Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

25: Blindside: Rocky Clark
Q: Was it sweeter because, when you finally did win in 2014, was it sweeter because of those, well, I guess it was two losses at that point that you showed in the finals?
Yes, it was definitely third time lucky, and winning the World Cup Final in 2014 brought back the relief of finally achieving that dream.
25: Blindside: Rocky Clark
Q: Can you talk us through that moment in 2003 when you did win your first cap?
It came out of the blue and I'll be honest, it was one of the worst experiences of my life getting my first cap when we're in Canada.
26: Blindside: Matt Banahan
Q: What is it like from a mentality perspective when your coach has picked a team to nullify an opposition's strength?
Players can either take offense to their selection or actively work on their weaknesses to showcase their skills next time. The mindset is crucial in handling selection disappointment.
26: Blindside: Matt Banahan
Q: Matt, where are your aspirations as regards next year? What would you really see as an excellent performance in Scotland?
Winning the World Cup is obviously the goal, but growing depth in the team is also important. The objective is for players to express themselves and establish a strong team platform as they head into the Six Nations.
23: Blindside: Luke Pearce
Q: How do you run through a process of reviewing yourself?
Luke discusses the importance of assessing whether his officiating fits the needs of each game, rather than solely adhering to a strict set of laws.
