Read excerpt
The Wallabies beat the Springboks in Perth, and David Pembroke, Steve Hansen and Ewen McKenzie break down how Australia did it, why Sua'ali'i looked far more influential on the wing, and what it means heading into the Bledisloe Cup and the Nations Championship. The panel praise Australia’s aerial contest, breakdown fight, midfield running lines, and key moments like Donaldson’s try set-up and Wilson’s lineout impact, while questioning what South Africa learned from 13 changes and a shift away fr
13 CHANGES: Wallabies v Springboks in Perth + WXV Preview (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Rassie Erasmus has named a Springboks side with 13 changes for Perth, and it’s sparked the big question: is this a golden Wallabies opportunity, or just another Springbok test of depth? David Pembroke, Steve Hansen and Ewen McKenzie go straight to selection, match plan, and where Australia can realistically hurt South Africa, from scrum and lineout pressure to the aerial contest with Sua'ali'i moved to the wing.

New Zealand Rugby has fired a serious warning shot: forecast losses of $66 million over five years, and a structure they say is unsustainable, even after banking $9 million from Baltimore. David Pembroke and Ewen McKenzie argue the game cannot keep operating in fragments, and ask what comes next: more All Blacks tests offshore, a Miami Rugby Championship match, or even a radical 2029 Lions series across Melbourne, Sydney, Auckland, Los Angeles and New York. They also preview the Ashi Super Dry P
Greatest Rivalry Test 4: Boks Beat All Blacks in Baltimore – Steve Hansen and Ewen McKenzie react (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Baltimore delivered a classic as the Springboks beat the All Blacks 43-28 to seal the series 3-1, and David Pembroke is joined by Steve Hansen and Ewen McKenzie to pull apart what swung it. The panel praises South Africa’s basics, defence, scramble, high-ball dominance and ruthless lineout-maul strike, while picking through where New Zealand can close the gap, from ball into contact, breakdown speed and scrum pressure on Springbok ball to stopping the maul and finding more direct options.
