EP69 - Finlay Christie - LIVE @edfringe 2024 - Robin Them BlindLooks can be deceiving, especially when it comes to 6-and-a-half-year-old Robin, an unassuming boy from Northampton who's secretly the mastermind behind a thriving drug empire built on a fake prescription pad. In just two years, Robin has climbed to the top, ruling as the most powerful drug lord in the area. By his side is TK, his loyal right-hand man, who's been with him every step of the way. But as TK prepares to start middle school, he's eager to carve out his own territory and become a kingpin in his new playground, even if it means betraying his pint-sized boss. With Robin's sticky little fingers reaching far and wide, he begins to sense the looming treachery around him. Can he outmanoeuvre his ambitious friend and hold onto his throne? From corrupted dinner ladies to soft play assassinations, this is an all-made-up story like you've never heard before.Wanna follow Finlay Christiehttps://www.instagram.com/finlaycomedy/?hl=en https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPap5skbnRGd6k90OZFmS7A Wanna follow Harry Stachini…Insta: @HarrystandupFB: @HarrystachinicomedianYouTube: @HarrystachiniTwitter: @HstachiniThe Staff Room PodcastWanna follow Lewis Coleman…Insta: @lewiscolemanTwitter: @LewisColeman93Wanna follow Ben Hart…Insta: @benhartcomedyFB: @benhartactorTwitter: @benhart0592CreditsRecorded by Lewis ColemanEdited by Clementine Bogg-Hargroves Produced by @GetGiddierArtwork by Elliot @melodyleeart Soundtrack by @grahammccusker#NewPodcast #ComedyPodcast #Edinburgh #Fringe #Storytelling #Northampton #Finlaychristie #liveshow #Edfringe #Drugs #Kids Hosted on Acast.

Which players yesterday put the most pressure on for places in the All Blacks side for the Rugby Championship? If we assume the side that played against England was the first-choice 23, who put their hand up highest yesterday for a place in the 23 for the next test against Argentina in Wellington in 3 weeks' time? I think anyone would say Billy Proctor did. He made a really, really good debut at centre, good running lines, nice hands under pressure, albeit against a Fijian side that didn't get up in his face like England did to Jordie Barrett and Rieko Ioane when they were here. One of the qualities of great centres is the ability to set up their outsides, the way Joe Stanley, Frank Bunce and Conrad Smith did. Again, Billy Proctor looks like the type of player who can do that, as well as break the line himself. He's an eyes-up player and a very quick decision-maker -so he's one. I'd say Cortez Ratima is making a pretty good case for inclusion in the 23. It sounds like TJ Perenara will be back for the Rugby Championship and Noah Hotham did well on debut yesterday too. Throw in Finlay Christie and there's a bit of a logjam building at halfback. One thing I'd love to see, maybe on the end of year tour, is the Cam Roigard / Cortez Ratima halfback double punch. But even before Roigard comes back, I think Cortez Ratima is ideally suited right now to the impact role off the All Blacks bench.The scrum was good yesterday, with an almost entirely different pack in action, the lineout was certainly better than the shambles at Eden Park and they conceded just one try against a side renowned for their attacking unpredictability and strike power. So, a lot of boxes were ticked. There is, of course, the caveat of how much we can take from a game against Fiji, who, while they've improved in recent years, didn't look anything like the same side that beat England and Australia last year. But you can only play what's in front of you, and the All Blacks did that. And finally- no cards, red or yellow, in the first three tests under Razor. Compare that to last year, with Sam Cane's red and Shannon Frizell's yellow in the World Cup final, Codie Taylor and Aaron Smith's yellows against Ireland in the quarter-final, Ethan de Groot's red against Namibia in pool play, Will Jordan's yellow against France in the opening game and Sam Cane's yellow and Scott Barrett's red in the warm-up match against South Africa. 5 yellow and three red cards in the last eight test of 2023, none so far this year. That's a sign of pretty good discipline under the new regime. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

All Blacks coach Scott Robertson has declared Cortez Ratima ready for a test debut on Saturday night. There's just one change to the side that pipped England by a point for the Eden Park rematch, with Ratima named in jersey 21 to back up Finlay Christie who replaces the crocked TJ Perenara. Sportstalk host D'Arcy Waldegrave explains what this means for the upcoming test match. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

