England versus Argentina always delivers chaos — whether it’s football or rugby.

England win 31–24 in Santiago del Estero, but the real drama came in a furious finish. Did Bautista Delguy score the late try? Why isn’t Henry Pollock starting — and did he take the goading of Argentina too far?

Felipe Contepomi then accused England of showing a “lack of respect” after hearing their dressing-room celebrations during his post-match press conference.

Was he right, or had England earned the right to celebrate?

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🇦🇷 ARGENTINA 24–31 ENGLAND

🌶️ One of the spiciest Tests of the year

❓ Delguy’s late effort: try or no try?

🔥 Pollock winding up the Pumas

🪑 Why isn’t Pollock starting?

👕 And what was going on with the kit?

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🇳🇿 NEW ZEALAND 40–21 IRELAND

How did Luke Jacobson’s shoulder-to-head contact on Josh van der Flier avoid being upgraded to red?

Dangerous head contact continues to produce wildly inconsistent outcomes.

If that isn’t upgraded, what exactly is the bunker there to upgrade?

Ireland also conceded 15 turnovers on a night when very little clicked.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 SCOTLAND 33–17 FIJI

Much squeakier than the scoreline suggests.

Fiji led 17–7 at half-time before Scotland’s bench changed the match and inspired 26 unanswered second-half points.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🇿🇦 SOUTH AFRICA 43–0 WALES

Another brutal demolition.

Four years ago, Wales travelled to South Africa, won a Test and nearly took the series. Now the Springboks are using the fixture to blood young players — and still winning comfortably.

South Africa have beaten Wales 116–0 across their last two meetings.

Are the Springboks already cruising towards the 2027 Rugby World Cup?

What goes into Building the perfect Bok and can Ryan tap into it for his offspring??

🇿🇦 SOUTH AFRICA 45–21 ENGLAND 🏴

England were battered at Ellis Park.

Yes, they fought back brilliantly after a brutal opening quarter. Yes, there were moments of genuine promise.

But this was also England’s fifth consecutive Test defeat and the eighth game in a row in which they have received at least one yellow card.

So we ask the uncomfortable question…

Are England beginning to accept mediocrity?

If Italy, Argentina, Wales, Fiji, Australia or Scotland produced that performance against South Africa, would we call them plucky? Brave? Gallant? Would we praise the fightback and talk about a young team taking positives?

Probably.

But what if it was New Zealand, France or Ireland?

Would they accept being comprehensively put away?

Steve Borthwick has a 56.5% win record across 46 Tests. At what point do “young England team”, “positives to take” and “building towards the World Cup” stop being enough?

Especially when the Springboks were without Siya Kolisi, Eben Etzebeth, Sacha Feinberg-Mngomezulu, Franco Mostert, Lood de Jager, RG Snyman, Kwagga Smith and Frans Malherbe.

A bad England performance?

Or a huge statement win from the Springboks?

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🇦🇷 ARGENTINA 38–47 SCOTLAND 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Scotland go to Córdoba and produce their best-ever result in Argentina.

Sione Tuipulotu leads from the front, Scotland find another gear and Gregor Townsend’s men start the Nations Championship with a massive away victory.

Is Tom Jordan the natural successor to Finn Russell? 

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🇳🇿 NEW ZEALAND 34–32 FRANCE 🇫🇷

A captivating nine-try thriller in Christchurch.

New Zealand strike.

France answer.

France strike.

New Zealand answer.

Brilliant test match rugby and a fabulous first win for the Dave Rennie era. Ryan absolutely stoked for his former coach! 

Plus, remember the name: Fehi Fineanganofo. 👀 but is he going to Newcastle Red Bulls? The boys debate players being tied to contracts 

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🇦🇺 AUSTRALIA 31–33 IRELAND 🇮🇪

An absolute HUMDINGER in Sydney.

Back and forth. Five tries apiece. Australia with a chance to win it at the death.

But Ireland — and Hugo Keenan in particular — find a way.

Ireland continue building serious depth while Australia provide even more evidence that…

THE WALLABIES ARE BACK.

Carter Gordon, Dylan Pietsch and a wildly entertaining Australian side give Ireland everything they can handle.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🇫🇯 FIJI 24–39 WALES 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

The brutal efficiency of the driving maul versus the elegance, chaos and outrageous natural ability of Fiji.

Neck and neck deep into the second half before Wales finally pull clear.

And Selestino Ravutaumada probably won’t want to watch that Josh Adams nutmeg too many times. 😭

George Hendy joins Maul or Nothing live from Ibiza after Northampton Saints’ 2026 PREM Rugby final win over Exeter Chiefs.

The matchwinner talks Saints celebrations, scoring the decisive tries, why this title feels different from two years ago, and the slightly chaotic aftermath of trying to serenade the Saints faithful on stage.

The boys also get stuck into the Henry Pollock Player of the Match debate, whether the stats really backed up the award, and why Northampton looked such worthy champions.

Elsewhere, Ryan recovers from the Dublin fiesta as the show breaks down Leinster’s 36-7 URC final win over the Bulls at Croke Park, Sam Prendergast’s performance, James Lowe’s fishy farewell, Joe McCarthy winding up Ryan, and whether another Bulls final collapse says anything about England vs South Africa.

Plus: Leo Cullen’s confirmed Leinster exit at the end of the 2026-27 season, Maro Itoje being rested, Jamie George captaining England, Noah Caluori’s call-up, Benhard Janse van Rensburg, and whether PREM Rugby moving play-offs to neutral venues from 2029-30 is genius or madness.

It is finals week on Maul or Nothing — and somehow Exeter Chiefs have smashed their way into the 2026 PREM Final.

