you you know me? Jason Pines with this morning mate,
Good morning Mike. How long they've been? The ninja crowd
in the soccer what? What's what's going on in the
sponsorship there? The ninja crow? What's that about?
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Is that You've come out of left field today, haven't you?
Speaker 3 (01:29):
What I do? Mate? That's the Hosking magic, the just
just quickly on the fight that is. I mean you
can't write this, can you, Jason? I mean not only
in the final and the second season so good, but
you're hosting the final so that's all good. Will we win?
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (01:45):
I think we will we I mean well, I think
Auckland FC will win. Yes, I think they will win.
Having home advantage is massive, big crowd and coming Sydney FC.
You know, a good team, but but not you know,
certainly not insurmountable.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
I think it'll be would you agree, Jason? That performance
on Friday night was arguably the best in their history
away from it home. Yeah, yeah, that'll be meaning to win.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
How do you explain that? How do you explain it?
One all in the first league you think it could
be close, sort of interesting, then suddenly three Nils, same side,
different So what what what goes on there? How do
you explain that?
Speaker 1 (02:22):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Well that's sport for you, isn't it? You know, how
can you explain a lot of what goes on?
Speaker 3 (02:27):
That's sport for you? Sport for you?
Speaker 1 (02:32):
Just we should just go there and play adds for
the rest of the second.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
I'm looking some insight and well, that's sport for you.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
Yeah, that is sport for you know.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
I just think they were they were just brilliant at
taking the crowd out of it on on Friday night.
They you know, they clearly had this this plan that
they were going to, you know, just get on the
front foot. The best part of it. At two nil up,
they didn't sit back. A lot of teams sit back
at to nil soak up the pressure and say, okay.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
Come out, us will defend this lead. They kept on attacking.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Best place to defend There's another one for you guys,
best place to defenders in the opposition.
Speaker 3 (03:07):
Hard but slow one. Jason dead right, how do we
score more?
Speaker 1 (03:11):
If you score more goals than the other team, you
generally win a couple of things. Mate. I think the coach,
Steve Corriker, I think he worked a master stroke during
the week and that he built this game up as
and everyone's against WAWK and NEFC, nobody's picking them, which
I don't think was entirely true. But he built this
(03:33):
atmosphere around the team, I think, which made them go
into the game thinking everyone was against him. They played physical, They,
as Jason said, took the crowd out of it. Thought
they thought that was a master stroke. And secondly, both
those semi finals were very entertaining games. That second one
on Saturday night, the end of it and then the
penalty shootout at Great Sporting Theater?
Speaker 3 (03:54):
Am I correct in saying Jason at two and five
will become one? Is it the second team and the
fifth team or the team in the fifth team? Sorry, Michael,
was it was it three and five? I'm sorry I
should direct it. I think it was five or two
and five. I can't remember. The team became fifth, and
the team became second, and the team that came third.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Yeah, third and fift yeah, three and first time that wind.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
Yeah yeah, first time in history the one of the
top two hasn't been in the grand finals.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
So yeah, that's the And there's.
Speaker 3 (04:22):
Then in the semi finals they played two leagues and
then the final they play one leg. I mean it's
like random.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
Rules that sport for you.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
There'll be sports for you. Jason congratulates. So the primary se.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Do you think Jack, just just do you think Jason?
The A League either looked at Eaten Parks seriously or not. No, no, no,
I really don't think they didn't know. I think they
were always it's always going to be Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
Final question, Jason, Sorry to put you on the spot.
I just thought you were knowledgeable. So final question on
the football, Do if A get the dollars or does
soccer whatever take the.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
Lot al takes the money. Yeah, they run the finals
sooner games.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
They take all the ticket. Yeah, they take the ticket. Well,
I just assume they'd get a fee mic for playing
in the.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
You assume wrong, Andrew.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
They get the corporates and and everything else around the
game that. Yeah, they don't have to.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
Take about what happened. How does that work?
