Speaker 1 (00:00):
Guy have Ld andrews Avill both with US fellows. Good morning,
right here we go. For you, guy, the highlight of
the weekend sporting wise, for you was what.

Speaker 2 (00:11):
It's tied at the top the black Cats winning a
Test series in India for the first ever at time,
which was just incredible and I think ranks probably up
there with them beating Australia in a series for the
first time in what eighty five eighty six And James
McDonald winning the Cox Plate on board VA Sestina. That

(00:32):
was a very special moment. And winning is one hundredth
group one, which I know you will probably not really
care about, but it's a significant achievement for diet thirty
two years.

Speaker 1 (00:41):
Well, I know James a very very very likable guy.

Speaker 2 (00:45):
Yep. I was going to say, I don't know if
you've ever had him on your show, but he'd be
a great person for you to get for fifteen to
twenty minutes. He's a fantastic talker and he's had a
very interesting life and he is just a phenomenal jockey.

Speaker 1 (00:55):
He's a very nice guy. What about you, Andrew? What
was was? What was fizzing?

Speaker 3 (01:00):
I had to say the black Cats might first and foremost,
given that they've ripped through India four times in India
with their bowling maybe once or twice on a tour
that happens in India, and the fact that that first
Test win wasn't a fluke, and also the fact that
Mitchell Satna, pretty much a part time spinner takes what

(01:23):
was it twelve thirteen wickets for the match, quite extraordinary.
Silver Ferns have done very well against Australia that's come
out of the blue.

Speaker 1 (01:31):
Do you have any insight into what's happened? Last time
I checked in with these silver Ferns, they were a
bit useless.

Speaker 3 (01:35):
They lost to England in that series at home recently,
and then all all indications were that they were going
to get dumped by the Aussies. All of a sudden
they have this camp, deep and meaningful camp. I think
it was in Hawk's Bay for four or five days.
Some home threws were delivered and then next thing they
go in and beult the Aussies in three games to
win by some of those margins in Australia.

Speaker 1 (01:58):
Does it say anything about Australia. All Australia but weak
on it. It's just Nolan.

Speaker 3 (02:02):
I thought Australia was strong. I think all the indications
were that Australia still at the top of the nipball
tree and that they are very very strong. The Silver
fans weren't going to get close. It was just Nolan
side at a third highlight surely was Liam Lawson flipping
the bird.

Speaker 1 (02:17):
That was that. That was as far as a race.
If you watch the whole race, I mean you cannot
not love if one. It was phenomenal from one end
of the field to the other. It was high drama
and there were so many stories and it was just
absolutely brilliant and.

Speaker 3 (02:35):
It's amazing how through when when when a season is
one side and when estapends leading by heaps, nothing really
happens in races or there's very very very little fan
fear or controversy. Now every second lapter seems to be
time penalties. It seems to be guys being pushed off
the track. This incident after incidents fantastic and.

Speaker 1 (02:56):
You see how panicked Red Bull are with what's going on.
They're our third in the constructors and that's why I
think that you're probably going to see Peries jettisoned out
sooner rather than later, because they'll be asking themselves who
can get us points canned lawson? Yes or no? Is
it a risk?

Speaker 2 (03:12):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (03:13):
Is it any worse than what we've got? No? No?

Speaker 2 (03:16):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (03:16):
Today, Lie, I would imagine there were images of him,
There were images of him being spoken to you by
Christian Horner, or going into a meeting, which normally happens
up to race weekend anyway. But I would imagine outwardly yes, Lie,
and you may not want to do that again. But however,
I'd imagine inwardly in that camp saying, Liam, you're a racer.
Couldn't agreement you're giving You're giving it to the old
guys as it is fantastic, Keep doing what you can.

Speaker 1 (03:38):
He's stuck it right up Alonzo and Perez in two
weekends in a row. That shows real gonads for a
young guy.

Speaker 3 (03:45):
Trying to how do you drive at three hundred k and.

Speaker 1 (03:47):
Our take your hand off the wheel, take your.

Speaker 3 (03:49):
Right hand in general, and flip the bird out the lead.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
I've driven quite a lot at two fifty sixty, and
that to me is like gob smacking ly fast, and
I am not doing anything other than holding on for
digger life. So how he does that. I got no idea.

Speaker 3 (04:08):
And having grown up on having for Liam grown up
on the streets, that's nothing. The birds nothing.

Speaker 1 (04:14):
Right exactly, that's just Hi. How you doing?

Speaker 2 (04:18):
Did they leave him out? So they leave Liam Lawson
out to help to step and get back through or
was it possibly because that seemed like a terribly bad
technical era he was out for so long when it
was obviously you needed to go on the pits because
his car.

Speaker 1 (04:32):
Was well, it was out the same They ran the
same sort of strategy the week before, you remember, on
the hard tires, and so they're trying to work out
when you put the mediums on and how long the
mediums last and all that sort of stuff and whether
you're going to be in the points and stuff like that,
and so he was not going to be in the points.
You got to remember, even at his best point he
was before all the pit stops, he was about twelfth,
so as chances of him getting to the top ten

(04:53):
were relatively slim so and then of course color Pinto
came along and it all sort of fell apart. You
guys have an arm me what my highlight of the
weekend sport was?

Speaker 3 (05:02):
Oh, Mike, what was your highlight.

Speaker 1 (05:04):
I have to take one. No it's not guy, Are
you exercised?

Speaker 3 (05:09):
Can I take a punt?

Speaker 1 (05:11):
Can you can?

Speaker 3 (05:13):
And I'll take the punt and this guy, I would say,
please bit responsibly. Well, it was either that Hong Kong
Invitational billions or Gold Coast Supercars.

