Late Tackle: A Greek and a Scot walk into a bar
Watch as Harlequins flyhalf Demetri Catrakilis opens up about his comeback from a life threatening throat injury and The Rugby Pod’s Jim Hamilton brings a fresh look at England’s current state of affairs.
Catrakilis recently returned to action following a lengthy lay-off to recover from the injury and shares what his rehab entailed from the sixth minute.

Catrakilis is asked to compare the differences between the French Top 14, Super Rugby and the Premiership in the 13th minute.
Following on from the Bismarck du Plessis and Mohamed Haouas fist fight, Catrakilis lets the team on a car deal he had with Haouas, which led to him asking Fijian centre Nemani Nadolo to provide some backup in the 16th minute.
Anton explains to Morgan how the bonus point system works in the 20th minute.
The Six Nations gets the spotlight from the 21st minute as Hamilton provides a fresh voice to look into the current state of England’s form while also having a slight dig at Springbok Eben Etzebeth.

The weather was dreadful but the playing surface was great so there is no real excuse for such another poor standard of play from both sides. Dragons just the better team. But, what a shocking decision by the TMO not to award the Fifita try. This pretty much sums up Welsh rugby with poor teams and poor officials. The WRU have a lot of work to do and it needs to be done quickly to avoid rugby being lost to our future generations.
Go to commentsNo chance of Borthwick selecting any young talent. He announced his selection policy from the outset with naming a poor OF as Captain, retaining an equally poor Youngs and Vunipola brothers when there were many better EQP in the Premiership. SB revival of Leicester was based on SA muscle and a terrific Welsh flanker he has generally ignored young English talent.