After a ridiculous comeback against Bath, Rob Baxter’s Chiefs are back at Twickenham, Henry Slade is still absolutely ridiculous, the Exeter scrum is looking like it has snooker balls hidden in its socks, and Bath are left wondering how 41 phases, white-line fever and no Finn Russell magic ended their season.

Max Lahiff joins us after the Premiership awards and a stag do — which already sounds like a medical case study — while Ryan Wilson survives a full daddy day care weekend and returns to help break down one of the maddest play-off weekends in years.

We get stuck into Exeter’s 27-26 semi-final win over Bath, the Chiefs’ unreal play-off record, Stephen Varney’s impact, Santiago Carreras and the drop-goal debate, Bath’s final attacking passage, and whether Finn Russell’s injury ultimately cost them a place in the final.

Then it is Northampton Saints v Leicester Tigers: a proper Premiership classic. 76 points, 11 tries, Tom Litchfield’s hat-trick, George Furbank’s farewell fairytale, Henry Pollock carrying like a man possessed, Fin Smith pulling strings, and Rory Hutchinson still not getting nearly enough credit.

And then we look ahead to the big one: Northampton Saints v Exeter Chiefs in the 2026 PREM Final. Can anyone actually stop Saints? Or are Exeter about to turn the fairytale into a robbery?

Plus, we preview the URC Grand Final as Leinster face the Bulls again. The Bulls are in their fourth final in five years — but is this finally their time? And how much does the URC really matter to Leinster compared with the Champions Cup?

•⁠ ⁠Max thrown under the bus by Pat Lam

Leinster Tunnel Clash, Bulls Shock Glasgow & Is England Ignoring Henry Slade?

🔥 In the Premiership, Exeter Chiefs upset Saracens thanks to another masterclass from Henry Slade. Is England overlooking one of its most influential backs? We debate whether Slade should be back in serious contention for the England No.13 jersey.

Bristol’s season is over, but not before Max Lahiff signed off Ashton Gate in style.

The Bears may have missed the Premiership semi-finals, but they’ve still got the West Country bragging rights — and after that result which shall not be mentioned — they bounced back in exactly the right way.

Max joins us fresh from Friday night after scoring the winning try on his 200th Premiership appearance. Remarkably, it was his 10th Premiership try — matching Ryan Wilson’s career tally of 10 in 222 appearances. We break down the game, the celebrations, becoming an accidental social media sensation, launching Sam Underhill into low earth orbit, and whether we’ve lost a listener in the process.

We also look back on an unforgettable weekend in Bilbao — the rugby, the food, the friends and the chaos — before reacting to the internet’s latest attempts to describe Max:

•⁠ ⁠The Honey Badger born in the Cotswolds

•⁠ ⁠Like Hugh Grant and The Rock had a baby

•⁠ ⁠A shoo-in for a Bond villain

•⁠ ⁠The Brian Blessed of rugby

•⁠ ⁠And multiple comparisons to Lord Flashheart…

Then it’s URC quarter-final time.

Ryan relives Glasgow’s hard-fought victory over Connacht in a bruising contest, with Kyle Steyn once again delivering when it mattered most.

We also hear from Dan Lancaster after helping Glasgow beat a side coached by his father, Stuart Lancaster. What did he know about the old man? Did he have access to the calls? And what’s it really like trying to knock your dad out of the URC?

We break down all the quarter-final action:

•⁠ ⁠Bulls v Munster

•⁠ ⁠Stormers v Cardiff

•⁠ ⁠Leinster v Lions

Plus our semi-final predictions. Can either South African side stop what feels like an inevitable Glasgow v Leinster final?

We then turn our attention to the Premiership run-in:

•⁠ ⁠Saints secure a home semi-final

•⁠ ⁠Exeter damage Leicester’s top-two hopes while ending Bristol’s season

•⁠ ⁠Saracens keep rolling — is this the start of Sarries 2.0 or simply a strong finish?

•⁠ ⁠Newcastle’s end-of-season celebrations and whether they’re getting slightly carried away…

And with one round left, we preview two huge fixtures:

•⁠ ⁠Bath v Leicester — potentially a semi-final dress rehearsal

•⁠ ⁠Exeter v Saracens — effectively a win-and-you’re-in shootout

We came for the pintxos, we stayed for the utter demolition. The Maul Or Nothing boys are coming to you live from Bilbao, sun-soaked (and slightly hungover) to digest a Champions Cup final that saw Bordeaux turn San Mamés into their own personal playground.

Ryan catches up with the Bordeaux stars (and fans); including Le Petit Jason Statham; Maxime Lucu, The Wizard of Wellington (NZ) Senesi Rayasi and the European Player of the Year aka The Bordeaux Bullet; Louis Bielle-Biarrey.

And what about Leinster? Four finals lost in five years. If it was painful before, was this 41-19 rout downright catastrophic for Leinster?

Join us for Basque taste of how the day went down.

This week on Maul or Nothing, Max Lahiff relives the absolute carnage after Saints put Bristol through a woodchipper at Franklin’s Gardens. We ask the big questions:

👉 Is defending officially dead in the Premiership?

👉 Should the Prem introduce the Top 14-style “3 tries more” bonus point?

👉 Why are scores getting completely out of control?

👉 And did the referee REALLY stop the game to help Max find his tooth? 🦷😂

PLUS:

🔥 Leicester Tigers keep the home semi race alive

🔥 Saracens suddenly charging into the playoffs

🔥 Owen Farrell’s accidental hooker cameo

🔥 England squad reaction — Bath stars DROPPED

🔥 BVR’s first England call-up causes chaos

🔥 Glasgow finish TOP of the URC pile

🔥 Cardiff storm through 

🔥 The real story behind SRU frustrations for the final 

AND…

🏆 Who actually wins the Champions Cup from here?

This is a proper chaotic MON episode.

Was Saints v Bristol the most ridiculous Premiership game ever?
