Summary

The 2022 Six Nations is done and dusted! Congratulations to France who picked up their first title since 2010 and they made it a Grand Slam too for good measure.

Joining Brian to recap the final weekend and the tournament as a whole is the former England centre Tom May. They look back on England's defeat on Saturday night and what in general went wrong for them over the course of the competition which left them with three defeats from five games.

The Telegraph's Charlie Morgan was in Paris, he joins the show to recap the tournament and discuss the areas of major concern for England and Jones heading into the Summer.

Italy picked up their first Sic Nations win for seven years in dramatic fashion. They scored one of the tries of the tournament in the final moments of their clash with Wales to ensure they didn't go home empty handed. Their captain Michele Lamaro joins the show and says he is confident of the long term foundations being laid in Italian rugby, and says he hopes it wont be seven years until their next Six Nations win.

Elsewhere we recap disappointing campaigns for Wales and Scotland and a promising one for Ireland who finished a close second to unbeaten France.
