Join Johnny Vaughan and Gavin "The Woodman" Woods for an alternative build-up to the weekend's sport, plus a look at off-the-ball news, quirky stories and, more often than not, bizarre impressions of Rugby League fans. The boys celebrate sporting superstars, interview athletes and most importantly shine a spotlight on grass roots warriors plying their trade on hungover sundays. Tune in to Radio X at 11am on Saturdays to hear the show - Radio X is available across the UK on digital radio, 104.9 FM in London, 97.7 FM in Manchester, on your mobile or via www.radiox.co.uk

Episode 507 - The World Cup Wildcard Weekend Special
2026/03/28
It's a World Cup Wildcard Weekend Special which features a very limited amount of World Cup content, unfortunately.
What it does have though, is another of TJ’s Terrifically Topical Kickabout Top 10s. However, Gav's usual opponent, Toby Tarrant, was ruled out of this week's encounter after picking up a knock in training, so there was a new opponent for The Woodman to contend with...!
