This is The Knock On, KCLR, and Scoreline.ie's weekly rugby podcast.

In this episode, Stephen Byrne is joined by Tom Crotty from Carlow Rugby Club, James Blanchfield from Kilkenny RFC, and Johnny Tobin from Tullow RFC.

The lads discuss lots including….

• Carlow welcomes Dundalk to Oak Park in the Leinster League, we preview the big clash.
• Tullow host Longford in the Leinster League, a big day planned at the club, we look ahead to the clash.
• We chat about Ireland A v All Blacks XV and the team named for that and why the "A" sides are a good thing.
• We preview Ireland v South Africa in the Autumn Series, the team selection and more.
• With all the pressure facing English and Welsh clubs, we talk about why the IRFU system works
