Gloucester won their first game of the season with a convincing performance and victory over Sale in the Prem Cup. We discuss the game, who stood out and where we see room for improvement. Meanwhile as Russ took his son to his first Men's game, he took advantage of the Safe Space area (found in the old club shop space) and we want to sing the praises not only of the staff but the club as a whole.
Snowy introduces our new sister site - cherryjamstats.com which we hope will give some much needed data and context through out the season.
Andy Charsley provides this weeks two minute summary while Jim and Ed run through the Red Roses win over Australia in the WXV while asking whether Sydney Sweeney or the BBC have done more damage to women's sport in the preceding week.
