EP 6: JIFFs and Quiffs
Listen now
Description
Inspired by efforts of those partaking in the London Marathon the previous day, Rob embarks on a similarly torturous journey through the winding backstreets of the French JIFF rules, and the knock-on effect on the sharp end of the Top14 season. We recap all the weekend's action including an agonising defeat for Bayonne in France's premier division, and the end is in sight for ProD2 with just about every outcome still a possibility. Nationale approaches it's last round of the regular season, and a barber pays an unexpected visit to Normandy... 00:00 - 05:24 Entrées 05:24 - 16:45 JIFF Rules & Why Do We Care? 16:45 - 39:39 Top 14  39:39 - 52:47 Pro D2 52:47 - 57:20 Nationale 57:20 - 1:07:56 Petit-Fours & Digestifs
