With the news coming out last week that the RFU are looking in to bringing in a "risk assessment" for trans women to play rugby, we take a look at their proposal and discuss whether or not it's the right way to approach the issue. As much as we're totally unqualified to talk about the issue (didn't stop us starting a podcast in the first place), we think that having a conversation is the first step to making rugby open and safe for anyone to play our game.

We also take a look at the weekend's European action, cover a few headlines and have our weekly Major League Rugby round up. Also, there's a chance for you to win a free hat!
