Episode 10 - Siya Kolisi & Ardie Savea Join All Black and Springbok Legends to React to World Cup Final
Season 1, Ep. 10
•
It’s the last dance as we record live from the World Rugby Awards in Paris after the World Cup final. Were joined on the podcast by Springbok and All Blacks legends, and what would have been an incredible centre partnership, in Conrad Smith and Jean de Villiers. In the company of host Gethin Jones and Ugo Monye, the guys reflect on the elation and heartbreak from the Springbok and All-Black camps, and where the game was won and lost. The guys are also joined by Siya Kolisi and Ardie Savea to get their immediate thoughts post the final and where to next for both teams, including a potential future presidential role for Siya! We also pick our players of the tournament, coach of the tournament, and moment of the tournament, and pick a final few additions for the Kanpai XV.
Enjoy the final Official Rugby World Cup Podcast, presented by Asahi Super Dry. #Rugby #RugbyWorldCup #RWC2023 #Podcast #RWCFinal
