Rugby World Cup Kickoff! Canada, Contenders & Opening Clashes
About this episode
Sara Svoboda and Emma Swords are back on Rugby Rodeo to preview the Rugby World Cup’s opening weekend! They break down some of the Red Roses’ biggest challengers, from Canada’s depth to the Black Ferns’ Sevens-powered flair, and touch on USA, France, Fiji, Ireland, SA and Australia as potential dark horses. Alongside the rugby chat, the pair open up about dealing with setbacks around selection, sharing how to stay better, not bitter, and the rollercoaster of being international players. Lots more as the biggest tournament gets underway.
