@Machpants I get a bit bored of them at times. Spot some interesting stuff but then there is a bit of blah at times too.
Reunion was great.
For sure, but better than matey mate mate that we get atm. As annoying as JK can be, at last he's not afraid to be controversial - outside of that is very vanilla

No, actually, it's not all.
The Breakdown is ok, for what I assume it is trying to achieve. A bit too yoof for my liking, and definitely too muck talk / banter not enough video.
ReUnion was excellent. I miss it.
I looked it up, and I started a thread similar to this 3 years ago.
But ....... I still miss it. It was better.
I did start missing it after last night's show. The way they were kissing up to Hamish McLennan and assuming that whatever he was saying was 100% truthful was pretty nauseating.

Not at all. I'm glad Tony Johnston and his bum chin have been put out to pasture.
Target audience.
They should get Mex and Ken ‘Second man play’ Laban to host a show. It would be unbeatable.

Never watched ReUnion. I like the breakdown, I like JK, he's a great dude and though he's a one eyed Jafa, as someone said above, he isn't afraid to he controversial. I like Bernadine Oliver-Kerby as well, probably coz she's diehard Chiefs Mana. No issues for me but like I said I can't compare to ReUnion.

Awful analysis, incorrect conclusions, zero insight
Wrong about pretty much everything -
@Yeetyaah the problem with JK is that he appears to have little to no clue or depth to his analysis. Amazing human being, but goddamn I don't want him anywhere near a rugby team coaching position. How he got and kept the Blues coaching job I have no idea.

@nzzp James Parsons is someone I reckon should be looking at that side of things once he finally hangs up his boots, never rated him as a player, but hearing him speak seems to be pretty onto it with his analysis, not to mentioned seems a top bloke too!

absolutely agree. Great human being, tries his guts out, a leader, but just a bit small for top level rugby it appears.

@taniwharugby I like what James Parsons has to say, too. Corey Flynn is similar; I like his radio commentary.
I find Sir JK as annoying as hell. Always yelling over the others; spewing a lot of nonsense. And as some others said, too much fanboying on the Breakdown (not only SJK) and too little analysis.
I like their live interviews more, but like @akan004 said, they assumed too much that what McLennon said was 100% true and that's typical for the programme. Still, it's for the interviews that I still watch the Breakdown.
1014 Rugby came closest to what I want to see. If they would combine that with a news section, it would be a great programme.
Instead of Re:union, I just watch the match highlights.
