Speaker 1 (00:00):
Live for the Export Beer Gardens Studio and brought to
you by Export Ultra the Beer for Here. This is
the Agenda Podcast for Wednesday, the tenth of July.

Speaker 2 (00:08):
The Agenda Podcast, the home of Sporting Nonsense and the
Clap Trap, brought to you by Export Vulture.

Speaker 1 (00:15):
Morning Lane. You're in the middle of school holiday. Hell yep,
and we're also thrown in the mix of dog.

Speaker 3 (00:21):
Yeah, we've got someone at our house filming a flooring advert.

Speaker 1 (00:26):
Oh got good flooring bear well apparently.

Speaker 3 (00:30):
But they've had to leave the house at seven am
with all the kids and the dog in school holidays,
so the dogs another It's a real, real kind of night. Yeah,
better left field for me because I'm a big anti
bring the dogs to work. Yes kind of guy you are,
and here you are. Yeah, but that's for necessity. I
came in one door into a room, locked it in

(00:51):
that room, and I'm going to go straight at the
back door.

Speaker 1 (00:53):
I'm not going to parade it round looking for hugs.

Speaker 3 (00:56):
I'm not going to let it shit all over the
floor and then rub it in with a non absorbent
paper towel.

Speaker 1 (01:02):
Well, I don't know what it's doing in there right now.
To be fair if there was a room to shoot.
And it's that because genuinely the other day I thought
it had stepped in dog shit and it turned out
it was these boxes that were sitting next to my desk. Yeah,
that had.

Speaker 3 (01:14):
The white ferns signed bats and the yes yeah one
of those demauts will send to Yes, yep, we'll still
get a couple.

Speaker 1 (01:21):
But I moved them into that room there because that's
not like shit.

Speaker 3 (01:24):
Okay, don't blame my dog. Then people going it like ship,
I'm going to go to the croocket.

Speaker 1 (01:29):
Crookd bats another steaming pile of dog ship that's on
the floor. I happy birthday for yesterday. Thank you.

Speaker 3 (01:35):
Obviously took the day off to focus on what was
what was important to you, and that was hanging out
with your your partner, your life partner and partner.

Speaker 1 (01:42):
Yeah yeah, we did nothing too raucous to to report
back after that. Once you get over a certain age,
birthdays just sort of come and go, don't they do.
You'd almost rather not mark the occasion.

Speaker 3 (01:53):
Not a lot of coming, just heaps to going, heaps
to go.

Speaker 1 (01:57):
And I said to my partner this year, I was like, look, genuinely,
don't get me anything, like whatever, give me card, whatever,
And when guys say that, we genuinely mean that. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:07):
Okay, So if he's any female listeners out there, when
it says, don't worry about it, I don't want anything,
we actually mean it, not like you guys when I
say you guys women who say don't give me anything,
and then as soon as you don't, they just text
all their friends.

Speaker 1 (02:20):
Yes, yeah, they didn't give me anything. It's because they
don't want to ask for it. They don't want to
be seen to be asking for it. They want you
to be like, I want to do this way. I
want I want to whereas dudes and they said I
give me they genuinely meant just I'm sweetly Yeah, I
happily just park up on the couch, do nothing for
a day at KFC and get a BJ And I
did two out of three of those things. KFC was shut,

(02:43):
but it wasn't. It was open. It's always open. So
that's been my day. But the reason was I was like, look,
we're going over to Germany this year. I've got a
special envoy. On the way back, I have to do
a tour of the Middle East to try wrangle up again. Yeah,
to try and wrangle up funds for podcast washing. Yes,

(03:05):
trying to get the Saudi suit case.

Speaker 3 (03:06):
And we're not just talking about us, we're talking about
washing the entire sports podcast Yeah, we're not just thinking
about ourselves.

Speaker 1 (03:13):
Obviously we'd be at the top of the list. We'll
take our casts, yeah, absolutely, But I mean any of
those young podcasts is out there looking at and even
the old podcast is out there. Wil Simmons can have
a bone. Yeah, we'd throw Salites our bone too. You know,
he's trying to get things back up and running with
the Sports Cafe.

