A big weekend is looming in the UK for two of our top shearers. New Zealand champion Toa Henderson from Northland and Te Kuiti's Jack Fagan will face the best Welsh shearers in the first of a three test series this weekend.
Last weekend, Toa won the French shearing championships. He's had a fantastic year so far - he won the prestigious golden shears open in March, shearing 20 sheep in 16 minutes, 15 seconds. Toa and team manager Neil Fagan join Kathryn from Wales.
