Never in the history of rugby matches have we seen a game end with a penalty kicked short, the kicker making an interception to score in the corner and then kick her own conversion to win the game at the death. So, the morning after the night before, the Elma, Scaz, Mo and Meggy meet in The Cabbage Patch, where Mo had been crowd surfing only hours before, to dissect the match against their greatest rivals, the Black Ferns and pay their dues to Zoe Harrison’s self-professed ‘shit or bust’ moment of history. Meg tells us how she came up with the V formation to challenge the Haka & which Kiwi gave her the timing for the half way line approach. We also hear what Maddie Feaunati, the women who wears a Rose but could have worn a Fern, told the girls ahead of facing the Haka at Allianz Stadium. Mo also explains how tough it is to make the right calls off the bench in a game that tight & poses the big question... how many holes there are in penne pasta - answers in the comments, please! & finally, our OG title partners in the first two seasons of this podcast, have opened a new round of the Allianz All Together Sports Fund: £100,000 is now available in grants of £1,000-£5,000, paid straight to grassroots clubs for pitch hire, bills, kit, travel and subs, or whatever else you need! Any RFU, WRU, Scottish Rugby or IRFU club in Northern Ireland can apply and the deadline is 21 November 2026. Here’s the link to apply: https://www.allianz.co.uk/about-allianz/partnerships/sports-fund.html If your club gets a grant, don’t be surprised if we turn up with a camera! 😎 Happy listening & watching GSR fam!

We’re back in camp to get the Scaz & Mo’s reaction to the Red Roses' winning run coming to an end at Sandy Park in the first of three tests against Canada, joined by one of the most decorated players in the game and a stalwart of this unbeaten Red Roses side, Alex Matthews. She’s won the World Cup TWICE, is vice-captain of the Red Roses, and she has been in an England shirt since she was 17. There's a new face around the camp: Shaun Edwards… & the girls have THOUGHTS. Most of which are apparently showing off in front of England’s newest coaching consultant. We break down the Canada draw, including Sophie de Goede backing Kevin Rouet's call to settle for the draw on the final play despite being raging about it and we look ahead to the Black Ferns this weekend - which Alex says is going to be ELECTRIC. Alex also opens up about what it takes to be a leader in the best sports team on the planet as a quiet introvert. She’s living proof proof that the quiet ones can lead, too - even though she struggles with confidence at times. Finally, a public service announcement: Alex is also a tortoise mum. Join Elma in learning how to look after one, why he lives in a fridge over winter, and how he ended up hibernating in Scaz's.

Sarah Bern & England’s newest 50 capper, Holly Aitchison join Elma & Mo in Red Roses camp too. As two of the most stylish women in the game, Holly and Sarah let us in on their style secrets, how they shop and (crucially for Mo) pack for camp, before getting into the Sydney Sweeney controversy, an honest talk about overcoming anxiety, and how WXV is shaping up so far. We do actually cover the rugby this week - with a decent review of the Australia game. But as for Canada at Sandy Park? The girls are clear it's not a Rugby World Cup final rematch… and if Canada want to call it that, well, that's a them problem.

Season 7 is here! Elma, Scaz and Mo kick things off back at The Lensbury, where the Red Roses are training ahead of WXV - in almost EXACTLY the same spot they celebrated last year's Rugby World Cup win. They're joined by Megan Jones, Hannah Botterman, Amy Cokayne and Maud Muir to reminisce on that unforgettable night, dig into fertility support in sport, chat through the switch to the size 4.5 ball, and look ahead to WXV - including England's clash with Australia in Manchester this weekend. Three things to ponder before you listen... Why is Canada in America? Which Welsh word would you use to describe the size 4.5 ball? And what do you think Botts' middle name is?