Speaker 3 (03:30):
He'd happily accept the outy money. We'll wash those guys
and they take them from strimps to strength.

Speaker 1 (03:34):
But to do that because we don't have the money yet,
don't need a little bit of money to fund that
trip around there. So that's why I said for my birthday,
I don't want anything. I'd rather have the money that
you'd spend them in. Now over there with my very
important missions. So you can buy a dishdash. So I
can buy a dishtash and you know, blend it, get
a crispy fade type beard. Yeah. Well, the cat had
other plans krok on the Friday, didn't eat all the

(03:55):
way through to my birthday. So all day yesterday in
the vet and all that money that I told her
save wiped gone. How much did it cost to kill
the cat? Well, this is a thang. How much petrol
would have taken it back over a cat and the driveway? None?
I know petrol's expensive, but they've just taken the regional
field tex off would have been about twenty cents. But no,

(04:16):
I'll tell you what. It's a she's an expensive habit. Well,
and the other thing is this is my own fault
for not having any sort of insurance. I generally go
no insurance on anything and just risk it. I'm like,
over the lifetime of a car, a pet, not a house.
That's an exception. Yeah. Health, No, I don't have any
health insurance. I'm just like, I'll roll the dice, and
I figured it's going to be cheaper. Wow? Or was

(04:37):
I wrong on this one? Exciting opportunity for anyone that
wants to be the pet insurance sponsor of the Agenda podcast.
Good fucking do it it? Yeah? Yeah, so yeah, anyway,
the old cadade strikes again, and it's wiped out the debt.
But yesterday I did have the chance to sit down
and listen to the podcast You and Joe and I
wanted to address someone that DMed the show and was like,

(05:01):
we should the FUX South Canterbury Social Club jerseys. We
should sell them and then send the funds back to
the Heartland team so that they can go and challenge
for the Shield. I literally posted that as soon as
that thing came up. Did you I feel like someone
read my comment. I don't think they initially intentionally plagiarized it.
I think they read it, went away and then we're
in the middle of the night. Well, I've got an idea,

(05:22):
but he was. He was suggesting any team that win
the Heartland I was suggesting any team we play against.

Speaker 3 (05:27):
Okay, now, he was suggesting any team that win the
Heartland competition to help fund their Ramfly Shield challenge the
following year we create merch for Yeah. Well, now, and
you're saying, as South Canterbury have won at the last seven.

Speaker 1 (05:39):
Years, three years, so nothing's going to change there. Now
I'm saying that I had that idea and I feel
like it was plagiarized. But yeah, they've won every year
for the last three years, so well, let's start.

Speaker 3 (05:51):
It's crowdfund because they're going to have to play either
Whiteat or Hawks Bay.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
Yeah, it was Hawks Bay this year. They couldn't afford
to get up there. And I feel like we could
have done something about it, if you know, because the
story didn't come out until after it was already too late.
Some people are saying they didn't want to go just
purely because they'd give another spanking. Yeah, but why not
go out there and get a spanking. It's the only
game they've lost since what two thousand and one, and
Hawks Bay may share some of the reason. That's a

(06:20):
good point. Different stuff up there, different kind of reason.
They've got different supplies. I wanted to address. Oh, the
other thing I heard you said on the podcast was
the chat about Graham and the review thing.

Speaker 3 (06:30):
They do do that every week every week he stands
in that boardroom yes yeah, and justifies either bad decisions
or good decisions yes.

Speaker 1 (06:37):
And this is why it pisses me off so much,
because this happens almost every week, and it's like they'll
come out on Monday and say, yeah, that shouldn't have
been a penalty, or it should have been a penalty
blah blah blah, and it's like, okay, well now what
And even in that clip that you played yesterday, he
was like, it's not good enough. You know, we expect
to do better. It's like win because how many weeks
in a row have you fucking stood up here and

(06:58):
said the exact same thing? So at what point are
you is saying it's not like it's not good enough? Okay?

Speaker 3 (07:03):
Well there were There's no consequence, isn't it. But I
suppose that's them trying to be transparent. And I suppose
it's wets where it's a little bit different to Rugby
because Rugby has never come out no with that kind
of analysis on referees, because otherwise they'd go that Georgian
referee and go.