Speaker 1 (05:26):
No, it wasn't either. The the snooker was excellent. The
NPC final, well, now this is this is part of it.
So I reckon this weekend was better than the previous weekend.
If you think about it. If one on the Saturday morning,
P one and P two, the supercars, the abs, not
that they were that exciting. The final of the NPC

(05:47):
was brilliant given the extra time and how exciting that was.
But this was a piece of history. I watched it live,
and it's when you watch it live that it's truly
special as opposed to just going and watching it on YouTube.
It was a walk off Grand Slam.

Speaker 3 (06:01):
Oh yes, yes, yes, Dodgers Yankees.

Speaker 1 (06:03):
Game one of the World Series. So bottom of the tenth,
so extra innings, two out, Yankees are up three to two.
Last batter up. They walk mooky bets because they don't
want to face them, because they're scared of them, so
they walk them so bases loaded, they get the guy
Freeman up, ball in, puts it in the crowd. Never

(06:24):
in the history of World Series Baseball has there been
a walk off Grand Slam. Ever, yeah, moving and it
was only ten in all of baseball. Think about that,
in all of baseball, there's only been ten and none
in the World Series. So I was there on the
sofa thinking, geez, I wonder what pressure is on this guy.
He's in the crowd, he's it's the most in.

Speaker 3 (06:47):
Any home it again in the game two? Was it
on Sunday?

Speaker 2 (06:50):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (06:51):
It was any home it again? So there now too.
Do you want a fund stat The people who lead
the World Series to nil Game three today in New York,
the people who lead the World Series two nil go
on to win at eighty four percent of the time.

Speaker 3 (07:03):
Is this your new golf or new genis where you
become fixated with something and watch it.

Speaker 2 (07:08):
No.

Speaker 1 (07:08):
I just happened to see it. I like the Dodgers,
and I saw him do it, and I thought, I
wonder if this is historic? What has just happened in
front of me? And sure enough it was.

Speaker 2 (07:16):
You'll see him out, You'll see him out in the
dadding cage in a couple of days there drew no help,
just bashing a few balls into the stands. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (07:23):
Yeah, and then and then in six months time he'll
give it up and he'll tell us he could have
made it to the max if he was younger, if
he's taller.

Speaker 1 (07:33):
Tell you what, I was first base at Linwood High
in the first That was easy and I made the
first one.

Speaker 3 (07:43):
Didn't they stick the real useless kids on first?

Speaker 1 (07:50):
No they did not. Now, Guy Warner's captaincy being lifted,
is that a thing or not?

Speaker 2 (07:55):
Really? Well, he's never going to play for Australia again
into cricket, so I don't think it doesn't really really
mean much.

Speaker 1 (08:04):
Second question, Jim, the one hundred Do you know about
the one hundred?

Speaker 2 (08:09):
What the one hundred are we talking about?

Speaker 1 (08:11):
Cricket England private in England? Yeah? Is that going to
turn the game on its head given the amount of money.
I'm just reading about it over the weekend and like
all the leagues around the world, they think this potentially
has got like no one will ever play for their
country ever again.

Speaker 3 (08:24):
It's been going away while though.

Speaker 1 (08:26):
Yeah, no, no, no, it's getting the turbo charged with the money.

Speaker 2 (08:31):
I don't think so. I think I think the IPL
will always be the one that will make the money,
and we'll get the players there. If there's enough money
to pay these players, you know, money that the IPL
is paying them, then of course it's going to drag
some bigger stars there than it already has. But I
think the IPL will still be number one. The big
thing is how much is all of this in a

(08:52):
heightened hundred How much is that going to impact the
international game? Because it already has, but how much if
they continue to just keep throwing more, more and more
and more dollars at it, how much is it going
to impact the international game? That's the question.

Speaker 1 (09:05):
Andrew Auckland death cea top of the table. Think about
lost yeh?

Speaker 3 (09:12):
I mean, not only was that first game fantastic atmosphere
and a good result given the team had barely played together,
but then at the weekend they beat someone like Sydney
EFC SOL. Look, they put on a good show. They're
very fan focused and obviously if they keep winning that
will only boost attendances and boost interest. I think they've

(09:34):
had a fantastic start.

Speaker 2 (09:35):
Zland Derby this weekend they play the Phoenix.

Speaker 3 (09:38):
Yeah, that'll be huge.

Speaker 1 (09:40):
Although win, won't they Wow?

Speaker 2 (09:43):
I don't know, but I'm more interested in to see
that the atmosphere and that sort of thing.

Speaker 1 (09:46):
I think they'll be where it is it Auckland or Wellington?

Speaker 2 (09:49):
I think it's Wellington.

Speaker 1 (09:50):
Yeah, we'll see. That's a shame they don't turn up
in Wellington. That's the problem, isn't it.

Speaker 3 (09:53):
But I think they might for this, even up for this,
I'd say, yep.

Speaker 1 (09:57):
If you're not going to turn up for a local derby,
there's no point in having a local derby, is there.

Speaker 3 (10:00):
I've really been going to games and I've got this
fantastic section of die hard fans already. Two games have
to be like, it's been quite a remarkable start.

Speaker 1 (10:10):
Real real quick question for you guy, calm games? Can
we be bothered on not ten sports? Give it up
or keep it going?

Speaker 2 (10:18):
I'd say give it up?

Speaker 3 (10:19):
Okay, this Andrew doesn't work the irony veer mic is
the sports that needed the most have been kicked out.
I don't know that I would question this.

Speaker 1 (10:29):
Yeah, I think so too. So will officially kill it?
Shall I just pass it on to the Olympic committee then?

Speaker 2 (10:34):
Yeah? Nice?

Speaker 1 (10:35):
To see you guys, I have helped Andrew Sevil for
another week. For more from the Mic Asking Breakfast, listen
live to news talks.

Speaker 3 (10:42):
