Our first guest is Ewen McKenzie, who boasts the rare distinction of being both Victorian-educated and a Wallabies world cup winner.   Ewen talks us through his time in the Scotch College rugby program, how he was picked for Victorian schoolboys rugby honours and even representing Harlequins in the Dewar Shield.   Later we reflect on 1991, the big group stage win over Wales at Cardiff Arms Park, the charm of the stadia in the Welsh regions during the group stages and the successive victories over Ireland, New Zealand and England to take the crown.   We finish off hearing about the relief of finally getting one over the Crusaders in the 2011 Super Rugby final.   Our next guest will be Welsh Rugby Union CEO Abi Tierney, who has a fascinating backstory and tells us about the uniqueness of the Welsh regions, the passion of a full house at Millenium Stadium and the charm of head coach Warren Gatland.   DON'T MISS: Wallabies v Wales preview dinner with special guests, Wallabies coach Joe Schmidt & Wales coach Warren Gatland. 10 July at the Olympic Room, Melbourne Cricket Ground.    https://www.rugbyclubvic.com/event-details/wallabies-v-wales-test-match-preview-dinner

Ballinasloe's Noel Mannion will be inducted into the Medtronic Galway Sports Stars Hall of Fame on January 19th at the Galway Bay Hotel. The rugby legend scored one of Ireland's greatest-ever tries against Wales in Cardiff Arms Park in 1989, and also went over the whitewash twice against Japan in the 1991 World Cup. As well as representing Connacht 34 times, he also was part of the Galway senior football panel in 1987, winning a Connacht medal and playing against Cork in that year's semi-final. After hearing the news, Noel chatted to Galway Bay FM's Darren Kelly. == The 'Over The Line' weekend preview show broadcasts every Friday evening from 7pm on Galway Bay FM.

She may not have lifted the World Cup last year, but her words after the final (and everything she's given the game before and since) have lifted a nation, so join Scaz, Mo & Elma to say ‘toodle-pip' & ‘cheerio' to the woman of the moment; Sarah Hunter. She made it down from her ‘Leaving Do' in Newcastle (AKA England Vs Scotland) to have a chin wag with two of her oldest pals. They re-live all the big, bad, and brilliant moments, from the first cap to the last dance of a captain who's led the Red Roses for so many years. Mo struggles to find the words to describe Sunter, or much else for that matter, for the entire 80 minutes and Hannah Botterman's attempt to not be the centre of attention is given a whole lot of air time. The girls also celebrate Wales' record crowd at Cardiff Arms Park and look ahead to another round of fixtures. Quite frankly, you should be ‘itching at the bits' to get your ears around this one.

In this special episode of the Daily, Chris takes a trip to memory lane (and Newport) to relive THAT try, 50 years on. 27th January 1973 was the day, the Barbarians and New Zealand the teams, and Cardiff Arms Park the venue, as Sir Gareth Edwards scored one of the most famous tries in rugby history, in one of the sport's most famous matches. With the help of Edwards and three other GOATS – Willie John McBride, JPR Williams and Mike Gibson – we discuss everything from Phil Bennett's sidestep to John Dawes' dummy to Edwards' brilliant finish, and hear more about the context of the match as the feted British and Irish Lions of 1971 reunited to face the All Blacks in what was billed as the unofficial “Fifth Test”.

In this episode, Jeannette talks to the entrepreneur and rugby star Paul Thorburn, who played 300 matches for Neath and 37 international matches for Wales, 10 of them as captain. He holds the record for the longest successful kick in an international test match. He gained the record during the 1986 Five Nations Championship at Cardiff Arms Park against Scotland. His penalty kick measured exactly 64.2 metres. He explains the role that having a winning mindset had in his sporting success and how he has applied what he learned while playing rugby to the world of business. Paul shares the details of his journey through life, so far. Including, how despite initially failing his A levels he resat and passed them so that he could attend Swansea university. There he got access to high-level coaching, which enabled him to excel at the sport he loved. Paul also explains how he prepared himself to become a successful entrepreneur and business consultant once his sporting career was over.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Being in the right place at the right time plays a role in a successful career. But you have to recognise and take the opportunities. Team sport benefits people in many ways. You form strong, long-lasting relationships with your teammates. Having a winning mindset only produces results if you are disciplined about your training and preparation. Analysing your performance is an essential component of personal growth. Put any personal differences with team members aside and respect them. Employing experts to take care of different aspects of your business is vital. If you have an aspiration, go for it. Be true to yourself and give people the respect you would like to receive yourself.   BEST MOMENTS ‘You make your own luck. ´ ‘Neath was the first (rugby) club to start having individual performance analysis.' ‘I apply the same (business) principles, regardless of my clients sector. A business is a business.'   This is the perfect time to get focused on what YOU want to really achieve in your business, career, and life. It's never too late to be BRAVE and BOLD and unlock your inner BRILLIANCE.

