Show Notes
The Men's Club season is about to kick off, over the next 4 podcasts we will talk through each province what we want to see improve where we think they will finish and the general vibes for the season
We begin as we always begin with Connacht, A challenging European pool, and higher expectations in the URC can they push on????
More from The 2nd Row
We are back in URC action before the internationals head to Irish camp. Can Connacht improve their discipline and put Zebre to the sword, what can Uster get out of their trip to the Bulls, will Leinster get revenge over Munster for last years Croke Park defeat? will anyone lay down a marker in case the Irish Mens squad needs fresh blood over the Autumn. and what should we expect as the Irish Women take on South Africa in the WXV
Connacht victorious on one of those great European nights, Leinster start slow but ease to a TBP win in Clermont, Munster make hard work of an unorganised Racing 92 on an emotional night for the province, and Ulster get the job done in Parma in a no glory game.
A bit later than normal but the URC rd 3 review is up. Connacht ill discipline and lack of clinical finish rob them of opportunity, Munster and Ulster play a game of 2 halves leaving Ulster still winless this season, and Leinster make easy work of Cardiff but lose shape as the game went on
Its the 3rd round of the URC the internationals are back! Connacht are in Scotstoun a place that isn't a happy hunting ground for many, its the 1st Interpro of the season, and Leinster return to the RDS
Connacht win it near the death with a gutsy display away in Benetton, Ulster get more than most in Scotstoun but should've got more, Munster beat the Bulls but O'Shea is the real story, and Leinster have scrum issues but leave South Africa with more points than last year.
