About this episode

Rich and Rob discuss a dramatic weekend of Top 14 rugby and preview upcoming Champions and Challenge Cup matches.

Rich dials in from his holidays to join Rob to run through a dramatic and entertaining weekend of Top 14 action. French teams and British fans alike will be gearing up for the return of the Champions Cup and Challenge Cup this week, so we consider: do the French teams care more than everyone else? There is, of course, a significant round of Pro D2 action to digest as well, after some significant shuffling of the pack in the Pro D2 table.
