Join us to look ahead to another enthralling season of Top 14 action as we ramble through the teams, new recruits and potential fortunes of Rugby's premier club competition. Can Toulouse be toppled? Can Vannes beat the drop? Can Montpellier get even worse? We fail to answer all of these questions and more, plus there's Pro D2, Nationale, and celeb spotting down in Hyères... Strap in, the season's just getting started!

France's players finally wrap up their mammoth 2023/24 season with a cracker in Buenos Aires but the U20s fancy just one more game after an astonishing win against New Zealand in their bid to equal the Baby Blacks’ 4 successive World Cups. We review who shone in South America, whilst there's the small matter of all the new season fixtures to chow down on.
