    Bernard Jackman and Murray Kinsella join Gavan Casey to give their thoughts on Leinster's remarkable Pro14 success while also casting an eye towards this weekend's Champions Cup quarter-finals. The lads discuss the state of Irish provincial rugby outside of Leinster, encompassing talent development and thoughts on the long-term impact of Munster, Ulster and Connacht's squads potentially consisting of a high percentage of Leinster academy products. Murray and Bernard also give their thoughts on the breakdown in its current guise, and where it might be improved.

  • Sweet, sweet interpro analysis, digesting RG's injury, and Bernard's left-field lockdown theory
    Bernard Jackman and Murray Kinsella join Gavan Casey to dissect a spectacular return for Irish rugby, with in-depth analysis of Leinster, Munster, Connacht and Ulster's performances over the weekend. Also discussed were RG Snyman's horror injury and how involved he may be with Munster's first team during rehab, new gigs for a couple of Connacht old boys, and Bernard's theory as to why Ulster may be two or three weeks behind the other provinces at a crucial stage of the season.

  • Predicting Ireland's team for the 2023 RWC, plus the lowdown on Connacht's new recruits
    Bernard Jackman and Murray Kinsella join Gavan Casey for a Rugby Weekly season finale before a brief summer break. With the lads in full-on holiday mode, they decide to hinge the episode on a suggestion regularly made to Murray: predicting the Ireland team that will line out at the 2023 Rugby World Cup. There are plenty of differences in opinion -- Gavan gets especially irate at Murray's picks for the wing -- but they still manage to pick two exciting-looking teams sprinkled with current up-and-comers. Also discussed in the episode were Thursday's European final location developments and Connacht's signings of Abraham Papali'i and Ben O'Donnell.
