About this episode
In Tours, Rúaidhrí O'Connor and Cian Tracey join Sinéad Kissane to start the build-up to the huge World Cup showdown between Ireland and South Africa on Saturday. Rúaidhrí was in Bordeaux yesterday to watch the Springboks thrashing of Romania. They discuss Ireland's performance against Tonga, possible team selection against Boks and how Tier 1 nations and World Rugby need to do more to help other countries looking to close the gap. Luke Fitzgerald will be back tomorrow for his weekly in-depth analysis of Irish rugby and he’ll be giving his verdict on Ireland’s chances against South Africa.
