
think he said that when we talk to him. He
wants to, you know, just road to the title. He
wants to be fighting, you know, every four or five months. Yeah,
having something on the card, so yeah, but the end
of the year, it'd be great to do it again.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
Yeah, he's just gonna need to find someone because I think,
like as good as that carp and C dude was,
at some point in his career, I think it was
a bit of a shell of himself, to be fair.
He did fight only like a month or two ago
that Carpenin Feller, and then he took the fight on
three weeks notice. So he wasn't, you know, in tiptop shape,
but he got pieced up. It would be good to
see him go against a little bit stiffer competition, maybe
(09:44):
someone we've heard of, although I haven't heard of any
of the people in the Cruisewe No division, so be
interesting to see. But I'd like to go again. There's
something in the air when you're at the boxing. I
will will not though. There's something I noticed the last
time I went to a boxing event. The crowd's way quieter,
like you can hear a pin drop in there for
(10:04):
some reason.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
Yeah, we had a friends and family table behind us
of one of the fighters that yeah, they were going
nuts with My ears were ringing.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Yeah, for one of the fighters. This girl's screaming the
entire time, but for the rest of it you could
basically hear people's cutlery and yeah, shit, I think it's
partly tension, partly the fact you're all sitting around tables
having dinner.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
Yeah, that's that's a bit strange. Yeah, eating a steak
while some guy was getting his head pounded and about
ten meters away from you.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
I'd rather be here than in there. Yeah, But shout
out to them, and shout out to Duke for having
us there as well.
Speaker 3 (10:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Hopefully if they get another fight, we can get David
back in here. I can sort of yea, my grievance
with him just leaving me hanging yeap.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
I can't wait to show them the video.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Actually, yeah, hopefully I've seen it. Hopefully it feels terrible
about it. All right, let's take quick break. We'll come
back and talk a bit more sport. I want to
start with the Black Cats because they're playing Tri Lanka
in the first of two tests this week.
Speaker 3 (10:59):
Yes, scoll on when ball on Wednesday.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
These two tests are part of the World Test Championship,
correct which I've had a look at the standings. At
the moment, we sit third on the latter behind India
and Australia. We've played six matches Ossie have played nine.
In India have played twelve. That's ridiculous, but that works
in our favor because it's win percentage. It's the amount
(11:22):
of points that were available. How many of those have
you won? You get twelve points for a word. It's
very cricket. It's very confusing. Duckworth Lewis must have come
up with this fucking system. We're on thirty six I
think Australia on like ninety. England have played sixteen Test matches. Yeah,
which unfortunately drops them down to rank sixth because they've
had more opportunity to lose than anyone else.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
Yeah, and they lose. When they lose, they lose hard
because they go for baswell.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
But the interesting part about this test is not that
it starts on Wednesday. It's not that we're third on
the table. It's that we're taking a day off in
the middle of it. Have you've seen this? So it
starts Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, then they take Saturday off, then
they pick back up Sunday Monday. So this is going
to be a six day test all told. Because Sri
Lanka's election is on the Saturday. They can't have any
(12:10):
security there, so that's taking the day off so over
and can go I guess, or maybe it's because they
want to make sure that, you know, enough people vote
in the election.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
Just set up a voting booth in the stadium, Yeah,
have people vote on their way in. I think it's
more of security things. I know in India you cannot
tour India during any sort of elections because they can't
guarantee security for the event, right, because it's around the elections.
I think it's probably more around that. But rain is
forecast for the first five days of this test. Awesome,
(12:38):
Well it's a six day test, yes, and the sixth
day beautiful sunshine.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
Well, we'll get to get one day of action. Yeah,
and an election result.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
I think they've got better drainage in Gaul than they
have it in the India. Girl has been around for
a long time. Beautiful, beautiful stadium. It's got like a
fort running around it next to the ocean, I know
the one. Yeah, and it's quite it's quite a ground
that's quite close to Kiwi's hearts as well, because when
the tsunami hit, you know, the boxing Day tsunami. That's
that ground absolutely totaled and New Zealand Cricket and New
(13:10):
Zealand were quite instrumental in rebuilding that right, helping rebuild
that stadium in that ground. So it's an amazing place.
It's like the locations awesome.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
I's just hope it doesn't fucking rain the whole time.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Nahor there's no tsunamis. Have you ever been to Sri
Lanka before?
Speaker 3 (13:26):
Yeah, I've heard.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
I've heard nothing but great things about it.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
That is a great place. You have to ignore the
fact that you know, there was some sort of genocide
happened up in the hills with the canils. But it
is what you'd say are manageable India. Yeah, it's smaller, Yeah,
you can kind of drive around. It's got some great beaches,
great wildlife, great wildlife. They've got like a Safari park
in the liver where you can go and see leopards
(13:51):
and crocodiles and elephants and and there there native birders,
a jungle fowl which is a jungle chicken. Oh yeah,
they've got heaps of these jungle chickens running around and
they've got tea plantations up in the mountains as well.
They've got their famous train ride that all those Instagram
woundersoos themselves on it. I would highly recommend it. It's
(14:13):
like I was saying, if you're too scared to go
to India because it's a massive humanity Sri Lanka is here,
is he more manageable? And the national sport rugby? Yeah,
they fucking love rugby. Really.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
They obviously suck at it though, because they're never at
the World Cup.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
No, but you go over there and there's a lot
of how you say it, contracted overseas players right there,
like loads of fig and dues, tongu and gentlemen. Yeah,
because the military is quite big on rugby, so they've
got the strongest team. Yeah. I was quite surprised. I
had we had a guide with him were there, because
you pay one hundred yueist dollars and you get a
driver in a car and they take it around everywhere.
(14:48):
And his favorite players, Richie mcare I seen him in
all that ex jusey afterwards, So it's just the biggest
Richie McCaw fan. So weird going to Sri Lanka and
you think it's all cricket, but rugby.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Yeah, it's full on it.
