Super podcast, annoying production

The analysis and insight from the team is superb; recent casts breaking apart how rugby is evolving in the Southern Hemisphere were especially good.

The producer for some unknown reason puts background noise (crowd, ref whistles) underneath the conversation, in soma cases making the discussion unintelligible.

Great Pod for SH insight, better on YouTube even

Great rugby insight from a kiwi point of view. Very positive rugby show and the guys know their ruggers.

My main insight as an English fan in the UK aside from seeing games or highlights.

Worth checking out on YouTube too!

One of my top new rugby favourites!

For so long I’ve been looking for a decent podcast in the Southern Hemisphere.

Coming from the UK always felt a bit out of the loop about what happens in New Zealand but this is different level!
