It is the halfway point in the Champions Cup and there were three good results for Irish provinces over the weekend.
On this week's Balls.ie rugby podcast, World in Union, we reflected on all the weekend's action and discussed Conor Murray's form, Leinster's strength in depth, Ulster's doggedness and Connacht's underperformance.
We also caught up with former Connacht prop JP Cooney to discuss his transition to coaching, work with Andy Friend and thoughts on the club game out west.
Elsewhere, there is some analysis of New Zealand's next boss, the funniest player in rugby and a preview of this week's games.