Speaker 4 (14:58):
You know.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
I've got a lot of friends who have been there
and sent rave reviews about it. Apparently, if you ask
the right way, they're not averse to the fucking mana's.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
Over there, Oh no, especially on the beaches surf beaches.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
Or apparently through the Safari Park where one of my
friends allegedly had been offered the fucking manas and then
stone to the girls watching a leopard drag a deer
into a tree.
Speaker 3 (15:24):
We went through the Safari Park with our guide and
we hadn't seen a leopard, and he was pretty guarded
that we hadn't provided a leopard for us. So you
have to be out of the park by six pm
otherwise the guides get fined and everything. And it was
well past six and he saw a leopard in the distance,
and so we saw the leopard, took fight, came ran
right past us, went onto the bush and he's like, okay,
(15:46):
we have to go now, but I just have to
do one more thing, and he popped the boot off
the the jeep open, put his hands all through the grease,
greased up his face and everything all over his head,
and then bum rushed the gate and said he'd broken
down and he had to fix the good know what
he was like, what's he doing? Because he was like,
did the things they've broken down? I had to appear
(16:09):
to change the oil and like he was just covered,
covered himself and ship. It was so good.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
They would have seen him coming off. He comes home
made again, he's going to try that he's broken down.
Excuse Yeah, I can't be bothered with an argument today.
Just let him go now.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
Highly recommend you, if you get a chance, get over there,
get out of You're flying to Columbo and you get
the fuck out of there. And he'd straight up to
kind of candy up in the mountains. Yeah, gol on
the coast. If you're a surfing too, they've got great
surf beaches.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
Maybe that should be one of our next trips.
Speaker 3 (16:39):
Yeah. And that's where they fish off the poles. You
know you see those dudes standing on poles.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
Oh, yeah, that's where they do that.
Speaker 3 (16:44):
Oh it's crazy. They're just at the top of his pole,
just catching tiny fish and just tucking into get.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
A boat like Pilchards. Yeah, powerful stuff. The NBC across
the weekend. You will be heartbroken to know that has
been retained the shield. Wellington did not win. It was
like almost the last minute buzzerb to try to a
block by the name of Kor and Tom Moyfilow. It
was a tremendous try, Like this individual effort broke. Oh
(17:09):
I made something out of nothing and then won it. Unfortunately.
Does that mean we've cursed Wellington?
Speaker 3 (17:15):
Yeah? Well look Brad Shields, nice guy. Yeah, terrifying man.
I wouldn't want to get on his bed side. You
may have correct, Yeah, because he did say, we said
why you see, we'll talk to you after you win
the shield.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
I was hoping this wouldn't be brought up.
Speaker 3 (17:30):
And then he said, have you dis cursed us? But
I don't. We don't. We don't have a history in cursing.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
No. Yeah, I did say, well, if you win the shield,
you left to come on this weekend. And I was
saying after after we interviewed him, I was like, I
only said that because if they lose, he's not gonna
want to come on here and talk to us. So
please welcome Brad Shields to the show.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
I think Tasman got it for the got it for
the summer. You're against my vibe because I think that
was their biggest threat. There was the two unbeaten teams
and they closed them out. So I can't see has
been losing it.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
No, yeah that is. I mean, look, I don't think
we cursed them, but selfishly I am grateful that it
is staying in the South Island because that's now a
bus trip for South Canterbury, who gave me a heart
attack over the weekend.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
I did yous come in?
Speaker 1 (18:15):
No it didn't, so our three way I think Carl's
horse did.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
Oh yeah, I don't care about car need.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
I can't catch them.
Speaker 3 (18:23):
Yeah, my cricket one didn't come in. They had seven
six is Australia not more than eight and a half apoint.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
I had South Africa, South Africa, South Canterbury to minus
nineteen and a half. I played North Otago. They were
down by twenty points at halftime and I checked that
and I was like, fuck, mabe, this could be it.
And then they came back and won it, and I
just think like we're gonna have to I think we
have to get their coach or something on because it
must be terrifying having I think it's like almost forty
(18:50):
games on the trot.
Speaker 3 (18:51):
Now you're a target Yeah, you're a target see everyone.
That's what Like, that's what Auckland were for years during
the eighties. Yeah, when they had this shield, they were
a target for everyone.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
Yeah. But and like obviously, I know you never plan
to lose a game of rugby anyway, so it's not
going to impact it that much. But they must be
getting the speed wabbles now. We'll have to get them
on later on. But in other rugby news, we didn't
talk about it on Friday, but the news came out
that they are changing the finals format for Super Rugby
next year.
Speaker 3 (19:18):
Do you understand it? I like to think I do.
To the point of the ranking things, So six teams qualify.
See first place Sex, you can place fifth. Yeah, that
kind of thing. But first and second have a second chance.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
Ah what No, So whoever losers one of the losing teams,
whoever the highest ranked losing team is, gets a second
chance the next week.
Speaker 3 (19:49):
Okay, so if number one beats Sex but two losers
to five, two gets another hone.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
Ah, so there's going to be three winners that go
through to the next round. They need one more to
make up. And it's the highest rank of the losers.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
Why do they do this.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
That's so stupid, and I saw My first instinct was
and I've seen other journalists write this. I think Dylan
Cleaver had the same point was they just wanted to
copy NRL, but because they're rugby, they have to be like,
we didn't copy NROL, we come up with their own one.
So they've made a shitter version of what the NRL
has because the NROL one is confusing. I have to
(20:28):
look at the picture to be able to understand what's
going on. But the top two ranked teams, if they
win their first match or the top four throw, they
get a buy the next round. That's what you're playing for,
and then if you lose, you get a second bite
of the cherry of the next round. You get to
stay in. That makes sense. See what you're playing for
is a bye next week, and if you lose then
you have to fight for your life the following week.
(20:49):
That I can understand. What I can't understand is so
I one players, but then if they win, now you're
waiting on the next game because of that team wins
now you could go through. But if the other team wins,
now you're out because of the rankings. I don't know
hopefully it makes teams jocking for position a bit more
intense throughout the season.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
They want it because you want to secure one or two,
don't you. Yeah, that's because that's your lifeline.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
Yeah, even even three, because if you lost in your third,
no one else would lose but be higher ranked than you.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
Oh yeah, because of one and two win.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
Yeah, but then four. The thing is, and I hate
when people come out and say, oh, it's not that confusing,
like it's actually really easy to understand. It's like, you
can't just say that because it's fucking not. I don't
understand it, you know, So you you can tell me
that I should until the cows come home. I'm fucking not.
