jarrod_dyke
I got to, I only got to three and a half of the prem games, so.
00:02:31
jarrod_dyke
Although I think I saw enough of what I want to know what I need to know.
00:02:34
Grumpy Old Prop
there There wasn't, there wasn't, yeah, I don't think I finished. Did I finish? I can't recall. I think there may have been one that I didn't, fit Oh, I didn't finish Quinn's saints or Quinn's sale.

Grumpy Old Prop
I got, I got spoiled on it and I was like, yeah, I'm glad I'm fine. I'm, I'm fine having. I think I went to like a ah trip to BJ's with the family. It was like, yeah, I'm good.

00:03:11
Grumpy Old Prop
thatll thatll That might come up later.
Social Issues and Cultural Impressions
00:03:13
jarrod_dyke
but Yeah. um Anyway, um also no discrimination here on this podcast. No should it be in sports or in life. um There's a lot to hit on and Ben and I are already mentally exhausted from thinking about it.
00:03:25
jarrod_dyke
But suffice to say, um the Middle East is going to hell and we need gun laws and here in the United States.
00:03:28
Grumpy Old Prop
Mm-hmm. Yeah We were like before the the pod we were talking about it and like There's just too much to talk like, you know, I was like on all the active shooters and He's like, oh well like the Alabama one and I was like I was thinking well the Kentucky one like and like and then this then Right, you're like wait, are we talking about the same person?
00:03:30
jarrod_dyke
That pretty much sums it up.
00:03:41
jarrod_dyke
but Right. yeah We didn't even know which one was talking the other was talking about, which is bad.
00:03:48
Grumpy Old Prop
Like there was legitimate like
00:03:50
jarrod_dyke
I should tell you how bad it is playing simple.
00:03:52
Grumpy Old Prop
And like that's that's like two of them not like there's just like I was sat you know, so Southern mass shooters and as opposed to like the northern mesh it like they're just fucking worked or you know, Texas in general um Like just Texas being Texas Yeah I'm glad look I'm glad we went there and now I don't have to go back again.
00:03:56
jarrod_dyke
Not, not, not the whole thing either. Right.
00:04:05
jarrod_dyke
Texas is a zone. creature, but to say the least, but different story for a different day.
00:04:15
Grumpy Old Prop
I've seen them I've been to an Astros game.
00:04:15
jarrod_dyke
No, you do not. No, you do not.
00:04:18
Grumpy Old Prop
We've had a lot of fun in Galveston and Cool, that's enough Texas for me.

00:04:30
Grumpy Old Prop
Right.
00:04:31
jarrod_dyke
Although I wouldn't mind going to Houston or back to Houston, I guess it would be the but app term.
00:04:34
Grumpy Old Prop
Back, yeah, Houston wasn't, Houston actually was pretty nice. I don't wanna leave, no.
00:04:37
jarrod_dyke
Yeah.
00:04:38
Grumpy Old Prop
that that was That was actually pretty fun.
00:04:40
jarrod_dyke

Content Creation and Analysis of Rugby Matches
00:04:47
jarrod_dyke
um should i Should I have a cooperating child tomorrow, I will do a quick boom bust for...
00:04:47
Grumpy Old Prop
No, will be soon.
00:04:55
jarrod_dyke
um And I'm really just gonna probably just pick out like three guys on either end and just call it that. Honestly, not by position because while that was something I really loved doing at the same time.
00:05:08
jarrod_dyke
Holy shit, did it take you a lot of time.
00:05:10
jarrod_dyke
um Yeah, so anyway, I will do that.
00:05:10
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah, and I I will work towards having a sheet, but um my own rugby season is is last about six, six more weeks.
00:05:19
jarrod_dyke
Upon you. but
00:05:22
Grumpy Old Prop
um Maybe five, actually, so um Yeah, it's not going to happen until after that. I apologize. But that's, you know, that's what six or seven matches like that. That's when they really get into lather and may have like serious questions between two guys that would require those analytics.
00:05:36
jarrod_dyke
Probably.
00:05:38
Grumpy Old Prop
So I'll get them.
00:05:39
jarrod_dyke
Yep.
00:05:40
Grumpy Old Prop
I promise. Just patients, please.
00:05:45
jarrod_dyke
Patience. All right, let's get into it. ah We got opening weekend. The first one listed is Newcastle and Bears, and I don't think we need to go too in depth on this, other than the fact that Newcastle, we're wistering the hell out of this thing.
00:06:04
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah, I mean Yeah,
00:06:04
jarrod_dyke
Like they, they got close at least a couple of times and put some serious pressure on. I think it was in the first half, um, especially, and they just, they couldn't get it over the damn line.
00:06:10
Grumpy Old Prop
it's gonna be a long No, it's gonna be a long year for them um Callum chick is no Kyle Hather ill Like yeah um Because we'll get to him but I feel like I mean that with seriousness Hather ill actually played like an eight game
00:06:17
jarrod_dyke
Yep.
00:06:22
jarrod_dyke
And that's saying a lot.
00:06:33
Grumpy Old Prop
Um, chick is just, he's a six. He's like a five and a half.
00:06:38
jarrod_dyke
and
00:06:39
Grumpy Old Prop
Like, let's be honest. He there's, there's two guys who should not have been playing eight who were playing eight this weekend. And chick was one.
00:06:46
jarrod_dyke
Right.
00:06:46
jarrod_dyke
yeah Yeah, there's a few of them.
00:06:47
Grumpy Old Prop
And the other thing for, for Newcastle, this is one of the way I see it.
Bristol vs Bath Game Analysis
00:06:51
Grumpy Old Prop
They're they're going to lead you get four or so chances to win. And that is when they play the bears, when they play Exeter, when they play Gloucester, when they play Leicester at home.
00:07:00
jarrod_dyke
At home. Yeah.
00:07:01
Grumpy Old Prop
at home this was one of those games and they they um kind of as you said they booted it yeah um which may happen but I don't know that's not a good lineup right
00:07:09
jarrod_dyke
Yep. Bar, bar them catching one of the big boys napping, which may happen, but I, I don't know. I don't, I don't believe it's going to happen as of right now. Let's put it that way.
00:07:21
Grumpy Old Prop
um And then the Bears like they took, they got five points. Okay. You know, that's, that's, they didn't play particularly well, but, but they got five points, which is, you know, you'd get that every game.
00:07:30
jarrod_dyke
No.
00:07:36
Grumpy Old Prop
I think you might make the playoffs.
00:07:40
jarrod_dyke
Generally speaking, that's what the and until the aim for is.
00:07:41
Grumpy Old Prop
Just right. And like, this is one of those, like on the other, on the other side, from what I was saying about Newcastle for Bristol, it was, Um, you know, that, that was, they needed five points out of this game.
00:07:55
Grumpy Old Prop
Like you at the end of the season, they're going to be happy. They got all five points, even if it looked a little shit, but it's also first week. This is, if if there's any week where it, for it to look clunky, it would be this week. And we saw that around the league.
00:08:07
jarrod_dyke
Right?
00:08:08
Grumpy Old Prop
So, um, yeah, there's a lot of teams didn't score four tries.
00:08:09
jarrod_dyke
Yeah, there was stuff with some clunkiness at the least.
00:08:14
Grumpy Old Prop
That's for sure.
00:08:15
jarrod_dyke
Yeah, there were plenty of those, plenty of those.
00:08:17
Grumpy Old Prop
So we have Bristol did very well for themselves at the top of the table.
00:08:26
Grumpy Old Prop
and I mean, you know, not alone, but they're top of the table.
00:08:26
jarrod_dyke
Right there, man.
