J
4:48Jordie BarrettGUEST
I think Tana Umaga, one of our coaches, uh, he come and spoke to us the week before we played, and I think the hardest thing about it is once you give it up, it's tough to win back.

J
4:59Jordie BarrettGUEST
You, you gotta win both of them.
Episode 220: Have the All Blacks Recovered From Losing 3 in a Row to The Springboks? | Martin Devlin
M
5:25Martin DevlinGUEST
We were asking all of these questions, and I wanna get onto this as well, um, because I think they're very valid questions.
M
5:30Martin DevlinGUEST
And the fact that Tana Umaga gave the team a spray during the week, uh, was significant to me.
M
5:35Martin DevlinGUEST
Because as a coach, and as a guy like him, a past captain, who all of these guys know.
M
5:40Martin DevlinGUEST
You know, this is the important thing about Tana and the squad.

We're probably about a six or seven out of every 10.
M
41:26Martin DevlinGUEST
And that's why the rankings are why they are, and that's why you're the best team in the world.
M
41:30Martin DevlinGUEST
But that, there was no surprise at all that the All Blacks bounced back, and this is the Tana Umaga thing.
M
41:35Martin DevlinGUEST
Because here we were with this fantastic record at Eden Park.

Only had to make 140, missed 23.
N
29:02Nigel YaldenHOST
I think that'll give Tana Umaga something to be able to put the angry face on for the early part of training for Bledisloe Cup number two.
N
29:08Nigel YaldenHOST
Kick pass ratios, I actually thought the Wallabies would have been a lot higher than one to seven, and I thought it was quite interesting even late in the game because they just weren't able to get out of their own 22, they were having to resort to kicking the ball, which I know they did not want to do, but that speaks to the All Blacks, even though I just said they did miss some tackles, even at that time, the defensive intensity that they were bringing.
N
29:32Nigel YaldenHOST
The individual performers, I'll start with the Wallabies.
