Episode Notes
Domestic rugby is back with a bang, and the lads are across an absolutely chaotic opening weekend. Jim reflects on pulling the boots back on for the 745 Game and picking up a broken thumb, before we dive into Saracens’ 12-try thriller against Leicester, big opening wins for Glasgow and Edinburgh, Gloucester ending their 12-year wait at Sandy Park and Louis Rees-Zammit lighting it up for Bristol. Plus, we unpack one of the wildest Test finishes you’ll ever see as Australia somehow survive four yellow cards and finish with 11 men to beat the Springboks 42-38 in Perth, complete with broken comms, referees on mobile phones and late drama. There’s also Dupont magic, Santi Carreras producing an early try-of-the-season contender and all the usual Good, Bad & Ugly.
