In the first of this week's episodes we wrap up Canada's valiant effort against England in the Women's Rugby World Cup, that saw them just miss out on a berth in the final, and New Zealand pip France in an absolute thriller.

We continue our look at the Women's World Cup and celebrate Canada's qualification for the semis, as well as some interesting action in the first two Internationals of the Autumn Series, even though they fell outside the official Test window.

We continue to focus on the Women's World Cup in New Zealand and a look ahead to the Quarter Finals. We break down some of the things we've learnt about the 8 teams that have made the knockout stages, with our own Canadian ladies managing to finish 2nd in the overall pool competition's seedings which secured them a quarter final spot against the Americans.

While our primary focus at the moment is on the Womens' World Cup in New Zealand we have a quick whip round of last weekend's club action in Europe.

We continue our look at this outstanding tournament which has had us spellbound since the opening game. Canada, New Zealand and England guaranteed themselves a quarter final spot this past weekend, while Japan and South Africa sadly will be purchasing plane tickets after the final Pool games this weekend. However, for everyone else the helter skelter pace of this thrilling tournament continues with EVERYTHING to play for ahead of the final weekend of the Pool Stages.

This week we highlight the start of the Women's World Cup in New Zealand, and which has totally caught our imagination. Canada got their campaign off to a great start but the tournament as a whole is a fantastic advertisement for the women's game with some outstanding rugby on display!

We look forward with eager anticipation to the Women's Rugby World Cup which kicks off this weekend in New Zealand and with Canada ranked 3rd in the world there's lots to be excited about. We also do a quick wrap round of the URC's first three rounds.

Now that the dust has settled on a highly entertaining and at times controversial Rugby Championship, we look back at who can feel pleased with their tournament, who has work to do and who did well statistically.

As this year's Rugby Championship wraps up, South Africa are very much in the hunt to lift the trophy, but even Argentina still have an outside chance to claim the spoils. Either way there is everything to play for, and Argentina in particular will be keen to achieve their best ever finish in the Championship irrespective of the silverware. South Africa in turn will hope that Australia can do them a favor in Auckland, as they seek a maximum points haul against the Pumas.

After perhaps one of the most controversial finishes to a Test match in recent memory, as New Zealand snatched the Bledisloe Cup from Australia at the death, we look back at a match filled with inconsistencies, but a thrilling contest nevertheless, and look ahead to the final match of this Rugby Championship for both the All Blacks and the Wallabies, still with everything to play for!
