About the episode

It’s a massive week as the lads react to the URC quarterfinals being locked in, Glasgow’s statement win in Belfast, Cardiff’s huge result over the Stormers, and Connacht emerging as dark horses. We look ahead to the Champions Cup final in Bilbao and whether Leinster can topple Bordeaux. We also ask whether rugby has a growing drug problem after major bans in Georgia and South Africa. We dive into South Africa’s club rugby future with the rumours that they may be dropping out of Champions Cup, the potential URC-Prem merger, Eddie Jones’s suspension, England’s new-look training squad, and the Premiership chaos after Saints put 94 points on Bristol.
