Episode 3094: Ireland Drop The Ball, Lowe Energy, Aussies Ignite, Investigative Series News
Ireland made 21 handling errors and conceded 13 penalties in an error-strewn 10-point loss to NZ on Friday night. But was it all James Lowe’s fault for geeing up the crowd while celebrating a kick!!?
We chat to Gerry Thornley and Shane Horgan about this performance in isolation, and in the context of this Ireland team’s form over the last few years, about Farrell’s spiky post-match press conference, about what happened the attack, if both outhalves are damaged by what happened, what changes are coming in what is now a huge game against Argentina, and Australia’s magical last-second win in Twickenham.
And we have big news about a Second Captains investigative series launching this week on BBC Sounds, from the production team behind “Where Is George Gibney?”. If you subscribed to the “Where Is George Gibney?” podcast feed, that feed is now called COVER, and that’s where you’ll be able to hear this new series. If not simply search “Cover – BBC Sounds” in your podcast app; the journey starts tomorrow, Tuesday the 12th November.
First thing tomorrow morning, the trailer for @Younghorgan and @CiaranCass‘s new series for @BBCSounds will land in your existing feeds for the multi award-winning ‘Where Is George Gibney?’ series.
The strand is now called ‘Cover’ as Mark explains belowhttps://t.co/wbQYs2e1v1
