Hated DB as a player, but probably because he was so good. What a brain though, really good insight and comes across as a bloke you’d love to have a beer with and just listen to his insight. 👏👏
I am a Quins supporter. Watching this (for the first time) simply had me chuckling, given our win at the weekend. We are I admit a tricky team to support as you never know how we are going to perform, but with my 30+ years of being behind them, I do know better than to doubt them. Let's see how we fair against Toulouse. COYQ!
You english chaps tend to forget how passionate we are in France and how playing away makes such a big difference. Sarries were overwhelmed and crushed in ALL PHASES of the game last week end. ( I also gotta admit that we had it good at the stadium bar with Sarries Fans ! ) Shout out to them
Bit of an odd comment. Jim Hamilton is Scottish and Dan Biggar is Welsh for a start. Also, they both constantly referenced how hard it is to play away at a team like Bordeaux because of the atmosphere
Don’t overestimate yourself lad, your crowd was dead quiet that first half. Harlequins and Exeter have both gone away and beaten french teams this season. Yeah sure atmosphere helps but it’s all that complicated why Bordeaux in, their backs are just 10x better than the sarries backs. Every single Bordeaux back at the weekend, or at least 5 of them are comfortably a lot better than their Saracens opposition
James, Andrew, yes and you Producer Rob, can we get Biggs to do his OG kick prep - the Biggarena - next time he's in the studio. His initiation for joining the pod pod pod rugby pod. Love the content. Top lads - even you Big Jim
Please can we get Dan Biggar doing Borthwick impressions within the month of April ? Great content as usual lads. Dan Biggar #classact and we miss you at Franklin’s
As an Exeter fan, I'm delighted with the win and am glad that when all else fails, we have the old reliable pick-n-goo. But what worries me is whether we can adapt to a team that defends the pick-n-goo well.
DB was a pain in the @rse for teams against Wales but seems a good lad and pundit. As a Quins fan this was a challenging watch lol. Not sure they’re as screwed as suggested though. Great podcast boys

As a Quins fan I'd say if Marcus if ever wants to be world class he'll need to move to a different club. He needs to stretch muscles and grow in a way that Quins just doesn't practice week in week out. Would be a huge loss for Quins but probably a gain for Smith
Be interesting to give Marcus test 1 and Fin test 2. I remember many moons ago when we had Geraghty and Flood when they were young. Up and coming. We played France in the 6N and I can't remember which one started but the other came off the bench and they both had stormers but then it didn't materialise. Hope it isn't the same with Fin and Marcus
I hope we give the 1st test to Ford, and the 2nd test to Ford. The Smiths will have their moment, but a bit of continuity in selection would do the English back division a world of good.
@@newchannelname3395 Good point . Looks like England have now found a team at last. We will get stronger now by drip feeding players in at the right time.
I understand what he’s saying about managing a game when you’re ahead but Quins don’t have the pack to play for territory. They have to keep playing the ball. They did win the Premiership a couple of years ago like that remember. If they had sarries pack then they might be able to close out games more easily.
Penaud is very like Talea for NZ, big, strong, fast, great feet, hands, always beats his first man and can do it for the full 80....like Biggar says, pops up everywhere, carries, rucks, tackles, does the lot. In comparison, Duhan VDM only carries effectively when in space. Doesn't kick well, poor passer, defensively questionable and goes missing for long periods in big games.
Nah definitely not, he’s more slippery. Feyi-waboso is more like telea. Goes into contact but then either makes lots of post-contact metres or slips out of them. Penaud just evades tackles completely. Best winger in the world though for sure
Maybe the fact that Dan Biggar has been in Toulon for a while now (bit different to the miserable climate at both Abertawe and Northampton), sunshine and melanin makes for a more glowing complexion - just sayin like 🤔
Dan Bigger is a great addition by the way lads!
I guess Biggar will have more time on his hands since Toulon seemed to have fallen out of love with him. 😮
He's injured isn't he? @@user-mh5yq1mm6e
Agreed. He has a great way of articulating his knowledge of the game.
Enormous improvement on Andy Goode.
Quality content actually praising the sport and athletes. Instead of always talking down about the sport like other shows. Great stuff
biggar is a class pundit
Great to have Biggar on the show consistently now!
Hated DB as a player, but probably because he was so good. What a brain though, really good insight and comes across as a bloke you’d love to have a beer with and just listen to his insight. 👏👏
Having Bigs insight is gold, good to have him on the pod - good shout Big Jim 👏🏻
Bigs is the knowledge 👌🏻

Dan Biggar is one of the nicest blokes in rugby off the pitch...

Pretty dangerous counter with someone like Hodge no? I never discount Slade at any level. Massively overlooked in my humble opinion.
Thank you gents great show

I think marcus smith is better at full back than fly-half.
As a Quins fan I'd say if Marcus if ever wants to be world class he'll need to move to a different club. He needs to stretch muscles and grow in a way that Quins just doesn't practice week in week out. Would be a huge loss for Quins but probably a gain for Smith

I remember Garaghty came on and looked really gifted and then nothing.

Quinn's play helter skelter I wonder how many people knew what the hell that meant😂😂😂 excellent use of language You're a legend Dan ❤❤❤
Dan just looks too young to not be playing..massive hole in the Welsh game.
7:41 STOP THE CAP !!!
Shut up mate
You kids didn’t watch the Bulls, did you? No-one who did would leave KLA out of anything.
They mention him so no idea what ur on about foo

@@jakeclough8090 agree, Penaud evades most tackles but otherwise, I see a lot of similarities with Talea.
The description ‘superstar’ isn’t a good one. Rugby doesn’t need US BS superstars.
No, but the marketing machine and the players want superstars. Raises everyone's value, kching!
At least now we know how much fake tan you need to make a rugby Pod
😂
