Hello and welcome back to the verdict of an epic weekend of rugby. Records have been broken.
spk_0
The history books have been rewritten and the books are back. Massive game on the weekend.
spk_0
What a performance by the box. The books are back. But so is Chevy.
spk_0
With one leg. I live in New Zealand.
spk_0
Chevy awesome to have you back. Amas Eflikki was good value on the show but it's never the same.
spk_0
It's not the same. He made some bad bets for you as well.
spk_0
Why did you give it to Flakey? He was backing the whole black.
spk_0
I was backing the whole black in the second test match.
spk_0
Shimi. Talk to us. Before we get to the end.
spk_0
Let the rugby remain the highlight. Give us a quick.
spk_0
Are you sure the rugby is going to stay there?
spk_0
Your views on that game. What a performance. Especially the last 40 or the second 40.
spk_0
It was as clinical as we've seen from the box.
spk_0
I've been on many of these tours and commentators. We've all been on the spring box.
spk_0
This is going to be outside the two world cup wins.
spk_0
This is going to be the performance number three.
spk_0
That second half. I sort of shocked even afterwards.
spk_0
I spoke to some of the New Zealand commentators.
spk_0
There was no feeling at half time that this was going to happen.
spk_0
It was going to come out like a solid result.
spk_0
You've got to say when I see the team on Monday, I think he controlled the narrative from there.
spk_0
The whole chapter was a young back-line. It was this.
spk_0
The performance. You've got to mention a guy like Damon Phillips.
spk_0
He was on another planet on the weekend. He was in the zone properly.
spk_0
But what a performance. He was on the flight with some of the guy's colour.
spk_0
When the air hostages walks around with his champagne or water.
spk_0
It was good to see the guy celebrate. They're fairly deserved.
spk_0
I would say it's the full 80.
spk_0
We laid the foundation in the first 40.
spk_0
Maybe we got a bit more reward out of scrums.
spk_0
Maybe we were a bit more accurate.
spk_0
I think that Damour would have broken earlier.
spk_0
But the fact of the matter is that we dominated so many areas
spk_0
that the ball was in the air behind the all-blacks.
spk_0
They were forced to turn around, run back.
spk_0
Every collision went south-Africa's way. Set piece we grew.
spk_0
As our scrum was so dominant, our line-out was sorted out.
spk_0
But the aerial game was what really bullied them.
spk_0
They were running backwards. They were hanging by a thread by the end of that first half.
spk_0
Second half, they capitulated.
spk_0
And it was only when we got scoreboard pressures.
spk_0
The biggest moment for me was that scrum right after half-time.
spk_0
Our sub-timing perfect. Volkulow comes on penalty advantage in the trial of the back of that.
spk_0
As soon as scoreboard pressure happened, we had 70% territory at that time.
spk_0
And they hung themselves too many failings in their game plan.
spk_0
And too many soaked tacklers.
spk_0
As brutal block rugby goes, this is right on top of it.
spk_0
And you add on to that what enhanced our physicality is the fact that
spk_0
away we went from the one pass-ruck, we saw the last two games.
spk_0
Cape Dantes mentioned that Eden played the link-up game.
spk_0
Direct, but tip-pastor stay on top of the breakdown.
spk_0
And you see that through the scoot from Siakulisi.
spk_0
You see it through a lot of pick and goes.
spk_0
You see it through Kuvasaraynach, you know, Grand Williams, Damien Valemsa.
spk_0
And last week we were nervous when they announced the team just because of the fear factor.
spk_0
We all said if they get it right, we can beat the all-black's outthought by ten.
spk_0
I don't see 43 coming.
spk_0
But we needed one man to step up and that was Damien Valemsa.
spk_0
And Marwood, how good was he?
spk_0
And it wasn't just him.
spk_0
I think we needed one to stand up.
spk_0
But I mean, we had so many standing up.
spk_0
And you know, that first off, we were in studios as well.
spk_0
And we were saying like, you ten seven behind, but there's just a feeling that we had so much dominance.
spk_0
And if it wasn't for the two disallowed charts, it could have been so different.
spk_0
But you certainly going into the changing, feeling confident from us, are that really important to you?
spk_0
Yeah. And you know, you look at the territory from you as the big thing.
spk_0
Forget about possession.
spk_0
You can run the ball all day in your 22 meter area.
spk_0
You Zeeland, for some reason, they can't catch a high ball.
spk_0
I don't know what it's a coaching area or what it, they're kicking him.
spk_0
They cannot win the kicking game.
spk_0
It started against France.
spk_0
You know, they sort of managed to get away with it.
spk_0
And also, they're back to back.
spk_0
So the big question was them, was listening to we can win one test, can we double up?
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
And do another one.
spk_0
They're saying Wellington, no, never make a, the old blacks must never play in Wellington again.
spk_0
No, it's got nothing to do with Wellington.
spk_0
When we beat them the first test, no one spoke about the refing that, listen here.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
There was a bit of dodgingness around there.
spk_0
If you accept that we won the game, but there were things that weren't our way.
spk_0
Note was we won every time a South African mentioned the ref,
spk_0
which was a complaining, complaining.
spk_0
This time the ref was a lot better.
spk_0
He penalized certain things.
spk_0
We got to war from the scram.
spk_0
And then the chickens came home to use properly.
spk_0
But even the first off, we didn't get our own way.
spk_0
You're in the scram, we didn't get the return on the scrams.
spk_0
Or a couple of calls that again I thought didn't go our way.
spk_0
And you kind of felt, you completely saw the Africa.
spk_0
If you take anything out of the two test matches, like we had 13 entries,
spk_0
22 entries in the first game, they had four, they scored three tries.
spk_0
We had 17 entries on the weekend.
spk_0
That's 30 entries into the two games.
spk_0
spk_0
In the two games.
spk_0
We scored eight tries.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
And New Zealand this time around had entries and couldn't convert in the second game.
spk_0
You know, some mistakes that they made.
spk_0
Take nothing away.
spk_0
I think their triad they scored.
spk_0
Brilliant.
spk_0
Was one of the all-time greats.
spk_0
Of course, to cause to cause to cause to cause.
spk_0
Skill execution.
spk_0
And that was pretty much the bulk of their 22 entries.
spk_0
Was the 30 seconds or 25 seconds they were in a half.
spk_0
But that triad came from a scram short arm and then they just went side to side.
spk_0
And I think that was the plan.
spk_0
The first test match was, how do we get a result?
spk_0
Second test match is, how do we prove a point?
spk_0
Tempo.
spk_0
Tempo, side to side.
spk_0
Their first set was also not scared to go 15 meters back and try and play around the spring box.
spk_0
And worked once.
spk_0
I don't know.
spk_0
They've always got that ability.
spk_0
But the rest of the game, as soon as they try to go coast to coast,
spk_0
give up on the game line.
spk_0
They've got absolutely hammed.
spk_0
And the problem is, the ball was behind their back of foot.
spk_0
The entire game.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
And I think that's where the credit must really go to Rassi,
spk_0
all the coaching staff and the players.
spk_0
Because you feel that a less experienced team, certainly a far less experienced back on a back on
spk_0
that's never played together before.
spk_0
But then also you had injuries, and Lwit Diyaach had 9th minute.
spk_0
Kuberz Ranaak goes off HIA.
spk_0
Sasha goes off HIA.
spk_0
Doesn't return.
spk_0
Fassi goes off.
spk_0
So you had to reshuffle the whole back.
spk_0
spk_0
And still it worked.
spk_0
So that shows an element of maturity within that squad.
spk_0
Even though they were up against it, they were still able to stick to their guns and execute.
spk_0
Now, let's start with the analysis.
spk_0
And I think that the big elephant in the room is like,
spk_0
should we what happened to you?
spk_0
Who's that?
spk_0
You just explained what?
spk_0
Can you explain what happened to you?
spk_0
Is that what happened?
spk_0
Who's that guy?
spk_0
No, they slept so well.
spk_0
What happened?
spk_0
It was that spring ball at NAD.
spk_0
This is not what we're getting serious now.
spk_0
That's a spring ball training at the Jury Collins Stadium.
spk_0
It's a club field.
spk_0
I mean with a little stand there, but there's a little bit of a hill at Smolhill.
