The Howie Games

Off to Qeberha, we go... you'll even learn how to say that as you join our South African adventure.
Howie heads into the surf for a bucket-list experience. A tube at J-Bay! You better believe it! And somehow, no sharks. You'll feel like you are right there with us. From the meet-and-greet with Trev and getting a board, to the beach, the waves and all the action in the water, it's a proper surf day.
There's more Aussie banter on the radio, a good reflection from Howie about that viral moment, and we catch up with Sam Harper on tour before turning our attention to Test 2, Day 1.
The weather, the crowds, the atmosphere and a few fun moments with the Supersport crew. Another day, another adventure, and another little slice of life on the road with The Howie Games.

Test cricket heats up, and Howie finds himself going global!
From a catch-up with Matt Renshaw after a historic knock, and an emotional look at what Nic Maddinson has been through, to an early-morning breakfast and a proper deep dive into the art of slip fielding with Nathan Lyon, there’s plenty to get stuck into. We break down the craft, hear different voices from around the game, and give you a front-row seat to life inside the tour.
Then, Howie becomes “Australian Man” on global television, and the story takes off FAST. How did it happen, what was the reaction back home, and why is everyone on the ground calling him Australian Man?
Plus, Josh Hazlewood produces a career-best six-wicket haul, and Howie catches up with the Bendemeer boy himself.
Three Tests. Three cities. Three weeks. The cricket, the characters and the unexpected moments keep coming. Come along for the ride!
