    Ep 189 - Bears Men successfully wing it against Falcons but the Women lose their way at Trailfinders

    As we head towards the Six Nations break we are sitting pretty in second place in the Prem table on 40 points. It might have been a bit of a topsy turvey win against Falcons that we appeared to try and win at least three times, but ultimately we scored 8 tries and pulled away in the final 'quarter'.We break down the game in our somewhat cheery and rambly way as well as going off on a few tangents with thoughts on whether we should sign Santi Carreras and whether it was appropriate for th...

    Ep 187 - Bears Men edge the Andy Uren derby and Ilona does a Jonah as the Women beat Chiefs

    The boys come together at the Bristol Beer Factory after a couple of cheeky pints to review the narrow victory at the Gate aganst Benetton. It was an inconsistent win but with plenty to be postive about despite almost losing at the end. Before that though, Miles issues a public apology to the whole Italian nation and we run through a large list of people who we saw at the game.We then offer our analysis based on what we could actually remember as well as broadening the discussion to all ...

    Ep 186 - A winless weekend for both teams and Andy Uren joins us to chat all things Italian

    So, after the Christmas comedown, a visit to Saracens was always going to be a tough assignment given their team and our track record in North London. In the end a cheeky point was probably about right although we did look a few gift horses in the mouth and on another day we might have left with a few more.The Bears Women were also in action today with nearly 10K fans at Ashton Gate keen to catch a glimpse of Ilona Maher and equally as importantly, a league victory. They got the fir...

    Ep 185 - Bears lose the festive fixture (again) but it's not all bad!

Welcome Mr Dave Attwood for his second appearance on the pod!Dave breaks down Friday's disappointing result from a recent player's perspective and we jump on his bandwagon to give our view from the stands.Ultimately we decide that it's a blip that needs to be flushed down the toilet and never be mentioned again.That said, we continue with our listener p...

    Ep 184 - Bears maul Tigers

    We are back after a two week break and dive straight into a quick review of the tough European campaign. A great effort from the lads away at La Rochelle but ultimately we are sitting at the bottom of the table. We briefly discuss what this might mean for the ‘Andy Uren derby’ when Benetton come to town in January and then swiftly move on to more pressing matters…You know…The rugby massacre at Welford Road.We do our best to give justice to the record-breaking events that unfolded on Sat...

    Ep 183 - Leinster 'trip' Bears' first half switch and bench press to victory in the second

    In a very short late Sunday night post-match pod Pete and Miles reflect on the defeat to Leinster at a very windy Ashton Gate.Lets be honest - they were lucky to be 7-7 at the break having lost two men to the bin and struggling to find a way through the Bristol's inspired defence that also had to contend with the loss on AJ MacGinty after 5 mins, and a reshuffle that put BJVR at fly half.However, they were lucky enough to have both a World Cup winner and runner up on the bench alongside the p...
