In this weeks show the boys look ahead to Round 3 of the Six Nations and some tasty ties to look forward to.
It’s a new dawn for Wales, new head coach in Matt Sherratt, some new faces and hopefully a new result for them. But is there a more daunting task in world rugby right now than the Irish coming to town?
The boys discuss the Irish weaknesses (hint: there are none) and their mindset as they look to continue their barnstorming Six Nations tournament so far.
Meanwhile Ryan will be down at Twickenham for the Calcutta Cup match between England and Scotland…. The Scots hoping to make it five wins in a row but the English are riding a wave of optimism after beating France at the death in round 2.
How do the boys see this one shaping up? How are the Scottish boys feeling after that chastening defeat at the hands of the mighty Irish? Ryan is worried but always picks his heart above his head…. Can Scotland put in that performance that continues this stranglehold they have over England these last few years?
And finally France head to Rome to take on the Italians buoyed by that impressive win over Wales. Which France will we see? The one who couldn’t catch a train when it mattered against England or the one that battered Wales? Surely Antoine Dupont can’t be human two games in a row?
We also hear about Max’s week having beaten Bath and the existential crisis he’s having with not being a slave to the rugby schedule while Ryan went on a competing podcast. We hear how his Trojan horse attempt worked out!
Enjoy!!

ITV detect nord vvp and block 6 nations BS
Maul or Nothing way better than GB “Errrrrr”. Better analysis, funnier and less up your own backsides 😮😮
As a south african living in wales, you tube does not even recommend the gb pod thing. Maul or nothing and koko 🎉 colab for lions ?
The difference is you guys are funny
Ryan suggesting Hask never stops talking about himself is beyond ludicrous as Ryan never shuts up talking about himself.
GBR waaayyyy too ‘jolly hockey sticks’ English 😂
The dark side are too up their own arse
GBX ? The tire salesmen?
Wales could win the next 3 tests , Ireland, England and Scotland need to be careful
I would say behind Murray we have Fintan Gunne, Ben Murphy, Caolan Blade and Matthew Devine. Not too worried in that department.
Oh god, that 'which school did you go to chat' gave me major flashbacks. Two questions posh people always asked:
– what school did you go to?
– do you know X?
Just the starters to try and 'place you'.
(source, went to posh school)
Im guilty of listening to both Podcasts, GBR if i want to listen to something while working, but Maul or Nothing – 1 of the only podcasts ill actually watch and focus on because its more chilled, funnier, and it has the 1 and only Gladiatorial Professor Max Lahiff
Beautiful example of code commentary boys. Godspeed 👍
56:12 its funny isn't it, they want to speed up Rugby, which is already fast and continuous, " but American football us slow AF and like watching paint dry.
The very second one of the lads says something good about Ireland.. Ryan’s insecurity comes SCREAMING out.. reminder.. JGP was injured for South Africa games.. Conor Murray took over very nicely.. not JGP level. But scored tries in both games. Conor is extremely calm and that’ comes with experience. When you have a player like JGP they aren’t replaceable so you just have to adapt
"It would be interesting what would happen with Ireland if JGP was out injured"
Last time this happened Ireland beat South Africa in Durban, with Murray at 9!
To be honest I watch yourself, gbr, koko, love of rugby, flatmans and tommy bowes. I just love the different perspectives and the banter from every individual 👌Oh and wilsons golf channel of course!
There's only one bargain bin and I'm here for it. Plus I have a couch for him in Melbourne.
sexton exists
Ireland cant play without sexton
Sexton retires and Ireland win the six nations
Ireland cant play without JGP
The reality is, yes JGP is amazing, but casey was in class form before it got injured. And even with him injured, of course Murray can do a job.
I get youre trying to find a weakness in Ireland but maybe do better than picking a single player and thinking the team can't function without them.
Any aul lad in a pub can give me that level of insight.
Ireland won last year's 2nd test against Sth Africa without GP, with Murray replaced by Blade at 9.
Like that you are more of the cuff stuff a bit lose most of the time. Much easier to watch and listen to. Good to see Max opening up more and more. Still hoping he will turn up for Scotland one day 💪🏴
When’s the live show in Glasgow ? 🏴🍻
They only talk about England we only get a mention when we are beaten😡😂
Humour boys you’s have more humour than that bunch
Some question over the fitness of Fin and Johnny Grey , and its not Fin`s injury I`m worried about . Personally I would take the wooden spoon if it resulted in Franco being the coach , nothing against Gregor but he`s had a fair crack at the job .
Wils where the hasto episode!!!
Max is ace ….
Anyone notice how Ryan looks like a budget "JD Vance"?
Ryan could’ve gone much harder on Haskell. Things they both talk about themselves, Ryan is entertaining and the stories are fresh- not ones we have heard six times!
What's funny?
Ryan morphing into both Mark and Max….the slick hair, savage stubble.
Max sipping green tea, with 3 empty bottles of bourbon behind him.
Well done to ryan getting on a lions tour, never make up for the BaBas but its thrilling to hear.
Thank you for a cheerful end to a day.
I think Ryan's thoughts on Wales could have legs. Watch this lineout space!
you guys are wayyyyy better than those guys. theyre too up their own arses.
gbr are too biased to listen to
Ireland? Oh World Domination….. BUT, if they miss one player, they might implode against Wales. — ?
Of course, life happens and Ireland could lose to Wales WITH Gibson Park, But it wouldn't be much of a blueprint for World Domination if Ireland did indeed struggle without Gibson Park.
Ireland knows (maybe more than any side, considering their WC QF hoodoo) that they need alternatives for virtually all positions ready to compete at highest level in an instant. They are serious about creating that structure. It's an ongoing process. We don't want clinging to an absolutely exhausted/legless 9 or 10 in our next attempts during WC knockout games. We have well and truly learned our lessons.
Any truth Ryan is now marketing new "vintage" Lions shirts with the legend Wilsoni on the back?
Great pod again, GBR is fun Hask is good value, MON is more wacky and bantery plus Max is a top bloke, Wils wobbles are hilarious. Cheers
Max <3
Great podcast again lads, I find that that GBR has become more of an ‘establishment’ podcast with lots of money and high end sponsors. It just seems a bit safe and there’s only so many times you can hear the same stories from Hask!
Loving the pod…Keep meaning to ask how did you guys connect, what brought you together?
