Neil Treacy is joined by Bernard Jackman and Gareth Steenson on the first RTÉ Rugby podcast of 2026, as we look back on wins for Ulster and Leinster in the New Year Interpros.
First up, we take a look at another impressive Ulster win, as they enjoyed an emphatic 28-3 win against Munster.
It continues a fine start to the season for Richie Murphy's side, who have undergone a complete rebuild in the last two seasons.
We also look at which Ulster players may have caught the eye of Ireland coach Andy Farrell as the Six Nations looms.
The podcast also discusses Munster's recent struggle for form, and how head coach Clayton McMillan looks set to make some ruthless calls as he begins to settle on his best team.
We break down an impressive Leinster performance as they hammered Connacht at Aviva Stadium, with the same old failings for Stuart Lancaster's side.
