Episode Notes

Why are Argentina so inconsistent in rugby union? capable of defeating the All Blacks, Springboks, or British and Irish lions, Los Pumas have won just one of their last seven test matches. Many people, however, think their coach Felipe Contepomi is working on a plan - a plan that could see them reach their first ever World Cup final.

I was joined by Argentinian rugby journalist Frankie Degas to understand exactly what is happening in South America and if Contepomi's plan is really working.

We also discuss the void left by the Jaguares Super Rugby franchise and what club rugby is really like back in Argentina.
