It's been a long week for us all so here's something to make you laugh, smile or just feel better about yourselves. First off, apologies if it sounds like either of us are under water or something. Storms rolling through the New England area of the U.S. played havoc with our connections. IN ANY CASE, on this episode we cover a whole litany of things.

It is the latest from those dopes in North America. Naturally neither of us could keep our yap's shut, so this was a long one. We got a bit stuck in to a few things, but sometimes you just can't help yourself. If you are looking for a certain bit of material, feel free to fast forward to the time stamps given. In this episode we do a little informal go around with the Saracens loanees in the Premiership. We get stuck in to ways to keep clubs afloat while fans are not allowed back into the parks. Of course we cover the European action from the semifinals in both competitions (16:21), cover the start of round 21 in the Premiership (46:27) and of course it's our bad fantasy advice with start or sit (1:00:09) for all the remaining matches in the Prem, including that draft championship weekend.

It is those American Rugby knuckleheads that are supporters of the club everyone loves to hate. Sorry, had to squeeze that in there. In this episode we get into a couple deeper issues, having nothing or very little to do with on the pitch play, superstardom, and being a good player while also being a knob of a person. Of course we talk about the fantastic final we were treated to in Super Rugby AU, along with THAT look. We make the rounds in Europe including touching on the Bears in the Challenge Cup. And it's an abbreviated start/sit for the Premiership games coming your way before our next recording. Kick back with a beverage and have a laugh with us.
