The Rugby Pod

In this week’s Rugby Pod, the lads wrap up the Quilter Nations Series before diving head-first into the return of domestic rugby, with big Premiership and URC results to get stuck into. We're also welcoming Springbok legend Gurthrö Steenkamp for an unbelievable deep-dive into scrum culture, Rassie’s revolution, and life in France. We check in on Bath’s statement win at the StoneX to Exeter’s comeback in Sale, plus a massive round in the URC as the Stormers storm Thomond and Scarlets stun Glasgow. The Rugby F.C. documentary has blown up on YouTube, fans are asking how to help Rugby Lions FC, and we’re back on the road with a London live show this Wednesday ahead of the Champions Cup kicking off exclusively on Premier Sports. Add in some transfer news, a few reds in France, and all the Good, Bad & Ugly, and some shoutouts, and it’s another stacked episode of the world’s most listened-to rugby podcast.

#12 Scrum Secrets with Steenkamp, Bath’s Big Statement, and Munster Stormed

Four happy men in the studio this week after a blockbuster weekend of Quilter Nations rugby. England made it 11 wins on the bounce despite late fireworks in their clash with Argentina, Jim’s beloved Scotland stuck a half-century on Tonga without conceding a point, and Wales showed real ticker in a brave performance against the All Blacks. But the headline act was in Dublin, where South Africa and Ireland produced one of the craziest Test matches we’ve ever seen – five yellows, a red, scrum carnage, psychological warfare from Rassie, and Irish fans and Boks fans going at it online. The lads break down the madness, look at England’s growing depth and midfield options, debate the Curry–Contepomi tunnel drama, assess Wales’ best showing of the autumn, dig into Scotland’s momentum and Townsend rumours, and ask whether France now boast the best young backline in world rugby.
