Podcast appearances and mentions of sarah hirini

Black Ferns captain Sarah Hirini raised a few eyebrows after she dropped the f-bomb on live TV - and it's prompted some debate. After the team claimed the world championship title in Los Angeles, Hirini gave a post-match interview, which sparked some controversy. NZ Herald rugby writer Gregor Paul wrote an opinion piece critiquing the practice of post-match interviews - and he stands by it. "I'm not a big fan of sports stars - or anyone really - swearing in public as part of an entertainment package, I think it's unnecessary."

FROM SARAH HIRINI

On this episode of Between Two Beers we're rewinding the clock back to August of 2021 when we talked to Sarah Hirini.   Sarah was one of the most impressive guests we've had on the podcast and after watching her epic display helping the Black Ferns win the World Cup final – figured it was a pretty good time to re-share her message.  Sarah is an Olympic Games gold and silver medalist, a commonwealth Games gold medallist, a six-time sevens world series winner, two-time RUGBY World Cup winner, and was New Zealand's flagbearer at the Tokyo Olympics, the first Maori woman to ever have that honour.   In this episode we talked about her rugged Fielding farm-girl upbringing, why Honey Hireme-Smiler considers her the greatest leader she's ever played with, the emotional rollercoaster of the six months before the Tokyo Olympics after tragically losing her mum, how the eccentric Ruby Tui won the world's heart and much,much more.  Sarah's CV is impressive, but her personality is better. It's easy to see why she is held in such high regard by everyone she plays with. She oozes class and control, while also being so open and honest. A special thanks to Sarah for being so open about the loss of her mum, there were parts in this episode when we were all in tears.   The audio on this one is a little niggly in patches, it was recorded when Sarah was in MIQ, but stick with it, you'll find its worth it. Also, we've cut out the first 10 mins from the original recording – as it was all MIQ chat – and no one wants to hear that in 2022.  Listen on iheart or wherevers you get your podcasts from, and check you podcast app for show notes. A huge thanks to those supporting the show on patreon for the cost of a cup of coffee a month, to get involved head to Between Two Beers.com.            This episode was brought to you from the Export Beer garden studio.

Sarah Hirini will go down as a Legend. There is no question about it. This wonderful chat nearly bought Staffy to tears, what an amazing journey.

Last weekend's semi-final was one of the most exhilarating, desperate, thrilling rugby games I've ever seen in my life. It felt chaotic. Totally unpredictable. The French dominated at the breakdown. The New Zealanders played at such a tempo, lunging and scrambling and hurling the ball wide. God, it was exciting. After 80 minutes, you'd have to say agree, no team deserved to lose that game. But the best teams will take every flicker of good fortune they can muster. And so tonight, the Black Ferns contest the final. I've told you before about my past experience with the women's sevens rugby team. It was eight years ago in Brazil, when the team had just been formed to compete on the World tour. I flew down and spent a week living and working with them in Rio de Janiero. Because rugby sevens was to become an Olympic sport, and because there was now a Women's World's Series to contest, New Zealand Rugby had started investing in women's rugby in a way they hadn't before. Still, back then, few Kiwi rugby fans would have known the players' names. I was only there for a week, but by living, and eating, playing cards and even exercising with the team, I had a really special insight into a group of young women would be soon be stars. They were captained by a workhorse called Sarah Hirini. They had a star winger called Portia Woodman and a young smartass cracking jokes in the locker room and putting gangsta' rap on the stereo, called Ruby Tui. They were young. They were very fresh. But already you could sense extraordinary potential. That team won Sevens World Champs after Sevens World Champs, but when it came to the Rio Olympics, they had to settle for silver. It was a tough experience. I was there at the Olympic Park that night in 2016, watching the match slip from their hands. They didn't deserve to win but nonetheless it was very emotional. But you might also remember how it ended for the Sevens Sisters. Five years later at the Tokyo Olympics, they turned it around. Five years of graft, separation from their families, and Covid-19 disruption, and they did it. They were the darlings of New Zealand's Olympic team, and they returned home with gold medals swinging from their necks. Sarah Hirini, Portia Woodman, and Ruby Tui will all start tonight. This game is different, I get that. England are the dominant team in World rugby. Their forwards are incredible. And most obviously, this is a game of fifteens, not rugby sevens. But finals are decided by moments. And perhaps even more valuable than form, is a team's capacity to respond to pressure. This will be the biggest crowd to ever watch a women's rugby match. And pressure does funny things. No matter what happens, nice to know that within that amazing Black Ferns squad, there are players who've been there and done that. I don't need to state the obvious but I will anyway. Win or lose, the Black Ferns have been a joy to watch throughout this World Cup. Their humanity as individuals makes them far more fun to support than the men. They don't hesitate to show emotion. For their sake, tonight, I really hope it's joy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Staffy chats to Black Ferns sevens player and flagbearer Sarah Hirini

Black Ferns Sevens Captain Sarah Hirini and rower Hamish Bond will lead New Zealand's athletes into the Tokyo Olympics, with the pair named as dual flag bearers for the opening ceremony.This is the first time New Zealand has named dual flag bearers, selection one male (Te Pou Hapai Tane) and one female (Te Pou Hapai Wahine) athlete to have the honour.The announcement was made in Auckland last night; however, a private gathering was held in Tauranga days ago to bestow Hirini with her cloak before the men's and women's sevens team flew out for a pre-Olympics tournament in Townsville earlier this week.Hirini gave a teary speech in front of family, friends and teammates."Being able to carry the flag and represent the women's sevens team and the wider New Zealand Team at the Opening Ceremony is going to be such a huge honour," Hirini said. "I can't wait to represent my country at these Games."Bond, who was in attendance at the Auckland announcement, said he was extremely proud to be carrying the flag alongside Hirini."I believe that we will be similar leaders...we will be leading by example. That will certainly be how we approach the role," Bond said."If you look back on the people who have been our flag bearers over the years it's a pretty amazing bunch of athletes so to be bestowed this opportunity is really special to me."Our flag bearers have represented us with distinction, pride and respect in the past and I'm really honoured to be adding my name to that list."Bond took a moment to pay respects to the past flag bearers, singling out the late Peter Snell, who was the flag bearer for the opening ceremony in 1964. That year, Snell won two gold medals at the Games, which were also in Tokyo. Snell, who Bond labelled as New Zealand's "greatest ever Olympian", died in late 2019.Speaking as to why Bond and Hirini were named, New Zealand Team Chef de Mission Rob Waddell says the pair were chosen as they exemplify the values and culture of the New Zealand Team."Sarah and Hamish are outstanding athletes and are also leaders off the field of play," Waddell said."These athletes are role models and bring a huge amount of mana to our team. I'm extremely proud to be naming them as flag bearers."They will follow in the footsteps of some of New Zealand's greatest sportspeople when they lead the New Zealand Team into the Olympic Games Opening Ceremony on July 23rd."text by Christopher Reive, NZ Herald
