Speaker 1 (00:06):
You're listening to the Weekend Sport podcast with Jason Vine
from News Talks B one five.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
On Sundays, we chat to a man who would always
step up and take a penalty in a shootout. James mcconey,
Good afternoon, Oh.

Speaker 3 (00:21):
Wow, pony that penalty shootout. Good afternoon to you and
your listeners. That was that was stressful and to be honest,
I wasn't feeling great about life because there were some
great penalties top Bins, especially from the Melbourne boys.

Speaker 2 (00:36):
I thought the same thing. I thought, this is going
to end in tears. Jesse Randall had gone off and
I thought, this is he's not going to play for
Auckland again because he's off of course to Scotland to
play yet to watch from the sideline, I thought, you
know they're not going to win the game. But Auckland's
penalties were good too.

Speaker 3 (00:52):
You know we were sending up defender's pony and you
were giving out the stats live on Sky going yeah,
he's never scored a goal scored going, I was going, cheers, Pioney,
great fat.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
Holding holding their nerve though, holding their nerve and Michael
Voud with that safe isn't goalkeeping funny a. You know,
wasn't that long ago that Michael Voud was villified for
that era he made which gave up a goal in
the game. He couldn't get down the tunnel fast enough,
he was dropped back in the side and he was
out there last night an hour after full time, still
signing autographs.

Speaker 3 (01:29):
Well, I know, and you know what, I'm not blaming
Michael vald for anything, because even the goal roding and
at the end of regulation time was a fault of
the defenders. There were we left our shortest guy on
the on the on the back post, and I'm sure
any coach anywhere in the world would say, you just
don't do that, you know, so little Callan Elliott was

(01:50):
battling not only to go out the goal scorer, but
also their goalie who probably would have scored as well,
So there was some atonement needed. And I think Dan Hall,
who was left sort of marking nobody in the middle
of the of the goal mouth, it was quite nice
that he was fitting that he slotted the winning penalty,
although Hierarchi Sarkai, the captain, I think his came off

(02:11):
the underside of the bar. Is that right, poney?

Speaker 2 (02:13):
Yeah, yeah, definitely hit some woodwork. You could hear on
the effects. Absolutely.

Speaker 3 (02:16):
Yeah, Oh my goodness, yeah, good stuff. Well we're through.
We're through. I mean they are through.

Speaker 2 (02:22):
They are through. No we can say we are through.
Auckland FC fans will say that double leggard, see me
coming up. And then so what that meant was I
didn't get back to watch the start of the Warriors game,
but I watched the second half, which I think was
the better half, and the Warriors win again.

Speaker 3 (02:38):
Yeah, they do win again. I've got to say these
Ozzie commentators, whether it's Blocker or was it Dan and
Nain last night, they've quite you can feel sense their
antipathy towards the Warriors. They're sort of negative, aren't they.
They just sort of saying, oh, the Warriors are winning
easier now, it's close games. And then they ended up
winning by twenty two points, thanks very much. And even

(02:59):
they called one of the set of six cumbersome and
straight away at the end of that set of six,
Roger two Vasishek scores. So okay, mate, whatever you're seeing.
I can feel the OSS getting a little bit annoyed
at how well the Worries are doing. But we do
need to talk about, can't Padera Padera He's I noticed
that you and your listeners are loving his workout on

(03:20):
the wing. Oh.

Speaker 2 (03:21):
I absolutely loving his work and a guy who I
guess a lot of people probably weren't that familiar with
when he turned up from the Titan Jes. He's been
playing for a couple of seasons in the NRL, but
turned up relatively unheralded, had to buy his time, wasn't
a first choice. He's had four games now, got six
tries and has got that top end speed that you
need out there.

Speaker 3 (03:40):
Yeah. I do like our team with that extra bit
of zip in there because with Tane toy Picky at fallback,
you know, no shade on nickel clock start. I just
think with him there, having someone that quick setting things up.
He's also the second fastest at the play the ball
after James Fisher Harris from the starting line lineup anyway,
so that speed gets up quick. He plays a ball quick.

(04:03):
He's hard to pin down. That's Tane at the back,
car Perea outside him, just greeking havac out there. You
can see the alarm bells and actually that's what Roger
I think looks so good at center because people know
they have to Mark cart Padella. There's no way you
can just leave them. So Roger, it's freed him up.

(04:25):
He ran for one hundred and ninety nine meters. None
of those would kick returns, so there's no free meters there.
And of course when you go up front of the
workhoorses as Jackson Ford fifty tackles, Oh.

Speaker 2 (04:37):
My goodness, incredible. Just before we move to Ipswich Town,
there's been a question on text what if if a
person with a hyphenated surname, Mary's a person with a
hyphenated surname and they both want to keep their name.
So would you be what Tenny's alesni at carn Perreira.

Speaker 3 (04:53):
Yeah you would, And how many nationalities are you represented there?
Because I know you've got Polish on the Zlesniak and
I think Pakistani, So it would be an incredible United
nametions that marriage. So let's try and make that happen.
By the way, the Hurricanes are going to win as well.
I can't see them losing. And Fineanga Northward was in

(05:16):
a flow state. They should call them Fineanga no flow.
But that implodes the opposite but yeah, you guys are
going to win the camp.

Speaker 2 (05:23):
Okay, stop it, stop it, stop it. Do not try
and put the markers on us, do not. I can
see your game. I can see it from a mile away.
Let's see. Let's see where we are in a couple
of months. Hey, Ipswich Town, who got relegated from the
Premier League last year have bound straight back up again.

Speaker 3 (05:42):
Yeah I know, and it's actually wonderful to see. I
think Ipswich Town are a club that deserve a chance.
They didn't play terrible football, and they were battling all
year with Millwall of all places, and ironically the team
that really helped them. Millwall's last team they lost to
was Norwich, the arch rivals of Ipswich Town. So they

(06:04):
are back in the time flight. They cut in the
Wolf's lunch. Ed Sheeran is the the star fan who
was in the changing rooms afterwards. Piney, you gotta love it.
They were singing with Ed. You know the tract the
boys attract The boys are back.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
How good? Imagine having a guy with a voice like
that is your best fan here. He is.

Speaker 4 (06:28):
Strange, You guys.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
Set up out to.

Speaker 4 (07:10):
Another may give me listen.

Bleep! with Ana Navarro

Bleep! with Ana Navarro

Fear thrives in silence and confusion. Ana Navarro rejects both. Her voice is an antidote to today’s chaos. Her new podcast, Bleep! with Ana Navarro, takes on today’s most pressing issues with the voices most connected to it: decision-makers, political leaders, cultural shapers, and people on the frontlines of the story. The conversations acknowledge the emotions we all feel—despair, sadness, fear— but emerge with knowledge, perspective, and hope. The belief is simple: fearless dialogue can transform fear into courage, and courage into change. When fear dominates the headlines, this show digs deeper. Because information, debate, and conversation don’t just ease fear, they give us power to shape the future.
