Noel McNamaraGUEST
I think there are, you know, for me, the referees have become much more liberal around the entry points.
Noel McNamaraGUEST
So, you know, there was an era and certainly around Joe Schmidt used to talk about the L and coming in on an L into the breakdown.
Noel McNamaraGUEST
Now, you know, there's a lot more freedom around side entry, I would call it, what originally was side entry.
Noel McNamaraGUEST
You know, if you're coming in on a 45, you know, even if you're coming in a little bit less than that, you've got freedom.
Neil TreacyHOST
Is the simple catch and pass like the most underrated skill in the game across the board?
Ian KeatleyGUEST
Do you remember when Joe Schmidt came in and he first came into Leinster and he said he was going to make them the best passing team in Europe and they repped it.
Ian KeatleyGUEST
Obviously, passing is one of the most important skills in our game, but it's passing, being able to perform those passing skills under pressure and it's being able to do those passing skills under pressure and making the right decisions.
Ian KeatleyGUEST
And to do that, it is going out and repetition, repetition, but it's repetition under intense pressure.
Jonathan DrennanGUEST
I mean, it literally took...
Jonathan DrennanGUEST
It was actually Joe Smith, 2016 in Chicago.
Jonathan DrennanGUEST
It was in Chicago, yeah.
Jonathan DrennanGUEST
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Jonathan DrennanGUEST
Yeah, so it felt, I remember saying to my parents at the time, I said, it felt like you were like the uninvited relative at the funeral.
Jonathan DrennanGUEST
And, you know, just the atmosphere.
Jonathan DrennanGUEST
You're nervously trying to talk to the relatives that were Joe Smith and Harry Wilson, who, I mean... you know you're given a player who at the time was it Fraser McWright who's probably the best person in that kind of situation in that you know he's very professional he will he will try to articulate it but yeah it wasn't I mean Udini is this most stunning place in Italy but it wasn't the nicest place to be after that I mean I'm expecting I mean at very least there's going to be a win I think against Wales
Brett McKayHOST
Well, it feels like a stronger, even more settled squad, Matt, doesn't it? Even with, you know, we're looking at a list of names here.
Neil KeeganGUEST
They were both ready for both passes.
Neil KeeganGUEST
And so they're both animated, as Joe Schmidt used to always say, be animated.
Neil KeeganGUEST
They were both pretending that they were going to be getting the ball.
Neil KeeganGUEST
And to see him fling it out 30 meters, just minimal effort.
James RochfordHOST
It's unreal.
James RochfordHOST
It's funny, the two head coaches in a row, you had Joe Schmidt, which we all did.
James RochfordHOST
That's right, yeah.
James RochfordHOST
Then let's kiss.
37 MINS LATER
Drew MitchellHOST
That is very good.
Drew MitchellHOST
What were the other start? Start one, bench one, drop one.
Drew MitchellHOST
Rusty Rasmus, Joe Schmidt, and Ewan McKenzie, all coaches that you've had involvement with in the past.
Les KissGUEST
joe russie ewan
David PembrokeHOST
And who's the assistant coach?
Ewen McKenzieGUEST
Assistant coach is Joe Schmidt.
David PembrokeHOST
Yeah, well, he's involved, as is Cron.
David PembrokeHOST
Yeah, yeah, he's Simon Cron.
David PembrokeHOST
Genuinely believe if Iketau isn't in the midfield, the Wallabies doesn't stand a chance against any of the best sides.
David PembrokeHOST
I think all the current players are doing everything they possibly can.
David PembrokeHOST
But if coaches like Dave Rennie and Joe Schmidt can't achieve winning records, then maybe the hard truth is league is poaching the playmakers that made the Wallabies what they once were.
David PembrokeHOST
Ewen McKenzie.
Mick McCarthyHOST
Has been since 2019.

Joe MolloyHOST
Uh, thanks for clarifying that.
Joe MolloyHOST
So then, I mean, the, the, the obvious question then a lot of people would have is, have, do we have that in our DNA, or do we have a bunch of Irish players which have come through playing structured rugby? 'Cause, you know, Joe Schmidt, where the, the, the Schmidt era is, is 2013 with Ireland, and before that with Leinster, so, and he, and, and the, uh, the influence he's had on the game here is seismic, I think.
Joe MolloyHOST
So we've had a bunch of school coaches coaching, uh, systems rugby and, and kids getting very good at systems rugby and perfecting that and winning schools cups and, and, and getting the Leinster and the Munster Academy contract, and then making it into the team and playing that systems rugby.
Joe MolloyHOST
And now all of a sudden, the paradigm has shifted, and it's like, that's all great and everything.
Cameron HillHOST
Forwards specialist Laurie Fisher is linking up with former Exeter Chiefs boss Ricky Pello.
Cameron HillHOST
Fisher left the Australia backroom team when Joe Schmidt's time as head coach came to an end back in July.
Cameron HillHOST
And Zimbabwe are preparing for Nations Championship games against Samoa, Uruguay and Chile next month.
Cameron HillHOST
That's before a run out at the World Cup next autumn, their first World Cup appearance since the 1991 edition of the tournament.
