August 28, 2023 Samoa/squad-announcement takeaways, below-par Fiji beat England, and Berch's fearless prediction
Back home from Bayonne, Murray Kinsella joins Bernard Jackman and Gavan Casey to assess a night vaguely reminiscent of Italy at Ravenhill in 2007, but one which should be viewed entirely differently.Murray, Berch and Gav dissect Ireland's performance against Samoa, Andy Farrell's 18-15 split, and the extent to which Cian Healy's loss will hamper Ireland's chances in France.

Berch unabashedly explains why Ireland will win the World Cup and, when Gavan's heart stops racing minutes later, he invites the former Ireland hooker to expand on his distinctly un-Irish proclamation.

The lads explain how Fiji have managed to become semi-final contenders in four fewer games than Steve Borthwick has coached England, plus there's South Africa-New Zealand and France-Australia analysis, with a little more love for Antoine Dupont along the way.
