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 2: Ulster vs. Connacht (URC Rd. 8)","slug":"wsotr-series-1-episode-2-ulster-vs-connacht-urc-rd-8","published_at":"2026-01-16T23:48:45+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/wrong-side-of-the-ruck-7651572/wsotr-series-1-episode-2-ulster-vs-connacht-urc-rd-8","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-2-Ulster-vs--Connacht-URC-Rd--8-e3dp28f","audio_url":"https://anchor.fm/s/10db6aff4/podcast/play/114116303/https%3A%2F%2Fd3ctxlq1ktw2nl.cloudfront.net%2Fstaging%2F2026-0-16%2F9620b239-26d8-0244-ec9d-334b0bacf937.mp3","summary":"Welcome back to Wrong Side and Episode 2! This week we sit down over a cold one and dive into this Irish Darby. Watch along with us if you can and enjoy momentum swings, questionable calls, and plenty of moments where one of us is convinced the match is about to flip completely. We talk through what Connacht are trying to build, where Ulster look dangerous, and how quickly confidence can turn into panic when things go sideways. We analyze as we go, pointing out what may matter, overreact when things don't and have way too many side conversations about points we started 30 seconds ago. No polish, no neutral tone, just rugby and the opinions of two of your best friends. Press play, throw the game on and come argue with us. Cause we may not be right, but we refuse to be quiet.","meta_description":"Welcome back to Wrong Side and Episode 2! This week we sit down over a cold one and dive into this Irish Darby.
