    Oct 28 2024

    Where Lis and Claire talk about the trip to Ashton Gate where the Saints youngsters did us proud including one young fly half who had a cracking debut but the lights were as expected awful and despite battling hard we came away with nothing. Lis get’s drawn into the story of the Boston Red Sox in 2004 as Claire identified who she thinks could be Saints’ Kevin Millar. We look forward to the Premiership Rugby Cup as Leicester are coming to the Gardens on Friday. And we have a cracking report from Harry and a glimpse of Alfie. Meanwhile, we continue to bump into listeners to the pod in strange places!

    Oct 21 2024

    Where Lis and Claire talking about a great weekend of rugby where all three of our teams won and Towcester had a great time training. We start with the fabulous win under the lights where Saints produced a scintillating half of rugby followed by Claire getting one of her favourite celebration photos in the second half. We talk cake and pikelettes as Lis has done an important delivery. We name our LWP Player of the Match (rightly we recognise a fine young player!) and we name our Sgt Wilson award for outstanding engagement with the referee winner - a first time for a young player in the pack.


    We applaud Lightning’s first win and we talk Ladies Day at Bedford Blues which was a great win followed by a lot of fun at the auction. Harry does a great report from Towcester. It’s a packed episode as usual!
