Joe Molloy was rejoined by Mick McCarthy, Will O'Callaghan and Arthur James O'Dea for another edition of A Slight Tangent on Off The Ball. (01:00) Joe for the Late Late Show! (06:00) Why Irish people love Andy Farrell so much. (10:00) Johnny Sexton: Portrait of an Irish legend. (25:00) Is Formula 1 all a cod? (32:00) Horse racing and hypocrisy. (37:00) Irish fans are being priced out of sport - it isn't fair.

On Tuesday's Rugby Daily, Richie McCormack brings you the latest from the Ireland camp ahead of the start of the Women's Six Nations. We hear from Maeve Óg O'Leary and Niamh Briggs. Scott Robertson speaks after being named the next All Blacks head coach. Connacht have given an update on the fitness of Finlay Bealham, as another western stalwart extends their stay. And Ospreys suffer a double blow with a Champions Cup knockout on the horizon.

Ireland legend Brian O'Driscoll joined Joe Molloy to reflect on Ireland's win against England and their Grand Slam success. 🏉 with Vodafone | #TeamOfUs (0:00) - Lovely family moments for the Irish players after landing the Grand Slam. Credit for the England defence. (08:00) - “At no point did I feel that we weren’t going to win.” Ireland were drawn into an arm-wrestle with Englan’s kick-chase game. (17:00) - Sexton knew how to keep the team moving forward. It was a comprehensive Grand Slam. Ireland’s tries conceded record shows their strength in defence. (23:00) - Was Freddie Steward’s red card warranted? (30:00) - Saturday felt as much about Johnny Sexton as it was about Ireland. His leadership has had a big impact on the teams he’s played for. (40:00) - I wouldn’t discount Mack Hansen from winning player of the tournament. Andrew Porter has a remarkable work-rate. Sheehan’s great play in the loose. Teams have time to work out Ireland before the World Cup. New Zealand and South Africa always deliver at World Cup. (50:00) - Farrell to coach the Lions in ‘25? Is Paul O’Connell a future Ireland head-coach? Is this the best Irish team ever?
