Ian Prior is a former Club captain and one of only three players to reach 100 Western Force caps.

He's an adopted West Aussie too, joining the Force in 2014, seeing the Club's axing from Super Rugby and being part of the 2019 NRC triumph. He chatted to Cairo Takarangi on all that, plus fleeing Zimbabwe as a child, why he moved to Perth, family life, career plans post-rugby and much much more.

He’s heard all the wizard/magic puns before, so we waited to the end to ask about them, when Western Force off-season recruit Harry Potter joined the pod with host Cairo Takarangi.

Potter discussed his nomadic youth moving from London to Bristol to Melbourne to Sydney, his successful rise with the Leicester Tigers, playing in front of no crowds and a Twickenham sellout, why he joined the Force and the latest on his ankle injury.

Western Force Academy head coach Jeremy Thrush headed to Perth to finishing his playing days in 2018 after a decorated career that included 11 All Blacks caps and 100+ Super Rugby caps for the Hurricanes.

Host Cairo Takarangi chatted with Thrush on all topics, including his rise into the All Blacks, doing the haka, Richie McCaw and his favourite teammates, his move to WA and the long-term vision of the Force Academy.
