Paul is joined by Searle and Jeff Wilson as they dissect the Rugby Championship.

With the Northern Tour now just around the corner, who hurt their chances of being in the squad and who has cemented their place in the squad?

The big question is should NZ relax the stance on using overseas players, or would that weaken the domestic game?

With the cup done after one match, is there a way to keep the second test between the All Blacks and the Wallabies interesting?

The NPC continues to excite with a number of entertaining games coming up this weekend.

Welcome back to the Pick and Go podcast!

The All Blacks are in an unfamiliar situation having lost 3 of their last 4 games - thank goodness for the Eden Park fortress - and could potentially be lacking a trophy.

So, is this the time to panic, or merely a transition between coaching styles?

If all this All Blacks talk is making you blue, then we can look to the red of Tasman who won the Ranfurly Shield in the final seconds.

Speaking of the Ranfurly Shield, Piri gives us an insight into what happens after you win the shield and what players get up to.

Lastly, the trio of Paul, Piri and Searle look ahead to the test match against Australia and with both teams needing to make a statement it's going to be an exciting match up.

Jeff Wilson joins Paul and Searle to review last weekend's performance agains the Springboks.

What do our panel make of the knock-on? Does World Rugby need to improve its communication with fans and players when mistakes happen?

Is there anything the AB's coaching staff can do to turn things around before their second test?

Can Auckland get a win in the NPC and where has it all gone wrong?

The Rugby Championship is back after a break and they don't come much bigger than this! It is the South Africa vs All Blacks.

The ABs will be looking to make a statement and perhaps gain a little revenge for their World Cup lose, but do Piri, Paul or Searle think this new look team has a chance agains the Springboks?

Is the Wellington stadium cursed, and if so, what is it about the Wellington stadium that seems to have the All Blacks struggling to find a win.

Of course, this lose will mean the honeymoon period has been cut short and now people will be demanding a response, but what would happen if the Argies picked up a win at the fortress of Eden Park?