spk_0
Not that a bank.
spk_0
And the other side.
spk_0
So I was just curious to see during training.
spk_0
Let me go have a look.
spk_0
And I was wondering what your spring ball training from the back just to look at that attack.
spk_0
So I walked up the hill, had a look to the beef field, you're boring.
spk_0
Then as I was walking down to the hill, but slippery.
spk_0
I was like, Jesus, feel slippery.
spk_0
And then as I looked down, my foot slipped.
spk_0
Now instead of the foot, go down.
spk_0
You go the way I was pulling your backside.
spk_0
You go a quarter in the med.
spk_0
And then my knee basically fell down this way.
spk_0
And I heard a pop in my knee.
spk_0
And I stumbled on that one.
spk_0
So you know what I'm saying?
spk_0
I'm so even laughing.
spk_0
Funny, not funny.
spk_0
I stumbled a diamond of tumbling down.
spk_0
And my first thought was no one would be able to see me because I just disappeared on the side,
spk_0
down behind the hill.
spk_0
And as you walked down the back of it.
spk_0
But I threw the biggest eight ball, my foot.
spk_0
Behind the hill, the liaison officer said,
spk_0
I heard that pop, what happened?
spk_0
Is it your keys or not?
spk_0
I said, no, no, it's money.
spk_0
Then he called the doctor, doctor came with Dr. Jerome and Andy Robyn the physio.
spk_0
They came, took me.
spk_0
But I'm walking past the hole.
spk_0
So Raci sees me.
spk_0
He's like, what's wrong?
spk_0
Are you okay?
spk_0
Now I'm becoming this unwanted distraction.
spk_0
They bring the obelisks as we can.
spk_0
There's a big movement.
spk_0
They're shitting me.
spk_0
So we just got injured.
spk_0
Exactly.
spk_0
I'm limping down the side.
spk_0
He puts me in the car.
spk_0
First thing says, paint out a tin.
spk_0
I'm like, doc.
spk_0
No, it's probably, probably past 10, 11, 12.
spk_0
It's so I'm straighting now because of the paint.
spk_0
And when they drag me to the car, we in the car there gets out.
spk_0
It brings out this pipe.
spk_0
A little piece pipe.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
I was on another plane.
spk_0
Exactly.
spk_0
You see, just take puff.
spk_0
And then obviously inhale, exhale with your nose.
spk_0
I think I did it about 30 times in about 10 seconds.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
Gave me the morphine into the car straight.
spk_0
But by that stage, you're on another planet.
spk_0
Because cause of the morphine's kicked in and this pipe has kicked in.
spk_0
Put on a trolley outside the hotel because there's no wheelchair.
spk_0
Trolley into the lift.
spk_0
Up into my room down there.
spk_0
Then I saw the doctor late and he was finally scared.
spk_0
Yeah, because here we go.
spk_0
Is that the...
spk_0
That was me.
spk_0
So you...
spk_0
I spoke about the elephant in the room.
spk_0
Is that an elephant trolley that they use?
spk_0
That is the elephant in the elevator.
spk_0
You check that.
spk_0
So there's no trolley.
spk_0
So that was straight up to my room.
spk_0
She was off.
spk_0
So all the King's horses and all the King's men came and they helped them to duck in.
spk_0
They couldn't put a stick together again.
spk_0
They could have been out of the...
spk_0
Together again.
spk_0
From them it was just...
spk_0
What?
spk_0
Crutches, ice, compression and then...
spk_0
And then an entrance at the game.
spk_0
She made it.
spk_0
Hey.
spk_0
I can explain that one.
spk_0
I can explain.
spk_0
I'll send you a washing machine.
spk_0
I'll send you a washing machine.
spk_0
I was so concerned about you.
spk_0
Oh, dear, Sherry.
spk_0
Thank you, thank you.
spk_0
You started forming me.
spk_0
Thanks, Sky.
spk_0
We just couldn't get a wheelchair for this episode.
spk_0
We were a few.
spk_0
That one for you.
spk_0
spk_0
And that was the distance between walking up and down.
spk_0
I've got to kick out some of the washes, laughing at it.
spk_0
Oh.
spk_0
Sky, there were guys on the crowd.
spk_0
As the guys were wheeling me past the guys,
spk_0
they were shimmy.
spk_0
Was it really?
spk_0
Exactly.
spk_0
We called it up here.
spk_0
We were like, no, definitely.
spk_0
That's the story you're going with, right?
spk_0
Yeah, that's true story.
spk_0
Okay, Shams.
spk_0
Thanks, we can love you.
spk_0
Who's that guy?
spk_0
We can love you for a while.
spk_0
We've been in...
spk_0
Well, we've been in that position a lot.
spk_0
It's colouring you also.
spk_0
Yeah, we've both heard it.
spk_0
But you're hoping for a quick recovery.
spk_0
Up tomorrow.
spk_0
You know what I say, you're not going for the MRI scared.
spk_0
No, this often...
spk_0
He's keeping that.
spk_0
A lot of dormicum.
spk_0
I'm going to be another planet again.
spk_0
And then you're going to be the night of the dragon again.
spk_0
I think we're definitely going to pay you a visit.
spk_0
Okay, guys.
spk_0
spk_0
We're taking the cameras with and visiting you in the hotel.
spk_0
Let's start with the actual analysis.
spk_0
What I've done, I've basically clipped the game as it started, as it progressed.
spk_0
Okay, the first one we get to is the dominance that we showed within the game,
spk_0
but then the disallowed try.
spk_0
So, great play by the box.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
No return on the screen.
spk_0
We got penalty advantage.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
Perfect option.
spk_0
spk_0
Great execution.
spk_0
Amazing work by Jordi Barrett.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
I mean, that's...
spk_0
I mean, box when we get scrammaged advantage, I mean, it's almost like nine out of ten times you go school.
spk_0
What I love is the barras on the weekend.
spk_0
Take nothing away from Jordi Barrett.
spk_0
The highlight is how we kicked in shape.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
After the reward from winning the aerial battle, we kicked in shape.
spk_0
And we are kicking in shape.
spk_0
It's the best way to have numbers spreading on the ball.
spk_0
Such an amazing option.
spk_0
But how's that work right from Jordi Barrett?
spk_0
We see it in the second of Grand Williams.
spk_0
Well, Jordi Barrett in schools that nine out of ten times.
spk_0
He grabs him.
spk_0
Jordi, if you just a quick one, also the way we started the game,
spk_0
we went to that midfield bomb,
spk_0
fascigated back.
spk_0
One of the sudden we were on the attack.
spk_0
We've got them under pressure.
spk_0
So, I think the mindset was a little bit different.
spk_0
The traditional way of box would kick right.
spk_0
You know, weight them, box kick, put pressure, attack from the line.
spk_0
At the fact that we kicked short, took them one, the aerial battle,
spk_0
and we got into a general play.
spk_0
And guys got their hands on the ball, also helped quite a lot.
spk_0
But also just to compare the first test match versus this one.
spk_0
From the first test match, we were under the bump from the very first second of the game.
spk_0
You know, 14 null down very quickly.
spk_0
This time around, we had the dominance.
spk_0
We had the territory dominance and position.
spk_0
But we won't able, again, 11 minutes on the clock already.
spk_0
We'll get to 12 minutes.
spk_0
We get the disillard, try it, we're then kicking out, we don't get a return.
spk_0
And now again here, again, you're great attack.
spk_0
Good damn you.
spk_0
But don't get the return.
spk_0
But big change for me and I might say it.
spk_0
You know, it was half flat, we are.
spk_0
Look at the change in the 22 on the game line.
spk_0
On the game line.
spk_0
Kubas Rana, again, look at the next carry.
spk_0
Flat on the game line.
spk_0
Short pass, no chance for the defence to come up.
spk_0
On to the game line, Arches Naman over gets picked up for a little knock on by Kubas Rana.
spk_0
But that's how dynamic we were at the Rack.
spk_0
It's completely different to the previous two weeks where we were like one pass to the pod.
spk_0
Almost back to 2019.
spk_0
Hard dynamic we were years.
spk_0
Almost like, you know, you don't want to compare us to France.
