About this episode

The episode features a discussion on Ulster Rugby's young side and their recent match against Munster, along with insights from guests and a look ahead to an important semi-final.

The brand new Stand Up: Ulster Rugby Show launches today. I’m hosting it alongside Gareth Steenson, and for episode one we’re joined by Ulster legend Alan O'Connor. We get stuck into Ulster’s young side and their brave defeat to Munster Rugby, hear the opposition view from Munster man and journalist Pat McCarry, and look ahead to a season-defining semi-final against Exeter Chiefs this Saturday. We also catch up with Al on what he’s up to now. If you’re into Ulster rugby, this is for you.
