S4: The 2014 Rugby World Cup: 10 Years On

The GSR family, Scaz, Mo, Elma, Katy Daley-Mclean & Meg Jones meet at the Cabbage Patch for a Christmas dinner with all the trimmings. Trimming include but are not limited to, pigs in blankets, Secret Santa, not-so-Secret Santa & a very special FaceTime with Mo’s grandma. Expect infectious high jinx & festive cheer.

USA rugby is on the rise, so this week, Kate Zackary hosts Scaz & Elma at Trailfinders Women in Ealing. They might be the new kids on the block, but they’re taking the top teams in the league to task… not dissimilar to the USA on the international stage right now. They discuss Kate’s leadership of both sides, take a look around the place & learn all Whisky Sour Paws’ adventures.

Scaz’s Loughborough Lightning take on Mo’s Gloucester-Hartpury at Franklins Gardens this Sunday, so to preview the game & all the other big PWR news…cough cough, Ilona Maher 🐻… they’re joined by a pair of siblings who sit on either side of the rivalry; GH & England back row, Sarah Beckett & her older brother, Loughborough's Assistant coach, Charlie Beckett. Things get heated as the team discuss the upcoming game, but luckily the Becketts remembered their FFTJ, so things didn’t bubble over. & Scaz pays her debt to Elma after the Broses lost to the Boks, which it might be worth a trip to YouTube...

Mo’s travelled to Wales this week to visit Hartpury’s rivals, Cardiff Met. Twenty three of the squad are going to be competing in the Celtic Challenge this December, so she’s gone to find out what’s in the water over the Severn Bridge... Mo’s joined by Lisa Newton, Head Coach at Cardiff Met, recently retired Wales & Bristol fly half, Elinor Snowsill, who is now Assistant Coach at the uni & Alisha Joyce-Butchers, Wales & Bristol back row, who is mentoring one of the squad, as part of GSR & Vodafone’s EmpowHER programme. Their debate about who Wales’ next Head Coach should be isn’t to be missed…

Canadian centre & Olympic silver medalist, Alysha Corrigan, joins Scaz, Mo & Elma this week, to relive the games in Paris & discuss Canada’s ascent to the top of the 15s game. We hear all about Scaz & Alysha’s match up in New Zealand during the World Cup & how Mo thinks her medal box looks like Paddington Bears’ lunchbox. Also Elma won’t drop the killer whale story, so this week Shira’s left it in. You’re all welcome.
