Andrew: Rugby claim to fame: length of the field try against Bishops for the u12 C team Teams supported other than the Springboks: Stormers, Scotland Favourite rugby moment: every Breyton Paulse flick-flack Ant: Rug ...

It's been too long. The boys dispense with the formalities of hosting and somehow manage to cover pretty much everything that has happened since our last episode in the year 24 BC.

This is our longest episode yet, which reflects the colour, contrast, and quality of rugby on offer this past weekend. Two of the all-time classic Test matches played out in finals-worthy fashion, accompanied by another two QFs that were runts of the litter from the weaker side of the draw. Nonetheless, our very close games are closely analysed by …

This is one of our longest episodes, but also one of our most hotly debated shows ever.First, Andy, Ant and Phil wrap up the pool stages of the World Cup, who under-performed and who shone. Then, chaos and uncertainty reign as they turn their attention to what is a tantalising and incredibly equally matched series of four North v South battles in t…

Phil and Ant, our two Rugby World Cup correspondents and travellers, are hosted this week by a very jealous and lonely Andrew back in Joburh.

Andrew chooses pudding over podding and birds over balls, leaving Phil and Ant to rule the roost and run over the opening weekend of the Rugby World Cup.

The Springboks overran minnows Wales while the English tackle technique is proving contagious. Eddie "Indiana" Jones has bigger fish to French fry and what a ruse from the Wallaroos.

Andrew has a meltdown while Phil and Ant barely manage to contain themselves as the team run the rake over the Owen Farrell non-sanction, the absurd Wallabies World Cup squad, the lack of almost all first-choice international flyhalves, and New Zealand completely forgetting that they have a domestic league on the go. Some sanity is restored with th…

The Boks tinker with their lineup again ahead of the final round of Rugby Championship against Argentina.

History is made as the pod panel assembles in person for the first time, which is one more than Italy's Six Nations victories, Tuks' Varsity Cup wins, and the number of positive results in the Bulls last seven fixtures put together, all of which is discussed in the Pod's typically haphazard, vaguely informed way.Theme: 80s TV Show by @monstroid…

No, they're not talking about the decision to ban Rassie from social media, but rather the exclusion of a certain Southern Hemisphere duo from the official team of the year. In a rare turn of events, South Africa is the one shining light for the southern hemisphere, primarily because they know what necks are, and how not to touch them.Music: "80s T…
