Kevin McLaughlin and Mike Prendergast on The Hard Yards

Brought to you by Innocent.

It’s a big week of rugby…

Leinster face Racing 92 in the Champions Cup Final in Bilbao on Friday, and what better way to get yourself ready for the game than to listen to the latest episode of The Hard Yards.

To discuss the week ahead, host Andy McGeady and SportsJOE reporter Pat McCarry joined by Kevin McLaughlin and Mike Prendergast.

Kevin has won the Heineken Cup with Leinster three times so he’s the ideal person to give an insight into what will be going on in both camps this week.

Mike is coaching with Oyonnax in France in the Top 14 and gives the panel the thoughts on the ground in France and also an insight into the Racing team whom they regularly face in France.
