Shocker of a pod 🤷♂️ usually you guys get it right but the comment that “this is an English pod” was way below your normal standards. This is a rugby pod and you were clearly playing to JM’s ludicrous evaluation of that game . England were a shambles and Scotkand should have won by more . If he can see progress in that mess he is delusional and you boys sadly played along . Embarrassing stuff guys 🤦♂️
