Podcast appearances and mentions of Ellis Park

Director Justin Kurzel has crafted a filmography built on exploring the impact of trauma and violence on a nation. Whether it be his excoriating debut film Snowtown or the acts of cautionary storytelling with Nitram and The Order, Kurzel's work questions how violence and trauma lingers in our bodies, our minds, and in our lands. That's a notion that he explores with impressive strength with his first foray into documentary filmmaking, Ellis Park.There's catharsis in Ellis Park, partially because of Warren Ellis and his healing violin, but – as the man says himself – his presence is minimal compared to the presence of Femke and the conservationists. Yet, when paired with Kurzel and editor Nick Fenton, they collectively bring light to a horrifying trade that scars the environment. I'm shaken by Ellis Park because of its presentation of trauma, but equally so for its depiction of empathy, consideration, and support.This is, oddly, my first time talking to Justin Kurzel. Having listened to and read countless interviews by him, I was aware that I would be engaging with someone who is a deeply empathetic soul, yet I was still left disarmed by his connection to his openness about his connection to his work, his family, and to the art of cinema.To support the film, Warren Ellis and Justin Kurzel will be running Q&A sessions around the nation. All of the details are in the show notes, but make sure to pick up tickets in advance when the film kicks off with a virtual Q&A with Warren Ellis at Perth's Luna Leederville cinemas on 5 June, concluding with a Sydney Film Festival and Vivid Sydney exclusive event on 8 June at the State Theatre.

Bulls coach Jake White is keeping his options open and will consider Willie le Roux at flyhalf for Saturday's United Rugby Championship clash against the Stormers in Cape Town. White sang Le Roux's praises on 'To The Last Drop', highlighting the Bok fullback's match-winning performance against the Lions at Ellis Park. White said he knows what the player offers the Bulls and that they need him to go into 'that position'. Stormers director of rugby John Dobson told Brenden and Liam it is difficult to plan not knowing where Le Roux will be deployed on Saturday. White was clear the Bulls are every bit as desperate as the Stormers for a positive result and is relishing the chance to unleash his troops in front of a crowd in excess of 40 000. Brenden Nel and Liam Del Carme also look ahead to this weekend's matches in the Six Nations, predicting wins for France, Italy and Ireland respectively.

‘To the Last Drop' is back for 2025! Brenden Nel and Liam Del Carme kick off the year by breaking down South Africa's early Champions Cup exit and looking ahead to an action-packed weekend in the URC.

And of course, Brenden and Liam drop their predictions for this weekend's URC battles. Tune in for insight, banter, and plenty of rugby talk to kick off the year!

Will the All Blacks be able to bounce back in their next match against the Springboks?  Last weekend saw the All Blacks defeated 27-31 at Ellis Park, the South Africans taking the home ground win.  They'll be looking to turn things around this weekend, when they face them again at Cape Town Stadium.  Coach Scott Robertson told Mike Hosking that it's going to be another hell of a test.  He said that even though it's at a different stadium this time, it's still going to be as fierce as it ever was.  “The Springboks, you know, when they roll up, they roll up.”  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

RNZ sports reporter Jamie Wall spoke to Lisa Owen about the aftermath of the All Black's first test against the Springboks over the weekend, where the response to the Haka at Ellis Park has been under scrutiny.

The Springboks toppled the All Blacks at Ellis Park in Johannesburg in a tense, tight affair but it's all to play for in Cape Town as both teams will come out firing. Join the gang as they discuss all things Springboks and All Blacks, as they get ready to watch the blockbuster of a match at Cape Town Stadium this weekend. Also discussed are Ant's grievances with the entire nation of New Zealand, as salty Kiwis come out of the woodwork, exciting plans for future All Blacks tours to South Africa and vice-versa, and some murmurings of the tail end of the Currie Cup. Music by @monstroid, 80s TV Show.

The All Blacks assistant coach Jason Ryan is pleased South African Rugby officials have given themselves an "uppercut" and apologised for the disruption to the haka before the hosts' Rugby Championship win at Ellis Park on Sunday morning.

