The Kiwi Derby returns for season two! | Studs Up! Podcast | 5/11/25

Studs Up is a podcast hosted by Auckland-born and bred Riccardo Ball and Wellington’s loudest son, Daniel McHardy. They go head-to-head on all the big football issues from the EPL, Champions League, the A-League, and more. On this week's episode: Ric and Daniel are together in studio for Kiwi Derby week, as they both make their cases for their respective teams as the Wellington Phoenix host Auckland FC this weekend. The lads are then joined by Wellington United forward Natalie Olson to chat about her recent inclusion in the Thailand national team squad. Ric and Daniel then recap the Dettol National League results from round six of the competition. The lads then deep dive into European football with discussion around the EPL and the Champions League, and we hear 'Lachie's Stat Attack' on the FIFPRO World XI. Plus, Riccardo and Daniel dish out their best bets of the week with betcha - with a focus on the Kiwi Derby - to hopefully fill your beer fridge. *betcha is R18, please bet responsibly.
