Description
Shaun and Thala preview Week 2 of the Rugby Championship by looking forward on Australia hosting South Africa and Argentina looking for their 2nd win in two weeks in New Zealand. We first look at the experience bought in by Joe Schmidt with the selections of Nic White and Marika Koroibete. We discuss how Angus Bell can change fortunes at the scrum and we look at how Australia could test Lukhanyo Am defending at 12. For the All Blacks we try to figure out what Scott Robertson is doing with these changes to the backline, Shaun talks about how they need better performances from their locks and flanks and Thala looks forward to more kicking from the All Blacks. We finally talk about some of the surprises in the Pumas selection, including Kremer at lock and the return of Montoya and what a Pumas victory could mean.
