Me and my mates were in Newcastle watching the final and Goode was in normal clothes in a kebab shop about 3am, what a guy to stick the kit on and carry on going!
Big shout out to Joe Shaw at Saracens, he’ll have been a big reason for the culture there. Played in Hong Kong with him at Kowloon , created a family first, team came after. Brilliant way to do it
I'm South African and I appreciate northern hemisphere rugby but I feel like there was lack of creativity from the backs in the Saracens vs Leinster game,the physicality was top notch,defense of both teams was superb and Billy Vunipoli was awesome to watch 👍
I can't think of a game I'd rather watch less than Sarries v Leinster, even the highlights were putting me to sleep. If that's the way to win Championships I'm quite happy coming in 5th.
You're right, lack of flair, and as a sarries supporter I noticed that the attack wasn't the usual slickness with pullback passes etc, but that's because the defenses were so good it was nullified. Watch Ireland/England Vs NZ, NZ were reduced to similar rugby when their attack was shutdown.
A lot of people have mentioned how there was a lack of attacking flair in the sarries Leinster game. I also noticed but I realised it's because both defenses were so good that was all nullified, and both teams were quick enough to react, sarries doing so even quicker as Leinster was caught behind the gainline a few times. There was still quality skill, such as Maitland's try with Goode's beautiful dummy catch and Farrell's tip
My favourite rugby podcast ! Something for everyone in this episode ... what’s the plan for the summer guys ? Guests ... World Cup warm ups ? The occasional odd other sportsperson maybe ..... ? 👍🏻🙃
I always considered Hask' a walking penalty, but he did get better and better. You have to admire anyone who grafts so hard and puts their body on the line like he did.
Excellent revelation about Rob Andrew at the end there. After his accusations years ago about the Gloucester supporters anything that can embarrass or show him up has to be a good thing in my eyes.
@@daikayll1897 he was Newcastle Dor and accused us of racially abusing one of his players. We may be massively one eyed at Gloucester but I've never heard anything racist. He repeated the accusations in the press. Glos owner Tom Walkinshaw barred him from Kingsholm and it all got very messy.. he eventually issued a very weasely apology and the ban was lifted...in time for us to play Newcs in the playoffs...I think we scored just shy of 60 and they didn't.! That's the potted version, the whole think went on for weeks.
Thanks Steve. Guessing you pissed yourself ( pun intended ) when they told the story of Andrew pulling his pants and trousers down for his little wee wee ! Embarrassing that.
Anyone else found chanel 4 final coverage too claustraphobic ? It jumped around from close up to close up with the odd expansive shot but not enough to give me a decent overall veiw.
If there's one thing I learned from watching the game on Channel 4, it's a message to all of you Alex Payne haters on here - I would rather watch Alex teabag my lovely old mother, on the hour, every hour, than listen to that bingo-caller voiced taint Miles Harrison ramble his way through a string of pointless non sequiturs any day of the week. I long for the day when Bill McLaren's zombie rises from his unhappy grave and seeks out Harrison with a bottle of BBQ sauce.
Problem with Alex, Tinds was about to talk about Balshaws mates getting into a fight with 'chipmunk' Ronaldinho's people, Interesting story. Alex ran interference and changed the subject. He does that all the time.
Richard Burton who was mad on rugby was once asked about playing against Micky Steele Bodger and what was it like, said, He most certainly does, brilliant I thought, hope the story is true but either way it makes me laugh.
Retired due to a hurty toe? Cricketer Fred Titmus lost four toes in a boating accident in the late 60s and was still playing for England in the mid-70s, at age 42. HTFU Hask!
First, depends which four toes. Second, that's cricket and the way an athlete goes about playing cricket is different to rugby and so the effect of an injury will differ. And 3rd, it's James' big toe - 85% of foot control comes from the big toe and is most significant in control and balance. This isn't a world of 'just man up and shake it off' anymore - it's important to address and manage issues properly and Haskell and the medics will know more about his ability to carry on with rugby than anyone else. Grow up and be more considerate.
@@jonnybaynham1689 Yep. Titmus was fine because he still had his big toe. I don't know but I assume that it is the big toe that is Haskell's problem, hence he it is impossible to play with it crocked. My comment was obviously in jest, but as it's the internet, tragic humourless fucks have to take everything seriously.
Wow, being a Leinster fan this was so sychophantic about Sarries especially from Alex. Sarries were not dominant in the first half, but did look like they could come back. No mention of the fact that Sarries were miles offside in defence for most of the game. I was at the match in Newcastle and every single local we met over the weekend wanted Leinster to win. Also why were there no TV screens for the fans to watch replays in the stadium??
on the shoes comments hask with the cost of hotels you have to to walk for miles to get to the game to watch you boys! not complaining but you need to consider the factors ?
It was definitely Jessica Ennis-Hill and not Kelly Holmes who threatened to remove her name from a stand at Sheffield United's ground if they re signed Ched Evans. Kelly Holmes had absolutely nothing to do with Ched Evans.
His whole schtick is being insincere in a posh way. And the insincere "oh really?" is drilled into posh people from childhood. His insincerity makes him a good interviewer when he keeps himself out of it and just sticks to asking questions and he has Haskell there to provide some life to the interview. Him and Tinds and some dull woman/ journo just makes it boring. The 3 of them together works.
They went down the virtue signalling route with the Israel folau episode and then the women's rugby episode. Lost its spice. Haskell going complaining about the sanitised corporate world is ironic..
@@powerbite92 Agreed .... I only managed about 5mins of this paticulour episode and turned it off..don't get me wrong I used to enjoy the show but it's just lost it a bit for me especially the episode where Haskell went on a rant about folau which is fair enough as everyone has an opinion on that matter but i turned it off the moment Haskell took off his shirt virtue signalling to reveal a skin tight pink vest that he was wearing in solidarity with gay people .. I mean the irony was obviously lost on the fking idiot because on one hand he's chastising folau then stereotyping gay people as skin tight pink vest wearers.. what a bell end
Pink vest bought from a gay shop in Old Compton st. probably !!!! He told the blokes in the shop why he was buying it , they were onboard his reasoning. Bit of gay humour you've lost in TRANSlation Smokey !
@@daikayll1897 On any other occasion I wouldn't give a flying fuk.. but when some bell end wants to rant and rave virtue signalling berating folau for his online posts regarding many people including gay people while wearing a skin tight pink vest I'll consider Haskell a cock womble for doing so..
Hearing Producer Si laughing out loud in the back ground make me cry laughing. Love it!
THE BEST PODCAST IN THE HISTORY OF PODCASTS.
WHAT AN EXCLUSIVE CLUB WE CAN ONLY DREAM OF BEING A PART OF !!
This show is the best podcast out there, it gets funnier every week.Keep it up lads
Haskell and Farrell please....get it done. :p
Me and my mates were in Newcastle watching the final and Goode was in normal clothes in a kebab shop about 3am, what a guy to stick the kit on and carry on going!
Alex Payne’s new shorter lid is something to behold. Beard game strong too. Another great one from the boys.
Big shout out to Joe Shaw at Saracens, he’ll have been a big reason for the culture there. Played in Hong Kong with him at Kowloon , created a family first, team came after. Brilliant way to do it
Shame that last part about Rob Andrew was edited out... it wouldn't of been interesting to hear Mike's unfiltered opinion on him
Agreed. His name appears to be mud amongst anyone who's been associated with him. Especially during his time at the rfu...
This is amazing. My favorite podcast at the moment. Keep it up!

