Talking Rugby Podcast, featuring boards.ie members

thomond2006

Hi everyone, this is a rugby fans podcast involving many members of the boards.ie rugby forum. What I am posting now is the 36th episode, for the last 10 or shows we have gotten at least 500 plays/downloads within 7 days of an episode's release. It is a weekly show where fans discuss the latest issues, results and stories in rugby.

Here is the link to the latest show: http://talkingrugby.podomatic.com/entry/2012-04-19T11_21_12-07_00

It's all about the domestic leagues as Talking Rugby looks at the RaboDirect Pro12, the Aviva Premiership and the Top14 in France as the battle for playoff places heats up.

We have a big panel this week, coming from Ireland we have Pedro, Doc and William while for our French discussion we are joined by our regular man Daithi and also newcomer Michel.

It's an all Ireland final in 3 weeks! Ulster and Leinster both won their Heineken Cup semi-finals to progress to Twickenham in what should be a fantastic occasion for Irish rugby.

This week we are joined by Alan, Doc, Michael (who all attended the Ulster match) and Daithi from France.

COMING UP ON THE SHOW:
0:00 - The team says hi!

34:50 - We talk about the wins for Toulon and Biarritz in the Amlin Challenge Cup semi-finals.
40:00 - It's the final weekend in the RaboDirect Pro12 with a fight between Munster and Glasgow to secure 3rd place while Ulster require many results to go their way to qualify.
45:35 - It's also the final round in the Aviva Premiership, with the playoff and relegation battles still alive.
49:25 - This weekend is the penultimate round of the Top14 regular season with some big fixtures including Racing vs Stade Francais and Toulon vs Toulouse.
54:30 - Some small tibdits, including contract extensions at Leinster, Luke Fitzgerald's future still in the air and Finnish rugby!
