Episode 2649: Munster Complete Transformation, Hurling Is Hot, Kevin Moran Documentary
What you win is important, but so is how you do it and who you beat along the way, and Munster’s gritty run away from home against The Stormers. The Sharks, Glasgow, Leinster and The Stormers again in the final in Cape Town have turned an up and down season into a great one.
We drag Barry Murphy away from the celebrations in Limerick to put this URC title in context, and Ruaidhri O’Connor joins us fresh off a flight from Cape Town to discuss the performance, the Hodnett try, the job this coaching team have done in one season and how it may influence Andy Farrell’s extended World Cup squad, which is named later this week.
Plus there’s “le block”, Murph on a hot steamy weekend of hurling action and the f bomb cover up.
And Kevin “Branno” Brannigan is in studio to talk about his new documentary Kevin Moran: Codebreaker, which airs 9.35pm tonight, Monday 29th May, on RTE 1.
