Four-time Olympic champion sprinter Michael Johnson joins Gabby and Mark for an exclusive interview ahead of the third 'Grand Slam Track' event of the year. Everyone wants to see the 100m final at the Olympics, but how many people tune into athletics outside the main meets? Johnson wants to change that with 'Grand Slam Track' - a series of four events per year, where Racers each compete in two track events against a rotating cast of Challengers for a $100,000 winners cheque. So how do you judge success when you're a sports start up? Are the biggest names like Noah Lyles going to sign up soon? And, as a (self-admitted) impatient person, how is Michael handling this project? (11:00)Plus, Gabby and Mark react to a final-filled weekend from Arsenal lifting the Women's Champions League trophy, to Gary Lineker's goodbye on Match of the Day, and the noise around the refereeing as Northampton Saints lost the Champions Cup final. (01:30) And we look forward to a special bonus episode coming your way on Wednesday: an exclusive behind the scenes look at Sale Sharks rugby club, the Northern powerhouse who have one game left to make the play-offs. That includes access to the team meeting and interviews with Lions and England stars, George Ford and Tom Curry.

Bordeaux Bègles are Champions of Europe after defeating Northampton Saints in the 2025 Investec Champions Cup Final. Ben Youngs and Dan Cole have gathered in the virtual For The Love Of Rugby podcast studio to analyse the action. Elsewhere Bath Rugby secured their second trophy of the season as they romped to a win against Lyon in the EPCR Challenge Cup final. Plus, with the news that a Club World Cup is in the works, is this what rugby really needs?
Union Bordeaux-Begles have won the Champions Cup for the first time ever by beating Northampton Saints 28-20 in the final at Cardiff Principality Stadium. It's the first ever major trophy for the French team known as UBB as they backed up their star studded lineup and huge fanbase. But go back 20 years, some might be surprised to learn, this giant rugby club did not even exist. In this podcast I am joined by my good friend and UBB fan madame Maz Mac as she talks through her emotions watching this thrilling game. We then break down the tactics of each team and where the game was won and lost. We also name our two star players: Scrum half/captain Maxime Lucu and Fly Half Matthieu Jalibert - the most disrespected player in all of rugby. Maz then talks us through the history of UBB and what makes the club so special. With 32,000 fans attending every home game in the TOP14 and a European title under their belt, are they now the biggest rugby club in the world? And most importantly.. can they finally overthrow the might of Toulouse? #championscup #france #england #rugby #ubb #bordeaux #northampton #saints #top14 #premiershiprugby #rugbyanalysis #podcast Follow me on twitter: https://x.com/HuwGriffinRugby Learn more about your ad choices.

Johann van Graan is a world-class coach and in his role as Head of Rugby is responsible for the rugby programme at Bath Rugby. He holds complete responsibility for rugby matters concentrating on the coaching and performances of the team, overseeing all coaching and performance staff. Van Graan began his professional coaching at the Blue Bulls, and under Head Coach Heyneke Meyer, with focus on forwards and attack, he helped the South African franchise win three Super 14 titles. He moved on to become the Springboks Forwards Coach, winning the bronze medal at the 2015 Rugby World Cup before becoming Munster Head Coach in 2017. The 44-year-old has extensive coaching experience, spending five years at Munster before moving to Bath in 2022. Throughout his career van Graan has developed a long line of players who have gone on to feature regularly on the international stage for Ireland, South Africa, England, Wales and Scotland. Van Graan's leadership saw Bath reach the Premiership Rugby final in the 2023/24 season, narrowly missing out to Northampton Saints to be crowned runners-up after just two years at the helm of Bath Rugby. In 2024, it was announced that van Graan has committed a further five years to Bath Rugby, seeing him stay at The Rec until the summer of 2030.
