With the Six Nations underway, it's time to talk rugby. Benjamin Kayser won 47 caps for France, playing club rugby in both The Premiership and Top 14 for the likes of Leicester Tigers and Clermont. Since hanging up his boots, he has become a regular on our screens as a commentator and pundit with ITV. Not afraid to say it how it is, and with an undying passion for the game, there was no one better to sit down with on the eve of the tournament to look at the overall health of the sport. We have had a number of amazing rugby chats on the show, and each one has brought a different perspective and assessment of where the game is strong and where improvements are needed. From a French perspective, the domestic game is in good stead, with media revenues triple that of the Premiership and the financial flexibility to sign the biggest players. But as we discuss on the show, is it too simple or even accurate to blame the salary cap in the Premiership for an inability to match the commercial performance and quality of the French league? By extension, why has it been so important for both domestic leagues and international federations to turn to Private Equity cash? This is unfiltered rugby chat from a former player who knows what needs to happen to bring this sport to a global audience. On today's show we discuss: Premiership vs Top 14: Having played in both, what is the major difference between the two leagues and has it changed since Benjamin was playing? We know a lot about transfer processes in football, but what happens when a rugby player moves clubs? The financial difference between playing in France and England. Why has Top 14 broken away from the Premiership in quality and commercial performance? Has France got its domestic model right? What has attracted billionaires to invest in the French leagues in ways we haven't seen in England? The importance of multi-purpose stadia to drive revenue not reliant on rugby. Rugby Players as Cultural Icons: Why have rugby players found it hard to build a ‘superstar' profile that is needed to drive eyeballs in a sporting environment driven by individuals? Can you be a team player and build your own personal brand? Is it the responsibility of the player or the club/federation to elevate the ‘status' of their talent? Has rugby leveraged media opportunities provided by OTT platforms well enough to compete with Drive to Survive or All or Nothing? The rise of Ilona Maher and the need for a player in the men's game to deliver a level of engagement beyond their work on the field. The Health of International Rugby: International rugby is capable of attracting hundreds of millions of viewers, but how do you transform one time watchers into regular fans? How relationships with club rugby organisations can influence the success of international teams. Should players be eligible for selection if they do not play in their domestic leagues? What are the economics of international rugby? How much are match fees and who gets paid the most?

Mike and Elliott deal, not for the first time, with the sad news that a head coach will be off following the confirmation that Michael Cheika will be leaving the club at the end of the season, and then have a deep dive into who will be filling the void next year. Plus, we are joined by Iain Morton to review the Premiership Cup win against Saints before looking ahead to another home fixture against Nottingham in the same competition.

Never Stop Competing.
Mike and Elliott return after a week off to attempt, unsuccessfully, to solve the same old riddles that keep plaguing our beloved Tigers side after an officiating-inspired collapse against Gloucester sees an opportunity for a depleted Tigers side slip through their fingers. We also look into a raft of exciting re-signings and look ahead to what will likely be a heavily rotated fixture against our old friends, Northampton, in the Premiership Cup.

Mike and Elliott rave about Freddie Steward's goal kicking (does he remind you of a certain other legendary Tigers 15??) and Michael Cheika's hairdryer treatment as the boys overcome a slow start and show glimpses of brilliance in a comfortable win over Ulster. Next up are the reigning champions, Toulouse, where nothing less than an absolute thrashing of our French friends will be acceptable...

Fresh from their back-to-back last-minute tries for Leicester Tigers, Dan Cole & Ben Youngs battle flood and snow to reconvene and relive some vintage Premiership Rugby antics. Plus, we pay tribute to the latest entrant to Jamie George who enters the 300 Club, receive some questionable fan art, and take inspiration from Luke Littler to give back to grassroots rugby.
Mike and Elliott go bonus podding by sitting down with young Tigers star Emeka Illione to ask him about the development of his game, balancing studies and rugby and finding out whether or not there is anything he is actually bad at...
Mike and Elliott take a breather after a pant-ruiningly tense game against Exeter which saw the boys come good at the end, another bonus point win but one which still leaves a number of questions unanswered. Plus, we talk about some potential good news around the corner to be shared by the club and look ahead to the visit of Ulster in the European Cup.

Mike and Elliott awaken from their festive slumbers to relive a nerve-shredding draw - unbelievably, the third consecutive Big Game draw - against Harlequins. Questions around consistency and defence continue to rear their unwelcome heads, but we take solace in the fact that we were rescued by a last minute screamer from Dan Cole. We then turn our attention to an opportunity to get back on the horse proper against an Exeter side coming in off the back of their first league victory of the season in a Double Header at MWWR.

Rugby: Die Springbok-losskakel Handré Pollard sê sy kontrak verstryk binnekort, maar hy is steeds onseker oor sy toekoms by Leicester Tigers. Die 30-jarige Pollard het in 2022 by die Engelse klub aangesluit en 22 keer vir hulle uitgedraf, waarvan vier in hierdie seisoen was. Daar word bespiegel dat hy na Suntory Sungoliath in Japan kan skuif waar hy by sy Bok-spanmaat, Cheslin Kolbe, sal aansluit. Pollard het aan die BBC gesê hy hoop sy kontraksituasie word gou afgehandel.
