S3 EP16 - French Cup Crisis?

The Investec Champions Cup and EPCR Challenge Cup are one round in, and amidst a deluge of rugby - some awful, some stupendous - we're doing our best to unpack the cliches, the lows and the distinctly Bordeaux flavoured highs from a generally underwhelming round for the French sides. There's also plenty to discuss from Pro D2, housing renovations in the Béarn, and plenty of gastronomic fare in the Petit-Fours. Look out for further previews of this weekend's games over on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@RosbifsRugby 00:15 Entrées 04:24 Champions Cup Round 1 Review 07:16 Bulls v Bordeaux 15:09 Pau v Northampton 20:35 Gloucester v Castres & Is French Rugby Crap? 23:52 Edinburgh v Toulon 25:51 La Rochelle v Leicester 28:29 Round 2 Preview 31:24 Challenge Cup 36:55 Pro D2 Round 13 44:19 Pro D2 Round 14 Preview (incl.
