“My ‘go to’ rugby podcast. Always informative and interesting. An excellent listen, a great window on the Irish teams. Bernard’s unique experience and perspective, as international player and coach, gives him unparalleled insight into the rugby world. An articulate, eclectic mix of experience,...”Read full review »

“Insightful analysis of Irish rugby; always a pleasure and worth the time
The commercial supporter, DoneDeal Motors, has a fantastic semi-punk song at the end; the only podcast where I listen all the way especially to hear the advertiser's jingle.”Read full review »

“I understand they are going behind a paywall. I used to listen to Newstalk golf podcast with spawells Damian McGrane (?) etc but then they went to acast? And behind a €3.99 paywall. Forget it. These subscriptions at €50 per year are poor value compared to Spotify and Netflix. Goodbye Newstalk...”Read full review »

“Jackman has grown on me and comes across really knowledgeable. Murray kinsella is excellent. The host’s style while it lends to a good open discussion doesn’t really do it for me, very enthusiastic and has good knowledge of the game but tends to turn his questions into monologues in which he asks...”Read full review »

“The three regulars (Jackman, Kinsella, Gavin make this so good. It could be better by adding they Ulster guy, Gary I think? He’s great. If you have an absence in further, get him on instead of Mike Sherry. Nice guy but listening to him is no better than a player interview. He’s far too close to...”Read full review »

“Top class podcast! The contributors use clear language that means us non-rugby players can understand what’s being said. I look forward to my Friday morning walks to bring them along.
Love it, love it, love it.”

“Just Jackman ranting 50% of the time at this stage, usually about Munster. As if he has all the answers. This week: A young lad leaves Connacht, somehow talks back around to moaning about James Cronin. Ireland come third in a few six nations, Joey Carbery moved provinces seems to be his bugbear...”Read full review »

“This pod is top quality.
I make sure I never miss the weekly pod, it always touches on the most important topics trending in Irish rugby as well as the rugby world. Extremely insightful.
Keep up the good work lads.

“Great for highlighting the important details and having a willingness to go into some of the more offbeat stories, unlike a lot of other shows that stick with clichés and the most obvious angles. Come for well-founded rugby insights; stay for Gavan’s wild predictions.”

“I greatly enjoy the podcast. Murray’s analytical insights are excellent. There’s no better podcast focused on Irish rugby.
Please take this criticism as constructive: the opening and closing voice montages include the phrase “If you’re an accountant and lose your job nobody really notices”. ...”Read full review »

“Best rugby podcast going. Highly informative, very entertaining, but also calming.
If you’re liable (as I am) to getting too RYLEd up and over the top up by your rugby, Gav, Murray and Jackman will bring reason back into the equation more often than not.
It is also a rugby podcast that is more...”Read full review »

I am not keen on some of the “experts” they bring on, particularly Bernard Jackman.
If they could raise the quality of guest pundits this...”Read full review »

“Love Murray’s insights but I find Andy Dunne just rehashes the same points that he makes on Newstalk or other podcasts. The pod is probably not helped by it coming out on Thursdays as it all just feels a bit repetitive if you listen to other rugby podcasts. Worth a listen for Murray Kinsealy though”

But seriously, I also listen to another podcast to which I think Gavin is being compared to and I disagree wholeheartedly.
I like his style, most of the time I don’t even know he is there, and i mean that in the best...”Read full review »
