Kooks and Thala wrap up the weekend's European Rugby Champions Cup and Challenge Cup quarterfinals, which saw losses to the 3 remaining South African teams.

We start with the Sharks 54-20 loss at Toulouse. While Curwin Bosch, Skhumbuzo Notshe and Grant Williams had impressive performances, the Sharks defensive issues were evident. Kooks gives his take about the French TV producer situation, Emmanuel Meafou and the magic of Dupont, Ntamack and Ramos.

We then move to the Stormers looking flat in the 42-17 loss at Exeter. We discuss if the Stormers miss Deon Fourie, Exeter's Last Dance and what can be done to fix South Africa's traveling issues. We then wrap up the Champions Cup looking at Garry Ringrose leading Leinster thrashing Leicester and Levani Botia turning into Fijian David Pocock in La Rochelle outclassing Saracens.

We move to look at Lions losing to Glasgow 31-21 on the back of impressive Huwipulotu performances and Kyle Steyn jumping at the front of the lineout. We then look at what chances Scarlets, Toulon  and Benetton have in the Challenge Cup semifinals.

We then look at URC Rounds 17 and 18 to discuss what the South African teams need to do to qualify for the URC quarterfinals and Leinster's Rhys Ruddock All Stars featuring Teddy Pendergrass.

Our First Phase question was looking at rugby's coach killers. Our rugby shoutouts include looking at the impressive Chiefs in Super Rugby Pacific and the underdog Blue Bulls in the Currie Cup.
