Ulster Head Coach Richie Murphy joins the show this week to break down Ireland's defeat to New Zealand at Eden Park, as Andy Farrell's side fell short in the final game of this summer's Nations Championship.

The team analyse where the game was won and lost, discussing Ireland's set-piece struggles, the physical battle, and the key moments that swung the contest in the All Blacks' favour. Richie also gives his assessment of Ireland's performance, highlighting the positives to take from the tour and the players who enhanced their reputations across the three-match series.

Plus, the lads reflect on what the summer campaign revealed about Ireland's squad depth, the competition for places, and the encouraging signs ahead of a huge season.
