On Sports Fix with D'Arcy Waldegrave for Wednesday June 18 2025, Colin Mansbridge has ejected the Mooloo cowbell from Saturday night’s Super Rugby Pacific final. The Crusaders CEO has caused a ruckus by banning the bovine necklace accessory from the Apollo Projects Shack. He joins us to explain why.

D’Arcy moans about the French side touring in July. As predicted, it’s low on quality because the French clubs don’t care about international rugby. Nothing new here, but what does this say about the international game’s long-term relevance? 

In the Chamber, D’Arc and NZ Herald writer Christopher Rieve, AKA Kel-El, speak of the bell-ban and the possibilities in State of Origin 2, staged in the very west of the west island, Perth. 

Big thanks to GJ Gardner Homes – New Zealand's most trusted home builder.
