wow. Women's Rugby World Cup....let's talk about coffee, games, who's arguing with whom rather than....Women's rugby. How did they get to play (pathways), leagues, clubs, opportunities etc. and upcoming games. Poor journalism in my view.

More drivel. Show just doesn't compete with the other rugby shows. I want to listen to it because it's predominantly Welsh but more often than not I turn the episodes off after 20mins