After a nail bitingly close match last week, the All Blacks are facing England in their second test of the season.  Both squads have been named with almost no changes except Finlay Christie replacing TJ Perenara following his injury.  England's Joe Marler is also out of commission, being replaced with Fin Baxter.  They'll be facing off at a packed out Eden Park on Saturday.  ZB Rugby Commentator Elliott Smith told Ryan Bridge that for the All Blacks, last week was more about setting some systems in place and this week is about fine tuning that.  He said they got the win last week, and with that up on the board, it's time to improve.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

All Blacks coach Ian Foster has made what could be the final big call of his tenure, handing the No 10 jersey to Richie Mo'unga for the second test against South Africa at Ellis Park in Johannesburg this weekend. Foster is also gambling on two of his less-experienced props, Ethan de Groot and Tyrel Lomax, to match the Springboks' monstrous men. The All Blacks props have 20 test caps between them. It is the first test start of the year for Mo'unga, who guided the Crusaders to victory in Super Rugby Pacific, and has watched on ever since as the All Blacks have made faltering starts in all their matches this year. Incumbent first five-eighths Beauden Barrett, a two-time World Player of the Year, is relegated to the substitutes bench, from where he could enter the fray as a replacement for Mo'unga or in the outside backs. Other than the change at 10, the beleaguered coach largely played it safe in his backline selections, sticking with the same players who ran on to the field in last week's 26-10 humbling in the Rugby Championship opener in Mbombela. That result from a directionless performance was the fifth defeat in six starts for Foster's men. Jordie Barrett has overcome ankle injury concerns to hold on to the No 15 jersey, with another Springbok barrage of high balls likely. Caleb Clarke and Will Jordan start on the wings, while the coach persists with Rieko Ioane in the No 13 jersey. David Havili is at second five-eighths and Aaron Smith continues at halfback. Under-pressure captain Sam Cane has retained his place as openside flanker, and takes the field alongside No 8 Ardie Savea and Shannon Frizell, who has been called up to fill the No 6 jersey after Akira Ioane, who moves to the bench, had little impact last week. Locks Scott Barrett and Sam Whitelock return to duty, as does hooker Samisoni Taukei'aho — one of the few bright performers last week. Uncapped tighthead Fletcher Newell is set to make his All Blacks debut from the bench, with Angus Ta'avao missing out after struggling in the front row last week. Codie Taylor returns to the bench after being dropped in the first test, while George Bower, Tupou Vaa'i, Finlay Christie and Quinn Tupaea make up the rest of the substitutes. "Belief and confidence remain high in our group, which is working incredibly hard this week," said Foster. "Playing at Ellis Park is always a special occasion for any All Black team, and this weekend will be no different. "Adding to that, the Freedom Cup is on the line which makes this a challenge that everyone is looking forward to." Meanwhile, Duane Vermeulen is back for the Springboks at No 8 for his first test this year as South Africa made five changes to its starting lineup, the team announced earlier this week. Two of those changes were forced, with Jaden Hendrikse at halfback in place of Faf de Klerk, who was ruled out with concussion, while Jesse Kriel replaces Kurt-Lee Arendse, who was sent off, injured and subsequently suspended for four games after a dangerous tackle on Beauden Barrett in the first test. South Africa coach Jacques Nienaber also made two tactical switches in the front row by bringing in Ox Nché for Trevor Nyakane at loosehead prop and restoring Bongi Mbonambi as starting hooker in place of Malcolm Marx. Tighthead prop Frans Malherbe is set for his 50th test. The Springboks are seeking back-to-back wins over the All Blacks for the first time since 2009 and another defeat for New Zealand is expected to see Foster lose his job. The All Blacks have slipped to an all-time low of No 5 on the world rankings. All Blacks: Jordie Barrett, Will Jordan, Rieko Ioane, David Havili, Caleb Clarke, Richie Mo'unga, Aaron Smith, Ardie Savea, Sam Cane (captain), Shannon Frizell, Scott Barrett, Sam Whitelock, Tyrell Lomax, Samisoni Taukei'aho, Ethan de Groot. Reserves: Codie Taylor, George Bower, Fletcher Newell*, Tupou Vaa'i, Akira Ioane, Finlay Christie, Beauden Barrett, Quinn Tupaea. South Africa: Damian Willemse, Jesse Kriel, Lukhanyo Am, Damian de Allende, Makazole Mapimpi, Handré Pollard, Jaden Hendrikse, Duane Vermeulen, Pieter-Steph du Toit, Siya Kolisi (captain), Lood de Jager, Eben Etzebeth, Frans Malherbe, Bongi Mbonambi, Ox Nché. Reserves: Malcolm Marx, Steven Kitshoff, Vincent Koch, Franco Mostert, Jasper Wiese, Kwagga Smith, Herschel Jantjies, Willie le Roux.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Caleb Clarke will return for the All Blacks this weekend, taking his place on the wing for the first test against the Springboks at Mbombela Stadium. For their first test in South Africa since 2018, the All Blacks have named a few surprises in the team for the clash on Sunday morning (NZ time). Samisoni Taukei'aho, in his 12th test, will make just his second start at the top level, while Angus Ta'avao takes on the starting tighthead prop role in the absense of Nepo Laulala. George Bower, the best of the team's props in the Ireland series, retains his place as the first-choice loosehead. Tyrel Lomax and Ethan de Groot - neither of whom were selected in the squad for the Ireland series - will provide cover from the bench. Scott Barrett joins Sam Whitelock in the locking department with Brodie Retallick unavailable due to injury, while Tupou Vaa'i will look to make his impact late if called upon. The back row is a predictable one, with Akira Ioane, Sam Cane and Ardie Savea retaining their roles, while Aaron Smith and Beauden Barrett hold down the No 9 and 10 jerseys. Will Jordan and Clarke provide speed and flair on the wings, outside Rieko Ioane and David Havili in the midfield, and Jordie Barrett at fullback. "What a great way to start this year's Rugby Championship. It's always an exciting tournament to be part of," All Blacks head coach Ian Foster said. "This year's draw means we have a massive challenge of two games here in the South Africa. "We have settled in well in Mbombela and are preparing for what is always an intense game against our old foe. "Many of our squad are here in South Africa for the first time. This gives us another opportunity to add new experiences and grow our game." All Blacks: Jordie Barrett, Will Jordan, Rieko Ioane, David Havili, Caleb Clarke, Beauden Barrett, Aaron Smith, Ardie Savea, Sam Cane, Akira Ioane, Scott Barrett, Sam Whitelock, Angus Ta'avao, Samisoni Taukei'aho, George Bower. Reserves: Dane Coles, Ethan de Groot, Tyrel Lomax, Tupou Vaa'i, Shannon Frizell, Finlay Christie, Richie Mo'unga, Quinn Tupaea.

