Maul or Nothing Maul Or Nothing

It’s an absolute bumper show filled with an A List cast where we get both sides of the story from a truly engrossing Premiership Final.
Bath’s back row bulldozer Ted Hill joins the boys to take them through what was a sensational performance from his team who came so close to taking the title. What were the messages directly after the red card? How has Beno taken the defeat and above all did they get to The Ship?
Ted also talks all things England, what Finn Russell has brought to the club and his Premiership Team of the Season (which is very hard to argue against)
Meanwhile the Saints are still on the smash and they’re in Benidorm (of all places) for Joel Matavesi’s stag…. Rory Hutchinson takes the lads into the heart of the action as the party seems to be ongoing…see how many of the Saints boys you can spot. Lots of questions to be asked…not many answers given... which Matavesi brother is in his budgie smugglers, why is Lewis Ludlam refusing to take off his top and who exactly is the best National 2 player?
In other news Max is back from South Korea having appeared to eat food that is very much still alive and Ryan didn’t mention golf, which is a relief

The boys are back into the league chats with Prem semi finals to discuss and a final round of the URC regular season to dissect. 
Ryan as usual was shameless in hitting up his old pal Finn Russell and his new pal Fin Smith for an exclusive chat, which will come, depending on who wins on Saturday at Twickenham. Read between the lines it was a straight no for this week although why Fin Smith was unavailable is rather amusing! 
The URC is into the business end with the last 8 decided. Toby Booth’s Ospreys squeezing into the mix much to the delight of the boys.
It’s safe to say that Ryan has delivered his albatross predictions so Glasgow might be in trouble. 
In other news, could all the South African fans hammering Max for saying yes to Steve Kitshoff’s tops off challenge (that Kitsy instigated)….. keep going on the viral post...It’s funny! 😂

How Toulouse celebrated their Champions Cup Win with Blair Kinghorn!
From riding a zebra at Tottenham Hotspur stadium, to Champagne goggles with Antoine DuPont, the scenes on arrival at Toulouse airport and the non stop partying since, Smaug breaks down the greatest celebrations of his life. 
He joins the boys from the lilo in his pool at his house in Toulouse wearing just a European Cup winners medal while his neighbour Jack Willis watches from over the fence.
We hear all about the celebrations, the partying, what the management had planned for them and whether there’s still some partying to be done.
We also hear about the game….
What was going through their minds when Leinster lined up a drop goal seconds before the end of the 80…. what makes Antoine DuPont so superhuman and what exactly goes on in Smaugs mind? 
Blair also takes us through the chats with Thomas Ramos around who would take the pressure kicks, and the not nearly discussed enough cover tackle on Dan Sheehan. 
He’s a hero, he’ll never have to buy a drink in Toulouse ever again…. Ladies and Gentlemen… Blair Kinghorn 👑

It’s the big one, the pinnacle of club rugby, two of the most illustrious sides to have graced the competition, Toulouse and Leinster slugging it out for their shot at immortality. 
Perhaps just as importantly Ryan, Max and Marc took their shot at hospitality immortality as they snagged prime seats at the final. The boys mix it with the stars on a glorious day and even manage to bring you some of the pod! 
Let the lads take you to the heart of a pulsating final, they live it, they love it, they breathe it (they drink it)...and Max commentates it...in his own unique way! 
Max gets asked to take his top off by just about every single person, Ryan gets pied off by Wayne Barnes and Marc is rescued from inside a rubbish bin. Oh and did we tell you we love Smaug?

It’s a bumper show with 2 of Rugby’s silkiest stars looking ahead to the most mouthwatering weekend of European Action.Aphele takes us through The Shark infested waters of a tricky URC season where Europe has been their only relief. It’s why Friday’s showdown has such an added dimension, it’s the be all or end all for both The Sharks and their opponents Gloucester. Aphele also relives his dream debut for the Springboks. I mean has there ever been a better first touch in the history international rugby? We also hear what it means for him and his family to be a Springbok.Meanwhile Hasto gives us an update on everything to do with Blair Kinghorn. It’s funny that Blair spent most of our recent catch up telling us all about Hasto…. Ah the star crossed lovers. We hear about the significance of this redemptive match at Tottenham Hotspur's Stadium, the fallout from that drubbing at the hands of the Saints and his move to Glasgow. Will Hasto’s GF be joining him or will golf with Ryan be too time consuming?In terms of the boys, Max’s season comes to an end but not before we wax lyrical about his try scoring prowess and London being painted Bears over the weekend. Ryan continues to play golf0:30 - Max’s season is over10:32 - Beven Rodd’s dive and the ones that went (over) before!12:10 - Max bagged another meat pie!20:50 - URC Roundup26:39 - Wolfcraig Distillery's exclusive offer for Maul Or Nothing listeners; https://wolfcraig.com/maul-or-nothing-wolfpack-membership/28:01 - Aphelele Fassi43:32 - Aphelele’s Springbok debut & future53:25 - Adam Hastings

First things first, head to our @maulornothing Youtube channel and subscribe for exclusive content! The boys are delighted to be joined by Springbok World Cup Winner Marco Van Staden wearing his scars from a bruising encounter with Ryan’s Glasgow Warriors. We hear all about the big clash as well as Marco’s World Cup stories, what the win meant for the people back home in South Africa and about the man, the myth, the legend that is Rassie Erasmus and what it’s like being one of his disciples.Max meanwhile takes us through the disappointing loss to Saracens and how their big name players step up at key moments and are almost operating on a different level. Unfortunately there’s still time for the boys to bang on about DIY and golf but far more enjoyably they also try to answer all your fabulous  questions you’ve written into the show so THANK YOU!!!