And this is what we're gonna have to do with
all next year as well. Hang on, did they so
(21:45):
they win? But then they at least.
Speaker 3 (21:47):
I've reduced it to sex. I mean, but they've had
to have they.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Yeah, they had to because yeah, well there's eleven teams.
Teams were making the playoffs that had won like two games.
It was a bit ridiculous and just quickly on sport
as well. The Blackburns lost over the weekend twenty four
to twelve in front of forty one and a half
thousand people at Twickenham. Did they curse themselves by hugging
the King? Wh Is that a curse? Is that a curse?
Speaker 3 (22:14):
I don't know. I don't know if he holds any
sort of sways the old King Charles m trophy head.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
Maybe not. I'm I'm just trying to grasp the straws
for some sort.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
Of It's he shrinking and his appendages are getting bigger,
his fingers are getting fatter, his ears are getting bigger.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
It certainly seems that way, doesn't it. God, could you
imagine what his feet look like? King Charles, get the
dogs out. We need to see it.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
But like twenty four twelve, that's not They were expected
to potentially struggle a little bit against the world number
one in Twickenham, So twenty four to twelve sounds like
they gave it a good I didn't see any of it,
but it sounds like that score line, doesn't they.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Gave it a good note? Yeah, that's right. I don't
think this is panic bells, but we do love to
just hit the panic button whenever a New Zealand rugby
team loses. Yeah, all right, let's take a break when
we come back, We'll get to yours.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
Please, yours please, brought to you by Leader Home of
the Las Top.
Speaker 1 (23:11):
We have four to get through. First caller, yours please, Lads.
Speaker 5 (23:15):
I'm sitting in the pub watching the AFL and I
just said a brain wave. G Laying looks like treasure
Trevor Scalf. Treasure Trevor Scalf, Travis Kels if g Lay
look after himself. Too many fucking knife parties in his
life and brain cancers anyway, horo fuck what if your
(23:35):
team Trevors Scalse's plays for.
Speaker 1 (23:38):
Look, I'll take that petty girls really tying on on there?
He is petty.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
Come down, mate, You'll take Travis Kelsey. Yeah, I'll takes Kelsey, Trevor,
Trevor's trivers powerful.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
Stuff them mount Honestly, we're not going to play the more.
But we got so many drunk voicemails over the weekend.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
It's a good outlet.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
I was saying in the office. I feel like we've
saved at least three women from receiving a drunk call. Yeah,
that's so true over the weekend.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
I mean, I digress a little bit, but I got
home after the fight, and you know you came home.
You're trying to be quiet, kind of remove most of
your items of clothing elsewhere. So the jingle jangle of
the of the belt and the wallet and everything downstairs.
I did downstairs, and then a couple of glasses of water.
Brush my teeth downstairs using one of my kid's toothbrushes.
(24:28):
I mean, like up the stairs, get into the room.
And all I got was downstairs, and I was like, uh,
back down, back down to the Frank's room. My youngest child,
who has taken my position in the marital bed. He's starfished,
because that's what she is. He's on here. Get back downstairs, you.
So I went back down to the kids room and
(24:49):
she got safe from me. When you hear with.
Speaker 6 (24:53):
Yeah, anyway, was it that voice that's been awake for
like she hadn't just woken up there? No, No, that
one's terrifying when you come home and it's.
Speaker 3 (25:03):
Dark and you get there, Yeah, you can go soundstairs
and sleep. Yeah. Well it's not a yeah, I've been
awake for hours with this kid.
Speaker 6 (25:09):
Yeah yeah, And I'm like, okay, yeah, that powerful stuff,
all right?
Speaker 1 (25:14):
Another caller here your space.
Speaker 6 (25:18):
I thought the game is going to be the rip
off some Miles school and you can never beat the thing.
Speaker 4 (25:24):
But just watched it, and Jesus Christ, it was actually
quite good.
Speaker 3 (25:29):
I loved it pretty much and fuck South of Calory.
Well there we go. It was a compliment.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
Great feedback, great feed So we're in that disguise you reckon.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
They'll use that definitely. Yeah, I'm the next trailer. Yeah, yep.
So a game of two hours back again this Thursday
eight thirds. Yep.
Speaker 1 (25:48):
We can see when these voicemails are senter and that
was two forty in the morning.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
So and look, that was good, honest feedback because he
obviously had a few, and when you've had a few,
you tend to let the filters come down. But he
was complimentary.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
Yeah, yeah, he also enjoy things a bit more. I
think when you have the skin for he should probably
watch it again in the stark in the dark daylight.
But thank you for that, great honesty, great feedback. And
I will send that through disguise if they use it
at all for a promo. Not a caller here your
space go fellas.
Speaker 7 (26:16):
After watching that Storm Sharks game, I'm just putting it
out there. I don't think Jerome Hughes gets enough love
as a great New Zealander. He's been pulling the strings
of the Storm all year. Debatably one of the players
in the league. Whenever he plays with the Kiwis is
absolutely phenomenal. But we don't see he claim him was
one of our own. What do you reckon?
Speaker 1 (26:38):
It's because he is? Yeah, yeah, fuck Tomoka terrible, probably
the worst part of South Canterbury to bence for the
head to pick one. What we're talking about Jerome Herees.
I think it's because he lives in Melbourne, right, any
dude that lives in Australia, you kind of forget that
that Kiwi A lot of times, those that have been
(26:58):
in the NRL for years, you're like, oh, that's right.
It's only when they come back and play for the
Kiwis that you remember he's actually a New Zealander. So yeah, no,
but I agree with their caller and I think if
he really wants to solidify himself as a great New Zealander,
it's gonna have to come home play for the Warriors.
So Jerome here Is, if you're out there listening to this,
come home. It's the only way. It's the only way.
(27:19):
I'll give you a first pump, one last one caller
yours pace.
