It’s gas. Very entertaining pod and really like the two guys but they seem so sure that they’ve loads of great players but the @huwgriffinrugby.bsky.social URC pod today shatters that illusion pretty convincingly!

Reminds me a little of us with Gatland and his all too brief time with us. If ye let Franco go somewhere else before he gets a chance to coach the national side, it’d be unforgivable!

That’s fair. Think next week is crucial for ye - if you beat us even if you don’t win the championship, that’ll be some year after a tough autumn

This is totally right but in fairness to Youngs and the English reaction, the Scots wanted to sack Toonie after they lost in Italy and we (the Irish) thought our lack of bonus point was poor. Our win seems impressive now! Menoncello is so special though - what a game yesterday.

Think it’s because Gregor slept on him too - How has Duhan kept him out for so long - he’s so good and always has been anytime I’ve seen Glasgow

Spurs fans missing Levy yet?

Simply magic. What a performance - JGP out of this world but special performances from 1 to 23. πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

Total folklore shit. Unplayable and perfect today. One of the all-time great scrum-half performances.

Once again, can we stop with referee columns in national newspapers and indeed on world rugby website 😑

Great performance yet again. Total class from Lamaro to acknowledge that after such a tough loss πŸ‘πŸ‘

Totally agree. Really excited that Cian P is playing / just a shame Edogbo not involved but understand why.

Huw, I’ve no idea. It’s been great supporting them as all games are close and we’ve still won 11 in a row! But I’ve no idea where our ceiling is so no idea how we’ll go in the big games later

Was roaring for Connors and not understanding why he doesn’t start but fair play to Penney, good shifts both tonight and recently

They were about to get a chance to get within 9 against the wind. One missed touch and 23 down, game over. Tough for him, he’s better than this. Gleeson and Edogbo looking good

Feeling sorry for Butler at this point.

Robbie, you’ve enhanced my love of this game so much. Look forward to the next phase of @squidgerugby.bsky.social but above all look after yourself. Your second channel is amazing and happy to see more of that content.

The march on Lansdowne Road: The amazing story of how the passion of a province saved Connacht from extinction How did we get here? This week has truly hammered home just how much Connacht rugby has grown – their first Guinness Pro12 semi-final against Glasgow this afternoon comes days after the unveiling of a...

@eljgales2.bsky.social reminded me of this last night.

Connacht fans fought back from a position of comparative weakness.

Ospreys fans need to organise; demonstrate, march, canvas politicians, etc. Cardiff fans should join them. Don't take this lying down FFS!

1/4 The Ospreys have the strongest track record of any region in the game. The club and its fans should never be treated by the WRU in the way we have seen in recent days.

Exactly this. Shame yet again on the WRU.

My thoughts are with all Ospreys fans at this time.

This is a disgrace.

The WRU is a disgrace.

Y11 are a disgrace.

I don't think I'll be able to say anything that others haven't, but this is gross and horrible and I honestly don't know where we go from here as a rugby club or nation. It's cultural vandalism of one of Wales' most important community assets.

Fantastic episode - learnt so much and hope the WRU are listening to Nicks advice/insight. Indeed hope all unions are. Thanks to @huwgriffinrugby.bsky.social and @nicksjj.bsky.social