Speaker 1 (07:18):
Yeah yep, he was that probably might yeah, yeah, I know,
and you're right, it is and if it to be
transparent and to try and calm things down, but when
things like this happen, it just infuriates people. I'd almost
rather not hear that from them, you know what I mean?
And then I know, if you're them, you blood, well,
then what do you want us to do?

Speaker 4 (07:35):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (07:36):
You can't you keep laying what do you want us
to do? Well, what I want is you've got the bunker.
You've got two people sitting in that bunker, you got
a million replays. You're stopping the game down for the
shit anyway? Get it right? Or been the bunker? Yeah,
you can't. There can't be a review. That's the whole
point of the bunker is to review what's going on
the field. And he still sucked it up. It's like

(07:56):
the bunker of they can only concentrate on one thing
at a time. That was like they were focusing on
he'd neck in contact. They didn't notice that it was
seven seconds late? Yeah, how how can so? You couldn't
see you didn't have the ball anyway? What I reckon
the fix is because for that referee, I already can't

(08:18):
remember who the referee was. He's going to go back
to his Sydney apartment and none of his friends are
ever going to bring it up with them because they're
not Warriors fans. No one that he sees in the
street this legism is ever going to bring it up
because he's not at the pubs in Auckland in New
Zealand and crush it. So what I want is a
bit of accountability because there's an unconscious bias against the Warriors,
and it's that they're not going to ever get called

(08:39):
out for it. Let's move all the refs in New
Zealand then step one, yes, put them up in South Auckland.
Step two the players, if they have a shocker, they
are expected to front up and talk to the media,
and the media tear strips off them. Yeah, you dropped
this ball, you missed this tackle, This was careless. You
guys could have won if you had done this, You
missed the cack whatever. Put the riff up there, I

(09:01):
guess so. Like, but then if you are I'm gathering this.

Speaker 3 (09:07):
They struggle to recruit referees from junior level all the
way through volunteering, all the way through to the professional level.
And if you're if you're a volunteer and you're like,
I want to be an NROL riff and then you've
seen an NRA l rif getting scorn of shreds from
making bad decisions like.

Speaker 1 (09:24):
I just stick to concrete lane, Well then here's another
layer to that. They can wear whatever sponsors apparel they
want in that interview as well, So this now becomes
a cash generator for them. So they're going to sit
in front of it, and this clip is going to
go that one of the late shot from the weak
gutted Dog jam and Salmon that would have gone viral.

(09:44):
Everyone's playing it absolutely everywhere. He sets up there with
an acc a gender podcast shit, and then we pay
him in an export ultras And it's the roundabout.

Speaker 3 (09:55):
Way of having first hand witness the state of referees
in age group rugby.

Speaker 1 (10:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (10:02):
I think it's a tough road finding people to do it.
We had a guy in the weekend who lost his
complete rag at an under twelves team started calling all
the players seeing next Tuesdays under twelve yeap eleven years old. Yeah,
and he was calling them seeing next Tuesdays. This is
the referee by the way, Wow, he absolutely lost his mind. Yeah,
and so if that's the state of it, we probably

(10:24):
need to encourage him a bit more. And maybe I
don't know, it needs to be a memore a positive flight.
He wasn't he wasn't in a good mental state when
he was That referee got mentally disintegrated by eleven year olds.

Speaker 1 (10:35):
Yeah, that's that's weak. I don't know. There needs to
be some sort of it was silverdelle those we can't
just keep having this happen, and it's like, okay, so
you've done at us again? Yeah, and that was like sorry,
I know, well, how many times would you It's one
of these things.

Speaker 3 (10:52):
Beginning to live with it, and now I think that's
where they how the Warriors, I think for the first time,
I think it was last year, they had a bit
of a come to Jesus moment where they are like,
this is our lot. We're always going to get the
rubber of the grass while we have to play an
extra ten percent better than the other team to actually
yeah when but.

Speaker 1 (11:10):
It's become even harder because the six again thing. You
don't even know what the six again was for and
you never stopped the reviewer, so you'll never see that.
So it's like, yeah, yes, we're getting those ten percent
extra calls. Now they are even more disguised, so it's like, fuck,
how can you actually anyway? Speaking of what every week?

