It’s 2 from 2 in the Autumn Series for the All Blacks, as they eye the ultimate prize - a grand slam. The AB’s were too good in the end for a valiant Scottish side, who had to drag themselves back from a 17-0 drubbing by half time.But it was one All Black in particular who broke the hearts of 68,000 Scotland fans, and cemented Murrayfield as the All Black’s spiritual home-away-from-home. Sir Damian of McKenzie showed up half way through the second act once again to put on a dominant performance and guide New Zealand to a much needed victory. Covered in blood and black tape, he manoeuvred through the Scottish like a wiley old fox and proved he is the ultimate super-sub and frankly irreplaceable. Can he do it against England? Or will Razor Robertson change things up at Twickenham. The boys preview the upcoming match, the possible lineups and ask the big question - how many yellow is too much yellow? Hosted on Acast.

Splitting the G
Revenge is sweet. It’s even sweeter against Ireland. Yes the All Blacks have made in three in a row now against their new foe and it seems like it’s back to the old days. We dissect the mess of a game it was, unjustified red cards and sloppy performances. But there is a silver lining! The final twenty is back and it’s looking as All Black as ever. We preview this weekend’s matchup at Murrayfield. Will the Scots put up a good fight, led by the fishmonger Finn Russell? Or will the men in black be too powerful in the end? It’s grand slam hopes on the line for NZ, and a first ever chance at victory for highland men. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Deep Dish
It’s take two in Chicago, as the All Blacks and Ireland meet for the second time at Soldier Field. Can the men in green bring down New Zealand once again or will a well-honed All Blacks side prove too good, as they look for their first Grand Slam northern tour since 2010. We have a new NPC champion - and it’s EXACTLY who you’d expect. Yes Canterbury have done it yet again - winning a title after a woeful season the year before. The forever kings of rugby are crowned once more - and it’s bloody annoying. Poor Otago put up a valiant fight, but ultimately got dealt to like a naughty school boy. Oh well, there’s always 2037!

Battle of the South
The NPC has finally reached its peak, as we head into the grand final. And it’s only fitting that the number 1 & 2 teams from the competition will face each other in one last clash. Will the in-form Otago win their first title since 1998 and lock away all the silverware til next season, or will Canterbury do what Canterbury do best, pipping teams when it matters most. Who will win the battle of the South and take the crown as national provincial champion?We discuss the upcoming 2026 tour of South Africa and take a trip down memory lane as we recall our early morning wake up calls from our rugby mad childhoods.

Cam-eth the Hour
This week on the show, we dissect a thrilling quarter final round in the Bunnings NPC, as four teams get one step closer to the title. Otago make a clutch play through first-five Cam Millar (and a rather dodgy drop goal attempt) to push out a valiant Mooloos team in the dying seconds. Season leaders Canterbury get the scare of their life from the spirited Counties Manukau underdogs, but manage to scrape a win together in extra time, in true Canterbury fashion. And it’s two wins for the two Bays, as they see out the two T’s - Taranaki and Tasman. We preview this weekend games - who will win the battle of blue & gold and will the Magpies pick at a tired Canterbury carcass and fly off to their second final in two years? Either way, we’ve decided that the NPC is the greatest rugby competition on earth…behind Super Rugby of course. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
