The Midlands Rugby Podcast

This week Goat & Eggy discuss changing rooms, facilities, after match entertainment, after match food and of course, beer.

This week we have no special guest, but the boys just chat rugby! How is your season going? Want to tell us? Come on to the Pod!

They are back! The boys took a month off! Lots has changed! Goat is 30 and now a first teamer, and Phil is still, well actually he hasn't changed. This week, the lads talk to Llyr Griffiths, who is the Skipper for British Police. We talk Burton, Welsh Rugby and of course... Police Rugby!

It is nearly Christmas, and talking to a Bake Off finalist definitely gives off Christmas Vibes!

We talk everything Bake Off, the Hollywood Handshake and Syston Rugby Club

This week the lads speak to Assistant Coach at Paviors RFC (and one of the biggest nauses we have come across), Jonty Green. We speak Colt's participation, American Rugby and of course, where the Midlands is at in the terms of Rugby!

This week, the lads speak to Nottingham Head Coach and former player, Craig 'Hammo' Hammond. We talk Ireland Avenue, Nicknames, Old Nottingham nights out and Hong Kong. If you would like to be a guest on the show, please let us know on Instagram or Facebook!

This week, Goat & Eggy catch up with Mellish Ladies coach Matt Bright. We talk all things Women's Rugby, along with a mysterious glass eye... who knows?

Do you want to come on to the Midlands Rugby Podcast? Yes? Well, drop us a message on Instagram and we will organise a date to record!

This week Goat & Eggy speak to one of the NLD's favourite referees, James Fisher! Many have laughed with Fish, and many have also been told off. We discuss what it is like referring in the NLD, what Fish's worst Rugby Memory is and also delve in to his experiences as an openly gay man on and off the pitch. Well worth a listen...

We apologise for Phil's inability to open up an adult conversation.

The boys are back... and as unknowledgeable as ever! It blows our mind every time that people want to listen to Goat & Eggy talk, but you must have your own reasons... maybe it was Goat's trailer from the summer.

This week the lads speak to a member of the Rugby Royal Family, Rob McGeechan. As you may have guessed from the surname, Rob is the son of Sir Ian McGeechan, former Scotland and British and Irish Lions Coach. The lads talk about what it is like growing up as the Son of Sir Ian, community rugby and how to set up a team for members of our community with additional needs. Such a good pod! If you want to be a guest on the Midlands Rugby Podcast, just drop us a message on Instagram or Facebook.

The boys are back, and talking to Veseyans hooker, Adam Baldock.

The lads talk about how the season has gone, the Papa John's Cup and also how we can better improve Recruitment and Retention in the sport.

If you would like to come on to the pod, do what Adam has done and just drop us a message on instagram!

This week the boys talk to Paviors front row, Jake Baldry. Jake broke in to the Paviors rugby team at the end of last season and has held down his spot. 

The lads talk Six Nations (bit late), Community Rugby and our favourite topic, the tackle height law change!

This week, after 3 weeks off, Goat and Eggy speak to Nick Dyson from Scunthorpe! 

The boys discuss the new tackle height rule, what Midland's rugby is like and also find out how Eggy want on a rampage at a local hospital. Takes some stopping!

If you want to be on the Podcast, just drop us a message on Facebook and Instagram, and we will get back to you as soon as possible!

The lads have had our extended time off, and while we've been away a lot has happened.

The boys discuss Steve Borthwick's new squad, and Eddie Jones' new job as Australia Head Coach! There has been a severe lack of Rugby played in the Midlands, so we stuck to international rugby.

This pod was recorded before the new law change which has hit the media, but we have written to Bill Sweeney displaying our thoughts. If you would like to see what we wrote, head to our Instagram or Facebook!

This week the boys talk to Lincoln RFC's Director of Rugby, Dougie Gordon. This week the hot topics are Eddie's sacking, Women's & Girls Rugby and a cheap trip to Las Vegas. 

If you, or someone from your club want to come on to the pod, just drop us a message on Instagram and we will get back to you as soon as possible. 

Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year 

After another week off (the lads have moved to a bi-weekly pod until Goaty can sort his life out), the lads are back! They discuss all things red roses, international rugby and Midlands Counties 1. If you want to be on the pod, message us on Instagram or Facebook, and we will sort it out!

After two weeks off (poorly boys) the lads are back with a friend of the pod returning! This week it is former Northampton Saint, Wasps and Stade Scrum-Half, Charlie Davies.   

We find out what is currently happening down at Chesterfield Panthers Rugby Club, as well as find out how the company Future Smart are helping players from both Wasps and Worcester after both clubs had to terminate the contracts of all staff and players.  

Next week, Scottish international Jenny Maxwell joins the lads to discuss everything Allianz Premier 15s, the World Cup and women's rugby in the Midlands. One not to miss!

This week the lads speak to Wellingborough RFC's member, Owen Tomalin. We hear about the Back to Rugby scheme, an extra tomato at breakfast and Owen's old party trick! 

As well as this, Goat & Eggy do a round up of all the Counties 3 (Midlands) leagues. We apologise in advance... they don't know much about the West Midlands... and it shows. 

This week we talk to Oundle's Director of Rugby, Jon Phillips. The lads discuss how rugby has changed, how it needs to change, and one or two stories about some people you may know.
