doing maths class.

All of a sudden I just have this picture of trying to teach a baboon to play tennis.

What is that, you doing calculus?

Integrated equations?

Just chat GTP, that one.

Well, we have some mathematics involved here.

34 names and the split, obviously, is it 18-16?

Is it 19-15?

I mean, do you go 17-17?

We're going to kick it off.

A guy called Rob Farrow emailed us a couple of days ago with his 34.

I'm going to quickly run those down and you're going to see them on the screen.

And then we're going to pick our own 34.

He had...

De Groot, Norris, Numia, Lomax, Newell, Tossie as the props, Taylor, Tokeahau, and Omua as his hookers.

He had four locks, Vahie, Lord, Tuipalutu, Sam Darry, six Lucies, Salvia, Jacobson, Satiti, Lakai, Parker, Finau.

He had three halfbacks, Roy Gard, Hotham, and Ratema.

He had two first fives in Love and Barrett, but he added in McKenzie at fullback, so don't worry about that.

Jay Barrett and Q Tupai as his second fives.

He had Bea Proctor and Lester at centres.