spk_0
But half France goes about it in the 22.
spk_0
Like, stay on top of it.
spk_0
All 15, flood through the gates.
spk_0
Try and stop it.
spk_0
Stop us if we can.
spk_0
And we had so much physical dominance into this game.
spk_0
That's all blacks eventually.
spk_0
People say they gave up. They didn't give up.
spk_0
They just ran out of puff.
spk_0
The urgency at the break down was a lot of...
spk_0
On quick ball.
spk_0
Sasha can take the ball flat.
spk_0
Villains can come in.
spk_0
But as soon as they saw the lights come on, as soon as that free kick was given,
spk_0
who's up there taking, say, give me the ball.
spk_0
Damien and Villains can get a little bit of meters.
spk_0
Good placement.
spk_0
Then it's action on action there.
spk_0
Again, we would completely dominate.
spk_0
Obviously, this knock on here called.
spk_0
But then, you know, I thought, okay, cool.
spk_0
You know, we're doing the right things.
spk_0
You're asking the right questions.
spk_0
And everybody wants the ball.
spk_0
And it's the correct call as well.
spk_0
So, let's just be very clear about that.
spk_0
The concern we felt within in the studio at that stage was,
spk_0
we've got this dominance.
spk_0
We're not able to get points on the board.
spk_0
New Zealand will probably get the ball once and score a try from it.
spk_0
And that is exactly what happened.
spk_0
You know, we only see the last part of this.
spk_0
But side to side to side to side to side to eventually score it.
spk_0
Again, great defense in the edges.
spk_0
But we just ran out of numbers eventually.
spk_0
I mean, this is the plan, I think, was to go coast to coast.
spk_0
And skill execution of the charts.
spk_0
Beautiful try on debut card to get in.
spk_0
But that started from the end.
spk_0
How deep they started playing off of it was a showroom from a scrim.
spk_0
And this is the only time it worked against us.
spk_0
There's opportunities for them to unlock us later in the game.
spk_0
But by that stage, they were run off their feet.
spk_0
Skill execution wasn't, and decision-making wasn't good.
spk_0
They kicked a lot in a second off too as well.
spk_0
But that was a bad product from being absolutely, you know,
spk_0
pushed back into your own half.
spk_0
And they started feeling scoreboard pressure.
spk_0
And that's why for me, just after half time that first,
spk_0
that second try we scored was off the chart important first.
spk_0
Look at the razor blueprint.
spk_0
This is probably it.
spk_0
You could hear them before the game tomorrow.
spk_0
They want to play with the tempo.
spk_0
There's a feel there that they can outrun you.
spk_0
They almost match us at set-piece and can outskill us.
spk_0
That's the whole, but you know, the reality is then you've got to match us at set-piece.
spk_0
And they didn't manage to do that.
spk_0
But there's so many other things.
spk_0
Like I still don't get the kicking.
spk_0
I don't understand how I will Jordan, Damien McKenzie.
spk_0
These guys cannot get up in the air.
spk_0
They feel the harbour.
spk_0
If I've got with them, I don't think they've got such a clear dedicated shape as us.
spk_0
If we play with Tony Bollers, we name it now.
spk_0
Like our shape is quite clearly identified.
spk_0
Like the three or four, nine depends if that fourth goes there.
spk_0
The two of ten.
spk_0
And this week we played the direct options more often than not.
spk_0
With them, yes, they're part of nine is sort of identified.
spk_0
But post that, it's all a little bit lateral.
spk_0
Now it's got a clear job of how to create it.
spk_0
They've got their forwards, ramming in the trams.
spk_0
And that's all good and well.
spk_0
Until you get cut off.
spk_0
If you get cut off, then they sort of disjointed midfield,
spk_0
drug wedges they go to.
spk_0
And they've got to return to the boot, unfortunately.
spk_0
So, yeah, the box was supreme.
spk_0
So another example, just of how they were able to get under our skin a little bit,
spk_0
which we saw in the first test match.
spk_0
And even though our racks were far better in this game,
spk_0
there were elements of sloppiness.
spk_0
And again, there we see...
spk_0
Was that animal?
spk_0
Yeah, there was.
spk_0
There was a animal in there.
spk_0
There was a animal in there.
spk_0
So the point I'm trying to make is that, up until this stage,
spk_0
we were playing well.
spk_0
We were playing the kind of rugby that we wanted them to play,
spk_0
but we weren't seeing it and we used to see the...
spk_0
So by the end of the day, it's Strap Rist.
spk_0
It's Strap Rist there, holds on to the ball and there.
spk_0
It gets the knock on it.
spk_0
And if the referee picks that up, that's a professional call.
spk_0
That's a yellow.
spk_0
Where's the term of it?
spk_0
Yeah, but well, it...
spk_0
Where's the term of it?
spk_0
And it's...
spk_0
Well, just before that, taking a count,
spk_0
he came in board for the knock-off.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
And where's the term of it?
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
But decisions like that could potentially have
spk_0
a massive influence eventually in the game.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
They didn't spot that.
spk_0
And it felt in a way as if the game was at a tipping point.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
We didn't get to return on our attack.
spk_0
We didn't get to return on the amount of possession
spk_0
and territory we had.
spk_0
And then also they were getting under our skin.
spk_0
You know, Kuba's right now, second knock on there at the rack
spk_0
to provide, you know, laughing, clapping at him.
spk_0
And you could see the emotions getting...
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
Getting the bed of them.
spk_0
But it didn't happen.
spk_0
And we stayed calm.
spk_0
Was that in a way the difference between last week and this week?
spk_0
Yeah, look, there's...
spk_0
First of all, I think the reason why there's so much talking to the ref
spk_0
in the beginning, it was a continuation from last week.
spk_0
Because what happens is I think it gets the feeling that players lose a trust.
spk_0
Trust in the ref saying, maybe the same thing's happening.
spk_0
You know, there's a knock on there, but there's a knock on against that.
spk_0
What's happening is it up against us, whatever.
spk_0
That's why I'm a shakali came in and had a chat towards the insane guys.
spk_0
There's too much chat there.
spk_0
But I thought originally you start thinking, okay,
spk_0
somewhere along the line, New Zealand are going to attack.
spk_0
We can't squander so many opportunities.
spk_0
They're going to get a chance and eventually they'll score.
spk_0
And that's what happened when they got that try, that cursed to curse to curse try.
spk_0
So you start thinking to yourself, okay, we've got so many chances.
spk_0
Somewhere it needs to tick over and convert.
spk_0
But again, Scala, we're ticking all the boxes.
spk_0
So that was our comfort is where the game was getting played.
spk_0
You know, it's different if we were pinned in our own half.
spk_0
And then the kicking everyone said dominant.
spk_0
Scorbal precious what we called for at Half-Diamond Studio.
spk_0
We were sitting there going like, as soon as we get our heads up front,
spk_0
they're going to hang themselves.
spk_0
Just wait till we get that.
spk_0
When do we get ahead?
spk_0
Do we take the points?
spk_0
Because like, I mean, we're also a little bit, you know,
spk_0
shell shocked off the last week's lineup performance then.
spk_0
We kick our first line at art.
spk_0
We're execution on the left that goes over the top,
spk_0
we squander our first opportunity.
spk_0
You think, are we watching a replay of the first system?
spk_0
Okay, we'll have a quick break.
spk_0
When we come back, we will show you exactly where the turning point was.
spk_0
And what happened off today?
spk_0
Cody from Paul has sold multiple vehicles to Weebarkhars.
spk_0
Suspicious.
spk_0
I think so.
spk_0
Is that a crime?
spk_0
No.
spk_0
Where are you getting the cars?
spk_0
I buy them and I sell them at the spot like a normal person.
spk_0
Okay.
spk_0
No, man. I'm just no guarantee season.
spk_0
I know a good deal when I see one.
spk_0
That's Excel.
spk_0
Mint.
spk_0
What's more stressful?
spk_0
Tax season.
spk_0
We're selling a car to Weebarkhars.
spk_0
Tax season, obviously.
spk_0
Weebarkhars, the easiest way to sell your car by far.
spk_0
Okay, so we were 25 minutes into the game
spk_0
and still no score from the box.
spk_0
But then this happened.
