The Buildup is our new weekly podcast, with Ladbrokes, where we preview all the major sporting action for the weekend ahead. We'll be building the hype, whetting the appetite and making some bold predictions for everything that's happening.
This is the rugby section of the show where our regular rugby analyst Stephen Ferris is back with us to discuss Ireland's strong performance against Scotland, our prospects for the rest of the tournament and the overall Rugby World Cup so far. He also gives his tip for the Ireland Japan game. 
If you want to listen to the entire show, which includes Kevin Doyle looking ahead to the football weekend, our NFL picks, and much more, subscribe to The Buildup on Balls.ie podcast feed or the general Balls.ie feed.
