Ep 177: Rugby World Cup 2015 Podcast - Simon Poidevin - a podcast by Green And Gold Rugby

Episode 177 of the Green and Gold Rugby podcast brings you the next in our series of Rugby World Cup 2015 Podcasts. The special guest on this week's show is arguably the most passionate man ever to pull on a Wallaby jersey - 1991 Rugby World Cup flanker, Simon Poidevin.

The passion Poido had (and still has) for the Wallabies is dripping from the podcast this week as he takes us on a journey from the disappointment that was the 1987 Rugby World Cup, through two retirements to a Rugby World Cup victory at Twickenham in his last ever test match for his beloved Wallaby team. As a close colleague of current Wallaby coach, Michael Cheika, Simon is then able to provide some fairly handy insight as to his thoughts on how this Wallaby team may go at this year's tournament, before giving us his tip as to who he would pick as the flankers for the Wallaby team.

Following on from our Super Rugby chat, Will and Hugh join me to wrap up Round 15 of the Super Rugby week before looking towards Round 16. But not before they answer the five burning questions.

The podcast this week is sponsored by the Queensland Rugby Union's Reds Long Lunch event featuring RWC legends David Campese, Ben Tune, Bobby Skinstad, Sir Graham Henry and Bob Dwyer. Go to www.redsrugby.com.au for tickets and more details.
