    As requested, I've started this thread for all the episodes this season. So keep a lookout for this thread where I'll put up the links to all the shows.

    The best way of following the shows is through the iTunes Store. If you search for "Talking Rugby" through the iTunes Store search bar, you'll see our show page where you can subscribe and download the shows automatically.

    Our humble aim is to provide you, the listener, with some insightful discussion and analysis of the game we all enjoy!

    EPISODE 49

    Below is the latest show (episode 49), where we follow episode 48 which reviewed last weekend's rugby. In this show, we preview this weekend's rugby: Pro12, AP, Top14 and Rugby Championship while we also talk about Geordan Murphy's book and the Lions.

    Dave was unavailable so I hosted the show (beginning of a successful broadcasting career! :pac:) and I was joined by Doc and Michael.

    The shows just keep on coming! Given the last episode was only a review, the team felt compelled for another this week. So here is episode 49, which looks ahead to all the domestic action in the Northern Hemisphere while also previewing the upcoming games in the South Hemisphere's Rugby Championship.

    With Dave taking a break, Alan hosts this week's show and is joined by Doc and Michael, our Ulster exile.

    COMING UP ON THE SHOW:

    RABODIRECT PRO12
    1:00 - Munster host Benetton Treviso at Thomond Park, with a settled lineup for the home side along with a Treviso side much changed from last week.
    7:15 - After a disappointing defeat last weekend, Connacht travel to Rabo new boys Zebre in Parma.
    11:05 - The most intriguing fixture of the weekend sees current league champions Ospreys host last season Heineken Cup finalists Ulster.
    15:00 - A Leinster side missing almost an entire matchday squad of players host the Newport Gwent Dragons at the RDS. We also give a mention to Cardiff vs Edinburgh and Glasgow vs Scarlets.

    AVIVA PREMIERSHIP & TOP 14
    22:05 - We preview the weekend's games, including Northampton vs Exeter and Bath vs Wasps.
    25:45 - It's not the best weekend of matchups in this weekend's Top14! We also look at Rocky Elsom's future after a failed medical at Toulon.
    30:30 - We look back on Geordan Murphy's career after he confirmed his retirement from all professional rugby at the end of the season.

    THE LIONS
    36:10 - Warren Gatland was confirmed as the head coach of the 2013 British & Irish Lions Tour to Australia. We discuss his appointment along with the potential backroom staff.
    40:45 - The Top14 vs Lions issue.

    RUGBY CHAMPIONSHIP
    46:45 - Two struggling sides in South Africa and Australia meet with a big chance to prove their doubters wrong.

    Just listened to it, some good chat in there.


  • Registered Users Posts: 414 ✭✭DeDoc


    good show gents!


  • Registered Users Posts: 112 ✭✭Hyndsy85


    Listened to it at work earlier. It's pretty good. The only rugby podcast i was listening too was 'rugby on off the ball'. That one is usually just about 20 minutes long

    This one seems to be more of what i was looking for. Keep it up and i'll keep downloading it

    Well this week a lot of us got up in our normal lives (which we have!) so that's why the show got delayed.

    It's difficult to organise everyone for a show so we tend to just go with anytime that suits everybody. I suppose it is more difficult to discuss games from the previous weekend late in the week.

    Excellent programme this week.

    Whatever happened to Mike?

    Really enjoyed the SH perspective too. Would be great to have some English/Scottish and even them Welshies on board too!

    Daithi as a French ambassador is good.

    English Mike?

    He's celebrating a rather succesful weekend of 'bashing the bookie' as he says (and no, that isn't a euphemism for self-love!)
