“It’s Impossible to Beat the Hurricanes” | Kieran Read, Justin Marshall & Jeremy Paul
About this episode
Kieran Read, Justin Marshall, and Jeremy Paul discuss the Super Rugby Final and analyze the Chiefs vs Hurricanes matchup.
The Super Rugby Final is here. Kieran Read, Justin Marshall and Jeremy Paul break down everything you need to know before Saturday’s Chiefs vs Hurricanes decider in Wellington. Kieran Read and Justin Marshall open with a no-holds-barred post-mortem on the Crusaders’ semifinal implosion — the complacency question, the Chiefs’ mental edge, and what Read would have said at halftime down 28–00. Then it’s full focus on Saturday: is the 10 battle between Reuben Love and Damian McKenzie also the battle for the All Black jersey? Who wins the forward arm wrestle? And is JP right that the Hurricanes are simply impossible to beat? Plus: Marshall’s never-told story about Zinzan Brooke making him feel like crying at halftime in 1995, the Luke Jacobson deep dive, a technical breakdown of the Hurricanes’ counter-ruck dominance, and JP drops a scoreline that has the boys howling. ───────────────────────────── 🔗 LINKS 🎟️ SUNDAY SESSION — July 5th, Christchurch | Tickets link below https://www.oldboys.co.nz/viewform/515859 ───────────────────────────── 📑CHAPTERS 0:00 Intro — Read & Marshall on Crusaders’ semi-final collapse 1:41 Was it complacency?
