Monumentally difficult to moderate this show when Marler is on the show!! Sooo funny.

[@chriscullen8170]

Watch the grin on Tindall...he loves how difficult marler is!

[@ac2244]

How Mr Payne manages to hold onto the reins when Marler is in I’ll never know!

[@TommyMb-uj1iz]

Joe on “would I lie to you” would be dynamite. Nearly on par with Mortimer

[@fredwilkins4195]

so accurate on all fronts

[@brann1978]

Tommy Mb1990 that is a great shout. Would love to see it. 😂

[@sekanssekans7059]

this is a very sound call.

Make this happen!

That fish impression 🤣🤣🤣

[@squishypotatoo5304]

Lads, lads the chemistry betwen marler and alex needs sprucing up eh, go on a fishing trip with a bag of crisps, marler's biltong and a crate of guiness :)

[@JohnSmith-vy4lh]

Marler is embarrassingly useless .

[@jcd2403]

Jesus, Alex is a saint for putting up with Marler's roadblocks.

[@kingsleyshacklebolt6235]

I felt for Alex at times!

[@brianking6486]

JC D completely agree Marler spoiled the whole show by being a complete arsehole again on the show.

[@timh.7283]

I’m afraid I have to agree, too. Marler does seem to be a marmite figure and I would rather eat newts. Twice is enough for me.

[@ofaz1204]

Thought marler was acting a nob

[@kenrehill8775]

Yep, too sweary. I like a bit of language but Mahler goes too far., and doesn’t balance it up with amusing anecdotes. Too angry and prickly.

[@jonathankarling1239]

So many awkward pauses to figure out what marler is on about hahah

[@Richiegw1]

Another top show lads. I love Marler's style and he's gone up in my estimation with his love for biltong!

[@fred999ist]

Joe Marler should have his own show. Just brilliant!!

[@caiotefu9856]

SUPER ENJOYABLE FROM START TO FINISH... COULD'VE GONE ON LONGER EVEN! Thanks guy's!

[@callum1131]

The pure carnage Joe brings every time he's on is hilarious 😂

[@schnozz87]

Marler's Meat - Do You Want Some Meat Or Not? Seriously that's the perfect slogan. It's a bit like Nibble Nobby's Nuts.

[@WarzoneMorloc]

Marler is my new favourite person

[@melofmac6896]

Excellent show, three great minds meet lol.

[@draiguk]

11 mins in and Marler is already a legend hahahha

[@andywalker9079]

Alex is such an outstanding host

[@spencerpjohnson]

Great show. Very funny and entertaining.

[@ryandent884]

Marler at the end... “cya” 😂😂😂

[@TheBoarder360]

The first ten minutes... Alex Payne-ful.. great to have Joe back 👍🏼

[@purenrg4life]

I’m 7mins in and have laughed out loud on the bus at least 6 times.. the cringe is hilarious.. nice work!

[@kennard_s9247]

Ben Blair was super underated, off the tee was incredible, loved watching him at the arms park

[@kenrehill8775]

Of course Mahler was at the Marcel Michelin! He was shouting at the staff to let him get in the pitch, very funny.

[@brann1978]

Joe Marley is a funny lad. Glad to see him back on again 😂

[@michaelshanahan4042]

Love joe and well said Mike 😊

[@somenobody8599]

Still waiting for that Yewtree XV

hey guys , big fan of the show, perfect pour idea !!! how about dodgy haircut 15 ?? btw im an Exeter chiefs fan , plenty of material !!

[@edgreen489]

Ah mate joe genuinely fucking hit me with what he said, absolutely nailed it, bear in mind I am only like 20 mins in so he still could fuck up haha

[@paddyanglais91]

Chemistry was building between Tinds and Marler as the show went on

[@10gimp39]

like your comment on empty ground for Sarries game I tried to buy tickets from Ricoh Ticket Office Saturday morning to be told non left then could not believe the amount of empty seats when watching on TV

[@riordanhanan3203]

Another good episode lads, I like all three of you but Jesus this did feel like hard work at times... felt like Joe and Alex were just at loggerheads at times and Mike was the neutral chaperone in the middle trying to continue the fluidity of it.... Anyway, I apologise as I am not one to be negative, love the show, loved every episode so far and up the House of Rugby!

[@lliamq12]

Agreed - Alex doesn't handle Joe's wind up tactics so well...

[@riordanhanan3203]

Lliam Quarm And I don’t think Marler makes it particularly easy to keep things moving forward... he only wanted him to say a quick message to his 9 year old for example, I don’t see the need to debate that when it takes 5 seconds to do. Nonetheless, again, nothing against them, everyone is different and they’re just being themselves. Just feel that most people would put a little more into making the show flow through, considering it’s a podcast/ KZbin etc etc

[@rohancook8588]

Perfect pour, england players who haven't necessarily gotten their dues for what they bring to the team/underrated, i.e Ford, Care, Kruis...

Alex had a decent 15! Then Marler! Good fun, nice to hear some Welsh names thrown about, eventually lol!

[@JasonConlan75]

Picked 2 class players aswell

[@hayes4292]

Enjoyed marler on the first pod. This was a whole lot of noise at times. Could tell tins was getting fed up

[@taylorwilson6655]

Really? I thought tins was loving marler getting undermining Alex's podcast personally

[@stevenkeane572]

Joe is top and a excellent rugby player

[@maxwellhaines6279]

Alex is actually hilarious

Marler's number 15, haha!

