Podcasts about all blacks

In a big weekend of sport involving the Black Caps, the Silver Ferns and the All Whites, the All Blacks are taking on England at Twickenham overnight. 

It's Nations Pod time ahead of the third weekend of the autumn internationals. Tom is still reeling from Scotland's narrow defeat by New Zealand, calling it the greatest missed opportunity in Scottish rugby history. But can they respond against the dangerous Pumas? After losing to Argentina in Steve Tandy's first match in charge, Wales now host Japan in a must-win game, with Gareth not even prepared to countenance a Welsh defeat. We also tackle the latest rugby jargon and ask whether England's stacked bench will make the difference against the All Blacks.

Tom English and Andy Burke lookback on Scotland's test match loss to the All Blacks and preview Scotland's next Autumn Nations match against Argentina. Did Scotland blow it? Have Scotland got what it takes to win the 'clutch moments' ? Is beating top teams like the All Blacks within reach? Could Argentina prove a more difficult challenge than New Zealand? Tom and Andy cover it all.

First there was the "Bomb Squad", now there's the "Pom Squad". The English rugby team has taken inspiration from the Springboks ahead of this weekend's clash against the All Blacks at Twickenham. England has replicated South Africa's infamous tactic of stacking its bench with forwards - a ploy the British media are dubbing as the "Pom Squad". Sports correspondent Dana Johannsen spoke to Lisa Owen.

The Pod is back with Goodey and Jim fresh (and a bit bruised) from the 745 charity game - where Jim “put the fear of God” into a few league legends. The lads break down a huge weekend of international rugby: England's bench-powered surge past Fiji, Scotland's heartbreak against the All Blacks, and the Springboks' masterclass in Paris despite going down to 14 men. There's plenty of chat about Fin Smith v George Ford, and Rassie proving why he's the smartest coach in rugby. The boys also reveal some big travel plans, plus Ireland bounce back against Japan, Italy going back to back against Australia, and Argentina out muscling Wales.

Are England capable of beating the All Blacks for the first time since 2019? And is this side ready to take a big scalp? Ashy and Chris head to the England team hotel and chat to Steve Borthwick about his selection which sees George Ford return at fly-half and Fin Smith drop out of the 23-man squad. They also catch up with Freddie Steward who gives a fascinating insight into dealing with the high ball under the new laws and he gives us a detailed account of how he dislocated his finger against Australia. Chris has also been to see the New Zealand head coach Scott Robertson who wants to deliver a Grand Slam this autumn.

Former All Black Nick Evans joins the team to unpack an epic Test weekend! We deep-dive into the Springboks' win over France, and ask… Are the Springboks the greatest side of all time?

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week, the All Blacks (dressed in white) and down to three yellow cards — somehow held off a charging Scotland to keep their undefeated record alive. The Boks ate a full red card and still produced the performance of the weekend, thumping a fired-up France at home. Australia stumbled their way into a famous loss to Italy, and England edged a brilliant-but-gassed Fiji side.We chat all that and a lot of BS.Grab a beer and enjoy

Chris, Ugo and Danny unpick a jam-packed weekend of autumn rugby. The Springboks storm Paris with 14 men for another statement win. Are they the clear World Cup favourites two years out? Scotland fluff their lines yet again, will they ever end their All Blacks hoodoo under Gregor Townsend? England want to make 10 Test wins in a row but have injury concerns to deal with ahead of New Zealand's trip to Twickenham. What did we learn about Steve Tandy's Wales after they were humbled by Argentina? Plus, there was a big win for Italian rugby and more bold predictions for week three.

The All Blacks chase a fifth Grand Slam while the Black Caps test their T20 World Cup form against the West Indies, and the Silver Ferns look to move past the Noeline Taurua saga. 

A second-half slump wasn't enough to break the All Black's century-long unbeaten streak against Scotland. Despite a strong start, several yellow cards and a Scottish comeback threatened the All Blacks who scraped their way to victory thanks to a match-winning try from super-sub Damian McKenzie. With Scotland in the rear-view, the team's focus turns to this weekend's test against England in Twickenham. Sports reporter Jamie Wall spoke to Lisa Owen.

Deux ans après l'élimination en quarts de finale, les Bleus se sont encore inclinés contre l'Afrique du Sud (32-17).

It's set to be an intense match as the All Blacks face Scotland at Murrayfield. The Scottish side is celebrating 100 years at their home ground, and are aiming to cap it off with their first victory over the All Blacks. Both teams have named strong sides, Scotland being led by their world-class first five Finn Russell. Former All Blacks and Scotland assistant coach Brad Mooar told Jason Pine that when he first went to Scotland, he expected to see a mercurial talent in Russell, where things just sort of happened to him. Instead, he says, Russell's a massive student of the game, who does a lot of homework on his game, his team's game, the opposition, and the game in general.

Is Saturday's game at Murrayfield Scotland's best ever opportunity to beat the All Blacks? And what would count as a good autumn for Wales? Just some of the questions that Chris, Tom and Gareth tackle ahead of busy weekend of rugby.

