from RugbyBits · host RugbyBits

Shaun and Thala are joined by Charlie Morgan to review week 3 of the Nations Championship.First Shaun and Thala look back on the Springboks' 43-0 victory against Wales. We discuss an impressive debut by Carlu Sadie, the impact of Paul de Villiers and Jaco Williams' combination with Jesse Kriel. Shaun and Thala then debate what their Springbok 23 would be for Rugby's Greatest Rivalry tour - who starts between Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu or Manie Libbok? Would Ethan Hooker start in our team? Would we go 5-3, 6-2 or 7-1? Shaun and I then discuss way too early Rugby World Cup 2027 squad hot takes involving Cobus Wiese and Kurt-Lee Arendse.Charlie Morgan then joins us to discuss the wild Argentina v England game. Charlie discusses what England have learned from this year, the discipline issues that England has as they had 4 yellow cards in this game and the impressive performance of Immanuel Feyi-Waboso. We then debate the non-try from Bautista Delguy and how Angus Gardner handled a very contentious game.We then break down the rest of the weekend's games, including the All Blacks looking impressive in beating Ireland, the Baby Boks grinding out a win against France in the Junior World Championship, Fiji putting in a respectable performance against Scotland, Hong Kong China beating Uruguay and we discuss if Les Kiss has been handed an access card by Rugby Australia yet.00:00:00 Start00:00:45 Springbok Chat00:04:38 Vusi Moyo, Ruben van Heerden, Carlu Sadie and Jaco Williams00:08:10 Herschel Jantjies00:11:23 Paul de Villiers excellence00:16:15 Wales and their poor game plan00:21:29 Our Bok 23 for Greatest Rivalry00:43:53 Shaun's hot Springbok takes ahead of RWC202700:50:50 BabyBoks, Nations Cup and Nations Championship results00:56:02 Los Pumas v England01:15:57 All Blacks v Ireland01:38:52 Les Kiss01:41:26 Charlie Morgan joins and discusses England and why he is optimistic
