Summary

It’s the last episode in Paris before the pod goes back to being weekly – so it's perfect timing for Ugo Monye to make another grand Rugby Union Daily appearance – right at the end of the World Cup! So as Ugo gets his “John Terry moment” Chris gets into the tournament as a whole – starting with that final between New Zealand and South Africa and why the Springboks are worthy champions. The pair discuss the newly crowned World Rugby men’s player of the year, Ardie Savea and why he truly deserves the accolade. And not only that Ugo and Chris pick their team of the tournament! Timecodes: 02:30 – Ugo on the final. 06:30 – Ugo on the Sam Cane red card debate. 13:00 – South Africa team appreciation. 18:10 – World Rugby men’s player of the year chat. 22:00 – Ugo and Chris’ team of the tournament. 37:10 - Eddie Jones leaving the Australian national side.
