What are the highlights of the Warriors vs. Cowboys preview?

José Trajano 0:01
Good morning, James McHoney.
James McOnie 0:31
Morning from Ototahi. I'm in Christchurch, mate. What's going on?

How did Zippy save New Zealand in the cricket match?

James McOnie 0:38
Well, not much. I went to McDonald's last night to try and get a World Cup cup. I got the Thierry Henry.

What are the implications of Steve Corica leaving AFC?

James McOnie 0:48
It's still good.
You happy with that? I'd be happy with Thierry Henry.
James McOnie 0:51
Yep. I went to Waihoro Rugby Club, a country club over by the hills, Port Hills.

What should we expect from the Super Rugby Grand Final?

James McOnie 0:58
Maybe not the Port Hills, just some hills on the way over to Akaroa. And the mums were in there making pasta for the boys for Thursday night training.
How good. How good. And obviously the Warriors this Sunday down in Christchurch, is it starting to ramp up?
James McOnie 1:18
Well, I haven't actually been in town, but yes. I'm going to a lunch today for the Waz. Yeah. And pretty much there's going to be a galaxy of stars. We've got Kevi Walters, Gordon Tallis, Sean Johnson, Michael Lux going to be on stage, Simon Manoring.
Oh, can you get like Gordon Tallis to run it straight at one of them?
James McOnie 1:40
Yeah, we'll try and get him to ragdoll somebody, you know, that Brett Hodgson tackle.
I'll never forget, Gordon Tellis, for some reason, I got involved in a Bledisloe Cup match in Eden Park.

What feedback did listeners provide in 'Yours Please' segment?

This would have been maybe 12 years ago. And for some reason, he was a tour guide for the Australian Rugby Union Tour Group. And he turned up and he had, I didn't get in an argument with him, but it got quite spicy in the pub beforehand because he gets quite fired up. And because I was helping direct them in the bus, I was the Kiwi contingent of this tour. And we all arrived at Eden Park and all the Australians sat down and they kind of blew up balloons and waved them around, yellow balloons.

How did the Chiefs and Hurricanes prepare for the final?

It was so lame. And it was so lame that Gordon Tallis got up because they were getting booed by everyone and he got up in his Australian shirt, tore his Australian shirt off and he had an all-black jersey underneath and he got an absolute hero's welcome. It was one of the greats.
James McOnie 2:33
That's pretty good from him. Yeah. There's a lot of rugby fans amongst those league boys. Matty John seems to watch every test match, every game, you know?
Yeah. Also, for those of you who watch on Apple or iHeart, we have installed the Wilson cam. for Joe Jury because people are getting sick of hearing his voice and not being able to see his face.

What challenges do the Chiefs face going into the final?

But people don't know that he's got so many screens in front of him, all we can see is his usually shitty old hat and his headphones. So we've installed a micro camera so you can now see when Wilson's talking.
James McOnie 3:06
Yeah, there we go.
Okay, great. Yeah, there we go.
James McOnie 3:08
I can see you then.
Let's kick this in the guts. Live from the Export Beer Garden studio, this is The Agenda for Friday the 19th of June.
Mike Lane 3:16
The Agenda Podcast, the home of sporting nonsense and claptrap. Brought to you by Export Ultra.
We'll high-five you on the way in, James, because obviously you are hosting this Warriors lunch and then Manaira and myself are coming down to host the Warriors pre-game on Sunday at the Richmond Club. So we can tag in and out. Still plenty of room available at the Richmond Club if you want to come and join us from midday. We've got Ruben Wiki and Mark Tukey and Fetu Taiwa joining us.
James McOnie 3:45
Fethi Taiwa, how good.

What were the key moments discussed in the 'Yours Please' segment?

James McOnie 3:47
He was in the original Waz team, 1995. He was on the wing.
Yeah, original run-on player. Yeah, so that's going to be interesting. We've got drink specials and a free coach to the ground as well. So see you there from midday. Did you catch much of the cricket? James Zippy has saved the day.
James McOnie 4:02
Yeah, Zippy. It's so good to see him score a ton. It's kind of weird. not so much a lull, but just a sort of calm after the storm or whatever you want to call it, with Kane retiring and Ben Stokes being out. It just feels strange.
Yeah, it's an odd English team. Their wicketkeeper's potentially the worst keeper in the world. Not only does he look like mashy, but he almost broke the record for the most amount of buys in a test match. I think behinds were up almost got a half century. But saying that, he did have to keep Joffrey Archer, who was sending down some hate on poor Glenn Phillips. He was ducking and diving just to save his life.
