Joining us now to discuss sport is Tumamao Harawira.
Martin Crowe is back on the cricket pitch.
Martin Crowe is kidding himself.
He's been off the pitch for a very long time.
He may have been a professional in his time,
but cricket isn't an old-man's game these days.
Players today are very good.
- Where's your faith? He was a professional in the past.
You don't muck around in cricket.
You need to be training for six to seven months
before getting on the pitch.
You don't just wake up one day
and decide you want to go back to cricket.
This is a very special sport.
- Forget about that.
To the netball, the Mystics are preparing for the finals.
The million dollar question is can they beat the Firebirds?
With their performance over the past two or three weeks,
and despite your scourges against this team,
I think they can do it.
I think the team want to win
and be the first NZ team to win the championship.
I think they can do it,
but they have a major challenge ahead of them
with the Queensland team which is undefeated this season.
It is a major challenge, but I think they can do it.
It will be tough.
To the league, last week I said the Kangaroos would win by 10
and that's what happened. My predictions were correct.
The Warriors will the Rabbitohs this weekend,
who will win? I say the Rabbitohs.
That's you all over - always picking at the Warriors.
However, I maintain my faith in the Warriors.
- When are you going to change your tune?
Always 'the Warriors are going to win, the Warriors are going to win!'
When is it going to change?
That's a good song.
They need this victory as they have a bye next week
and they would've had five wins over the past month and a half.
This is a big game that they can win.
There's Chris Sandow who will be going overseas next year.
He is one of the top players at the moment.
It is said that Sandow could also win a spot with Queensland
for the State of Origin.
I'm not saying he's the best, but Chris Sandow is a talented player.
Dave Taylor did not make the team due to injury.
There are a few injuries in the Rabbitohs side,
so I think the Warriors will take full advantage of that.
You talked about the State of Origin - the Blues to win?
Boy, let me just say Queensland is the best
and have been for the past five years.
- Let's talk about rugby now.
For many years, Queensland were down and out,
and many players still think that,
but over the past five years Queensland has been on top.
- Stormers and Blues tonight? Blues.
- Crusaders vs Chiefs tomorrow? Crusaders.
Those were all wrong. Tumamao Harawira, thank you.
