ODT Rugby Chat: Referees aiming high
On ODT Rugby Chat this week, brought to you Garador, we move from players to referees and talk to two of Otago's best in Erin Doherty and Jackson Brierly. We talk to Erin about her eight years refereeing in the province, becoming an established Premier grade referee and her debut in Super Rugby Aupiki this year. We ask up-and-comer Jackson about his journey with the whistle from a 14-year-old in Northland to Otago, and where he hopes to take it. We check in on crowd behaviour towards referees and whether the judicial system works in Dunedin. We find out which games they are doing this weekend and try to squeeze some predictions out of them.

Rugby Chat with centurions Hame Toma and Aleki Morris
On ODT Rugby Chat this week, brought to you by Garador, we go old school and catch up with a couple of centurions. They are Hame Toma (the Bruise) from the Sharks, who played his 150th game against Taieri at the weekend, and Aleki Morris from Harbour, who brought up the ton against Taieri a few weeks ago. PD asks what has kept them in the game for so long and at one club? We talk through the highs and lows of their careers and how much longer they'll be in the game. We finish with how did Harbour lose the game to Varsity at the weekend? And how did Dunedin nearly squander a 33-point lead against the Eels?
