Legendary Sky Sport NZ commentator Tony Johnson joined Brett McKay & Harry Jones on The 8-9 Combo Rugby Podcast this week, as they try to get to the bottom of just why 2025 has been the best start to a Super Rugby season in living memory. And it's not an easy question with one simple answer. It's not just that all the Australian team are competitive. It's not just that anyone can beat anyone on any give weekend. It's not just that the demise of the Melbourne Rebels has boosted depth in other squads. It might be the do with it being a Lions Tour year, and the extra jeopardy that brings. It might be weather-related, and the fact that it's been a nice summer on both sides of the Tasman. It's quite likely all of the above.   Whatever the reason or reasons, it has been a wonderful start to the Super Rugby Pacific season.   Games of the Week: SRP Rd.7: Hurricanes v Waratahs, Wellington URC Rd.14: Ulster v Stormers, Belfast Premiership Rd.13: Bath v Harlequins, the Rec Top 14 Rd.20: Clermont v La Rochelle, Clermont League One Week 15: Canon Eagles v Toyota Verblitz, Tokyo MLR Rd.6: Houston SaberCats v San Diego Legion, Houston   #rugby #rugbypodcast #89Combo #SuperRugbyPacific #UnitedRugbyChampionship #Premiership #Top14 #JapanRugbyLeagueOne #MajorLeagueRugby   Find us: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@8-9Combo?sub_confirmation=1 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1BcKhb24YOtwQhKc0S3sDm Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-8-9-combo-rugby-podcast/id1729575866   Social media: #89Combo Twitter: https://twitter.com/89combo BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/89combo.bsky.social   Find Brett and Harry on both Twitter and on BlueSky: @BMcSport + @HaribaldiJones   Music: "Stalling" by Topher Mohr & Alex Elena (via YouTube Creator Studio)   Voiceovers by Chookman + Sean Maloney Learn more about your ad choices.

France blew the 2025 Six Nations tournament apart when they thumped Ireland last weekend in Dublin, and the fallout is still fresh in the mind of former Ireland international turned renowned pundit Bernard Jackman, who joined Brett McKay & Harry Jones for this week's episode of The 8-9 Combo Rugby Podcast. The 15-point margin largely flattered Ireland, with Bernard glowing in his praise for the French team, honest in his own underestimations of Les Bleus, and clear still very disappointed about where Ireland now find themselves. It's a wonderful chat that gets to the bottom of so much. There's some interesting discussion around Wales being the most likely source of upset in this weekend's final round, too.

The biggest rugby match of 2025 will almost certainly decide this year's Six Nations tournament, when Ireland host France in Dublin this weekend. The Telegraph's Charlie Morgan joined Brett McKay & Harry Jones for this week's episode of The 8-9 Combo Rugby Podcast, where all the weeds were got into for this blockbuster clash. France have gone down the 7-1 bench split route again, but in doing so have named a bench that almost literally weighs a tonne. Ireland have the benefit of playing a massive game at home, but also have the heartstrings angle covered, with legend stalwarts Peter O'Mahony, Cian Healy, and Conor Murray all announcing their intent to retire from International Rugby after the Six Nations. We think there's maybe only a kick between them. Plus, some quick thoughts Scotland-Wales, and England-Italy, including Steve ‘Slash' Borthwick going back to the future with a few selections Games of the Week: • 6Ns: Ireland v France, Dublin • SRP Rd.4: Waratahs v Force, Sydney • URC remnant Rd.1: Sharks v Lions, Durban • MLR Rd.4: Miami v Chicago, Fort Lauderdale #rugby #rugbypodcast #89Combo #SixNations #Ireland #France # Scotland #Wales #England #Italy #SuperRugbyPacific #UnitedRugbyChampionship #Top14 #JapanRugbyLeagueOne #MajorLeagueRugby Find us: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@8-9Combo?sub_confirmation=1 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1BcKhb24YOtwQhKc0S3sDm Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-8-9-combo-rugby-podcast/id1729575866 Social media: #89Combo Twitter: https://twitter.com/89combo BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/89combo.bsky.social Find Brett and Harry on both Twitter and on BlueSky: @BMcSport + @HaribaldiJones Music: "Stalling" by Topher Mohr & Alex Elena (via YouTube Creator Studio) Voiceovers by Chookman + Sean Maloney Learn more about your ad choices.

