Scarlets away review SAMPLE

William Davies and Alan Deegan luxuriate in the fabulous debut by Mack Hansen as well as the excellence of Bundee Aki and not forgetting about a solid display by Finlay Bealham as the Connacht contingent were a major part of Ireland's destructive display in the victory over Wales in Round 1 of the 2022 6N. We also talk about the other matches in the 6N as well as the impressive win by the U20s where Connacht scrum-half Matthew Devine had an excellent game.

Six Nations Round 1 review 

Well that was a pretty underwhelming way to get back to the bread and butter of the United Rugby Championship. Linley MacKenzie and Dave Finn are on analysis duty to try and pick out some rays of light in the most disappointing display of the season, while Danny Deegan takes us through the match.We here the pre-match thoughts of former Connacht back coach Nigel Carolan and we hear a pretty angry Andy Friend and equally annoyed sounding Sammy Arnold in the post match press conference.We also have a new feature this week where we head down to Murty Rabbitts to get the thoughts of some of the hardcore Connacht fans, something that will happen after every home match, no matter what the result.

Glasgow home review Jan 2022

Well Connacht are certainly the great entertainers in not only URC rugby but in Heineken Champions Cup rugby, all they need to do now is to finish games as strongly as they start.A second week in a row of losing a match from a strong position but with the benefit of both a try bonus point as well as a losing bonus point will hopefully lead to more good lessons as the season develops.Rob Murphy hosts the post match podcast with guests William Davies and Alan Deegan and we here the post match thoughts of Pete Wilkins and Jack Carty.

The No. 1 podcast covering Connacht Rugby

The Craggy Rugby podcast attempts to turn the table on the traditional format for rugby coverage in Ireland. We start with Connacht Rugby and work from there rather than the other way around. During the Rugby season we release a preview and review episode for each and every Connacht game in the URC and European Champions Cup. We also have a mini-pod after the team selection announcement, for each match. Not to mention the Connacht specific stats that we tweet during and after each match. We'll also find time to talk about the big issues in the game. Help us grow by subscribing to the podcast, supporting us on Patreon (patreon.com/craggyrugby) and telling anyone and everyone about our podcast.
