The Australian domestic season is done for the year, and what a weekend it was!

Super Rugby AUS comes to a thrilling end, Australia U18s clean sweep New Zealand, Australian Schoolboys cleansweep Fiji - and the future is bright. Nick W, Nath and Nick H discuss - and maybe talk about another Bledisloe match too.

WARNING: a few naughty words be said. We were depressed, be happy you're getting a pod at all.

The Dropped Kick-Off was started in 2018 by members of the Green and Gold Rugby news team. Featuring a rotating roster, we're seven blokes (sometimes more) from all round the country who chew the fat on all things Aussie rugby, sitting down with folks in the know, covering left-field and relevant topics around the game in Australia.

Opinions our own, and of varying quality. Come check out everyone's third favourite rugby pod!

Super Rugby 2026 Preview — G&GR's team podcast

They’re nervous, we’re excited.

Angus Crichton will Steggles for industrialised Kiwi meat - itself a bit yellow in colour as they sack Razor clam Robertson - as he becomes the 3rd Rooster of recent times to beg for the upgrade from avian to macropod. Nick and Natho are on board to ride the chocobo of delusion in this bloated metaphor.

They chirp:
Crichton! How good?
Our potential sumptuous backline for ‘27
Who else do you want - let’s get greedy!
Razor getting the cut
And fightin’ flowers at Tahs training
