Summary

It’s Six Nations Eve, and the lads are buzzing for Round 1! The lads will be previewing round one, including a massive showdown in Dublin between Ireland and England, Scotland's Italian test and France v Wales. We'll also be asking if the Premiership is the right prep for test rugby, if rugby has dropped the ball with Netflix? And what happens if the Six Nations goes behind a paywall? Plus, we’ve got opening weekend predictions, Gatland’s coaching shake-up, and picks for Grand Slam contenders, Player of the Tournament, and Top Try Scorer. We’re also kicking off our biggest-ever live tour this week, so grab tickets while you can and download the MixR app for your free pint at our Walkabout shows! Learn more about your ad choices.
