ALL BLACKS vs SOUTH AFRICA & The Refs + Ben Stokes & England Cricket's Drinking Culture | The Agenda

The All Blacks are heading to South Africa. And the referee has a bit of a reputation. Plus Ben Stokes and the English cricket team's evolving drinking culture.

Tony Lyall and ACC Head G Lane are joined by James McOnie live from Biarritz for a genuinely varied Agenda — opening with the temperature contrast between France and New Zealand — before delivering McOnie's highs and lows from the Commonwealth Games (fresh from Glasgow), asking whether the appointed referee for the All Blacks vs South Africa Test is going to be a factor, and reflecting on Ben Stokes and the growing question of English cricket's drinking culture.

Plus Yours Please with your listener feedback.
