Episode 162 is here and it’s a BIG one!
Mr. Gray and Nichols are joined by the triumphant return of Philly V and Iowa State Men’s Rugby Head Coach Ant Frein for a packed show.

The boys break down the latest livestreaming updates, recap college playoff action, and look ahead at the huge matches still to come. They also dive into the Autumn International Series with all the chaos, drama, and standout moments you’d expect.

Finally, we jump into part one of a massive conversation on reimagining Major League Rugby—inspired by feedback from our posts across social media. The debate got rolling so hard that we couldn’t even finish it… so stay tuned for more!

As always, the MLR talk is just a fun thought experiment between a few guys saying random things from the comfort of the Wombat Den—but we’d love to bring in more voices from outside our “territory” to keep the conversation going about how MLR can grow, improve, and build long-term sustainability.

Tune in, enjoy the chaos, and let us know your thoughts! 🎙️🍻
