We’ve got a special episode of The Roar’s Game of Codes podcast for you rugby lovers.

On Episode 57, we give this weekend’s Rugby World Cup final the treatment it deserves with a bumper mega-preview, making the case for both sides to win the trophy, before ultimately delivering our verdict on the winner, margin, first try-scorer and man of the match. We’re joined for this by Roar rugby expert Brett McKay

Then, we discuss the latest goings-on in the world of the NRL, with Roar rugby league expert AJ Mithen. We start off the news of Sam Burgess’ sudden retirement, what it means for South Sydney going forward as well as whether the NRL should give the Rabbitohs cap relief for the rest of his deal.

Then, we dissect the 2020 NRL fixture and make a call on who the biggest winners and losers are ahead of next season.

Finally, we finish up in cricket with Roar expert and editor Scott Pryde. We look at the surprisingly strong Australia A side named to take on Pakistan, before making a call on who’s most likely to earn a baggy green.
