Force prop Tom Robertson talks about THAT try, his time at Oxford and the differences he's seen at the Club since his return to Perth. Mitch sounds like he's on dial up, but at least he was there Tess...
James 'Chucky' Stannard joins us to talk about his new role at the Force and where the team is at. Great to have him back in the West.
The express edition, with press conferences featuring Western Force coach Simon Cron and players Nick White and Dylan Pietsch.
Simon Cron discusses the Force win, why he didn't take Ben Donaldson off, and what they need to do to get the W in Canberra.
Here's what the coach and captain had to say after the Western Force snuck home on Saturday.
It's the stripped back, unplugged, acoustic version of the Rugby Wrap. All is explained. Thanks to the Western Force for the interviews with Carlo Tizzano and Trilleen Pomare. The full RW team will be back next week. (Tessmann depending.)
In a special live-in-front-of-a-studio-audience episode, we catch up with SVNS Event Oversight Director, Rebecca Roe, and World Rugby Series Director, Cian Twomey, to talk about the @svns_per . Thanks to Pitcher Partners, @AustralianRBN #PerthRBN and of course, Leap Strategies. We also give Heath Tessman his Christmas present.
In our final podcast for 2024, we catch up with Classic Wallaby Matt Cockbain to chat the Classics, coaching pathways and where he sees the Wallabies. Plus a big mail bag. Huge thanks to Leap Strategies and all our listeners for your support.
EARLY RELEASE. This week we catch up with the Super Rugby Commissioner, Carolyn Turnbull, to talk about the structure for next year, the future of Super Rugby and the effort WA has made to secure big rugby events for Perth.
The good news is, we talk about a cracking RugbyWA grand final. The bad news is, we also talk about the Wallabies.
While Heath Tessmann suns himself on a beach at Coral Bay, Mick Colliss and Mitch Hardy look at the recent internationals, the local grand finals and the winners at the RugbyWA awards breakfast.
After a break, two of us are back to just shoot the breeze, talk a bit of Wallabies and have a look at the local scene. Bar room rugby chat.
In this week's episode we shoot the breeze about a possible Wallabies line up and hint at another salacious rumour in the mailbag. (Apologies for some of the sound issues.)
Great to catch up with fan favourite Ian Prior to chat about the Force and his recent international appearance with Zimbabwe. What a champion. Plus the rumours fly thick and fast in the mailbag.
We wrap up of the internationals, look at club rugby and ponder the ramifications if the Brumbies play some games in Melbourne. With thanks again to our sponsor, Leap Strategies.
A quick review of the semis, a quick preview of the Final and some good chat in the mail bag about certain players being sent to the Sevens program.
This is good ep, if I do say so myself. RA Chairman Daniel Herbert talks through the Rebels, the financial situation and what the board is focusing on for the next 6 months. We shoot the breeze about the 7s, and Mitch and Heath pick their Test teams. It's a long one, so good if you're stuck in traffic.
We shoot the breeze with Western Force Wallaroo Sammy Wood and take a look at the final round of Super Rugby.
DC gone, NZRU splintering, Ronan Leahy to debut for the Force. We missed them all because we had to record early. We also missed Heath Tessmann.
Fergus Lee-Warner and the Liquidators sounds like the name of a band, but it's our two guests this week as we look at the Rebels situation and catch up with one of the former Western Force stars now playing for the Tahs.
