| 6/2/26 | ![]() Elliot Daly: Joker in the Wolf Pack | Saracens, England and Lions legend Elliot Daly joins the boys for a wide-ranging conversation that's as entertaining off the field as he is on it.

| 5/20/26 | ![]() State of Origin: The Union Way | Before professionalism swept it away, the Divisional Championship packed out Twickenham and launched international careers. Today, we're bringing it back. Armed with current pros, regional pride, and very little agreement on eligibility rules, our panel drafts four teams - North, Midlands, London & South, and the South West - and puts it to you to decide who'd win. Joining the show are World Cup winner and Leicester Tigers legend Ben Kay, and cross-code flying machine Martin "Chariots" Offiah - a man who actually pulled on the London jersey in 1987. Together with Payno and Tins, they argue, haggle, and horse-trade their way through the ultimate fantasy rugby draft. 00:00 🛞 Season 6 is sponsored by Continental Tyres 02:06 🌏 State of Origin Idea 03:16 🏉 Selectors and Memories 08:55 📋 Eligibility Rules 10:14 🔁 Back Three Picks 17:47 ⚔️ Centers 23:40 🎯 Halfbacks 32:07 🔒 NordVPN Break 34:45 💪 Front Row Picks 38:43 🏗️ Second Row Pairings 42:09 🔥 Back Row Debates 52:54 🏆 Who Wins? 54:15 🏟️ Choosing Home Stadiums 57:34 🧠 Picking The Coaches 01:00:04 💭 Can This Concept Actually Happen? 01:01:25 🤜 Grip Strength Challenge 🔐 EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/goodbadrugby Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee 📗 The Good, The Bad & The Rugby: Unloaded: https://lnk.to/GBRUnlocked/waterstones Learn more about your ad choices.
