Massive away wins, apocalyptic weather, and disgruntled former players hitting social media after a few glasses of vin rouge... it's just another typical week in the world of French rugby. We run through all the Top 14 action, try and work out where Pro D2 is at, and there's backflips and karaoke in the Petit-Fours.

A midweek Hors d'Oeuvre you say? Fabien Galthie has announced his 42 man squad for the upcoming Autumn Nations Series tests against Japan, Argentina and the All Blacks, and after a tough old week at work we wanted to discuss a few points of interest...

Despite Rich dialling in from a tin can on the moon, we are delighted to be joined by Aurillac's Irish Hooker and all round gent Ronan Loughnane, to talk us through all things rugby in the Auvergne, with hurling, cows and Cantal cheese all on the menu…There's the usual round up of all the action including some magical tries in the Top 14, and we salivate at France's halfback options ahead of their Autumn International squad announcement on Wednesday.

We are delighted to be joined by England, Toulon and now Perpignan tight head Kieran Brookes to discuss Perpignan's start to the season, his time on the Riviera and settling into French Catalonia. Plus there's the usual weekly digest of the Top 14, including tight wins in the Vunipola and Rosbif derbies, you-know-who is back with a bang, and ProD2 serves up a low scoring classic.

Five rounds have passed in the Top 14, and we try and determiner who the movers and shakers are going to be. Castres as Champions? Crisis at Toulouse? Montpellier still mad? There's a deep dive on Mathieu Raynal's attempts to shake up the laws of the French game from behind his giant cigar, Antoine Dupont is getting into property and Pierre Mignoni may have finally lost it...
