All Blacks v Sharks: Jacobson Takes Charge, Nonu Awaits & Durban Turns Nasty

Jamie Wall is on the ground in Durban as the All Blacks prepare to face the Sharks at Kings Park in conditions that look more Wellington than KwaZulu-Natal. South African rugby journalist Brenden Nel joins Jamie to break down what the wind and rain could mean for the game, the exciting young Sharks who could cause problems, and why discipline remains a major work-on for the All Blacks. Plus, Luke Jacobson reacts to the surprise of being named All Blacks captain, the team prepares for another South African aerial assault, and there’s the small matter of All Blacks legend Ma’a Nonu lining up on the other side. Jamie and Brenden also get into the unique rugby culture of Durban and Kings Park, from braais in the car park to bars, swimming pools... and monkeys stealing lunch.
