Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Country Sport Breakfast with Brian Kelly on Gold Sport, A.

Speaker 2 (00:17):
Time to cross the ditch and hit to Australia. Our
Australian correspondent Jimmy Dolan, Get Agent morning, Brian, all right,
we'll start with the well the Warriors. But a Warrior
is going to become a Blue for the next state
of origin.

Speaker 1 (00:31):
Yeah, he was a reserving game one, he was eighteenth
man in game two. Now Mitch Barnett, obviously the coach
saw his eighty one minute lion hearted effort for the
Warriors on Saturday. He's got a debut for New South Wales,
so he will be very excited by that. He's former
Newcastle teammate bradmand Bess who also had a pretty big
game yesterday that was enough to show selectors that he

(00:54):
should be in for the injured Latroal Mitchell. So they
will play against Queensland inten days time you spoke about yesterday,
I think the most perplexing thing out of the Warriors
game was when the match review panel decided yesterday that
Jame and Salmon face his suspension. He's already got six
weeks on the sideline after surgery for his broken jaw

(01:17):
and so the Warriors, i'd imagine, will straight beyond the
phone to Graham Annesley, the referees boss, this morning, saying well,
how does he get suspended for a couple of weeks
when he wasn't even penalized for that very comesy head
clash with Tomorrow Martin. And it was such a blatant
penalty that it was late, it was high, and like
I said, it was the head clash. He might have

(01:38):
come off second best, but he still was the instigator
and the penalty girl there could have given the Warriors
the game, don't worry about extra time. So a very
strange decision. And yeah, the Warrior I but if you're
a Warriors fan you're used to that. Well you don't
get used to it, but you see it happened.

Speaker 2 (01:58):
Oh we we got it here on Saturday Golden Point
and we lose it. And then of course we took
on the Poems and the Rugby and there was only
one point in that one as well, but we won
that one.

Speaker 1 (02:09):
Yeah. Yeah, the Queensland Oris inside when we name Today's
a number of changes there. Dame Gagy returned, Santa Cale
and Ponger tipped to be on the bench and Reed
Marney is a standby for Harry Grant who has a
sternam injury, so he can get in there and pester
the b loser. He gets his chance.

Speaker 2 (02:26):
All right, we're talking about rugby. Good signs under Joe Shmidt.
What did you think of your Wallaby's performance over Wales?

Speaker 1 (02:34):
Start carving into the Rugby World Cup right now, the
William Wells Trophy. So Noel Alessio. He might finally be
the playmaker Australian aiders. He was instrumental connecting the troops
in the Wallabies twenty five or sixteen went over Whales. Now,
I know Whales haven't been well beaters, but they certainly
had a crack. And there are plenty tipping that Joe

(02:56):
Schmid would softly, softly start with a pretty dour approach
to the game. But they played attacking rugby. Every time
they get I'm not such a big fan, and then
no look passes because it seems that I wasn't the
only one who couldn't see that was coming and it
was just lucky a couple of times the attackers were
able to hold onto the ball. Tanyel or Tupo up front,
He's such an integral part of the Australian scrum in

(03:17):
Australia's well, he's basically the backbone of going forward. So yes,
I think it was a great start and if they
keep improving a little bit every game we might even
get close to the All Blacks in the bloody floor.

Speaker 2 (03:31):
One swallow does not make a summer. Let's talk about
the motor racing, especially yesterday out of Townsville, twenty one
year old Met Pain leading the way.

Speaker 1 (03:42):
Yeah, he started tenth on the grid and I love
when he was interviewed after the race that he seemed
a little bit stunned how it all unfolded it, you know,
go from tenth to just weave your way through the field.
I was obviously full of praise for his team because
he said he knew on Saturday that he had a
good car and he just didn't want to mess it
up and he certainly took advantage of that. On Sunday

(04:02):
I thought cam Waters was going to hold on in
the end, but Matt Payne just got to the front
and refused to give up that position and would have
been a great day in Channs were too nice and warm,
and that determined battle he held on. It was pretty
impressive will Brown's championship lead. It was almost half to
seventy eight points. That's got a few people excited too.
He had a first lap collision with Dave Reynolds and

(04:25):
then could only manage last, but at least he managed
to finish the race. Interesting from Dave Reynolds too. He
says he can't be mad at Brown because Brown is
the only rival driver that he cares for.

Speaker 2 (04:40):
That's Renal for you.

Speaker 1 (04:42):
Oh yeah, yeah. And Matt Payne, always thinking of the team,
obviously really loved the way the car is set up.
He said he didn't do the victory lap burnout because
he's trying to save the gearbox for Sydney. He really
wanted to have a crack the fans obviously wanted to
have a crack at smoking things up. But he's looking
ahead of the next race already a sensible racer.

Speaker 2 (05:03):
Over here in New Zealand, we're rejoicing the fact that
we've got a woman through to the quarterfinals at wimbled
and LULUs on this morning, beating him a renocado.

Speaker 1 (05:12):
I have noticed that social media is alight with that,
so we've all got something looked forward to in week
two at the All England Tennis Club.

Speaker 2 (05:20):
Absolutely, Jim, good to catch up mate, you have a
great week.

Speaker 1 (05:24):
Yes, the Wallabies right till next weekend.

Speaker 2 (05:26):
Here we will. We'll wait and see what happens against Wales.
