Andy Farrell rolls the dice for France opener

As Andy Farrell names his XV to play France Hugh Cahill is joined in studio by Bernard Jackman, with Neil Treacy dialling in from Paris. The lads react to the Ireland head coach's personnel choices, as Cian Prendergast and Jacob Stockdale are rewarded for their recent form with starting positions for Thursday's Six Nations opener against France. The younger Prendergast brother, Sam, gets the nod at out-half. It's no real surprise, even if his defence remains a talking point - particularly given France's lightning quick back three. With the team and matchday squad now named, focus must turn to Ireland's discipline and how they can remain on the right side of the officials in the Stade de France.

The future of Ospreys and Welsh rugby, Bohan's big Six Nations call

Neil Treacy and Bernard Jackman are joined on this week's RTÉ Rugby podcast by journalist Simon Thomas, as we take a deep dive into the latest controversy in Welsh rugby. Simon, one of the most respected rugby writers in Wales, brings us up to speed on the WRU's plans to reduce their professional programme from four teams to three, with the Ospreys looking most likely to be disbanded after their current owners were revealed to be the preferred bidders to take over Cardiff. As well as looking at what this means for the Ospreys in the immediate future, we also find out how it has come to this, and the wider implications in both Welsh rugby and the URC. Later in the podcast (31:50), we react to the latest injury setback for Ireland ahead of the Six Nations, with Jack Boyle ruled out with an achilles injury, and Connacht's 20-year-old loosehead Billy Bohan called up. And we also discuss the concerns Ireland head coach Andy Farrell will have around his players' relationships with referees, who appear to be losing patience with the amount of backchat in games.

Breach business, impatient Dubs and how long can Limerick old guard keep delivering?

GAA commentator and journalist Cathal Mullaney is joined on the sofa by Rory O’Neill with Ciarán Whelan and Neil McManus to discuss the weekend’s football and hurling action. FOOTBALL (0:01) (0:30) Ciarán Whelan gives his thoughts on Dublin’s loss to Mayo adding that he feels older players need to step up, he also comments that the Dubs do seem to be the most inexperienced team so far and highlights the midfield as a possible issue for Ger Brennan that may need to be resolved before Championship season. (10:30) Ciarán comments that he felt Kerry sat deep against Donegal and it was Seán O’Shea that dragged Kerry back into it. He also noticed that Donegal’s panel are operating with more of their big hitters than Kerry. (15:40) Kieran McGeeney’s comments about the lack of communication between referees and management following the three-man breach decision in the first half were discussed by the group with Ciarán stating he felt the call was incorrectly made and urges for a common sense approach going forward. (27:00) Finally Ciarán makes a big prediction that the Leinster Championship will be full revived in 2026 off the back of strong performances from Meath, Kildare and HURLING (28:20) (31:20) Neil McManus joins for part two and the panel kick off by talking about Waterford’s bounce-back performance against Limerick. Neil reflects on Waterford’s intensity and highlights several concerns for Limerick. A question from a listener is answered, on if Wexford is now a Joe McDonagh standard team having been run so close by both Down and Antrim. (52:00) Neil also adds that for smaller panels losing players to injury and illness can be a challenge at this time of year.