The All Blacks are gearing up for the second test of their end of year tour. After a nervy win over Ireland last weekend in Chicago, this week they're in Edinburgh to face Scotland. The All Blacks have never lost to the Scots and look to continue that streak when they kick-off at Murrayfield this Sunday. Sports reporter Jamie Wall spoke to Lisa Owen.

This gift allowed him to become an emotional detective, observing subtle cues in athletes before training and meetings to meet unexpressed needs, a skill he calls game-changing.The discussion explores pivotal concepts that transformed the All Blacks, including:Red Head vs. Blue Head thinking: Understanding how survival instincts (red) and rational decision-making (blue) must work together under pressureThe 2007 turning point: How a devastating World Cup loss led to embracing pressure rather than avoiding itSqueeze drills: Deliberately practicing skills under pressure to prepare for critical moments"Better people make better All Blacks": Why character development became central to the team's philosophyThe misunderstood "no dickhead policy": How leaders actually enforce team standardsSweeping the sheds: The true meaning behind this famous ritual of humilityGilbert shares intimate stories about working with legends like Dan Carter and Richie McCaw.

CHICAGO, IL - We were in the middle of a great rugby weekend in Chicago, but the MLR Weekly Staff had its tentacles everywhere, keeping tabs on the Utah Warriors dropping out, a BIG ESPN/MLR announcement, the USA Eagles losing ugly, and a Windy City jammed with ruggers... Featured guest Tom Kindley, GM of the 3-peat Champion New England Free Jacks, shares his thoughts on much of the above, plus the pressures of the new roster rules, tampering charges, his unprecedented/humane advertising of players and expectations of a 4-peat (or whatever that is).

This week on The Pod, Jim, Goodey, Bigs dive into a massive opening weekend of the Quilter Nations Series — red cards, redemptions, and peroxide-blond hair. England made it eight wins on the bounce with a dominant bench-inspired victory over Australia, with Borthwick building his own “Bomb Squad.” Ireland meanwhile, were left reeling after a controversial red card and second-half collapse against the All Blacks in Chicago, while Scotland and South Africa both flexed with huge wins over the USA and Japan respectively.

At Soldier Field, the All Blacks and Ireland combined for what could generously be described as a slow-motion car crash — a stop–start slog dominated by a pedantic referee, an eye-rolling red card, and enough resets to make you question your life choices. It was as attractive as… well, something deeply unattractive. Somehow, the All Blacks eventually clawed their way out of the mud and Ireland's grasp to win, but by then, most viewers were emotionally bruised and spiritually broken. Over in Twickenham, England pummelled the Wallabies with typical English enthusiasm for suffering — helped along by a peroxide-blonde prodigy who has everyone from pundits to your nan saying “this kid is special” with alarming confidence. And at Wembley, the Springboks reduced Japan to rugby confetti in front of about twelve people and a seagull. Grab a beer and enjoy

The ARP crew dive into Tadgh Beirne's red card, whether Tupaea and Fainga'anuku could be the future All Blacks midfield pairing band what that would mean for Jordie Barrett.They break down whether Scotland will finally knock over the All Blacks, after a couple of close calls, and how the Springboks continue to innovate before their massive showdown against France. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Tadgh Beirne's red card lit the fuse this weekend, and while most of us were still debating intent versus accident, BBBB was already pledging his undying defence of the man. We ask whether a Barrett‑less All Blacks might actually be the better version. Meanwhile, SaFM continues to smoulder — is it still flames or just smoke and mirrors? Two aerial 50/50s had everyone split down the middle, Kolbe's solidity was put under the microscope, and the big questions loom: Is Quan Horn already a better bet than Andries Coetzee, should Pat Lambie still be the Boks' first‑choice 10 (yes, Ant went there), and was Faz completely mad to back Doris?

Which England player is compared to an annoying little brother? Ugo, Danny and Chris praise England's gameplan against Australia and heap praise on Sale's Tom Roebuck. Was it a red? Should it have even been a yellow? We debate the highly controversial Tadhg Beirne dismissal in Chicago and what went wrong for Ireland in the final 20 minutes as the All Blacks avenged their 2016 loss. We also discuss Antoine Dupont's new Toulouse deal and look ahead to this weekend's matches as the Steve Tandy regime begins. Plus, who should be in the frame for World Player of the Year?

As Ireland square up to the All Blacks at the weekend, we are all New Zealand this week, podcasting from the edge of the world, Richie McCaw's old stomping Christchurch, New Zealand. We explore why the world's richest men are turning NZ's quiet and beautiful South Island into their apocalypse insurance policy. Peter Thiel has bought hundreds of acres near Lake Wānaka, joining a wave of tech billionaires building bunkers at the bottom of the planet. They call it resilience; it looks a lot like retreat. From Victorian settlers fleeing moral decay to modern tech evangelists escaping the society they built, New Zealand has always drawn utopians convinced the world is ending somewhere else. We trace the country's shift from colonial outpost to libertarian life raft, unpacking The Sovereign Individual, the book that shaped Silicon Valley's doomsday economics. A journey through empire, ideology, and the strange new faith that the future belongs only to those who can afford to escape. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
