  • WSotR S1E29: TMO Shenanigans, Sexual Scrums and it's 10am Somewhere (AB's vs. RSA 2026 Rd.1)
    2026/08/31

    The couch is ready this week as the Greatest Rivalry is finally here; the All Blacks and South Africa kickoff in Johannesburg. Come grab a seat as Rugby's Greatest Rivalry finally gets the point of view it needs. The Wrong Side.

    Things start off strong with Tocco bringing Tacolini to the party, Jones is on it again with the TMO and the South African scrum gets so sexually dominant we can't stop drooling over the front row. There are the usual Craig fuck ups, confidently incorrect reads and a double double negroni that would make the Mayor of Sicily Proud.

    Cold beer, chaotic reads and just correct enough to make you question why we can be so wrong at times. Welcome to rugby the way you've always loved it. Welcome to the Wrong Side of the Ruck. We think you'll like it here.

  • WSotR S1E28: Trashy Europeans, Joshing Around and a Bad Ass Old Man (Sharks vs. AB's 2026)
    2026/08/24

    The couch is looking a little worse for wear this week; it's the road to Baltimore week 3 and we're stepping into the shark Tank that is Durban to see what Nonu can do against his old teammates.

    Tocco's trashy Europeaness gets the moment it deserves, Jones has to eat his words about just how young Reuben Love is and should he even be at 10, the TMO gets a stern talking to and a 44 year old man shows up for a Haka that'll put a tear in an eye. His first touch looks good enough to have Jones convinced one more season just may be fine. Barb Jones shows up at the end uninvited, there are a few big hits and Tocco spouts off some hot takes about benching your starters.

    Cold beer in hand, good people to argue with, confidently incorrect takes you've always loved. Welcome to the Wrong Side of the Ruck. We think you'll like it here.

  • WSotR S1E27: Ear Pulls, A Koenig Special and a Yellow for the New Guy (Currie Cup Bulls v. Pumas 2026)
    2026/08/17

    Welcome back to the Road to Baltimore here on Wrong Side of the Ruck where the couch is nestled somewhere in South Africa and the boys are taking a look at the provincial rugby from Currie Cup. I don't know about you, but nothing screams Saffa rugby more than a bakers dozen of cards.

    The Bulls hosted their first home game against the Pumas and we actually talked rugby this time. We swear. There was a Purple Cobra, deep chat about the dark arts, hooker shit, and somewhere between an ear pull and a Koenig Special Jones goes on a Pro Dark Arts rant.

    Half cocked opinions based on almost nothing, cold beer and more scrum talk than actual scrums. It's rugby the way you love it. Welcome to the Wrong Side of the Ruck, we think you'll like it here.

  • WSotR S1E26: Lee the Stripper, Honry the Frenchman and an Emu War (Otago vs. Southland NPC 2026)
    2026/08/10

    Pull up a cozy bit of the couch because it's Stag Day in Invercargill, and the boys are gearing up for the road to Baltimore and South Africa vs. New Zealand. We've got a few beers in hand and are watching NPC rugby's oldest grudge match: Otago vs. Southland.

    As always, we talk about mostly anything but the match. There's Lee the Stripper, Honry the French Man, and way too much time spent on Saranac and the Hyena Toddlers. Just before we get too deep into scrums, Jones and Tocco compare the NPC to the SEC and try to get a thumb on where this level of rugby sits next to sports in the US.

    Somewhere in there, there's a flanker try, huge hits, and a full-blown Emu War. Welcome to rugby the way you've always loved it; on the Wrong Side of the Ruck. Grab a beer and join us. We think you'll like it here.

  • WSotR B-Sides E5: Did I Meet You Last Night? (CanAm Premier Finals, 2026)
    2026/08/03

    Jones ditches the couch this week to actually play, leaving Tocco alone behind the mic of a potato for a solo call of the Can-Am Rugby Premier Finals between White Plains and your Eastside Hyenas.

    As Tocco weaves commentary through the lens of a handful of van beers Dribbles nearly throws hands, a squad of 17 year olds humiliate grown men, Negronis finally get the personality arc they deserve and we learn about Tocco's allergies to cats from a Julia Roberts looking woman he barged in on the night before.

    It's rugby how you've always loved it; cold beer in hand and confidently incorrect. Welcome to Wrong Side of the Ruck. We think you'll like it here.

  • WSotR S1E25: Lot Lizards, the Dark Arts and Fingering the Honesty Era (Italy vs. Australia Nations Championship 2026)
    2026/07/29

    The couch saw a lot of action this week as the Lot Lizards wouldn't leave Jones alone as we sat down to watch the Italians take on Australia in Perth for round three of the Nations Championships.

    Somewhere between teh dark arts and Magnum Itai Perth handed us scrum debates, hat tricks and Jones ranting about languages he can't speak. Tocco went full Italian in the sheeds and we find ourselves in the Circle of Honestly.

    Grab yourself a cold beer and settle in for what will likely be a confidently incorrect telling of what happened in Perth. It's rugby the way you've always loved it. Welcome to Wrong Side of the Ruck. We think you'll like it here.

  • WSotR S1E24: Turkish Ketamine, a Pity Try and Fijian Front Row Things (Wales vs. Argentina, Nations Championship )
    2026/07/21

    We released the Taco, formally, somewhere between Jones' internet going out for the fourth time and a Trojan sponsorship request that got weirdly specific. Meanwhile, Wales and Argentina went at it down in San Juan and Wales didn't completely disappoint Jones. We talked scrums, ketamine, hair plugs from Turkey and way too many Hooker things to count here.

    Come peek behind the Aluminum Curtain and grab a bit of the couch while we get through this one. We may be confidently incorrect, but at least the beer is cold here. Come enjoy rugby the way you've always loved it, on the Wrong Side.

    We think you'll like it here.

  • WSotR S1E23: Jaliballs, Bad Mullets and some French Penetration (Nations Championship - NZ vs. France)
    2026/07/13

    The couch pulled double duty tonight as we speed out from Denver and head down to Christchurch for the kickoff of the Nations Championship. New Zealand vs. France. It may have been our second recording that night but we're still not sure what the hell we're doing here. But there was rugby. We saw a new Tater enter the chat, Tocco is thinking about making stomping great again and Jalibert takes a dive that we cannot forgive.

    Bad mullets, worse Ref's and half cocked opinions based on almost nothing. It's rugby the way it was meant to be. So grab a beer, pull up some couch and welcome to the Wrong Side of the Ruck.

    We think you'll like it here.
