Big moment in Ireland's win. Sam Prendergast hits a beauty of a spiral 50:22 kick, Ireland score equalising try off the lineout. Has to catch on inside shoulder, Blair Murray would've felt he was well positioned in backfield, low fizzer of a spiral clears him for 50:22.

The return of the six nations is quickly approaching and it comes with rugby's most historic fixture. The Calcutta Cup! But what can we learn from both England's and Scotland's last outing, and how might they go about their business on Saturday evening. Enjoy!

3 - Ireland have now won their first three games in each of the last three Men's Six Nations campaigns, the first side to do so since Italy joined the Championship in 2000; previously, only England (2001/2002 and 2016/2017) had done so in back-to-back editions. Consistent.

I'd love to say I'm surprised. But this was on the cards from day 1. @gortoshay1.bsky.social now solidifies his reputation as the Danny Cipriani of the bowls world.

Some Welsh rugby clubs struggling to sell Six Nations tickets. Don't believe the WRU when they tell you the game's a sell-out. This should be ringing alarm bells in Westgate Street. The goose has stopped laying those golden eggs. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Morning! Just as well we travelled when there was no rugby on. Especially not the URC. In Wales. During the international window.

Another nice analysis piece from @nathanrjohns.bsky.social looking at the tweaks in Ireland's attack since the autumn.

If you want a sense of how important JGP has been to the Irish defence so far, he currently ranks joint second in the 6N for dominant tackles with 5. The only other Irish player with more than 1 is Garry Ringrose with 2.
