About this episode
Alfie Reynolds and Egan Alderman look back on all the biggest stories across the last week. Including the possibility of a rugby world cup heading to the Middle East, Andy Farrell selecting players based in France and a future British and Irish Lions tour against Les Bleus. Plus, they review the Premiership and 6 Nations action over the weekend by asking if Saracens are devaluing the Champions Cup? And Elgan's quirky idea for how the Red Roses can get more competitive fixtures. Owen Slot also joins the pod to reflect on RFU CEO Bill Sweeney surviving a motion to remove him as the head of the governing body.
