Speaker 1 (00:00):
What a miracle dragged Andrew Ordison away from cricket on
the television you have indeed England and India and India
scored two hundred and forty eight and a T twenty
game six. Yeah with the well what did you get?
One hundred and thirty five.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Extrawdinary batting display in Mumbai under lights?
Speaker 1 (00:18):
Did you watch Aukland? See?
Speaker 2 (00:20):
No?
Speaker 1 (00:20):
I did well? I did? I did and I tee
impressive showing well. I'll tell you why. They are magnificent
in defense. They're very physical. The refs are allowing physical play.
They're a great watch all the time, you know, and
when you do a big tackle, people go whoy. And
if you've got a hey every every two minutes, you're
a happy punter. You know.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
Yeah, They're pretty compelling. And what a start to this
this tenure of these or the season campaign life. That's
what that's what happens when you get a pro in charge.
Speaking about a pro, Chris Wood gets a hat trick,
I know, just another remarkable display from Chris Wood. The
seven ZL victory and yeah, seventeen goals. The he's just yeah,
(01:01):
a frontier, just pioneering from New Zealand football what Chris
Wood's been able to put together the seventeen goals for
the season and sitting behind for Mohammed Salah Sala and
Early Harland and just continues to go from strength to three.
I mean, I guess from a team perspective too, Nottingham Forest.
I mean we talk about Wood as an individual. They
(01:22):
haven't played in Europe since nineteen ninety six and they've
got a buffer there. They're well on the way.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
I remember Brian Kuff, Yeah, Brian Cooff was the manager.
Can I just say how things have changed? We just
talked about football right at the start, and that's how
big football has suddenly become in New Zealand. It's been
growing for a long time. But I think that's great
however it.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Is, and I think it's a growing trend.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
I think it's going to continue. My boy was at
the game and I phoned him up because I wanted
him to come around. We're going to do dinner. We
did dinner last night and I said I wanted to
talk to him about what he wanted for dinner, and
he said he actually takes me back saying I can't
phone you it's too loud. And that's a good thing.
Do we care well, lydia Co? How's lydia going now?
Speaker 2 (02:03):
Lydia Co struggling at the start. She's dropped two shots
today so far through three holes, so she's not under overall,
five strokes off the lead at the sort of the chief.
Just trying to defend your title in Florida. Not looking
good so far. But Lydia Coe, we all know can
come back into it.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
And you're relentlessly optimistic, aren't you. She is allowed to
lose every now and then.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
And if you're getting getting rid of the normal career,
if you're getting ready.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
For the super Bowl which is in a week's time,
and for the big kiss between Travis and that thing
of woman. Did you see the photograph?
Speaker 2 (02:38):
No?
Speaker 1 (02:39):
No, Tayler Swift and Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey kiss
after the semi final win, but it broke the internet.
The biggest quarterback and the biggest America's sweetheart. This is
a lot about our society, doesn't it. But NFL is
coming to Australia.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Yeah, that's remarkable news, isn't it. So Melbourne looks like
they've got three games least, they're a little locked in
starting for from twenty twenty six, and they have the
sole right to it apparently, So it's not going to
go to Sydney or Perth at the mc yeah MCG
watch some NFL.
