Bristol’s season is over, but not before Max Lahiff signed off Ashton Gate in style.

The Bears may have missed the Premiership semi-finals, but they’ve still got the West Country bragging rights — and after that result which shall not be mentioned — 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 — matching Ryan Wilson’s 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 we’ve lost a listener in the process.

We also look back on an unforgettable weekend in Bilbao — the rugby, the food, the friends and the chaos — before reacting to the internet’s latest attempts to describe Max:

•⁠ ⁠The Honey Badger born in the Cotswolds

•⁠ ⁠Like Hugh Grant and The Rock had a baby

•⁠ ⁠A shoo-in for a Bond villain

•⁠ ⁠The Brian Blessed of rugby

•⁠ ⁠And multiple comparisons to Lord Flashheart…

Then it’s URC quarter-final time.

Ryan relives Glasgow’s 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 what’s it really like trying to knock your dad out of the URC?
