Easterby's promotion and the big URC preview podcast | RTÉ Rugby podcast

Neil Treacy is joined by Bernard Jackman and Jonny Holland for the first episode in the new season of the RTÉ Rugby podcast.

We look at Simon Easterby's confirmation as interim Ireland coach next season, with the defence coach set to step up on a temporary basis while Andy Farrell is away on Lions duty.

The podcast goes province by province to preview the new BKT United Rugby Championship season, as we discuss how Munster (11:45), Connacht (20:30), Leinster (27:25) and Ulster (35:00) are shaping up.

And we also look at an impressive win for the Ireland women against Australia, and discuss how they are continuing their growth under Scott Bemand.
