Description

The wonderful Paul Williams (no, not the Samoa fullback, the referee, the France lock with a similar name or even former England fly-half Peter Williams) makes his podcast debut as we dissect one of the best Rugby World Cup matches ever, and the best game of 1987.

Thanks also to Tom Rosenthal for our theme music.This is a long episode - if you'd like to split it in two, consider listening to/from around 1:07:13!
