Rhiana Lewis from the Back the Girls podcast returns to chat to Jacob about the latest news in women's rugby, from whether teams like Lichfield or Bath should change to 'Women' rather than 'Ladies' and exciting developments in South African women's rugby. Then a tough dissection of the Bristol game follows, are we firm but fair? Let us know! To round everything up, we then preview the Sale Sharks game as familiar faces will be returning to Mattioli Woods Welford Road for the first time since leaving the club over the summer. Enjoy!

After a brief interlude of Jacob experimenting with Instagram reels instead of doing what he does best (jabbering on), the pod is back. Hannah dials in once more to talk about signing predictions, reviewing a positive performance against Trailfinders and deliberating as to whether if Bristol away is an opportunity for a scalp. Plus, Jacob has a catch-up with UONWRFC and Lichfield Ladies head coach Tim Westwood on BUCS promotion, the Tigers U23 Programme and a successful squad rebuild at Lichfield.  Enjoy!

In this episode, Jacob is joined by Nick, the guy behind the OurLeicesterTigers Instagram account to review Tigers determined defence (as well as an interesting kick strategy) against Exeter Chiefs and preview our first home game of 2026. With insights on trying to build a following for the women's team, Nick offers a newcomer's perspective on the side as we ponder whether the 36-0 scoreline was a fair reflection of the game and will that give the team confidence against high-flying Saracens. Enjoy!

It's been five weeks since the last game in the PWR, and it's been just as long since the last episode of the LTW Fancast. Jacob has recruited a stellar team to deliver a mega pod to you lovely listeners. Hannah returns to chat through a lot of news and her experience of the Gloucester-Hartpury game from December. Cara Ryder makes her fancast debut chatting about her outsider perspective on Tigers marketing as a Business of the Creative Industries student. Finally, Chiefs fan Colin Searle dials in to debate the merit of PWR teams organising no friendlies in this January break and to compare the similarities between Tigers and when Chiefs started their own women's team. Plus, hear from Fraser Goatcher and Jemima McCalman from the Tigers Women Press Conference. Enjoy!

Hannah returns to the fold to discuss with Jacob about what went wrong for Tigers Women in Ealing but also the positives, including kicking, scrums and two gorgeous tries! 

Then, Jacob, in an LTW Fancast exclusive, interviews University of Nottingham's WRFC's club captain Jasmine Murray about Nottingham's unbeaten season in BUCS Premier North, her experiences of the Tigers U23 development squad and Nottingham's potential route to BUCS Super Rugby. 

Finally hear from Fraser Goatcher and Clodagh Dunne from Tigers' Tuesday press conference ahead of the squad's final fixture before February! Enjoy another superb bumper episode for you madducks! 

Hero of the semi-viral scrap from the weekend against Harlequins, Hermione Farmer, joins Jacob for an exclusive chat about her route to Tigers through playing for Newcastle University in BUCS Premier North and Champ 1 North for Novacastrians, to her ambitions moving forward, positional flexibility in the back five and her recollection of the scrappppp. Enjoy! 

Well, well, well what a huge episode we have in store for you lovely listeners today! Jess Bunyard returns for a terrific segment on what she's been getting up to for the club and gives an insight into the exciting work she's been doing in the community game and improving attendances at Mattioli Woods Welford Road! Jacob is also joined by Hattie the Rugby Historian to preview the Quins game and talk about the East Mids Derby. If that is not enough value for money, Jacob also chats with Tess Feury and Fraser Goatcher from the Tigers Press Conference. Enjoy!! 

Slow news week, eh? Hannah returns to kick the dead horse that is Sky Sports Halo, whilst Jacob also makes a Wicked related promise to the listeners ahead of the East Mids Derby. In a bumper news section, we talk Abby Dow's retirement, PWR referee initiatives and sifting through a bunch of great work that Jess Bunyard has been getting up to for the club lately. In a short review of the Sarries game, we ask if reinforcements are needed in the pack given scrum issues and a growing injury list. We then preview the Loughborough game, as Jacob nabs two exclusive chats with ex-Lightning back Amelie Anstead and Fraser Goatcher! It's a big'un and not one to miss, enjoy!

After another heavy defeat against Saracens Women, Jacob thought it would be cool to do something a bit different to lighten the mood, therefore Zoe McGrady of BBC Radio Leicester dials in to chat about her journey to hosting the Women's Sport Show, her background being a Leicester City groundskeeper and her love for the Tigers Women team. Stay tuned for Zoe's tales of how difficult it was to tell people at her uni in Liverpool where Hinckley was, and Jacob's shameless plug for Hinckley's Concordia Theatre. 

For fans wanting a review of the Sarries game, that will happen next week, alongside a preview of the first iteration of the East Mids derby for Tigers Women!

Enjoy!
