- Three Insightful Pros
Loving the new season format with Ashy, DC & Ugo fully focused on the rugby. Great insights on what's actually happening on the pitch and why - and much less attempting to create "journalism" out of off-field issues and the red/yellow card system etc. Keep it up, lads!

Edit: latest top 10s is great but a couple of episodes t... more
