Great pod aside from Stephen Jones
١٦/١١/٢٠٢١
Owen Slot, Lawrence, Stuart Barnes all great, Stephen Jones uneducated views make the whole thing awkward.
Cynical.

I’m not a South African supporter but this podcast about the World Cup final is so cynical. A team won and the negativity around them from you guys I believe is extremely disrespectful. How can you complain about cards and then congratulate the referee…. You’re finding excuses to take away the boks win on one hand but celebrating the referee. You speak highly of New Zealand and every other country…. Pretty hateful to a team that had the hardest fought route to the final and deserves more than a one sided argument. If you want to be miserable and sour, this is tbe podcast for you. If you want to celebrate and live rugby, listen to a podcast that celebrates all of rugby, whether that’s running rugby, defensive rugby, low scoring games, chess battles, kick battles definitely don’t listen to this negative stuff
Yes to the Ruck - no to Stephen Jones

A great rugby podcast soiled by Mr Jones. His opinions often seem irrational and irresponsibly biased. His comments on the quarter finals this weekend were ludicrous (“DuPont was off his game”, refereeing has taken a massive step back”). And his loathing of South African rugby is palpable to the degree he cannot find a good thing ever to say about them. I would ditch him Mr Lowe. He weakens a great podcast.
Move On.

One eyed commentary facilitated by the Stephen Jones fan club. Lots of more insightful rugby intelligence available elsewhere. Don’t waste your time here.
Great weekly jnsights

Great panel and one up. Particularly like Lawrence’s facilitation and ex player insights as well as Jonesy’s controversial but stimulating thoughts.
1 star until Stephen Jones is replaced...

... and I would leave 0 if I was allowed to. I used to read the Sunday Times purely for their rugby coverage, I then subscribed to the iPad edition for the same reason. And I would eagerly await each episode of this podcast to hear the pundits thoughts and comments. I have found Stephen Jones’s increasing bias against English rugby increasingly harder and harder to stomach, and his incessant Eddie Jones bashing in particular has become unbearable. Today I got to the point where I decided I couldn’t listen any more, so I will be deleting the podcast. What was it that pushed me to that point? It was SJ’s uncontrollable need to point out - for the second week running - that Gatland’s selection for his Lions squad of certain England players who EJ doesn’t select is above all a clear signal of what a poor coach EJ is. This was totally irrelevant to the conversation taking place at the time and has begun to sound like vitriol, rather than relevant reporting. Interestingly, another very enjoyable podcast makes the exact opposite point about some of the England players that both WG and EJ favour. Other views are available, Stephen, but the more I listen to you the more I realise you aren’t capable of grasping that concept, which is not what I personally want from a journalist. Another point worth mentioning is there are far too many adverts in this podcast - you’ve got to sit through too many minutes of hard sell before you get to any rugby conversation at all. If you haven’t already tried it, I highly recommend the BBC Rugby Union Weekly for a really enjoyable pod, with a great banter from current/recent players and Chris Jones (lots of Jones’s in rugby!) the BBC rugby correspondent combined with excellent knowledge of the game.
You have allot to learn

I am a middle aged white male from a middle class family and I have to make a stand here. Please hear me out. I generally admire your views and opinions of our fine game. Whilst I may not always agree, I listen intently. However I have to remove this pod from my list and advise others to do so. Please listen to how intensely condescending and racist you are. At the end of your pod, you mention Gods, and Goddesses. 1. Ugo Monye for being the face of rugby against racism. 2. Pablo Matera, a man who wanted to run over black people. You put them on the same level! Seriously! You have the platform and this is how you use it! Disgraceful. You all made the decision to stream this content and I would be ashamed.
It’s a team game

This combo of insightful journalism (Owen Slot, Stuart Barnes) and recent ex player knowledge (Dallaglio) is a far superior alternative to some of the more laddish alternatives. Keep it up gents!
Another podcast for the English
٢٧/٠٩/٢٠١٩
Once again a countrywide publication talking to only English people and English rugby with all else an afterthought.
Stephen Jones renders this pod sadly unlistenable
٢٥/٠٩/٢٠١٩
Stephen Jones ruins this podcast. A great shame as the other participants are superb. Time to retire Jones and have Slot run things.
