Description
On today's podcast, It's Only Sport host Martin Devlin ramps up preview for the first Springboks-All Blacks rugby test of 2024, with the very best New Zealand rugby analyst going around - Justin Marshall. Sunday morning's (New Zealand time) test will be the first clash between the old rivals since last year's Rugby World Cup final in Paris, which South Africa won 12-11. To start the show though, Devlin delivers a sermon from the mountain top, weighing up who the favourite should be for the Supreme Halberg Award early next year out of golfer Lydia Ko and kayaker Dame Lisa Carrington. One of those two appears the likely recipientĀ of the prestigious honour. Then, Devlin chats with Marshall about this weekend's big match, tennis correspondent Dave Worsley talks Lulu Sun's US Open first round exit, Formula One expert Vincenzo Landino recaps the Dutch Grand Prix, and former New Zealand professional golfer John Lister gushes over Ko's incredible achievement at the Old Course at St Andrews. Plus, Devlin and producer Lachlan Waugh discuss the likes of All Blacks selections, punishment for the NRL bunker, and strange pieces of Major League Baseball history on the Tight 5 and Glass Half Full. All that and much more!
