We translated this Australian rugby player’s confusing interview
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.
There aren’t enough adjectives to accurate convey just how awesome Nick “Honey Badger” Cummins is. The Australian rugby star is known for his down-to-earth demeanor and post-game interviews that confuse anyone on the planet who isn’t Australian.
As SB Nation’s resident Australian I helped decipher his farewell interview last year when he was leaving the Western Force and now he’s back I’m here to help you work out what he’s saying again.
“You know what, sounds like I’ve been, bloody whacked in the Niagra Falls. Sorry about that.”
“The loss was tough. I feel like I’ve been hit in the nuts. Sorry about that”
“The mindset was just. Like bloody Burke and Wills. Get up the guts and just press forward and wait until some bastard rescues you.”
”The plan was to just keep pushing forward (like 19th century explorers Burke and Wills), even if the plan was a failure, and hope something good happened.”
“It was quite an emotional loss, but jeez there’s a bee’s wanger it in and we’re not far off.”
“Losing was tough, but we’re close to where we need to be. The competition is so close the difference is the size of a bee’s penis.”
“Sea of blue: We’re going to bloody kick the tires and light the fires. So get your jacksie down bangin’ on a seat and we’ll shake hands and tell a few stories after the game.”
“Force fans: We’re going to do what’s needed. You get your asses to the stadium, make some noise and we’ll have good things to talk about after the game.”