spk_0
And so many times we've seen the influence of an intercept.
spk_0
And the change that gets created because of it.
spk_0
So you took us through the intercept?
spk_0
No, actually, Scala actually took us through a nice thing
spk_0
in studio on the weekend.
spk_0
That made it into an interview.
spk_0
Exactly.
spk_0
It is almost like a classical touches or sevens move
spk_0
where you actually dummy Billy Proctor the ball carrier.
spk_0
You jing towards him and then he stands his ground.
spk_0
And Billy Proctor's one of those.
spk_0
We've all done them in a touches game where you let them go
spk_0
and you realise I should have held on to you.
spk_0
And look where Chezlin comes from,
spk_0
closing in, jing's inside.
spk_0
And people often go, you can't intercept with one hand.
spk_0
If you knock stand on, they give him a yellow card.
spk_0
You go with the one hand, it sits in your hand.
spk_0
But also I think the thing is it is taking it up.
spk_0
And also getting his body close and turning it so that it goes up.
spk_0
But that little jing is spectacular.
spk_0
That's a little subtlety you take for granted.
spk_0
And also it's only Chezlin.
spk_0
You get like, he's such a good defender.
spk_0
Hard to read those situations.
spk_0
Does he just rush and try and get ball of man?
spk_0
He would have been too late.
spk_0
And plays with a defender, gets the intercept.
spk_0
Similar to what he had, did he do it first?
spk_0
2018.
spk_0
Because the thing is also the context of the game.
spk_0
This was so important.
spk_0
We've done so much to dominate with no reward.
spk_0
Because if you, I just want to get to that,
spk_0
he takes away so many of the options.
spk_0
So he takes away, and I can't get to the piece now.
spk_0
But he takes away the option for the kick for 10.
spk_0
Because he's staying back.
spk_0
So 10 makes the pause.
spk_0
As soon as he makes the pause, he comes up and again falls
spk_0
that last number in the line.
spk_0
And then even though there's a two-man overlap,
spk_0
he goes for that option.
spk_0
He's seen that picture before exactly the same as in 2018.
spk_0
Makes the perfect read gets the interception.
spk_0
So again, it is a skill that comes with Tom.
spk_0
And he has now shown that he can get a drive.
spk_0
If they get the pass away, it's a try.
spk_0
So it's a 14 point swing.
spk_0
Also like an area where I think we were better.
spk_0
Like we mentioned at last week, we had that sort of stagger in our defense
spk_0
or that sort of pause.
spk_0
Check.
spk_0
We forgot, I'd be honest, to defend the ball.
spk_0
Doesn't matter if they've got four or five numbers out wide.
spk_0
You can highlight those numbers.
spk_0
But you still got to try and get the ball there.
spk_0
And this week in, you know, a special mention to Cannon-Mudion,
spk_0
defensive number 13.
spk_0
Cut the wide options.
spk_0
He cut the wide options down.
spk_0
And then it frees up a play like Chezlin to sort of come into his own
spk_0
whether he's going for the intercept or going for the man in ball hit.
spk_0
What I'm saying, John, what I like about the cuts of wide options,
spk_0
even if you missed the read, you could see the cover defense.
spk_0
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
spk_0
Even then, especially now, when I thought,
spk_0
initially, you know, even if you look back, they were that Chezlin intercept.
spk_0
There was actually a couple of numbers coming behind us.
spk_0
John, sure, they would have made meters and noticed being spaced out wide.
spk_0
But at least there was someone there to actually cover.
spk_0
So let's make your call, buddy.
spk_0
But we'll back you if you missed it.
spk_0
Yeah. Again, good decision, Mike.
spk_0
I thought we were really good.
spk_0
You've already touched on the skulk.
spk_0
It's staying on top of it.
spk_0
This is just an example where, you know, the dynamic rack, the off-load,
spk_0
just the intent was just so much better.
spk_0
And that guy, Jasper VCs, carries was phenomenal.
spk_0
He was so good.
spk_0
If you've taken a count, he hasn't played for six weeks, has he?
spk_0
Error contest.
spk_0
Error contest.
spk_0
spk_0
Get a best thing.
spk_0
And it's...
spk_0
We'll also look us over the ball.
spk_0
It's here, over the ball, looking after it.
spk_0
I mean, but a diamond, keeping it dynamic.
spk_0
A player, make a couple of meters.
spk_0
People so often forget about diamonds, they're in injury, you know,
spk_0
a ravaged season.
spk_0
But he's done this at Flare for the Box.
spk_0
He's done it at fullback.
spk_0
We've all had the inkling that I think, you know,
spk_0
12 is his best position.
spk_0
How good was Ethan Hooker?
spk_0
Check the battle.
spk_0
Every battle we won.
spk_0
The game line was ours for the taking.
spk_0
I love the fact that Archesneman was excellent.
spk_0
Post-context, he's strongest suit, but how we keep the ball alive.
spk_0
And often when you start off-loading from the ground, you think...
spk_0
A lot of coaches think, well, that's where you get loose.
spk_0
If you have a number in front of you, you just run us.
spk_0
It's almost like my momentum touched it.
spk_0
You draw, we all played.
spk_0
You just stay on top of the ball.
spk_0
Stay on top of the ball.
spk_0
And that was phenomenal by the spring box.
spk_0
So, you know, the pressure constantly, again, we were there.
spk_0
But the old...
spk_0
Hard to defend against it.
spk_0
It is.
spk_0
You can't get there.
spk_0
It's impossible.
spk_0
It's a concert you're defense.
spk_0
But the old issue that we've had, it was, again, 22 meter entries,
spk_0
not being able to capitalize on that.
spk_0
And that was a wavy fire.
spk_0
You have all this dominance, but no scoreboard pressure.
spk_0
And also, then, you know, things like this happen, where we were caught,
spk_0
on a ways, at times.
spk_0
Look at Bowden Barrett.
spk_0
He sees the space.
spk_0
He sees the space.
spk_0
Inexperience a little bit of Ethan Rucker.
spk_0
This was also when Fassi was down injured.
spk_0
You see there in the bottom left corner.
spk_0
He's out injured.
spk_0
Referee doesn't stop the game.
spk_0
I actually think Ethan was down in this...
spk_0
Ethan was down...
spk_0
Fassi and Ethan were bloodbunned.
spk_0
They're Fassi apparently.
spk_0
We don't know yet, but it looks like we're in a fight.
spk_0
Both down.
spk_0
Both down.
spk_0
Both down, medics on the field.
spk_0
You don't stop the game.
spk_0
Sharp-eye Bowden Barrett.
spk_0
100%.
spk_0
You know, and this game is nice and good.
spk_0
Nice and good, man.
spk_0
Getting the ball into the space.
spk_0
But you kind of got the feeling that they were trying to build momentum.
spk_0
But again, a massive change between last week and this week.
spk_0
Because this line art, they don't execute.
spk_0
New Zealand.
spk_0
So they get the line art from that kick.
spk_0
Throw it over.
spk_0
We defend it better.
spk_0
And then we have a goal.
spk_0
I mean, the awareness when the ball's over the 15-20.
spk_0
That's exactly it.
spk_0
Last week, we tried to get it over the 15-1.
spk_0
Well, it's a TT disrupt at this week.
spk_0
They go over the 15.
spk_0
I don't think it's the call ever right there.
spk_0
C.A. Kilesi just steps across bumps in the back support.
spk_0
The lift goes missing.
spk_0
And then, I mean, one thing we've got attention is...
spk_0
That's Damien Williams close contact skills.
spk_0
That's why we think 12 is his position.
spk_0
It's unbelievable.
spk_0
It's built to Jesus' feet, all sort of, scull it.
spk_0
Just two within contact.
spk_0
Poor decision there by Damien Mackenzie.
spk_0
And again...
spk_0
And this is a recurring theme of this entire game.
spk_0
Our exits and the big swings in this game.
spk_0
That was a five-meter line art for this.
spk_0
Yes.
spk_0
And if they play this through, just look at Bowden Barrett.
spk_0
Look at him quickly.
spk_0
Hands on head.
spk_0
Absolutely.
spk_0
That's just before after.
spk_0
Broken.
spk_0
And that's not only him.