Speaker 3 (11:28):
Speaking of which, the penalty that got against Damie McKenzie
iMac was it a penalty or was a scrum?

Speaker 1 (11:36):
Was it a scrum or a penalty a time waste?
They call it a short anyway, So they're bringing bringing
the shot clock to the big screen. This has driven me,
it's the most rugby shit of all time to be like, hey,
we've got a shot clock. You're like, okay, where is it? Yeah,
because when they brought shot clocks into basketball, every high
school gym in the country had one. Whether it worked
or not, they had one. It's on top of the

(11:57):
fucking hope that you're shooting at cricket, have a cracket,
have a clock. Shot Now a shot clock.

Speaker 3 (12:02):
Yeah, so between overs that actually counts down?

Speaker 1 (12:05):
Oh really yeah?

Speaker 3 (12:06):
So World Cup you would have seen that they have
a minute to change in.

Speaker 1 (12:10):
Yeah, that's it. And so you can't bring in a
rule like a shot clock and not have the shot
clock there. Yeah, it makes no sense because how One,
how's the kicker supposed to know? Two? It adds a
bit of drama for the for the fans as well,
because they're watching the thing Jannis and the Greek freak.
He was taking so long to shoot his free throws
that they brought in a shot clock for that, And

(12:32):
so because fans were sitting on the sideline counting as
he's shooting his free remember that. Yeah, and so now
they've had to bring in the shot clock there. But
it's like, I don't know, you can't say you've brought
on a shot clock when you actually haven't. And if
you're not gonna the clock, where's the shot clock? Where's
the clock? Yeah? Exactly, you haven't brought in a shot
clock because there isn't one. I can't see it. Don't
leave it up to Georgian referee who's under immense pressure

(12:55):
just to blow the whistle. Also, like, you know, so
we go one Mississippi two Missus be how long does
that take to say? In Georgian? It could be way quicker? Yeah,
evidently it was. He's he's like doing, what's the biggest
river in Europe? The Danube? One Danube? Two Danius. It's
got quicker than one Mississippi. Yeah, that's right, that's a
good point. One one Tigris one New Friddy's one. Why uh?

(13:20):
But what I don't understand this weekend is going to
be I know there's a massive screen at one end. Oh,
there is another screen at the other end, but it's
off to the side. I suppose that's good enough, isn't it? Yeah?
And yeah, and it's what is it?

Speaker 3 (13:34):
I think, but I heard in Super Rugby the referee,
well go you got you got the twenty seconds, yeah,
you got fifteen, you got, you've got ten seconds.

Speaker 1 (13:44):
Yeah, Like I've heard that Georgian riverage is iced every
one out. Yeahs last ten minutes. Yeah. He was like,
wasn't talking anyone, He was like, fact fair in fact,
don't be the one who makes the zep Yeah, because
you know, planes get shot down for this kind of
ship back where he's from. So I don't know, there's
going to be a shock. Like that'll be the end
of that. We'll never have to deal with it again.
Just quickly before we go to an air break. Lulusun,

(14:06):
who's been the biggest story of the sporting world in
New Zealand here for the last three days. She got
knocked out this morning out of three sets. So she
made a good, good fist of it. Knocked out of
the competition. She became the first New Zealand woman to
reach the Wimbledon quarter finals in the open era. She
lost to Croati has done a Vickage in three sets.
The match against Vickage, because she had to qualify, was
her eighth match, but Vickage only this was her fifth. Yeah,

(14:29):
so you know, if you if you shift, you know,
time adjusted. She actually won Wimbledon.

Speaker 3 (14:34):
Yeah, from tier now as well, from tennis club. I
heard the chairman of the tennis club getting interviewed.

Speaker 1 (14:42):
Yeah, it's pretty funny.

Speaker 3 (14:43):
It's pretty it's pretty funny, like they've just got a
club with you know, three or four courts.

Speaker 1 (14:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (14:48):
She spent a few teenage years there, and she would
spank all the senior men's champions as a thirteen year old,
and then when she comes home for holidays, she just
brings them up and goes, can I use a court
for a bit? I need can you get me some
people to head it angst? And again they roll out
the champion men's senior player. It just gets schooled.

