Rugby World Cup 2023: Can the All Blacks win another title?

The 2023 Rugby World Cup is kicking off this week in France. 

It marks a big moment not just for the All Blacks, looking to reclaim the world title as well as recover after a rough 2022, but for the sport globally as it looks to grow its international presence.  

It could make for an interesting tournament, with the draw limiting how many of the top five countries could make this years final match. 

So which teams could cause an upset, and how will the All Blacks perform after their up and down year? 

Today on The Front Page, Damien is joined by Elliott Smith, host of Rugby Direct, and the voice of rugby for NZME, from the All Blacks camp in Lyon.
