Episode Ep 3482: Ireland Hammer England, Gibson Park's 10, Rugby Makes No Sense - 23/02/26

0:00 1:03:12

Italy beat Scotland. Scotland destroy England. Ireland hammer England; the rugby punditry predictions flag is flying at half mast today.

Shane Horgan, author and journalist Brendan Fanning and 3 time Six Nations winner with England, Mike Brown, join us to try and make sense of a competition that makes no sense.

Plus there's Farrell's celebrations, Finn Russell's restart and England's total collapse of the heart
