With the rugby world taking a little break in the international calendar, Brett & Harry have taken this little window to revisit some of their favourite episodes from The Rugby Championship. This week, a look back at our TRC Post-Mortem following the Wallabies famous – infamous, for some – victory over the Springboks at Ellis Park in Johannesburg, snapping a streak that went back more than 60 years, and which has so far proved to be a high point for Australia in 2025.

It's the final round of The 2025 Rugby Championship this weekend, with a couple of key southern hemisphere matches to be played in Perth and, er… London? Brett & Harry ask the key questions for TRC Rd.6. Can the Wallabies square the Bledisloe Cup series in Western Australia, and can Los Pumas possible bounce back against the Springboks at Twickenham? This week's key questions: Q1. Despite the Horror of Ellis Park, is this South Africa's Rugby Championship to lose? (reckon this is the headline) Q2. Where is Argentina's best chance of an upset? Q3. Who has fared better from Bledisloe injury toll? And is this Tane Edmed's opportunity to nail down no.10 for November? What do you think? We'd love to hear from you! Learn more about your ad choices.

Former All Blacks captain Sean Fitzpatrick is adamant the Eden Park 50-match unbeaten streak will heap pressure on South Africa —rather than New Zealand— in tonight's Rugby Championship test. The Springboks will attempt to become the first team since France in 1994 to win at the Auckland arena, having beaten the All Blacks the last four tests in a row. Fitzpatrick says he'd dread playing at South Africa's fortress, Ellis Park. “[The Springboks are] all saying, “we love going to Eden Park”, they don't love going to Eden Park,” he told Piney. “Because that's our home, that's where we're successful.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Not too many people ride the Wallabies highs and lows quite like Sean Maloney, and the great Stan Sport/Nine Network Australian commentator joined Brett McKay and Harry Jones on The 8/9 Combo Rugby Podcast to relive all the extremes of the Wallabies opening to The Rugby Championship for 2025 in South Africa. The memorable Ellis Park win has completely shifted the narrative on the Wallabies, to the extent that the loss in Cape Town may have even enhanced it, for the way they were able to nullify the might of the Springboks at times. Wallabies fans will love this chat, but rugby fans in general will love this chat too, because at some point, we've been through what Australian rugby fans are currently experiencing. #rugby #rugbypodcast #89Combo #internationalrugby #Wallabies #TheRugbyChampionship, #Springboks, #AllBlacks, #LosPumas 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.

