Flights Booked?! Lions watch + Leinster lose at Llanelli
This week the boys run the rule over the business end of the Premiership and URC as teams vie for the top 4 and top 8 respectively....We hear from Max after Bristol's hopes are dented with defeat at Northampton. While commentators are all saying Alex Mitchell better pack his bags for Australia... but what to the boys think?They also pick over the embers of Exeter's capitulation at Gloucester and the subsequent fallout with coaches fired and owners reading the riot acts....But has Tomos Williams's outstanding performance earned him a ticket down under?Leicester roar to victory over a Quins side that seem to have suffered a case of the yips while the mighty Sale slay Saracens... Another commanding performance from George Ford.... why is he not in the mix or in the conversation for Lions recognition and should he be?Meanwhile in the URC, the unstoppbale juggernaut Leinster losing to the Scarlets... how much of a shock is that (it was their second team) and does Ryan Wilson finally, begrudgingly, admit that they haven't peaked too soon and they wont care a jot about this loss?And what about the Warriors losing at home to the Bulls? The boys wax lyrical about the man mountain that is Jan-Hendrik Wessels....We then turn out attentions to the Champions Cup semi finals..... who do we think will get a chance to go for gold in Cardiff on the 24th May?Head over to www.debra.org.uk to support this incredible charity!As always, like subscribe and enjoy!!!

Bordeaux's Pete Samu + the Unstoppable Leinster Juggernaut
The boys are delighted to welcome Bordeaux and Wallaby back rower Pete Samu to take us through a gripping encounter with Munster.We hear all about how the match ebbed and flowed and what it's really like playing and training with Damian Penaud and Louis Bielle-Biarrey...Also Maxime Lucu needs to lean into his Jason Statham more often!We hear about life in Bordeaux, the scars from last years devastating loss to Toulouse in the Top 14 final and how theyre approaching the semi final against their archrivals!Meanwhile Ryan relives the horror show that was Glasgow's mauling at the hands of an unstoppable Leinster...Since Bath led 21-19 at half-time in round four of the competition, Leinster have not conceded a solitary point; 200 minutes played, 142 points for, none against. Who on earth can halt their march to the Champions Cup. Also Jordie Barratt is a rugby cheat code....But at least Ryan was able to ask Leo Cullen if Leinster have peaked too early!We also break down a riveting contest between Toulon and Toulouse while the Saints go marching on!Friend of the show Fin Smith pulling the strings as always and young Henry Pollock grabbing the headlines (as always!)The boys work out that he shares far too many similarities with a certain Ryan Wilson.... oh no!Reviews and predictions incoming as well!Enjoy!

Gloucester bury Bristol + HK 7's aftermath
This week the boys are scattered all over the place, Ryan is Turnberry, Max is in Cornwall and Marc is in Les Arcs.... so yet again another apology for a delayed episode. Theyve promised that next week everything is back to normal!We hear from Max after that bruising defeat against Gloucester. Max reckons Seb Atkinson was Jonah Lomu, just bumping people for fun while Tomos Williams showed all the skills of Steph Curry. That said Max did get himself a meat pie so every cloud eh.....We get the boys thoughts on Henry Pollock as he picks up his first Premiership try and what a try it was! However they put the skids on any Lions thoughts. Not because he's not good enough but more because the competition is just so intense in the back row. (Does he play prop?)We also look ahead to the Champions Cup round of 16 this weekend with some big ties to look forward to including the ROG derby between La Rochelle and Munster.We also hear what actually went down in Hong Kong as Ryan hung out with an array of the worlds biggest Rugby stars.Enjo!
