Five Lives, Rugby Union Weekly.

Right, rugby union weekly, nation's pod time, and it's quite fitting that we are now

at a full complement of three. Tom, English last week, just the two of us.

Because there were just two games. It kind of made sense.

It did. But really, I think the autumn starts now.

Yeah, this is, in the words of the immortal WWE commentator Jim Ross, business is about to pick up.

Because not only is Garth Riesowing back in town, but Wales are in action, Ireland

are in action, all the home nations get going, Ireland is even Friday, England Australia

Saturday, Wales, Fiji Sunday, Scotland, South Africa Sunday, it's kind of, you know, autumn weekends

don't get better than this kind of stuff grow. Rick Flair is in the building, ready to do it.

I really missed you last week.

It was quite nice to listen to two very comforting voices

and being relatively complimentary to me as well,

but at the same time I did feel like I was missing out

and it just did highlight the idea when, you know,

traditionally it's been Wales more than any other nation who have played

four matches in the Autumn International, as much as a disappointment

of some of the clubs and the regions, etc.

But this time around, that's just playing three. That's very unlike Wales, isn't it? Yeah, etc. But this time around, us just playing three.

That's very unlike Wales, isn't it? Yeah, yeah. It's get them all in. I remember covering a Wales-New Zealand game, but it was really low-key. It was out the window, and everyone was like, should it be happening? So quite restraint for them just to play the three. The WRU rolling in money, grow, they don't need that fourth game anymore

don't start
