Coming at rugby from the American fan and player point of view, we break down club and international matches the way they’re actually talked about—after training, at the bar, or in a group chat. We cover leagues from around the world with context, history, tactics, and strong opinions, focusing on why matches matter, not just who won. Smart rugby talk, honest disagreements, no studio polish. We don't claim to be right, we just refuse to be silent.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-12T20:19:09.479897+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/wrong-side-of-the-ruck-7651572"},"episode":{"title":"WSotR Series 1 Episode 11: Vespas, Story Time and a Ferrari (Wales v.

The couch is still cozy and we're getting to all the matches; this one is just for us. Tocco is Sicilian, Jones is Welsh, and sometimes the heart wants what the heart wants. Like a nice Vespa. So while the title was decided elsewhere we caught the highlights first, then settled in and did what we do best; watched the match and talked about almost everything except what was in front of us. There's D1 rugby and a coming of age tale about Boise, Tocco's dad has some swagger that we refuse to elaborate on, and Ferrari the prop gets the full Ferrari treatment. Hot takes about Italy at a World Cup, Bielle-Biarrey makes his way in, and England did England things to Ireland. Just in rugby this time. This may be the end of the Men's Six Nations, but we're just getting started. It's the rugby you've always wanted, just on the Wrong Side of the Ruck. Welcome, we think you'll like it here.","meta_description":"It may have been Super Saturday, and we may have picked an off match, but work with us here.
