About this episode

The episode discusses the final weekend of the 2026 Six Nations and the potential outcomes for the championship.

Super Saturday is almost here as the 2026 6 Nations reaches its conclusion. Who will win the title as France, Scotland and Ireland are all in the running? In a championship that has had plenty of twists and turns, will there be another shock on the final weekend? Alfie, Will and Alex are outside a Parisian cafe to look ahead to the weekend. They dive deep into England's struggles by tackling a mountain of listener questions and explaining what has gone wrong for Steve Borthwick's side. Will he remain as the head coach? Will they stick to the kick heavy gameplan? And, is Lee Blackett having any impact as attack coach? Plus, who will win between Ireland and Scotland in Dublin? The winners will go to the top of the table ahead of France v England. And, can Wales win in the 6 Nations for the first time in three years or will Italy win to have their best ever championship? *** Allianz Future Fund | Allianz Insurance Hosted on Acast.
