2026/10/05

Welcome back to another week of the Pick & Go.The Aussies are coming and they are riding a wave of confidence into Eden Park, so is the streak under threat or has the win against South Africa created false hope for the team in mustard. The All Blacks will name their team later in the week, but we have a crack at naming the team to face the All Blacks. Will the Aussies use the same tactics as South Africa used to beat the All Blacks? The NPC has reached the playoffs, so we ask who was

Welcome back to another week of the Pick & Go.Have we solved the lack of entainment at the NRL Grand Final? NPC rolls into the last week of the regular season and will Wellington go an entire season without picking up a win? How will history look back at this Wellington team? Are they just unlucky or just poor? We breakdown that impressive Aussie win against the South Africans in one of the great test matches, but what made Jeff Wilson decide to change channel?

Welcome back to another week of the Pick & Go.New Zealand commentary legend, Grant Nisbett returns to the brand new couch this week as we look back at an exciting week of NPC action. Of course, we wouldn’t make him go it alone with Paul so Jeff Wilson and Steve Devine fill out panel. As the NFL has just started we thought it would be a good idea to ask which players from the NPC could make it in the NFL? Which players has the speed, height, and skill to be a top quarterback?

Welcome back to another week of the Pick & Go.Piri Weepu and Steve Devine join us for today’s episode and we try to figure out where it went wrong for the ABs in both Baltimore and the Greatest Rivalry Series. Was there anything New Zealand could have done or is the gap in quality between the sides just too big? The question becomes can the gap be closed between now and next year’s World Cup or will it take a miricle for South Africa not to be crowned champions once again. Lastly NPC is

Welcome back to another week of the Pick & Go.Piri Weepu rejoins the pod, and just in time to give us his feedback on the ABs performance in South Africa and what New Zealand can do to close the gap. The series isn’t over with one game yet to come, but should the Baltimore game count as an official series game, with the lack of South African atmosphere, would beating SA in Baltimore mean as much? Lastly, it looks like Wellington will finish bottom of the NPC, so without relegation, would

We’re also lucky enough to have Steve Devine join us from South Africa to tell us how South Africans reacted to the first result. Of course, it isn’t over yet, with the second test right around the corner. We look at where the game was won, and what lessons can both teams take into the second game? With

Welcome back to another week of the Pick & Go.Here we go! The first test against South Arrica is here and it is looking like it’ll be a classic. Rennie’s new look team have looked impressive & have beaten teams like Italy, France and Ireland, but challenges don’t get bigger than South Africa in South Africa. After last week saw a ref overrule the TMO, we are again talking about TMOs and how much they should get involved in games and if they do, what should that look like. Finally Steve

Welcome back to another week of the Pick & Go.The Greatest Rivalery tour has started with a tough clash against the Stormers, which has certainly left the team bruised, but the ABs did come away with the victory. The match produced a number of talking points, but a massive one was who’ll replace Billy Proctor. There is one name on everyone’s lips, but will Rugby NZ change the rules to let them play. The other key issue was the style of offciating. Is it time World Rugby got together to

Welcome back to another week of the Pick & Go. The All Blacks managed to dispathced Italy after a slow start, but Ireland will not be as forgiving should the ABs start the same way this weekend. Of course, both teams will be motivated by the unbeaten streak at Eden Park and this Ireland side has momnetum and will be a major threat to the fortress. Last week the Nations Championship was full of entertainment, but has the desire to speed up the game been slowed by the TMO. So, we’re asking

Welcome back to another week of the Pick & Go. The All Blacks were finally back in action. The new look team were playing under a new regime, in a new competition against the old foe the French. One offence the ABs looked almost unstoppable, but on defence the team looked leaky, so what grade does Dave Rennie and the team get for their opening game. Of course, as mentioned, the Nations Championship is a new competition so how do the panel feel it has gone, and what improvements could

Can the Chiefs, who again have lost a final, recover? Before we sign off for a couple of weeks, we have to ask, “Are the current Hurricanes the greatest ever Super Rugby team?” the answer,

We talk more about NPC and should we be looking to privatise the comp and bring in multiple leagues that would allow for promotion and relegation.
