Rugby Wrap Up, the mother ship, has returned. Unplugged. Raw. No Bells. No Whistles.

Welcome to Rugby Wrap Up Raw.

Rugby Wrap Up, which is now the platform for shows like The Rugby Odds, MLR Weekly and College Rugby Wrap Up, is now back as a show/pod, our original flagship podcast, adding to our already robust roster of great rugby content.

In this episode producer Zach Lanning and Matt McCarthy talk The Rugby Championship, the Pacific Nations Cup, WXV, and College Rugby, before taking an in-depth look at the Premiership ahead of Week 1.

This global rugby show, Lanning & McCarthy (often confused with Lennon & McCartney) will have a bit more time than our usual half-hour show formats allow, to cover the latest and greatest, often joined by guests from whom we’d all like to hear.

Feel free to comment below and be sure to check out our other shows, The Rugby Odds, MLR Weekly and College Rugby Wrap Up.

HOUSTON, TX - Continuing our conversations with MLR owners, this week's episode of MLR Weekly welcomes in Houston SaberCats co-owner Marty Power, who is refreshingly transparent and willing to offer an opinion or two... From starting out as a Massachusetts accountant, it was ballet (yes, ballet) and the Houston oil business that put Power on his rugby path. He talks about that unscripted path and all things Major League Rugby with host Matt McCarthy.

Also Included, Rugby Morning's John Fitzpatrick re:

-#MLR News

-Clickbait-Worthy Rumors

-Recap of USA Rugby's win over Canada

-Preview of USA vs Japan

Bryan Ray is off this week, dealing with family issues. Our thoughts are with him.
