Invigorated England eye unlikely Six Nations title with France trip

    England head to an equally resurgent France on Saturday holding an outside chance of pipping Ireland to a Six Nations title not many would have predicted at the start of the campaign. Steve Borthwick's side need a bonus point victory in Lyon, with Paris' Stade de France out of use due to it being prepared for this summer's Olympic Games, and must hope Ireland lose to Scotland by […]

Wales risk Six Nations whitewash as North bows out against Italy

      Wales became accustomed to Six Nations success during Warren Gatland's first spell as coach from 2007 to 2019, winning four titles, including three Grand Slams. But Wales finished fifth last season after Gatland replaced fellow New Zealander Wayne Pivac. And if Wales fail to beat Italy at the Principality Stadium, they will end the tournament at the foot of the table for the first time since 2003 […]

Scots up against it as Irish eye Six Nations title consolation

    Ireland seek to make up for their frustration on missing out on historic back-to-back Six Nations Grand Slams by being crowned tournament champions in beating Scotland at Lansdowne Road on Saturday. The Irish were given a serious jolt, after cruising through their first three matches, by a revitalised England in losing at Twickenham but meet a Scots side equally battered and bruised after they lost to Italy. Not […]

Le Garrec shines as France eye resurgent England

    Nolann Le Garrec put his hand up as a worthy successor for Antoine Dupont's number 9 shirt with an all-encompassing display in France's 45-24 victory over Wales in the Six Nations. Le Garrec, 21, rightly won the man-of-the-match award for his performance behind a dominant pack, linking perfectly with Thomas Ramos as the clock wound down and the French turned the screw on the home side at Cardiff's […]

‘Outside chance’ of title as Scotland travel to Italy in Six Nations

    Scotland have an outside chance of claiming their first Six Nations title in a quarter of a century as they face improved Italy in Rome on Saturday. The Scots' last championship triumph came in 1999, the last year of the old Five Nations before Italy joined the tournament. They have not finished higher than third in the intervening 25 years but Gregor Townsend's team go into this weekend's […]

Ireland eye Six Nations title but Farrell still wary of England

    Andy Farrell has insisted his native England remain capable of scuppering Ireland's bid for successive Grand Slams even though the visitors will be overwhelming favourites to win Saturday's Six Nations clash at Twickenham. Ireland head coach Farrell's men have been the outstanding team of the tournament, with bonus-point wins over France, Italy and Wales suggesting their failure to get beyond the quarter-finals of last year's World Cup in […]

England sweating on Fin Smith injury ahead of Ireland clash

    England face an anxious wait on the fitness of Fin Smith ahead of Saturday's Six Nations clash with title-chasing Ireland. Smith was the only member of Steve Borthwick's squad to miss training on Tuesday as he recovers from a calf injury. With only Thursday's main session left before the Twickenham showdown, time is running out to prove his fitness. Losing Fin Smith would be a blow for England […]

Pressure on Galthie to refresh for Wales Six Nations trip

  The aftermath of France's dour start to the Six Nations, including a humbling to Ireland and a draw with Italy, has continued to overshadow the build-up to Sunday's trip to Wales. Head coach Fabien Galthie is being urged to hand new faces a chance with their title hopes all but over. When the 54-year-old took over in late 2019 he had spent years observing why Les Bleus had underperformed […]

France’s Galthie ‘absolutely not in danger’, says federation chief

    Fabien Galthie's position as France head coach is "absolutely not in danger", French Rugby Federation (FFR) president Florian Grill said on Monday after the side's Six Nations title hopes were dealt a massive blow with the drab draw against Italy. Les Bleus have won just once so far this tournament, a narrow win at Scotland, sandwiched between a humbling at home to Ireland and Sunday's 13-13 draw with […]
