Studs Up is a podcast hosted by Auckland-born and bred Riccardo Ball and Wellington’s loudest son, Daniel McHardy. They go head-to-head on all the big football issues from the EPL, Champions League, the A-League, and more.
On this week's episode:
Ric and Daniel are both in-studio together and start the show by reviewing the Soccer Ashes series, with the All Whites losing both matches against the Socceroos.
The lads then discuss Ange Postecoglou's managerial appointment at Nottingham Forrest, and what this might mean for Chris Wood.
The EPL returns this weekend after the international break, and the boys look ahead to all the matches from Matchday 4 of the competition.
Plus, Riccardo Daniel and dish out their best bets of the week with betcha to hopefully fill your beer fridge.