Speaker 1 (15:05):
They'll probably take the summer off this time around.

Speaker 3 (15:09):
They might have to hire Andreagison's dragon or whatever to
spit balls back.

Speaker 1 (15:13):
Down at here. Yeah, she might go and train in
the glow womb caves, just hitting balls into the glow
womb caves all night. But anyway, it was it was
a massive effort and it's good stuff because really got
the country and behind.

Speaker 3 (15:23):
It's good stuff because I had no idea, we had
even a professional woman's player on the circuit.

Speaker 1 (15:30):
You.

Speaker 3 (15:30):
Yeah, and if someone said it, what's the name, I wouldn't.

Speaker 1 (15:34):
I wouldn't have a close So great, it's great. On
the game lat she plays with Coco Golf, Paula red Cliff, Yeah,
Paula Redcliffe, Danuel Redclif don't know we do have one.
But yeah, you're right, I didn't know that. I didn't know.
Bring on, bring on the US Open, and that everyone
loves her. They've asked for her racket to chuck in
the museum there as well, and no, yeah, they want

(15:57):
to put it in Wimbledon. I'm just slid off his
chair laughing there. I think there was a coughing fit.
I don't know if i'd stopped down for too long
that if I was the wimbled miss him, I mean
I would, But like if I'm is it the furtherest
a qualifier has got and wimbled? I want to say
a canoe. She was in the US Open. Yeah, okay,

(16:22):
so it's a key we related one anyway, God blives her.
It was great work. I think the US opens next
on the Yes tour as far as the Grand Slams go.

Speaker 3 (16:29):
So the way she smacks it the way. She's got
a pretty high risk game. She absolutely goes for the winners,
and you know, if you smash into the net, if
you go long. But obviously, due to her getting as
father the majority we're in that would that be conducive
to her? This is me blindly going through tennis. Ye
would a hard court be a better surface for her?

(16:50):
If she's absolutely smoking it rather than the grass so
she's a little bit slower, or it's a little bit lower,
or the fact that the grass takes a bit of
heat off actually amplifies her advantage because she's then heading
it that much harder than everyone else.

Speaker 1 (17:04):
Again, we're out of our lane. Here, our lane. Who's
the best tennis player? You know? Who knows tennis? One
got anyone? Wells played Wells plays like a Steff old
Man down at Ymria Rackets. Yeah, yeah, that's a cultural thing.
I think. Well, we're going to find out at the
US Open, aren't we. Yeah, that's a few weeks away.
We have to get a tennis expert onto to break

(17:25):
that down. All right, We're going to take a quick
break and we come back. We're going to swerve way
out of our lane again with a bit more Euros chat.
All right, the Europs are going on at them, you
already upset them. We've been watching a lot of the
Europe's lately. We watched them over breakfast, over the weekend
and this morning again on in the office, and everyone's
crowded around because we in our office there's heaps of

(17:47):
TV screens, but we're the only ones with the remote
so we can change the sports.

Speaker 3 (17:51):
Yeah, we're the only TV that you can actually shift
the channel.

Speaker 1 (17:56):
Everyone else has corporate propaganda, yeah, getting brainwashed, but we
always have it on. So people start crowding around, and
it's amazing that people who are into the Euros of
the Europs at the moment.

Speaker 3 (18:08):
Well, this is the pointy end of Europe's so that's
why it's And people are interested in England are involved. Yeah,
I mean if it was non England, I don't know
af the interest levels would be that.

Speaker 1 (18:19):
It was a couple of former Yugoslavs, then maybe not.
But this morning Spain beat France two one two one
a goldfest compared to the rest of the games. Yeah,
it was. It was. It was almost a goal of
half hour in that game. Also, Spain have a child
in their team. I don't know if you've seen this. No,
this sixteen year old in their team. And Spain is

(18:41):
a big country who soccer is their main sport. So
to be sixteen and to make it, and like, how
good must this could have been just a few months ago?
It was fifteen? You know, what were you doing when
you were sixteen? Nothing? This is I think I think
about this all the time. You know, every now and
then you talk about when did you know you weren't
going to be an All Black? For me, it was basketball,

