With the Rugby World Cup fast approaching, the Observer's rugby correspondent Eddie Butler is joined by Robert Kitson, rugby correspondent of the Guardian, Richard Williams, chief sports writer of the Guardian, and Claire Tolley, sports features editor of the Guardian, to preview the tournament in our special podcast.
The panel look at the chances of England, Scotland and Wales - before Brendan Fanning calls in to hurl a goblet of doom and gloom at Ireland's chances. Elsewhere, the pod wonders whether New Zealand will choke again, hails Australia's brilliant backs, and asks can the smaller nations light up the tournament?
