I think you are missing the point of Rugby AM. As i said in my original post, "for the fans by the fans". Its not trying to be something that its not. Is Rugby AM designed for the non-RL fan? No. Are they bothered? Probably not.

Do Rugby AM ever do [ianything[/i outside Leeds??

Come on now. #SmilinWinkyFace

When this initially started they tried (and failed massively) to take elements of the NRL Footy show. Wayne Godwin of course trying to take on what Beau Ryan did is nothing short of embarrassing - The whole show is a disaster from top to bottom.

Surely it cannot be hard to get a decent RL panel show going...

Do it then.

So, when you criticise a coach or a referee, are you going to do it?

Already have



Both

I find some of the Rugby League podcasts much better entertainment. In particular the Proper Sport, Super League Pod & BBC 5Live RL podcasts. Phil Caplan talks a lot of sense and is very clued up on a wealth of international & domestic RL issues. The only downside to the Proper Sport podcast is that you have to listen to the occasional rant from Gary Schofield.

Have you tried Whippets and Flatcaps with Jon Wilkin and Mark Flanagan and 6 til 8 debate with Oli Holmes and Jy Hitchcox? Both excellent!

Proper Sport podcast, The Last Tackle and the 6 til 8 debate with Oli and Jy are all favourites of mine. I’ve never listened to the one with Jon Wilkin though, I’ll have to give it a try

Its really good. Jon Wilkin is extremely articulate and its good to get current players thoughts on the game as a whole. They have some decent guests on as well. Very good. The guy who hosts it with them is a posh BBC presenter from Eaton or something who went to school with James Haskell. They take mick out of each other alot. It works really well.

Currently enjoying this weeks episode of Rugby AM with Jesse Sene Lefao. Brilliant.

So good, you've watched it twice (soz, couldn't resist!)

Gets the viewing figures up

Only occasional?

I prefer the back chat programme on free sports,it is a much more sensible programme than Rugby am.

That's another programme which is pot luck as to whether it is on at the scheduled time or not. Sick of recording it to find out I've recorded half an episode or some tennis or something or other.

Didn’t even know about this. I’ll check it out. Because I checked out Rugby AM’s last few episodes and it’s poor!

Inexperienced presenting, no structure to the programme, loads of shouting, loads of laughing about things that aren’t funny... it’s like a student programme.

Worst of all they were in the Halifax changing rooms when they were singing about paedophiles with the bloke in a pink wig saying “this is the best team song I’ve heard in a long time”

Rugby AM is horrendous.

WTF?!

I couldn't hear a word they were singing, and half of it was "bleeped" out anyway. To explain the pink wig though, Fax regularly allow charities to come and raise funds at their home games, and this weekend it was breast cancer that was taking centre stage. As a result, there was a fair bit of pink apparel around the place, and they raised around £5k iirc.

12:49... “they’re paedophiles, they’re paedophiles”

Absolutely disgraceful from Rugby AM and Halifax as a club.
