RugbyPass Offload - Episode 24: Robshaw and Roberts on Las Vegas, Lions, World Cup fallout, Eddie Jones and Six Nations

Joining us all the way from Las Vegas for RugbyPass Offload – Episode 24, former England captain Chris Robshaw gives Jamie Roberts and Christina Mahon an update ahead of his first game in Major League Rugby with San Diego Legion.

We cover his stellar career for Harlequins and England, including the challenging fallout from England’s unsuccessful home World Cup in 2015 and just how hard that affected him. 

Robshaw tells us about his experiences working with both Stuart Lancaster and Eddie Jones and gives us his thoughts on the current England squad and how Jones will be dealing with the pressure following their disastrous 2021 Six Nations. 

We also get Robshaw’s Lions XV as Roberts revels in another Welsh Six Nations title win.

Leinster issue promising Jordie Barrett injury update

I wonder how Leinster will use Jordie. I would rate the current centres there above him, and the rest of the backline is strong. Pity he did not go out to Connacht, or up to Ulster....both would really benefit from a player of his class.

Former Ireland centre Brendan Mullin jailed for 3 years

I am saddened that this is how Brendan Mullin has ended up. I met him in the 70's as a 16 year old , when attending a trial for an Irish Schools age group sevens team. I was coaching in Ulster at the time, and we had a player in contention.


On the way back up to Belfast, he was on the train for part of the way out of Dublin, and I got to know him a bit. He told me was born in Jerusalem, lived some years there. He was now being educated at the rugby powerhouse, Blackrock College. He made that team, as did my player. His immense talent was clear at that age.

TJ Perenara clarifies reference to the Treaty in All Blacks' Haka

in fact polls have shown conclusively 2 things: First - more people in NZ support the bill than do not (FACT!)/ Secondly - 96% of the 'hikoi' participants had not read Act's bill. In other words... they have no idea what it is about. You have carried this ignorance on with your statement that Act "seek to rewrite the Treaty'. That is 100% inaccurate and in fact is explicitly ruled out in the bill. You should educate yourself and read it before before commenting on matters that you clearly have no understanding of.

Balls - it was a misguided and unsanctioned dig into matters he (like 95% of the anti-Bill crowd) completely misunderstand and misrepresent. Good riddance to this bench warmer.

Men's 15s World Player of the Year was only a two horse race

It’s basically because we have put it up to SA and beat them in 3 of the last 4 contests. He doesn’t like competition, is exceptionally thinned skinned, lacks the nuance and rugby intellect to give a proper retort and has the comedic value of a steroid loaded bucket of gonorrhoea.

It's never the kiwis fault is it ? You're all so perfect. Except when it comes to self awareness.

He's getting paid a million dollars a year by Rugby Australia to be amazing. He's not. He's hopeless.

Sorry but kiwi Schmidt is not to blame for Aussies debacle. He is doing his best to make a purse out of a sows ear. His team does not have either the cattle or the depth to consistently perform against better sides. He has done well with other sides so is not a poor coach.

'England actually looked better with Fin Smith at 10'

Fl

Are you still flogging the dead horse .

You could at least admit Marcus got the twickers crowd on their feet and was lighting up the play .

Come the 6 nations you will see if Ford is any longer in the frame.

The game has moved on .

Ford old hat .

Fin came on when japan were done for .

Easy play then but he did look the part .

Unlike ford who couldn't hit a barn door and threw a hopeless pass v Aus who won 7 points from it .

Come on .

Admit you are wrong .

True, they need to tackle better, but also Scotland put them under a lot of pressure and 90% of that pressure came from basic errors. Like missing your kick offs, clearing kicks only going 5-10meters. Missing lineout jumpers on the throw etc.

Mick Cleary: 'Borthwick deserves the benefit of the doubt at this juncture. Just.'

Borthwick was the only person to have stayed with Eddie jones after most left .

So yes man comes to mind and not someone who is a strong character with a vision .


He picked the backroom staff and players and made the decisions to replace players at the crucial moments in the game that transpired to be fatally wrong . He resorted to safety first approach at the death .

Marcus has had to adapt to three no 9,s . Spencer should never have been dropped, as it proved to be .

Fin Smith should have been in the 23 and certainly not Ford .

A clear out is way past time and I do hope Borthwick can see this .

Ugo is rightfully annoyed at the utter wastefulness of the England set up .

We should not be talking like this but enjoying englands success .

Ben Youngs voices exactly what every England fan is thinking

To be harsh, England have no right to expect a cushy schedule. In Nov 2002 we faced NZ Aus and SA and found a way to win all three. I'm not saying for a minute that this England team is close to Johnno's side but you don't improve by taking the easy option. Fix the defence, the players need to work on their individual skill sets because they are lacking.

'They look like schoolboys' - NZ media go in hard on Warren Gatland and Wales

Very unfortunate situation. They're right about a total failure to develop young players but kicking the Welsh team when they're down is a bit cruel.