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Get real?
Speaker 3 (05:17):
Other sports?
Speaker 1 (05:17):
You can't. Yeah, I just it's bizarre. I think they're
going well. AFC will obviously push to change the rules
in the future, so odd way.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
To run it, I reckon. Did you see the surfing,
either of you?
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Yeah, I thought it was fantastic. I totally agree with you. Look,
it's a different wave, it's a different break, beautiful pictures
coming out, and yes, it is hugely popular around the world.
It's easy to access and the world's best surfers. Whether
it was fantastic or it is fantastic.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
I'm my only concerned yesterday was and I was reminded,
having watched a bit of surfing previously, you are so
reliant on mother nature and you set the clock and
a lot of nothing can happen while you're waiting for
the wave that you want to get. You know, there's
a lot of filling and chatting and yeah man, and
they all look the same. You notice that every one
of them looks the same. They dress the same. They're
(06:09):
all in hoodies, they're all in these boots, they're all
in these fled jeans. They all got yetti bottles. You
notice that you know the yettie, you know the the
drink bottles. They all got the yetties.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
You would have been you would have had a lick
at surfing given you, given your builtload of the ground,
you would have been quite good at it.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
I was very very good at them.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
Good balance.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
Yep. Me and Kerry Opah hung for a while.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
Who Daniel, Kerryopa sat Oh, yes.
Speaker 3 (06:39):
I'm catching you guys out left right and see it.
You needn't go have a drink and have a break,
and we'll come back and try and be experts. In
a moment, the Monday Morning Commentary barks with Spears Finance
Smart Asset and Equipment finance for Kiwi businesses. Are you
prepared Jason to say this is our year?
Speaker 1 (06:55):
I am? I am prepared now I'm in Brisbane. Was
here for Magic Round? It is?
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Yesterday was guys, unbelievable. It looks good on television, but
the march down Caxton Street from the Warriors fans being
in and amongst all that yesterday, this fan base, I'm
an absolute convert now you.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Know they are.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
They are the best fan base I have ever seen
tour and and the team out there, apart from the
Tanner Boyd thing which was just so tragic.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
Look the way too.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
Mighty Martin came in and now Luke Metcalf with the iron.
Well you're playing, Mike, don't you?
Speaker 3 (07:32):
Well, of course you're playing. But I'm saying, if I'm Luke,
you said the came bug a. Can I ring the
dragons and get out of this because you're in the
call period.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
Although Mike, he's well paid at the Warriors, wasn't it
around a mill? And he's getting even more for the Dragon,
So I don't think he's too upset. Do you think
there'd be a little bit of a hangover from some
of his teammates about the way he's handled things very much.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
So yeah, no, very much. So I don't know that
he's handled I get what he's trying to do.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
You think Webster will still definitely start? You have to.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
You have to is a he's a genius player, he's
on your books. You treat him well. I thought I
thought Webster handled him last week beautifully and he said,
you know, very well.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
He's pragmatic bloke. He's very calm under pressure Webster. And yeah,
I'd imagine he'll do the right thing whatever it is. Mite.
Speaker 3 (08:16):
But how good are they? I mean honestly, and even you,
because for years have given me a hard time about this.
Even You've got to come on the train now, don't we.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
But for do you think of the worries ten fifteen
years ago bud lost their superstar halfback in the first fight,
trumbled right and Yester Broncos had a lot of players
missing through injury. But it there's still the Brisbane Broncos
at home in Brisbane, one of the great rugby league
clubs of all time. Right, I killed them and so
to put to put forty odd points on them and
(08:46):
have young guys continually that have come through the Warriors
system stand up and perform. I thought it was outstanding.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
What do you do, Jason? You would have pondered this
as you sat there with a four X yesterday. Well,
Ivan Cleary, so you're at the top of your game
and you think, nah, that's about me done. I mean,
how do you come to that decision?
