Women's Rugby Pod

WRP 87 - Captain & Cantwell.

England captain Sarah Hunter (MBE!!) hosts this week alongside Johnnie Hammond in another packed week for women's rugby around the globe! Joining them is, Ireland legend and now South Africa's High Performance Manager for the women's game, Lynne Cantwell. The Grand Slammer gives us the lowdown about her new-sih job; what items are at the top of the "to do list," the challenges but also the hopes and aspirations of the programme. Lynne also talks the players to watch now and in the future, Exeter's new signing and the excitement for the up coming autumn tour. The 86-capper also expresses her disappointment at Ireland failing to gain a spot at the next World Cup and gives a heart felt assessment of Dr Claire Molloy's impact on the game; following her retirement of the green jersey.

The Red Roses skipper chats about life at Loughborough Lightening in what has been a tough start to the season. The centurion also runs us through all the Premier XV results from the weekend and where she thinks the teams are at this early stage. The situation in Wales, who announced interim coaches this week, is discussed as well as looking forward to the autumn series. Plus, as ever, we have all the news from around the oval world, from Ireland, New Zealand, France, Spain and the national leagues in England. And there's your "shout outs," with lots of clubs making slices of their own history at the weekend...........listen to see who!!
