Les plus belles aventures ne sont pas toujours celles que l'on planifie.

This week the boys are scattered all over the place, Ryan is Turnberry, Max is in Cornwall and Marc is in Les Arcs.... so yet again another apology for a delayed episode. Theyve promised that next week everything is back to normal!We hear from Max after that bruising defeat against Gloucester. Max reckons Seb Atkinson was Jonah Lomu, just bumping people for fun while Tomos Williams showed all the skills of Steph Curry. That said Max did get himself a meat pie so every cloud eh.....We get the boys thoughts on Henry Pollock as he picks up his first Premiership try and what a try it was! However they put the skids on any Lions thoughts. Not because he's not good enough but more because the competition is just so intense in the back row. (Does he play prop?)We also look ahead to the Champions Cup round of 16 this weekend with some big ties to look forward to including the ROG derby between La Rochelle and Munster.We also hear what actually went down in Hong Kong as Ryan hung out with an array of the worlds biggest Rugby stars.Enjo!

Andrew Mehrtens is a legend of NZ Rugby and the second highest All Blacks point scorer of all time. He's also widely regarded as one of the most intelligent All Blacks and Sir Wayne Smith described him to us as a ‘genius' on and off the field, who understood the game better than he did. Universally known as Mehrts, in this episode we talk about what he's been doing with his life abroad for the last 20 years, his new-born twins and his fluent French, his best “Suzie” and Jonah Lomu stories from 1995, reflections on the recent loss of his father, the Crusaders and pulling the fingers in South Africa, punditry, family, and all the best yarns in between. Mehrts is a childhood hero of ours and the perfect guest; this was an epic chat, he's got the stories, but he's also got the depth and humour and we had a ton of laughs through this one. We're also super stoked to have Mehrts on the books of B2B Speakers, so if you like what you hear in this episode, and would love him to share his story at your function or event, flick us a message by going to B2Bspeakers.co.nz.

This week we're delighted to welcome Sean Fitzpatrick to the show. Sean was capped 92 times by New Zealand, 51 of those as captain. A World Cup winner and key member of one of the best rugby union teams, he is recognised as one of the greatest All Blacks of all time.  Sean is more than the sum of his rugby achievements. He has been an integral part of bringing the now famous All Black culture to wider sport and business. Key ideals such as ‘sweeping the sheds' and ‘play where your feet are' have been brought to life in James Kerr's excellent book ‘Legacy'. We often look at how numbers, revenue, media engagement etc. builds value in sport. Sean explains how mentality and values are the first building blocks in creating the brand that people want to buy.  This is also about rugby more broadly. Sean's perspective on the role of private equity investing in international rugby having been involved in Silver Lake's minority acquisition of the All Blacks demonstrates the value that lies within the sport. But it begs the question, why is the sport still struggling?  On today's show we discuss: The All Blacks Culture What does it mean to play for one of the most iconic badges in the world of sport? The life of a rugby player before the game became professional in 1995. How the culture of the All Blacks transcends sport, and the value that can be extracted by people living a life away from the field. ‘Play where your feet are', ‘when you're at your best, change it'. What do these sayings mean and what was the role of mindset in creating one of the greatest international teams of all time? It's about the team, not the individual. However is this changing in today's game with the need for ‘celebrity' that wasn't there before? ‘I don't believe in work life balance'; you have to be 100% in'. Sean & Performance  Winning the first Rugby World Cup in 1987 and the story of transitioning from domestic rugby to the international stage. The danger of complacency; how being the best can lead to a team dropping their standards. When this happened to Sean in the early 90's, how did they turn this around? The 1995 World Cup in South Africa is now an iconised occasion in sport and popular culture; what was it like to be on the other side of that famous final and Nelson's Mandela's drive to unite a country using sporting success. Being asked to return to the All Blacks fold on two different occasions having decided to move on. The Business of Rugby The increasing role of private equity in both teams and leagues across the game; why are they investing millions? What do they see as most valuable? A lack of global superstars is holding the sport back; the game needs individuals like Jonah Lomu to bring it to the front of the attention economy. Experiential is the key to driving value. Create amazing experience and capitalise on a reported 1 billion engagement with the All Blacks brand. Building a global IPL/F1 tournament series would bring the entertainment and excitement to the club level like we haven't seen, but are the barriers to doing this insurmountable?

