    May 26 2026
    Will, Luke and Cian convene (again) for a Leinster Champions Cup final post-mortem. Leinster's awful first-half performance, whether their defensive system is fit for purpose and the future of Leo Cullen as head coach are all on the agenda. The lads also discuss Ulster's tough night against Montpellier after a similarly chastening defeat. The Left Wing is sponsored by Energia.
