Who will qualify for the play-offs!?

THE TIMES
About this episode

With one week of the regular season remaining Alfie, Will and Elgan look ahead to the final weekend in the Prem.


They chat about the crunch fixtures as Bath host Leicester and Exeter play Saracens and ask who will make it into the play-offs?


With Bristol now out of the running for the top four they ask what next for the club? Is this another season of underachievement? And, have Sale hit rock bottom following their last-gasp defeat away to lowly Newcastle?


Plus, Saracens and England full-back Elliot Daly chats to Will and Elgan about his latest injury set-back, the departing Mark McCall and Saracens' push for the play-offs.


And, Worcester have won the Champ, Jo Yapp will be the first coach of the British & Irish Lions women's team and is Shaun Edwards departing France?
