Ep.17 – It’s Cake Enough with Ox Nche

Rugby podcasters Brett McKay and Harry Jones are joined on The 8-9 Combo by Rugby World Cup-winning Springbok and Challenge Cup-winning Shark prop, and worldwide cake aficionado Ox Nche for another great rugby chat as we head to the pointy end of competitions around the world.
Ox takes the guys on a ride through the Sharks’ Challenge Cup triumph over Gloucester, about how deeply he studies opposition front rows and what sort of scrummaging patterns he studies, through all his favourite moments of celebrations with both the Sharks and Springboks, including the final moments of the RWC Final and crazy homecoming in Johannesburg. Plus Brett & Harry offer up some thoughts on the demise of the Melbourne Rebels after last week’s decision from Rugby Australia.
