## Resource

Episode 15 of The Women’s Rugby Podcast on FinalWhistle reflects on a decisive weekend in the Energia All-Ireland League Women’s Division, while also turning attention to Ireland’s progress in the Six Nations. Hosted by Diarmuid Kearney and Aimee Clarke, the panel is reunited as Stacy Hanley returns from her break, bringing player insight, tactical analysis, and press-box perspective at a pivotal stage of the season. The trio look back on the Conference Final, where Wicklow were crowned champions after overcoming Galwegians, ending the campaign on a high and securing silverware. Attention then shifts to the international stage, where both Ireland U21s and the senior side recorded wins over Italy at the Dexcom Stadium, before looking ahead to a major test away to France this weekend. Big games, big voices, and big moments, everything you need to know as the season reaches its climax at the Final Whistle.