(19:01):
you know, because I made the North Otago team when
I was a kid, and I was like, I'm gonna
make the NBA here. And then I was watching the
two thousand and eight Olympics and Ricky Rubio was playing
again for Spain and he was fifteen and I was
fifteen two, and I was like, ah, you're probably not
gonna make it, am I if he's already in the
Olympics playing against Lebron and Kobe and shit, And I'm like, Otago,

(19:25):
you have enough players to make the team. So I
got in, you're crossing over kids from South Canterbury. Yeah, yeah,
South Otago, Eastga fuck Ito. So yeah, but I think
that would have been a big wake up call for
a lot of sixteen year old soccer players. Yeah. Oh,
because it's not like there's any shortage of Spanish soccer players. Yeah,
they're looking good though Spain.

Speaker 3 (19:46):
Yeah, I think Piney said when we got them on,
he said, that's your form team, the favorites Espanol and
he had that wild card in Turkey and they very
nearly made it Turkey.

Speaker 1 (19:56):
They were sort of the darlings of the tournament, weren't they.
They call them Turkey, now you call Turkey. They were
playing so well people had to start pronouncing the name
of the country properly. Yeah. Is that a Is that
a shift? Is that because all the comments are calling
him took it? Yeah, It's like it's the equivalent of
when a Polynesian player joins the n r L and
has a breakout season and then halfway through the season

(20:18):
has to be like hey, just so he goes, no,
it's I saw Malawi and everyone oh okay, because I thought,
can we kill you? Funny it was. It was Joseph
Swahili for the first year of his his career and
then everyone's like, oh, so, yeah, it's taken Turkey. I
don't know what, how long has that been a country?
Just one hundred years? We just gotta heather around the

(20:39):
Ottoman empire. Tell us that your turkey. Yeah, well we
can handle the bird turkey and all that. Yeah, fine,
do you think they tongue around? But I'm also like
countries always have a different name than the English name. Yeah,
than the English name. But then Japan Nippon Nippon. Yeah,
but then you call them Nippon? Yeah? Should we? Now?

(21:02):
I don't know that's where the term nips comes from?
What like nipples? Why? What you know? Okay, during the
war anyway, Please don't English. The English face the Dutch
tomorrow morning at seven am and those that will just
decide who's going to go in the final against Spain.

Speaker 3 (21:23):
Yeah, so the rod Cones versus English. This is going
to be a great game because every English fan is terrified.
Yeah their heart, their hearts says, but their heads like going.
But I said to a couple of English mates who
are quite pumped about this. I said, after the disappointment
of the last Euros, where you were red hot all
the way through, Paul play all the way through the knockouts,

(21:46):
went to the final against Italy as hot favorites and
choked and you lost.

Speaker 1 (21:52):
At least this way around, it's been rocky. Yeah, you've
started terribly, You've farted your way through penalties. You might
just pull this off by coming right for the last
two games. Yeah. So and they're like, now, God excited
and I see he's still going to lose. Yeah, I
got I hope, I hope they do.

Speaker 3 (22:09):
Look at the final. I want them to beat Netherlands.
I wanted them to beat the road Cones because I
just love England and final. Yeah, I just love them
in a final of everything because everyone goes crazy, particularly.

Speaker 1 (22:21):
Sports they invented. Yes, I don't believe they invented. You
can't tell me. No one was kicking something around before
that was the probably once first put the rules in.
I'm sure. I'm sure there were Chinese people kicking around.

Speaker 3 (22:32):
Heads well before that. Yeah, kicking around Mongolian warrior's heads. Yeah,
that's right for ships and giggles. But they weren't doing
keepy uppies and putting it into the back of a net.