There were a few raised eyebrows as the All Blacks' pre-match haka was drowned out at Johannesburg's Ellis Park. The team's rendition of Kapa O Pango was interrupted by chanting - and music, pyrotechnics and a flyover from an Emirates Airlines A380 jet. Former All Black Steve Gordon says this felt disrespectful to the All Blacks. "I think they really overstepped the mark. Rugby's built on tradition and the culture - the game's bigger than any team or individual. I think they overstepped it there." LISTEN ABOVE  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Coach Scott Robertson says the All Blacks will seek an explanation from World Rugby after the referees failed to pick up a knock on in the lead up to a Springboks try in yesterday morning's test at Ellis Park, which South African won 31-27.

In an effort to showcase Gauteng's integrated urban transport, the Passenger Rail Agency of South Africa (PRASA) and the Gautrain Management Agency (Gautrain) have teamed up to transport fans to this weekend's Springboks and All Blacks test match.“We are showcasing the fact that here in Gauteng, commuters can walk or take a bus or taxi to a PRASA or Gautrain Station, and board a train to get to the Emirates Park Stadium, via Ellis Park Train Station,” Minister of Transport Barbara Creecy said on Sunday.

The All Blacks are embracing their Johannesburg welcome as they prepare to play at one of the toughest rugby venues on Sunday morning.   Several members of the playing squad and staff are on their first visit to South Africa.   New Zealand coach Scott Robertson played in the 46-40 test defeat at Ellis Park in 2000, but secured the 2017 Super title at the venue as Crusaders mentor.  Beauden Barrett told Mike Hosking that they haven't been overtraining early in the week, but by the time they hit the ground on Sunday, they'll be ready to go.  He said that the game will likely go right up until the 80th minute, and the win will go to whoever is going to work the hardest.   LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There's two key starting changes to the All Blacks side set to face the Springboks in Johannesburg on Sunday. Sam Cane starts his first test since last year's World Cup final - a match in which he was sent off against the same opposition. A thumb injury to Dalton Papali'i means the former captain is elevated from the reserves. All Blacks assistant coach Jason Holland says Sam Cane's been training hard over the last couple of weeks. "He's been looking really sharp for the last couple of weeks in training - there's no better man to have in your group when you're going to Ellis Park."

All Blacks great Sir John Kirwan says Leon MacDonald's coaching future will have to be overseas after exiting as the All Blacks assistant coach yesterday.  In a shock move, New Zealand Rugby announced MacDonald was stepping down from the role under All Blacks head coach Scott Robertson five tests into the season, and just a week out from their Rugby Championship test against South Africa.  “It's unbelievable...incredible courage I believe on behalf of both of them,” Kirwan told the Mike Hosking Breakfast on Newstalk ZB.  “If it's not working out because the status quo would be probably stay there, finish the season. But for them to move on this quicker, I think it's the best thing for the team.”  ‘Some people just can't be assistants'  Kirwan said there were probably two main reasons for MacDonald to walk away from the role.  “Probably a lack of philosophy around how they are attacking. Once you don't agree on how they're going to attack it's pretty hard to mend,” he told Hosking.  “And the second thing is, I think some people just can't be assistants as well. Leon's been a head coach now for a while, and so it's hard to sometimes go back to being assistant.  Regardless of the timing of his exit, MacDonald will now be highly sought after by any side in need of a coach.  At Super Rugby level, MacDonald led the Blues in 69 games during his four-year tenure, for 45 wins, 23 defeats and a draw.  The Herald understands MacDonald turned down an approach from Scotland in order to sign on with Robertson and the All Blacks.  “I think he'd probably have to go offshore, now. There's no jobs left in New Zealand,” Kirwan added.  The All Blacks face the Springboks at Ellis Park next Sunday in their first meeting since the Rugby World Cup final. That is followed by a second test a week later in Cape Town. Kirwan said losing a coach midseason shouldn't be a major disruption for the players.  “I don't think the players will be affected too much. I think they'll just carry on. I don't think he's going to be replaced, so it'll be one less voice.  “He's [Robertson's] got enough people in there to fill the gap. I just think they'll carry on.”  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
