Ben Youngs, Ruby Tui and Shaunagh Brown are in the studio together to break down all the Rugby World Cup quarter-final action. South Africa shock with a 15 woman lineout, do the Red Roses play their best rugby in the rain? And… for the love of Sophie De Goede’s mighty boot.

Plus a look ahead to the Semi finals. …which France team will show up this weekend against the Red Roses? And who does Ben think will win that semi final clash between New Zealand and Canada under Friday night lights. Spoiler: it’s not the same as Ruby.
