4.8 out of 5 stars from 38 ratings
  • In-depth, Regular, Predictable format

    Big fan of draft rugby. My choice out of all rugby pods. Why are they better than other pods?

    1. If your in a hurry you can find what your looking for because they do same structure every week

    2. They cover all the matches in super rugby

    3. They only discuss super rugby

    4. Only one percent joking around