spk_0
It's all of the pack of forwards.
spk_0
And then when people say they gave up, they didn't give up.
spk_0
They were guessed.
spk_0
So every collision went the spring box away.
spk_0
The game was getting played behind them.
spk_0
And when you end up running backwards like that,
spk_0
you feel like you're chasing shadows.
spk_0
It's almost like the spring box had 50 men running on the ball.
spk_0
And they've got seven men trying to defend it.
spk_0
That's what happened this whole game.
spk_0
And this was...
spk_0
I mean art timings for the subs.
spk_0
And these two games have been just...
spk_0
Emaculate.
spk_0
I know.
spk_0
Also got the selection right with...
spk_0
I mean, the other 100 vessels covers ground line.
spk_0
But also like a loose four guy runs.
spk_0
So is that one kick?
spk_0
Where he's in the front line?
spk_0
In the chase line, he's up there trying to chase the New Zealand fallback or whatever.
spk_0
You're running out of here.
spk_0
You're running out of here exactly.
spk_0
These guys...
spk_0
I mean, those looked at some time.
spk_0
I'd like to see the ball in play in this.
spk_0
Because it was...
spk_0
It was probably one of the highest you've seen in the last game.
spk_0
If you look at our team setup,
spk_0
I don't think it's a fluke that we won the aerial battle.
spk_0
If we think what players wear on the field,
spk_0
upper-leather fussy.
spk_0
Hooker.
spk_0
Hooker.
spk_0
Chasen call be.
spk_0
Damien Williams.
spk_0
Yeah, Kaden.
spk_0
Kaden.
spk_0
One of them going in the end.
spk_0
Kaden Moody.
spk_0
And you know, like our first kickoff sort of sums up our intention.
spk_0
Down the middle.
spk_0
Fussy wins it back.
spk_0
They kicked, deep left, the entire game.
spk_0
And Jasper was great.
spk_0
Two Jasper carrying it up.
spk_0
Ethan Hooker against Carter McKenzie.
spk_0
Now, in 2015, we played a semi-final against him.
spk_0
We won the first four Breiner Banner versus Neha and Molnus.
spk_0
I swapped them.
spk_0
And they swapped him with Smith.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
He didn't miss another one.
spk_0
Like...
spk_0
Well, Jordan is the best player in there.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
Why doesn't he swap?
spk_0
Why isn't he...
spk_0
Or kicker to the right.
spk_0
You know, trying...
spk_0
Yeah, I've seen the narrative.
spk_0
I actually saw Molnus Carter and he told me that.
spk_0
He said, Hibbana was all over him.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
Until they said, listen, yeah.
spk_0
Chasen, you got the chip.
spk_0
Yeah, Chasen, swap that around.
spk_0
It's what's needed in the moment.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
You didn't miss the other one.
spk_0
Talking about what's needed in the moment.
spk_0
Yes, Damien was selected at 12, but then with Fussy going off,
spk_0
moved to fullback.
spk_0
He was brilliantly there.
spk_0
But this guy, in Pictionary as well, moving to 12.
spk_0
You know, first play, dominant scram.
spk_0
You know, he's able to attract quite a few players
spk_0
with his carrying ability.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
Everything about this play was perfect.
spk_0
From the scram all the way through to the tri-being squad.
spk_0
I went... like we can talk through and see how they...
spk_0
I mean, that's unbelievable.
spk_0
Look at the all black speck of Fords now.
spk_0
So we're going behind...
spk_0
So here's the rock. It's not formed.
spk_0
Look where they are.
spk_0
See how...
spk_0
I mean, Arisavir is supposed to get on the fold.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
He's 20 meters from it.
spk_0
What a pass.
spk_0
And how's that for a ball?
spk_0
He's not noticeable.
spk_0
He's not renowned for his soft skill.
spk_0
But that face ball, going over the top of four all black defenders.
spk_0
But also perfectly on his hand as a left-handed player.
spk_0
As a left-handed, yeah.
spk_0
But also, I mean, the key is just talking back to that scram.
spk_0
I think it was...
spk_0
The scram coach, Fords coach said, look, and even Takahara said,
spk_0
it's not going to happen again.
spk_0
What happened to the lost scram?
spk_0
I was like, guys, be careful of what you wish for.
spk_0
Because one guy, Wolkho is a nice, chilled guy,
spk_0
but if you read stuff like that, that is something that will get him going.
spk_0
And it was almost perfect that he came on.
spk_0
And it was a scram like that.
spk_0
I mean, that is world-class.
spk_0
Look out, Jan Hendrik vessels guns underneath.
spk_0
Do you want to show...
spk_0
What I do want to show, how extended Jan Hendrik vessels is there?
spk_0
And does his knee touch the ground?
spk_0
For a brief moment, it does.
spk_0
Yeah, for a nice, yeah.
spk_0
But he keeps going.
spk_0
Next move on.
spk_0
You're just saying...
spk_0
You're just saying...
spk_0
No, you're right.
spk_0
You're just saying...
spk_0
You're just saying...
spk_0
You're just saying...
spk_0
If we want to sum up the current generations...
spk_0
If he's going forward then...
spk_0
It sells the right picture.
spk_0
If you want to show a blueprint of what the box rugby is about,
spk_0
you do that.
spk_0
And that, for me, was the moment.
spk_0
We got our noses in front, 1410.
spk_0
And then the scoreboard pressure started to tell.
spk_0
It was 36 unanswered there.
spk_0
Yeah, in the second half.
spk_0
That was the start of it, but this is where we got the dominance.
spk_0
And I think before I'm going to play it through,
spk_0
we've been speaking about the box getting the balance right.
spk_0
Not just going conservative and not playing at all,
spk_0
but also not just playing and not having that game management in place.
spk_0
And I think this is a great example of that.
spk_0
If we box kick, that's not a negative thing.
spk_0
If you execute it well and you can compete well,
spk_0
then you've got the possibility of getting it back.
spk_0
And from there, you can either take or then kick from there.
spk_0
And that is where I thought we were brilliant.
spk_0
And this is a great example of that.
spk_0
But to your point against Skull,
spk_0
they just couldn't catch anything.
spk_0
No, and you'll see it's not only one.
spk_0
It's other, it goes up against Carter,
spk_0
or it goes up against McKenzie.
spk_0
None of them commanded the aerial battle.
spk_0
Or for the back of this, our intention was amazing.
spk_0
So keep on running, staying on top of the ball.
spk_0
Wait for someone else to make the decision when to kick.
spk_0
Don't slow it down, don't cry through number nine.
spk_0
What is our plan?
spk_0
Are we going to keep on carrying? Yes, we are.
spk_0
Lovely little options.
spk_0
And boom, diamond burns out.
spk_0
Kick and shape.
spk_0
And that for me was one of the biggest differences.
spk_0
We went from, you know, the first test in against Australia
spk_0
where we've lost our DNA completely,
spk_0
didn't kick enough off the back of those things to doing none of it.
spk_0
And the balance this week was the key for me.
spk_0
But also the difference that it makes to have like,
spk_0
diamond at number 10, who's played a lot of life.
spk_0
Yes, he's in full back.
spk_0
He's timing on the kick, on the ball, on the run.
spk_0
On the run.
spk_0
On the run was exceptional.
spk_0
That's the exit.
spk_0
We get the ball.
spk_0
It's 60 meters.
spk_0
60 meters.
spk_0
The all blacks conversely.
spk_0
And again, compared to last week, you know, they couldn't get the upper hand.
spk_0
It's 1710.
spk_0
They have a go.
spk_0
And I think defensively.
spk_0
This was a big mess, though.
spk_0
There was a big mess.
spk_0
And what I want to show you is that, you know,
spk_0
Gron gets it wrong because he's on the wing there.
spk_0
He gets it a little bit wrong.
spk_0
He should have rushed up a bit quicker than he just should have been watching.
spk_0
Yeah, so you'll see him, you get sucked in.
spk_0
So again, the bad brothers kind of pulling the strings,
spk_0
they're getting on our outside, but again, not the ability to finish it off.
spk_0
So you see Grant over there.
spk_0
And he just needed to start a little bit wider.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
So keep your eye on him.
spk_0
And start wider.
spk_0
Stay on a man rather into a space or continue through and not have that check.
spk_0
That's what I really spoke about.
spk_0
Because there we go.
spk_0
See, there's a little bit of a check.
spk_0
That's not a man's lander.
spk_0
If he is there now, then that force is better to get hold onto the ball and take contact
spk_0
or make the pass, which he can intercept.
spk_0
We go as bridge pass.
spk_0
You've got to be in this blind spot tomorrow.
spk_0
spk_0
And then the other guys can kind of, you know,
spk_0
the scramble defense can get there.
spk_0
But what happens now is he checks.
spk_0
And by checking, he finds himself in no man's land.
spk_0
He's defending space rather than the ball or a man and the pass actually beats him.
spk_0
And that's the hard thing about the way we defend.
spk_0
I mean, look, he's paces amazing.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
And like, how he works back in to actually be in a tackling position.
spk_0
Where is that?
