*sorry about the noisy audio, it's expalined towards the end but essentially i'm recording this in a less than ideal environment on a make shift set up - hopefully sorting that out soon.
Return of the pod after a bit of a break.
Talking: The Rugby Championship, Women's Barbarians, coaching the Jordanian Sevens team.
Couple of small mistakes in there, such as got Korobiete and Roan mixed up - Korobiete never played with Speight but the point remains about Aussie back three needing more balance.
Thoughts and Analysis on the 1st Test, a look forward to the 2nd test and the composition of the teams and what it means for how the game will be approached.
Quick thoughts on the Lions & AB sides, and a look forward to the 1st test and some of tactics that will be used by each side.
Will hopefully get a 2nd podcast this week up around the England and Scotland tours.
NB: I recorded this in a hotel room on a little portable set up, so slightly hissy, but hopefully good enough. :)
