Phil will bring his stat attack to the party in the next installment. This episode focuses on USA's amazing win over Scotland; England's crushing defeat in Blomfontein and the controversies in the New Zealand v France game. We're keeping our powder dry on Wales and Ireland's fantastic victories for a day or two, so apologies and bear with us for the podcast being in two parts this week. LTBP!

Tim has a special addition to the rugby dungeon
JB has some transfer news...allegedly
Phil has some topless pictures...and stats, natch
And all 3 of the boys have various things to say on a weekend of domestic rugby.
Prepare for peak levels of JB smugness. Are his predictions coming true, or is this merely a blip in Uncle Eddie's Masterplan? We dig into Scotland's epic win to regain the Calcutta Cup.
Ireland's endless conveyor belt of talent has unearthed some fresh bodies seamlessly transitioning to the Test arena. How good was that win against Wales, and can Wales take anything positive from a defeat in Dublin.
Then there's the utter omnishambles that's France v Italy. Best watched with Benny Hill music rather than commentary.

Then Eddie Jones announced Ben Te'o in his wider England training squad. JB doubled-down and announced this as a flash in the pan and declared the now immortal line...."this is PEAK TE'O!". Every time Big Ben reached a new height we'd fire up the horns.The England wider squad became the England squad proper...became the England matchday squad...became a first cap...a first try...a Lions squad member...a Lions player...and NOW...a Lions Test Starter.Peak Te'o turned out to be up there with the highest height any British and Irish rugby union player can reach reach. The only place left for BBT to go is winning a Test series and the 2019 World Cup. That remains to be seen, but...

This weekend Tim has been jetsetting to watch Glasgow and Leinster, while JB and Phil have been gorging on the feast of rugby from afar. After some big wins for the Pro12 teams we dissect the action and JB eats some humble pie (or perhaps not...?). We ask whether anyone can beat Saracens, whether Matt Toomua's yellow was the correct call and if Sale will ever win on the road. JB also rounds off his tribute to the Pro12 with a Celtic Quiz.

Tim had a train to catch and JB had a hard time setting everything up and so we had a very rushed start. However the lads quickly got into the usual rhythm asking the tricky questions like, "are centres a dying bread" and "are New Zealand using their coaches to take over the world"? We also run through most of the Aviva, Pro 12 and Rugby Championship action, Tim has a Rugby Social, we get a very special delivery from the USA and we preview next weekend's fixtures. Wonderful.
