There'll be previews, reviews, and the odd rant when required. Two episodes a week covering the boys in blue, with a sharp eye on the URC, Europe, and whatever the Irish setup is up to.

If you follow Leinster, if you love the game, or if you just enjoy someone else doing the overthinking for you, you’re in the right place.
