Pita Ahki is living proof that careers aren't always built in a straight line.From struggling for opportunities in New Zealand and watching contracts dry up, to being told by Toulouse doctors that he had a “bad knee” and might not even get signed — Ahki's journey could have gone very differently. Instead, he backed himself, took the gamble, and went on to become a 5x Top 14 champion and 2x Champions Cup winner in one of the toughest competitions in world rugby.In this episode of What a Lad, Pita opens up about the tough years at the Blues and Hurricanes, asking Super Rugby teams for any opportunity just to stay in the system, nearly walking away from the game after failing a medical in France, and the sliding doors moment that changed everything.In this episode, we cover…- Growing up in Auckland and the Kelston Boys brotherhood- Making NZ U20s and starting NPC straight out of school- The struggles of injury battles while trying to crack it- Asking Super Rugby teams for wider training — and getting nothing- Taking a six-month deal at Connacht just to stay alive in the game- Flying to Toulouse, signing a pre-contract, and being told he had a “bad knee”- Nearly walking away from rugby - Starting a Top 14 final and chasing that feeling year after year- Winning 5 Top 14 titles and 2 Champions Cups- Life in France, the culture, and playing with Antoine Dupont- Representing Tonga at a Rugby World Cup- Why he returned to the blues- And of course his memory of the classic Pita Pit prank!This episode is a deep dive into resilience, growth, sacrifice, and what it really takes to turn rejection into legacy. It's honest, reflective, and full of perspective from a man who's seen both sides of the game. Pita is a champion man, such a legend and it's awesome seeing him back out there in Super Rugby!

FC Cincinnati open the 2026 season with two convincing wins, starting with a dominant 4–0 road victory over O&M FC in the CONCACAF Champions Cup, their third straight year in the competition, behind goals from Tom Barlow, Kévin Denkey, and a brace from Ayoub Jabbari. FCC then returned home to a sold-out TQL Stadium to defeat Atlanta United on MLS Matchday 1, extending their unbeaten run in home openers under Pat Noonan with late goals from Denkey and Nick Hagglund, though the night was shaped by Evander's early exit with hamstring tightness. We break down the performances, tactical takeaways, and key stats, discuss the outlook on Evander's status, and preview what's next with the Champions Cup return leg at TQL and an upcoming MLS trip to face Minnesota United FC.

In today's episode, Liam revives a prior series from the beginning of the podcast, Woso Weekly, covering the latest news in women's soccer with insightful analysis.He covers the USWNT's dominant January camp, as the side rolled to back-to-back shutout wins, while showcasing the next wave of talent in Emma Hayes' evolving player pool. He talks about how even with a heavily rotated and relatively inexperienced squad, the U.S. still delivered, as first-time goal scorers and USWNT senior debuts highlighted the team's growing depth. LDG named players who stood out, like Trinity Rodman, who stood out as both a consistent goal scorer and emerging leader, while performances from players like Ally Sentnor, Reilyn Turner, Emma Sears, and Croix Bethune underlined how competitive the forward and attacking midfield picture is becoming ahead of the SheBelieves Cup and World Cup qualifying later this year.The episode also talks about the broader landscape of the women's game, including the inaugural FIFA Women's Champions Cup, and what the competition reveals about commercial progress and lingering challenges. While FIFA's record-setting prize money signals real financial investment, which poses long-term benefits for the stability of the sport, as the prize money will be reinvested into the sport, there were some disappointments, as LDG highlights, that raised questions about sustainability and execution. He chats about Gotham's loss to Corinthians and Arsenal's dominance, adding context to a tournament that reflects both how far the women's club game has come and how much work remains for the future.Lastly, he talks about Crystal Dunn's retirement and Trinity Rodman's record-breaking contract with the Washington Spirit. As mentioned in the episode, to hear more about Trinity Rodman's move, we did a deep-dive on the Trinity Rodman contract negotiations with the Washington Spirit.Thank you for listening!
