@MN5

yep
nonu knocked out a lot of very very big names
might watch that bit again to remind me who they were

he agonised over cullen, they may have been in the same team in 2003
but he was obviously watching a lot of union in 90's when cullen was in his prime, while he was making the big time in league

TBH, I think because he was on a league podcast he was always going to wind up with a leaguie winning, might be different on a rugby podcast where I think clearly Ma'a will take it out.

Excellent podcast, @Nepia can certainly pick them better than he can pick movies

Conversely, your assessment of podcasts is much better than your assessment of music and memes. :squinting_face_with_tongue:

You leave my music out of this.

True, if he did this with Rugby guys you’d suspect Nonu, DC or McCaw would come out on top.

Interesting that he rated Sailor over Tuqiri, he probably thought in terms of league cos the latter was a far better Union winger.

I see the latest podcast episode is out, interested to hear Jipper explain the coaching dramas as last year the tune was pretty much the ABs weren’t to far off.

@Unite They completely avoided the ABs. Only talked about the Super Rugby season ...

I doubt that means they will be more critical, and will continue to tow the NZRPA/NZR party line.

The podcast (only listened to 1st half) was pretty worthless. Everyone's a great player and every team will make the playoffs etc ...

I only used to watch it on Sky as I could FF a recording.

That’s pretty bad, the biggest rugby story in NZ for a while

Tim

@Unite I guess they can't ignore it on the week that the new coach is announced?

I emailed them and queried this omission. Apparently a 15 min update episode will be coming out today.

Tim

@Unite Interesting. Guess that they can't completely ignore it.

@Unite Looks like it's here:

Frank

They appear distinctly uncomfortable just saying the truth.
James Parsons looks like he's about to shit himself.
On the whole, they are so non-committal.

sparky

@Tim How much did Scott Robertson pay them for that PR? They ignored the terrible results and performances of the last two years. Pure spin for the only All Blacks head coach ever to be so bad at the job he got sacked.

Rugby Direct will be publishing a Super Rugby focussed podcast on Thursdays.
