Neil Treacy is joined by Bernard Jackman and Jonny Holland on this week's RTÉ Rugby podcast to discuss the major news of the week in Irish rugby.
The panel looks ahead to the first big Interpro of the season in the BKT United Rugby Championship, as Leinster host Munster at Croke Park on Saturday evening.
We break down wins for both sides at the weekend, and look at where Munster need to get things right if they're to end their four-game losing run in this fixture.
The podcast also covers the highly anticipated first head-to-head meeting of Sam Prendergast and Jack Crowley (28:50), and ask how much stock Ireland head coach Andy Farrell will be placing on it.
Bernard and Jonny discuss how Ulster clicked in their impressive 28-7 win against the Bulls (38:45), and debate whether or not Jacob Stockdale could make a claim for the Ireland 15 jersey this November.
And we also break down where things went wrong for Connacht as they fell to a disappointing 14-8 loss away to Cardiff (48:00).
