The Rugby Pod - Episode 21 'Chile'

By Rugby Pod

21 Feb 2017

The Rugby Pod with Andy Goode & Big Jim Hamilton, hosted by Andy Rowe. Think pub chat, but with two ex-internationals who like to spin a yarn.

The guys give an insight into what really goes on behind the scenes in Rugby and throw a few people under the bus with some great stories. They also cover all the latest news & rumours from international rugby and the premiership, but with plenty of laughs and without taking themselves too seriously.

You can catch up on all episodes via iTunes.

Why the rest of the rugby world is worried about Australia

Well done, somebody else has figured out Donaldson is completely hopeless. But he's from Randwick so gets a free ride in the Wallabies. If Schmidt is such an amazing coach, how come he is selecting Donaldson ? He is either an incompetent fool or he is just stroking his Tah master's ego. Same for Gordon.

Why the rest of the rugby world is worried about Australia

The Tahs Peter Horne and Phil Waugh have Schmidt in their pocket. That's the only explanation for why Gordon and Donaldson are playing for the Wallabies. Neither of them are in the top three or even 5 best players in their position that Australia has. They will stick with Schmidt because they will take Rugby Australia down with them to protect the Tahs self entitled egos.

But because Schmidt has very cleverly refused to select them so far they will take time to integrate in to the team. He's a very cunning kiwi like Deans and Rennie. Don't select the best players for the Wallabies. Let them fail. Then select a new bunch of players who don't have time to gel before the next challenge. It's either completely incompetent selecting and coaching or it is deliberate sabotage. Personally I think it is deliberate sabotage which funnily enough, is hurting NZ too.

'With near-religious conviction, how good does it feel to be a Bok fan?'

Nope. The Boks vs AB's rivalry is over 100 years old. Ireland's rivalry is a baby compared to it. This rivalry barely started. Give it another 90 years, with the Irish continuesly a big threat. Until then, the Irish is just coat tail riders trying to make money from a non existent rivalry.

'With near-religious conviction, how good does it feel to be a Bok fan?'

Spectacular fail at whatever point you were trying to make. The Boks currently is unbeatable, using 2 different teams, 3 different times during this RC. How many teams can claim that? Now because nothing the haters say matters as everyone sees their willful hate speech for what it is, you try to pop in the political scene of SA as some reason that makes no sense at all. The political situation in SA is highly volatile, the country's crime rate is through the roof and it's not a safe country, no matter how beautiful it is. Which just makes what the SPRINGBOKS did, and is still doing that much more AMAZING. For such a broken country to bring forth such talent and for such racist people (just not true) to work together to go back to back WC champs, nevermind all the other current achievements, they seem to be united in passion and love for the sport that no other country possess. Who are you to try and minimise what other people go through? To make lite of our hardships? Our struggles? What a small excuse of a cockroach you are. You should be ashamed

It’s second chance Saturday for Ireland in men's world rankings

Bullshit. You made a factually incorrect statement and then contradicted yourself. Instead of manning up you twist yourself into indefensible and illogical statements because your inferiority complex is so gargantuan that you cannot bear the thought that some anonymous person on the internet got the better of you.

You're a very sad little man.

"The RWC is a joke"

"The arrogant boasting of the two teams in question just emphasizes the clown show."

But you'd trade the #1 ranking for a RWC title...

That's my explanation. It's sad that you cannot understand it. But, then again, you are a low IQ moron.

To reiterate: Not just an idiot, but a clown too.

I made a statement which holds through for this argument. Th exception proves the rule. You are too much of a moron to be able to differentiate between general and trivial. Are you from SA? I know they are not all as dumb as you there.

Why coach was ‘worried’ about Black Ferns’ heartfelt hug with King Charles

They should have thrown him a rugby ball, tackled him, declared him 'wrong side of the ruck' and studded the f**k out of him, 90s style, until his bodyguards broke it up.

NZ needs to stop this love affair with a monarchy. Having a European 'King of New Zealand' on the other side of the planet tying NZ to an undignified colonial history is something that the modern country should be able to move beyond.

The retort that the monarchy is now a benign institution does not bear any real scrutiny.

Oh right, now I'm agreeing with someone who posted something completely different? Only in your deranged mind, you addlepated f-wit.

YOU made a statement and the YOU contradicted yourself. Now you're trying to weasel out of mit by making all kinds of illogical mental leaps. You're not just a moron, you're the king of morons.

What part of that statement do you disagree with?

You do need some substantiation to call people names, so if youre not the clown/idiot, give us some substantiation...what part of that statement do you disagree with? If you can't explain it, you're a low IQ moron. (Think we both know the answer here)

Whether World rugby gives teams .05 of a point for hammering a minnow or rounds it down to zero are both trivial in terms of the rankings. You don't get points for hammering minnows but in general you get points for beating opponents who are not relavent minnows. Your point is for anoraks, its irrelevant to this conversation.

I was replying to an idiot who maintained that Ireland benefitted from a biased ranking system. You seemed to be agreeing with this? Otherwise toss off you numbskull.

What Tom Curry said when asked would he shake Bongi Mbonambi's hand

Don't like these questions trying to reignite a row.

Curry and Bongi know what happenned there.

Regardless of what was said the English media's reaction was f***ing outrageous.

Clearly most of the self righteousness was sour grapes for losing the semi. Dominating the pre final interviews with self important scores of questions re CurryGate and nothing on the rugby is unforgivable.

Solisi said that the English media is F**ked up.

It is all about England winning, no matter what the sport: and they will turn on everyone and anyone when that doesn't happen as it sells papers for him. In 2023 it was Bongi. The papers in question could honestly not give a flying f**k about racism. On the country they spend their time attacking minorities and non -whites.

So when the great SA captain says they are f***ed up. He is right on many levels.

Diego Maradona was the greatest soccer player to play the game. But his entire legacy in England the supposed 'home of rugby' was his handball against them. 40 years later at his death they were still going on about it. Gladly he was still taking the piss of them over it til the end!

"Ireland were number one for most of 2022/2023. So what?

We'd trade it for a RWC win obviously."
