2023 was a year of dashed hopes for sports fans, with New Zealand missing the mark at four separate world cups.
Now, with a new All Blacks coach, stadium proposals for downtown Auckland, and the Olympics on the horizon, our athletes will be dusting themselves off and looking towards the future.
So will Scott Robertson be able to make his mark on the All Blacks? Can the Up the Wahs phenomenon take the Warriors further than last year? And who is going to bring home the Olympic gold?
To preview the year ahead for Kiwi sports, we’re joined on The Front Page by Newstalk ZB sports journalist and co-host of the Rugby Direct podcast, Elliott Smith.
