Episode 56 is a different kind of show — a year in review across Leinster, the URC, the Investec Champions Cup, Irish rugby, and the wider game. Three sections, headline-style — I'm talking through it naturally, not reading a script.

🏉 Leinster news — From the Cape Town shutout to Bordeaux heartbreak, the Lions demolition, the Stormers semi, Nienaber's press conference, and a big academy year.

👩‍🦰 Women's rugby — Celtic Challenge playoffs, Wolfhounds three-in-a-row, both Women's Six Nations campaigns, and Aoife Dalton's form.

🌍 Wildcard — Robertson sacked, shock Six Nations results, doping scandals, Moana Pasifika folding, and the Ospreys lie detector row.