As usual, AI slop shownotes for anyone who wants to read them. Enjoy!In this packed episode of The Two Jacks, Jack the Insider and Hong Kong Jack cut through a huge week in politics, policy, and sport. They kick off with life on the bike lanes and the four‑day work week debate before diving into Australia's productivity roundtable: where progress might actually come from, why energy costs and regulation matter most, and how timid politics strangles reform. They spar over tax design, housing, stamp duty, and the red tape that inflates costs without improving quality.From there, the Jacks range across global flashpoints and US turbulence—Israel–Australia tit-for-tat visas, the Ukraine–Russia talks fallout, the limits of sanctions, and whether the West has the will for long wars. Stateside, they dissect rising US inflation pressures, Congress's stock-trading problem, and the “picking winners” trap in industrial policy. Locally, they tackle the Greens in Tasmania, crime perception vs data, and Australia's defense priorities in a drone-dominated future—before a big sports wrap: AFL finals implications from homophobic slur bans, NRL ladder-shaping clashes, cricket's farewell to Bob Simpson, the Wallabies' breakthrough at Ellis Park, and Sydney's Allianz Stadium turf debacle.Timestamped segments and takeaways 00:00:01 – Cold open, weather and bike lanesBanter on soggy Sydney/Melbourne and bike lane hazards.Takeaway: Urban transport design vs pedestrian safety—light opener that foreshadows policy tradeoffs.00:02:23 – Four‑day work week and productivity roundtableJack the Insider outlines ACTU's four‑day week ask; government quickly cools it.Hong Kong Jack: flexible, case-by-case four‑day arrangements can work well; blanket mandates don't.Notable quote (Hong Kong Jack): “It really is a case-by-case basis… it can be done—it just can't be done across the board.”00:04:26 – Housing, commuting, and productivity dragLong commutes as a hidden productivity killer; WFH rights expanding in Victoria but role-dependent.00:06:47 – AI regulation “light touch”Productivity Commission signals minimal regulation; Jack the Insider flags creator rights concerns.00:07:51 – Where productivity gains might come fromHong Kong Jack: “The two obvious areas to attack are regulation and energy costs.”00:08:17 – Energy transition, prices, and investmentJack the Insider: transition and decades of policy drift drove high prices; grid infrastructure is the bottleneck.Coal vs renewables economics; investment won't return to coal due to horizon risk.00:12:00 – Cutting “red tape”: harmonization and tax settingsFederation frictions; harmonise state regs; stamp duty singled out as a worst tax.Building codes ballooning costs while quality supervision lags.00:14:24 – Build quality crises and supervision gapsMascot/Zetland examples; spate of vacated towers; cheap builds, high prices.00:15:40 – Political capital, timid reform, and election calculusIs Albanese Labor's John Howard—few big-ticket reforms, focus on winning?Take reforms to an election (GST precedent), but reformers often punished at the polls.00:24:45 – Israel–Australia visa spatSimcha Rothman's visa withdrawn; Israel responds by revoking visas for Australians to the Palestinian Authority; both sides flex sovereignty.Notable quote (Hong Kong Jack): “This is just how it works.”00:27:28 – Failed asylum seekers backlog nearing 100kProcessing delays create perverse incentives; most rejected claimants retain work/study rights—encourages low‑merit claims.Enforcement throughput is minimal; backlog self‑feeds.00:32:07 – Tasmania: Greens hold line on stabilityGreens won't back Labor no-confidence; Premier continues; different cultures in Tas vs NSW Greens.00:36:32 – Vale Terence StampPersonal memories; Priscilla role noted; a prickly but great actor.00:38:00 – Ukraine–Russia: Alaska talks flop, semantics vs substanceOptics criticised; ceasefire vs peace semantics; limits of sanctions and Western will.Debate: Can Ukraine regain Crimea/Donbas? Is a negotiated end inevitable? Historical echoes (appeasement vs long war).00:49:05 – US inflation watch and tariffsProducer prices beat; risks of re‑acceleration; fuel prices helping headline but underlying pressures rising.Tariffs' pass-through to consumers; political messaging vs data; Fed unlikely to cut on these numbers.00:54:24 – Crime, stats vs street realityDC deployments; media narratives vs lived experience; class/education divide shapes perceptions.00:58:26 – Drones, defense, and future warfareUS behind China on cheap drone swarms (DJI dominance); implications for Australia: missiles, subs, strike aircraft, drones, and a modern surface fleet.01:00:42 – Congressional stock trading and transparencyBipartisan enrichment via informational access; “broadcast trades in real-time” proposal; ban vs radical transparency.01:04:27 – Picking winners: Intel, Kodak lessonsGovernment stakes risk political logic over market logic; Kodak/Motorola as cautionary tales.01:08:05 – Crime again: data declines vs spikes that matterAustralia's violent crime historically higher in 1920s/1980s; present-day spikes (aggravated burglaries) shape sentiment; good recidivism programs often lack political incentives.01:13:08 – AFL: homophobic slur sanctions and finals stakesRankine case likely to set a benchmark; prior bans (3–6 weeks) cited; consistency required.Notable quote (Jack the Insider): “It's a bad word… it needs to be removed from the game.”01:19:01 – AFL form lines and umpiringAdelaide/Geelong threats; Collingwood's midfield clearance issues; four‑umpire system not working.01:21:33 – NRL, cricket, rugbyNRL: Storm beat Panthers; big clashes ahead; ladder permutations.Cricket: Vale Bob Simpson; fielding revolution; ODI series in Cairns; roster chat (Maxwell retired from ODIs; case for Tim David).Wallabies: first Ellis Park win since 1963; O'Connor–Jorgensen try a “thing of beauty.”01:27:16 – Allianz Stadium turf failureDrainage massively under-spec; costly resurfacing; modern stadiums should drain ~600mm/hr; Allianz reported ~40mm/hr.01:31:07 – Vegas tourism pivot and gougePricing up, volume down; “milk everything” model—$50/day minibar “storage” anecdote; vibe no longer value-driven.01:32:53 – Corporate team bonding and Beef WellingtonHong Kong's “Feather and Bone”-style classes; culinary nostalgia to close the show.Sign-off: where to contact The Two Jacks (Condition Release Program email, Substack, X DMs open).Notable quotes to pull“The essence of progress to a better life for Australians is improved productivity.”“The two obvious areas to attack are regulation and energy costs.”“It can be done—it just can't be done across the board.”“Drones and robotics are the future of warfare.”“It's a bad word… it needs to be removed from the game.”
Riaan Louw joins the 8/9 Combo Rugby Podcast and the therapist is in! Riaan and Harry delved into all the ways they were wrong about the Bok-Wallabies game at Ellis Park last weekend, while Brett McKay just sat back and enjoyed it all. But that means there will be some degree of reaction in the return match in Cape Town, where Harry comes to you from, and where both South Africa and Australia have been forced into changes. Surely South Africa won't lose two in a row at home, will they?

