  • Six Nations: Forza Italy – Azzurri on the up but need another huge scalp

    building rome

    “Forza Italia” was the phrase ringing around the Stadio Olimpico in Rome after Italy’s 29-24 loss to defending Six Nations champions France on Sunday. Why such jubilation after a defeat? Because 41,000 spectators saw an Italian side pumped with passion running the Grand Slam holders close in the greatest annual international rugby tournament in the [...]

  • Exclusive: Worcester Warriors sale in spotlight over administrator’s email to witness

    exclusive

    The impartiality of Worcester Warriors’ sale process has been called into question after the administrators were accused of pressuring a witness ahead of a parliamentary select committee. A partner at DCMS–appointed administrators Begbies Traynor warned the witness that they could be sued for defamation if they repeated allegations about preferred bidder Jim O’Toole’s Atlas consortium [...]

  • Defending Six Nations champions France sneak past Italy in Rome thriller

    close affair

    Six Nations Grand Slam holders France began their Championship defence with a nervy win over Italy in Rome on Sunday afternoon.

  • England may have lost Calcutta Cup vs Scotland but Six Nations hope remains

    February 5, 2023

    Steve Borthwick’s first game as head coach of England offered an intriguing comparison with the last match of predecessor Eddie Jones in the autumn.

  • Six Nations: Resurgent Italy on a mission to earn respect from relegation backers

    February 5, 2023

    They’re the traditional whipping boys of the Six Nations, with their highest finish coming 10 years ago when they concluded the Championship in fourth, but Italy have a new-found confidence and are going back to basics in 2023. Last year they beat Wales in Cardiff to end a 36-match Six Nations winless run before backing [...]

  • Six Nations: France are serial winners but bond means more, says Kayser

    February 4, 2023

    France come into this Six Nations as defending Grand Slam champions, something they haven’t been able to do since 2011.

But the stakes are higher in 2023, which brings a World Cup in which they’ll play hosts, and the [...]

  • Six Nations: Ireland are favourites but selection needs adjusting, says Best

    February 4, 2023

    The four provinces of Ireland strut into this year’s Championship as the best in the world: the top ranked team on the planet and firing on all cylinders. Ireland look like they’re peaking, but they have been guilty in the past of climaxing a year too early when it comes to getting the World Cup [...]

  • Six Nations: Wales can be unleashed by bruising back row and Owens may not be World Cup captain, says Warburton

    February 3, 2023

    Wales are in a tricky patch ahead of the 2023 Six Nations. They’ve got a new coach in Warren Gatland who is also their ex-coach, a third captain in the space of 18 months, and some exciting youngsters to test out ahead of the World Cup. They won the tournament in 2021 but finished fifth [...]
