LISTEN: The Extra Time podcast debate which drums up more excitement – the All Blacks v Wallabies, or the Farah Palmer Cup final? 

The Bledisloe Cup is yet to be decided. There have been a few changes to both the All Blacks and Wallabies sides and Australia is set to host their first rugby test of the year.

But RNZ’s Extra Time panel are struggling to get excited for Saturday’s showdown between the All Blacks and Wallabies in Sydney.

There is, however, a lot of interest in the Farah Palmer Cup final, with Waikato attempting to wrest the title off Canterbury who have held it for the last three years. The game will double as the first trial for the Black Ferns selectors.


Join Barry Guy, Joe Porter, Hamish Bidwell and Alice Soper as they discuss the All Blacks-Wallabies clash and the finale of the national women’s competition.
