General manager professional rugby Chris Lendrum says McMillan's been open about his plans to coach overseas - and it's just come early.

Sportstalk host D'Arcy Waldegrave explains further.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
So this Core Logic property report out today says that
most people, this is straight couples, most people, most couples
have a home together. I think it's something like fifty
just over fifty percent. But now that more women than
men own their own home as an owner occupier. And
I'm asked you why, Ryan, I've got three female friends,

(00:20):
all in their fifties, with their own homes, marriage breakups
in the last ten years, and with their share of
the matrimonial property bought something else. Ryan. It's because women
live longer than men. All the old ladies still in
the family home after the old boys have popped off,
says Alex. It's not a bad point, Alex.

Speaker 2 (00:37):
They're opening sentence though. In that next text, maybe women
are better at having babies. No better at having babies.

Speaker 1 (00:45):
Darcy said, with sport Darcy, I have been selected. I
actually haven't got that far down the list they are
firing in. But it's true, though, isn't it.

Speaker 2 (00:54):
I mean, it's terrible at having babies.

Speaker 1 (00:56):
Here's the thing I was talking to we are well,
well time, where's the you know what if you think
about it? And this, I haven't done the numbers, so
I shouldn't really say it. But if you think about
the gender pay gap, right that that men get paid
more than women on average, But then have they taken
into account the fact that women live longer, you know

(01:19):
what I mean? So if they live longer and they're
earning more for longer than over the lifetime, who's worse off?

Speaker 2 (01:24):
So you're pro ritering this now you got to okay,
you need yourself into trouble.

Speaker 1 (01:29):
Maybe hey, sport, that's the one safe space, big blow
for ended up. The Chiefs coach is off.

Speaker 2 (01:38):
God going to Munster. These contractors be cutch all by
a year. Well through negotiating like hey, I want to
go over to to Munster. They were over there with
you all black fifteen so plainly, you know, over a
couple of pints. Oh you know, what's your ickon? You
want to complaint? So he's going at the end of
the season. But Clay McMillan has had I'm going to

(01:58):
talk about this tonight because you've got the CEO of
the Chiefs joining us on the program. Simon grafis about
whether his tenure has been successful or not. He's got
the finals, but he hasn't won a final.

Speaker 1 (02:10):
That's quite crucial. Isn't it?

Speaker 2 (02:12):
Well? Is it? Do you look at his win loss ratio,
which I believe is right at the top of the tree,
so he's been very good. Do you look at the
players that he has brought through over the time he's
been there. Do you look at the consistency of results
or are you hard as they come and go? You
didn't want a supertitle?

Speaker 1 (02:29):
That's a failure if you're the chief executive. That's he's
been to a simon. If you're the chief executive, I
imagine your metrics would be financial. Has he brought the
fans in? You know, are they selling the merchandise or
that kind of stuff? And if you're winning, you presume
that's that comes with that, right.

Speaker 2 (02:45):
But what he's doing is makes perfect sense. In order
to be a great all black coach. This is where
people didn't like Scott Robertson. You need international experience. So
he's going to go over to Monster. He's going to
check out the lie of the land and Northern Hemisphere
rugby and then go on from there. Look, you might
end up coaching Ireland. I mean all Whales they love
our coaches, don't they.

Speaker 1 (03:03):
Which Keewis players getting fourteen million dollars a contract.

Speaker 2 (03:06):
Wait, Dylan Brown right, he's a paramount of eels player
and they've never really done much, I mean a lot
like magic for a bit, then there fall apart. But
apparently he's been offered fourteen point four million dollars over
ten years. Newcastle is one of the teams that are
been named here by the Telegraph, so they're looking at
a what they call a monster bidding war. He's signed

(03:28):
a contract just recently, but he's allowed in his contract
to explore other options. Four and a half million dollars.
It's another option, isn't it?

Speaker 1 (03:37):
Certainly said, look forward to hearing more about the chiefs tonight.
