The Buildup is Balls.ie's 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 we preview another Champions Cup weekend with Ireland and Ulster legend Stephen Ferris. 
It's the back to back week Europe with another full set of Ireland V England fixtures ahead. Stephen brings us through the four games, talking in particular about the brilliant form of Ulster scrum half  John Cooney and his worry about the standard of Munster's performances so far this season. 
If you want to listen to the entire show, which includes a chat with Kevin Doyle on the Premier League, a preview of the Presidents' Cup, our NFL picks and much more, subscribe to The Buildup on Balls.ie podcast feed or the general Balls.ie feed.
