Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Darcy Watergrade's sports coasters with us.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
It's a fine idea to beat responsibly, it's a brilliant idea.
You've got to be over eighteen and if you're keen
on having a whirl. What do you think about this
New Zealand paying two dollars fifty to beat South Africa
who are paying a dollar fifty.

Speaker 3 (00:16):
That's a more than a long favorite.

Speaker 1 (00:18):
No, no, that's wrong. I think.

Speaker 3 (00:20):
I mean, really, you take you take your rods.

Speaker 1 (00:24):
But I reckon we're going to win this one, okay,
don't you.

Speaker 2 (00:27):
Well I think that like when they lost to Argentina,
I'll use this phrase embarrassed, Yes, and I would say
that the all Blacks after that last fifteen minutes last
week are more of an embarrassed shane faced about the
way they saw the bed sheets awful.

Speaker 1 (00:42):
So I think we come back and thump them around.

Speaker 3 (00:44):
Well, you'd like to think so.

Speaker 2 (00:46):
So if you're brave, jump amongst it two dollars fifty. Yeah,
and you're over eighteen and I know you'll beat responsibly.
So I get involved in that team coming out about
forty minutes time, and there's a lot of talk around
the changes.

Speaker 1 (00:58):
Do you think that much will change. Will will will
I mean, because the only change that I've heard that
makes much sense to me is that you pull the
likes of body off the starting lineup and put them
in as like the bomb squad.

Speaker 2 (01:08):
And you might end up putting somebody like a Will
Jordan and at fall back, which I know he likes.
And of course Robertson with his connection with the Crusaders
might see that. Yeah, because there's a chance they may
be Caleb Clark might not play, which means Seva Reese
is going to have to go on. Mark Tallaire, you
injury cloud saying with the burlap sack of crank shafts

(01:31):
black out of the second Ethan Blackadder.

Speaker 3 (01:33):
Looks like he might miss off. He's out there.

Speaker 2 (01:35):
There's word that floating around that maybe what I might
get a run. Who knows it's going to change. I
think if those two injuries are correct, Yeah, they're going
to have to make some adjustments. Papallitye's back. Does he
get to come off the bench or not to Sam
Cain maintain his position all under the shadow of rather

(01:56):
large mountain, which I'm sure you're familiar.

Speaker 3 (01:58):
With in Captain.

Speaker 1 (02:00):
Is this a geographical do you name drop, just a
geographical name drop there.

Speaker 3 (02:03):
Yeah, absolutely, I like, what what's it like up there?

Speaker 2 (02:06):
Up there? Up there?

Speaker 1 (02:07):
Have you never been up there?

Speaker 2 (02:08):
No?

Speaker 3 (02:08):
I haven't been to South Africa?

Speaker 1 (02:10):
Oh man, I'll tell you what.

Speaker 3 (02:11):
Apparently I should go.

Speaker 2 (02:12):
Apparently Cape Town's a ripper. But Johannesburg's night, don't go out.

Speaker 1 (02:15):
Joe Burger is so bad, Like absolutely give it a miss.
But Cape Town is the place.

Speaker 2 (02:22):
And Cape Town up the top of that table mountain.
Is that we all those mad ass baboons or monkeys
or temples or whatever.

Speaker 3 (02:29):
And they go bottom. They're at the bottom there at
the bottom.

Speaker 1 (02:32):
Because when you're waiting in line and you've got to
go up in a cable cart, what are they?

Speaker 3 (02:38):
Are they the cacus or are they baboon?

Speaker 2 (02:40):
There are baboons boons one of my favorite cartoon characters.

Speaker 3 (02:44):
I are Baboon along with I am weasel.

Speaker 1 (02:46):
You've got to go up there. This is what you've
got to do, Darcy. You go, you gotta go up
in the cable cart. You've got to close your eyes
because otherwise it's going to freak you out. But also
everybody just goes and does tabletop. But you have to
climb Lion Rock as well, which is like another one
over there. Would you can free climb and that is
a thing to see.

Speaker 3 (03:03):
I'm not afraid of heights. That doesn't bother me.

Speaker 2 (03:05):
I've parachuted, I've done man, none of that bothers me.

Speaker 3 (03:10):
I'm too stupid to be afraid.

Speaker 1 (03:12):
Okay, that explains it.

Speaker 3 (03:13):
I'm just I'm not.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
Looking.

Speaker 1 (03:19):
I hate it. Darcy, thank you. I'm looking forward to
your show.