The ceremony at Eden Park will name and celebrate Sir Bryan and six other legendary Pasifika rugby players including Peter Fatialofa, and Jonah Lomu.

C'est l'histoire de LA légende du rugby. C'est l'histoire du plus grand All Blacks, qui n'aura pourtant jamais gagné la Coupe du Monde. C'est l'histoire d'un phénomène d'1m96 et 120kg, un alliage parfait de puissance et de vitesse. C'est l'histoire d'un colosse, aussi destructeur sur le terrain que doux en dehors. C'est l'histoire d'un homme qui a poursuivi ses rêves jusqu'au bout, malgré la maladie qui l'a emportée à 40 ans. C'est l'histoire de Jonah Lomu, le joueur parfait. 

We've maybe saved the hardest for the end. Who is the player who transcends the tournament unlike anyone else? Matt Dawson, Chris Jones and Bryan Habana debate the likes of Richie McCaw, Francois Piennar, Jonny Wilkinson, Jonah Lomu – and Bryan himself!

Jonah Lomu's widow has written a a cease-and-desist letter to the New Zealand Film Commission over a proposed documentary. Nadene Lomu claims she has sole rights to her deceased husband's story, and wrote the letter as a 'last resort'. Sportstalk host D'Arcy Waldegrave explains further. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A legal expert has concluded Nadene Lomu may not be able to stop a documentary being made about her late husband. Jonah Lomu's widow has written a cease-and-desist letter to the New Zealand Film Commission over a proposed documentary about the deceased rugby star. Nadene Lomu said she had trademarked and owned the intellectual property for 'all and anything' related to Jonah. AJ Park litigation principal Thomas Huthwaite says Nadene Lomu won't be able to prevent an independent story from being told. "On the other hand, if she's looking to prevent the use of the name Jonah Lomu as a trademark or in any other way that suggest authorisation- then she might have an argument for that."

Tonight on The Huddle, Jack Tame from ZB's Saturday Mornings and Q&A and Infrastructure NZ CEO Nick Leggett joined in on a discussion about the following issues of the day- and more! Taxpayers have footed a legal aid bill of almost $900,000 for the defence of the Mama Hooch rapists. They have already said they will appeal, so the figure is set to rise significantly. Meanwhile, the victims get essentially nothing. Is that fair? Nadene Lomu has sent a cease-and-desist letter to New Zealand Film Commission over a proposed documentary about her late husband Jonah.

Cette semaine dans Belle Trace, Florence Masnada reçoit Thomas Castaignède, ancien international français de rugby, double vainqueur du tournoi des Cinq Nations, vainqueur du tournoi des Six Nations et quadruple champion de France avec le Stade Toulousain.Pourtant titré à de multiples reprises dans sa discipline, Thomas Castaignède commence ce podcast par une réflexion toute personnelle qu'il a eu au cours de carrière : "Ça doit être incroyable de se dire qu'on est vraiment le meilleur du monde, contrairement aux sports collectifs où l'on peut se cacher derrière les autres." (2:05) Une réflexion qui va mener la discussion vers ses débuts dans le rugby et comment il a arrêté pendant deux ans d'y jouer pour pratiquer l'athlétisme à cause d'un sacré caractère. Thomas raconte ensuite son passage au Castres Olympique et sa rencontre avec Pierre Fabre, un homme qui a changé sa vie selon ses propres mots. Un homme qui lui a permis de traverser sa vie de sportif, une "vie cruelle" comme il le dit, de la meilleure manière possible. (9:03) Il compare son expérience avec la génération actuelle et s'inquiète de la santé mentale des joueurs une fois leur carrière terminée.Le natif de Mont-de-Marsan évoque ses plus beaux souvenirs et notamment son premier jour dans le vestiaire du Stade Toulousain, alors occupé par une grande partie du XV de France de l'époque... Mais aussi d'autres plus douloureux à l'image de sa blessure au tendon d'Achille (21:30)Joueur du Stade Toulousain entre 1994 et 1997, Thomas Castaignède, qui s'est investi dans le club par la suite, a eu la chance de voir les débuts d'Antoine Dupont, qu'il n'a "jamais vu être mauvais". Il raconte ensuite les autres champions qu'il a pu rencontre tout au long de sa carrière de Jonny Wilkinson à Tim Horan en passant par Jonah Lomu ou Serge Blanco. (30:08)Enfin, il évoque en un mot l'évolution du rugby qui selon lui, est passé d'un sport collectif à un sport beaucoup plus individualisé, notamment dans sa préparation. Une évolution qu'il n'apprécie guère.

