The Coast Breakfast Bonus Podcast with Tony Jason Sam.

Speaker 2 (00:05):
Hi, thanks for listening to our Breakfast Bonus podcast today.
It's all about the incredible charity netball match that Tony Street.
You really pulled together.

Speaker 3 (00:11):
Well, you guys pulled it together as well. It was
a team effort and from the moment we came up
with this idea, I thought this would be great. And
you know it's great because I'd want to watch I'd
want to watch a whole lot of ex silver Ferns
because unlike and this is going to be a controversial opinion,
you know, in a rugby when a whole lot of
all Blacks when they retire. I think there is a
new wave currently that stay in really good shape and

(00:32):
they do ultramarathons and things like that. But by and large,
in a bygone era, the all Blacks kind of just
let themselves go for a bit chilled, didn't train. You
look at all the ex silver ferns, they could still
be on the court. You look at a Dean Wilson
and Anna Stanley for example, Oh my god, in their
mid to late forties. Now they could literally go and
put address on for the top team. Now now could

(00:54):
enough and good enough.

Speaker 2 (00:56):
And they still give back to the game as well.
These are the women who are still commentating the game,
still coaching the game. I'm still playing social netball on
Wednesday night with some of the other mums, you know
what I mean. They're still involved in the game. But
you're right, Tony, they have kept themselves fit and because
I guess that was their job for so long, the
nutrition must be incredible because they look amazing.

Speaker 4 (01:12):
It's a real insight actually into the benefits of training
over a long period of time and how that kind
of flows onto your life later in life.

Speaker 3 (01:21):
Not only that, I think it also shows and I
know that I've seen this when we've watched The Black Clash,
which is basically a whole lot of top cricketers playing
top rugby players who played cricket. Is often the skills
are transferable, so when you're good at one thing, you're
often good and very capable at another. And we saw
that with Porshaw Woodman, we saw that with Kirk Penny,

(01:41):
with Lisa Carrington.

Speaker 4 (01:42):
No, I think more than that, I think one of
the greatest examples that we haven't really spoken about is
how we saw that with Martin Guptil. I was going
to say year never played netball in his entire life,
and you saw him kind of like it took him
about three or four positions before he'd worked out the lines,
and he was finding ways to get the ball into.

Speaker 3 (01:58):
Kirk, getting into septs.

Speaker 4 (02:00):
He had conceptualized the game worked out. I was head
so quickly, and it was like great athletes are great
athletes because they are so smart, a working stuff, and.

Speaker 2 (02:09):
It's that mindset they know how to win. And we
talked about this with Martin Guptell before. He's the guy
that still holds the record for the fastest fiftieth in
fifty sorry, yeah, fifty in seventeen. Get that too, So
he knows how to do that. But then you look
at someone like Evonne Willaring So who she was our coach.
She used to coach the Silver Ferns, so you know
it's in her DNA and her blood. But she knew

(02:30):
a lot of the players on the other scene, right
on the other team. But at the start, she she
was nervous because she didn't know what she was dealing with.
She was dealing with us numbties. But then by the
third quarter she was talking the sidelines with her shoulders
back and she came alive.

Speaker 3 (02:42):
It was our Coast Invitational. Actually got within three goals
at one point. To her, this leads me to next year,
and so many of the players have already said sign
me out for next year. I loved it. Martin Guptil.
He said, I'm going to actually train for it this
time because we just had the time of our lives
out on court. I'm going to be getting some cardio
win so that I can actually last the whole game.

Speaker 4 (03:01):
We were talking about that this morning, that like there
were so many things we wanted to do on the court,
but there was just nothing left in the tank.

Speaker 3 (03:07):
Like I wanted the body wouldn't go there.

Speaker 4 (03:08):
I wanted to try and get because I was playing
wing attack at one point and I could see where
there were opportunities for antersept passes. But I was like,
if I go for those, I'm not going to be
able to get back and get to the gold and
feed the ball because there was just nothing left in
the tank, you know what.

Speaker 2 (03:21):
Yeah, And you talk about the other the former Funds
or the Xperience teams, like people like Anna Stanley. She
was running forward, immediately running backwards and running for immediately
running backwards like the change of her not direction as much,
but just the fund and.

