How will France react to Haka in opener? | RWC 2023 Official Podcast

Welcome back to the Official Rugby World Cup Podcast, presented by Asahi Super Dry. In this episode host Gethin Jones, is joined by a star studded lineup made up of Ex-France Captain & Head Coach Philippe Saint-Andre, All Blacks legend Joe Rokocoko & Ex-Lions winger Ugo Monye.

With the most anticipated World Cup in the history of the sport merely days away, the lads get stuck into the biggest talking points ahead of the opening weekend and don't hold back with their opinions. From Philippe's advice to Scotland to play a 2nd XV against SA as 'damage control' to Joe's memories of how their Haka and game plan fell apart when they were confronted by Les Bleus in 2007 to Ugo's rallying call to England to stop being so conservative and start attacking - it's all in there! Can Ireland make it past the quarters? Will Fiji top their group? Have SA peaked too soon? Do Australia make it into the knock-outs? Who will go onto lift the Webb Ellis Cup?

This is your definitive preview of all of the opening weekend's action, so sit back, relax and enjoy the Official Rugby World Cup Podcast, presented by Asahi Super Dry. #BeyondExpected
