Good show guys, brought back plenty of memories, I was like Donncha never said anything on TV that I couldn't say personally to the coach, player or team...
Love it lads, great energy! Thanks
Great programme lads and the last part very important subject to talk about fair play
Jesus lads, best show on any format, have a safe and peaceful Christmas and a Happy New Year all! #harmony
Great pod guys as usual, thank you for mentioning the French case and bringing that up, I'm not sure other pods have, and what Tommy said about bringing it out in to the community is a fantastic idea. Hope Santa is good to ye this year lads, Merry Christmas🎅
First time listening to this podcast. Really refreshing insights and honesty from Donners and Tommy.
Have shared with everyone-well done guys!
Brilliant episode again gents
Great podcast. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Great show. The 2 lads are everything that's good about rrrugbyy!
Second comment…also as a woman. THANK YOU for talking about consent and respect for women.
Respect is earned. By the way, most modern women don't respect men so maybe you should focus on fixing that massive issue before telling others what to do. You can take your virtue signalling somewhere else.
@ huh?
A dyson for xmas, ur some man Tommy
That’s so funny Donnacha -my mum had the same reaction to her foot spa! Never even tried it!
Love Donners honesty.
Great show lads
As one of your female viewers thank you for telling the story….as a warning to all others….
Homer Simpson-love that!
great podcast lads
Fair bloody play addressing the French issue. Other people and podcasts could learn a lot from you guys!
As I said under the Munster team post yesterday, convert Edwin Edogbo to tight head prop. Be the modern John Hayes. He’s only 3cm taller. (Antonio is even taller). He is so naturally powerful and v v young. It is possible. It’d solve the tight head issue at Munster if it worked and would satisfy the IRFU home grown props agenda.
Regarding the Champions cup, if the organisers want to persist with the current stupidity set up, imo, the only way to make it eye catching, is the back to back games. Revert to 8 pools of three, and both games are back to back. It’d keep the interest between teams between the weeks. Top 8 teams go through. As Donners said, Munster played Perpignan back in the day in the back to back and they thumped Munster in the return match. No one was expecting it but what a rivalry there and then.
The problem with a 3-team group is that one of the 3 teams doesn’t get to play each week. If Team A plays Team B, it leaves Team C sitting out the week. It would take 6 weekends for each team to have played the other 2 teams both home and away. Each team would only have played on 4 of the 6 weekends. There are currently only 5 weekends allotted to the European Champions Cup before the quarter-finals
Also, the number of matched played would drop. The current set-up has 12 matches on each of the 4 pool stage weekends, followed by a Last-16 round with 8 matches. This gives 12 x 4 = 48 + 8 = 56 games played. The 3-team group model would have 8 matched played each week of the 6-weekend timeframe giving only 48 matches. Also, the weakest team in the group might send out weakened teams in its final group game or games.
So was Craig Casey treated in the Children's Hospital after last weekend?
😂😂😂
I laughed when he was carried off. Poor fella like we all know he's small you don't have to rub it in
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
What about the home and the schools ?
Not a fan of Zebo on TV, to be honest, he looks like a knacker in glass slippers!
😂
😂😂
Zebo is great tbf and calling him that is vile
As a bar man since I was 18, I can't say I feel sorry for you working over Christmas for good money. Plenty of people doing longer hours for minimum wage.
I wish you well but I have to say I will never listen again. Why? Not enough rugby talk, too much 'lads having a laugh', too much pretending to be objective. It's ok to support Munster and even to be biased towards them, but it is boring when you try to present yourself as objective.
All the best.
I'm sure they'll be heartbroken 💔 😂😂😂 gowl
@MorrisdeSaucer 🤣🤗😘
Forced banter. Funny people don't force things. These two think they're such characters. Christ.
Thanks! Thought I was alone on that. “We’re just soooo funny!” 🙄
@@MrIanito I've nothing against either of them. I just can't stand when people force humour/banter. It's not authentic.
That's why I'm a fan of the KOKO show. The banter from Gits, Drew, Snoop and Prof is natural and actually funny.
Take a chill pill
Forced? They were on a team together 😂 how miserable are you
@@SmcdMcd-d2k lol What has them being on a team together got to do with my comment about them not being as funny as they seem to think they are?? You're not very bright.
