Leinster Tunnel Clash, Bulls Shock Glasgow & Is England Ignoring Henry Slade?

Talent gets you through the door. It does not keep you in the room, and it has almost nothing to do with what you become.Kieren Jack is proof. The last pick in the AFL rookie draft, too small and too slow on paper, he outworked every reason he should not have made it. Kieren played 256 games for the Sydney Swans, co-captained the club, won the 2012 premiership and earned a place in its Hall of Fame. Then he did the harder thing. He walked away at the top and started again, building a whole new career in business where his name meant nothing.What carries across is the useful part. How do you keep performing when you are running on empty? What actually holds a team together when pressure hits? Why do the people who get knocked down and underestimated often end up the most dangerous?Recorded live, in a room that was never meant to be a podcast. No script, no second takes. You've got a seat that wasn't on sale.Whatever you are trying to build, you'll leave this one thinking differently about how you get there.0:00 Pick 138, a famous surname, and why talent only opens the door1:50 How the Swans built a dynasty on character, not talent5:10 Missing the draft, choosing his own sport, and finding his identity9:20 The 2012 flag, and what that team had that he's never seen again17:40 Take the baton: the motto that outlived the players who made it19:15 A season as co-captain, played on empty, in a dressing gown22:05 When a private family conflict went public before his 200th game28:10 Twins, no sleep, and what sport does and doesn't teach you about parenting33:45 Why he studied an MBA mid-career, and why leaving the game made him better37:00 A $120m deal in four months, and what footy gave him no MBA could41:05 Joining the West Coast rebuild and flipping the member thank-you44:55 Premiership to wooden spoon: what went wrong and what a rebuild takes48:25 Q&A: carrying elite habits into everyday life when structure disappears49:55 Q&A: what good culture really looks like, and who actually builds it53:20 Q&A: leading young, learning empathy, and what he'd do differently at 20You can find Kieren at his LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kieren-jack-b09b2396/Or at his Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kjack_15/?hl=en Use Code "PQPODCAST10" to get 10% off your Lumo Coffee order:https://lumocoffee.com/ Interested in sharing your story?

In this week's episode of The Rugby Paper Roundup… Assistant Editor Ben Jaycock is joined by Northampton Chronicle rugby writer Tom Vickers to preview a mouthwatering Gallagher Premiership semi-final weekend. Friday night sees one of English rugby's fiercest rivalries take centre stage as Northampton Saints host Leicester Tigers at Franklin's Gardens with a place in the Premiership final on the line. We revisit the iconic 2014 semi-final between the sides, discuss whether this remains the biggest rivalry in the Premiership, and examine why history suggests the winner could go all the way and lift the trophy. With Saints having topped the table and successfully navigated a season of rotation, injuries and international call-ups, we assess the outstanding job Phil Dowson has done, the impact of Anthony Belleau, and how Northampton have maintained their consistency despite spending periods without Fin Smith. We also discuss: • George Furbank's impending departure and the motivation it brings • Why Saints have flourished despite heavy squad rotation • Leicester Tigers' remarkable rise under Geoff Parling • The clash of styles between Northampton's attack and Leicester's set-piece power • Tommy Freeman's ability to deliver on the biggest stage • The importance of Franklin's Gardens under the Friday night lights ---

Exeter are into the Prem play-offs and Ugo, Ashy and Danny are joined by Henry Slade to reflect on a memorable win over Saracens, and the Chiefs' remarkable transformation.

With Northampton hosting Leicester and Bath welcoming Exeter, will we get an away win in the play-offs this weekend? Plus, it's report card time for those teams that didn't make the play-offs. We also round up the URC semi-finals after Glasgow's dramatic collapse against the Bulls, discuss Leinster's latest shot at silverware, and react to Andy Farrell committing to Ireland until 2031.

Irish rugby writer Pat McCarry returns to the 8/9 Rugby co-host chair, where he and Brett McKay cast an eye back over the first weekend of finals anywhere in the rugby world, the United Rugby Championship quarter-final weekend. Though the URC finished in a flurry, as teams jostled for the final playoff spots, the four QFs all went the way of the home teams, with Glasgow, the Bulls, Stormers, and Leinster all winning through to the semis.

