Six Nations Final Weekend: England v France classic, Ireland v Scotland + Wales v Italy

A Guinness Six Nations finale for the ages, and Rugby Unity breaks it all down. David Pembroke is joined by Eddie Jones and Ewen McKenzie to review Ireland 43 Scotland 21, Wales powering past Italy, and that breathtaking England v France finish, 48–46, decided by the last kick. They get specific on why Ireland’s evolution under Andy Farrell is working, how Jamison Gibson-Park is running games differently to most nines, and why Scotland’s “disruptor” identity both lifts them and leaves them exposed. Wales’ momentum, selection consistency, and key spine players get a proper look, while Italy’s emotional hangover after their famous England win becomes a coaching case study. Then it’s straight into the big debates: advantage plus cynical play, yellow cards, 15 v 15, and whether Steve Borthwick should really be under pressure, with Michael Cheika rumours swirling.
