Bristolâs season is over, but not before Max Lahiff signed off Ashton Gate in style.The Bears may have missed the Premiership semi-finals, but theyâve still got the West Country bragging rights â and after that result which shall not be mentioned â 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 â matching Ryan Wilsonâs 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 weâve lost a listener in the process.We also look back on an unforgettable weekend in Bilbao â the rugby, the food, the friends and the chaos â before reacting to the internetâs latest attempts to describe Max:â˘â â The Honey Badger born in the Cotswoldsâ˘â â Like Hugh Grant and The Rock had a babyâ˘â â A shoo-in for a Bond villainâ˘â â The Brian Blessed of rugbyâ˘â â And multiple comparisons to Lord FlashheartâŚThen itâs URC quarter-final time.Ryan relives Glasgowâs 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 whatâs it really like trying to knock your dad out of the URC?We break down all the quarter-final action:â˘â â Bulls v Munsterâ˘â â Stormers v Cardiffâ˘â â 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:â˘â â Saints secure a home semi-finalâ˘â â Exeter damage Leicesterâs top-two hopes while ending Bristolâs seasonâ˘â â Saracens keep rolling â is this the start of Sarries 2.0 or simply a strong finish?â˘â â Newcastleâs end-of-season celebrations and whether theyâre getting slightly carried awayâŚAnd with one round left, we preview two huge fixtures:â˘â â Bath v Leicester â potentially a semi-final dress rehearsalâ˘â â Exeter v Saracens â effectively a win-and-youâre-in shootout⸝đ¨ EXCLUSIVE OFFER â CHECK IF YOUâRE OWED MONEY đ¨The FCA has confirmed that millions of car finance agreements may have been affected by hidden commission arrangements.If youâve ever financed a car, van or motorbike, you could be owed compensation.Marc checked.Marc claimed.Marc got ÂŁ829 back.Check your eligibility in under 60 seconds:refundclub.co.uk/maul⸝đ Stay connected wherever you travel with Saily eSIM.Download the Saily app and use code MAUL for 15% off your first purchase.âď¸ Fast mobile data in 200+ destinationsâď¸ No roaming chargesâď¸ Quick and easy setup before you travelâď¸ Built by the team behind NordVPNDownload Saily and use code MAUL today.https://saily.com/maul00:10 Introduction and weather chat02:08 Memories of Bilbao12:07 Bears Bonus Point debate15:00 Weird End of Season vibes19:05 Refund Club20:03 URC - Glasgow marching on22:04 The Lancaster Conundrum - Father vs Son26:03 Bulls maul Munster31:29 Stormers v Cardiff34:32 URC Semi-Final Predictions36:08 Wolfcraig36:54 Prem Roundup47:54 Saily50:27 Leicester suffer first home defeat to Exeter54:49 Bath v Leicester - Old foes to reunite57:50 Newcastle v Sale - big celebrations!59:37 Congratulations to Worcester Hosted on Acast.
