Take a deep breath rugby orgs, and STOP being so blatantly dumb.

If you missed the pod this week, suffice to say we (along with the rest of fans) are fed up with the short sighted decisions being made by rugby organizations all over. The list is not just limited to those on the graphic, these are just top of mind.

Shit streaming deals, inaccessible leagues, and constant bottling of things from the people running it. We talk about the moments rugby might actually be pushing fans away.

This one is a bit spicy 🌶 my friends, so bring something to keep you cool. We’ll probably piss someone off with this, but oh well. 🤷‍♂️

Rugby can’t get out of its own damn way. Fans want to love the game, but the sport keeps shooting itself in the foot.

Big week before we dive into internationals, everyone wants to end on a high. Comment below for questions and discussion!

We have #FantasyRugby lineup thoughts from @grumpyoldprop.bsky.social & @jarrodoftfry.bsky.social for both Superbru & our friends at Draft XV.

Comment below for Q&A, le'ts go!

Round two of Prem rugby brings the Yanks thoughts for fantasy rugby lineups. Starts of the Week for the boys both come from the same club. Ben has gone for the Leicester stand off, Orlando Bailey while Jarrod has gone for the ever reliable winger Ollie Hassell-Collins. Sits of the week are from the same game as well, Jarrod has advised to pine Newcastle's middle man, George McGuigan and Ben has advised against Exeter's number 10, Harvey Skinner.

Week 2 lineups have been released, you know what that means! It's time for some Free Bad Advice from your favorite Yanks...we hope. It's Start or Sit from #TFRY for Round 2 of Prem Rugby.

If not, we will look to fill their spots starting in Round 3 as we want to have competitive leagues with no easy outs week to week.

Share the word rugby fam if you could.

Cheers 🍻

We are hoping to get a big reach out to some of our managers in our URC and Prem Draft XV Official Podcast leagues. We have 2 or 3 in each that have not been active in Round 1, and are hoping they will change their participation level after this week.

And don’t work, we don’t hold back on the Prem and their decision to give @florugby.bsky.social by the broadcasting deal here in the States. 😉

The latest babblings of TFRY are ready for your listening pleasure

We are talking about RWC ‘25 and the final weekend there. The opening round of Prem Rugby and a whole lot more, including our admiration for Portia Woodman-Wickliffe (see clip).

Anyone got a connect with PWR or their stat provider, we could use a hand since neither has responded to us about this. 😔

The debut for Start or Sit from The Fantasy Rugby Yanks brings us to Week 1 of the Prem. The first Start of the Week goes to Adam Radwan of Leicester for Jarrod and Ollie Lawrence of Bath for Ben. Jarrod has gone with Lawrence's teammate Max Ojomoh for his first Sit of the Week while Ben has gone with Sale's Tom O'Flaherty.

It's that special Thursday edition of Free Bad Advice from #TFRY as we kick of the season of Fantasy (and rugby). This is the debut of Start or Sit with picks from @grumpyoldprop.bsky.social and @jarrodoftfry.bsky.social for both Superbru and our friends at Draft XV.

Fantasy rugby advice for your Superbru Premiership Rugby game. Jarrod and Ben favor Bath backs for Start of the Week with Jarrod naming Max Ojomoh and Ben liking Will Muir’s chances running at Radwan. The Sits of the Week flipped, with Jarrod naming Ben’s selection from last week Ben Spencer and Ben going with Solomone Kata whom Jarrod named last week. Good luck!

Premiership Rugby finals are here, last week to make a move in Superbru. For that here’s some advice from @jarrodoftfry.bsky.social and @grumpyoldprop.bsky.social. Good luck and enjoy the show!

The Fantasy Rugby Yanks present their rankings by position for Superbru fantasy Super Rugby Pacific teams. Both Jarrod and Ben like some 8-men, listing as their Start of the Week Christian Lio-Willie of Crusaders and Wallace Sititi of Chiefs. For Sit of the Week Jarrod has regular fantasy squib Andy Muirhead of Brumbies and Ben has this year’s fantasy disappointment of the year Rieko Ioane. Good luck!

We’re a few hours away from the Super Rugby Pacific semifinals so of course there’s still time for tinkering. Here’s where The Fantasy Rugby Yanks @jarrodoftfry.bsky.social and @grumpyoldprop.bsky.social rank each position. Any questions for your team, ask below 👇 or use #AskTFRY.

Big decisions for the Premiership Semi-Final weekend with fantasy advice from your favorite American fantasy rugby knuckleheads. For start of the week Jarrod likes Jack van Poortvliet from Tigers and Ben is going with Joe Cokanasiga from table toppers Bath. Sits of the week are from the respective teams of each of the fella's Start of the week. Jarrod says Solomone Kata from Tigers is to be avoided, Ben says his namesake, Ben Spencer from Bath is to be pined.

It's our other bit of Free Bad Advice for the weekend. It's the Semi-Final rankings for #PremiershipFantasyRugby from #TFRY. These are the thoughts for @grumpyoldprop.bsky.social & @jarrodoftfry.bsky.social for this weekend's games on Superbru.
