Ep.19 – Gone to the Birds with Andrew Kellaway

Rugby podcasters Brett McKay and Harry Jones are joined on The 8-9 Combo by now-former Melbourne Rebels, and Wallabies fullback Andrew Kellaway in that small post-Super Rugby Pacific window and before things really step up properly through the international season, with the Wales series now less than three weeks away. In this week’s episode, the boys get a great insight into the Rebels ‘mourning period’ as they go their separate ways post-decision, how the Wallabies pre-squad training has been working and how many highlight clips he has to send to Joe Schmidt, and some really good ideas around what can be done to enhance the downtime in rugby and the lessons that could be learned from the NFL. Plus there’s an early preview of the Super Rugby Pacific Final between the Blues and the Chiefs. And a brush with wildlife.