Speaker 4 (27:25):
Julane Welling conplan here, keep you feeling the curves away
from our teams in the future. All right, thank you,
and Anoya Cashuiras are just like all Australian stuff, fucking thick.
You do one easy. Honestly, they're disappearing at an alarming rate.
They're so stupid. No worries at all.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
All right, be a toy k thank you.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
That's a good way to win it. Be a tidy
kiwi ye. It's just a lot more wholesome than a
south Ken.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Yeah, unfear on you. It wasn't you that cursed them,
if it was anyone that was me, I was in
the room, you were in the room. So by proxy
you'r curse does get and and and the first bit
of positive support that I've had against this cassi.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
That one of against many though, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
But one. It's good to have someone in your corner.
And look, Wellington, I know you're HEARDing. If you're looking
for someone to blame it on, you can blame it
on us. It's not really a fib but we'll take it.
Speaker 3 (28:21):
And also you've got Auckland FC coming for your title
as well on the on the football front.
Speaker 1 (28:25):
Blame that one on us. All right, let's knock this
one on the head for a debut for the new set, I.
Speaker 3 (28:30):
Keep it's not really finished though. It's some stuff that's
going to go unto here.
Speaker 1 (28:34):
It'll be like a painting, I presume.
Speaker 3 (28:36):
Yeah, some sort of painting or a mural, a logo
neon Neon might blow out the camic, but anyway, it's well,
it's kind of eighty percent done.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Baby steps sor right. Thanks for joining us today on
their Gender podcast. We'll be back tomorrow, Friend, Tuesday episode
of the Gender Podcast. We'll see you then.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
You've been listening to the ACC's a gender podcast brought
to you by Export Ultra. For more episodes, like an
follow on iHeartRadio, well of you get your podcast
Live from a freshly refurbished Export Beer Garden studio and
brought to you, as always by Export Ultra, the beer
for here. This is the Agenda Podcast for Monday, the
sixteenth of September.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
The Agenda Podcast, the home of Sporting, Nonsense and clap Trap,
brought to you by Next sport A.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
Vultra Franz Banker Lane.
Speaker 3 (00:19):
Well it smells new.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
It does smell new, Yeah, I hope it sounds new
for those of you listening. We've just refurbished the studio.
And by the studio, I mean there's now a set. Yeah,
it's in the same studio.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
We've got a good backdrop. It's all the light only
the windows do we no, God No. All that means
is people can see in here. Like we said last week,
we lifted the curtains for the first time in years.
The place just about burst into flames when we did, so, Yeah,
it's about time. Although I do notice now that I
look at it, that the curtains are actually up and
you can't get back there to lower them, so.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
That could potentially be an oversight. But if you want
to see it, you can check it out on Instagram.
Look up the alternative common try collective on Instagram and
you can be one of the hundred to watch it today.
I've printed off four blank sheets of paper in front
of me. Yeah, so what do you got. I've got
one piece of paper, Yes, got some writing on it. Yes,
(01:13):
David Nika. Yes, we went and watched him fight. Yes,
Saturday night.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Yep, big Runway. I tell you that I was nervous
about the Runways first fight at quarter past six eleven.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Yeah, not to be before eleven.
Speaker 3 (01:27):
Yeah, and look we're talking about full catering as well,
aren't we. Yeah. And we had young Isaac on the
table and she's that bucket of beers and white claws.
We down did it?
Speaker 4 (01:41):
No?
Speaker 1 (01:41):
Well, what I found out was happening was they were
coming over and asking him and the notorious pants ban
Joel Harrison if the thing needed topping up. But I
think at the same time a different person was asking
you if it needed topping up as well. So when
we were ordering rounds of beers, we were doubling up
on ourselves.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
So yeah, it was like it was a mountain which yeah,
and they were getting warm. Well the problem this is
the thing.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
It also created a bit of a turbo sort of
effect where it started spoiling up because people saw the
amount of pass we had to get through and lifted
their tempo to keep track with that. So the point
where I actually had a spit take at one point
where I ended up spitting my drink all over the
long suffering Lauren was sitting next to me at the
table because Joel Harrison is telling me a story about
(02:27):
how he put one hundred dollars on David Yuka's fight
and he was paying. He's paying a dollar, a dollar
and four cents, so he vested, invested one hundred dollars
and won four dollars, but it was actually a bonus bit,
so he actually only won two dollars. I had the
same reaction you just did then, but had a mouthful
(02:48):
of white claw and it went all over Lauren's brand
new dress. So things got pretty pear shape there. And
you mentioned a long runway long time listeners of the
a SEC will remember sprayed around Scotty. Yes, it was
fortieth on the weekend.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
Yes, and here's fortieth started at two thirty in the afternoon.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Yeah, so we were well and truly up for it
by the time we got there.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
Luckily that we left spray around Scotty's party. Whim we
dead because poor Joe got hit up by a person
who was sticking up for the physio from England.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Yeah right, Oh that whole drum Yeah yeah got resurfaced.
Yeah great, that's good. I'm glad we left. And so
that the fights themselves. There were four heavyweight fights on
the undercard. Two of them were four round fights, and
I'd sort of got that I told you before we
went in there. I love betting on boxing cards and
(03:37):
MMA cards because you can bet on that fight when
or lost, then you can either reinvest or chase on
the next one.
Speaker 3 (03:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
So it's quite fun punting ringside, and I got into
the rhythm of things. I was like, oh, I see
how these fights are gone. There are only four rounds.
I'll bet on this next one to go the distance.
