What is the opening banter and who are the hosts in Johannesburg?
Welcome to the DSPM.
Oh, there you go. He was forward.
The Devlin Sports Podcast Network. Jamie Wall in Johannesburg thanks to HBO Max where it's all killer and no filler. And we have Alex Lowe from The Times down from London. I would say welcome, but it's actually welcome back, 'cause you were here just six weeks ago, weren't you? I
was, yeah, six weeks ago, came in for England's nations championship test. Uh I'm back here and I've only just arrived this morning straight in for the team announcements and I I guess if there's a fine for arriving late on tour, Jamie, then I've probably got it coming my way later.
That can be that can be arranged. That can be arranged. Uh but let's talk about those team announcements. We're at Dave Rennie's press conference earlier. We're obviously at the Springbox Hotel where we've just talked with Russi Erasmus. We'll we'll start with the All Blacks, shall we? Yep. Um I thought Dave Rennie made a pretty interesting quote here. We're just gonna play it for you. Just around the dramatic sort of talk about the All Blacks discipline and things that have popped up on social media. Let's just hear what he had to say about that. How m has the oblex discipline uh developed during this tour? What have you learned?
Yeah. Oh look, I think uh I think Felix was Pointing out a handful of things around. You know, with clawing a leg. We we did that once, we got penalised. We threw a guy across the line out, once got penalised.
How does Dave Rennie respond to criticism about All Blacks discipline?
Uh we were pulling back at the back of a mall. got penalised and somebins. So we'll go with Lent and Uh discipline was much better. on the weekend and uh we know that's gonna be important against the Spring Box.
Dad, what's it gonna take for the Zorblex
team to beat the spring box
on
Saturday afternoon? Um well I think I think belief is a massive part of it. It's It's you know, you're going to to Alice Park to play the Springbox, it's it's almost the Omeka and Um but we're we' look we're really excited by the challenge and Um being here for three weeks w with a good prep. Um yeah, so we're um we we know we're gonna have to be at our best. Uh, we know we're gonna have to be disciplined so we don't give them easy entry into our twenty two and Um we have to be really accurate. They've um yeah, like they got an excellent team, haven't they? And Um certainly we expect a lot of aerial attack and I think if we can defuse that, that'll that'll give us some opportunity to attack.
But often games like this can be decided by penalty goals. I think you've only had one, maybe two attempts at penalty goal this year. Are you prepared for the team to go to that sort of um you know? Oh yeah.
Yeah, I look at um there'll be times when it's an arm wrestle and so Um Yeah, look what y you have to dig in. Um we we wanna play when it's on the play, we'll we need to bar up for a big chunk of it, it's test footy and Uh, we know the spring box will ask a lot of us.
Okay, so Rennie they're highlighting a few areas uh where they were penalised in the MOE games and then just sort of reminding everyone they actually haven't been penalised for that sort of stuff since. What did you think of that?
Well it's I guess it's the late today was the latest round of of the tit for tat between between the coaches that trying to set an agenda, trying to drive a narrative and and this was Rennie responding to what the Springbox had picked up and and those those incidents he he uh he referred to. I guess it's this was his opportunity to go listen, we're not we're not dirty, we're we're w yes, we've been penalised for these things, but we haven't repeated
What are the Springboks’ key tactical priorities for the first test?
It one penalty in each of those situations. Obviously, he was asked about the the the suggestion that that they're going in with a shoulder and You know, he I think you asked him about the discipline on on tour. And you know, he was very I think one of the the the most strident points he made was, listen, we we've learned from the mistakes that we've made on this trip and don't you know again another message to the referees and the officials, you know, we've we've been clean, we've made a mistake, we've been penalised for it and we haven't repeated it and a very deliberate message in the the latest installment I guess in this in this tit for tat we've had between the coaches.
