Episode Details

Rugby podcasters Brett McKay and Harry Jones are joined on The 8-9 Combo by two-time RWC winning Wallabies and Queensland legend Tim Horan, with the Stan Sport commentator and lover of stadium pies casting his eye over the state of the Australian teams and where the competition favouritism lays with four rounds to play in Super Rugby Pacific.

After a fascinating round of Show & Tell with some wonderful memorabilia out of the Horan Archive (a couple of sports bags under the stairs), Tim points forward to what a Wallabies side under new coach Joe Schmidt and the kind of players that might fit that style, who he believes he’s talking to when commentating games, and even some revolutionary thoughts on what might revitalise Super Rugby Pacific and the game in general in the southern hemisphere.
