Ep 2893: Ireland Back It Up, Six Nations Satisfaction-o-meter, Central Gibson Park, The Greatest Galway Man - 18/03/24




Second Captains show

Summary: <p>Ireland have won back-to-back Six Nations and have been a very consistent team over a long period of time now. We put their achievements into context while also examining their form, which has tapered off since the Italy game.</p><br><p>We chat to Chris Jones of the BBC, former 6N winner Andrew Trimble, and Tom English of BBC Scotland about Ireland's second-half power show against Scotland, if their attack needs a re-think, how they will cope if Peter O'Mahony retires, Central Gibson Park, and how Jack Crowley has settled in at 10.</p><br><p>We also examine the quality of this year's Six Nations, if mid-table England will in fact be the most satisfied of all, Italy's rise and Wales having as much of a nightmare off the pitch as on it.</p><br><p>Plus there's the greatest ever Galway sports person, Murph wilts under the McGeeney Gaze and Farrell bites back.</p><br><hr><p style="color:grey;font-size:0.75em;"> Hosted on Acast.
