Ep - 229 End of season review ramble...

In this last episode of yet another eventful but ultimately unsuccessful season we unashamedly put the stopwatch away and ramble on until we run out of gas. We chart our performances through the season and reminisce over the ups, the downs and the in betweens. It's actually quite a cathartic experience and leads us into a more wide ranging discussion about what coming 6th actually means both in…

Ep 228 - Derby day redemption but season effectively over

We look back on the excellent victory vs TFDTR on Friday night a the Gate which was a fitting way to say good bye to the leavers as well as purge some of the Franklin’s Garden horror from the previous round. We admire the endeavour to bagel Bath in the second half and actually come back to win from 14 points behind - despite one or two heart-in-mouth moments - and revel in some excellent…

Ep 227 - Worse than a shellacking? Lower than a nadir? We try to make sense of Friday!

It's a sombre pod and many things have already been said about Friday's chastening and record-breaking defeat against Saints across various platforms. There are lots of interrelated reasons why teams lose matches both contextual and in the heat of battle, but ultimately shipping that many points to a rival is almost impossible to comprehend let alone accept. How do you analyse a game like that? We…

Ep 225 - Bonus point win in Newcastle sets up Sarries showdown plus listener poetry, Red Roses at the Gate and ideas to fill the Atyeo

In this week's episode, Pete, Lee and Miles discuss Bristol's dominant victory away at Newcastle. It was another welcome five points but it came at a cost with more injuries to contend with. On the postive side we have two weeks to recover and prepare for the vist of Saracens which will be the 'must wins' of must wins. Can we get that irritiating North London monkey off our back or will the Death…

Ep 222 - Toulouse preview with Rosbifs Rugby pod - crumbs of comfort and food, drink and entertainment recommendations!

In this special preview episode Pete is joined by Rob from the Rosbifs Rugby pod. He gives us the lowdown on what to expect from Toulouse on Saturday. It's not particularly optimisitc but there are a few crumbs of comfort and who knows, stranger things have happened? Equally, or maybe even more importantly, the second half of the chat is all about what to do when you get out there this weekend…

Ep 221 - Good day out but a disappointing Men's result - pre and post match from Cardiff

In a slight diversion from the norm Pete, Lee and Miles record live from The Philarmonic on St Mary's Street, Cardiff, both before and straight after the game. What a difference a few hours makes! You can only say what you think and the Thatchers fuelled pre-match expectation and optimism is countered by the harsh reality of the post-match result. If that doesn't remind anyone of the fickle nature…
