Bordeaux Bègles brutalise Northampton Saints in a Champions Cup statement — and this episode features Bordeaux winger Salesi Rayasi, the flying Fijian who lit up the contest with pace, power and presence.

Rayasi joins us as we break down a wild night where Bordeaux overwhelmed Saints, Cameron Woki crossed for a hat-trick from the back row, and the atmosphere turned full pantomime. Despite the heavy loss, Henry Pollock somehow drags Saints to a priceless bonus point, producing a WWE worthy performance… first they booed then they chanted his name

Elsewhere, Bristol Bears blitz the Bulls at altitude with breathtaking, ball-in-hand rugby (including a try for our very own Max Lahiff)— piling on 75 points by half-time, scoring 16 tries, and handing the Bulls the second-most points ever conceded at Loftus Versfeld in the professional era. Ten Springboks on the teamsheet. Still not enough. Flowing rugby, ruthless tempo, total breakdown.

We also cover:

•Toulouse losing their aura on the road

•Saracens with no European wobble

•Harlequins delivering a result nobody called

•Stormers’ unbeaten run ending in humiliation (John Dobson: “humiliating”)

•A thriller at the Aviva as Harry Byrne holds his nerve in front of nearly 40,000

•Edinburgh all but securing knockout rugby — including a brutal front-row moment

•Glasgow Warriors stacking maximum points away at Clermont

Hat-tricks. Heat. Altitude. Villains. Flying Fijians.

This is Champions Cup rugby at full throttle.
