  • France win the Six Nations, England sign off in style
    Mar 17 2025

    Ben, Charlie and Charles look back on the final round of the Six Nations which saw France crowned champions following a comfortable home win over Scotland.


    Elsewhere England produced a stunning display away in Cardiff to end their campaign in style, and heap more misery on Wales, meanwhile Ireland laboured to a win away in Rome

    .

    We take a closer look at the general health of the England squad following the tournament and whose stock has risen ahead of the Lions tour and England's tour of Argentina.


    With the dust now settled on the Six Nations, we take a look at who has laid down a marker for the Lions tour this Summer and ask if Maro Itoje is now the front runner to captain the side.


    Plus we tackle all your questions as usual!

  • France destroy Ireland in Dublin
    Mar 10 2025

    Ben, Charlie and Charles reflect on a decisive round four of the Six Nations where France dispatched Grand Slam chasing Ireland in Dublin.


    Charles was in Dublin to witness the scintillating display from the French and in particular their flying winger Louis Bielle-Biarrey.


    We also discuss how damaging the defeat could be for the Irish who were expected to dominate the Lions tour this Summer, will Andy Farrell have to re think some of his selections if Ireland find themselves finishing third in the Six Nations.


    Elsewhere we reflect on England's win over Italy, a much more expansive brand of rugby deployed by Steve Borthwick, and Ben gives us his report from Murrayfield as Scotland fight off a spirited Wales comeback.

  • Ireland vs France: The Decider
    Mar 3 2025

    Ben, Charlie and Charles build up to the return of the Six Nations this weekend after the final fallow week of the tournament.


    Next up for England is a home clash with Italy, and we discuss if we will see something different from England's attack at the weekend following a pragmatic approach last time out against Scotland.


    We kick things off with the standout tie of the round between Ireland and France, a win for either side here should all but guarantee the Six Nations title, and in Ireland's case it will set them on their way towards a Grand Slam and a third Six Nations in a row.


    Former Ireland assistant coach Les Kiss joins the show to pay tribute to the retiring trio of Cian Healy, Conor Murray and Peter O'Mahony after they have announced that Saturday's clash will be their last on home soil.


    And we answer your questions as ever including plenty on the Premiership Rugby Cup following the quarter finals at the weekend