00:08:29
jarrod_dyke
Yeah, tied for first at this point.
00:08:32
jarrod_dyke
Yeah, we'll see.
00:08:33
Grumpy Old Prop
And points differential, I guess.
00:08:34
Grumpy Old Prop
Are they first?
00:08:35
jarrod_dyke
No.
00:08:36
Grumpy Old Prop
OK.
00:08:37
jarrod_dyke
No, no, I believe, I believe Bath is.
00:08:43
Grumpy Old Prop
but Maybe. Oh, yeah, 24. Yeah, that's true.
00:08:48
jarrod_dyke
Yep, anywho, anywho, speaking of, let's jump over to the rec.
00:08:49
Grumpy Old Prop
Fine. Whatever.
00:08:55
jarrod_dyke
I mean, a lot better. This is, this is what you need of a team that wants to get to a final. I'll say that.
00:09:02
Grumpy Old Prop
Mm-hmm. Yep.
00:09:03
jarrod_dyke
And obviously people are tipping back to get back there and maybe, maybe finish the job this time.
00:09:10
Grumpy Old Prop
Mm-hmm.
00:09:10
jarrod_dyke
Um, yeah, I thought, I thought they look, I mean, their attack was scintillating compared to Northampton bar.
00:09:14
Grumpy Old Prop
and
00:09:19
jarrod_dyke
The, I think it was the fur bank try.
00:09:19
Grumpy Old Prop
Mm-hmm.
00:09:21
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah, I think um Yeah, well, I guess it was their only daily squirtish one try so that was it um and No, Kamini it was Kamini scored that was a good try that was a good try Yeah, right Um
00:09:29
jarrod_dyke
That was the try. So that's true.
00:09:36
jarrod_dyke
Oh, Kameny that you're right. You're right. Yes, it it was. I yeah, for makes it up though. That's what it was. That's what it was. That's why I had that in my head.
00:09:49
Grumpy Old Prop
But yeah, like bath, this is, I think they, if this was a football game and like an NFL game, they would sit, I would say that, that um, the saints defense got exposed. Cause bath really probed that defense.
00:10:04
Grumpy Old Prop
I remember they, they took one run at at James Ram and Ram was like, no, you will not, you shall not pass.
00:10:08
jarrod_dyke
oh
00:10:12
Grumpy Old Prop
Um, And then they just ran coconuts, like anybody over on that right side.
00:10:17
jarrod_dyke
Yep.
00:10:19
Grumpy Old Prop
And um yeah, there were there was shakiness there.
00:10:24
jarrod_dyke
Very willing to label.
00:10:26
Grumpy Old Prop
Like, um yeah, slight home is it was not um not feeling it Hutchinson, you know, or or for a bank, we're not really doing the job on on coca.
00:10:37
jarrod_dyke
Nope. No.
00:10:39
jarrod_dyke
um
00:10:39
Grumpy Old Prop
I mean, it doesn't help that like, you know, they're, they're isolated.
00:10:42
Grumpy Old Prop
Cause I mean, Lawrence and butt played really well.
00:10:46
jarrod_dyke
Yes.
00:10:47
Grumpy Old Prop
This is, this was a, they have too much talent.
00:10:47
jarrod_dyke
The two of them together.
00:10:51
Grumpy Old Prop
This bath team, if they're going to be a problem.
00:10:52
jarrod_dyke
who Oh, unquestionably.
00:10:56
Grumpy Old Prop
And they already are. And the saints, like, I don't think you can use as much.
00:10:58
jarrod_dyke
Yep.
00:10:59
Grumpy Old Prop
You can like, you know, it was ah again, ah like I said with, uh, like Bristol, it was like a week one hit out, but bath were like, you know, this is week five for us. Like they're, they were lathered up.
00:11:09
jarrod_dyke
Hmm.
00:11:11
jarrod_dyke
Yeah. So one of the few teams, no, I mean, no Mitchell, they didn't start truck. They have huge issues in the second row with their go throw ASY in there.
00:11:11
Grumpy Old Prop
Northampton need to get there and No, no, right Yeah, but like no no laws No, Ludlum Right and then Alex Mitchell not playing like their lack of They just lost such a I mean, you know
00:11:24
jarrod_dyke
That's not good. Um,
00:11:30
jarrod_dyke
yeah. Although departed guys. Yep.
00:11:41
Grumpy Old Prop
Mitch will be back, but like that leadership alone from laws and Ludlum can't be overlooked.
00:11:47
jarrod_dyke
Yep.
00:11:50
jarrod_dyke
Not at all.
00:11:50
Grumpy Old Prop
And to a lesser extent, Sam out of AC and not to disrespect that, but like certainly a veteran who knows how to play at a high level, even though, you know, maybe he wouldn't, maybe, you know, no, maybe about it.
00:11:53
jarrod_dyke
Yeah.
00:12:01
Grumpy Old Prop
He's not the best. He wouldn't be the best hooker on, new on Northampton, but he'd still be like a force in the locker room and in the 23. So.
00:12:09
jarrod_dyke
Yep.
00:12:12
jarrod_dyke
Yep. It was a question about that. No question. No.
00:12:12
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah, they'll they'll, they'll sort themselves out, but not right now.
00:12:18
jarrod_dyke
No, they got a few things.
00:12:18
Grumpy Old Prop
And again, that defense needs to, they need to tighten that shit up.
00:12:21
Grumpy Old Prop
And it wasn't like in the areas where laws and.
00:12:23
jarrod_dyke
Which was the thing that would kill them in the season's past, so...
00:12:25
Grumpy Old Prop
Oh, that's yeah. Yep.
00:12:27
jarrod_dyke
and need the yeah Don't let that be the thing that gets you.
00:12:29
Grumpy Old Prop
Don't be a one hit wonder with that. Like, like, yeah.
00:12:31
jarrod_dyke
Yeah, please. I'm gonna talk about it, too. Yeah. A lot of people are talking about, like, don't don't let this be, like... Don't let your, like, CB1 title and call it good.
00:12:40
Grumpy Old Prop
Right. Although they'll be back. They have, they have so much talent.
00:12:44
jarrod_dyke
So... I'm sure they will.
Exeter vs Leicester Game and Saracens' Depth
00:12:45
Grumpy Old Prop
It's just right now that, you know, look at Beth's, um, back row and it's hard not to pitch a tent.
00:12:45
jarrod_dyke
and
00:12:55
jarrod_dyke
yeah Right?
00:12:58
jarrod_dyke
with With the talent that didn't end up in there.
00:12:58
Grumpy Old Prop
I mean, they lost a lot in the, yeah.
00:13:01
Grumpy Old Prop
And they lost ah like quite a lot in the second row, but it's like, um, also slim Alfie Barbary is amazing Alfie Barbary.
00:13:09
jarrod_dyke
Use a good Alfie Barbary, that's for sure.
00:13:12
Grumpy Old Prop
He, he definitely, um, yeah.
00:13:13
jarrod_dyke
like I think most BAF fans will agree with it.
00:13:15
Grumpy Old Prop
he Um, he, he got littler like I grew in the last year. So that's good for him.
00:13:23
jarrod_dyke
He, he, he, he, you, you got his, you got his, that's what happened.
00:13:26
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah, I got his certainly.
00:13:28
jarrod_dyke
You got his.
00:13:30
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah.
00:13:31
jarrod_dyke
So that's where it all went.
00:13:33
Grumpy Old Prop
yeah yeah You're welcome.
00:13:34
jarrod_dyke
You and, uh, you and Disco Bill or Alfie and Disco Bill, I guess, but yeah.
00:13:36
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah.
00:13:40
Grumpy Old Prop
Uh-huh. I got from both of them, I guess, so.
