Speaker 1 (00:06):
Time to catch up with our residence Sporting Gury. Nathan
Burton here on the muster, Good afternoon. Nathan Taylor swift
Shake It Off from the album nineteen eighty nine, which
was it came out in twenty fourteen.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Yeah, it's almost a bit of a fitting thing song.
I guess as we we probably we're going to have
a bit of a chat about the Scott Robertson's all Blacks,
because Ett seems to have a few haters at the moment, doesn't.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
He hater's gone to hate, but they just need to
shake off. The Blues are playing at Twick and them,
although they haven't gone too badly there over the last
couple of occasions, but this England side, we can't underestimate it.
They're always pretty handy, especially at Twickers.
Speaker 3 (00:44):
It just seems to be we're at at the moment.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Every game sort of feels like a banana skin game,
doesn't it. I'm still not entirely sure how we got
past Ireland, even though in the end it was reasonably
comfortable and then and then Scotland was you know, certainly
not one of it.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
It wasn't a dominant win.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
We certainly wouldn't call it that they got the dob
done in the end with a bit of dmac magic
at the death there and then England, as you say,
will present a challenge of their own at Twickers. So
I guess we're anticipating a bit of an aerial assault
from George Ford and the rest of the English players
(01:22):
to try and see if we're good enough in the air.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Damien McKenzie being a specialist twenty two or twenty three
coming on and just dominating the game where he did
last week. This seems to be his niche and it's interesting.
I read an article yesterday talking about Ragby's not so
much about the first forty minutes dominating, but the bench
is just as important as who's starting, which is intriguing.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Yeah, it is intriguing. I don't know if i'd entirely agree.
I mean, I don't think you can you can't win
a game in the first twenty minutes, but I think
you can potentially lose one. I guess that it is
true that the bench has, over the last X number
of years has started to play probably an almost outsized
(02:05):
part in the game, and probably the spring.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
Box have led the way there.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
You know that they've somehow been able to develop a
squad of close to fifty international standard sort of players
and then they you know, they've they've done, They've won
games off the back of the bomb squad. And now
I think the term gets overused now, but it's definitely
the case in terms of the spring Box in New Zealand,
who were probably lamenting earlier in the year in an
(02:32):
ability to score points in the last twenty minutes. You know,
that's how they've got the minute to get the job
done in the last.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
Couple of tests.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
So if there has been one positive from this sort
of Grand Slam tour, I put that in an inverted commerce.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
I'm not sure if it is a.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
True Grand Slam tour, but in this Grand Slam tour
and that's that's that's been a positive for Scott Robinson.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
It's a Grand Slam in name only because let's be honest,
playing Ireland in Chicago isn't effectively a neutral venue.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Yeah, I think it's got a weesterisk over it, just
a one.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
Because of that.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
They they you know, if they get the job done,
they will walk away with wins over all the all.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
The home unions on a Northern tour.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
But as you say, one of them wasn't in Dublin,
So yeah, not a true Grand Slam for the Purists.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
Now, Charlancke. The Sherilankan cricket team, they're playing in Pakistan
at the moment, they're wanting to leave the country in
fair enough the bomb's gone off, but they're being told
hang on, you've got to stay.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Yeah, it seems that it's a pretty ruthless cau, isn't
it by their cricket association, the Sri Lankan team, who
I think back in two thousand and nine, we're very
close to an incident like this where a gunman sort.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Of shooting up the team bus.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
So there's some institutional memory, I guess, in terms of
being pretty close to this, and then this horrific bombing
incident that's that's just happened in Pakistan. You know, at
the end of the day, there's a lot of uf
that's bigger than cricket and and this is a this
is pretty harsh, I guess if you put yourself in
the player in the in the shoes of a of
(04:07):
a player that doesn't want any part of this and
just wants to come home, and then the Association of
saying there will be repercussions if.
Speaker 3 (04:14):
You if you choose to do this.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
So, yeah, it's a it's a pretty tough call.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
I think.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Tralakan Cricket has instructed all players, support staff and team
management to continue the tour as scheduled, saying any player
who returns despokee the directive will be replaced immediately to
avoid disrupting the tour. If anyone does that, however, a
formal review will be conducted to assess their actions and
an appropriate decision will be made upon the conclusion of
(04:42):
the review. This is disgusting.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
Yeah, it's a bit of a bit of a warning
wrapped up in a three to order or vice versa,
isn't it.
Speaker 3 (04:51):
And and you know obviously that you know that the show,
the show needs to.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
Go on in terms of in terms of cricket. But years,
I say, and we put yourself and the shoes of
the players, and you'd be pretty keen to be on
the bus and on the plane home, won't you.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
The Moonshine this is coming up as well, I believe.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Yeah, email Team Moonshine February fourteen next year. And the
early Bred entries are open now. So for all those
people thinking about this summer and needing a bit of
motivation to get out there and put the running shoes
on or dust off the bike and get a bit
of riding done.
Speaker 3 (05:24):
Obviously, it's that it's.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
A great event based in and around Dolomore Park and
the opportunity to ride some of those trails and fantastic
once a year access to some private farmland. We're so
grateful to the landowners who open up their paddocks and
let us go through there as well. So you have great,
great event Email Team Moonshine Trail. You can head along
(05:48):
to the Active Southern website and register today.
Speaker 1 (05:51):

Speaker 3 (05:55):
Lovely thanks mate, good.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Laugh out loud with ag proud because life on the
land can be a laughing matter. Thought to us by
Sheerwell Data working to help the livestock farmer. A man
who died after being hit by a volleyball got buried.
His long suffering wife told reporters after this morning's funeral
it was a lovely service. That's us for the afternoon.
(06:24):

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
