In a replay of last season’s final these two sides meet again but this time in Dublin. Planet Rugby takes a closer look at the rivalry ahead of the weekend.
Check out this lovely moment from La Rochelle’s Top 14 clash with Bordeaux-Begles, where Ronan O’Gara took time out of the match to give some coaching tips.
A 26-point masterclass from fly-half Antoine Hastoy helped La Rochelle to victory over Ulster in the Champions Cup, while the Stormers beat London Irish.
Ronan O'Gara has addressed the rumours linking him to the England head coach role, with Eddie Jones set to vacate the position at the end of the Rugby World Cup.
La Rochelle are hoping that Ronan O’Gara stays as the club’s head coach but would understand if he wants to try his hand at international rugby after the 2023 Rugby World Cup.
La Rochelle boss Ronan O’Gara has been banned for 10 weeks for “harming the best interests of rugby”, the Ligue Nationale de Rugby confirmed on Wednesday.
