RTÉ Rugby podcast: URC whitewash for the provinces plus exclusive Linda Djougang interview

Neil Treacy is joined by Bernard Jackman and Jonny Holland to discuss the week's big news in Irish rugby.

We look back on Sunday's Energia All-Ireland League final, where Jonny's Cork Constitution side were edged out by Clontarf 22-21 in a gripping Aviva Stadium decider.

The panel then turn their attention to a chastening weekend for the Irish provinces in the BKT URC (12:55), with all four sides losing a regular season game on the same weekend for the first time since 2015.

Later, we look ahead to Leinster's Investec Champions Cup semi-final against Northampton Saints on Saturday (43:21).

And Neil also sits down at the Aviva to chat to Ireland prop Linda Djougang (53:05), who looks back on the recent Guinness Women's Six Nations campaign, and discusses her journey through rugby, as well as Ireland's World Cup ambitions.
