Welcome back to the Pick and Go Podcast!The lads kick things off by reviewing the latest round of The Rugby Championship. New Zealand have once again retained the Bledisloe Cup, and Eden Park continues its reputation as an unshakable fortress. But it raises the question: should the Bledisloe really be a three-game series?Meanwhile, South Africa powered past Argentina in convincing fashion, looking more dangerous than ever. With only one round remaining, it's down to either South Africa or New Zealand to claim the Rugby Championship title, who will come out on top?The lads also dive into the final round of the NPC before the playoffs, where North Harbour are still chasing their first win of the season.

With the Bledisloe Cup decided for another year, but the return Test and The Rugby Championship still very much up in the air, Kiwi rugby journalist Jamie Wall joined Brett McKay and Harry Jones on The 8/9 Combo Rugby Podcast to dive deep into the fallout. While the result at Eden Park wasn't so surprising last weekend, the way the All Blacks closed the game out, and the way the Wallabies simultaneously killed off their best Bledisloe chance in many a year went against recent form lines and expectations. While Australian fans are still raging about refereeing decision, New Zealanders are just happy they didn't lose two games on the trot. The contrasts make for yet another Great Rugby Chat™. #rugby #rugbypodcast #89Combo #internationalrugby #Wallabies #TheRugbyChampionship, #Springboks, #AllBlacks, #LosPumas, #BledisloeCup 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.

The Bledisloe Cup will remain a New Zealand resident for another year at least, after the All Blacks' 33-24 victory over the Wallabies. While the win is a satisfying one for Coach Scott Robertson, the injury toll means the All Blacks will have to do a reshuffle for this weekend's rematch in Perth, which doubles as a potential Rugby Championship decider. Sports reporter Jamie Wall spoke to Lisa Owen.

This week, Dick blows the whistle on the TRC's scheduling shenanigans, accusing them of high tackle interference with the Women's RWC and AFL finals. It's a calendar clash of titanic proportions, and someone's getting yellow-carded. We scrum down on the age-old debate: Six Nations or TRC—which competition reigns supreme? Spoiler: it's less “crown jewel” and more “jewel heist,” depending on your hemisphere. The Lions did a thing—celebrated like Currie Cup champions at 80 minutes, then promptly remembered they're allergic to silverware. We unpack the collapse, the curse, and the cruel optimism. Meanwhile, New Zealand rugby might be going full haka-flameout, and Australia's eyeing the unthinkable double— breaking both the Eden Park and Bledisloe hoodoes. Is it a golden age or just fool's gold? Plus: the URC kicks off and our draft preview goes off the rails faster than a Bulls fan at altitude. Expect botched picks, bruised egos, and a few players who were drafted purely for their haircuts. Music by @monstroid, 80s TV Show.

Sometimes you need to make up or invoke far fetched hollywood movie plots or fairytales to try and translate some of the NRL's decision making; and in the case of the backflip on a would be Nicho Hynes finals missing hip drop charge, look no further than the 1999 Crime Thriller 'Double Jeopardy;' with Tommy Lee Jones and Ashley Judd basically explaining why a hip drop that's already been charged cant be charged twice, or in this case wasnt actually a hip drop in the first place. Don't worry, the movie didnt make a lot of sense either.It is finals time and our heroes reckon the Suns will scorch the fur off the Lions back at the Gabba, while the ultimate prize will be realised at the end of a Snoop Dogg inspired All-Victorian GF. The Wallabies will be without a veteran Nudgee College old boy for the Bledisloe and we think that's a bit average. So, James O'Connor, please tell Leicester to eat a big bowl of No Flakes and suit up, after you help dismantle the Pumas again and claim an unlikely rugby championship of course. Same to you Will Skelton, at 2 metres and change tall surely you can stand up/over your bosses at La Rochelle? We're busy trying to build an army like Rassie Erasmus did with the Springboks, only our will be better,NRL finals tips are locked in and thousands of timelines and permutations analysed. Beautiful minds come together as algorithms and calculations are written in white pen on windows overlooking the Princeton forecourt, and Ed Harris torments us with his supposedly non existent CIA agent. And like the imaginary little girl in that movie, the concept of the Panthers doing it all again NEVER GETS OLD.Life = Grapple x 100000000 + Digging it

Both sides are battling injuries heading into Game 2, but the win has allowed Joe Schmidt's side to dream of really challenging for the Rugby Championship... and maybe even the Bledisloe!Hosts: Christy Doran & Matt To'omua Hosted on Acast.

Tim Horan joined the show to recap an incredible third-test win by the Wallabies on the weekend against the British Lions, and what the rivarly means for Rugby. Horan told Peter Psaltis on 4BC Wide World of Sports "I think I don't really think we're competing against the AFL and NRL anymore, I just think we've got our own niche." "When the Wallabies play, the gold jersey stands up and I think we've carved out a nice little piece. Now the Wallabies just need to keep this momentum going and potentially have a crack at the Bledisloe." Horan continued.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
