Thank you so much for the podcast I love listening to Eddie he’s always so insightful and interesting. Eddie is very entertaining.
Please! I want to listen to these insights! Give him a better microphone!
The host is painful and should speak less. Eddie is as delusional as always and shows he’s been lucky to get as far as he has in rugby. Ewen saves the pod. He is a loss to the game in Australia and it’s great to hear his views.
Far and away the best rugby podcast out there. Find myself desperately refreshing the feed to catch next. Hopefully it continues through the rugby championship and beyond.