Fresh from being named in the All Blacks squad for the 2021 Steinlager Series, catch up with newly named All Blacks Finlay Christie and Ethan Blackadder alongside 17-Test prop Karl Tu'inukuafe. Host Rob Dunne chats to the players about being named in the squad for the first time, what they can expect while in the environment and looks back at their road into the black jersey.

Five uncapped players are part of the first All Blacks team of the year. Props George Bower and Ethan de Groot, flanker Ethan Blackadder, halfback Finlay Christie and midfielder Quinn Tupaea have been included in a 36-strong squad for a test against Tonga and two against Fiji next month. The selections come with a handful of senior players, including captain Sam Cane, either injured or unavailable for the All Blacks opening hit out of the 2021 international season. Clay Wilson reports.

New faces have been injected into the All Blacks but coach Ian Foster has taken a conservative path by naming Sam Whitelock captain in his first squad selection of the year. Midfield back Quinn Tupaea, halfback Finlay Christie, loose forward Ethan Blackadder and prop Ethan de Groot win promotion to a 36-man squad for home Tests next month against Fiji and Tonga. Crusaders prop George Bower is a fifth uncapped player, although he has been part of a previous squad. Former All Black Frank Bunce and RNZ rugby reporter Joe Porter spoke to Corin Dann.

All Blacks selectors have battled depth and injury concerns to choose their 36-man squad for the upcoming tests against Tonga and Fiji.Among the group include new caps Ethan de Groot, George Bower, Ethan Blackadder, Finlay Christie and Quinn Tupaea.David Havili's back in the squad for the first time in early four years, while Angus Ta'avao, Luke Jacobson and Braydon Ennor all return after absences.Selector Grant Fox told Elliott Smith the level of talent in New Zealand mixed in with injuries made for a tricky team naming."We're challenged in some areas, particularly in the midfield, that was probably the biggest area of decision. That went right to the weekend to finally make a decision on where we're heading there."Beauden Barrett, who's recently come back from Japan, and Brodie Retallick, who hasn't played for the All Blacks since the 2019 World Cup, have been included.Anton Lienert-Brown is one of the lucky 36 depsite recently having surgery on his elbow.LISTEN ABOVE
