For The Love Of Rugby

Coley is simply awesome… calm collected insightful on the frontline, not shying away from anything, plus the benefit of in camp insight. Exactly the doctor ordered in a world of instant reaction, hyperbole, and everyone an armchair expert. And Ben’s rapid fire explanations highly needed, even if have to push the repeat button to follow at times. I feel its the best rugby pod at moment.

Dan and Ben are excellent hosts whose knowledge and passion for Rugby are apparent. Learned a lot about the sport via this podcast and I love to hear about the behind the scenes goings on that otherwise would have no real way of knowing. Great show even for those who may not know Rugby well.

Promising pod undermined by the fact it’s dominated by the posh clique mentality at the heart of England rugby’s old guard. I like the tactical and process insight. The honesty was refreshing, but Youngs parked that to whitewash Jones’ abuse of his teammates. It reeked of equivocation and cowardice.

As a rugby coach and player in the USA (from Cornwall though, it is great to hear the different experiences of the professional side of the game. It is a breath of fresh air. Both Ben and Dan have incredible stories that I’m sure can be told for so many episodes! A question I have… apart from the head coach, who would you say is the most important member of background staff in the Tigers, England and Lions Camps? Who do you look back on and think they made a real difference to the team and to you personally? Would be more than happy to take some kit off your hands, both personally and for my Augusta Furies women’s team I coach in GA. They are having their 25th anniversary weekend in September and are looking for items for their silent auction at the dinner. Money made will go back into the club and the Furies’ tour to the women’s rugby World Cup 2025 in England. (Will message on socials too) Many thanks Matt
