Women's Rugby Pod

WRP 151 - Madagascar & Pineapple!!  What a show for you this week!! Over the last few weeks the Rugby Africa Cup has been taking place in Madagascar, for the very first time with Cameroon, Kenya, South Africa and the hosts all trying to qualify for WXV. The scenes of sheer rugby joy coming out of Madagascar and being beamed around the world has been fantastic to see. So (of course) we got the lady who has had a huge influence on delivering this, the Manager of Women's Rugby in Madagascar, Ando Herimahefa joins us on the pod. Ando speaks about the crowds, her pride in what has occurred on the island and how important rugby is to the players and their communities. If that wasn't enough, World Cup winner Vicky Fleetwood announced her retirement from all forms of the game this week; we speak to "Fleeto" about her career in XVs and 7s. She recalls her best moments, most feared opponents, how she started and where her drive has come from for such a long career. We also have all the results and news from around the world, including France, Asia Championship, the Premier XVs and who is coming out on top in the Oceania Rugby Women's championship?!
