DSPN - RUGBY

Argentinian rugby reporter Frankie Deges is back on the DSPN! He joins Martin Devlin to offer a Pumas perspective on that win over the All Blacks. For Frankie, who has followed Los Pumas since childhood, it’s pure vindication - not the All Blacks losing, but Argentina rising with grit, smart tactics, and aerial dominance. He highlights Pablo Matera’s fire, the forwards’ relentless work, and coach Felipe Contepomi’s adjustments that made New Zealand uncomfortable from start to finish. Yet even in celebration, Frankie acknowledges the question that always lingers... can Argentina reach this level every week? For now, it’s front-page glory and a landmark moment in rugby.

The DSPN is here to unpack all the important details of the All Blacks' 29-23 loss to the Pumas on the weekend. New Zealand's stumble has Martin Devlin and Tony Johnson trading fresh words for fresh frustrations. From misfiring lineouts to chaotic backline play, nothing seemed to click, and Tony doesn't shy from pointing out the recurring demons - aerial woes, dumb yellow cards, and wasted possession. Could an SOS to Wayne Smith be an option? The pair discuss that as well as potential selection changes to the back three and loose forwards, with the Springbok tests now under two weeks away.

On the DSPN, Martin Devlin delivers a sermon ahead of All Blacks team naming for the second test against the Pumas in Argentina. Could coach Scott Robertson and his peers make a number of changes to the matchday squad, and bring in some younger, fresh faces? It's unlikely, and Marty has the reasons why...

Then, Marty and young producer Lachlan Waugh gather 'round the debating table for the Tight 5, where they dissect and discuss five separate sporting topics. In this edition, the boys cover off whether the Wallabies can upset the Springboks again, the NRL's LAME Thursday night offering, and Chris Wood being named in the Premier League Team of the Season.

Greg Martin - former Wallabies fullback and current Triple M radio host in Brisbane - is back on the DSPN! Talking all about sport, beer and other men's things with Martin Devlin. They revisit Marto's prediction for the first Springboks-Wallabies test, and talk about how important the win was for Australia - Marto reckons it's Aussie's greatest win since the 1999 World Cup semi-final. The pair also discuss how the victory shattered the Springboks’ aura of invincibility, and showcased a thrilling, fast-paced style of play. But both remain cautious ahead of the return clash in Cape Town.
