The Short Ball

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.

Why is this stopping? This is the best rugby podcast out there. That’s coming from a South African.

Hello from the USA! I’m a big fan of the pod and have been listening since last year. I became a huge rugby fan 16 years ago when I spent a year on exchange at Otago Uni. I listen weekly when I’m in the gym and love the banter. However, I’ve heard Sumo make this mistake twice and since I’m now an international relations professor over here, I figured I’d write in to set you boys straight. DEFCON 5 is a good thing. The lower numbers mean that things are bad, with DEFCON 1 being nuclear war. Thus, I don’t think you want to describe the state of Auckland/Blues rugby as DEFCON 5. Keep up the good work. It’s not easy to follow rugby here in the states!
