What Is Irish Club Rugby REALLY Like? Energia AIL Ep 7 S4

The Energia AIL Women's season is reaching its climax - and Episode 7 delivers the biggest talking points yet. 🏉 This week, host Maeve Óg O'Leary is joined by Blackrock College's Trinity Todd (Canada) and Sam Brackett (USA) - two overseas players who left North America behind to experience Irish club rugby firsthand. They share their honest, unfiltered take on life in Ireland, the culture shock of the Energia AIL, and what playing for Blackrock College Women is really like. We break down all the action from Round 16 and Round 17 of the 2025/26 Women's All Ireland League — including Railway Union's stunning 49-19 win over unbeaten league leaders UL Bohemian, Blackrock's remarkable 34-point turnaround in just seven days, and what Ennis RFC's debut AIL season tells us about the future of women's rugby in Ireland. With just one round left, the semi-final race is wide open. Who finishes top? Who gets home advantage? We've got the analysis you need.
