PODSLAM 79 – with IRB CEO Brett Gosper

Matt Rowley September 26, 2012 19

Me, Steve and Hugh get together to wang on about the latest Quade Cooper issue and even actually talk some Rugby. I then interview Aussie Rugby Troubador and now IRB CEO Brett Gosper.

(And yes, the announcement that Beale would be playing 10 on the weekend came out just after the podcast!)

  Tried to clean it up for this one – best behaviour and all that

    Very disappointing. Are you trying to get a slot on Seppo radio?

      That’s probably my fault, sorry about that.

    Don’t you ever do that again. Bad GAGR. BAD.

    Fair play with the Beeps given the head of the IRB was on. But business as usual next week hope.

He comes across as a heaps good bloke. Relaxed bloke, good he hit up with a podslam. He is really easy going and open, he will be good for the IRB and rugby,. A modern bloke, he will be good and wants to connect with fans and rugby public. Good interview.

I disagree GAGR (Matt) re the Argentina game.

I did feel like we would get up eventually.

The were playing pretty good and bombed 2 tries. It felt like they’d get there

You shut your mouth hahahaha
You can’t buy spirit

Great interview!
Good to have both an aussie and an adman in the role. Someone who get’s it’s a competing product that needs to grow the market.
Seemed like a good bloke too.

Gave good insight into an otherwise pretty closed organisation. Nice work.

Gagger, at least you haven’t lost your Aussie accent….

In all seriousness, that was a good interview. Great to hear that he Mr Gosper has a down to earth view of the code and where it needs to head for the future.

Even though he has lost his Aussie accent he hasn’t lost that self deprecating sense of humour.
