Episode 59, and the club season is done — back-to-back URC champions, Leo Cullen's departure announced, and now the focus shifts to Andy Farrell's Ireland squad heading south for the inaugural Nations Championship. Jack Crowley is ruled out, which leaves four fly-halves in the squad: Sam Prendergast, Harry Byrne, Ciarán Frawley, and Nathan Doak — the Ulster scrum-half who can also play 10. Here is what I'm hitting on this week's episode:🎙️ Discussion Point; Andy Farrell's Four Fly Halfs — Crowley ruled out, Prendergast's Grand Final form, Byrne's Champions Cup credentials, Frawley's South Africa tour experience, Doak's versatility at 9 and 10, and who starts in Sydney, Newcastle, and Auckland.🏉 Next game; Ireland's Nations Championship Southern Series — Australia (4 July, Sydney), Japan (11 July, Newcastle), and New Zealand (18 July, Eden Park).