This time on 'How to win the World Cup' Will Kelleher chats to the former Springbok Joel Stransky. One the most iconic rugby and sporting moments of all time happened at the 1995 World Cup, as Nelson Mandela handed over the William Web Ellis trophy on home to South Africa. Stransky kicked the winning drop goal in the final at Ellis Park as the Springboks silenced a rampaging Jonah Lomu. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This is the very first podcast that former All Black coach John Hart has ever agreed to do (thanks to our mutual mate Kerre Woodham for convincing him to do it)..John was the coach of the legendary Auckland NPC side who won titles in 82, 84 and 85. That 1985 side also won the Ranfurly shield and kept it for 61 games which remains a record in shield history.We talk at length about the disgraceful fallout after the 1999 RWC semifinal loss against France, where he was spat on at a horse race in Christchurch, something which spiraled John into a deep and long-lasting depression.John is a man who has devoted a lot of his life to NZ sport- in rugby he coached 142 games for a total of three teams and retired from the sport with a win record of 84.5%He keeps his head down these days by choice so I can't thank him enough for coming over to chat- especially about some of the less sexy stuff.I really enjoyed spending time with John and I hope you do too.Thanks very much to Radix Nutrition for sponsoring this episode.Without there support, it would not be possible to keep bringing you these conversations- it's a fair amount of work each week and their investment is crucial.

In the inaugural edition of ‘Saturday Morning Cartoons', Marty, Sam and Simon discuss TJ Detweiler and all the gang of Disney's criminally underrated ‘Recess'. We start with a quick recap of the Jonah Lomu's tournament, then discuss our memories of the show (2.00). Sam leads us in a tweak of our staple character draft, where this time we count down our least favourite member of the gang to our most favourite (9.15). We delve into the unforgettable side characters (35.45) - King Bob, The Diggers, Randall the Snitch, and Principal Prickley, to name a few - and Marty prompts us to discuss the existential questions that watching this show made us think about. Enjoy!

Natif d'Aurillac, Olivier Magne raconte ses premiers amours pour le ski (01:48) et comment il a failli délaisser les terrains de rugby pour les pistes blanches. Des pistes qui lui ont apporté une exigence quotidienne en termes d'entraînement à une époque où le rugby n'était pas encore professionnel et qui l'ont façonné mentalement aux grands rendez-vous de sa future carrière.Olivier et Florence discutent ouvertement sur la profession de préparateur mental dans le sport de haut niveau, sur son image, sur son utilité ou encore sur ses dérives. (10:30) L'ancien international français raconte comment il a été accueilli chez les Bleus dans une équipe composée d'anciens qui ne voyaient pas forcément d'un bon œil l'arrivée de jeunes prêts à chiper leur place (17:15). Dans Belle Trace, il est aussi question de Haka et de Jonah Lomu, on vous laisse savourer (25:33). Olivier Magne évoque ensuite sa reconversion et notamment comment en tant que qu'entraîneur des espoirs, il a accompagné la génération actuelle du rugby français, parmi les favori du prochain Mondial dans l'Hexagone (29:48) avant de parler de son rôle de consultant.

