Rassie's rants not the only thing that doesn't fit in an Irish dressing room. Whilst Jeppe was dishing out rugby lessons in Joburg, the Lions were doing it in Galway.

Two Scrum Wholes 20.09.2023 59:02
Four Scrum Halves =. This week is a special one as I'm joined by Austin (BokMemes) as we chat about the Bok blitz, the All Blacks Haka mystery and fresh anthems. The Irish analysis headache, Eddie's big regret and Pollards ability to play hooker make for a good discussion, but the shout out to the Pacific Island sides is what it's all about. Catch us every Wednesday.

Good Enough is Young Enough 23.08.2023 40:47
