Oisin McConville and Mike Quirke are on hand to welcome Galway into the Super 8s. Galway found a way to win after trailing at half-time… just not the way that some people presumed.

And Shane Horgan pays homage to Cristiano Ronaldo… before telling us how excited he was by Ireland’s thrilling 26-21 second test win over Australia, a game in which Ireland learnt a lot about themselves and their tactics.

Plus there’s a spanner at the Connacht final, Oisin relinquishes his world dead-ball specialist crown, and Eddie is jonesin’ pretty bad for a win right about now.