Speaker 3 (03:32):
Back change of pace. Yeah, so let's let's do a
little brainstorm. Now, let's just pine the sky. Having seen
how the snipball game went. Who do you think would
be a great recruit for next time?

Speaker 4 (03:44):
Steven Adams, Oh.

Speaker 3 (03:46):
Tom Abercrombie, players like that.

Speaker 2 (03:48):
Richie McCaw.

Speaker 3 (03:49):
I'd love to see Richie now he is.

Speaker 2 (03:51):
Still the ultramarathons and he knows and his eye for detail.

Speaker 3 (03:54):
And they are a netballing family because his daughter Joe
McCaw who and I played ritt nitball all the way
through together in Canterbury. Sorry, his sister so she actually
Jim and mccaur was a hockey plat. I wonder how
she transferred to the netbook.

Speaker 4 (04:06):
There needs to be rules. I don't think there can
be current current stars. Well that we did with a
couple of those, one.

Speaker 3 (04:12):
Of the more current.

Speaker 4 (04:15):
So I think that's cheating, isn't it.

Speaker 2 (04:17):
He's not a new.

Speaker 3 (04:17):
Baller and people still have to get him the ball
to shoot.

Speaker 4 (04:21):
Right, Well, yeah, but you could you can just throw
it up over your head and yeah, you can.

Speaker 2 (04:25):
Go into the Ruby circles as well. Dad, he's again
he knows that a learning Corey Jane, Yeah.

Speaker 3 (04:31):
Cory j is he dag is de Andy Ellis. If
we look at other sporting codes, what about d C
Dan Cattter would be good in the rugby. I'm also
thinking of other sort of not players. What about Scott Robertson.

Speaker 2 (04:46):
As a coach? Yeah, yeah, no, I was.

Speaker 3 (04:50):
Thinking for halftime entertainment, for the breakdowns in the middle
of court.

Speaker 4 (04:53):
What about We've got to do that. Sorry interapt Jase
I reckon. We need to really work on halftime entertainment.
I think we're two things. The first thing comes to mind,
what are those hot dogs at the Warriors games?

Speaker 3 (05:03):
We need some food from Suzanne McFadden. She brought them
the game.

Speaker 4 (05:10):
I couldn't have one of hers. She keeps offering me them.

Speaker 2 (05:13):
I that I will vomit. You don't understand.

Speaker 3 (05:15):
I am really.

Speaker 4 (05:18):
All all the blood that it was in my stomach
is currently trying to keep me alive.

Speaker 3 (05:22):
I'd like, just on the furn side of things, I'd
really like to secure Tima Putter. George She's I'd really
like to get her villamina Davu she'd be good down
the goalkeeper in Irene. I asked Irene, and she was
stuck in the hawk's bay. So I'm sure she'd do it.
What about Laura Lingman?

Speaker 2 (05:40):
Oh, yes, now.

Speaker 3 (05:41):
That would be at night. Actually, who the heck is
going to get center against her? No?

Speaker 4 (05:45):
Thanks, not a center. But what about Valerie Adams.

Speaker 2 (05:50):
Down one in valve on the other to each other?

Speaker 1 (05:55):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (05:56):
How do I think lydia Co would go?

Speaker 4 (05:58):
Oh, it's a good call.

Speaker 3 (05:59):
I mean, which she can hit balls? Can she catch them?
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (06:01):
I can say that Martin Guptel.

Speaker 3 (06:03):
You know, Martin catches balls for Griget.

Speaker 4 (06:09):
Yeah, but in terms of her, in terms of her
ability to connect with the ball.

Speaker 2 (06:12):
One hand eye, and the mental games she's got, because
clearly golf's a mental game.

Speaker 4 (06:18):
I wonder how diverse ive sporting background is a golf
is one of those sports that's kind of all in
or nothing.

Speaker 3 (06:23):
Well, I feel like I interviewed when she was ten
and she was only playing golf.

Speaker 2 (06:26):
There.

Speaker 3 (06:27):
Oh, this is great that the possibilities are endless. If
you can think of anyone two six, nine nine, you
can text.

Speaker 2 (06:32):
Coast and if you want to watch the game and
surely you want to, because it was. We had the
voice of nebor Jenny Woods calling the game with Andrew Allison,
who is just a delightful commentator himself. If you've got