And so I did, and they came out and said,
these two gentlemen, we'll be fighting for ten rounds. I
was like, oh, someone's going down, and so at that
point I was kind of it's like beating the unders,
(04:06):
you know, like you're beating against excitement. So whils I
was sitting there just sweating. I don't talk about don't
don'tknok about. It was a good fight in the end,
and thankfully it did go the distance. Made a bit
of made a bit of coin on that one.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
I mean in the highlight for me was the guy
got smacked out of the ring. Yeah, I don't know
what fight there was, my meaner the third fight of
the night.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
As yes, the third last. It was a big heavyweight
two boppers and he got knocked basically unconscious but was
still sort of like staggering around and his ass went
out of the thing and old mate just clubbed him
again and he went flying out of the ring like
a WWE fight. That was definitely highlight of the.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
Of the night on it I end seeing poor carpiencies
kidneys burst live on stage.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Yeah, so a lot of people have been asking me
this morning about how I was the fight a little
bit disappointing, But he actually David Yuka let him up,
Like I know, the highlights didn't look that good because
he just sort of took and knee and then the
towel got thrown in and that was all she wrote.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
But it was a good fight. David Nika did light
that thought up. Every time he hit his kidneys. There
was a slap that went through the Vine Accident Center
and the crowd just went. It wasn't cheering, it was
just like.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
Oh yeah it was. It was like watching a man
at the at the heavy bag as hard as he
possibly could.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
Yeah, a lot of a lot of a lot more
females at the event than I was expecting. Any reason,
any reason for that?
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Do you think more than usual for a boxing card.
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Yeah, they might think it might be the David Niaker effect.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
It could be if you haven't seen on the old
Instagram thing. You know, there was where they all came
out the walkouts. There a lot of people crowded around.
I was, I wonder if we can get away. Fist
bump here on his way out and just got hung
out to dry there. But thankfully the security guard he
saved the day down through at the fist bump.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
You your first was hanging out there like an old
man's naphyla, and create to you he had well and
truly blanked you, Dave Nat and you just just kept
the first out there like you were just like you know,
I'm just I'm actually just paralyzed. And then the security
guard he came back to you and then like just
felt sorry for you, delivered you a first and then
(06:14):
you were like.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
And then tossed me out. Yeah. So David Yuka's family
were on the other side, and so he went over
over to them. You can't see he's just out of shot.
But I was waiting to see if he would turn
around and then but no he didn't. So yeah, just
utterly humiliated myself. Shut it to Jay Reeve for filming that.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
He dined out on that as well. I saw him
when I was on the way to the toilet and.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
He's like, yeah, that's out, Jack Maya.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
This is the blank you'll ever see.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
Yeah, it was. It was tough to watch. I tell
you what, if you're dusty, nothing will make you search
your soul more than seeing footage of yourself getting blanked
by David and there soon as we got there. So
it's a black tie event. I don't know what the
fuck that means. All I figured out is that black
tie doesn't mean you actually have to wear a black tie, right.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Yeah, I think it's it's strongly recommended.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
It's an indicator of the kind of because are in
bow tyes. Yeah, but then there was dudes in T
shirts and shorts there were, yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
But I was. They were the kind of people that
I wouldn't have stopped at the door.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
No, I think they were. They were friends and family
of some of the fighters.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
And I think a lot of them might have paid
cash for the table.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Yeah. So I get there first person. We see Laura
McGoldrick coming in off the long run up, but she'd
been at a lady's lunch. Yeah, ladies long lunch. Then
she came steaming in and she just walks up to
me and grabs my shirt and goes, who the fuck
were is lenen to a black tiving. I was like, Jesus,
I didn't know what the rules were. I haven't been
to a lot of black tie events. To be fair,
(07:47):
this is the only shit that fits me. I was like, Oh,
I thought I was looking pretty good. I went into
the toilet one stage.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
I think it was probably eight o'clock, and the toilets
were choco full of urinals and a big.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
Whoa, it's dressed to go by.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
And everyone's like yeah, yeah, and then I heard he
get the funk out of here, lane, Okay, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
I I went in there, used the facilities, and as
I was walking out, there was a line because there
were half as many sinks as there were urinals. Yeah,
urinals were packed. I was like, you know what, I'm
going to get away with us here. I'm just going
to walk out wash you. As soon as I walked out,
I just could just hear Mike Minogue from the back
of the grub and so I walked out. As soon
(08:38):
as I walked out there, producer Pugs Pugsy was there.
He guess kidd mate came over and shook my head.
So then, yeah, I saw Monogue later on he said,
that's going to get about half an hour's worth of
ear time on the big show.
Speaker 3 (08:51):
Wash washing hands at urinals, you have to urinating.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
Yeah, that's right. Well, Jason Hoyt doesn't work. I suppose.
I suppose at that point you wouldn't need to wash
your hands anyway. But I see that he's taken Instagram. Oh,
David Yuki. He wants to go again for the end
of the year. Yeah, I mean he barely got punched.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
Nah, no, not at all. I mean yeah, And I
think he said that when we talk to him. He
wants to, you know, just road to the title. He
wants to be fighting, you know, every four or five months. Yeah,
having something on the card, so yeah, but the end
of the year, it'd be great to do it again.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
Yeah, he's just gonna need to find someone because I think,
like as good as that carp and C dude was,
at some point in his career, I think it was
a bit of a shell of himself, to be fair.
He did fight only like a month or two ago
that Carpenin Feller, and then he took the fight on
three weeks notice. So he wasn't, you know, in tiptop shape,
but he got pieced up. It would be good to
see him go against a little bit stiffer competition, maybe
(09:44):
someone we've heard of, although I haven't heard of any
of the people in the Cruisewe No division, so be
interesting to see. But I'd like to go again. There's
something in the air when you're at the boxing. I
will will not though. There's something I noticed the last
time I went to a boxing event. The crowd's way quieter,
like you can hear a pin drop in there for
(10:04):
some reason.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
Yeah, we had a friends and family table behind us
of one of the fighters that yeah, they were going
nuts with My ears were ringing.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Yeah, for one of the fighters. This girl's screaming the
entire time, but for the rest of it you could
basically hear people's cutlery and yeah, shit, I think it's
partly tension, partly the fact you're all sitting around tables
having dinner.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
Yeah, that's that's a bit strange. Yeah, eating a steak
while some guy was getting his head pounded and about
ten meters away from you.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
I'd rather be here than in there. Yeah, But shout
out to them, and shout out to Duke for having
us there as well.
