About this episode
On the latest edition of Rugby Direct, Elliott Smith and Liam Napier recap the opening weekend of the World Cup - leading with a big focus on the All Blacks' 27-13 loss to France and how they were defeated...and why.
We delve into where to from here for the All Blacks and if they simply just don't have a seat at the top table currently in the sport.
We also review the other big games of the first week - including whether Fiji can feel hard done by losing to Wales in the final game of the opening weekend.