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Well, I guess yeah, I don't know. Maybe you do.
Speaker 2 (09:08):
Just get to a point where you've achieved all that
you can and you stay yourself.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
Well, I'll pass it on to the next game.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
Why wouldn't you go again?
Speaker 2 (09:16):
I don't know, but certainly, like I know, if I'd
reached the top, I'd try to stay there as long
as I can.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
But you are at the top, Chase, we all know that.
Don't be modest with.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
Us, but it's that job would consume you, wouldn't it.
Twenty four to seven?
Speaker 3 (09:30):
If so on, I mean you either want to be
a winner or you don't save. I mean, we don't
all work for one news the way you do. I mean,
some of us want to work out and strive, and
you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
Sure, surely you have ten mint or fifteen minutes during
the weekend where you have downtime make and you're not
studying or reading or not lining your suits or ironing
your undies or whatever you do.
Speaker 3 (09:49):
If people do that, for mate, people do that.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
But what will he do?
Speaker 3 (09:55):
What will exactly do now?
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Because he needs he in his family, including Nathan, should
come over here and live here again.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
Well, they were already here and we let them go.
That was the problem in there. I mean, you remember
when Cleary was last year. I actually knew how to
kick a goal between the posts, and then we let
him go. You remember all of that. And Cleary Junior
mixed in with Mary Mary wants Mary's over in England
playing for Manchester and and and Cleary Junior goes, I
know I might go play for the Britain. And now
(10:25):
he's not playing for the best side in the world.
He's playing there because his partner's there through a new age,
isn't it.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
I think, I honestly think it's our Yeah, and just
on just on magic round as well. That yesterday, that
game was obviously at some court that the heart of
the Brisbane Broncos.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
It felt like a warrior's home. Game.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
It didn't.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Honestly, guys.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
It was when the when the Broncos team was being announced,
the audible booze. It was what the guy exber I
thought you guys were at.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
Home the quick question. Actually, Jason, I'm sorry to interrupt
there because I am told my sister in law's there.
She travels to Brisbane quite a lot. She assures us
that Brisbane has become increasingly sophisticated over the last few years.
Is she right or off her head?
Speaker 2 (11:09):
Well, I mean it didn't look as sophisticated as perhaps
she would have thought over the weekend, like maybe magic
rounds a bit of an outline when it.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
Comes to that. I don't know. But did I hear
some where they sold half a million dollars worth of
merchandise at the pop up store in the Queen Street mall.
It was on Friday.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
On Friday when I went down there, the que would
have been two hundred long to get into the store.
It was, honestly, everything this club does at the moment.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
You can't argue with that. Between the Auckland, between the
Auckland FC and the Warriors, you've got a couple of
fantastic sides and dare I suggest just quickly sav so
the hurricane thrash the Blues, that's boring. The Highlanders are
out of the playoffs. The Crusaders had to buy so
in comparison, not quite the Sames A no.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
And I think the concern for Rennie Dave Rennie after
the week and Mike, I know you spoke to him
last week, is that some of his all some of
his all black candidates aren't playing that well. There we go.
That was from the weekend.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
He's a nice guy, isn't he, though, Reny, Yeah, yep.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
But like but like Webster, I think very calm, very calm, Mike,
very calm under pressure. Yeah yeah, very very well thought
of and very experienced.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Good stuff.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
I'm still looking, by the way, Mike, that's what we
call sport, that's what we.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
Thought for you.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
I'm still looking at the video. Helen sent me Sam
just to let you know. Have I passed it on
to you, Jason of you dancing at the back of
James Rain Have you seen Have you watched it?
Speaker 1 (12:35):
But I need to see it.
Speaker 3 (12:36):
I tell you what, it's a look. I'll flick it
off to you, Jason. No worries. I'll get it through
to you before you hit the Cory Lane. Nice nice
to see you, Chase, Jason Pine, and Andrew Sevil.
