    Big fan of Marty and listened most days when he was on during the but struggle to be able to listen to the show on weekends so have had a look at the podcasts. What a mess!! Who ever put this together needs an uppercut, unnecessarily hard to navigate through. Probably the worst I’ve seen

Full Show Podcast: 20 December 2025

Full Show Podcast: 21 December 2025
Q: How do you balance the focus on player welfare with the uniqueness of rugby?
Our role is to make the game as safe as possible without getting rid of its inherent physicality, and that requires continual research and adjustment of rules to achieve both safety and maintain gameplay.
