  • Elliot Daly: Joker in the Wolf Pack

    Elliot Daly: Joker in the Wolf Pack
    Jun 2 2026
    Saracens, England and Lions legend Elliot Daly joins the boys for a wide-ranging conversation that's as entertaining off the field as he is on it. From his infamous first day at Wasps in full school uniform (briefcase very much denied), to three Lions tours, a siege-gun boot, and mentoring the next generation of English talent, Daly proves he's as sharp in the studio as he is at fullback. The lads also look ahead to a crunch Premiership clash with Exeter, dissect Mark McCall's coaching genius, and assess whether England's talented young squad can peak at the 2027 World Cup. 00:00 🛞 Season 6 Powered by Continental Tyres 00:46 🏏 Cricket Chat 05:07 💼 Briefcase Banter 07:17 🐝 First Day as a Wasp 15:20 🌍 Barbarians Tour Chaos 19:55 🩺 Surgery, Rehab & Recovery Timeline 22:36 🎙️ Mark McCall: Lessons from the Top 35:42 🧠 Eddie Jones’ Best Advice 41:47 ⭐ Noah Caluori 48:39 🏟️ Exeter Away 52:58 🔀 Position Preferences: 58:59 🦵 The Siege Gun Boot & Monster Kicks 01:03:05 🦁 Lions Tours & Surprise Selection Calls 01:11:00 💪 Grip Strength Challenge Showdown 🥃 Rémy Martin Cocktail Recipes https://www.remymartin.com/en-uk/cocktails/ 🚶‍♂️Lewis Moody Fundraiser Walk https://lewismndwalk.co.uk 📗 The Good, The Bad & The Rugby: Unloaded: ⁠https://lnk.to/GBRUnlocked/waterstones Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Lifting The Lid On Alfie Barbeary

    Lifting The Lid On Alfie Barbeary
    May 26 2026
    The lads are joined by a man sporting one of rugby’s most iconic hairdoos, Alfie Barbeary. From going “full Barbs” in nothing but budgies and a flag as Bath celebrated winning the treble, to navigating back row, hooker and number 8 at Wasps Academy, we untangle Alfie’s irreverent and impressive career. 00:00 🛞 Season 6 is sponsored by Continental Tyres 02:39 🩲 Full Barbs Budgies Story 05:39 🌟 Cult Hero and Team Jokes 16:40 😤 You’re Not My Dad! 19:50 🥃 Remy Martin Fathers Day Moment 21:23 🛁 Bath Exit and Sarries Move 34:11 🏉 Hooker Skills And Scraps 36:50 💪 Choosing Back Row Life 39:07 ⚠️ Wasps Collapse Lessons 40:40 🦟 Kid Prodigy & Wasps Academy 45:53 🌹 Pro Mindset And England Ambitions 48:57 🟥 What To Expect At Sarries 52:05 ☠️ The Bath Poisoner 56:47 🚗 Continental Tyres Grip Strength Learn more about your ad choices.

  • State of Origin: The Union Way

    State of Origin: The Union Way
    May 20 2026
    Before professionalism swept it away, the Divisional Championship packed out Twickenham and launched international careers. Today, we're bringing it back. Armed with current pros, regional pride, and very little agreement on eligibility rules, our panel drafts four teams - North, Midlands, London & South, and the South West - and puts it to you to decide who'd win. Joining the show are World Cup winner and Leicester Tigers legend Ben Kay, and cross-code flying machine Martin "Chariots" Offiah - a man who actually pulled on the London jersey in 1987. Together with Payno and Tins, they argue, haggle, and horse-trade their way through the ultimate fantasy rugby draft. 00:00 🛞 Season 6 is sponsored by Continental Tyres 02:06 🌏 State of Origin Idea 03:16 🏉 Selectors and Memories 08:55 📋 Eligibility Rules 10:14 🔁 Back Three Picks 17:47 ⚔️ Centers 23:40 🎯 Halfbacks 32:07 🔒 NordVPN Break 34:45 💪 Front Row Picks 38:43 🏗️ Second Row Pairings 42:09 🔥 Back Row Debates 52:54 🏆 Who Wins? 54:15 🏟️ Choosing Home Stadiums 57:34 🧠 Picking The Coaches 01:00:04 💭 Can This Concept Actually Happen? 01:01:25 🤜 Grip Strength Challenge 🔐 EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/goodbadrugby Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee 📗 The Good, The Bad & The Rugby: Unloaded: ⁠https://lnk.to/GBRUnlocked/waterstones Learn more about your ad choices.

Was great to hear what Eddie had to say about what happened and the future looking bright for him. Alex & Hask do a great job as always probing and putting their view across 👏 thanks for making my deployment easier 😀

Great to hear Eddie's side

The Bin Juice (Shame and Ben) answered the call and fronted up....no doubt they will be dropped again next week in favour of bigger names! Long live the Bin Juice!
