Martin DevlinHOST
Uh, your thoughts on that, Mark? And who, so who comes in and then replaces Mo'unga off the bench for covering that left wing and perhaps full back role?
Mark WatsonPANELIST
Well, I'm an Emoni Narawa fan, um, so I'd like to see Emoni Narawa, um, come in and start.
Mark WatsonPANELIST
I'd like to s- give him a real good opportunity.
Mark WatsonPANELIST
Um, I think, you know, it's funny, isn't it? Wallace Hatati didn't start the year particularly well.
Mark WatsonPANELIST
Um, and I, I remember there was quite harsh, you know, um, Dave Rennie was pretty brutal in that press conference after I think the first test where he said, "Look, we just need more out of him," and he'd come off that heavy concussion.
Mark WatsonPANELIST
And I think what we saw on the weekend is, uh, is what Wallace Hatati's capable of.
Mark WatsonPANELIST
And I think there's a lot around that, that with Emoni Narawa.
Mark WatsonPANELIST
Give this guy an opportunity in a game situation.
Manaia StewartHOST
Let's chuck one of those in.
Manaia StewartHOST
Um, also, uh, big guests as well, Ethan Blackadder and Emoni Narawa from the All Blacks squad-
Jeremy WellsHOST
Ooh
Manaia StewartHOST
... are coming in.
25 MINS LATER
Manaia StewartHOST
[upbeat music]
speaker_0NARRATOR
Coming up on the Hauraki Breakfast.
Jeremy WellsHOST
We've got All Blacks' Ethan Blackadder, uh, and Emoni Narawa on the show, and we've got a double pass to the Bledisloe Cup game in Auckland to give away.
Manaia StewartHOST
Yes, be interested to see how they're feeling going into this game this weekend.
Nathan RarereCORRESPONDENT
So by the time we come back here to Morning Report on Monday, I should have the result for you there.
Nathan RarereCORRESPONDENT
And just quickly, in case, uh, I think we've heard the news there before, but Emoni Narawa has been called into the All Blacks as well.
Nathan RarereCORRESPONDENT
So that, that pretty much signals that Richie Mo'unga will not be available for the first or second week.
Nathan RarereCORRESPONDENT
It means that Damian McKenzie, who's playing first five tomorrow night, will stay up there because Emoni is there.
speaker_3HOST
Two All Blacks ready to line up Eden Park this Saturday.
speaker_3HOST
That's right, Ethan Blackadder, Emoni Narawa.
speaker_3HOST
The Bledisloe Cup is on the line.
speaker_3HOST
The stage is set-
James ParsonsHOST
Yeah.
James ParsonsHOST
I, I also think Emoni Narawa comes into that equation as well.
James ParsonsHOST
If you look at the squad, I think they'll add two more for the end of year tour, maybe take it to 36, and then you, you, you sort of look at that forward balance.
James ParsonsHOST
I can't see them add, needing to add another forward.
SurlyPANELIST
Tough, yeah.
SurlyPANELIST
Part of me wants to say Harbour 1-12, but what, Fiji and Ammonia in there for Bay of Plenty too.
SurlyPANELIST
That one's in the Bay, so that should be a tight game.
speaker_3UNKNOWN
Oi.
Johnny BladesHOST
Noah Hotham and Timothy Tevata-Nawai are free to play for the Tasman Marco.
Johnny BladesHOST
Siale Lawakai for Wellington, and Emoni Narawa and Fahifene Ngaknafo can play for Bay of Plenty.
Johnny BladesHOST
That's a Bulletin of News and Sport from RNZ Pacific.
Grant NisbettGUEST
Comes back as halfback and equally Bay of Plenty getting some quality players back.
Grant NisbettGUEST
Narawa, Tossie and Finianga Nofo.
Grant NisbettGUEST
Boy, I find this really, really close.
Grant NisbettGUEST
I think probably Tasman, even though they've been disappointing this year, I think with those guys back and the home advantage, I think I'd be on them.
Tony JohnsonHOST
What is interesting, I think Bay of Plenty are going to get a couple of their guys back.
Tony JohnsonHOST
Pasile Otosi, Emoni Narawa.
Tony JohnsonHOST
I think there's a couple of names that...
Tony JohnsonHOST
Leroy Carter, potentially? I don't know about Carter.
LashHOST
So Tomosi Tavatava-Narwai and Noah Hotham will return for Tasman.
LashHOST
Bay of Plenty, the big winners, Pasaleo Tosi, Finian Anofo and Narawa will return for them.
LashHOST
So a late push into the playoffs for Bay of Plenty potentially.
LashHOST
Simon Parker for Northland, Jamie Hanna for Canterbury, Samisi Tupou-Tailoa for Southland, Josh Lord for the Naki and Cortez Ratema for the strong arm.
8 MINS LATER
LashHOST
Where is it here? Of the released players, who would you most want to watch? For me, it's the Southlander, Up The Guts, Tupou Taya Loa, also Kateri entry from Matt, Waz fans, Violent and Uncouth.
LashHOST
We'll get to the Kateri a little bit later on this hour, but...
LashHOST
For me, going first, I think it's a massive opportunity for either Narawa or Finian and Ofo.
LashHOST
I think Morby and Leroy Carter did some good stuff.
