This week on the Rugby Pass podcast Scotty reunites with his oldest and best friend Mark Stafford in some godforsaken dark cold corner of New Zealand's South Island. They talk about the fallout from the grubby Bledisloe Cup test last weekend, and with the Aviva Premiership getting underway this weekend ponder the age-old question: where exactly does the balance of power lie in world rugby?
