Studs Up is a podcast hosted by Auckland born and bred Riccardo Ball and Wellington’s loudest son Daniel McHardy. They’ll be going head-to-head on all the big football issues from the EPL, Champions League, the A Leagues and more.

On their debut episode, the lads delve to the Alex Paulsen situation at Auckland FC (0:30), reveal how to join the Studs Up! fantasy league (10:10), before looking ahead to the 2024-25 Premier League season (10:40), relegation beckons for Everton (26:45), plus the other sides at odds to avoid the dreaded relegation zone (28:35).
