About this episode

The episode reviews the performance of rugby teams during the festive season, highlighting standout players and addressing key incidents.

It's the festive season, which is when we find out who has been naughty or nice, or in ERB's world which teams had good years, average years, and a season to forget. Ant, Phil, and a returning Andy have a look at standout players and moments for each of the top 12 sides. Oh, yes, we also address the extremely disappointing Eben incident and the needless Wales rout, while also touching on a tremendous Stormers result and a surprising Jukskei derby. Music by @monstroid, 80s TV Show.
