The Lions have roared, and the rugby world is watching. This week on Rugby Unity, Eddie and David go deep—on selections, sustainability, and the soul of the game.

First, Eddie shares his take on the 2025 Lions squad and explains why the Maro Itoje captaincy is a story of personal growth, not controversy. He also discusses the strategic intricacies that could define the Lions' campaign. Meanwhile, the conversation shifts off the field, as David breaks down the worrying financial losses facing global rugby—and why straight talk and fan-first thinking are urgently needed to secure the game’s future.

We wrap with a powerful question: Why do we love rugby? The answers—personal, raw and deeply nostalgic—remind us that the spirit of rugby lives far beyond the scoreboard. Plus, the unexpected pre-training ritual Mark Ella had to do at Matraville High.

Rugby Unity is for fans who believe in the game, want it to succeed, and aren’t afraid to speak up.

One sport. Millions of voices.

EDDIE is back – but not like before.

Eddie Jones and David Pembroke reunite to launch Rugby Unity by taking us back to where it all unravelled. The Wallabies’ 2023 World Cup collapse, the media firestorm, the Japan job rumours, and what really went down behind the scenes.

Eddie speaks openly for the first time since walking away, owning what went wrong, defending what didn’t, and revealing the structural flaws that continue to hold Australian rugby back.

We’ll introduce you to Rugby Unity. More than a comeback – a new show, a new mission, and a global invitation to help shape the future of Rugby Union.
