Mziwakhe Nkosi believes Saturday's Currie Cup final is a shot at redemption for the Lions when they clash with the Sharks at Ellis Park. Nkosi admits on the 'To The Last Drop' podcast his players did not cover themselves in glory on that day when they were sucker punched into kicking duel.

Nkosi is unfazed about the prospect of the Sharks loading their team with Springboks.

This week's show also looks forward to the Springboks' Test against Argentina in Santiago del Estero plus it features a clip from Bok coach Rassie Erasmus in which he expresses his displeasure at Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu's decision not to reveal an injury.

Die Mevrouens het ontwaak na hulle winterslaap en uit kom die selfone om die kuiers in die kalender in te skryf. Daar’s baie om op te vang – die een se tande is nie meer agter tralies nie en die ander een dink sy het die raaisel oor haar geheimsinnige allergiese reaksie sommer self opgelos.

Dis die begin van nuwe seisoene en Gerda de Sousa en Dianne Broodryk klets te lekker … totdat een oor haar woorde struikel.

As much as Springbok rugby is in rude health, the All Blacks find themselves under searching examination following three defeats in their first four Rugby Championship clashes this year. 'To The Last Drop' hosts Brenden Nel and Liam Del Carme argue the All Blacks aren't far off the pace but that the wins column will ultimately determine the fate of their head coach Scott Robertson. The All Blacks coach faced some awkward questions after his team's defeat in Cape Town last Saturday.

After their stunning come-from-behind win over the All Blacks at Ellis Park, the Springboks are within touching distance of claiming their first Rugby Championship since 2019.

They meet the All Blacks again on Saturday but the tourists have much to ponder ahead to the clash at Cape Town Stadium. The To The Last Drop hosts chew the fat with Kiwi journalist Jamie Wall about their prospects, the difference Scott Robertson has made since becoming head coach, and the state of New Zealand rugby.

Like everyone else, former Test lock Johan Ackermann is in a state of anticipation ahead of Saturday's Rugby Championship clash between the Springboks and the All Blacks on the latest episode of To The Last Drop. The Boks will hope to firm their grip over the All Blacks with a possible fifth win in their last seven matches against their old foes. The All Blacks, who were a little aggrieved at the outcome of last year's Rugby World Cup final, have a chance to exact retribution at a venue where it will hurt the Boks most. Our hosts break down the elements that may help shape the game with Ackermann, now a much-respected coach.
