Basically a rugby podcast, so ideal for old people. It even has Murray Mexted on there for good old fashioned views. Next to nothing on the two biggest and most exciting sporting competitions in Australasia, the NRL and AFL. We even have a team in the NRL, the biggest rating TV sports completion involving the two countries.
Rugby should be included, so the older audience has something to listen to, but how about the exciting stuff!!
Devlin does great work. This interview of him by Mark Philpott is full of Marty’s intelligence, passion and common sense. If you love rugby and the All Blacks in particular this is a must listen to. High commended.
Would be a 5 star pod if not for the segments with Mex.
Great show Marty - some Auckland FC/Nix when the season restarts pls!
Love the show, more NRL please
