The Breakdown: v2 Rugby Podcast Week2

Hi all, following on from last week's inaugural efforts, once again a bunch of us v2ers have sat around and recorded ourselves chewing the fat on all things rugby.

You can listen to the result here: http://www.v2journal.com/v2-rugby-podcast-2-5th-september-2012.html

We've split things up a bit more this week, so we have separate recordings for:
The Pro12 last weekend and next, plus a debate on whether the enforced resting of players cheapens the league
The Aviva Prem last weekend and next
What's going on in the Top 14, ITM Cup and Currie Cup
International rugby - is Warren Gatland the right man for the Lions, and the Rugby Championship this weekend

As with last week, all feedback welcome.

Sure the schedule of the ITM cup might be pretty taxing on teams defensive systems, with the teams playing approx 3 games evry 10 days, but it does mean for us Kiwis we have live televised games 6 nights out of seven.

Good work Pete, thought you'd leave it until today given that we finished it so late last night.

Looking forward to listening to it later.

Good point Laurie.

Now stop making me feel homesick!

And as we type, Otago is leading Southland 3 nil in Invercargill.

On saturday before the test we've got Auckland versus Waikato, followed by Canterbury versus Wellington, then the test. Yeehaa.

Good stuff guys I'm always looking for new rugby podcasts .
