On today’s podcast, It’s Only Sport host Martin Devlin begins to dial up preview of this weekend’s Super Rugby Pacific final between the Blues and Chiefs while also addressing some Black Caps/cricket stories still bubbling away.
Firstly, Devlin delivers a sermon on the Black Caps, this time questioning former coach Mike Hesson who suggested fans need to ‘get over it and get used to’ Kiwi cricketers turning down NZC contracts, following men’s white-ball skipper Kane Williamson doing just that. Devlin doesn’t agree one bit, and explains why.
Then, former Wallabies fullback and current radio host Greg Martin talks both rugby codes, two Super Rugby legends in Liam Messam (Chiefs) and Ali Williams (Blues and Crusaders) help preview this weekend’s final, ex-Black Cap and cricket commentator Simon Doull talks the Twenty20 World Cup and Kane Williamson’s NZC contract rejection, and Jason ‘Costo’ Costigan previews the NRL weekend ahead while also talking about the Warriors’ halves options.
Plus, Devlin and producer Lachlan Waugh bicker and argue about a variety of sports news, views and results on the Tight 5 and What Has More Chance Of Happening. All that and much more!
