Description

We’re staring down the biggest test of the Grand Slam tour, and Tony Johnson joins us from London with everything we need to know ahead of All Blacks v England at Twickenham. The selections are locked in, the locals are confident, and the bookies have England as favourites. Yep, favourites.

Tony gives us a proper look at the key matchups: the loose forwards, the new midfield combo, and why England’s 6-2 split says everything about how they want to win this. We also dig into the aerial game, the kicking battle, and what Damien McKenzie’s super-sub form means for the jersey.

There’s plenty about the mood on the ground too, from the All Blacks’ setup outside London to the realities of a massive, not-so-friendly Twickenham crowd.

A big week, a big test, and a chance to keep the slam alive.
