Who would have thought we'd head down to South Africa and come away with 4 bloody points! What a week, playoff hopes are still alive and kicking. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
For the second year in a row Benetton take a defeat in the Challenge Cup Semi-final. We came, we saw, we did not conquer. But we discuss what hopes we have for the rest of the URC season! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
We discuss how Benetton took 2 points/lost two points in Belfast, what's happened to Zebre & Coach gives a rallying war cry for the big semi final game at the weekend! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Benetton get a much needed bonus point victory over the Dragons and Zebre have put in a solid first half performance against Connacht but still end in a horrid scoreline. We also discuss where we would like the autumn games to played in Italy - Portofino gets vetoed. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
This week we talk about Benetton's win against Connacht to earn a place in the EPCR Challenge Cup Semi Final. We also talk about your mum! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
We are (finally!) back to talk about the Italian rugby we've missed! With a close look at Challenge Cup games against the Lions and the Sharks and also how they went to Africa without Coach. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
NO WOODEN SPOON! We chat about how impressive Italy's Six Nation's campaign really was and talk about how the future is looking bright. We also learn that Coach can't tell Welsh people apart. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Italy break an 11 year home game curse by beating Scotland! We talk all about (almost all of us) being at the game, Lord of the Rings and our thoughts on how Italy v Wales on Super Saturday will go down! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
2 Italian defeats (one much more impressive than the other) Munster vs Zebre & Benetton vs Glasgow. We look ahead to the 6 Nations where Italy take on Scotland. We also discuss someone's fear of flying, punctuality and logistics! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
We drown our sorrows in neat gin before remembering that 5 months ago Italy had 60 points put on them by France, and today, through nothing short of a HERCULEAN TEAM EFFORT, they drew 13-13. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Let us tell you why Benetton losing away to Leinster and Zebre getting a losing bonus point against an Edinburgh team riddled with Scotland Internationals is overall a pretty positive thing. So positive that Coach isn't even mad this week. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
After a disappointing game against Ireland, Coach delivers a wise proverb. We dissect the positives (of which there are some!), chuck out the negatives, and look ahead to a repeat of Ireland v Italy in this weekend's URC clash of Leinster v Benetton! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
The Six Nations 2024 has kicked off, and Italy are here to play! We discuss the game, our trip to Rome, kilts, and Coach fighting crime. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
We talk about the Italy 6 nations squad announcement, player by player just in time for the Italy vs England game this weekend! Eddie also does yo momma jokes. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
George talks us through his journey from Italy international lock, to head of Rugby Operations at Zebre Parma. He tells us the secrets behind Zebre's new found winning ways, and we look ahead together to this Italy squad's 6 Nations campaign. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
In a very different episode, we catch up on Zebre and Benetton games through the medium of Coach. We talk Italian rugby news, the new Netflix doc and our Library of Rugby Facts. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Benetton rack up 57 points away from home in a smashing performance up in Newcastle, Zebre Parma beat the Dragons in a both stubborn and gutsy display of rugby, and with so many Italian players looking as hot as they are right now we ask "is there anybody cocky enough to think they're guaranteed to start against England in the opening game of the Six Nations?" Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Back from from an excellent URC derby in Italy, Ellie, Eddie and Coach talk about their experience and look forward to a massive weekend of European rugby for Benetton and Zebre Parma. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
"Rightly to be great Is not to stir without great argument,But greatly to find quarrel in a strawWhen honour's at the stake!"- Hamlet Act 4, Scene 4After an amazing Italian URC derby we get a little carried away with the Shakespearean drama of rugby. Eddie gets Hamlet completely wrong as we discuss how Benetton just about held off a Zebra Parma who were out for blood! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Paolo Odogwu takes us through the incredible last year of his life: from the end of Wasps; to loving life in Paris; to playing for Italy in the World Cup; to then finally being back alongside his best friend and Composure Club business partner Jacob Umaga at Benetton Rugby in Treviso.Music: Jeff Kaale on Uppbeat Hosted on Acast.
