Episode Details

Now we get into the rugby. After the buzz of Christchurch, Tony Johnson sticks around to break down a massive Super Rugby round and what it means for the run home.

All five New Zealand teams got the job done, but the bigger story sits in the table. The Chiefs and Hurricanes are setting the pace, the Blues are right there, and the Crusaders are quietly climbing into a spot no one will want to deal with come finals time. Tony unpacks why they’re still dangerous, even without hitting top gear.

There’s also a look at the Brumbies slide, the Reds showing real fight despite another loss, and what’s next for Moana Pasifika as the competition faces a potential shake-up. Plus, we get into that bizarre Drua try, the laws around grounding the ball, and the ongoing All Blacks first-five debate between Barrett, McKenzie and Love.