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
It's incredible.
spk_0
So he makes a turn around, Scoots back, because he's just behind us.
spk_0
And he's just moved there.
spk_0
So like that's in that period where Quibis went all four years, HRAA, then came back.
spk_0
And he got better at it as the game progressed.
spk_0
But it's the hardest part about being on the wing and not having a dedicated wing defending.
spk_0
And that's not it.
spk_0
What do you need speed there to make up to make up for your men?
spk_0
He's got plenty of time.
spk_0
The all blacks get a penalty.
spk_0
So again, 58 minutes into the game.
spk_0
Now decision making, 58 minutes into the game.
spk_0
That penalty midfield, easy three points.
spk_0
Do you guys three points get a little bit closer 17 to 13?
spk_0
Or do you kick for the line where you had success the previous week?
spk_0
And that has been the tendency of this all black team.
spk_0
But the execution, knowing near perfect.
spk_0
This is a double bank.
spk_0
Yeah, that's it.
spk_0
It's a TT.
spk_0
You can get away with it if you settle with it.
spk_0
Like when you sit and then you squeeze yourself forward.
spk_0
But you can't take up that space.
spk_0
So far beyond.
spk_0
And for the referee, that's the first trigger.
spk_0
It's unfortunately, you can't get yourself in there.
spk_0
Even if you take up that space, but you low and you're pointing square forward,
spk_0
you're quite hard to pick up.
spk_0
But you can't turn your shoulder, you can't double bank.
spk_0
I think the thing with this test match, John, was the first test match,
spk_0
the Olympics needed to win.
spk_0
Is there anything that made it?
spk_0
A record, yeah.
spk_0
This weekend, they went up to the mindset where they wanted to play rugby.
spk_0
And that's the decision that's made on the back of what the mindset was in the week.
spk_0
And unfortunately for them, I think this week, the box mentality of doing what's necessary.
spk_0
Because that was as last week.
spk_0
But it's a sculler, even that it's an unnecessary penalty.
spk_0
You can get away maybe in the first test when the referee is not aware of it.
spk_0
They would have said video clips and guys, listen to the mollings illegal,
spk_0
have a look here, whatever it is.
spk_0
John, even if they had molled and scored that, the team work would still go back.
spk_0
And say, listen to that, it's double banking.
spk_0
So it's a silly one to do because you're actually not going to get away with it.
spk_0
If you've got a good ref and a good team are watching from the top.
spk_0
So after that, we get the line out.
spk_0
And again, our exit being able to put us in a position to attack.
spk_0
And there's even, again, guys, we said it earlier that they didn't make the decisions and changes.
spk_0
I mean, the previous one was legal record, this one is Jody Barrett.
spk_0
They did try.
spk_0
It's a combination.
spk_0
The kicker has to be good first of all.
spk_0
But why is Barrett, I mean, surely he's got to go up in the air.
spk_0
He's almost waiting for hookup from 20 years out, whatever to get up.
spk_0
You need them on the jump.
spk_0
So you'll always take the space.
spk_0
And this was a midfield rack.
spk_0
You know, like this was offered the fence of line out.
spk_0
Jasper Visa carries it miles over the game.
spk_0
And that's another thing.
spk_0
Like last week, we were getting counter-racked kicking non-another terms this week.
spk_0
Everything moved forward for us.
spk_0
So your nose accuracy, when you're moving forward,
spk_0
when that rack is not 15 seconds or 25 seconds slow, when it's a 3 second rack and you kick it.
spk_0
So hard as a defensive side to line yourself up.
spk_0
Yeah, they made a plan with Jody Barrett in the back.
spk_0
He's nowhere to contest that ball.
spk_0
And then off the back of this, this is our, I think we were so impressed.
spk_0
Let's go.
spk_0
Nice, the linking between forwards and backs.
spk_0
Okay, not perfect.
spk_0
But the intent being there.
spk_0
And now once we...
spk_0
spk_0
The J.S.U.s.
spk_0
Gives us.
spk_0
Guys, this is 80 meter X.
spk_0
Yeah, it had to be...
spk_0
Yeah, it had to be on R22.
spk_0
And this was where, you know, when they say the all blacks gave up, they didn't give up.
spk_0
They would just absolutely pulverize through the ball being other above their heads or behind them.
spk_0
You know, as a pack of forwards, you've just had a line out.
spk_0
You've just got into the vacuum.
spk_0
You know, they made a big hit there.
spk_0
Next moment, you've got to run to your five meter.
spk_0
And then everyone goes, look at this line up.
spk_0
Why they lose it?
spk_0
It's because you running back, the referee is chasing you to get into the line.
spk_0
There's a miss happen, the call.
spk_0
You're blowing skill executions.
spk_0
The first thing that goes wrong.
spk_0
And the box, we run towards the line up.
spk_0
We go, okay, this is ours.
spk_0
Now you get energy from the fact that you're making decisions.
spk_0
You're paying for the whole time.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
And even though those, the contestable was you get that back.
spk_0
You realize there's an opportunity.
spk_0
You get it to your shape.
spk_0
Let's go again, you know.
spk_0
So you all is the light to all is on the whole time.
spk_0
Okay, guys, that's 60 minutes into the game.
spk_0
We're going to have a quick break again.
spk_0
Then we go into the last 20, which was by far the best part of the game.
spk_0
And the box just went into overdrive.
spk_0
Okay, guys, before the break, we showed 60, 80 meter exit fires.
spk_0
Then after that, New Zealand gets this line up.
spk_0
We steal it.
spk_0
And from here, we just never look back.
spk_0
Ron Okia Takabah.
spk_0
He was so patient, waited for the movement and went up at the right time.
spk_0
Because that's the hook, I think that movement is going to, the bite.
spk_0
Then the second or third movement is the one with the throws open.
spk_0
He did exception.
spk_0
And also that 80 meter exit.
spk_0
It's so hard to run back and then get the call right.
spk_0
Give it to me, he says.
spk_0
Daimind Valyksa.
spk_0
Boom.
spk_0
I mean, that sums up the aggression we had this weekend.
spk_0
You know, often when you play the whole black,
spk_0
you see all these black jerseys in front of you.
spk_0
But you don't actually pick a week to find or run at them and ask them to make it, Takabah.
spk_0
I thought we went out the back to early there.
spk_0
I thought we should be patient.
spk_0
And that's what I thought to mention.
spk_0
And again, bad pass, you know, he kind of had to check.
spk_0
So he's got no momentum.
spk_0
But to your point, earlier, Skolke, it's just so good with defences on top of him.
spk_0
You know, there, but it, but getting the gap, so strong, strong leg drive, get over.
spk_0
What's the same run?
spk_0
Run to Skolke.
spk_0
I mean, you have to set up another right.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
Good tackle fight.
spk_0
I mean, so often you can get stuck in your system and it was a bad call or bad decision.
spk_0
I think he's happy.
spk_0
One good carry.
spk_0
You know, that changes the whole thing.
spk_0
Then the kickoff and again, where, you know, we just had such good control.
spk_0
Jasper, we said every single time was able to run it up.
spk_0
Look how controlled we are.
spk_0
You know, now Skolke would pressure.
spk_0
You spoke about earlier, Skolke would pressure is there.
spk_0
And you just, you see that spiral coming.
spk_0
Not a great kick, but contesting the scraps we were winning the scraps.
