In this heartfelt interview, DSPN host Martin Devlin is joined by All Blacks icon Murray Mexted to firstly reflect on the life and times of Stu Wilson, who earlier this week died aged 70. Mex, a long-time friend and teammate, recalls sharing a coffee and a laugh with Wilson just hours before his death, describing him as positive, and larger than life. Mex and Marty reflect on Wilson’s extraordinary rugby career, his elusive brilliance on the wing, uncanny anticipation, and game-changing presence. Then, the pair discuss the Super Rugby Pacific playoffs with a focus on the Blues and Crusaders' recent wins, and the semifinals coming up. Mex and Marty also touch on the All Blacks loose forwards and who they think should be starting at 6, 7 and 8 when the test season begins.