He spent his childhood in various RAF Stations across England and was educated in a boarding school. He went on to study Microbiology at Swansea University. At that stage in his life, his main focus was his rugby career. He played 300 matches for Neath and went on to play for the Welsh national team 37 times. Including captaining the Welsh team on 10 occasions. After graduating he started work with a security business, but within 18 months then moved into a sector to use my qualifications and I started working for Glaxo Pharmaceuticals in a business development role, promoting their range of pharmaceutical products to the GPs and Pharmacists in South Wales. In 1991, he joined the Welsh Development Agency (WDA). A Government funded quango, tasked with attracting investment projects into Wales. His role, as one of the Project Managers, was to assist in securing foreign direct investment into Wales – these organisations included automotive component manufacturers, consumer electronics manufacturers, biotechnology companies, service industries and financial institutions. After a 5-year career with the WDA, John was then appointed Tournament Director for the 1999 Rugby World Cup Tournament, my role here was to deliver the World's largest International Rugby Tournament. This one was the first one to be staged following the decision to make rugby a professional sport. Wales was the official host Nation, but the 42 International matches were spread across Wales, England, Scotland, Ireland, and France, with the Opening Ceremony, the Opening match and the Final taking place at the New Millennium Stadium. As Tournament Director, John´s role was to put the event together, delivering the venues, training grounds, the hotels for participants and all the Officials, the team, and the official logistics programme, including overseas travel for the Teams, Officials; the medical provision; the Ceremonies and Official functions during the 7-week event. This was a 4-year contract, which ended in March 2000, on completion of the Tournament reports and reconciliation of the Tournament finances and distribution of the monies to the hosting Unions.  After 4 years working as an Executive Search and Selection Consultant, recruiting senior Execs into Public and Private sector roles, John returned to the professional world of rugby. He joined the Welsh Rugby Union as a Special Projects Manager, a role which included working on the pre-event preparations for the 2007 Rugby World Cup, and assisting the Official Hosts, France in delivering the event. As well as overusing the Commercial programme for the Welsh Rugby Union, securing sponsorship for International events, as well sponsorship for the domestic rugby programme in Wales, also securing and managing the Licensing programme – merchandise etc. In 2006, John was appointed Strategic Development Manager for the Ospreys, one of the professional rugby clubs in Wales. In essence, he oversaw the commercial programme for the club, securing sponsorship, and all other income generation activities. In 2010, John left the world of rugby, setting up his own Business Development consultancy, where he works alongside a handful of diverse organisations, assisting them in securing contracts with private and/or public sector clients, working in the construction, financial services, telecoms, and recruitment arenas. John is also the Secretary of Cardiff Business Club, one of the longest established clubs in the UK, which has HRH The Prince of Wales as its patron.

We look ahead to the weekend's quarter finals and hear from former Samoa scrum half Tu Nu'uali'itia who reached two World Cup quarter finals with the Pacific Islanders in the 1990s. In 1991 he was part of the squad that famously beat Wales at Cardiff Arms Park and in 1995 he scored a try in the quarter final against the eventual winners South Africa.

In 1991, Western Samoa pulled off one of the biggest upsets in Rugby World Cup history when they beat Wales 16-13 in front of a shocked home crowd at Cardiff Arms Park. The victory by the unfancied and under-resourced Western Samoan side thrust the tiny Pacific nation into the global spotlight. Winger Timo Tagaloa relives this historic win with Emma Barnaby. The programme is a Whistledown Production. PHOTO: Welsh players try to tackle Pat Lam of Western Samoa (Simon Bruty/Allsport/Getty Images)

This week's Cardiff Rugby Life Podcast catches up on the latest Cardiff Blues news as five players sign new contracts at the Cardiff Arms Park, and a new Academy coaching setup starts to take place. The new coaching announcements in the last few weeks have included a lot of former players, so I ask if it is jobs for the boys? Or are Cardiff Blues in fact being very shrewd? Elsewhere there's some analysis of Wales' victory over Argentina in last week's first test, and a live reaction to Warren Gatland's team selection for this Saturday's second test, as Seb Davies is messed about by Team Wales. Finally, there was disappointment for Wales U20 on Tuesday, but I try and find the positives ahead of their final Junior World Championship game on Sunday.

After a fitful season last time out Ged and Dan ask whether Cardiff Blues will go better this year? Can they turn Cardiff Arms Park into a fortress? Is there enough depth in the front five? Can the youngsters make a difference? See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
