Lee Calvert from the outstanding Blood & Mud rugby podcast joined Brett McKay & Harry Jones on The 8-9 Combo Rugby Podcast to try and make sense of a Champions Cup Final that not too many saw coming, to contemplate where, if anywhere, Northampton and Bordeaux will find their point of difference, and just where 1980s mega group Duran Duran fits into this complicated picture. Plus, Lee shares some thoughts on the latest developments in Welsh Rugby, where having maintained four professional sides equally as part of a long-term strategy launched in 2024, the WRU announced an intention to implement a new two-tier funding system amid reports it intends to cut a team from its professional tier, reports which the Union has neither confirmed nor denied.

The Six Nations is in full flow and rugby fans in England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales are flocking to stadiums to watch the likes of Maro Itoje, Antoine Dupont and Fin Russell. But does it paint a false picture of the sport's popularity in the UK? There are those who would tell you that Rugby Union is dying in Britain. The WRU and the RFU are in crisis. There is no money in it, attendances are down and clubs are going out of business. We are constantly hearing that there is a desperate need for a shake up, ranging from law changes to new marketing strategies and everything in between. But is that really what's needed? I was joined by CityAM Deputy Sports Editor Matt Hardy to debate the health of Rugby in Britain, is there really a doomsday scenario right around the corner or is there yet hope for the game we love? We draw on examples from club rugby, test rugby and women's rugby to reach our conclusion and give our verdict on what should be the sport's next move.
