About this episode
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? And can Argentina bounce back against New Zealand?
This week's key questions:
Q1. Is TRC already over; are we just pretending like in SRP? (Brett)
Q2. Rassie’s public statements: right note? (Harry)
Q3. Last week we thought NZ back row looked a bit weird - did it kind of work? (Brett)
