Sports Huddle: Journalists Lavina Good and Jim Kayes discuss NZ Rugby governance proposals

Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive - A podcast by Newstalk ZB - Wednesdays

Former All Blacks captains Richie McCaw and Ian Kirkpatrick have urged New Zealand Rugby to change their governance structure.  Meanwhile, nearly 1.59 million New Zealanders have watched NRL matches on Sky Sport and free to air on Sky Open, a lift of 14 per cent from last season.  Sports Journalist Lavina Good told Heather du Plessis Allan “The Warriors don’t even have to win for people to love it.”  Good says “The game [rugby union] is in disarray. Everyone is watching rugby league.”  Sports Journalist Jim Kayes says “Rugby is still rating as well as it has done in the past – there's no reason why you can’t watch both codes.”  LISTEN ABOVE.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
