Welcome to episode 98 of the DSPN - Devlin Sports Podcast Network...

  • Legendary All Blacks loose forward and former rugby commentator Murray Mexted looks ahead to the Super Rugby Pacific final between the Crusaders and Chiefs in Christchurch. Mex still isn't sold on the Crusaders, and favours the Waikato-based franchise for the victory.

  • Marty and young producer Lachlan Waugh discuss five separate sporting topics on the Tight 5, including the All Blacks team naming next week, and Crusaders CEO Colin Mansbridge banning cowbells for the Super final.

  • Iain Payten from the Sydney Morning Herald offers an Aussie perspective on the Super Rugby decider, and chats the upcoming British and Irish Lions Tour, which - more or less - begins this weekend.

  • Matt Gunn from Twizel is POSITIVE about State of Origin, the Bulldogs and Warriors, and hoar frosts.

All that and much more!
