PSDT GOAT, Nic White antics and ruthless All Blacks
Shaun and Thala review week 2 of the Rugby Championship.
We start with the Springboks’ bonus point victory over Australia. We discuss what we learned and saw from the second stringers, the impressive and error free performance of Aphelele Fassi, the workhorse performance from Ruan Nortje and why Jan-Hendrik Wessels reminds Thala of Pierre Spies.
Shaun raves about the calmness of Lukhanyo Am, and whether Pieter-Steph du Toit might be the best blindside flank ever.
Looking at the other Rugby Championship sides, we discuss what the Wallabies are trying to be good at and the value of Nic White and Marika Koroibete, why Argentina can’t back up big wins and the ruthlessness of the All Blacks up front led by Tamaiti Williams and Ethan Blackadder.
