    Where the hell do we even begin?

  • The Dropped Kick-Off 127 - Aussie 7s Drop the Kick-Offs
    Aug 1 2024

    We feel culpable. The Aussie Mens 7s must be avid listeners, took our advice too literally and decide to drop the ball against the Fijians.

    Ah well, the Olympics are only ever four years.

    Today Nick and Nathan talk about:

    • Olympics misery
    • Our favourite Olympic sports
    • Best players
    • The Rugby Championship Squad

    and, in a special announcement, Nick interviews his boss, sports administator Carolyn Campbell. Carolyn has run several sports organisations, from Volleyball Australia, to Netball NSW and NSW Rugby League.

    Carolyn and Nick talk grassroots, difficulties and challenges special to sports administration and community organisations, and much more.

    Have a listen!
