1987 #1 - New Zealand 70-6 Italy
About this episode
We're back, with a shiny new theme tune courtesy of Tom Rosenthal! Squidge (@SquidgeRugby) and Will (@will_owen9) have moved on to the inaugural Rugby World Cup in 1987, covering the opening match between New Zealand and Italy. Talking points include World Cup history, bad kicking, the Dolmio Man,, Seinfeld and one Mr P. Try. We also uncover the true reason why John Kirwan scored historic solo try.
Thanks again to the amazing Tom Rosenthal for our new theme tune. It's incredible. He's incredible. Thank you Tom.