Scotland showed some but not enough grit before going down to Ireland at Murrayfield, England's 80th minute winner to beat France by 1 will keep Twickenham Man happy for weeks, and Italy were just way too good for a Wales who still might not have hit rock bottom.

Last week was all about the Seven Deadly Sins within the Six Nations, and for the bumper second round of matches it's Crime & Punishment. Brett McKay & Harry Jones take a look at three individually intriguing games for the latest episode of The 8-9 Combo Rugby Podcast. It is, of course, a round with three really interesting matchups, and three games that could go either way. But punishment looms in all three contests, too. Are Wales at rock-bottom with another loss? Can Italy cope with favouritism? Can France cope with favouritism? What would England have to do next with another loss? How does a traditional Celtic rivalry play out? A great weekend of rugby awaits us. And are the Wallabies in for more punishment, with the news Joe Schmidt won't continue as Head Coach after The Rugby Championship later in the year? Who comes in next? Great question… Games of the Week: Six Nations Rd.2, a South African make-up game in the URC, and the Grand Final replay in Japan all stick out like sore thumbs #rugby #rugbypodcast #89Combo #SixNations Find us: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@8-9Combo?sub_confirmation=1 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1BcKhb24YOtwQhKc0S3sDm Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/the-8-9-combo-rugby-podcast/id1729575866 Social media: #89Combo Twitter: https://twitter.com/89combo BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/89combo.bsky.social Find Brett and Harry on both Twitter and on BlueSky: @BMcSport + @HaribaldiJones Music: "Stalling" by Topher Mohr & Alex Elena (via YouTube Creator Studio) Voiceovers by Chookman + Sean Maloney Learn more about your ad choices.

There are some strict laws that many of us have no idea about. Here's a list of 11 illegal things that you're doing pretty much every day. You might not even realize it, but there are so many things you probably do on a day-to-day basis that are totally illegal. There are some laws that many of us have no idea about, while others know about them but don't believe they'll ever get caught. Bright Side has decided to open your eyes to some of the illegal stuff that you're doing pretty much every day. TIMESTAMPS Downloading torrents 0:31 Connecting to public Wi-Fi 1:27 Selling on eBay without declaring your income 2:26 Using a fake name online 3:16 Streaming TV shows 4:12 Eating before paying in the store 5:05 Using copyrighted content 5:50 Texting while driving 6:50 Recording Skype conversations 8:03 Sharing passwords 8:48 Using social media when you're underage 9:44 SUMMARY - You can't legally watch movies without paying for them! And this rule also goes for every single Torrent file. Simply speaking, if the item is copyrighted, and you're not the owner of it, then downloading it for free is 100% against the law. - If we're talking about public Wi-Fi, you have to have the provider's permission and follow the terms of service to use it legally. - If you sell on eBay but don't declare your earnings yourself, eBay will submit Form 1099 and report your income to the IRS. - Faking your name or ID can send you to prison for 5 to 20 years! Using a fake name is considered “hacking” because you didn't correctly authorize yourself as a computer owner. - An easy way to find out if you're watching content legally is to see whether or not there are commercials during the video. If there aren't any, it's more than likely that your blissful little TV-show-binge-watching party of one is breaking the law. - According to the law, you must pay for everything before you take it from the store, and your “testing” falls into this category as well. - Most images are subject to copyright, and it is, in fact, illegal to use them anywhere. When it comes to using copyrighted content, you have to know the rules of something called “fair use”. - Even if you're an experienced driver and have lightning-fast thumbs, it's still better to pull over to type that text message or simply wait until you get to where you're going before you write and send it. In the USA, texting while driving is strictly prohibited in 41 states. - According to the law, you can't record any conversation without the other person's consent. In some states the same principle applies to phone calls as well: it's illegal to record them without both parties knowing about it. - Sharing your Netflix password, for example, is officially illegal. Having a user's permission isn't enough if you want to share a password; to do that legally, you must have the permission of the site owner as well! - You're not supposed to have WhatsApp until you're 16! Kids these days probably consider this unfair and find ways to sneak around this rule. So it's not surprising that according to statistics, more than half of children use social media by the age of 10!
