Wednesday 21 January 2026: Former All Black Lima Sopoaga on having Jamie Joseph as a head coach - Sports Fix

On Sports Fix with D'Arcy Waldegrave for 21st January 2026, after hearing the news that Scott Robertson would be leaving his role as All Blacks head coach, the next question became - who would replace him as the All Blacks continue to build into next year's World Cup?

The coach on most people's mind is Jamie Joseph. Lima Sopoaga is a former All Black and Highlanders player who was coaching by Jamie Joseph during that time and he joined D'Arcy to discuss what it's like having him as a coach.

D'Arcy discusses the Halberg Awards' favourite sporting moment category.  

And D'Arcy and Newstalk ZB head of sport Clay Wilson discuss the Black Caps' build-up towards the T20 World Cup and that French rugby have stated that they will be sending a weakened side to New Zealand for the Nations Championship opener later this year.