The Wallabies shock win over the Springboks at Ellis Park didn't just break a 62-year drought, it's completely thrown The Rugby Championship on its' head for 2025. But it surely isn't over already?

The Rugby Championship is underway for 2025, and Brett McKay and Harry Jones have fired up the TRC Post-Mortem for The 8-9 Combo Rugby Podcast, after the Wallabies shock 38-22 win over the Springboks at Ellis Park, Johannesburg. Australia's first win in Jo'burg since the 1960s will rank as one of the biggest Test rugby upsets of the professional era, and certainly the most incredible Wallabies comeback. From 22-0 down after just 19 minutes, Australia piled on six tries and 38 unanswered points to record a stunning Bonus Point win to kick off The Rugby Championship, with the result leaving huge implications for World Rankings, and 2027 RWC seedings later this year. It's the most unexpected of wins. This wasn't supposed to happen.

C'était un 24 juin, il y a 30 ans tout pile. C'était jour de finale à Johannesburg, où l'Afrique du Sud gagnait sa première Coupe du monde de rugby. Un tournant dans l'histoire du pays, avec l'implication directe du nouveau président élu, Nelson Mandela, et son projet de nation arc-en-ciel, après l'apartheid. Ce 24 juin 1995 voit les Springboks soulever la coupe Webb Ellis et le pays entier vibrer. C'est l'éclosion de cette fierté d'une nation unie par le sport, prête à se réconcilier. RFI est retourné sur les lieux de cette finale historique, au stade Ellis Park, accompagné d'un de ceux qui ont foulé la pelouse le 24 juin 1995. De notre correspondant à Johannesburg, Nous avançons dans un long couloir chargé d'histoire. Il relie les vestiaires à la pelouse. Trente ans plus tôt, le 24 juin 1995, le jour de la finale du Mondial de rugby, Rudolf Streauli l'empruntait en tant que joueur : « J'étais impatient d'arriver au bout de ce couloir. » À l'époque, il entre sur le terrain avec le numéro 19 dans le dos. « Le président était assis là. Nous, on sentait le stade vibrer », se souvient-il. Devenu un temps entraîneur des Springboks, l'ancien joueur de près de 2 mètres dirige aujourd'hui le club de Johannesburg, les Lions, basé à Ellis Park. Le stade de la finale de 1995 est donc devenu son bureau : « Après avoir soulevé la coupe, je voulais jouer un plus grand rôle. Je suis fier de m'occuper du stade et de vous montrer notre musée aujourd'hui. » Un musée qui retrace l'histoire du rugby sud-africain. Avec, évidemment, des photos de Nelson Mandela, l'ancien président qui a fait de cette première victoire en Coupe du monde un tournant pour l'Afrique du Sud. « Quand il est arrivé avec le maillot numéro 6, c'était une surprise. On était tous nerveux, mais positivement », se remémore-t-il. Sam Nyaniso est salarié du club et nous accompagne le temps de la visite. Et même si ce fan de rugby travaille avec le champion du monde depuis des années, il n'est jamais à court de questions. « Rudolf, sans Mandela, tu penses que vous auriez gagné ? », interroge-t-il. Et le joueur de lui répondre que Madiba avait « joué un rôle central. Son projet pour le pays nous a évidemment motivé ». « Moi, j'avais 11 ans, j'ai regardé la finale sur une petite télévision. Les gens sont sortis dans la rue, ils klaxonnaient. Blancs et Noirs se prenaient dans les bras, témoigne Sam Nyaniso. Et quelques années plus tard, quand Rudolf est devenu coach, mon père a été recruté pour travailler avec lui. C'est lui sur cette photo. » « Le rugby, c'est un sport qui peut changer une société », estime Rudolf Streauli. Quant à Sam Nyaniso, il mesure la force et l'impact du rugby sur sa propre trajectoire : « Pour un gars comme moi, cela a ouvert tellement de portes. Je n'oublierai jamais cette finale ! » Trente plus tard, l'Afrique du Sud reste un pays fracturé et particulièrement inégal. Rudolf Streauli, fidèle à la mentalité de 1995, continue donc d'utiliser le rugby comme un vecteur d'unité et d'espoir pour les Sud-Africains.

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. Ellis Park then releases wide across Australia on 12 June 2025.The Ellis Park sanctuary is part of the Jakarta Animal Aid Network, a non-government, non-profit organisation that was established in 2004 to protect Indonesian wildlife, with a focusing on animal cruelty and rescuing animals from the noxious illegal animal trade network.
