Hello Offside Liners, welcome to this week’s show. The curse of the All Blacks continues for another year. Barney and Burnsy dive into an analysis of the game, go over domestic fixtures and other autumn Test and preview Scotland versus Argentina this weekend. Enjoy (if you can)!

This week, things go a little bit off kilter as Barney and Burnsy delve into the Curse of the All Blacks, pick over Scotland’s victory over the USA and dredge up old nightmares of Barney Snr’s Hawick scarf.

Barney was meant to be having a thoroughly well-deserved day off – but he couldn’t stay off the pod. This week the boys delve into a preview for Scotland-USA, Lee Radford’s teeth, Gemma Fay’s appointment as first Managing Director of Women’s Rugby, Border clubs boycotting the Scottish Cup, a tribute to the late, great Terence Froud, and a round-up of last weekend’s fixtures.

Hello Offside Liners, welcome to this week’s show. Apologies there was no show last week, but Burnsy forgot that he was away on holiday. He and Barney catch up to discuss the resurrection of the Scotland/GB Men’s Sevens squad, cast an eye over the Scotland squad ahead of Gregor Townsend’s announcement on Tuesday, and delve into the latest URC and domestic Premiership action.

This week Barney and Burnsy eventually get the podcast over the line at the third attempt – and they delve into the latest results in the men and women’s Scottish Premierships, the URC and the Rugby Championship before taking a deep dive into R360 while also scrutinising Gregor Townsend’s new role with Red Bull and the appointment of Lee Radford as Scotland defence coach. It’s all a bit of a shambles – but a fun one!
