Spritz & Scrums - Italian Rugby Podcast

The front-flipping legend Rhyno Smith joins us in an extended interview to talk all things drop goals, playoff hopes, the big game against Edinburgh this weekend, and (most importantly) which of the Benetton boys does the best BBQ in Treviso. A brilliant chat with a brilliant man. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Who would have thought we'd head down to South Africa and come away with 4 bloody points! What a week, playoff hopes are still alive and kicking. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

For the second year in a row Benetton take a defeat in the Challenge Cup Semi-final. We came, we saw, we did not conquer. But we discuss what hopes we have for the rest of the URC season! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We discuss how Benetton took 2 points/lost two points in Belfast, what's happened to Zebre & Coach gives a rallying war cry for the big semi final game at the weekend! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Benetton get a much needed bonus point victory over the Dragons and Zebre have put in a solid first half performance against Connacht but still end in a horrid scoreline. We also discuss where we would like the autumn games to played in Italy - Portofino gets vetoed. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week we talk about Benetton's win against Connacht to earn a place in the EPCR Challenge Cup Semi Final. We also talk about your mum! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We are (finally!) back to talk about the Italian rugby we've missed! With a close look at Challenge Cup games against the Lions and the Sharks and also how they went to Africa without Coach. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

NO WOODEN SPOON! We chat about how impressive Italy's Six Nation's campaign really was and talk about how the future is looking bright. We also learn that Coach can't tell Welsh people apart. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Italy break an 11 year home game curse by beating Scotland! We talk all about (almost all of us) being at the game, Lord of the Rings and our thoughts on how Italy v Wales on Super Saturday will go down! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

2 Italian defeats (one much more impressive than the other) Munster vs Zebre & Benetton vs Glasgow. We look ahead to the 6 Nations where Italy take on Scotland. We also discuss someone's fear of flying, punctuality and logistics! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
