James Burridge, Tom May and Emma Thurston review the opening matches in this season’s European Rugby Champions Cup, including a thumping win for the holders Saracens at Northampton. Will Fraser gives us his thoughts on his former team’s impressive start.

Ryan Lamb tells James about his La Rochelle side and life in France, after a stand-out display in their win over Harlequins, while Les Kiss and Dai Young talk about Ulster’s defeat of Wasps.

We look ahead to Round 2 weekend with the help of Rory Best and John Kingston, there’s a Q&A with Leicester centre Matt Toomua and we’re joined by the man who captained Krasny Yar of Russia to victory over Challenge Cup holders Stade Francais Paris, in one of club rugby’s greatest ever shocks.