Today we're honoured to be joined by Wales, Cardiff & Lions star Josh Navidi, as we celebrate his incredible his career that was all triggered thanks to a chance encounter with Jonah Lomu. We hear about how he's been tragically forced into early retirement through his chronic neck injury, his dads epic escape from Iran during the 1979 revolution, his school boy days playing rugby in NZ, an epic bust up with Bakkies Botha and why Kyle Sinkler was such good fun on the Lions tour to SA. Plus the lads unpack all the action from an epic weekend of European rugby and discuss whether London Irish, Newcastle & Sale, like the Welsh regions, are on the brink of collapse and what can be done to save rugby! So sit back, relax and enjoy another jam packed full episode of the Offload! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It is an absolute honour to be joined in studio by a rugby legend in Danny Care to help us breakdown all of the action from a jaw dropping weekend of action in the Six Nations. Danny explains why he believes; this French side is the greatest team ever in the history of the sport, England were so baldy beaten and where the problems lie, Farrell should be the next Lions coach, England need to sort out their problems at the breakdown, who they should pick at scrum half, the frustrations Marcus Smith has been experiencing, why England may need to turn to central contracts and less teams in the Prem, how England can learn from Scotland and becoming an attacking team and much more on the analysis of the weekends action. Plus we manage to get the greatest stories from his incredible career so far in the sport - from coming up against a young Dupont in France, to tackling Jonah Lomu when he was 17, learning his craft from Justin Marshall at Leeds, renting a private jet to Monaco, being thrown into a fish tank by a bouncer whilst clubbing, witnessing punch ups at Ben Foden's wedding, falling out with Eddie Jones, getting miseld by Warren Gatland for the Lions and much much more...

Enfant du Sud-Ouest, Grégory grandit entre la côte Landaise et sa chère Bigorre, dont il est originaire. D'abord excellent joueur de tennis, il abandonne la petite balle jaune à l'adolescence pour suivre ses copains au rugby, du côté du Football Club Lourdais. Tout va alors très vite : il rejoint le centre de formation du Stade Toulousain, remporte les titres Reichel puis Espoir, et intègre par la même occasion le groupe professionnel, devenant Champion d'Europe 2003 ! Impatient, il quitte Toulouse et débarque du côté de la Capitale, dans un Stade Français en pleine période dorée. Pari gagnant, il soulève le Brennus en 2004, à 23 ans. Après 2 saisons du coté de Jean Bouin, il s'engage à Narbonne puis à Brive, connait le chômage, rebondit à Marseille dans un projet articulé autour de la légende Jonah Lomu, puis s'impose à Carcassonne. C'est alors qu'en mai 2011, sa vie bascule : il fait un AVC suite auquel rien ne sera plus jamais comme avant. Passé tout proche de la correctionnelle, Grégory compose alors avec les séquelles de son accident et réussit l'invraisemblable pari de refouler les terrains au bout de seulement 7 mois ! Il choisit par la suite de préparer sa reconversion en conciliant le rugby avec une école de kiné. Véritable globetrotter, Gregory est passé par la côte basque, Monaco, l'ile Maurice et a ouvert son cabinet à la Réunion ! Immense déconneur et très bon vivant, Grégory n'en est pas moins un énorme travailleur. C'est vraiment une personnalité comme on en voit peu. Aussi fou furieux qu'attachant, j'ai passé un magnifique moment en sa compagnie ! Bonne écoute ! ----------------------------- ⚠️ Si ce podcast vous plait, n'hésitez pas à le noter 5/5 sur Apple Podcast, à laisser un commentaire sympa et à le partager autour de vous.

One of the all-time greats, Zinzan Brooke, is on the sofa this week with Alex and Tinds. We get the inside track on Tinds' royal weekend at the Queen's Jubilee celebrations, before diving into the man who's seen it all in a career spanning the amateur and professional eras. He explains how summer touch helped shape the All Blacks stylish rugby in the 80s and talks about what it was like to win the World Cup before reporting back to work as a plumber. Jonah Lomu crops up in conversation (of course he does), so do 40-metre drop goals (of course they do) and then there's that famous Zinzan mullet, a conversation starter if ever there was one.
