The Greatest Rivalry is locked at 1–1 — so it’s time to take some receipts. 🇳🇿🇿🇦

Aotearoa Rugby Pod and Behind the Ruck reunite to break down the Springboks’ response in test two and ask the big question: have South Africa found the formula to beat the All Blacks?

James Parsons, Bryn Hall and Ross Karl go head-to-head with Rudi Paige and Juan de Jongh over what changed, where the two teams now sit, and what each side needs to do in test three.

Plus, we revisit our combined All Blacks-Springboks XVs, debate the selection changes that could swing the decider, and finish with some very different predictions.

The rivalry continues. 🏉

Rassie Erasmus and Dave Rennie’s off-field battle is becoming as fascinating as the tests matches.

After South Africa levelled the Greatest Rivalry series against the All Blacks, Aotearoa Rugby Pod unpacks the gamesmanship, late selection changes and increasingly heated debate over the scrum.

Plus, what the Springboks changed to win Test 2, why their aerial game caused New Zealand so many problems, where the All Blacks attack still threatened, and what needs to change before a huge third Test.