00:13:44
jarrod_dyke
that is like explain a few things and Excuse me. All right. ah so I I was in the car for this one and I'm kind of happy about it. Honestly, the Exeter and Lester And that's the most we can say
00:14:01
Grumpy Old Prop
This was a game. They played it 80 minutes. 80 minutes. And and look, it was it was really interesting for like three of them.
00:14:14
jarrod_dyke
You mean the last three?
00:14:15
Grumpy Old Prop
Um, the last three, that was it. There was like, yeah.
00:14:17
jarrod_dyke
Because that's the that's all I saw. i got hold I got to my mom's place and I popped it on. I'm like, yeah, let's see how what's going on here. Holy shit, Lester's gonna win.
00:14:25
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah. Um, that was it.
00:14:26
jarrod_dyke
That was it.
00:14:28
Grumpy Old Prop
There you go. Tommy Raphael doing, doing good work, but damn, it, it was rough.
00:14:36
jarrod_dyke
Yeah.
00:14:39
jarrod_dyke
Looks it, I mean.
00:14:41
Grumpy Old Prop
It was hard sledding, which I mean, you know, any game at that fucking Sandy eight butt crack is going to be, um, but I will say this, like Lester, you know, just like we were talking about with, um, like Northampton, like they lost some serious talent and they're not, have they don't have it anyway. This is an, aim like, I call this almost like an A minus team for them, but they played really well.
00:15:10
jarrod_dyke
Yep.
00:15:11
Grumpy Old Prop
Like, Hunter Leibenberg at six, yes, please, and thank you. That's fine with as long as you have, as long as you have like an Ali Kraknall.
00:15:18
jarrod_dyke
Yeah, it seems to be one of his better roles.
00:15:23
Grumpy Old Prop
And honestly, ah Kyle Hatherill, who I thought wasn't like, maybe not the fastest. Um, but then VISA wasn't the fastest. Not that it's really fair to compare the two, but like.
00:15:35
Grumpy Old Prop
He's got the power. He's just, it's not as much of it as, and like, I don't know how much, how how else to really say it, but, um, Visa was just a a constant problem. Hatherill, when he was involved, was a problem.
00:15:49
Grumpy Old Prop
So it's just a little bit less, but, you know, so, okay, you don't have a world-class eight now. We still had, that was a solid eight, eatery bite by Hatherill. I was impressed. I was surprised by that. And then Raphael coming in for him, and then Raphael coming in for him, I thought was, was really smart.
00:15:59
jarrod_dyke
Our friends at UR only have them for seven meters.
00:16:05
Grumpy Old Prop
Cause then that'll open it up and yeah, throw a refill at eight. Why not? We're in less credit to crack.
00:16:10
jarrod_dyke
Did they put them in eight?
00:16:10
Grumpy Old Prop
No move.
00:16:11
jarrod_dyke
or they probably They probably moved one of the other two there.
00:16:12
Grumpy Old Prop
Probably move. I think they move crack. No, sorry. Either way. But that's like, that's actually still fine.
00:16:14
jarrod_dyke
yeah
00:16:16
Grumpy Old Prop
He's now you had a little bit of a runner there. Um, Rafael's a good fetcher. He's a good seven. Like you have a, you have a proper back row. It's not, you know, you know, world beating, but that's, that's solid right there.
00:16:30
jarrod_dyke
yep um Yeah The kata red card Yep, it was and it happened
00:16:32
Grumpy Old Prop
So good on what we'll talk about that later.
00:16:38
Grumpy Old Prop
Yup. Yup.
00:16:44
Grumpy Old Prop
I have no other comments, but yes, that was a red card all all day.
00:16:50
jarrod_dyke
Yeah. And he's, unfortunately he's gaining himself a reputation and that doesn't do him any favors.
00:16:53
Grumpy Old Prop
He is. It's not helpful.
00:16:57
jarrod_dyke
Needs to work on that shit. You know? So no, I don't agree with the, he is the case in point of, I do not agree with 20 minute red tarts.
00:17:06
Grumpy Old Prop
Right. Yeah.
00:17:07
jarrod_dyke
Like clearly he's not learned.
00:17:10
Grumpy Old Prop
no
00:17:10
jarrod_dyke
So the only thing left to do is continue to be like, you're off.
00:17:15
Grumpy Old Prop
yep
00:17:16
jarrod_dyke
So he would not learn from that and that's what we need. We need people to learn from that shit.
00:17:20
Grumpy Old Prop
yep No Yeah I'm just fine ah because we both picked Exeter so it's like no harm no foul
00:17:23
jarrod_dyke
So it happened. um Am I happy that I was wrong about my pickup on that? Maybe.
00:17:33
jarrod_dyke
Maybe.
00:17:37
jarrod_dyke
Yeah, no shit, right? Honestly, I'd i'd eat the hell.
00:17:41
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah, I'll take the, uh, it's whatever.
00:17:42
jarrod_dyke
You would not hear me complain.
00:17:43
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah.
00:17:43
jarrod_dyke
You would not hear me complain. All right. Uh, let's go to King's Home.
00:17:51
jarrod_dyke
Um, the artist formerly known as Andy k Christie, now properly known as Andy Onyama Christie.
00:18:00
jarrod_dyke
Um, yeah, he's good. I don't know if anybody, if anybody's heard of it, but he's pretty good.
00:18:03
Grumpy Old Prop
He's okay. They're this. Okay. Here's, here's here's what I'm predicting.
00:18:10
jarrod_dyke
Mm-hmm.
00:18:13
Grumpy Old Prop
The Saracens' depth in playmaking forward is so fucking thick and deep that Rob Baxter is going to be talking about salary cap before Christmas.
00:18:26
jarrod_dyke
Yeah, I wouldn't be shocked.
00:18:28
Grumpy Old Prop
um Because, and yeah, Oniyama Christie was awesome. Willis was fantastic. As always, Ben Earl was great. Toby Knight did his job.
00:18:40
jarrod_dyke
Solid, did his job and that's all. I think that's what he's gonna be for at least a while if not ever.
00:18:45
jarrod_dyke
um No, for now, I mean, yep.
00:18:46
Grumpy Old Prop
nope No problem there.
00:18:49
Grumpy Old Prop
Tizard, I thought, played well. And you know so you still have the him. You got Theo. You got Maro.
00:18:56
jarrod_dyke
I mean, how pissed are you when you yeah you've been playing for what, 60, 70 odd minutes and here comes Ben Earl.
00:18:57
Grumpy Old Prop
ah
00:19:04
jarrod_dyke
You're like, fuck me sideways.
00:19:05
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah. Right.
00:19:07
jarrod_dyke
Like, oh no, why? Why did you do that to me?
00:19:12
Grumpy Old Prop
or the, you know, Theo Dan comes off and you're like, okay, thank God, he's gone, and Jake's comes off like, hey, fellas.
00:19:15
jarrod_dyke
And jinx comes on. That's also not awesome. Oh man. um So let's, so there's two,
00:19:24
Grumpy Old Prop
Mm-hmm.
00:19:24
jarrod_dyke
there's three things i I want to get into. Um, Fergus Burke debut in a sherry shirt for, for real this time.
00:19:31
Grumpy Old Prop
Yay.
00:19:32
jarrod_dyke
Um, they're not going to get Owen Farrell back when and they're not going to get him back in one player.
00:19:36
Grumpy Old Prop
No.
00:19:37
jarrod_dyke
They're going to get him back in the aggregate. Is Burke making up a good chunk of that part so far? Yeah. I think he is. I think he's got, he's going to have a stinker somewhere in there.
00:19:45
jarrod_dyke
It may be this week. Who knows? so Um, yep.
