On this week's pod I have a moan about turnaround times, there are reviews of the final warmup of all of Ireland's Pool A opponents, plus a chat with my fellow panellist from the DTwo Bar last Friday, Cian O'Mulleoir.

THIS WEEK'S RUNNING ORDER
INTRO
HARPIN' POINT
"TURNAROUND TIMES NEED A-CHANGING"
Since player safety is meant to me so important in the game these days, why are teams at supposedly the highest-profile tournament given only 4 and 5 days to prepare? Is it because that's what they do in soccer and thus it should also work for rugby?
