Season 5, Ep. 12

WRP 167 - Kabeya is back! Sadia Kabeya makes her long-awaited return to the field for Loughborough Lightening and she co-hosts the pod, alongside Johnnie Hammond, The Red Rose star reveals the emotions around her return and the disappointment in her team's loss. All the other PWR round 4 games are reviewed; Exeter's big win at The Stoop and Ealing's historic victory. Guinness have launched (well...re-launched!!) into the women's game, Sadia and Johnnie reflect on that positive story. Plus there's all the news from around the oval world; with results from France, Ireland, the world of 7s and reflections on a special night in London with the announcement of the opening and closing venues of the 2025 World Cup. And the pair give a full preview of this week's PWR games, including a repeat of last year's final, the live TNT game this weekend, Exeter v Gloucester-Hartpury. There's also Ealing's trip to Bristol, can that famous win be a springboard? While Leicester host Saracens and Lightening go to Sale.
