'Draw Favours All Blacks' - Jamie Wall on Rugby Championship, NPC, & Super Rugby's Super Round

Kiwi rugby reporter Jamie Wall joins Martin Devlin on the DSPN for a wide-ranging rugby chat, covering Super Rugby Pacific’s 2026 “super round” and the pros and cons of its structure. Jamie backs the concept but warns against mixing party vibes with Anzac Day commemorations. In the NPC, the pair work through key storylines across the first two rounds, including Leicester Fainga'anuku's recent performance for Tasman, and Auckland's exciting attack despite two opening losses. The pair then preview the Rugby Championship - the Springboks play the Wallabies and Pumas face the All Blacks in the opening weekend. Jamie believes the All Blacks’ underdog status adds intrigue, with South Africa the ultimate test.
