Ep.7 – Pools of Sweat with Ned Hanigan

Rugby podcasters Brett McKay and Harry Jones are joined on The 8-9 Combo by NSW Waratahs lock/backrower Ned Hanigan fresh from their heartbreaking golden point loss to the Fijian Drua in Lautoka in Super Rugby Pacific over the weekend.   It was the latest in a line of ‘what if’ games for the Waratahs in 2024, where their performances on the field aren’t quite matched on the scoreboard or the competition standings, and Ned is refreshing in his honesty of where the Waratahs are just missing a trick or two. Plus the guys discuss World Rugby’s recent moves in the “next steps in the process of reimagining rugby’s entertainment factor”, and whether some of the tweaks are needed at all.   Social media: #89Combo Twitter: https://twitter.com/89combo Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/89combo/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@8-9Combo TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@89combopodcast   Brett: https://twitter.com/BMcSport Harry: https://twitter.com/HaribaldiJones   (Yes, Brett and Harry did used to host The Roar Rugby Podcast!)   Music from Uppbeat: https://uppbeat.io/track/oakvale-of-albion/extreme Voiceovers by Chookman + Amelia Learn more about your ad choices.
