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 12: Lomu, Lot Lizards and Crooked Feeds (Australia vs. New Zealand Tri Nations 2000)","slug":"wsotr-series-1-episode-12-lomu-lot-lizards-and-crooked-feeds-australia-vs-new-zealand-tri-nations-2000","published_at":"2026-04-16T03:14:41+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/wrong-side-of-the-ruck-7651572/wsotr-series-1-episode-12-lomu-lot-lizards-and-crooked-feeds-australia-vs-new-zealand-tri-nations-2000","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/wrong-side-of-the-ruck-7651572","url":"https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wrongsideoftheruck/episodes/WSotR-Series-1-Episode-12-Lomu--Lot-Lizards-and-Crooked-Feeds-Australia-vs--New-Zealand-Tri-Nations-2000-e3hvrgi","audio_url":"https://anchor.fm/s/10db6aff4/podcast/play/118533074/https%3A%2F%2Fd3ctxlq1ktw2nl.cloudfront.net%2Fstaging%2F2026-3-16%2Fcae1cc5c-4515-5276-ae4c-0d8546048a52.mp3","summary":"Triple A couldn't find us back in 2000 in the DeLorean and Tocco doesn't know a thing about Fusion, so we headed over to Australia to watch the greatest game ever played. Or so we're told. Settle down on the couch because this one gets weird fast. Rapid succession tries from New Zealand in the opening minutes have us questioning WHY this is the greatest game ever played, Harambe comes up and we take a hard left at was Jonah Lomu even that good. Somehow our Swiss fan Bielle-Biarray is still on our minds as we lament the chaos that is this match; Crooked feeds, hits that would get you a bunker review and props that make us believe we could have actually gone pro. The couches are full, the beers are cold and the rugby is...questionable. But this is rugby the way we like it, the way it was meant to be watched. On the wrong side of the ruck. Welcome, we think you'll like it here.","meta_description":"Triple A couldn't find us back in 2000 in the DeLorean and Tocco doesn't know a thing about Fusion, so we headed over to Australia to watch the greatest g…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":6523,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/wrong-side-of-the-ruck-7651572/episodes/wsotr-series-1-episode-12-lomu-lot-lizards-and-crooked-feeds-australia-vs-new-zealand-tri-nations-2000/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/wrong-side-of-the-ruck-7651572/wsotr-series-1-episode-12-lomu-lot-lizards-and-crooked-feeds-australia-vs-new-zealand-tri-nations-2000.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
