Ben, Charlie and Charles reflect on the penultimate round of Six Nations action which saw seismic shocks at Twickenham and in Rome.
England defied the odds to produce their best performance since the 2019 World Cup to defeat Ireland and end the visitors hopes of becoming the first Six Nations side to win back-to-back Grand Slams.
Elsewhere, Italy produced a shock of their own by coming from behind to beat Scotland 31-29. Harlequins' Louis Lynagh had a debut to remember and he tells us what it was like to pull on the Italy shirt for the first time.
And, as Wales lose their fourth game on the spin, we speak to their former winger Louis Rees-Zammit who tells us all about his preparations to make it in the NFL after leaving rugby.

0:00.0 | Hello everyone, how good was that? |
0:10.0 | Comfortably the best weekend of the Six Nations so far, I think you'll agree. |
0:14.0 | We had upset wins for Italy and England, followed by Wales and France throwing haymakers at each other in Cardiff and Toulogne pulled clear. A great weekend. We'll now do our best to recap everything in this episode |
0:25.2 | while also hearing from Lewis Rees-Sammett and about his progress towards his dream of playing |
0:29.0 | in the NFL. I'm Ben Coles and I'm here in the studio with Charlie Morgan. Cholesa Colsey. |
0:34.1 | And also by, wait, Charles, you're not sitting opposite me. Where are you? No, I am in Wales, |
0:39.0 | because I was at the principality yesterday for those haymakers. And how were they? It looked |
0:45.2 | fun. It was fun. I wasn't actually that impressed by France. I'm sure we'll come on to that, |
0:50.3 | but it was very fun. They pulled clear because they just had too much ballast. |
0:55.5 | But yeah, it was a good game of rugby. |
0:57.4 | I thought for a second we might have the third upset of the weekend. |
1:00.5 | Charlie, not to pull back the curtain too much, |
1:02.5 | but we were just chatting before this about how it almost felt like it needed a weekend like this. |
1:08.3 | Well, it probably needed one upset and then to have two on the same day, hours apart. |
1:13.5 | That's great, isn't it? |
1:14.4 | Yeah, we got what we deserve for being righteous all tournament and saying, |
1:17.6 | what this tournament needs is this, and it needs Ireland's procession to a grand slam |
1:21.8 | to be stopped somehow and who's going to do it. |
1:25.6 | But Italy beating Scotland in a thriller and then another upset to follow, we were spoiled, |
1:31.7 | weren't we? |
1:32.0 | We certainly were. |
1:33.2 | Let's talk favourite moments. |
