H
37:31Harry JonesHOST

Just, I think we have to wrap this up, but in closing, Ben O'Keeffe blew the game against, uh, Argentina versus Australia, and I didn't watch it, but from what I've gathered, people making the comments in our, on our channel, it was rugby as usual, scrums as usual, no?

20:27Lachie GreyHOST
Instead, that one looking for a milking penalty from Ryan Lonergan, passing it into the body of a Pumas player at the back of that maul.
L
20:35Lachie GreyHOST
There's been a double blow here from Ben O'Keeffe, and they might be giving them a warning, Fergo.
J
20:42John FergusonGUEST
Yeah, I'm not actually listening to the call.
J
20:44John FergusonGUEST
I will listen to it in the second half.
J

L
20:52Lachie GreyHOST
Yeah, absolutely, Fergo.
L

This one's, uh, sounds like an official warning from Ben O'Keeffe to Pablo Matera.
L
20:57Lachie GreyHOST
Too many penalties in this part of the field.

The Boks' Weapon Rennie's All Blacks Haven’t Fully Faced
J
26:12James ParsonsHOST
And then in the game, you know, if he's not, you know, questioning enough, the message can come out, but I think it's more of a chat to a line out.
J
26:20James ParsonsHOST
Like, "Hey," you know, say it's Ben O'Keeffe.
J
26:22James ParsonsHOST
"Hey, Ben, you know, we spoke about the slowing down.

S
35:04Sean MaloneyHOST
Oh, God
S
35:59Sean MaloneyHOST

S
36:00Sean MaloneyHOST
But you know what I mean.
M
36:00Morgan TurinuiHOST
But I, I just wanted to make a point, like the way a r- like O'Keeffe for example, if you wanna steal the ball against with Ben O'Keeffe as your ref, you've gotta lift, you've gotta put pressure on, you gotta have clear release.
M
36:08Morgan TurinuiHOST
Like, it's gonna be very different each referee.
