Championship Clubs Podcast | Season 5 | Episode 8 | New Year, Same Champ
We're back for more in 2025 and it's another enthralling round of Championship Rugby to kickstart the New Year with four sides in contention to end the day in second place.
Lots to talk about for Ross & Charlie including the fantastic news that Ellis Mee, who starred for Nottingham last season, has been called up by Wales for the upcoming Six Nations Championship.
The usual preview / review also takes centre stage plus the latest from up high at the Rugby Football Union.
Final episode of 2024! And it's a huge bumper edition to round off the year as Ross and Charlie hear from Coventry Head Coach, Alex Rae then Nottingham Chairman, Alistair Bow.
So much has happened in the game recently, including the RFU pay-row, potential votes of no confidence with intense calls for change at the top of the game.
But don't let that distract you too much from what is a massive week of Championship action, including first vs second as reigning Champions Ealing Trailfinders head to Butts Park Arena.
Strap yourselves in, this week's episode covers each and every detail of the last few weeks.
