A great show lined up for you...
We talk Simon Zebo, Champions Cup, player performances, the moment that won Ireland the Six Nations a few years back, working under Joe Schmidt and dealing with a rampant Paul O'Connell on this week's The Hard Yards.
Host Andy McGeady and SportsJOE reporter Pat McCarry are joined by former Leinster and Ireland flanker Kevin McLaughlin, IRFU High Performance Analyst Vinny Hammond in studio on this week's The Hard Yards.
