Fresh off the Irish showjumping team's brilliant victory at the League of Nations, Bernard Jackman joins Gavan Casey from Florida to discuss the provinces' fortunes in the URC and Antoine Dupont's return to action -- at out-half -- for Toulouse.

Berch reckons Connacht's defeat to the 14-man Lions was the worst result in Irish rugby this season, and he's starting to wonder whether some of Ulster's players understand the significance of wearing the province's jersey.

And with Connacht set to travel to Treviso without Bundee Aki and Finlay Bealham for a pivotal game with Benetton, the lads discuss whether the IRFU's approach to player management is fit for purpose or requires a rethink under David Humphreys

Murray and Gav are joined for the first time by former Leinster and Ireland hooker James Tracy, who gives his detailed thoughts on Ireland's Six Nations campaign, how their scrum has become a 'weapon', and how their lineout isn't the issue that many believe it to be.

The lads also chat about Ulster's signing of Werner Kok, the departure of Billy Burns for Munster, and how the northern province are shaping up for the rest of the season.

Plus, with the 20-minute red card looming larger, James and Murray give their thoughts on rugby's latest law-change proposals and their potential consequences, good and bad.
