Summary

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!
