Great podcast
My favorite rugby pod!... I’m hoping this review will trigger an email or something... heck, I’ll do the thing with you from the USA, just come back! How is it that the STILL greatest rugby nation has not one podcast?
This was the best rugby podcast going and certainly the best covering Southern Hemisphere. Brilliant through and through. Please bring it back.

Keep up the good work fellas. This is really good listening and the humorous banter between Ali and the Ruru bird is pure gold. But you guys need to put In the hard yards and knock out an hour long show. Too short otherwise.
