On Friday night, Ireland women worked past the USA to finish second in their WXV1 group. With next year’s Six Nations and World Cup to come, Scott Bemand’s side have taken a significant step forward.
On Saturday, over 80,000 people travelled to Croke Park to take in Leinster’s win over Munster, before Ulster beat Connacht in another thrilling intepro clash.
Gordon D’Arcy and John O’Sullivan join Nathan Johns to pick through the main talking points of the weekend’s action on today’s Counter Ruck podcast. Is the international pecking order at scrumhalf being threatened? What to make of the mess at scrum time? Will Ireland have any hookers left standing for November?
