Ireland and Munster prop Dave Kilcoyne and Luke Delaney are joined in the studio by former Leinster and Ireland hooker James Tracy. Following Ireland’s victory over Italy, the lads dive deep into the technical issues facing the Irish scrum and how the pack can find that elite level again ahead of the next round of the Six Nations.
James opens up about the devastating neck injury that forced his retirement in 2022 and what life looks like after the jersey. But it’s not all serious—we’ve got legendary stories involving Sean O’Brien, Tadhg Beirne, and Sean Cronin, plus James reveals his "Dream Pack" of teammates.