00:19:46
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah, but he made the he put the ball where it needed to be.
00:19:50
Grumpy Old Prop
And that's like he's got the playmakers on the inside. He's got the playmakers on the outside. Just it's like literally being handed the keys to a Ferrari. Just drive it.
00:20:00
jarrod_dyke
Yeah, pretty sure.
00:20:00
Grumpy Old Prop
Just like let it let it drive itself. Just hit the hit the pedal and let it do its thing.
00:20:05
jarrod_dyke
Pretty sure he hit he hit Elliot for his try to buy sell it for his try.
00:20:09
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah, I think so that the kick pass.
00:20:10
jarrod_dyke
It was a good ball too. I mean, I had to do was get it to space, but sometimes people have a hard time doing that.
00:20:15
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah.
00:20:17
jarrod_dyke
So good for him. And if we're if we're honest, let's think about a few people that have had issues with that.
00:20:17
Grumpy Old Prop
Exactly and you know, it's Exactly so yeah, no, I very happy with that especially as a week one week one bonus point in the you know in the shed like this this could easily have been You know if they if they played their tight game this could have been a loss given how lost or fought back um But yeah
00:20:38
jarrod_dyke
Uh-huh.
00:20:43
jarrod_dyke
Yeah, uh, on Gloucester, George Barton looked at home at fullback and not that they're not, not that they're going to all of a sudden like get rid of him and, or, um, keep him there over some of the people that will eventually, um,
00:20:49
Grumpy Old Prop
I like I was impressed. No.
00:20:55
Grumpy Old Prop
No, Heather is going to be back in that like that. I was kind of I was I was actually relieved when Heather wasn't halfway.
00:21:00
jarrod_dyke
Hathaway, you mean?
00:21:02
Grumpy Old Prop
Sorry.
00:21:02
jarrod_dyke
Yep.
00:21:03
Grumpy Old Prop
um Wasn't in the lineup. I was like, OK, like Barton, but then Barton yeah Barton played really well. I was like, oh, like that's that's problematic.
00:21:09
jarrod_dyke
I was, yeah, there was, he was, he was extremely problematic for the most part.
00:21:13
Grumpy Old Prop
And I just I just watched the Tobias Elliott try and um ah Fergus put it out for I think it was daily who put him through Yeah, I set up the setup but a good pass maybe gave gave ah ah a really good platform for a second pass to a try square winger Yep Mm
00:21:23
jarrod_dyke
Okay. Okay. Set up the setup. Fair enough. Good enough. Good enough. Um.
00:21:38
jarrod_dyke
If so, and this, I was watching this and um as I'm watching, I'm like, the wheels are coming off here. And eventually that, that changed. But
Gloucester vs Saracens Game Review
00:21:46
Grumpy Old Prop
-hmm
00:21:47
jarrod_dyke
my thoughts were if this had really gotten out of hand, the score line had really gotten out of hand and Saracen's put up in the neighborhood of 50 plus and Gloucester had not shown the fight that they did.
00:22:00
jarrod_dyke
I would bet my mortgage that George giving to him would have been fired two today or tomorrow or yesterday. One of the, one of those two.
00:22:08
Grumpy Old Prop
I think they're going to give him a few more weeks than that. And and seriously, a bonus point loss versus Saracens when they're playing an open style. Then they're just they're bringing it I I what else?
00:22:23
Grumpy Old Prop
This is what I would like. I would be happy with a bonus point here. So I hear what you're saying. I don't think this would have been this would have been not have been the end of the road for him. It wouldn't have been a positive in his ledger, but also the fact that, hey, get again, bonus point loss, taking a point away
00:22:39
jarrod_dyke
Yep.
Critique of Sale and Quinn's Performance
00:22:40
Grumpy Old Prop
from a match against Saris when they're looking potential championship is certainly better than I expected them to look week one this year.
00:22:45
jarrod_dyke
yep
00:22:48
Grumpy Old Prop
um
00:22:49
jarrod_dyke
Right.
00:22:50
Grumpy Old Prop
I got to say that's okay, fine. Like you know, no, no plus no minus just okay, you're not unhelpful.
00:22:53
jarrod_dyke
Yep.
00:23:00
jarrod_dyke
No. Alright, so let's go to, so let's go to Sam Quinn's and let's just jump right into the the meat of the whole thing that we were trying to get at before we get too carried away with ourselves over here.
00:23:12
Grumpy Old Prop
This involve my dick of of the weekend.
00:23:16
jarrod_dyke
I I don't care. if this is an outlier for them in terms of how many points they score. Here's the thing. A 45 pointer is also an outlier for them.
00:23:27
jarrod_dyke
They're aiming for like these low twenties wins. Now, if people are going to tout them as a premiership finalist, this cannot like the 20 odd point, like low 20 odd points can't be the the the floor.
00:23:41
jarrod_dyke
That's gotta, that's gotta to be coming up just at least I'd say another try or two really.
00:23:46
Grumpy Old Prop
Well, because, yeah, and eventually you're not playing it at home and Like, I don't know. And I now get the rain and week one fine, but you still started John Luke Dupree at eight.
00:23:56
jarrod_dyke
Right. But it's it's not like right. And even I mean, right now they don't have anybody else. So um I you're not you're you're not wrong.
00:24:05
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah, but okay. Find someone else. Seriously. Like put, put a, like, but then you know find ah another, like put one of the curries at eight.
00:24:15
jarrod_dyke
do
00:24:16
jarrod_dyke
That's almost worse.
00:24:16
Grumpy Old Prop
And it's not great either, but like there.
00:24:20
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah. And also we got to talk about Tom um knocking himself out and then being allowed back in the game. No.
00:24:26
jarrod_dyke
Yeah, that that's not a good look.
00:24:29
jarrod_dyke
That's not a good look at all.
00:24:29
Grumpy Old Prop
So I don't give me again, just don't give me like you're going to put out this line up.
00:24:34
Grumpy Old Prop
And it's not that the fact that this is what the best that they've got, it's that Sanderson has been there how many years now?
00:24:41
jarrod_dyke
Three or four now.
00:24:42
Grumpy Old Prop
And it's the same shit.
00:24:44
jarrod_dyke
Right.
00:24:45
jarrod_dyke
That's the problem.
00:24:46
Grumpy Old Prop
So it's like, if you you could have, if you don't want to play this way, why do you have no roster turnover ah among the guys who are basically your, your star players?
00:24:55
Grumpy Old Prop
Cause okay. Yeah. They changed 12, but like they signed a bad one to begin with. Um, and yeah, now he's gone, but I got to see if the, uh, the replacement is, you know, yeah, he, I didn't see him at all.
00:25:02
jarrod_dyke
o
00:25:10
jarrod_dyke
He was a ghost He was a ghost I had that in my notes. I was like he is a ghost. I've not seen this guy all day You know, this is supposed to be a game he could be and I know he's not the but bowling ball battering around that too he was but like Still he's got the ball carrying ability that he should be able to impact this game and he didn't
00:25:18
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah.
00:25:23
Grumpy Old Prop
Right.
00:25:27
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah. He should, this should be easy to get, especially with Dupree at 12 now, like at least you've got once and give it to him, like feed him.
00:25:32
jarrod_dyke
Uh-huh. Get out there to him.
00:25:35
Grumpy Old Prop
And yeah.
00:25:36
jarrod_dyke
Get him in space.
00:25:39
jarrod_dyke
It shouldn't be too hard.
00:25:40
Grumpy Old Prop
And like, when the again, the part that I was watching, like I didn't see much that really interested me of, of a Flaherty Roebuck or Carpenter, like Carpenter had a couple almosts, but a couple almosts is almost as good as, you know, not much.
