On Sports Fix with D'Arcy Waldegrave for 8th October 2025, earlier today it was announced that 8 international rugby unions had banded together, stating that any player that signs on the dotted line for the Rugby 360 competition will not be eligible for international selection.

This is despite people from the competition stating that players will be available for the international windows. D'Arcy caught up with the head of the NZ Rugby Players Association Rob Nichol to find out the latest news on the competition.

D'Arcy shares his thoughts on why only 7 All Blacks being released for NPC quarter final duty isn't enough.

And D'Arcy and Aotearoa Rugby Pod host Ross Karl discuss the latest on Rugby 360 and LeBron James's "big announcement" and the repercussions that had on Lakers tickets sales.
