About the episode
This week’s episode is packed after a seismic weekend in the Champions Cup. Jim’s got some apologies to make as the Northampton Saints pulled off the unthinkable in Dublin, knocking out Leinster in their own backyard. We have Bigs on to break down exactly how his former club did it, where Leinster got it wrong, and what it means for the upcoming Lions squad announcement. Plus, we’ve got all the fallout from Jordie Barrett’s bench role, Caelan Doris injury whispers, Fin Smith and Pollock’s meteoric rise, and some listener questions, including who from Lions history we’d bring back for 2025 and whether 100 Jim Hamiltons could actually take down a gorilla. We also dive into Bath’s win over Edinburgh to reach their first European final in more than a decade, Bordeaux’s breakout moment as they dismantled Toulouse, and how the final might play out against Saints.
