| 0:07.5 | All righty then, here we go. |
| 0:13.4 | My word. |
| 0:14.2 | What a final weekend of Six Nations rugby. |
| 0:17.3 | Three teams were in it to win it on Super Saturday. |
| 0:20.0 | But in the end, it all came down to |
| 0:21.9 | the Frenchman's boot. Imagine being Ireland. Imagine being England. I have you look at it, |
| 0:27.8 | mate. Up there with the best tournament ever, surely, or just the loosest, whichever we were going to |
| 0:32.4 | get into it. England finally turned up for a match to the Six Nations. Probably should have won it, |
