Neil Treacy is joined by Bernard Jackman and Mick Kearney to recap another busy week in the BKT United Rugby Championship, and look ahead to Saturday's Investec Champions Cup semi-final between Leinster and Northampton Saints.
The panel examine Leinster's recent defeats in the URC down in South Africa, and whether they've taken too big a gamble with their squad selection ahead of the visit of Northampton (1:30).
We look at where Northampton could cause Leinster difficulty (10:00), as well as looking at the overall occasion of a sold out rugby game at Croke Park (14:15).
The podcast reviews Munster's perfect two weeks in South Africa (20:00), and ask whether Graham Rowntree's side can kick on and challenge for back to back titles.
We also look at Connacht's win over Dragons (29:18) the retirement of Tiernan O'Halloran, Ulster's important win over Benetton (35:00), as well as Cork Con's AIL final triumph over Terenure (40:15).
Later in the pod, Alison Miller joins Neil to look back on Ireland's 15-12 win over Scotland (42:35), to seal a third place finish in the Guinness Women's Six Nations.

John Cooney has played really well over the last two games. He puts it a lot of it down to Richie Murphy convincing him to go back to being himself and to follow his instincts more. I hope Murphy gets the job.

We should have played the full first team against the Lions. Now we have a team that have played no rugby in 3 weeks and people are calling for Ringrose and O'Brien to come straight into the starting team. That's a stupid decision if that's what happens. If Ringrose starts and the team gas out after 60 minutes we are done for. Northampton are battle hardened and will come at us strong in that final 20. I think we have already shot ourselves in the foot before the game has even begun.

I bet the kickers for both sides have a hard time in Croker with penalties. ROG was never fond of kicking there.

Leinster players won’t have played a game in 3 weeks when they tackle Northampton! By the time they get into there stride the game could be as good as over

Give credit to the coaches who work with the players every day. They should know better than you, me and the other armchair experts. Remember Leinster only lost the last two finals by a combined 5 points in the last few minutes. They weren't found out by anyone.