"it's all about comfort, right?" Tindall absolutely stinks of the jeans and sheaux scene hahaha
It’s the show that, just keeps on giving. It’s started well, but now. Wow
Best Rugby show because it’s not about the Rugby, it’s about the Culture of Rugby!! Great intro, great end, great throughout!!! 😂
Jimbo announces retirement - 28 seconds into the next episode and already halfway into the pint. Well deserved mate.
Producers need to get their act sorted...Boys are always sitting there with empty glasses, surely it's an offence!?
Its very far from the office to studio Dominic, I try my best
Now you can get Haskell drunk and really get going
My favourite rugby podcast ! Something for everyone in this episode ... what’s the plan for the summer guys ? Guests ... World Cup warm ups ? The occasional odd other sportsperson maybe ..... ? 👍🏻🙃
look forward to this every week, another entertaining episode
Great episode. I prefer the previous 'perfect pour game' and hope they revert back to it. Please get Rob Andrew on next.
Can't believe Tinds had 9 years at Gloucester. Thought it was the last 3/4 years of his career.
Great podcast love the banter between these 3! Get Farrell on next 👍

Quote of the Week: "Heavy Salads" - Alex Payne
Please release an uncut version with a full analysis of Rob Andrew by Tinds
J&S Holdings will be very pleased with the Hask's shout out.
We need to get Si the producer on this for a bit cracks me up when you can hear him laughing in the back
That is why the army guys are so bonded together, they train hard to work hard and then get on the piss together
woop been waiting for this :)
Haskell should become a rugby management consultant
Saracens pack is incredible
Brilliant show. Top bants
Best I have ever seen Skelton play. Man mountain.
Finally...decent looking pints! Good show too BTW 😉 well done Joe & Guinness
Oh to the end with a tear in my eye 🤣
Please bring back the old perfect pour, great show again

What happened to the latest video? Did it get pulled down? I can't find it.
Tank fly boss walk jam nitty gritty you're listening to the boys from the house of rugby.
Haven't listened yet, but im sure its fun!
Get a episode where we can hear producer Simon
I enjoyed a fine evening with Dean Richards in Bangkok at the Banger's in around 2004.
Jason Manning yawn

I think Hask should try and start up supermarket sweep. Maybe have Keith lemon as a co-host....
Surely Charlie Sheen for stag mate...
Hask you should do your own podcast
Peter O'Toole, Rimbaud and Jack Nicholson
wooo LETS GO!
Ladies, if you ever want to know what men talk about when we're not around...
is he wearing a Tobi jizzle hat?
Haskell n Farrell please...the bffs
Bin juice ... learn something new every day
On a good day, Danny Cipriani is a better player than Owen Ferrell.
The only reason he isn't in the English squad and maybe starting is his behaviour of the pitch
I should stress that Alex Payne is the only host that can keel this together cuz I get that this is FUCKED
😂😂😂👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

You've confused Dame Kelly Holmes with Dame Jessica Ennis-Hill, you weirdo
@@gavinanderson6623 Youre right. I have amended above.
Is that a dyslexic FBI hat?
I messaged FYI jesus wept
As much as I enjoy the guests, the best episodes are just Alex, Kames and Tinds chatting shit
James's hand's are actually deformed
Man, I can't get past these cringe as fuck intros. Horrendous!
If Alex could go more than 5 seconds without saying ‘oh really?! I didn’t know that’ in future episodes, that would be great. Highly irritating.
