    The End For Ireland? & Max got the Call for England!

    The Six Nations is back — and Maul or Nothing opens Week 1 with a proper deep dive, featuring Italy winger Louis Lynagh after one of the most emotionally charged weekends of international rugby.

    Royal Rumble: Sale v Saints Chaos + Six Nations Shock Call

    MON dissects a brutal Premiership weekend and some seismic Six Nations decisions. Sale v Northampton had everything — needle, niggle, and a scoreline that didn’t tell the full story. Ryan caught up with Henry Pollock and Tommy Freeman after the game and lifts the lid on how Saints actually took it. Bristol grind out a filthy win in dreadful conditions — not the Bears way, but maybe their most satisfying yet. Flying high in the Prem… so why only one Bear anywhere near the England squad? Harlequins crash back to earth. Fans leaving early. Should relegation come back into the Premiership? Leicester quietly motor on. Bath enjoy their annual tradition as Finn Russell shushes The Shed. Gloucester stay competitive despite being depleted — with Charlie Atkinson flashing real promise at 10. Try celebrations are getting bolder too — torpedo dives, salutes to opposition fans… is anything off-limits now? URC chaos: •⁠ ⁠Glasgow squeezed by Zebre •⁠ ⁠Stormers beaten at home by the Sharks •⁠ ⁠Bulls win in Edinburgh — and once again prove they do travel Plus: Welsh rugby ownership chaos, England’s stacked depth, major Six Nations omissions, and why some of the biggest names in Europe are watching from home. Who on earth chooses to leave out Damian Penaud??? All that — and MAX on conditions, violence-fuelled motivation, and a proper Royal Rumble Hosted on Acast.
