That’s a wrap on Season 9 and what a way to go out! The lads dive into a wet and chaotic third Lions Test where the Aussies finally clicked to deny the whitewash.

There’s chat on Big Willy Skelton, surprise packages, Player of the Tour, and the shambles around media access down in Aus. Plus, some big news about live shows in the USA, transfer rumours, and the usual shoutouts to legends of the grassroots game. It's been a hell of a season, and this is your definitive wrap-up to finish it off. Rugby Spod out... for now.
