RTÉ Rugby Podcast · Connacht blow URC play-offs wide open, Ireland bullish ahead of French rematch · 22 Apr 2026 podcast

And Ulster are in an unfortunate situation where they were up there and quite safe, but where they were travelling and all of a sudden they're looking down again and injuries.

And I'm sure we'll get to that.

But the Connacht situation, I think it's not...

Obviously they'd like to get into the playoffs and straight into the Champions Cup, but I actually don't think the success or failure of their season is going to be based on where they end up at the end of this league and where the table lies.

Because I think what you've seen post-Christmas is enough for them to be excited with the player pool that they have that Bernard went through.

If they get two performances out of three or if they get two results out of three and lose out, I think they'll be really, really happy where they're at and they go with a clean slate into next year.

and all the systems are in place and yet they've brought in quality as well haven't they so I saw there was a tweet with like players in and players out and the players in is kind of efficient but you know what they have is absolute quality coming in so I do think like and go and bring a Munster to the Dexcom like they're going to cause a lot of trouble so I think this weekend is probably the one that

will dictate where they go because, you know, it could take the air out of their tyres a small bit but get back to Galway and take Munster on who are, you know, looking like they're trending in the right way but, you know, very, very fickle inside in that building at the moment.

So, I think Connacht are in a really good place.

I know it's hard to say they're the lowest ranked team at the moment but their form is going one way and I think it's great for the club.

Well, that's exactly what I was going to say.

They're really struggling.

You know, was it round five against Munster or round four?

And all of a sudden, the tide was turning and Irish Rugby and Leinster weren't it anymore.

But they've struggled through the season and they're going to finish top of the league in the Champions Cup final.

So, like, it's... No, I think that, like what Bernard said, you go back to... They rotated their squad and I think that's...

obviously their massive strength and how they're under pressure with their RFU and numbers and finance and all that kind of stuff but you know for them to rotate their squad get that performance out there to go 29-0 up you're seeing the Leinster of I wouldn't say the Leinster of old but the Leinster you'd expect and it's dangerous now with them coming into that form with all the internationals they'll bring in

I just think, you know, like Luke McGrath, we've seen, you know, enough of him.

You know, he's been such a stalwart with Leinster.

So, like, you don't question that at any stage.
