  • Summary

  • Join Rob and Rich, two English 'Rosbif' Francophiles, as they dive into the heart of French rugby. From the glitz and glamour of the Top14, the madness of ProD2 and the highs and lows of Les Bleus on the international stage, this podcast is a love letter to France's beautiful game. There's stories from travels to France, dubious insights into French cuisine and culture, and even the odd bit of advice on getting you out to watch a game. Whether you're a die-hard French rugby nerd, curious about the towns and cities central to the game across the Channel, or just enjoy the odd tall tale from our special guests, The Rosbifs Rugby Podcast has you covered!
