Summary
What was the most impressive win in the 2025 Six Nations? And which nation actually exceeded expectations this year? Chris, Tom English and Gareth Rhys Owen are back for one last Nations Pod. Tom is claiming a unique Grand Slam for Scotland despite their fourth place finish. But what was the main reason behind another disappointing campaign for Gregor Townsend's side? Are there still more questions than answers when it comes to the future of Welsh rugby following another wooden spoon? And if Andy Farrell needs any help selecting his Lions squad we are here to help. Tom, GRO and Chris have trawled through all the stats and data to pick their 38-man squads for Australia.
