A wild week for Irish sport gets underway tonight as Ireland take on Portugal at the Aviva, but the match simply can’t proceed without the official Ken Early Big Match Prediction…

The director of women’s rugby Anthony Eddy is the latest IRFU man to put his foot in his mouth regarding the women’s game. This looks like it might be the last straw for the current players – are the IRFU about to face open revolt?

The Ireland-All Blacks match is inching ever closer too and today we’re joined by former All Black scrum-half and now Sky Sports analyst (and all importantly, Second Captains audio bed star) Justin Marshall to talk about a New Zealand team who look to be reaching the kind of heights we haven’t seen them reach since 2015, how a re-energised Beauden Barrett is helping them get there, and why the Ireland team were to blame for the All Blacks flaming out in the 2019 RWC semi-finals.

Plus there’s Eddie Jones combative ways and Murph gets to talk about his beloved cricket.
