I'm loving the mix of craic and rugby, kepp it up, please! There are plenty of straight-up rugby nerdcasts out there. It's great to get the player perspective and the stories of old.
My first ever game was Ireland v France, schoolboy section 2001. Absolutely amazing experience which 100% switched me on to rugby, when I'd only ever cared about football up to then.
Wow, it’s ruthless. The selection piece, how you refer to it as business. So much respect listening to you lads discussing, logically, performance indicators, merit. Like Elvis, we all come to a stage when we just can’t perform, no matter how good we played!!!
Another great show guy's. No bigger critics of the players playing and having a bad game, than themselves. Opinions are like a**holes, everyone's got one...as Donncha say....ignore the noise.
Met both your hard tackling brother Tommy years ago and your Dad on the Lions tour 2013, great guy and would have made a great second-row. Great fun to play with them. Donncha how's the chidren's books going? I wrote a few back in 1985, I remember being so worried the All Black coaches would think, what a wimp... good show
Brent thanks for all the banter over the years with mcguirk and hook . Great days and great fun ! I have wondered over the years how feel living far away from the place you grew up like so many irish have done. Again between mcquirk, hook, pope, o herlihey , brady, dunphy and Giles the irish were spoiled . Many times to panel was more entertaining than the match .
12:48 Was at the Argentina game and me and my friend were trying to get fields of Athenrye and chants of ireland and nobody was joining in. They didn't even sing the anthems
To send this Irish team.into a game against NZ with no warm.up game was criminal, who (IRFU) sent them into this ambush. Sheer neglect and hubris, handed over our 19 game run so easily is a disgrace . I dont blame the players at all.
Tommy Bowe did not enjoy the game because Andrew Trimble was side line commentator? When shaking hands with the President of Ireland singing the Anthems, do you not get cold and lose some of the benefits of the warm up?
I'll have you know I started a fine Mexican wave when then Barbarians played SA in 94. A Sunday paper gave the South Terrace "high marks in technical expertise..." My ticket cost £3 btw
To much crap before the start. They are trying to turn it into avent not a game American style 👎👎 then they complain there is not real rugby atmosphere anymore😢😢😢
Here lads, smart narrative, genuine passion, experienced professionals with no ego, class podcast, proud of ye
Best rugby podcast hands down. Two absolute legends.

This is as good as kick off and kick ons, excellent podcast lads. Great mix of craic and context, sums up what rugby is usually about
100% agree with the idea of having a kids area at the Aviva. Sets up the next generation and would help a lot wit the atmosphere
Easily the best Irish rugby podcast. Two players enjoying the craic, rather than weasel journalists huffing and puffing over nothings.
Great podcast… from NZ

Very good podcast, really enjoying it.

Honestly lads, you’re full value.
Lads this is top drawer!
I never comment but have for all the pods.. Class!
BTW.. no offence to Tommy but I dont' watch day time TV. Jesus he's good!
The small end should be able to to be converted to standing.

The president standing in the arena is tradition, so we cancel the Hakka, cherish it I say
The Aviva / landsdown has always been a snorefest