Speaker 3 (10:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Hopefully if they get another fight, we can get David
back in here. I can sort of yea, my grievance
with him just leaving me hanging yeap.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
I can't wait to show them the video.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Actually, yeah, hopefully I've seen it. Hopefully it feels terrible
about it. All right, let's take quick break. We'll come
back and talk a bit more sport. I want to
start with the Black Cats because they're playing Tri Lanka
in the first of two tests this week.
Speaker 3 (10:59):
Yes, scoll on when ball on Wednesday.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
These two tests are part of the World Test Championship,
correct which I've had a look at the standings. At
the moment, we sit third on the latter behind India
and Australia. We've played six matches Ossie have played nine.
In India have played twelve. That's ridiculous, but that works
in our favor because it's win percentage. It's the amount
(11:22):
of points that were available. How many of those have
you won? You get twelve points for a word. It's
very cricket. It's very confusing. Duckworth Lewis must have come
up with this fucking system. We're on thirty six I
think Australia on like ninety. England have played sixteen Test matches. Yeah,
which unfortunately drops them down to rank sixth because they've
had more opportunity to lose than anyone else.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
Yeah, and they lose. When they lose, they lose hard
because they go for baswell.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
But the interesting part about this test is not that
it starts on Wednesday. It's not that we're third on
the table. It's that we're taking a day off in
the middle of it. Have you've seen this? So it
starts Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, then they take Saturday off, then
they pick back up Sunday Monday. So this is going
to be a six day test all told. Because Sri
Lanka's election is on the Saturday. They can't have any
(12:10):
security there, so that's taking the day off so over
and can go I guess, or maybe it's because they
want to make sure that, you know, enough people vote
in the election.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
Just set up a voting booth in the stadium, Yeah,
have people vote on their way in. I think it's
more of security things. I know in India you cannot
tour India during any sort of elections because they can't
guarantee security for the event, right, because it's around the elections.
I think it's probably more around that. But rain is
forecast for the first five days of this test. Awesome,
(12:38):
Well it's a six day test, yes, and the sixth
day beautiful sunshine.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
Well, we'll get to get one day of action. Yeah,
and an election result.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
I think they've got better drainage in Gaul than they
have it in the India. Girl has been around for
a long time. Beautiful, beautiful stadium. It's got like a
fort running around it next to the ocean, I know
the one. Yeah, and it's quite it's quite a ground
that's quite close to Kiwi's hearts as well, because when
the tsunami hit, you know, the boxing Day tsunami. That's
that ground absolutely totaled and New Zealand Cricket and New
(13:10):
Zealand were quite instrumental in rebuilding that right, helping rebuild
that stadium in that ground. So it's an amazing place.
It's like the locations awesome.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
I's just hope it doesn't fucking rain the whole time.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Nahor there's no tsunamis. Have you ever been to Sri
Lanka before?
Speaker 3 (13:26):
Yeah, I've heard.
Speaker 1 (13:27):
I've heard nothing but great things about it.
Speaker 3 (13:29):
That is a great place. You have to ignore the
fact that you know, there was some sort of genocide
happened up in the hills with the canils. But it
is what you'd say are manageable India. Yeah, it's smaller, Yeah,
you can kind of drive around. It's got some great beaches,
great wildlife, great wildlife. They've got like a Safari park
in the liver where you can go and see leopards
(13:51):
and crocodiles and elephants and and there there native birders,
a jungle fowl which is a jungle chicken. Oh yeah,
they've got heaps of these jungle chickens running around and
they've got tea plantations up in the mountains as well.
They've got their famous train ride that all those Instagram
woundersoos themselves on it. I would highly recommend it. It's
(14:13):
like I was saying, if you're too scared to go
to India because it's a massive humanity Sri Lanka is here,
is he more manageable? And the national sport rugby? Yeah,
they fucking love rugby. Really.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
They obviously suck at it though, because they're never at
the World Cup.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
No, but you go over there and there's a lot
of how you say it, contracted overseas players right there,
like loads of fig and dues, tongu and gentlemen. Yeah,
because the military is quite big on rugby, so they've
got the strongest team. Yeah. I was quite surprised. I
had we had a guide with him were there, because
you pay one hundred yueist dollars and you get a
driver in a car and they take it around everywhere.
(14:48):
And his favorite players, Richie mcare I seen him in
all that ex jusey afterwards, So it's just the biggest
Richie McCaw fan. So weird going to Sri Lanka and
you think it's all cricket, but rugby.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Yeah, it's full on it.
Speaker 4 (14:58):
You know.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
I've got a lot of friends who have been there
and sent rave reviews about it. Apparently, if you ask
the right way, they're not averse to the fucking mana's.
Speaker 3 (15:07):
Over there, Oh no, especially on the beaches surf beaches.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
Or apparently through the Safari Park where one of my
friends allegedly had been offered the fucking manas and then
stone to the girls watching a leopard drag a deer
into a tree.
Speaker 3 (15:24):
We went through the Safari Park with our guide and
we hadn't seen a leopard, and he was pretty guarded
that we hadn't provided a leopard for us. So you
have to be out of the park by six pm
otherwise the guides get fined and everything. And it was
well past six and he saw a leopard in the distance,
and so we saw the leopard, took fight, came ran
right past us, went onto the bush and he's like, okay,
(15:46):
we have to go now, but I just have to
do one more thing, and he popped the boot off
the the jeep open, put his hands all through the grease,
greased up his face and everything all over his head,
and then bum rushed the gate and said he'd broken
down and he had to fix the good know what
he was like, what's he doing? Because he was like,
did the things they've broken down? I had to appear
(16:09):
to change the oil and like he was just covered,
covered himself and ship. It was so good.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
They would have seen him coming off. He comes home
made again, he's going to try that he's broken down.
Excuse Yeah, I can't be bothered with an argument today.
Just let him go now.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
Highly recommend you, if you get a chance, get over there,
get out of You're flying to Columbo and you get
the fuck out of there. And he'd straight up to
kind of candy up in the mountains. Yeah, gol on
the coast. If you're a surfing too, they've got great
surf beaches.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
Maybe that should be one of our next trips.
Speaker 3 (16:39):
Yeah. And that's where they fish off the poles. You
know you see those dudes standing on poles.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
Oh, yeah, that's where they do that.
