On today's podcast - which features a number of great guests - It's Only Sport host Martin Devlin is particularly excited for one in the form of longtime All Blacks halfback TJ Perenara. The 32-year-old chats all about his recovery from an Achilles injury suffered in late 2022 and how he's managed to get back into the All Blacks selection picture for 2024.
Before that though, Devlin delivers a sermon on swimming. Tuesday was a good day for Kiwi swimmers with the New Zealand Olympic team named for Paris 2024, but a dark cloud continues to hang over the sport, following recent revelations Chinese athletes were somehow cleared of doping despite testing positive for banned substances before the Tokyo Games in 2021.
As well as that, Swimming NZ high performance coach Gary Francis joins the show to talk the naming of that Olympic team, Rugby League Hour co-host Tony Kemp delves into Jason Demetriou's sacking as coach of South Sydney, and Wellington Phoenix veteran David Ball talks the team's viewing plans for tonight's Central Coast-Adelaide United A-League football clash that'll decide the winner of the Premiers Plate.
Plus, Devlin and producer Lachlan Waugh discuss Demetriou and the wider NRL, Perenara's All Blacks chances, the NBA playoffs, and more on the Tight 5. All that and much more!
