Springbok-hulpafrigter, Deon Davids, sê die Barbarians se unieke identiteit en oorvloed van wêreldklas-talent maak van hulle 'n bedreiging wat enige internasionale span kan laat struikel. Die Bokke sal Saterdag in Gqeberha teen die Barbarians uitdraf, wat die All Blacks-legende, TJ Perenara, en die Suid-Afrikaans gebore Skotse vleuel, Duhan van der Merwe, insluit.

One of only a handful of three-time guests on the show, Professor Nic Gill returns for another insightful conversation. After more than two decades with the New Zealand All Blacks Rugby Team, guiding one of the most successful teams in world sport through over 240 Test matches and more than 200 victories, Nic is embarking on his next chapter in elite performance:moving to the United States as Vice President of Health and Performance for the Baltimore Ravens NFL Team.From his first appearance in 2021, "Rugby Head Strength and Conditioning Coach for the NZ All Blacks," through the follow-up episode, "A Week in the Life of an All Blacks Rugby Player," Nic is back to discuss his latest and perhaps greatest challenge yet. Having spent a career at the pinnacle of rugby performance, he now steps into the world of American football, embracing the uncertainty, excitement, and opportunity that come with leading performance in one of the NFL's premier organizations.At his core, Nic operates on a simple but powerful philosophy: performance is built on trust, relationships, and doing the basics exceptionally well. He rejects over-complication, emphasising that motivation isn't created by coaches—it already exists within athletes, driven by identity, purpose, and environment.Whether pushing himself through extreme challenges like 24-hour Wattbike records for charity, Ironman races or guiding elite players, he consistently chooses discomfort, using challenge as fuel for growth and purpose.That mindset underpins both his coaching and his life decisions. Leaving the All Blacks after two decades wasn't driven by necessity, but by a deliberate move toward uncertainty and challenge. For Nic, growth lives on the edge of discomfort—where fear and excitement coexist.His move to the NFL represents more than a career shift; it's a continuation of a philosophy he has lived for years: walk toward the pressure, simplify the process, and help people perform when it matters most.I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did. Gilly is one of the most humble, authentic, and driven men I've ever had on the show, and I'm proud to call him a friend. Every time we sit down, I walk away having learned something. From the All Blacks to the Baltimore Ravens, this is a conversation about challenge, leadership, family, and having the courage to step into the unknown. AND hopefully a Super Bowl Win!!Another super-powerful episode—sit back and enjoy.

The Chiefs are taking on the Crusaders in Hamilton tonight, followed by the Hurricanes and “lucky loser” Blues' clash in Wellington tomorrow.

He told Heather du Plessis-Allan this is the first time in thirty years four New Zealand teams have been in the semi-finals. “Every year it throws us something new, and this year, I actually, as an All Blacks fan, I feel pretty excited that we've got four teams in the semis.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Rugby: Die Springbok-hulpafrigter Tony Brown het 'n tweejaarkontrak vanaf 2028 gesluit met Nieu-Seeland, vir wie hy tussen 1999 en 2001 18 toetse gespeel het. Sy kontrak met die Bokke eindig na volgende jaar se Wêreldbeker-toernooi in Australië. Dave Rennie en die res van sy All Blacks-afrigtingspan is tans net tot die Wêreldbeker-toernooi gekontrakteer. Die uitvoerende hoof van Nieu-Seeland Rugby, Steve Lancaster, sê Brown is 'n wêreldklas-afrigter:

Tony Brown is set trade the bottle green and gold of the Springboks for the much more familiar black of home. The current South Africa attack coach has signed on as an All Blacks assistant coach for the two years after the 2027 Rugby World Cup. The All Blacks will still face Brown as South Africa's current attack coach during the Greatest Rivalry tour this year, and in a likely World Cup quarterfinal next year if both teams win their pool. Former Highlander and Māori All Black Joey Wheeler told Heather du Plessis-Allan that bringing, arguably, one of our most innovative and creative coaches back into New Zealand rugby is a master stroke by NZR. He says regardless of who the head coach will be following the Rugby World Cup, knowing Brown, he'll be able to work with anyone. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Fergus Slattery, one of Ireland's greatest rugby players, has died at the age of 77.In a statement, Blackrock College RFC announced the news this morning, hailing their former flanker as a “Lion of Lions”.Born in 1949, Slattery attended Blackrock College and won the 1966 Leinster Schools Senior Cup, before joining the club as a 17-year-old and excelling in senior rugby.He went on to win 61 caps for Ireland, captaining the country and winning the Five Nations Championship in 1974 and Triple Crowns in 1982 and 1985 as part of a legendary back-row with Willie Duggan and John O'Driscoll. He was also part of the 1979 series win in Australia.Slattery is also a legendary Lion and was called up to the tours of New Zealand in 1971 and South Africa in 1974 where he played in the Test series win.He was also a key part in the Barbarians' most famous try against the All Blacks in 1973. In total, he played 18 times for the invitational club.After retirement, Slattery remained heavily involved in rugby through his media work with the BBC and with Blackrock College where he was a keen proponent of the sport's amateur values.In recent years, his family disclosed that Slattery suffered from dementia, revealing the scale of his illness in an interview with The Sunday Times.He is survived by his wife Margo, daughter Nikki, son Cameron and his grandchildren.Here is former Ireland and Lion back row Slattery speaking to our own Nathan Murphy ahead of the Lions tour of 2017, and about his memories of being a Tourist back in the early 1970s.Become a member and subscribe at offtheball.com/join

Kieran Read is one of the greatest All Blacks of the professional era. A two-time Rugby World Cup winner, four-time Super Rugby champion and former All Blacks captain, Kieran built a career defined by consistency, leadership and an incredible work ethic.From a typical Kiwi childhood in Papakura, to representing Counties in both rugby and cricket, Kieran's path to the top wasn't as straightforward as many would think. He wasn't a player who came through every representative system, and by his own admission was a shy kid who often kept to himself. Yet through hard work, resilience and a constant desire to improve, he became one of the most respected leaders New Zealand rugby has ever produced.Some parts that stood out for me in this episode were…* Why cricket was arguably his best sport growing up and how close he came to pursuing it professionally* The moment rugby went from being something he loved to something he wanted to chase seriously* Making New Zealand Secondary Schools despite not being part of the traditional rugby pathway* Playing 49 consecutive games at the start of his Crusaders career* Becoming Canterbury captain at just 22 years old* His memories of winning Rugby World Cups in 2011 and 2015* Taking over from Richie McCaw as All Blacks captain and learning to lead in his own way* The sacrifices that come with professional rugby and being away from family for long periods* The leadership lessons he's taken from rugby into business and life after retirementKieran is one of those rare people whose achievements speak for themselves, yet remains incredibly humble. This episode is packed with stories from one of rugby's greatest careers, along with plenty of lessons on leadership, resilience and personal growth.Let us know what you thought of this episode in the comments