00:25:50
jarrod_dyke
Uh-huh.
00:25:59
jarrod_dyke
yeah when you When you can get my mom to make a comment on the game in the negative way, youre you're you've lost a plot.
00:25:59
Grumpy Old Prop
like
00:26:07
jarrod_dyke
My mom's just like, all right, i can we go back to the other game? Because I was watching Argentina and South Africa from the day before. that's like yeah i We can, but like I kind of need to at least get to a certain point in this game before I can bail on it.
00:26:21
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah.
00:26:23
jarrod_dyke
Yeah. They've, they've, it's one thing to have to adapt your, your play style to what you've been given. And even then like there's certain ways you want to play.
00:26:36
jarrod_dyke
This is how sale wants to do it. And it's not, you know, and I totally agree with the whole idea. Like people in rugby love to winge about rugby. They're not wrong. ah I agree.
00:26:46
Grumpy Old Prop
They're not wrong, but
00:26:47
jarrod_dyke
I agree. But at the same time, there, there is a point where it's like, You have to admit there's a problem when there's a problem.
00:26:53
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah, right.
00:26:53
jarrod_dyke
If you can't admit there's a problem, yeah I'm sorry, we'rere at this point we're we're an addict. We need to admit there's a problem first, okay?
00:27:00
Grumpy Old Prop
Right. And it's okay.
00:27:00
jarrod_dyke
We gotta miss you first.
00:27:01
Grumpy Old Prop
It's not like this is a great sport. And like I guess all that they're like, why like saw someone comment, like, why are we trying to get people who don't like rugby to watch rugby anyway?
00:27:13
jarrod_dyke
because i mean because the but because we need we need people in the stands to make this thing survive.
00:27:13
Grumpy Old Prop
And it's like, dude, oh my fucking god, do you know?
00:27:18
Grumpy Old Prop
Right.
00:27:18
jarrod_dyke
This thing doesn't run on you know hopes and dreams, unfortunately. I wish it did, but it doesn't.
00:27:23
Grumpy Old Prop
Right. And it's not about that they don't like it. And so that they're wrong. What it is, is it needs to be something like look at the free jacks. How many times did we bring people who like, it's not that they don't like rugby. It's that they don't know rugby. But if you bring in people like the, like I said, the free jacks, how many times have we seen people there like, Oh, it's my first ever rugby match. I'm coming back. and
00:27:45
jarrod_dyke
And they usually do.
00:27:48
Grumpy Old Prop
Right. And then you see them and they're like, I told you i like they would literally come up to us because i mean we have those have we those ridiculous sweatshirts or sweaters that are awesome.
00:27:55
jarrod_dyke
Yeah, the hoodies.
00:27:57
Grumpy Old Prop
like we we we in you know In this type of weather that it is now, I love hoodie weather again, um like we we are unmistakable. So people will find us and be like, I told you I'd be back. and Yeah, that's, that's, that's how you grow.
00:28:09
jarrod_dyke
Mm hmm.
00:28:11
Grumpy Old Prop
That's, that's how you get bet, you know, and it's better product. That's the point. It's the product, not just the sport. You have to think past the sport to the product.
00:28:21
jarrod_dyke
Right.
00:28:23
jarrod_dyke
Yeah.
00:28:23
Grumpy Old Prop
This is bad product.
00:28:24
Grumpy Old Prop
And yeah, that's been, of course, that's why Sanderson's my dick of the week.
00:28:25
jarrod_dyke
No, it's not good.
00:28:30
Grumpy Old Prop
Spoiler alert.
00:28:31
jarrod_dyke
Uh, anyway, so before we get into all the, all those other fun things.
00:28:37
Grumpy Old Prop
And Quinn's, it was week one.
00:28:37
jarrod_dyke
So yeah, no green markers came on it.
00:28:38
Grumpy Old Prop
It was in the rain. No Marcus, no green, like an a a minus team.
00:28:43
jarrod_dyke
What 45 or something like that.
00:28:45
Grumpy Old Prop
I don't remember.
00:28:45
jarrod_dyke
so Right.
00:28:46
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah. it So not no Marcus, but didn't start. Um, and then they took off the wrong player. Like they should have moved Jared Evans back to fullback or, or put Marcus at fullback.
00:28:55
jarrod_dyke
Yeah.
00:28:56
Grumpy Old Prop
Cause he can do that.
00:28:57
jarrod_dyke
Very surprisingly happening last the whole match.
00:28:57
Grumpy Old Prop
Um, cause I thought, yeah, I, I think the only time as I really saw him was when he was kicking for posts.
00:29:05
jarrod_dyke
yeah A couple of eyeballs.
00:29:07
Grumpy Old Prop
I was just about, Oh, I think he caught that one ball and like, you were like, Oh, he's still in the match.
00:29:07
jarrod_dyke
That's about it.
00:29:10
Grumpy Old Prop
And then like that, that he hadn't even touched the ball yet.
00:29:12
jarrod_dyke
ah Yeah.
00:29:12
Grumpy Old Prop
And it was like 10 minutes in. Um, cause you're like, cause you, I think what you said the over-under at five and like, then he caught a ball.
00:29:18
jarrod_dyke
Yeah. yeah but yeah
00:29:21
Grumpy Old Prop
He caught a Mark. I remember he, um, he called Mark and then he kicked it away. And I was like, Oh, that that was like 15 minutes in. I was like, there he is. he Oh, he's okay too.
00:29:32
Grumpy Old Prop
Like, you know, he actually went up and and came down.
00:29:35
jarrod_dyke
Didn't die.
00:29:36
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah.
00:29:38
jarrod_dyke
Alright, so now we're going to get into some of the more interesting things that we're going to try and continue on and we'll see what works and what
Podcast Innovations and Power Rankings
00:29:45
jarrod_dyke
doesn't. um We better the throw pasta at the wall and see what sticks.
00:29:50
Grumpy Old Prop
Yep.
00:29:50
jarrod_dyke
So we're going to go with.
00:29:52
Grumpy Old Prop
Pasta, if you're lucky.
00:29:54
jarrod_dyke
If you're lucky, that's what sticks.
00:29:55
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah. Cause we got something else that'll stick.
00:29:57
jarrod_dyke
Power ranking.
00:29:59
jarrod_dyke
Power rankings if we can help it.
00:29:59
Grumpy Old Prop
All right.
00:30:00
Grumpy Old Prop
All right. Enough of that. Let's go.
00:30:01
jarrod_dyke
Um, so number 10, Newcastle, without a doubt.
00:30:06
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah.
00:30:07
jarrod_dyke
No, no, wait, no way for nowhere for them to go.
00:30:08
Grumpy Old Prop
No question.
00:30:10
jarrod_dyke
Uh, nine still Gloucester.
00:30:12
Grumpy Old Prop
Exeter.
00:30:13
jarrod_dyke
Exeter. Okay.
00:30:14
Grumpy Old Prop
Although, yeah, because right now if I think, like I said, Exeter, Gloucester, Leicester are um my my teams that I'm looking at the bottom um beyond, you know, above.
00:30:23
jarrod_dyke
Well, that's the, those are the four I have in the bottom right now. So not in that order necessarily, but.
00:30:26
Grumpy Old Prop
Right. So it's like what what order and of those of those three or four Exeter looked worse.
00:30:33
jarrod_dyke
and Okay. Well, there you go. So glosser than lesser, obviously it was Lester one.
00:30:37
Grumpy Old Prop
Um, Lester one. So, and then a win in Sandy park is is tough to do, no matter how shitty, um, exit or are.
