The Football Ferns have been hit by a spying scandal ahead of the Paris Olympics.
Ahead of Friday morning's match against Canada, a member of support staff for the Canadian team was caught flying a drone over a New Zealand training session.
The NZOC has lodged a complaint - with Canada allegedly issuing an apology and starting an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the incident.
Sportstalk host D'Arcy Waldegrave explains further.

Speaker 3 (00:07):
I've got to say head that deplicit. It's something really interesting.
Speaker 1 (00:11):
It's a little bit two piece onesie today, the two
piece onesie. Yes, it's a jayhoe from back in the day.
It is a jahoe from back to I think it's
several seasons ago, but at age as well.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Well, that's good, that's good. You didn't like send it
off to some fancy second hand shops. I can be
lifted by.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
No.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
I'm wearing it because it's like a silky material. I'm
wearing it till I get a hole in the crotch,
which it inevitably happens, doesn't it with silky materials.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
Well, I don't know, and I known any silk.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
Well that's the downside. Hey listen, So why are the
Canadian spying on our football team?
Speaker 3 (00:39):
We su eighth from the world.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
Well there, and they're the rating champs, the defending champions.
I fight maybe with the new coaching staff, they're thinking
maybe we might better pick something up. But you fly
a drone over a park like you think you're not
gonna get caught. Did they do it liberally?
Speaker 3 (01:00):
No, there's a drone up there.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
I wonder who could come from that person in the
Canadian track suit. Beggars belief the stupidity of a decision like.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
That all the time, though does and they get away
with it all the time, which is why they do it.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
They don't make noises they see it.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
I don't know what they hope. Maybe Formation possibly made
the punishment. Well, we're trying to work that out because
it's overnight over.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
There to get a punishment otherwise, and we'll talk.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
About that tonight on the show. Because you've got one
crazy cheat in the form of Ben Johnson, who really cheated.
I mean he went to down, didn't he. It was
not an average sheet Ben Johnson. He was the steroid
pig at the Sole Olympics. But he ran so fast
as his legs just a been off the track and
left Partha's torso on the ground. The rest of the players,
the rest of the runners slipped and the steroids left
(01:49):
all over the floor.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
So that that big cheap.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
But this is still contravening the Olympic standard, and so
it's still so cheat.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
It's a Canadian spy on a sucky team like us.
Can you imagine the level of spying they're going to
do on a good team?
Speaker 2 (02:05):
I don't know, No, they are the Canadians is bad people,
the bad guys, the villains.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
This stuff. Except Ben Johnson.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
There was a hey, listen, so have we got what
have we got?
Speaker 3 (02:15):
Tomorrows?
Speaker 2 (02:16):
At the sevens we've got the Ollie Whites playing Guinea.
That's the under twenty threes, that's the men's football team,
So they've got Guinea possibly the easiest of their group.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
That's three in the morning.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Rugby sevens get underway with the men the up against
Japan and it's at four am, seven point thirty the
South Africans the blitzb They take.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
On the what are they called blitz Boker fast? Yeah, cool,
carry out. That's what we look at.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
This is all pre Olympics because the opening ceremonyiesn't started yet.
But they've got so much to get through with the
football and the sevens, and they've got to prepare the
stadium for the fun and games or the abject wasteful
stupidity of the being ceremony.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
Hold back on that one, did I no go on?
Speaker 1 (03:03):
You want to know? Yeah, what's the mate? I remember
when I was a kid staying up all night to
watch the nineteen ninety six Atlanta, Georgia opening ceremony. It
was cool, man. It's maybe it's not aimed at you.
Maybe it's aimed at kids.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
There's a lot of money to blow on children. It's
not aimed at me.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
I mean that's a lot of money when they could
be spending that money on first class flights and caviat
and salmon and champagne.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Listen, why are we doing the esports event next year?
Not not in the actual Olympics.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Well, it depends on whether you think it's sport or not.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Look gaming.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
The old fairy is that if you don't have to
change your shoes, it's not a sport. But then it
means darts isn't a sport, and neither's pool or snooker
because you.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
Don't change sports. Well, it's anything sitting.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
And I suppose when you look at hand, eye coordination,
finger controls.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
Gaming, it's gaming. It's esports gaming.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
It's like Olympics for losers.
Speaker 3 (03:56):