Speaker 1 (22:42):
Yeah. It's a lot like the English saying that they
invented America pivo. Yeah, as we know it today. Sure,
but people were doing America before you got it anyway. Yeah,
I'm looking forward to them getting knocked out in the
final as well. I think it'll be tremendous. Now I
have released all of my hostages. I was not getting

(23:03):
in any information out of Raiser's camp. New set up,
isn't it set up? They don't. They don't stand for blackmail,
tight lips. They don't stand for black mail. Also, they
can't be blackmailed, and that's because they actually don't know
who the team's going to be until Raiser actually farts
it out, until Razor actually farts it out. So I've
had to consult the crystals now because you know, I'm

(23:23):
not getting any information if you've just started listening to
this podcast. I used to have sources inside the All
Blacks camp that would tell me who the team's going
to be, team's name tomorrow. I can no longer trust
these sources, so I've had to consult the crystals. It
is my birthday yesterday, so I'm in my you know,
my astrological whatever era. My mercury is in retrogade grade. Yeah, okay,

(23:46):
I'm a cancer. You are literally, Yeah, I am a
cancer in the locker room, and I've consulted the crystals.
This crystals all around my scullness and the amethyst. Anyway, Okay,
here's the team. The forward pack stays the same. I
don't think makes a single change. There's no injuries to
worry about. There is there no look, I agree that.

Speaker 3 (24:04):
I don't think anyone played themselves out of the team
and the Ford pack, they were a bit quiet. We
didn't see much of Summer Penny. No, Papallini was a
bit quiet. Even to Apolo too, was pretty quite. But
first game, first game, I thought the scrum was dominant. Yes,
the rucking was dominant. We turned over a number of
balls with our rucking.

Speaker 1 (24:23):
Artie looks great. Yep, So I agree. I agree with
those crystals. No changes. TJ's out. Yes, that means Christie isn't.
I don't think that's too big a revelation. I think
the crystals have done you good. I see three more changes. Okay,
I see Caleb Clark starting at number eleven through no
fault of Mark Taliers. The crystals are just telling me
Caleb Clark gets a run this weekend instead of he

(24:46):
did nothing wrong. I know he did nothing wrong. I
just feel like I feel like ras is going to
look at it and just go he's at home Jabb
of the Butts homeland. He's in Eden Park. Is that
what you're saying.

Speaker 4 (24:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (24:58):
I also feel like it's also Mark Telly's homeground as well.
Yeah it is. I also just feel like the air
Wingers aren't huge, and I feel like if you could
just get a hard running bloke like Caler Clark in there,
I think I think Raiser bins Rico and I think
he brings dough Bro in. Rico doesn't feel like a

(25:20):
Scott Robertson kind of player. I think the same reason
that he left Setutu out of the squad, yeah, is
the reason why this weekend he drops Rico. That's when
Doughbro comes to thirteen and Doughbro comes into thirteen. I
can't argue with that. Yep. That's a solid cent appearing
of Jordian Dobro. And I think Bowden comes in at

(25:42):
full back for the Cheese for the cheese again through
no fault of the cheese at all. I just felt
like Razer wanted to bring him on earlier. I feel
like maybe there was some sort of if it was
rust or niggle or some sort of injury. I don't know.
I just feel like you don't bring Boden Barrett into
your squad unless you think that you're going to start
him right, and you're not going to start them at
first five over d max. He starts at fifteen. That's

(26:02):
what the crystals are saying. It's not bad. It's not bad,
but I do.

Speaker 3 (26:07):
It's only Kayleb Clark coming in for Mark Tellier, which
I'm a little bit. The rest of it, I can't
argue with the crystals.

Speaker 1 (26:13):
We'll find out tomorrow at about eleven thirty, just before
we get to an airbreak. It is a Wednesday. I've
got a half Bake sports idea, a very quick one
to run past you. Yes, let's do it out Half
b Sports. Off the back of Damien McKenzie being done
for shot clock violation, they're now bringing in a shot clock.

(26:33):
I think we moved that into real life shot clock
for slow talkers. If I ask you a question and
the answer can only be A or B, the shot
clock starts yep, you got twenty four seconds to answer,
and then I'm fucking swinging And I think this goes
for and where does it show up? The shot clock
on your forehead or yes, yeah, okay, on my fore head. Yeah,
it just comes up maybe if I've got the Google glasses, Yeah.

Speaker 3 (26:56):
And it's just on my over my lenses or it's
a heads up display like you know, and then you
cars yes, yeah, exactly, and it just flashes up and
it's like, hey, I've asked you, is that this or that?