00:30:40
jarrod_dyke
Yeah.
00:30:45
Grumpy Old Prop
So that was an impressive win. And then, then yeah, and Gloucester, but that above Gloucester is, um, not an impressive loss.
00:30:53
jarrod_dyke
Yeah. Yeah. So lesser seven exists as their nine gloss for eight Newcastle 10. Okay.
00:31:01
Grumpy Old Prop
Yep.
00:31:01
jarrod_dyke
I said that way out of order, but whatever.
00:31:03
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah.
00:31:03
jarrod_dyke
Um, coming in at six. Is it, is it Bristol or is it Northampton?
00:31:10
Grumpy Old Prop
Coming in six is for me it was was sale.
00:31:10
jarrod_dyke
Where's the Quinn sale? Okay. No, I was figured, figured them getting the one would put them a little bit above.
00:31:15
Grumpy Old Prop
They won, but like, I, I, I still think long-term, if this is, again, this, this, if this is the way they play, it's not about whether, you know, at that point it's, it's more than the winter little lost.
00:31:26
Grumpy Old Prop
They want it home. Week one and ah and in a rain. Okay. That's not, you know, that's where Shania territory. Um, so like, I'm not that impressed, but I'm more, you know, let, I'm more overall impressed with Northampton as a club.
00:31:42
jarrod_dyke
Okay.
00:31:44
Grumpy Old Prop
um And as a program so I still rate them higher um Quins Again because they law they you know, they do need to show me something more than that and Bristol ahead of them because they got the five-point win that they just they needed it.
00:31:47
jarrod_dyke
okay So five, Quinn's Bristol. Okay.
00:32:01
jarrod_dyke
Yep but You gotta come away with that up there and doesn't have I mean it should be pretty but we're not gonna be the prettiest So Saints three or series three Okay
00:32:05
Grumpy Old Prop
It'll be like Yeah, I mean North
00:32:11
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah. Like Northampton is going to feel their, that this bonus pointless loss.
00:32:23
Grumpy Old Prop
Oh no. Saints are, um, no saints are what five Bristol or four. Oh no. Bristol or three. Where the fuck were we? Newcastle.
00:32:33
jarrod_dyke
Right now we have 10 New Castle, nine Exeter, eight Veloster, seven Lester, six sail, five Quinn's, four Bristol.
00:32:42
Grumpy Old Prop
life of five Queens, four.
00:32:44
jarrod_dyke
So,
00:32:45
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah. Five Queens, I guess, four saints, three Bristol, two saris, one bath.
00:32:50
jarrod_dyke
okay. That makes sense. Yeah. And a bath. Try and tell me I smell.
00:33:03
jarrod_dyke
Don't answer that. Yeah, and saris, and yeah, Baffler, without a doubt the most impressive team of the weekend.
00:33:09
Grumpy Old Prop
Yes. Easily.
00:33:10
jarrod_dyke
I don't think there's anything, eight questions that need to be asked about that whatsoever. Okay, so then we're gonna go to folks that outdid themselves.
00:33:21
jarrod_dyke
I'm gonna open this up myself to broader things.
00:33:28
jarrod_dyke
For me, I'll go first, Christophe Ridley. in the South Africa Argentina game.
00:33:35
Grumpy Old Prop
i
00:33:36
jarrod_dyke
Didn't think, I didn actually didn't have that many times where I was like, what are you doing you moron? And I do that a lot with him usually.
00:33:42
jarrod_dyke
So.
00:33:42
Grumpy Old Prop
See, i i when I was watching it, I felt a lot more of the, oh, it's Kristoff making that call.
00:33:47
jarrod_dyke
um Maybe I'm used to it and that's why. but I'll give you that.
00:33:47
Grumpy Old Prop
I get it.
00:33:50
Grumpy Old Prop
Like it was, but here's the thing. It was, it was a lack of surprise at the silly, some of the the weird calls he made, but at the same time he was consistent.
00:33:57
jarrod_dyke
Mm hmm.
00:34:00
Grumpy Old Prop
So he said that that these are the laws we're playing under. Okay. That's fine.
00:34:03
jarrod_dyke
Yeah. ah I suppose sometimes that's what what we really want out of these guys is consistency.
00:34:08
Grumpy Old Prop
That's all I yeah. If it's yeah.
00:34:09
jarrod_dyke
Don't, don't fuck around with it. If you're, if you got one thing in your head about what the law looks like, all right, we do use that across the board. You know, apart from like silly laws, like jumping into tackles and calling it on the tackler.
00:34:17
Grumpy Old Prop
Right.
00:34:22
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah, yeah. Yeah, there was nothing glaring that was like, Oh, we got that way wrong. It was just, you're right.
00:34:27
jarrod_dyke
Yeah.
00:34:28
Grumpy Old Prop
It was, it was normal, but fuckery.
00:34:30
jarrod_dyke
Yeah. Yep. Do you have anybody else you want to add into there?
00:34:38
Grumpy Old Prop
um I'm going to go back to my, my choice of Kyle Hetherill, who played a punched above his weight at eight.
00:34:42
jarrod_dyke
Okay.
00:34:45
jarrod_dyke
Good for him. Good for him.
00:34:47
Grumpy Old Prop
Like, and I could go for a couple of the, you know, I thought, Leibenberg did say there was there by a lot of that Lester pack, I thought punched above their weight.
00:34:51
jarrod_dyke
Good for them. We said butt fuckery. Well, butt.
00:34:59
Grumpy Old Prop
so
00:35:00
jarrod_dyke
I will refer to him when he's having a good game as Will Bottom.
00:35:04
jarrod_dyke
And when he's having a bad game as Will Ass.
00:35:04
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah, he's real but you know well, will Will Tommader.
00:35:10
jarrod_dyke
Yeah, you know, and I was like, huh, that's a weird one for me to to see Redpath on in there. I assume Redpath's banged up or something, but, but, but, but, but, but played well.
00:35:22
Grumpy Old Prop
There was, I also liked the commentary, like I think that had Jess and me looking at each other and cracking up. It was like, um, how well butt looks or something like how how good he looks.
00:35:35
jarrod_dyke
ah How good that butt looks?
00:35:35
Grumpy Old Prop
And it's like, yeah, it was, it was one of those like, is he meaning to say that this way?
00:35:41
Grumpy Old Prop
Um, which yes, we hope it was exactly.
00:35:43
jarrod_dyke
If it was Mullins, I wouldn't be surprised.
00:35:47
Grumpy Old Prop
Um,
00:35:47
jarrod_dyke
um ah Any other satosh in the ring?
00:35:52
Grumpy Old Prop
Um, no, not really. Like I said, Lester's pack was the one that really like showed up for me.
00:35:59
jarrod_dyke
So, all either of those. Got it.
00:36:01
Grumpy Old Prop
All of them.
00:36:02
jarrod_dyke
Maybe there's a few subs to go in there too.
00:36:05
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah, no, I mean, Rafale scored the winning try like.
00:36:06
jarrod_dyke
Like Raphael. Yeah. True. True.
00:36:09
Grumpy Old Prop
No, no question.
00:36:11
jarrod_dyke
Yep. I do want to throw Tom Wright back into this bucket as well, despite the fact that Walby's lost it. Like he he showed up big time for them and nearly
00:36:20
Grumpy Old Prop
Mm hmm.
The Rugby Championship and Key Performances
00:36:23
jarrod_dyke
got them over the line.
00:36:23
jarrod_dyke
like I mean, we can talk about TRC and how the fact that if Australia hadn't waited till the last like what, 50 minutes or last 40 minutes to wake the hell up, they probably would have won this game.
