Green & Gold Rugby
Podcast channel for THE Aussie Rugby Website: Green and Gold Rugby. We produce three podcasts - the Green and Gold Rugby Show, the Rugby Report Card and The Dropped Kick-Off. The Report Card takes no prisoners as they analyse the weekend's games, while the G&GR Show breaks down the burning questions in Australian rugby. The Dropped Kick-Off sits down with folks in the know, covering left-field and relevant topics around the game in Australia.
