The Way We HNC It: S3 E9

The Way We HNC It — Fri, 24 Jul 2020 22:46:56 GMT

It’s unscripted and uncontrolled, Bez gets derailed early and never really gets it back while trying to figure out who is the Queen of Country. In football news: Flagging New Year and Flagging Iron Man are both full, Carnegie Winter League is back and there was a wild weekend in Guernsey which sets up the middle part of the season very nicely. This one is short, sweet and silly. Come laugh with us.

The Way We HNC It S3 E17

The Way We HNC It — Thu, 15 Oct 2020 23:17:02 GMT

It’s finally here! Finally you are going to find out who the players have chosen as their No 1 in the conference for 2019. We also dive into the goings on around the UK Flag scene which include, but are not limited to: The UK Dukes have an exciting new partnership, Bez yelling “Forty Five,” an awful lot, friendly football is back the motivation mix straight fire and there are lots of amazing #PathToMarathon fundraisers going on. We also do the final 5 reveal. Come laugh with us and roll into the weekend with a smile. We appreciate every one of you. #TheWayWeHNCit

The Way We HNC It S5E14

The Way We HNC It — Thu, 28 Jul 2022 07:57:41 GMT

After a huge cross conference weekend the boys are back together and this time have done their homework.

Greg With The News found 3 stories all by himself, one of which is a discussion around the new All Region Series and how it can expand over the coming years.

We go through the Northern Premier results across all 4 venues which seemed to have some superb games which spelled doom for the handicappers and discuss the 1 point margins which could have huge ramifications come playoff time.

On the subject of playoffs, the guys have and EXCLUSIVE first look at the official British American Football Association standings and share what teams are in, and who has work to do along with some exciting clinching scenarios. More to come on that too!

Finally, we can tell you who plays who in the playoffs and promotion/relegation games if the season ended today.

Enjoy!

The Way We HNC It S5E12

The Way We HNC It — Wed, 13 Jul 2022 08:53:11 GMT

It's been about a month since our last show and an awful lot has gone down. We are in the middle of the World Games 2022 where some of the finest teams in the world are facing off for the right to be on an official live stream. Bez has a conspiracy theory that Greg does not immediately dismiss.

Closer to home there has been some British American Football Association drama that we take a flag view on, before returning domestically to give a rapid run down of what happened in Week 5.

Bez chats about his experience trialling the new refereeing course as well as how it impacted him when it came to make, "a fun call to work out," in one of last weekends games.

There's also the Guernsey report and much much more.