00:36:36
Grumpy Old Prop
I think so. They really they poached it in the first half.
00:36:40
jarrod_dyke
Which leads me to one of mine who shit the bed and Razor. I mean, he's kind of shot the bed the whole summer, but like really just... Australia are not good. We can all admit that. The fact that New Zealand got pushed by them and I know Australia i know australia will always get gear themselves up against the All Blacks, it's never a question, but
00:36:45
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah, yep.
00:37:03
jarrod_dyke
They should be ready for that, and that shouldn't be a fucking shock to them, and ugh.
00:37:07
Grumpy Old Prop
Like, by the way, Will Jordan is really good at fullback. um So, and I say this to both. Um, both coaches, I guess. Right. Hey, Ozzie.
00:37:20
Grumpy Old Prop
Will Jordan is really good. You might want to try tackling him instead of just letting him run through your line.
00:37:23
jarrod_dyke
Yeah, put a body on him, dude.
00:37:25
Grumpy Old Prop
Okay. That that's just first, first, first for you guys. That was a little, that should have been covered. As soon as I saw that I didn't, I hadn't, I kind of skipped right to the kickoff. So I missed it. That Bowdoin was, was out.
00:37:37
Grumpy Old Prop
Um, And so when I saw it go through and it like it was like, I knew it was the 15 position. just re So I was like, oh, but wait, that's not Bowdoin. It confused me.
00:37:48
Grumpy Old Prop
um But here's the thing, whether it's Bowdoin or whether it's um Will Jordan.
00:37:50
jarrod_dyke
Right Yep need to need to need to guys
00:37:54
Grumpy Old Prop
And Will Jordan's a lot more dangerous. He's still got to defend it. um that's that was like That's an easy play for this but the Kiwis to make.
00:38:04
Grumpy Old Prop
So. um And also, but then also just to razor, um, your best lineup includes Bowdoin at 10 and Will Jordan at 15.
00:38:14
jarrod_dyke
Yep.
00:38:15
Grumpy Old Prop
Even if that means bringing that douchebag into 14.
00:38:16
jarrod_dyke
Okay.
00:38:19
Grumpy Old Prop
Cause all the negative things I can say about him, dude can play.
00:38:19
jarrod_dyke
Yeah. Sad.
00:38:24
jarrod_dyke
Yeah. I, I, it's never been a question about that.
00:38:24
Grumpy Old Prop
So although I'd i'd still rather, right.
00:38:27
Grumpy Old Prop
I'd still rather have Talia with Clark, but that's, that's just me.
00:38:31
jarrod_dyke
Same.
00:38:32
Grumpy Old Prop
But either way, get the fuck Mackenzie out of there.
00:38:35
jarrod_dyke
Yeah. Uh, any, any shat the beds besides that one?
00:38:41
Grumpy Old Prop
um
00:38:43
Grumpy Old Prop
the The Kiwis base and not the Kiwis the fuck this ah the the screen box after maybe what 13 minutes in they're leading 17 nothing Although I'm not I'm gonna defend the Bach on this um Not the fact that he should have have um Made it but she should have that was it.
00:38:49
jarrod_dyke
Yeah, I was going to say right. I was going to say Lou Bocken as a as a guy, the guy that missed the pen. I mean, I'm not one to pile on, but I'm going to pile on.
00:39:07
Grumpy Old Prop
That's a gimme um Not his fault they lost because he was not on the pitch when they gave up what like four straight tries Like just got hoosed for 25 minutes or so like hoof right up the cooter Not good
00:39:15
jarrod_dyke
True.
00:39:25
jarrod_dyke
Right. No, it was. Oh, yeah. I mean, the whole thing was not good.
00:39:32
Grumpy Old Prop
So, like, he was on he was on for the end, yeah, but i would I would be having a hard look at the people who who were on the pitch when they were giving up the tries that made made the game.
00:39:44
jarrod_dyke
Yep. There you go.
00:39:45
Grumpy Old Prop
So that's that's my def defense of Lebok, is that not that he should have made it, he should have made it, no question about it, but that should have made it
00:39:52
Grumpy Old Prop
like another three points on the victory. It should have been like, you know, 45 points instead of 42 or something along those lines, like.
00:40:02
jarrod_dyke
Right. And shouldn't have made it for the win. Should have made it for this. This is the end of the game.
00:40:07
Grumpy Old Prop
Right.
00:40:08
jarrod_dyke
Not the win.
00:40:09
Grumpy Old Prop
Right. Should have been like, oh, man, I missed that kick, but but whatever who gives a shit, we won by 30. Like that's what it should have been.
00:40:13
jarrod_dyke
Bright and something like that.
00:40:15
Grumpy Old Prop
and
00:40:17
jarrod_dyke
ah Leads us to our little segment of players that don't necessarily, things that don't necessarily get the recognition that they deserve.
00:40:29
jarrod_dyke
Um, I coach a referee and a young player that we kind of want to point out, uh, for me, while I want to give, um, ample credit to Michael checker, we kind of breezed over him for Lester and wrongfully so, but we did.
00:40:44
jarrod_dyke
So I want to give him credit for getting his first one at Lester.
00:40:45
Grumpy Old Prop
and We like check out this this was not ah an intentional we we're not sliding him not oversight on that just Just negligence.
00:40:49
jarrod_dyke
No. No, no, no. Honest oversight.
00:40:55
jarrod_dyke
um But for me, it's fully paid content for me and not just for this weekend, this whole TRC that he, I think he's the first one to beat all three in one championship for Argentina.
00:40:55
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah
00:41:09
Grumpy Old Prop
I mean, that's I mean, no one no one else could do that. So, um yeah, no, it's really very impressive.
00:41:13
jarrod_dyke
I think he's the first one so good on him.
00:41:20
jarrod_dyke
Yeah, got him.
00:41:20
Grumpy Old Prop
And big win.
00:41:21
Grumpy Old Prop
And I'm going with Cheka, though, because because we it was the oversight from from last week.
00:41:24
jarrod_dyke
Okay, good.
Highlighting Young Rugby Talent
00:41:26
jarrod_dyke
Yep.
00:41:27
Grumpy Old Prop
And and I'd mad respect to it like.
00:41:28
jarrod_dyke
Yep.
00:41:32
Grumpy Old Prop
Again, someone I thought wild decisions you made, how they're all at eight. um that turned out to be pretty damn okay. and you know Not that I don't trust him. you know when When I saw it, I was like, you know what?
00:41:42
Grumpy Old Prop
I could see it happening. um And then I actually saw it happening, which was fun. um Yeah, and then it happened.
00:41:47
jarrod_dyke
and It happened.
00:41:51
jarrod_dyke
Um, referee, I thought Luke Pierce set the weekend up really well on the prem. So I'm i'm going to give it to him. Um, we, maybe let's listen to this for longer than five seconds.
00:42:02
jarrod_dyke
Knows that I'm a big Luke Pierce fan anyway, but yes, I'm going to give it to him for the weekend because you know, he, we, the big, the big thing on the weekend was get the hell back on the kicks and he did not mess around.
00:42:13
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah. Nope.
00:42:14
jarrod_dyke
So, you know, he set the whole, the whole thing up well. So good on him.
00:42:18
Grumpy Old Prop
And, um, the, the, you've run out of patience, Ben, like with his he's like, you've had five seconds. We're not doing that again. Like that was, you know, well played.
00:42:24
jarrod_dyke
ah
00:42:27
jarrod_dyke
Yeah, that was good.
00:42:29
Grumpy Old Prop
because you good No, we want we want refs to do that. And if a player is pushing it, yeah, okay. like unless you know Unless they go way over the top and then you have to, okay, fine.
