The 33 have been named. Last night in Upper Hutt the athletes charged with winning the World Cup were announced. 33 wāhine from across our fine motu were named as the Black Ferns to carry on New Zealand's outstanding record at the Women's Rugby World Cup. There were disappointments, notably the omission of one of the stars of the last tournament, the irrepressible Ruby Tui. I'm told Ruby was celebrating the loudest, cheering on the women picked, not sulking over her non selection. This says a lot to me about the sisterhood, the whanau, the strong bond between these women. And they'll need it. Back in the halcyon days, the Ferns were the gold standard. They dominated the game, winning six titles. The first two world tournaments, won by the USA and England, didn't have official recognition from the IRB (now World Rugby), but they have since been retrospectively given official status. In 1998 the Ferns became champions of the world. They have only been beaten once in the comp since then, and that was at the hands of England in 2014. Last time out they shook up the world at home, riding their luck past France in the semi then beating the English in a pulsating final at a chocka Eden Park. Joanah Ngan Woo was the hero that day, swiping a line out ball on her own line to stop the English surge in its tracks. An astonishing end to a spectacular tournament. The energy in the stadium was like nothing I have experienced in a big international rugby fixture. The testosterone that dominates All Black matches, the collective fear of defeat, the barely contained masculine rage didn't exist. It was pure joy. It was a rugby crowd as it should be. Let's hope that continues in England as New Zealand strut their stuff and win again. Not defend their title, win it all over again. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week on the KOKO Show we come to you from the glorious confines of the MJ Bale flagship store in Martin Place, Sydney. The lads are dressed to impress with some silky threads that lift the spirits and allow the human form to podcast like they have never podcasted before, all thanks to MJ Bale. We have arrived ladies and gentlemen, the first Test Match between the Lions and the Wallabies is soon upon us and the KOKO Crew couldn't be more up and about at the prospect of two great teams doing battle at Suncorp Stadium. To help us along this joyous journey, we have enlisted the help of two very special guests. The first has played over 90 caps for Wales and he was one of the brave men that took down the Wallabies in 2013, it is none other than Dr Jamie Roberts and the other is triple international, cross-code footy legend and rugby media's leading lady Allana Ferguson. Jamie joins the lads for the first half of the show to muse and discuss how both sides will shape up and prepare this week leading into the first Test. We discuss potential tactics, predicted sides and what the Lions will do to navigate this growing laundry list of injured players. Plus, ‘The King' sticks around to give us his ‘Perfect Pour' from the weekend just gone, all thanks to our headline sponsor Guinness, as well as playing a little game of ‘Which Lion Was it Anyway?'We have always said, when one guest leaves you replace them with someone better.

Whenever there's success at the top level of international rugby in New Zealand, more often than not there is one specific name involved. Known as the ‘Scrum Doctor', Mike Cron was an assistant coach for the All Blacks for more than 200 games, winning the 2011 and 2015 World Cups. He then came out of retirement in 2022 to join the Black Ferns, helping them win a world title as well, before shifting over to join the Wallabies. In the midst of all this, he's written a book: ‘Coach: Lessons from an All Black Legend'. Cron told Heather du Plessis-Allan that he's always had a thirst for knowledge, and found ideas from looking at other elite sports. “I've never been really interested in rugby coaching seminars,” he said. “They left me a bit bland, so to speak. Y'know, they just showed you a new drill or something.” Ballet and sumo are two sports he's pulled ideas from, saying the key is to go in with an open mind. “If you've got an open mind and you look and listen, there will be some, some bit of gold there for you.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
