Episode Notes
Fresh off Ireland’s victory over Australia in Sydney, Gerry Thornley dials in from Australia to discuss that win as well as the weekend of Nations Championship rugby as a whole with host Nathan Johns.
What did we learn from the narrow win over the Wallabies? Are we likely to see many Irish debuts handed out over the three tests?
And could Japan prove to be a potential banana skin given their wining display against Italy in their Nations Championship opener?
Produced by John Casey.
