We were very rusty but Western Force coach Tim Sampson was his usual brilliant self. Honest, insightful and generous with his time. A great way to start the season.

Join us for the 2021 Rugby Wrap Awards as we farewell the 2021 season. Thanks to everyone for tuning in.

Preview with Phil Kearns and Andrew Mehrtens plus full call and post-match review.

Enthusiasm is the theme for this week, with young Wallaby Angus Bell and Cottesloe veteran Tobias Hoskins just loving their rugby. 

Great to catch up with former Wallaby and ACT Brumby, Peter Kimlin as well as Western Force favourite, Jack McGregor, who'll go head to head in the Fortesque Premier Grade Grand Final this weekend. Plus the mail bag, Heath Tessmann and much more.

We take the show on the road and record live at the Rugby Business Network event, with special guest, Olympic Sevens referee Tyler Miller. Apologies for a few minor glitches with the sound.

Wallaby great Tim Horan shares his thoughts on the Bledisloe and the Wrap's own Wallaby great, Mitch Hardy, picks his starting XV for the first test.

Former Wallaby and head of Australia's RWC bid, Phil Kearns, provides an update, reviews the French series and poses the question: who is the better looking hooker, him or Heath Tessmann? 

Mitch Hardy and Heath Tessmann throw Mick Colliss under the bus. This is called the 'Scraping the bottom of the barrel' edition. Lucky we had the mailbag to salvage it.

Two blokes* talk rugby and share their thoughts on the make up of the Wallaby squad, among other musings.
*There was meant to be three but one was missing.
