      Damian de Allende – Walk the Talk Trailer | RPTV

      Springbok Damian de Allende joins Jim Hamilton for a fascinating chat about all things Springbok rugby, including RWC2023 and the upcoming Ireland series. Full interview coming Thurs 6th June.

      Coming Soon

      Great Britain Sevens selectors will be among the interested observers in south-west London on Friday, meanwhile, as the best BUCS Super Rugby men’s players compete in the inaugural Rosslyn Park University Sevens.

      And before that kicks off, a must-watch episode of Walk the Talk with Big Jim is due to be released on Thursday, as Springboks star Damian de Allende joins the show.

      Catch all of that and so much more on RugbyPass TV.

      Asia Rugby Men’s Championship continues

      Hong Kong China will take the next step in their quest for a fifth successive Asian title when they face Malaysia in Kuala Lumpur on Saturday.

      Despite conceding the first try, the Dragons kicked off their 2024 campaign with a resounding 52-5 defeat of the United Arab Emirates on home soil last weekend.

      Tommy Hill finished the match with 22 points, while Harry Laidler scored a brace of tries and John McCormick-Houston, Paul Altier, Alex Post and Charles Higson-Smith also crossed the whitewash.

      Victory was Hong Kong China’s sixth Test win in a row and means they have not tasted defeat in the tournament since a 16-0 home loss against Japan in May 2017.

      However, they head into round two second in the 2024 standings on points difference, after Korea opened the tournament with a 55-5 win against Malaysia in Incheon.

      Hwang Jeongwook helped himself to a hat-trick of tries, while Lee Jinkyu (twice), Kim Chan Ju, Lee Hyeonje, Jeong Yeonsik and Lee Yongun all touched down as well.

      Korea are also on the road this weekend and they will put their own title aspirations on the line against the UAE at The Sevens Stadium in Dubai on Sunday.

      Both matches are available to stream live and for free worldwide on RugbyPass TV.

      The future of Great Britain Sevens will be on display in south-west London on Friday as the inaugural Rosslyn Park University Sevens is held at The Rock.

      Featuring eight of the best men’s university teams from across the country, the event has partnered with GB Sevens to help create a pathway from BUCS Super Rugby to the HSBC SVNS series.

      Great Britain have committed to selecting between five and seven players who impress this Friday for their squad to compete in Rugby Europe competitions this summer.

      The one-day tournament will feature teams from the University of Bath, Cardiff Met, Durham University, the University of Exeter, Hartpury University, Loughborough, the University of Nottingham and Swansea University.

      Players to have emerged from BUCS Super Rugby in the past few years include Wales captain Dafydd Jenkins, Alex Dombrandt, Tom Pearson and Luke Northmore.

      De Allende latest to Walk the Talk

      Following in the footsteps of Ardie Savea and Pieter-Steph du Toit, Damian de Allende is the latest rugby star to appear as a guest on Walk the Talk with Big Jim.

      The Springboks centre joins Jim Hamilton to discuss his time in the game, from a tough upbringing in Cape Town to twice conquering the world with South Africa.

      Related

      De Allende provides stunning insight into how Rassie Erasmus helped lift South Africa from one of their lowest points to lifting the Webb Ellis Cup at Japan 2019.

      That is of course a feat the Springboks repeated at Rugby World Cup 2023, and De Allende was at the heart of the action as South Africa edged the All Blacks in a pulsating final.

      You will not want to miss this episode when it drops at 18:00 BST on RugbyPass TV this Thursday.

      Blues lose All Black for season ahead of Hurricanes derby

      As a fitness coach, I’ve always taken pride in guiding and inspiring others not just in health, but in life. So when I came across what seemed like a promising crypto investment opportunity, I believed I was making a smart financial move. I even introduced it to a few of my students, thinking it could benefit them too.But everything came crashing down when I realized it was all a scam. I lost $16,000. The weight of that loss was more than financial, it was emotional. I felt ashamed, devastated, and completely powerless. Nights were sleepless, and the guilt of trusting the wrong people haunted me.In the midst of that dark time, I didn’t stop searching for a solution. And that’s when I stumbled upon Hack Savvy Tech . At first, I was skeptical that I had already been burned once. But something about their professionalism and the stories I read gave me hope.And I’m so glad I trusted them.Hack Savvy Tech didn’t just help me, they rescued me. They recovered every dollar I lost, and more than that, they restored my sense of security and peace of mind. Their team was transparent, understanding, and truly dedicated from start to finish.If you’ve been scammed, I know how hard it is. But don’t lose hope. Hack Savvy Tech is the real deal. They gave me a second chance and they can do the same for you.Telegram @hacksavvytechWebsite: https://hacksavvytechrecovery.comWhatsapp : +79998295038​

      Blues lose All Black for season ahead of Hurricanes derby

      This has been a very distressful week for me, after investing a humongous amount into Coinpro, a trading platform that promised luring returns, their 25% interest on each trading was quite an enticing deal so I opted to invest £207,700 expecting huge and profitable returns, unfortunately for me I realized little too late that it was the worst financial decision blunder that I had made after they started taking me round in circles once I realized I couldn’t access my funds.

      I became frustrated and anxious upon coming to accept that I could have possibly lost my life time investment. After days of struggling with my situation I soon realized I urgently needed professional help, so I dove down to research on how to recover lost my funds, it’s when I stumbled on several testimonials about LEE ULIMATE HACKER an APPROVED hacker in all recovery problems, I decided to contact them via Leeultimatehacker@aol.com & wh@tsapp +1 (715) 314 - 9248

      ASAP and I was soon welcomed by good customer service from one of their staff, who took me through the recovery process, I had lost all hope but they gave me hope and within a period of 12hours I was met with good news LEE ULTIMATE HACKER and his team were able to trace my funds, this quick turn around was just the good news that i deserved after that traumatic experience I had encountered of not being able to access my funds, but that was all water under the bridge after LEE ULTIMATE HACKER kept their word and within a few hours I was able to access and withdraw all my funds. Contact LEE ULTIMATE HACKER for all your recovery problems.
