Speaker 1 (00:00):
We were going to have another panel, but we can't
find Tim Myers in Sydney, former chief executive of Norwood.
But we've got the new well he's not the new
kid in town. He's been around the block a few times. Smiley,
Barrett Gee once again over to see the three boys.
Good to see that they're all starting. Smiley is Robin
(00:20):
doing the hard yards at home on the Taranaki dairy farm.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
No, she's got a feed up here on the just
bathing's out of the sun. Jeremy, Oh, I'm glad with me.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
I'm glad you're getting a break, and no doubt you'll
be in what Wellington next week for the second Bledderslow
Cup tests. See Smiley, I'm calling this one a thirteen
plus game for the All Blacks. And I see in
the sports news Joe Schmidt's talking about the mental scars.
But you you've been around rugby for a long time.
To get a kicking like that from the Pumas, they
(00:52):
must be a wee bit scarred, don't you. Reckon?
Speaker 2 (00:56):
Yeah, I never saw the game. I just sort of
seen the sort of highlights on on the telly, But yeah,
sort of had the copy. Heen really been and as
a twenty to seventeen a half at halftime year. So
it's coach come and stuff. Really, I mean it's it's
meant a latitude really, you know, I mean plows, a
fall off, checks, tackles. I've just gone to themselves really,
but sam Nette, they'll be Yeah, the All Banks has
(01:18):
just got to trade carefully. Really, they obviously want to. Yeah,
just carry on what the hell they've been planning? Really,
they're not far away from very closely, I believe in
South Africa from getting couple of wins, but just got
the born out of it White I believe, with which
they couldn't get there and you know, finish off. It
could have been a different story. But Ozzie will be Yeah,
(01:40):
they win. This one should be interesting, weren't it. So
they've got nothing for those.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
Well, an all Black team or a wounded all Black
team is a dangerous beast, and these guys are have
named a stronger starting fifteen. Everyone's basically back apart from
Ethan Blackader. And you might even argue, Smiley, I'd be
interested on your take. Would you start Satiti if Blackadder
(02:04):
was foot?
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Yeah, well it's it's sort of the same or really
we're a you know, the all blacks. You know, cages
in the past have sort of got the best players
out there and not necessarily your best positions, you know.
So it's but so and that, you know, I mean
here the very good debut last week, didn't he you know,
and a high work rate, which I like, you know,
I don't like seeing Fords just you know, sitting there
(02:27):
wide and you're not doing the work up front. You know,
it's it's good to see he's in there and the
thick of it. So yeah, he's it was a hell
of a challenge from last week. He stepped up. And
so for your played, I'm you yep, I would. I
would definitely. I would definitely have been the year.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Yeah, okay, that's interesting. You know, you certainly know your
rugby forward play pretty well. So you and Robin are
having a weekend off the farm, are you? You'll be
finished carving now, are you?
Speaker 2 (02:51):
There's all bar here. I can kill them on two hands,
what's left, So get home. They'll be probably three or
four when we're moving here. So now they'll be tidy
up now at the end of the months here. So
he's the end of the mountain. Yeah's just good. Everybody
break really carves all sort of settled down there, the
three MIBs who've got there, so the big ones are
justly to be range up around there kilos near so
(03:13):
off Milk. So yeah, that's that's fund. Then it's last week,
as you know, the end South Jeremy, the poor baggers
down they've copped it. Not worse us, but it's been here.
It's been pretty weird on Farmer. Yeah, I think you are,
but it's now on the mountain.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Yeah. I think Taranaki along with the bottom of the
South Islands probably and obviously the West Coast maybe they're
more used to it, but those are the areas that
have fared the worse out of this southerly or south
westerly weather system that keeps pounding us.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Yeah. Yeah, So we're definitely looking forward to final week
next week. But you know, to date it's been the
robin early on there, you know it it's been the
spring has been too good. You know, he's got to
be some there's got to be some rubbish coming around
the corner, you know, and fear enough it's it's it's
come but sun then it's well, you know, we'll get
through it. We's sort of a settlement on Hens, you know.
So it has been a good spring, you know. So
(04:05):
you know, volumes are up through frontier around the country,
you know, so just hopefully you know, those guys down
south of haven't heard too much news to any of
the would make the only text we see the jolly wet.
But you know in the poor guys, little lemming, you know,
have never have had too many losses, you know. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
Actually, to be fair, and I used to be a
sheep farmer, so I do know a wee bit about this.
Carving's tough and the rain and the mud, but I
think there's nothing worse than lemming. Leming.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
Yeah, do you ever run?
Speaker 1 (04:34):
You run a few sheep on your farm for the house?
Speaker 2 (04:38):
We do, Yeah, we do. Yeah. We hang our golf
course up the road with the boys leaning their trade.
They here, they run three how many years they run there?
Three and thirty odd years here? So I usually get
the little bit the stall ends in the in the
in February, you're just ready one there on the hills.
I mean they had the runoff here and they're they're
(04:59):
gone crazy, and they're they don't even look back. They
just get on the on the on the dairy land,
and the year they just grow like mushrooms.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
You all right, hey, Smiley, thank you very much for
your time. You'll have a great day in Sydney. The
weather forecasts apparently really good. You enjoy you and Robin
enjoy your weekend off the farm after carving. And good
to see three Barrett starting. And yeah, as I said,
it's a thirteen plus game, I reckon this one.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
Yeah, well I hope so, Jonnie, But to you it'll
be I'm sure the outers would be up for sure.
It should be a good game, boy accounts in afternoon
game and sunshining, so it should be a great occasion.
Speaker 1 (05:34):

its Smiley, Barrett.