spk_0
And look, look again, we ended up.
spk_0
Guys, check the gain line.
spk_0
This is going to drive you.
spk_0
Just check the gain line all the time.
spk_0
Every single time box going forward.
spk_0
You have a better go.
spk_0
What an option.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
What's that?
spk_0
60 meters again.
spk_0
Every single time.
spk_0
Skolke would sticking you at home.
spk_0
The crowd wants something.
spk_0
They can't believe what's happening.
spk_0
No, you got a force on either of those issues.
spk_0
Look where they're playing from.
spk_0
Yeah, and again, and bad luck.
spk_0
Bad luck.
spk_0
You know, great kick, great option.
spk_0
But here, when it's like this, everything is in cash.
spk_0
Catches the ditch stream at Wilmington.
spk_0
That wind in that stadium is something else.
spk_0
You can't see it obviously here.
spk_0
You think, you know, you come in the stadium and you cover that.
spk_0
You cannot predict that wind.
spk_0
That is the wind just taking that ball over the street down.
spk_0
But you know, different day.
spk_0
Bounce it up.
spk_0
Different outcome.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
It's just, yeah.
spk_0
It's just one of those.
spk_0
That's right.
spk_0
You know, it rains at pause.
spk_0
Then your line up starts going backwards.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
Scrum was dominant.
spk_0
I mean, guess the reason.
spk_0
I'll give it to me.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
I'll show you where it's going.
spk_0
It's going under my jumper.
spk_0
And we're going forward.
spk_0
You was incredible.
spk_0
But, Skalk, again, 14 points up.
spk_0
Not, you know, sticking to the structure.
spk_0
It has worked.
spk_0
It's not conservative to do this.
spk_0
It has worked.
spk_0
You put pressure on them.
spk_0
They get, they catch the ball this time around.
spk_0
But it's just that flood of green.
spk_0
Or three or two.
spk_0
Or two white traffic.
spk_0
You try to pop it back.
spk_0
You under pressure the glass on.
spk_0
You transfer, you, if you shove it into the next guy,
spk_0
he's going to get smashed.
spk_0
And that's, that's where I think mentally they were fried at this point.
spk_0
Trying to chase again.
spk_0
But also for us, lessons learned from last time we played Tony Ball
spk_0
up at High Felt.
spk_0
First seven contestables.
spk_0
South Africa with dominant.
spk_0
All of a sudden, we stopped it.
spk_0
This game, we asked you to catch a contestable.
spk_0
If you're not catching it, we're playing off the back of it.
spk_0
But also then, in motion, pull the trigger under boot.
spk_0
And Skram also grew another leg.
spk_0
Even though Wilco seems a bit tired there.
spk_0
Nice thought to play.
spk_0
Estraise is solid.
spk_0
And it's almost just too easy this, this try.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
Again, I mean, like, you think, I mean, I don't think, like,
spk_0
I kind of had to pop that out the back, you know,
spk_0
like he's, he's well over the game line.
spk_0
But this is the picture you want to see.
spk_0
This is the all-black's play from the own 22.
spk_0
And again, you get to that feeling where people say they gave up.
spk_0
They were gassed, you know, this doesn't happen again.
spk_0
I mean, it's a great one.
spk_0
What a love this show.
spk_0
What an option by Ethan Uka.
spk_0
He was exceptional.
spk_0
But take, take, take, go next to him.
spk_0
Ruan Okia.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
Ruan Okia.
spk_0
Each guy there does what he needs to do in the moment.
spk_0
Mane.
spk_0
What is looking for the option?
spk_0
Clean from Mane.
spk_0
Missed it a little bit.
spk_0
Archia.
spk_0
Strong.
spk_0
Clean.
spk_0
Guys, look at, look at, again, on the advantage line.
spk_0
Look at the faces, hands on hips, hands on knees.
spk_0
You know, like, we're putting them under so, so much pressure.
spk_0
Also, because they're more scattered, there's no line speed.
spk_0
Zero line.
spk_0
No, you're just absorbing the whole time.
spk_0
One little ball classic.
spk_0
Yeah, right.
spk_0
But the fact that, the ball's that so beautiful.
spk_0
And the fact that we, that we take it out the back.
spk_0
So it's a, it's a pass to the forward, to a forward.
spk_0
With the options to place one of the forwards next to him.
spk_0
But also the option to play out the back.
spk_0
What that creates is this guy needs to come up.
spk_0
He can't stay back here.
spk_0
You know, if it was just straight to Mane and Mane cross kicks.
spk_0
He stays here.
spk_0
He's got the ability to go up and contest.
spk_0
But the fact that they go out the back, the line is solid.
spk_0
He needs to close out, yeah.
spk_0
They're in tower, all black sides in that picture.
spk_0
And Pilar's left to toy.
spk_0
Keeping the width.
spk_0
Boom.
spk_0
Quacha, smak.
spk_0
Super sub, quacha.
spk_0
You want the feeling that this guy, this game is going to suit him.
spk_0
You can just see, because it was, it was quite high paced.
spk_0
Quite a lot of opportunities.
spk_0
There's quite a few scraps there.
spk_0
But in your mentioned at the whole time, all these tries come,
spk_0
came from us, executing our shape for the box.
spk_0
Getting it back, looking with their spaces, looking with their kicker on.
spk_0
So we're on the front foot the whole time.
spk_0
The ball time.
spk_0
We saw numbers on jerseys.
spk_0
I mean, this carry the, you know, like, good option.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
Back yourself.
spk_0
And like, so often when you get the ball, you're leading a game.
spk_0
You just kick it, I hack it out, five meters, and they get all the momentum.
spk_0
I swam off to the game.
spk_0
He said he was tired.
spk_0
I can imagine.
spk_0
He was, I was, there's a lot of running.
spk_0
You know, as a wing, you need to cover a lot of ground.
spk_0
And that's why it is so well covering the ground there.
spk_0
And then, and then having the, the, I mean, the, the wall to also counter death.
spk_0
There's called a second effort.
spk_0
Repeat effort, John.
spk_0
Stick to your guns.
spk_0
Contestable kick.
spk_0
No one hardly competing.
spk_0
Kain and free run.
spk_0
Don't pass it.
spk_0
One carry.
spk_0
Look at that.
spk_0
This game line for free, you know, I think for the all-blackss, this is like a nightmare.
spk_0
It's recurring itself.
spk_0
What a line.
spk_0
The Viking.
spk_0
The Viking.
spk_0
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
And you don't have to, but also fast because you're getting gain line.
spk_0
You, as the fans, you don't, you can't make a proper read.
spk_0
And like, you feel sorry for their bench that came on because everything you went perjure for them.
spk_0
But they were absolutely, you've, we've been on the bench where game changes and you sort of chasing shadows.
spk_0
That's what they were doing.
spk_0
Holland gets out.
spk_0
He doesn't quite have the connection from the outside, the past beats him.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
It's at the right.
spk_0
He will.
spk_0
On his outside.
spk_0
And like, what a athlete there.
spk_0
Okay.
spk_0
No, it was so many when he came on.
spk_0
No, we need the all-fledged work.
spk_0
Well, everything, you sort of, when you get to bully think, there's just someone just run off a shoulder because there's an all-fledged coming.
spk_0
We're in a position like this is so easy to defensively also, let it try, you know, whatever.
spk_0
But that's what I really liked about the box.
spk_0
They just said they're not conceding.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
And also the fact that you need to score three tries more than the opposition.
spk_0
You know, you can't concede try.
spk_0
And that's what I liked about this.
spk_0
Look where Grant Williams is there.
spk_0
There he is.
spk_0
Stop in the past.
spk_0
But there he goes.
spk_0
There he goes.
spk_0
Not sorry.
spk_0
And boom.
spk_0
I mean, that's because he doesn't do that.
spk_0
That's a try.
spk_0
It's well worked by the all black star.
spk_0
They compressed our defense.
spk_0
I'll quick the ball was and then the lovely subtlety out the back.
spk_0
Damon Volumso can't defend the second-last man.
spk_0
But then how quick is Grant Williams?
spk_0
Yeah, nice.
spk_0
He's next to the ruckian.
spk_0
He's making a tackle on, on Will Jordan.
