DSPN -RUGBY · Can Australia SHOCK South Africa in Perth? | Tony Johnson Breaks It Down · 21 Sep 2026 podcast

This was the first Australian game. voice-verified

Incredible a and and yet somehow France, who was to say, they were down to eleven. voice-verified

They had a cricket team on the field at one point. voice-verified

Uh they had a player sent off for a a yellow that was upgraded to a red and an eye gouge, which is never a good thing. voice-verified

And yet somehow they managed to win the game. voice-verified

Yeah, I voice-verified

I've seen plenty of examples over the years when a player's been red carded and the team that loses a player to that red card have actually galvanized and gone on to win the game, but never before as many as that four at one point in time, seven yellow cards in the game at all. voice-verified

Well, of course, at the same time, the Black Ferns were playing against Scotland. voice-verified

Um in well, it's a it's stadium just right next door to Murrayfield. voice-verified

And they made a whole lot of change. voice-verified

I think six, seven, eight changes, brought some new faces in. voice-verified

And I guess if you're talking about depth, this was a bit of a show of New Zealand's depth ahead of the game against England. voice-verified

Got to say, apart from a period in the second half where they kind of lost the plot a little bit and got a bit raggedy and started throwing it around, once they got their structures back. voice-verified

Again, I I I think I I there's a lot to like about where this team's coming under Whitney Hanson. voice-verified

Because yep, still play the ball wide, still get the ball into space, but you gotta earn the right to do that. voice-verified

To me, I think the most important thing coming out of this is that the coach is back in control of the team. voice-verified

I I think under the previous regime that the players had too much say in in what was going on and I think that's changed and voice-verified

Everyone knows where the buck stops now. voice-verified

And there's some I mean Mia Anderson, for example, a player who when you consider some of the injuries that they've got uh in their loose forwards to see her emerging through that now got a really strong backup half back as well. voice-verified

That's good. voice-verified
