Ben, Charlie and Charles reflect on the opening round of Six Nations where Ireland came from behind in Dublin to see off England in the standout fixture of the weekend

It was a familiar story for Steve Borthwick's side who produced an impressive opening half before fading in the second and ultimately surrendering their lead again.

We take a look at what worked, what didn't, and what can be done this weekend against France to give England a much needed win.

Speaking of France, they hammered Wales on the opening night thanks to another impressive display from Antoine Dupont, we take a close look at the threat they pose England. As for Wales, we ask if Warren Gatland's side stand any chance of picking up a single win in this years tournament.

Plus we take a look at Scotland's win over Italy, we hear from Brian Moore and Sir Ian McGeechan on their wildcard shouts for the Lions tour this summer and we tackle your questions as usual
