Another blockbuster week on Millsy and Guy as the boys gear up for the biggest Test match of the year - the All Blacks take on South Africa at Eden Park this Saturday.
But despite the massive showdown ahead, there was plenty more to cover. From Southland’s Ranfurly Shield triumph to a wild Everest adventure, here’s the best of Millsy and Guy from the week that was.
MATT WHAANGA
The Southland Stags pulled off a massive upset, defeating Waikato to claim the Ranfurly Shield for the first time since 2011. Millsy and Guy caught up with Stags midfielder Matt Whaanga on Monday to unpack the emotional win. Matt shared what the victory means to Southland Rugby and the wider community - and let’s just say, the pride runs deep.
JOHN HART
The boys sat down for an extended chat with former All Blacks head coach and Kiwi sporting icon, John Hart. From epic tales at the helm of the national side to personal insights from a lifetime in sport, this deep dive is packed with stories, laughs, and plenty of inspiration from one of the greats.
SUMMIT FOR STRENGTH
An ultra-marathon from Base Camp to Everest? You heard that right. Three Christchurch mates - Josh, Brandon, and Sam - are tackling one of the world’s wildest endurance feats to raise funds and awareness for men’s mental health through Movember. It’s called Summit for Strength, and it’s as bold as it gets.
