In the final Friday preview pod of the season, Murray assesses Ireland's selection, their room for improvement, and their general attitude as they seek to level the series with the world champions and end a long campaign on a high. Murray and Gavan will be back for a post-match pod shortly after the full-time whistle on Saturday: the42.ie/extra

Murray Kinsella joins Gavan Casey from Pretoria on the eve of Ireland's first test against the back-to-back world champions.

They also field a series of questions from subscribers on a variety of topics, including the quantifiable effect of altitude, Ireland's own talent-production line, and the Springboks' vocal build-up to tomorrow's showdown at Loftus Versfeld.
