About this episode
In Episode 3 of What The Ruck, Irish rugby legend Brent Pope joins Dave Kilcoyne and Luke Delaney for an unfiltered trip down memory lane. From the golden era of RTÉ punditry to the modern heartbreak of World Cup exits, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.
Brent opens up about his iconic (and often explosive) on-screen partnership with George Hook, revealing the truth behind their clashes and the friendship that underpinned the madness. The lads also debate the greatest foreign imports to ever grace the Irish provinces—who takes the top spot: Isa Nacewa, Doug Howlett, or Ruan Pienaar?
Plus, Dave Kilcoyne reflects on the 2023 Rugby World Cup quarter-final defeat to the All Blacks.