Speaker 3 (16:44):
Oh it's crazy. They're just at the top of his pole,
just catching tiny fish and just tucking into get.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
A boat like Pilchards. Yeah, powerful stuff. The NBC across
the weekend. You will be heartbroken to know that has
been retained the shield. Wellington did not win. It was
like almost the last minute buzzerb to try to a
block by the name of Kor and Tom Moyfilow. It
was a tremendous try, Like this individual effort broke. Oh
(17:09):
I made something out of nothing and then won it. Unfortunately.
Does that mean we've cursed Wellington?
Speaker 3 (17:15):
Yeah? Well look Brad Shields, nice guy. Yeah, terrifying man.
I wouldn't want to get on his bed side. You
may have correct, Yeah, because he did say, we said
why you see, we'll talk to you after you win
the shield.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
I was hoping this wouldn't be brought up.
Speaker 3 (17:30):
And then he said, have you dis cursed us? But
I don't. We don't. We don't have a history in cursing.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
No. Yeah, I did say, well, if you win the shield,
you left to come on this weekend. And I was
saying after after we interviewed him, I was like, I
only said that because if they lose, he's not gonna
want to come on here and talk to us. So
please welcome Brad Shields to the show.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
I think Tasman got it for the got it for
the summer. You're against my vibe because I think that
was their biggest threat. There was the two unbeaten teams
and they closed them out. So I can't see has
been losing it.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
No, yeah that is. I mean, look, I don't think
we cursed them, but selfishly I am grateful that it
is staying in the South Island because that's now a
bus trip for South Canterbury, who gave me a heart
attack over the weekend.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
I did yous come in?
Speaker 1 (18:15):
No it didn't, so our three way I think Carl's
horse did.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
Oh yeah, I don't care about car need.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
I can't catch them.
Speaker 3 (18:23):
Yeah, my cricket one didn't come in. They had seven
six is Australia not more than eight and a half apoint.
Speaker 1 (18:28):
I had South Africa, South Africa, South Canterbury to minus
nineteen and a half. I played North Otago. They were
down by twenty points at halftime and I checked that
and I was like, fuck, mabe, this could be it.
And then they came back and won it, and I
just think like we're gonna have to I think we
have to get their coach or something on because it
must be terrifying having I think it's like almost forty
(18:50):
games on the trot.
Speaker 3 (18:51):
Now you're a target Yeah, you're a target see everyone.
That's what Like, that's what Auckland were for years during
the eighties. Yeah, when they had this shield, they were
a target for everyone.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
Yeah. But and like obviously, I know you never plan
to lose a game of rugby anyway, so it's not
going to impact it that much. But they must be
getting the speed wabbles now. We'll have to get them
on later on. But in other rugby news, we didn't
talk about it on Friday, but the news came out
that they are changing the finals format for Super Rugby
next year.
Speaker 3 (19:18):
Do you understand it? I like to think I do.
To the point of the ranking things, So six teams qualify.
See first place Sex, you can place fifth. Yeah, that
kind of thing. But first and second have a second chance.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
Ah what No, So whoever losers one of the losing teams,
whoever the highest ranked losing team is, gets a second
chance the next week.
Speaker 3 (19:49):
Okay, so if number one beats Sex but two losers
to five, two gets another hone.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
Ah, so there's going to be three winners that go
through to the next round. They need one more to
make up. And it's the highest rank of the losers.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
Why do they do this.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
That's so stupid, and I saw My first instinct was
and I've seen other journalists write this. I think Dylan
Cleaver had the same point was they just wanted to
copy NRL, but because they're rugby, they have to be like,
we didn't copy NROL, we come up with their own one.
So they've made a shitter version of what the NRL
has because the NROL one is confusing. I have to
(20:28):
look at the picture to be able to understand what's
going on. But the top two ranked teams, if they
win their first match or the top four throw, they
get a buy the next round. That's what you're playing for,
and then if you lose, you get a second bite
of the cherry of the next round. You get to
stay in. That makes sense. See what you're playing for
is a bye next week, and if you lose then
you have to fight for your life the following week.
(20:49):
That I can understand. What I can't understand is so
I one players, but then if they win, now you're
waiting on the next game because of that team wins
now you could go through. But if the other team wins,
now you're out because of the rankings. I don't know
hopefully it makes teams jocking for position a bit more
intense throughout the season.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
They want it because you want to secure one or two,
don't you. Yeah, that's because that's your lifeline.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
Yeah, even even three, because if you lost in your third,
no one else would lose but be higher ranked than you.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
Oh yeah, because of one and two win.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
Yeah, but then four. The thing is, and I hate
when people come out and say, oh, it's not that confusing,
like it's actually really easy to understand. It's like, you
can't just say that because it's fucking not. I don't
understand it, you know, So you you can tell me
that I should until the cows come home. I'm fucking not.
And this is what we're gonna have to do with
all next year as well. Hang on, did they so
(21:45):
they win? But then they at least.
Speaker 3 (21:47):
I've reduced it to sex. I mean, but they've had
to have they.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
Yeah, they had to because yeah, well there's eleven teams.
Teams were making the playoffs that had won like two games.
It was a bit ridiculous and just quickly on sport
as well. The Blackburns lost over the weekend twenty four
to twelve in front of forty one and a half
thousand people at Twickenham. Did they curse themselves by hugging
the King? Wh Is that a curse? Is that a curse?
Speaker 3 (22:14):
I don't know. I don't know if he holds any
sort of sways the old King Charles m trophy head.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
Maybe not. I'm I'm just trying to grasp the straws
for some sort.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
Of It's he shrinking and his appendages are getting bigger,
his fingers are getting fatter, his ears are getting bigger.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
It certainly seems that way, doesn't it. God, could you
imagine what his feet look like? King Charles, get the
dogs out. We need to see it.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
But like twenty four twelve, that's not They were expected
to potentially struggle a little bit against the world number
one in Twickenham, So twenty four to twelve sounds like
they gave it a good I didn't see any of it,
but it sounds like that score line, doesn't they.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Gave it a good note? Yeah, that's right. I don't
think this is panic bells, but we do love to
just hit the panic button whenever a New Zealand rugby
team loses. Yeah, all right, let's take a break when
we come back, We'll get to yours.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
Please, yours please, brought to you by Leader Home of
the Las Top.
