The Counter Ruck: The Irish Times Rugby Podcast · What to make of Ireland's rotation for Japan? · 10 Jul 2026 podcast

I thoroughly did. matched

We'll get into why. matched

I mean, it's an easy watch. matched

I know everyone's saying it at the minute, but it's an easy watch at the minute. matched

Although, I was never somebody who kind of hated the game when defences were on top a little bit more. matched

I think I enjoyed appreciating how teams were going about trying to matched

be destructive rather than constructive but I'm equally enjoying it now it's the other way around especially when France All Backs is always one of the good ones and that's certainly delivered and even Ireland didn't play particularly well but pulled something out of the fire so yeah I thoroughly enjoyed it I'm guessing you did were you rude to the sofa all day Saturday? matched

There are worse places to be on a family holiday than France. matched

Yeah. matched

I wanted to ask you, given this, your former life running the laptop and crunching the numbers for Leinster and Scotland, etc. matched

And there was a lot made of in England last week of when they played South Africa. matched

South Africa's new analyst, a guy called Joe Lewis, was England's analyst, I think, from about 2017 onwards, if I'm not mistaken. matched

Yeah. matched

maybe he wasn't the main man, but he was in their system. matched

And, you know, Razzy's posting a tweet after the game with a picture of him holding the trophy in the middle of the coaching staff. matched

We all know Razzy. matched

We know what he's doing. matched

But a point was made that it would have been a big advantage to have that sort of intellectual property playing against England so soon after him losing England. matched

Is that true? matched

Do you think it really is an advantage or is it just the case of there's so much analysis that goes on these days anyway, you don't actually need someone who was on the inside or was that really a big advantage, would you say? matched