Speaker 1 (27:05):
And if you start giving me a like a rundown
of why, it couldn't be the third thing, I'm out
violation turnovers. A turn over mean you can just walk
away from the conversation. I think, Yeah, I've been around.
The only problem is I've asked you a question and
I still need to know the answer. I don't. I
don't think it's a bad idea.

Speaker 3 (27:24):
I think it also a shot clock around storytellers and
some people who don't realize that a story needs a start,
a middle, and crucially an end. Yes, obviously, people sometimes
just fart around the middle and then and there's no
real end. So if there's some sort of shot clock
around that as well, Yeah, can I stop you?

Speaker 1 (27:45):
There's this story got a start. Obviously you've started, and
you've got a juicy middle and a proper end.

Speaker 3 (27:51):
And if they say no out, But if they say, yeah, ago,
you got two minutes, sweet carry you?

Speaker 1 (27:58):
Yeah. Have you thought about whether this would be interesting
to the person you're telling it too? Yeah? If the
arts is not bad? Have you thought about who else
is in the room? Yeah? If you considered the fact
that there are other people in the room, they don't
give a shit about how your day's gone. Yeah. I
just think that there's sometimes particularly when you're in a
short mood, you know, had a long day at work.

(28:20):
I remember one day pulling up to a restaurant were
going out for dinner. We had a reservation, and there
was a massive group milling about outside, and I was
just like, are you guys in the queue to get
into the door or are you guys just waiting around
for someone else or something? He goes, well, the funny
thing is, man like this morning when we made the reservation,
I was like, hey, man, there's fucking two answers here

(28:44):
and none of them are this morning when I made
the reservation, are you ready to get in the door
or can I just walk past it? And I said
that to her because I'd had a long day. It
was just flabbergasted. The group I was with laughing their asses.
I just walked straight past it. I was like, sorry, man,
you caught me on a bad day. But fuck I
do I do play that game internally in my head
quite a lot. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (29:03):
It's like someone's talking and I'm like, God, I am
so clocked out of this conversation right now.

Speaker 1 (29:10):
Yeah, long internal monologue. Shot clock. It's an important asset
to have a lot of people that we meet across
the weekend told me that they listen to this podcast
where they going to sleep, So potentially it should be
a shot clock on some of our yards. Anyway, it's
just expired on the segment, so we're going to take
a quick break and we'll come back with yours please, yours.

Speaker 2 (29:32):
Please, brought you by Leader Home of the Top.

Keen on a commentary gig Potential eat up not a
hooker instead of the two old skeletons.

Speaker 1 (30:03):
To do it on Facebook Live could be a bit
of fun. A few ultras fuck South Canterbury. Hey, look,
that's not a bad idea. It's not. We shed beautiful
bird song in the background. It was, wasn't It's quite
a kind of a lot of homoerhontic undertones in there.
I think we could do it.

Speaker 3 (30:21):
I think we could hit our export Ultra and to
get a pre game going to that, go to ash Burton,
go to Ashburton and put an Ultra pregame on. First
of all, maybe not for the players, although they would
make the game a bit more interesting and then had
the game wasn't thirty.

Speaker 1 (30:39):
First of August? Thirty first of August, yep, which is
a couple of months where now go down the flash
ash and then head down to the grounds afterwards. Yeah,
I don't mind it. I don't mind it as an idea, Jake.
I think we met his brother in law, Yes, I
think someone, Yeah, someone said that. The relation to him,

(31:00):
I just know. And he is almost entirely responsible for
the Fox South Canary Social Club. As this guy he
started call again and saying fuck South Canary. Everyone else
is just picked up on it. So are we going
into the Hornets next? Why not? If we do that,
let's go to DMS with the details and prepare to
be let down again. Yeah, get into it, I reckon.

(31:21):
We need to. We need to. We need to get
the expert ultras down the south there. We need to
convert them. We they were waiting for us at Raywood
Fresh outside the airport Ago and we didn't show up.
So he Shputon's a bit closer though. We can fly
in and drive to Ashputon. We can find the crash
and just get them get in the truck. Shpuron's a
bit closer than what the rail ward outside the crosher

the bus and go to fucking we didn't Yeah shivered