Bristol's season is over, but not before Max Lahiff signed off Ashton Gate in style.The Bears may have missed the Premiership semi-finals, but they've still got the West Country bragging rights — and after that result which shall not be mentioned — they bounced back in exactly the right way.Max joins us fresh from Friday night after scoring the winning try on his 200th Premiership appearance. Remarkably, it was his 10th Premiership try — matching Ryan Wilson's career tally of 10 in 222 appearances. We break down the game, the celebrations, becoming an accidental social media sensation, launching Sam Underhill into low earth orbit, and whether we've lost a listener in the process.We also look back on an unforgettable weekend in Bilbao — the rugby, the food, the friends and the chaos — before reacting to the internet's latest attempts to describe Max:•⁠ ⁠The Honey Badger born in the Cotswolds•⁠ ⁠Like Hugh Grant and The Rock had a baby•⁠ ⁠A shoo-in for a Bond villain•⁠ ⁠The Brian Blessed of rugby•⁠ ⁠And multiple comparisons to Lord Flashheart…Then it's URC quarter-final time.Ryan relives Glasgow's hard-fought victory over Connacht in a bruising contest, with Kyle Steyn once again delivering when it mattered most.We also hear from Dan Lancaster after helping Glasgow beat a side coached by his father, Stuart Lancaster. What did he know about the old man? Did he have access to the calls? And what's it really like trying to knock your dad out of the URC?We break down all the quarter-final action:•⁠ ⁠Bulls v Munster•⁠ ⁠Stormers v Cardiff•⁠ ⁠Leinster v LionsPlus our semi-final predictions. Can either South African side stop what feels like an inevitable Glasgow v Leinster final?We then turn our attention to the Premiership run-in:•⁠ ⁠Saints secure a home semi-final•⁠ ⁠Exeter damage Leicester's top-two hopes while ending Bristol's season•⁠ ⁠Saracens keep rolling — is this the start of Sarries 2.0 or simply a strong finish?•⁠ ⁠Newcastle's end-of-season celebrations and whether they're getting slightly carried away…And with one round left, we preview two huge fixtures:•⁠ ⁠Bath v Leicester — potentially a semi-final dress rehearsal•⁠ ⁠Exeter v Saracens — effectively a win-and-you're-in shootout⸻

Is Celtic's current model sustainable, or is the real problem rooted at the very top of the club? In today's live stream, the ACSOM panel dives deep into the principal shareholder's continuous grip on Celtic FC, exploring why a total structural "hard reset" is drastically needed ahead of the massive summer rebuild. With reports confirming that crucial manager talks between Dermot Desmond and interim boss Martin O'Neill have been pushed back - alongside delayed interviews with other candidates in London - the Celtic board is facing major backlash from a fanbase demanded to renew season tickets amidst ongoing administrative limbo. Despite securing a dramatic Premiership and Scottish Cup double, Celtic's campaign was riddled with operational issues, prompting serious questions over who is steering the ship. We discuss:

This week I sat down with George Burgess, a rugby league legend who won an NRL Premiership with the South Sydney Rabbitohs and represented England on the international stage. George is a good mate who I just kept running into everywhere, so we finally sat down for a proper chat, and I'm so glad we did. This one goes well beyond the footy.George opens up about losing his dad to Motor Neurone Disease at fifteen, and how that shaped the path that followed. It was Russell Crowe, part-owner of the Rabbitohs, who brought the Burgess family out to play for Souths, and George shares what that opportunity meant for him and his brothers, Sam, Tom and Luke, who he went on to play alongside in the NRL.We also get into a side of George a lot of people don't know. He has always loved acting, and since hanging up the boots he has carved out a serious career on screen, with roles in Land of Bad, Spartacus: House of Ashur, and the upcoming Lionsgate feature Beast in Me.This is a chat about grief, reinvention, brotherhood and backing yourself to start again. George is the real deal and I loved this one.In this episode we cover:Winning an NRL Premiership with the South Sydney RabbitohsLosing his dad to Motor Neurone Disease at fifteen and how it shaped himHow Russell Crowe brought the family to SouthsPlaying alongside his brothers Sam, Tom and Luke in the NRLHis lifelong love of actingLanding roles in Land of Bad, Spartacus: House of Ashur and Beast in MeWhat it takes to reinvent yourself after sportGrief, brotherhood and starting a new chapterFollow GeorgeInstagram https://www.instagram.com/george.burgess2.0/?hl=enConnect with Cooper and TGHF1% Good Club Book (use code PODCAST for 25% off) https://www.thegoodhumanfactory.com/products/1-good-club-bookInstagram https://www.instagram.com/cooperchapman/TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@cooperchapman_LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/cooper-chapman-08a278151/Workshop and Speaking Enquiries https://form.typeform.com/to/DSPSnvEHThe Good Human Factory Instagram https://www.instagram.com/thegoodhumanfactory/The Good Human Factory https://www.thegoodhumanfactory.comTHE GOOD HUMAN FACTORY™️ 2020 Hosted on Acast.

French rugby takes centre stage this week after a dominant EPCR finals weekend, with Bordeaux-Begles battering Leinster 41-19 to claim the Champions Cup and Montpellier beating Ulster 59-26 in the Challenge Cup.
