The Pod is back with Goodey and Jim fresh (and a bit bruised) from the 745 charity game - where Jim “put the fear of God” into a few league legends. The lads break down a huge weekend of international rugby: England’s bench-powered surge past Fiji, Scotland’s heartbreak against the All Blacks, and the Springboks’ masterclass in Paris despite going down to 14 men. There’s plenty of chat about Fin Smith v George Ford, and Rassie proving why he's the smartest coach in rugby. The boys also reveal some big travel plans, plus Ireland bounce back against Japan, Italy going back to back against Australia, and Argentina out muscling Wales. Settle back, hit subscribe, and get ready for another big week of rugby
