Hello ! And welcome to a brand new Off The Ball podcast - Word On The Street!
Every week, Susanna, Eve & Rachel take a major sporting event or topic and head to the streets to find out what you, the public, think.
As David Nucifora breaks his silence on the IRFU cutting the men's 7s programme... Susanna, Eve, and Rachel felt they could stay quiet no longer!! (Same effect really). From the lack of transparency and World Rugby's share of the blame, to the Women's team being the next victim, we work through how the public feel about the IRFU's decision.
Have a topic in mind? Send us a DM on @OffTheBall on all our social platforms.