What is marler drinking as it could either be that new Guinness that looks like water or it could just be water.

No mention of Sale for 4th place??

Uploaded 10 minutes ago, how does this already have a dislike? The show is over an hour! Pathetic.

We agree Calum.

[@ollieread7758]

My brother played 6-a-side against marler once, marler slapped his back and was left with his handprint for a day

[@daikayll1897]

Haaa, funny that.

[@Steve-oe2en]

Tinds looking tiny next to marler!!!!

[@barrelwolf]

I disagree with folau's comments and I am not religious but all the crap that is being sent his way is so overboard. He said a bunch of people are going to hell when they die... He didn't say they should die, he didnt go out of his way to single out a person he just preached what he believes due to his church beleifs. Saying he shouldnt talk about his beleifs because people have chosen to idolise him is a loud of bullshit! I would find it very interesting how many of the people who have taken offense against both folau and Billy (and others) have knowingly supported people, companies and countries who support these feeling and far worse ones. Just another bunch of people jumping on board attacking a man who more than likely just needs a guiding hand on how to portray himself online. Surprising how many people spout thst anger and show themselves to be bigots and hypocrites.

[@scottabraham1396]

someone should have called marler on buffalo

[@danielnorrie9978]

Another brilliant episode. I think hask should be let go and marler drafted in

[@alastairmurray6716]

Daniel Norrie he’s on rugby pod with Goodey quite regularly

[@abhouston1]

Why is Joe Marker on this? He should in a forrest somewhere hunting down predators.

Was Joe Marker on. Must of missed him!

[@ciaranmeaney369]

get Brian O'Driscoll on!

[@amelierose1243]

Joe Marler. Legend.

[@TheSideburno]

Eccentric reps are negative reps, Joe is right! Still brilliant though haha

[@justinmaddock9783]

This is a miles times better than Will Greenwoods pod cast on Sky which is utter bollocks. Mind you it took them 25 minutes before they wanted to talk rugby.

[@woodyuk1983]

Need to have marler on more often.... what absence of humour and top lad

[@kenrehill8775]

Bundee Aki liked the famous Folau tweet, and when asked for an opinion on that, total silence.

[@odhranharte4802]

Bundee already cleared that up. He "liked" it without reading it properly & immediately removed it when he realised what it was. This witch hunt is getting out of hand, people scanning comments from 10yrs ago trying to ruin someone's career today. Context & intent is everything so maybe put down your pitchforks & torches & read the man's response before lynching him publicly. Why are people trying to destroy careers & lives? Its just jealousy & bitterness from unhappy people.

[@kenrehill8775]

@@odhranharte4802 so he says, but we only have his word for it, and no one's word counts for anything any more. People are trying to destroy other people's lives and careers, because they can. People had no right to any power, now have it via the internet and social media. Now with a few well chosen words, they can destroy anyone, anytime. They think it's fun and there's recourse against them. Welcome to world you all wanted.

[@odhranharte4802]

@@kenrehill8775 it's not the world I wanted Ken, we seem to take people at their word when they say something shitty but when they say something positive or to clarify what they meant we reject it because it doesn't feed that little hate ball growing inside. They just always assume the negative to pull people down to their level. Why do we want or expect everyone to be perfect when we know we are not ourselves, it's jealously because they have a life we want but can't have. It's bullshit to say if you work hard you can achieve anything. No matter how hard I trained or practiced I could never have been Jonah Lomu. I'm Irish 5'10, 12 stone. No amount of dedication will make me a pacific islander, 6'5, 19 stone & I'm ok with that, he was still a hero of mine. Anyway from what you said I think we pretty much agree, I come here for rugby but this crap is all everyone seems to talk about at the moment, I'm done. All the best Ken

On the Israel falou story, if someone is offended by something you said/believe on social media then why don’t said person just stop following him. 🤷‍♂️

[@boiledegg6788]

Year old comment, sorry... But on the Folau thing, the issue was about him being in a position to influence many many youngsters, some of whom might be gay. The issue I have personally, is that if Folau is allowed to believe what he believes, but has to keep it quiet, then it seems a bit hypocritical if Pocock can be an LGBT ambassador of sorts and very publicly so.... V complicated topic.

[@perennialtourist2335]

'gay hater'. No he's not. Nothing Folau posted was remotely motivated by or expressive of hate.

[@owyn4799]

Just telling gays to go to hell cos he's such a nice guy yeah?

[@perennialtourist2335]

Actually the complete opposite - warning them about it so that they can avoid it. People don't seem to see the difference between someone saying: 'careful, you're about to fall off a cliff' and 'I hope you fall off a cliff and smash your brains out'.

[@gus-qj2mp]

Marler is a flog of a human

[@JohnSmith-ep2hh]

Eccentric- (of a person or their behaviour) unconventional and slightly strange. or Eccentric (Negative) Contractions: During these contractions, the muscles lengthen while producing force-usually by returning from a shortened (concentric) position to a resting position. = Marler correct.

[@vagalN]

Had to repeat this- as this where the battle lines are being drawn. The Islanders will leave Union and go to league- or other sorts. The homosexuals can run Union if they want to.... It is just so one sided and hypocritical how these guys rant on. Keep your bloody game then Marler you tough guy!