Speaker 1 (23:11):
We have four to get through. First caller, yours please, Lads.
Speaker 5 (23:15):
I'm sitting in the pub watching the AFL and I
just said a brain wave. G Laying looks like treasure
Trevor Scalf. Treasure Trevor Scalf, Travis Kels if g Lay
look after himself. Too many fucking knife parties in his
life and brain cancers anyway, horo fuck what if your
(23:35):
team Trevors Scalse's plays for.
Speaker 1 (23:38):
Look, I'll take that petty girls really tying on on there?
He is petty.
Speaker 3 (23:42):
Come down, mate, You'll take Travis Kelsey. Yeah, I'll takes Kelsey, Trevor,
Trevor's trivers powerful.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
Stuff them mount Honestly, we're not going to play the more.
But we got so many drunk voicemails over the weekend.
Speaker 3 (23:55):
It's a good outlet.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
I was saying in the office. I feel like we've
saved at least three women from receiving a drunk call. Yeah,
that's so true over the weekend.
Speaker 3 (24:05):
I mean, I digress a little bit, but I got
home after the fight, and you know you came home.
You're trying to be quiet, kind of remove most of
your items of clothing elsewhere. So the jingle jangle of
the of the belt and the wallet and everything downstairs.
I did downstairs, and then a couple of glasses of water.
Brush my teeth downstairs using one of my kid's toothbrushes.
(24:28):
I mean, like up the stairs, get into the room.
And all I got was downstairs, and I was like, uh,
back down, back down to the Frank's room. My youngest child,
who has taken my position in the marital bed. He's starfished,
because that's what she is. He's on here. Get back downstairs, you.
So I went back down to the kids room and
(24:49):
she got safe from me. When you hear with.
Speaker 6 (24:53):
Yeah, anyway, was it that voice that's been awake for
like she hadn't just woken up there? No, No, that
one's terrifying when you come home and it's.
Speaker 3 (25:03):
Dark and you get there, Yeah, you can go soundstairs
and sleep. Yeah. Well it's not a yeah, I've been
awake for hours with this kid.
Speaker 6 (25:09):
Yeah yeah, And I'm like, okay, yeah, that powerful stuff,
all right?
Speaker 1 (25:14):
Another caller here your space.
Speaker 6 (25:18):
I thought the game is going to be the rip
off some Miles school and you can never beat the thing.
Speaker 4 (25:24):
But just watched it, and Jesus Christ, it was actually
quite good.
Speaker 3 (25:29):
I loved it pretty much and fuck South of Calory.
Well there we go. It was a compliment.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
Great feedback, great feed So we're in that disguise you reckon.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
They'll use that definitely. Yeah, I'm the next trailer. Yeah, yep.
So a game of two hours back again this Thursday
eight thirds. Yep.
Speaker 1 (25:48):
We can see when these voicemails are senter and that
was two forty in the morning.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
So and look, that was good, honest feedback because he
obviously had a few, and when you've had a few,
you tend to let the filters come down. But he
was complimentary.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
Yeah, yeah, he also enjoy things a bit more. I
think when you have the skin for he should probably
watch it again in the stark in the dark daylight.
But thank you for that, great honesty, great feedback. And
I will send that through disguise if they use it
at all for a promo. Not a caller here your
space go fellas.
Speaker 7 (26:16):
After watching that Storm Sharks game, I'm just putting it
out there. I don't think Jerome Hughes gets enough love
as a great New Zealander. He's been pulling the strings
of the Storm all year. Debatably one of the players
in the league. Whenever he plays with the Kiwis is
absolutely phenomenal. But we don't see he claim him was
one of our own. What do you reckon?
Speaker 1 (26:38):
It's because he is? Yeah, yeah, fuck Tomoka terrible, probably
the worst part of South Canterbury to bence for the
head to pick one. What we're talking about Jerome Herees.
I think it's because he lives in Melbourne, right, any
dude that lives in Australia, you kind of forget that
that Kiwi A lot of times, those that have been
(26:58):
in the NRL for years, you're like, oh, that's right.
It's only when they come back and play for the
Kiwis that you remember he's actually a New Zealander. So yeah, no,
but I agree with their caller and I think if
he really wants to solidify himself as a great New Zealander,
it's gonna have to come home play for the Warriors.
So Jerome here Is, if you're out there listening to this,
come home. It's the only way. It's the only way.
(27:19):
I'll give you a first pump, one last one caller
yours pace.
Speaker 4 (27:25):
Julane Welling conplan here, keep you feeling the curves away
from our teams in the future. All right, thank you,
and Anoya Cashuiras are just like all Australian stuff, fucking thick.
You do one easy. Honestly, they're disappearing at an alarming rate.
They're so stupid. No worries at all.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
All right, be a toy k thank you.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
That's a good way to win it. Be a tidy
kiwi ye. It's just a lot more wholesome than a
south Ken.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Yeah, unfear on you. It wasn't you that cursed them,
if it was anyone that was me, I was in
the room, you were in the room. So by proxy
you'r curse does get and and and the first bit
of positive support that I've had against this cassi.
Speaker 3 (28:07):
That one of against many though, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
But one. It's good to have someone in your corner.
And look, Wellington, I know you're HEARDing. If you're looking
for someone to blame it on, you can blame it
on us. It's not really a fib but we'll take it.
Speaker 3 (28:21):
And also you've got Auckland FC coming for your title
as well on the on the football front.
Speaker 1 (28:25):
Blame that one on us. All right, let's knock this
one on the head for a debut for the new set, I.
Speaker 3 (28:30):
Keep it's not really finished though. It's some stuff that's
going to go unto here.
Speaker 1 (28:34):
It'll be like a painting, I presume.
Speaker 3 (28:36):
Yeah, some sort of painting or a mural, a logo
neon Neon might blow out the camic, but anyway, it's well,
it's kind of eighty percent done.
Speaker 1 (28:44):
