Welcome to Monday's Rugby Daily, with David Wilson.Coming up, we will have all the fallout as France knock Ireland out of the Women's Rugby World Cup.England set new records.Scotland rage against Nucifora and the SRU.Rassie Erasmus not celebrating too much out of respect for the opposition.Razor Robertson rues his side's errors.And Joe Schmidt is sick with disappointment.Rugby on Off The Ball with Bank of Ireland | #NeverStopCompeting

The Boks put the W in Wellington, with Damian Willemse turning in a career performance, Manie and Siya shutting down the noise, and Rassie sneaking a Hooker onto the wing. Meanwhile in Sydney, Los Pumas held off a late Wallaby surge, but somehow it's Australia sitting top of the log. From Wellington to Sydney, A weekend that left fans buzzing, coaches scratching heads, and the log wide open.

The Rugby Championship is officially nuts. After four rounds, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, amd Argentina all have four wins. Brett McKay and Harry Jones try to make sense of it all on another TRC Post-Mortem for The 8-9 Combo Rugby Podcast. In Sydney, Los Pumas scored the two point-win they perhaps should have claimed a week ago, though Australia now lead the tournament courtesy of double bonus points in a loss and the worst forward pass miss in a long time. In Wellington, the Springboks handed the All Blacks a thumping that didn't just eclipse their worst loss on home soil, they more than doubled it. #rugby #rugbypodcast #89Combo #WeekendPostMortem #InternationalRugby #TheRugbyChampionship #Wallabies #AllBlacks #Springboks #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.

If the 2025 Rugby Championship is the tightest one yet, Round 4 this weekend looms as the hardest to pick yet. Australia and Argentina have both rung the changes to their teams, forced and not, New Zealand appear to have beefed up their pack but snuck a debutant on the wing, and South Africa have named such a young side that Rassie may well be now operating two RWCs ahead. Brett & Harry ask the key questions ahead of this weekend's 4th Round of TRC matches in Sydney and Wellington. Can Argentina bounce back from the heartbreak of Townsville? How much do South Africa have left to find a win in NZ? And could we finish the weekend with everyone on two wins? This week's key questions: Q1. If NZ were to be beaten, why would it happen? Q2. If OZ were upset, what's likely reason? Q3. Of those two upsets, which likeliest in your opinion? What do you think? We'd love to hear from you! Learn more about your ad choices.

Rain and the ref seem to be common excuses going around the South African water coolers this week, but in all honesty the Boks had only themselves to blame for gifting Ardie Savea a victory in his 100th Test. While the Springbok men failed to create history, the women will write a new chapter as they appear in their first ever RWC quarter final against New Zealand this week, lining up a tasty Kiwi doubleheader for Bok fans. Andy is optimistic this week about Rassie's brow-raising, youthful selections for the second Test, while Phil and Ant are more pragmatic. Perhaps even more gruelling than dissecting a Springbok loss is having to say nice things about the Wallabies for the third episode in a row. Yuck. Music by @monstroid, 80s TV Show.

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? Is it? Brett & Harry ask the key questions ahead of this weekend's 2nd Round of TRC matches in Cape Town and Buenos Aires. What sort of reaction will we see from the South Africans?

This week on The KOKO Show we have two very special guests that top and tail this groundbreaking episode. To start off, the lads are joined by one of the most prominent voices in South African rugby, a man that has played 9 tests for the Springboks and from all reports he does his best work at altitude, it is of course Mr Hanyani ‘Shimmy' Shimange. Whilst Shimmy was stuffing his face with humble pie, the lads discussed the Wallabies' historic win at Ellis Park over the World Champion Springboks, breaking down how it happened from 22-5 down and where it all went wrong for the shell-shocked home side. The boys looked at individual moments, plays and performances that shaped this drought breaking win, whilst also looking forward to this week's match in Cape Town and what we can expect to see from this wounded Springboks side. Plus, when all the gloating and yahooing quietened down we eventually moved on to cover the other TRC result from the weekend, which saw the mighty All Blacks server up some seriously fast footy to take down Los Pumas 41-24 in Cordoba. With week one of the TRC in the books, it is fair to say this Wallabies team has shocked the rugby world, but here at KOKO we told you this ‘Schmidt' was going to happen.To continue this groundbreaking piece of podcasting history we are joined by Wallaroos enforcer and metre eating sensation Bree-Anna Browne. She joined us from the Wallaroos' World Cup camp in Manchester to spill all the tea on what their tournament prep is looking like and how training is going before game one against Samoa. The KOKO Show along with Australia are throwing all their love and support behind the ‘Gals in Gold' and here is hoping they shake things up at RWC2025. So sit back, relax and adorn those beautiful faces with pore clogging face paint, this week we are eating, drinking and sleeping all things green and gold. In conclusion we just want to say “stand up Australia” it is time for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.Sign up to get first access to Budgy Smugglers Limited Edition Wallabies Pyjamas: https://budgysmuggler.com.au/pages/wallabies-pyjamas-early-access?utm_source=KOKO&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=WallabiesPJsTIMESTAMPS:00:00 - Start of the show02:00 - Initial reactions to the Wallabies win03:18 - Introduce Shimmy04:57 - The reaction in South Africa 06:39 - South African changes for game 2 08:12 - South African fans in shock 10:12- How do South Africa nullify McReight 11:57 - What went wrong in the second half?14:05 - What did Rassie say after the game? 16:34 - the struggles of playing at altitude18:30 - Cocky SA fans at half time 21:50 - Siya Kolisi's injury and the world rankings23:33 - Farewell to Shimmy24:56 - Best spots in Cape Town26:27 - SOUTH AFRICA V WALLABIES KOKO REVIEW35:00 - ARGENTINA V ALL BLACKS KOKO REVIEW40:45 - The KOKO Quiz 45:56 - The Bree-Anna Browne Wallaroos interview 48:11 - Wallaroos team bonding 50:00 - Prepping for match 1 against Samoa 52:37 - Wallaroos players to watch out for in England 56:39 - Bench, Start and Drop 01:01:14 - Merch Update Budgy Smuggler PJs out now 01:02:47 - Goit's gripes with parents at Saturday sport 01:04:38 - Close of the showBUY YOUR KOKO MERCHANDISE AND STAY TUNED FOR EVENTS - www.kickoffsandkickons.comMake sure you follow us on all socials:INSTA: @kickoffskickonsTWITTER/X: @kickoffskickonsYOUTUBE: @kickoffsandkickonsTIKTOK: @kickoffskickonsIf you do want to talk about sponsorship or anything business related then please do get in touch with us info@shtn.com.au.