spk_0
But I like that.
spk_0
You know, again, the intent from the box to say attacking you we've been good.
spk_0
But also defensively we're not giving in.
spk_0
And the attitude of the commissive.
spk_0
And we won two games ago.
spk_0
That wouldn't have been it.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
Yeah, we didn't have that same energy and work rate that we accustomed to.
spk_0
And then to finish it all off the last try scored.
spk_0
He ends up looking fun of him.
spk_0
Everybody who touches the ball, yeah, perfect options.
spk_0
Have a go to my, uh, uh, to my two Williams.
spk_0
Grant Williams.
spk_0
So at ease on the way.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
And no one's stopping the flanker there.
spk_0
No one was going to stop him there.
spk_0
But again, Damon Volumso, so a big arm front of him.
spk_0
And we take him on the outside, turn one easy then connecting off to that.
spk_0
But a lot of stuff came from what we did within our structure.
spk_0
The chaos came and we just knew how to read it pretty well.
spk_0
I thought Kovas Rhinach actually opened his eye there.
spk_0
When he jumped on the celebration.
spk_0
I don't know if we see that.
spk_0
I'm the reverse angle you can see is actually bleeding before.
spk_0
But just look at the whole blacksmithing around.
spk_0
They're absolutely been pulverized by this game.
spk_0
And it's not a giving up thing like some of them said it's just, you know, they got outplayed.
spk_0
And the ball was in the on the spring box terms the entire game.
spk_0
And this is like perfect as red book.
spk_0
A book right we can get you can see him.
spk_0
You'll see a little blood on his on his hour.
spk_0
Well, there's a bit there, but I'll check Kovas Rhinach.
spk_0
Framey for.
spk_0
These are actually pretty happy as well.
spk_0
She's the deserved.
spk_0
It's incredible.
spk_0
And we should actually do your box, your compilation from last week where there was some different
spk_0
words said to this week, you know, that was ecstatic.
spk_0
But like it just shows how much it means to this group.
spk_0
I mean, it was the most pleasurable watch.
spk_0
The box were absolutely.
spk_0
I'm so lucky.
spk_0
Oh, we buy moment of the week.
spk_0
Well, Skull, Skull, last week says the player to watch was Damien Valumse.
spk_0
So he definitely got that.
spk_0
No, completely.
spk_0
But who, the we buy moment of the week this week?
spk_0
I think we can't go past Cheslin's set of set as a momentum shift.
spk_0
To pinpoint.
spk_0
And then the first.
spk_0
He's second try.
spk_0
The second, the second try, the scrum.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
And the CR break and the Cheslin's second try.
spk_0
It's just nice combination of all the things we did well.
spk_0
Okay, guys, let's do the quick verdict.
spk_0
What is our verdict on this game?
spk_0
For me, perfection.
spk_0
I mean, I don't think if you can go 10, but I'll give it a 10.
spk_0
New Zealand away from home, bigger school ever, ever, ever against all blacks.
spk_0
Ever.
spk_0
Let's substitute the 10.
spk_0
Yeah, let's think about it.
spk_0
In 100 plus years of New Zealand rugby, they've never been beaten by this.
spk_0
We scored six tries.
spk_0
Okay, we scored eight, almost.
spk_0
Yeah, we crossed the whitewash eight times.
spk_0
I mean, it was.
spk_0
If we were to let people say we must have been line out to the five meter.
spk_0
First, we did this for the start.
spk_0
We did this for the start.
spk_0
We lost the first line out.
spk_0
You go in the half-time training.
spk_0
You think, okay, maybe this is, you know, we're watching a horror movie.
spk_0
But if you go through the whole game and you sit and you watch it,
spk_0
our plan was perfect.
spk_0
And we're absolutely dominated.
spk_0
And guys, we got 10 out of 10 for the box.
spk_0
Yeah, great.
spk_0
Our predictions, our big-wave predictions last week.
spk_0
But I need a cool flickie, often.
spk_0
Flickie with a break.
spk_0
You win for all black.
spk_0
spk_0
Opened by 10, I think.
spk_0
No.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
All blacks between one and seven.
spk_0
You.
spk_0
Flickie.
spk_0
Flickie, I'll be off your way.
spk_0
That's what I said.
spk_0
You're a cool mafia.
spk_0
You're a sanity.
spk_0
But none of us got a drive.
spk_0
You know, who would have imagined that the box would lie?
spk_0
I was the most aggressive for the box.
spk_0
I said the box by a 7-14.
spk_0
spk_0
I went box-14.
spk_0
But John, also, you got to look at, I mean, I think about it,
spk_0
why we rotate and all that.
spk_0
If you look at the world, the schedule for the next end of year turn now,
spk_0
you actually need two squads.
spk_0
From a squat perspective, I mean, you look at them,
spk_0
I mean, Damon, D'Alan, and JC Kru…
spk_0
That's all got a lot to play.
spk_0
Everyone goes to say, young squad, well, this is not.
spk_0
It isn't.
spk_0
It's the squat, the 45.
spk_0
I think is incredibly powerful, Skyland.
spk_0
You know, we still got France.
spk_0
Not one flower for us going to play against France,
spk_0
Ireland, what we've got into the Japan.
spk_0
So you actually need what you're doing now.
spk_0
We've actually a step, I think we're a step ahead.
spk_0
If you look at the gap in terms of that, in World Drag B,
spk_0
I can't think of a better squad.
spk_0
If New Zealand ever barred, it goes down.
spk_0
McKenzie comes in.
spk_0
Who's there to the flower?
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
They've got to go fetch manga.
spk_0
Yeah, no one can…
spk_0
Tell you, there's a couple of lot of tips as well as France.
spk_0
Yeah, they do.
spk_0
Okay guys, quick word on the Wallabies Pumus game.
spk_0
Pumus out for the tournament.
spk_0
Argentina on to walk over.
spk_0
Not at all.
spk_0
Dangerous.
spk_0
They're in Chocobarras.
spk_0
So the way we can defend, or we have been defending up until this weekend,
spk_0
they tackle Kamala against them.
spk_0
Yeah, Chocobarras, Senti.
spk_0
Yeah, Malia.
spk_0
Or Viennath, the eighth man.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
That'll be good.
spk_0
They're not a walk-in.
spk_0
The next episode of Boxing Packed, you can watch next week Friday,
spk_0
before the game South Africa versus Argentina,
spk_0
who go into a little bit more depth on the Pumus.
spk_0
And also don't remember Coca-Cola, such a proud partner.
spk_0
Go get those cans, scan it, send it in, and you marches to experience a box experience.
spk_0
As well.
spk_0
And lastly, guys, unfortunately, the Spimock ladies went down against New Zealand.
spk_0
The fight.
spk_0
What a fight.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
And before I knew, we said, if they lose by less than 30,
spk_0
that should actually be seen as success, considering where they've been.
spk_0
Yeah, the training up, like the jump is out of the box.
spk_0
And you can get ducked.
spk_0
You can lose 20 or 26 or 30, but scoring 17 points against them.
spk_0
15 man more.
spk_0
For me, yeah.
spk_0
For me, that is, I mean, I love the fact in the way they've played,
spk_0
and congratulations, they're swicing these goals.
spk_0
They've got a long way to go, but like this is definitely a massive step
spk_0
in the right direction for our women's rugby.
spk_0
Yeah, I think there's going to be a big advancement in women's rugby,
spk_0
in terms of having more professional teams.
spk_0
I don't know what the structure will be, but if you compare this with one professional team,
spk_0
that we can make a World Cup quarter and be 10 all at half time,
spk_0
yeah.
spk_0
Go four years time.
spk_0
Watch this team.
spk_0
Watch the space.
spk_0
I think we'll go for it.
spk_0
Watch the space.
spk_0
Great to see.
spk_0
Okay, guys, that's all we've got.
spk_0
A 10 out of 10.
spk_0
10 out of 10.
spk_0
Yeah.
spk_0
And Shimi, great to have you back.
spk_0
Good to be back.
spk_0
Who was that guy?
spk_0
There's a 4-year-old in town with about a 10 out of 10 performance by the box.
spk_0
Shimi is back.
spk_0
The box are back.
spk_0
