The All Blacks are good because they hurt when they lose. You staff are no different. I think the fans don't really
00:00:05
understand how much it does hurt people. I remember 207 that was horrific. >> How often do you think about 2019?
00:00:13
>> Pretty regular. >> Really? >> Yeah. He was probably not the most
00:00:18
talented rugby player. Definitely the most best work ethic. Mentally the toughest. In the end, he was the
00:00:24
greatest rugby player of all time. I think he always knew I I wanted to talk to him if I said, "Oh, let's go and have
00:00:29
a cup of tea." So, we went and had a cup of tea and I said, "You know, I reckon
00:00:34
there's only one thing that's going to stop us winning." And he said, "What's that?" And I said,
00:00:39
"Yeah." >> One of the players um in your team in Japan is um Aaron Smith.
00:00:45
>> Usually like to say huge sorry to my partner Tegan. >> Why didn't you throw him to the Wolves
00:00:51
at the time? [Music]