It's Rugby Championship time and ARP gets into who looks best placed for wins! Argentina have beaten the All Blacks three times in recent years. We look into why, as well as breaking down Australia's chances against the Boks. With Richie Mo'unga returning in 2026, we ask whether NZ needs a first choice 10, or whether Scott Robertson should follow Rassie's lead and have a horses for courses approach. Plus, we look at the challenges Rugby 360 faces in getting off the ground. And fun-loving All Blacks winger Emoni Narawa joined the team to chat about having a baby born on All Blacks squad naming day. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

I was delighted to be joined by Springbok Women head coach Swys de Bruin! Having worked at academy, Franchise & Men's international level as well as being an analyst for SuperSports, there perhaps no one in South Africa more qualified as a rugby educator as Swys. In this podcast I was lucky enough to be able to pick his brains for nearly an hour, covering a wide variety of rugby topics. Swys is of course deep in his preparations with the Springbok women for the Rugby World Cup in England later in 2025. I ask him all about how he has adjusted to coaching in women's rugby and how the women's game is progressing in South Africa. He talked passionately about the diversity in South African rugby and how important it is to draw on the strength that gives the country. He then gave me a fascinating insight into his approach to coaching and how he views himself as a rugby teacher. He tells me how he communicates with his players and how he gets them playing rugby to his vision for the game. He also gave me some brilliant analysis on where rugby is headed and the trends he is seeing across the game. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Normal service resumes! The All Blacks knock over a depleted French outfit, the Boks batter Italy (with a side of Rassie's signature shithousery), and the Lions dish out a thumping to the AU-NZ mash-up team in a match only a mother could love. Oh—and Wales actually won a game. That's 1 win from their last 20. Momentum, baby.Grab a beer and Enjoy!

The Boks sent the BaaBaas packing but not without a few boxes of South African wine.

Die Springbok-afrigter, Rassie Erasmus, het die vaskopstut Asenathi Ntlabakanye se toewyding geloof, wat tot sy insluiting in die nasionale span gelei het. Die 26-jarige Ntlabakanye is een van vier nuwe spelers in die Bok-groep wat die Barbarians Saterdag in Kaapstad pak. Sy ontwikkeling het intensiewe oefeninge ingesluit op die skrumafrigter, Daan Human, se plaas naby Bloemfontein, waar hy op kondisionering en tegniese skrumwerk gefokus het. Erasmus sê Ntlabakanye se toewyding het 'n dramatiese fisieke verandering meegebring:

Springbok-afrigter Rassie Erasmus sê hy sal voortgaan met sy span-rotasiebeleid. In 2024 het hy 50 spelers in 13 toetswedstryde gebruik en 12 nuwelinge ingespan. Erasmus het nege nuwelinge in sy groep van 55 vir die kragmeting teen die Barbarians op 28 Junie en toetse teen Italië en Georgië in Julie. Hy sê hulle wil iets soortgelyk aan verlede jaar doen waar die senior spelers en sommige van die jonger spelers ʼn bydrae op die veld lewer:

We are also joined by the great winger Cheslin Kolbe; what has been his favourite moment in a Springbok jersey, and what's the driving force behind his brilliant career so far?

On Wednesday's Rugby Daily, Richie McCormack brings you news of the Emerging Ireland squad that will tour South Africa next month. We hear from its head coach Simon Easterby on Zac Ward, Cormac Izuchukwu and Sam Prendergast. It's a doubly good day for Ulster's Harry Sheridan. Joey Carbery's injury fears confirmed. And Rassie Eramus' rebuke for injured Springboks star Sacha Feinberg-Mgomezulu.

Rassie has been ice cold with his selections this week, proving he's not a Fassi eater. Will Sacha flake on the biggest stage of his career? Will the artificially sweetened bomb squad have the desired aftertaste? Will the new lock combination melt or glisten? One thing is for sure - the action won't be vanilla as the Boks take on the All Blacks this weekend. Also, Kristen, we love your ice cream. Please can we have one on the house?
