We wrap up the year on the DSPN with Tony Johnson, breaking down what 2025 really told us about the All Blacks, where the pressure points sit, and what’s coming next in a massive year of rugby.

We get into the Six Nations, England’s rise, France’s uncertainty, and Ireland’s changing guard, before turning our focus back home. Tony gives his read on the All Blacks season, the South African reality check, missed opportunities, and why next year shapes everything heading toward the World Cup.

There’s also a deep dive into Super Rugby, standout performances, emerging players, coaching questions, and the results of our end-of-year polls. Honest, measured, and sharp as always - this is the kind of rugby conversation we all need before switching off for summer.
