Under the leadership of captain Andrew Slack and coach Alan Jones, the Wallabies faced formidable opponents, losing to Cardiff, Llanelli, Ulster, and South of Scotland. However, their victories against the Home Unions were legendary, making them the first Australian team to achieve the Grand Slam.The Road to Victory: Dominating the Home UnionsThe Wallabies' triumphs were characterized by their defensive prowess, conceding only one try in the internationals. They defeated England by 16 points, Ireland by seven, and Wales by 19, showcasing their offensive strength with four tries. The final victory against Scotland was a resounding 37-12, highlighting the team's dominance.David Campese: The Rise of a Rugby LegendCentral to this narrative is David Campese, a 19-year-old winger of Italian descent. His meteoric rise began in the local Queanbeyan side, the Whites, and quickly led to his international debut. Campese's playing style, marked by the "Campese Goosestep" or "Struggletown Shuffle," set him apart. His background in Queanbeyan, a town known for its immigrant population and resilience, shaped his unique approach to the game.South African Rugby: A Parallel of TransformationMuch like Campese and the Ellas' impact on Australian rugby, South African rugby has undergone significant transformation. Players like Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu, with diverse backgrounds and exceptional talent, are reshaping the sport. Feinberg-Mngomezulu's journey, influenced by his grandfather's legacy as an anti-apartheid activist, mirrors the broader changes within South African rugby.The Evolution of the SpringboksUnder coaches like Rassie Erasmus and Jacques Nienaber, the Springboks have embraced diversity and talent from all walks of life. This inclusive approach has led to remarkable successes, including back-to-back World Cup wins. The integration of players from various backgrounds and the celebration of their unique skills have strengthened the team.From Struggle to TriumphThe stories of the Wallabies and the Springboks highlight the essence of struggle and triumph in sports. These narratives remind us that behind every victory lies a journey filled with challenges, resilience, and transformation. As the world of rugby continues to evolve, it celebrates not only the athletic prowess but also the diverse and rich histories that each player brings to the field.Donate to The Luke Alfred Show on Patreon.Get my book: Vuvuzela Dawn: 25 Sporting Stories that Shaped a New Nation.Get full written episodes of the show a day early on Substack.Check out The Luke Alfred Show on YouTube and Facebook.

Growing up, like most kids, I had three heroes: Mel Gibson, Greg Norman, and Phil Kearns.   All Aussies. All champions in their own way in their chosen field.   To celebrate our 100th Profitable Farmer Podcast episode, it gives me great pleasure to introduce Wallaby great Phil Kearns (OAM).   Phil is without question one of Australia's greatest ever Rugby Union players. With 67 tests as #2 for the Australian Wallabies,10 as Captain and 73 games for the NSW Waratahs, Phil was a key contributor to 3 successful Rugby World Cup campaigns, including the memorable 1991 and 1999 victories over England and New Zealand, respectively.   Beyond Rugby, Phil is a thoughtful, composed and genuine leader. A true gentleman of sport, business and philanthropy.   I was lucky enough to meet Phil recently when he opened the new clubhouse at the local Cootamundra Rugby grounds. The time he openly shared with my family, the kids of the Club and their families was incredible.   His passion for Australian Rugby, grass-roots footy, local communities, and youth development is inspiring. His contribution to the game of Rugby and its future in Australia is significant.   Enjoy this conversation where we connect and discuss: the past and future Australian Rugby landscape; the process to win the recent Rugby World Cup bid, what this means for Australian Rugby; his career as a Wallaby; and his take on leadership and how to get the best for & from individuals and teams.   There is always so much we can learn from spending time with people like Phil. His outlook is clear, concise and refreshing.   Again, I hope you enjoy this interview just as much as I did recording it.   Thank you, Phil, and congratulations on an incredible career and contribution.   Thank you, everyone, for being part of the Profitably Farmer journey – bring on our second century!

Former Utah Warriors assistant coach Shawn Pittman was thrown into the deep end in January, tasked with taking over as interim manager of Utah's professional rugby franchise following the sudden resignation of Australian Wallabies legend Chris Latham. No experience, no training, no warning. Sink or swim in his first full-time head coaching job in Major League Rugby. Pittman -- and the Warriors -- chose to swim, surging into the Top 4 of the 12-team league and qualifying for Utah's first playoff berth since the league's inaugural season of 2018. Now the full-time manager rather than a caretaker, Pittman reflected on the past nine months in charge, and what he wants of the club moving forward in this exclusive conversation with KSL.com.

I am so looking forward to this conversation covering excellence in sport and business.We are proudly sponsored by S A Partners, a world-leading business transformation consultancy.Key Takeaway - Sport and business share commonalities in achieving excellence. When you think about it, both involve humans, both are competitive situations, both are won or lost by teams. The important aspect for me in business is, have we helped frontline teams form their field of play, the reason for playing, challenging goals, and visual scoreboard as any team would have in sport? If we can help these teams align this field of play to the organisation's strategic direction, that is powerful. Thanks again for everything you have done in sport Glenn and for continuing the search for business excellence.Links Brad is proud to support many Australian businesses.

We hear from the first Wallabies player to come out as gay, Dan Palmer. Last year he wrote a powerful column in the Sydney Herald saying that his ‘own death felt preferable to anyone finding out that I was gay’. Since this he has had hundreds of people messaging from around the world to say they have encountered similar problems with their sexuality. A few months on he speaks to Caroline about his decision to come out, his battle with his own sexuality and being a gay sportsman. We also speak to the first woman to officiate at the Super Bowl. Sarah Thomas made history as a down judge when the Tampa Bay Bucaneers beat the Kansas City Chiefs and began her officiating career in 1996. Sarah will tell us what it is like to be a history maker, how it feels to be at the pinnacle of her career and how she is blazing a trail for many more women to come.
