About this episode

The semi-finals have been decided so we hear from the coaches and captains after an incredible weekend of heroics and heartbreak. First up we hear from Andy Farrell and Johnny Sexton on where the game was lost and what next for this Ireland squad. Ian Foster and Sam Cane give their take on the extra motivation the All Blacks had for this game, and how they managed to knock the number one team in the world off their throne.

We also hear from Warren Gatland after their loss to Argentina in Marseille. Steve Borthwick and Owen Farrell take shots at England’s doubters as they look forward to a semi-final against the Springboks, and Siya Kolisi and Jacques Nienaber respond to Dupont’s criticism of the referee and reflect on one of the all-time great quarter-final wins against the hosts.