00:42:39
Grumpy Old Prop
um Which you know that means like six seconds, not just like 5.5. I think Spencer was going five and a half and he's like, dude, you're pushing it.
00:42:44
jarrod_dyke
right
00:42:50
Grumpy Old Prop
Like um next time, five and a half is gonna be six. um And it speeds up the game, good shit. We need refs to do that.
00:42:56
jarrod_dyke
Yeah, totally.
00:43:00
jarrod_dyke
Yeah, it was Luke years as well.
00:43:02
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah, yep.
00:43:03
jarrod_dyke
Okay. Good to know. Making sure that a young player. I know we we kind of talk, you and I talked about what qualifies this. I was very impressed with George Barton this weekend on from Gloucester that they're the guy that stood at fullback, but usually plays 10 kicking, kicking boots were strapped on and ready to roll as well.
00:43:21
jarrod_dyke
So I, um, I was impressed with him. I think. Should he continue that type of form that does give Gloucester a glimmer of hope because they, the more dangerous their back three is the better.
00:43:33
jarrod_dyke
And, you know, Wade helps obviously, uh, thoroughly helps. Obviously. Um, I think the Hathaway kid's going to be lightning in a bottle.
00:43:37
Grumpy Old Prop
Right.
00:43:40
jarrod_dyke
So awesome. Giving them one more option back there. Santi Carreras has probably ended up playing fullback with ants come in town. So that'll help them as well.
00:43:47
Grumpy Old Prop
Right.
00:43:48
jarrod_dyke
Um, I think there's a lot of good that can come from having just that one more guy that can get in there and also. you know Nailed nail the chicks and he was on, so good on him. Well done, George Barton.
00:44:00
Grumpy Old Prop
So I. There really weren't many to choose from this week, and I hadn't considered Barton, so that's ah that's a good shout too.
00:44:08
Grumpy Old Prop
but really they were There were two that I saw that really I wanted to get a ah good look at, and that's Brown Bembo from ah Exeter, and then Tobias Elliott from, obviously, Saracens.
00:44:08
jarrod_dyke
This is why there's two of us. Exeter. Whoop, whoop.
00:44:24
Grumpy Old Prop
And because I'm looking, you know, I want to see that like it's when um BB came on. They were like this, you know, they're, they're saying he's another, um, they were both so, and I'm like, okay, now you, you have my interest and my attention.
00:44:39
jarrod_dyke
You have my attention.
00:44:41
Grumpy Old Prop
So let's let's see what you got. And they they had to bring them on pretty, pretty early. Cause I can't remember who got hurt. Um,
00:44:46
jarrod_dyke
a
00:44:49
jarrod_dyke
I say it was, I think it was favorable, so maybe.
00:44:52
Grumpy Old Prop
it was one of the centers. I thought.
00:44:53
jarrod_dyke
Oh, was it? Okay, in which case, nevermind.
00:44:55
Grumpy Old Prop
Because I'm pretty sure he came on at center. Let's see.
00:44:59
jarrod_dyke
I can't see, don't remember what I saw in terms of that marker.
00:44:59
Grumpy Old Prop
Where is it? There you are.
00:45:04
jarrod_dyke
Scroll down.
00:45:05
jarrod_dyke
I actually have it open still. Let's see came on for came on for Hammersley.
00:45:05
Grumpy Old Prop
um
00:45:09
Grumpy Old Prop
Hammersley at six minutes.
00:45:12
jarrod_dyke
Okay, there you go. That's the winner Yeah,
00:45:13
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah, because Hammersley got hurt. um
00:45:16
jarrod_dyke
there it is right there And that was the end
00:45:18
Grumpy Old Prop
And, uh, like he ran, he ran okay all the way to the tackle. There was definitely no, not the dodge duck, duck, dip, dive, or dodge that I was expecting. Um, so, and then to put it put it this way, Tobias Elliott beat more, uh, defenders on his try ah alone than Bump Brown Bumpo beat all day.
00:45:45
Grumpy Old Prop
I think he had one defender beaten, um whereas Elliot dodged two just to score one try.
00:45:47
jarrod_dyke
Yeah, so learn how to get by those.
00:45:52
Grumpy Old Prop
So I'm going to give the nod to, you know, this isn't a complete homer pick. It's just that there was, you know, i there were guys I was looking for and still the Saris guy wins for me.
00:46:04
jarrod_dyke
we And then we're gonna go into try the week. For me, it was the second Andy Christie try.
00:46:17
jarrod_dyke
Up that ladder, I was like, Catherine looks at me, she's like, was that legal? I was like 100%.
00:46:22
Grumpy Old Prop
Yeah.
00:46:22
jarrod_dyke
Nobody knew it was coming though.
00:46:25
Grumpy Old Prop
There were, to be fair, there were a bunch of like, so I had Roddy's try as one of mine as, as ah a, um, actually it's the honorable mention, but, um, the other, the, my actual try of the week is more, um, uh, it makes me feel better.
00:46:30
jarrod_dyke
Nice. so so Yeah.
00:46:44
Grumpy Old Prop
Because again, there there were a lot of sari tries like the, um, what was it? Uh, the, the Vencell try.
00:46:49
jarrod_dyke
Yes.
00:46:50
Grumpy Old Prop
getting thank Thank you for the ball.
00:46:51
jarrod_dyke
oh Oh man.
00:46:53
Grumpy Old Prop
I'm going to run over here now.
00:46:55
jarrod_dyke
He's like, there's two things that are happening here. Either you're scoring or I'm scoring. I don't know which one's going to happen, but here it is.
00:46:59
Grumpy Old Prop
Right.
00:47:00
jarrod_dyke
And it's going to decide that it was going to be red sail.
00:47:01
Grumpy Old Prop
And they threw it right to him. Yep.
00:47:04
jarrod_dyke
Thank you. Goodbye. I was like, Oh, he's gone.
00:47:06
Grumpy Old Prop
here. but Yeah, one of us could score. Oh, there you are. You take it. Like, it was almost a water boy. Like, like, here, you take them all.
00:47:15
jarrod_dyke
ah Yeah, you take the ball so you can try and tackle him.
00:47:24
Grumpy Old Prop
Anywho, yeah, no no shortage of of of of but kind of um fun tries from that Saris match.
00:47:24
jarrod_dyke
oy

00:47:34
Grumpy Old Prop
So

jarrod_dyke
Good times. Great Aussies. um Player of the week, and I went a little bit abroad for this one because I won't felt like there were things that needed to be acknowledged.
00:47:48
jarrod_dyke
But player of the week for for me was Abornas from Argentina. Played brilliantly.
00:47:56
Grumpy Old Prop

Silvermarrow goes to Hanyani Shimangi from the south South Africa commentary, just the arrogance about the forward pack and so on and so forth.

This is an amazing team. Like the way they performed this season in last, no way to describe it other than that. But when you have guys like this, that just, you know, try and twist the knife and, you know, just needle you needle at things.

Yeah, home team.
00:53:13
jarrod_dyke
Yep. I'm sure sale will be more up for this coming, this game against Saracens, but Saracens at home, especially since they kind of crashed the party last year.
00:53:24
jarrod_dyke
Sale did at home last, uh, last game of the week of the regular season. I'm betting Saracens have that on their mind. Those that were there. So I'm going to take the series.
00:53:34
Grumpy Old Prop
I too, I'm going to take Sarries. I think that also, again, I think it was more what Sarries, the way they played that game than really sale, um, playing all that well. Um, but the scoreboard was reflective of both teams' efforts.
00:53:47
Grumpy Old Prop
So there you go. So, you know, again, if Sarries play the way they played week one, they'll win.
00:53:49
