Although neither Ireland nor Italy have a chance of winning the 2016 RBS Six Nations, both will be keen on salvaging some pride from this campaign, and it’s something that will be at stake when they meet in Dublin on Saturday. It’s been a disappointing tournament for the Irish, as they’ve been unable to mount a stern defence of the title they won 12 months ago. They’ve not beaten any of the three other usual challengers in their first three matches, but games against Italy, who are also without a win, and Scotland should see them finish with a flourish. The visitors will...

Wales will relish the chance to derail England’s chances in another major tournament at Twickenham, as the two rivals get set for another tussle in the Six Nations. Eddie Jones’ England lead the way in the overall standings after they won their third match in succession when facing Ireland last time out. Saturday’s visitors will pose their biggest test of the competition so far, though; Warren Gatland’s men are also unbeaten but a point back after their opening-day draw with the men in green. It’s never an occasion to be missed when these two meet, and the iconic stadium...

England’s hopes of a 2016 RBS Six Nations Grand Slam lie on the line this Saturday when they welcome fierce rivals Wales back to Twickenham in a showdown that will most likely decide this year’s champion. It’s been almost six months since the Red Rose suffered a 28-25 home defeat to the Welsh at the 2015 World Cup, but coach Eddie Jones is at the helm now and hoping for a much-altered course of action, not to mention result. Wales coach Warren Gatland, on the other hand, is looking to lead Wales to back-to-back Twickenham victories over England for the first time since 1978, and...

All signs point to Round 4 of the 2016 RBS Six Nations being the most crucial as far as the title’s destination is concerned, with England set to defend their borders from a Welsh onslaught this Saturday. The travelling team will look to replicate the performance that saw them come away from Twickenham with a 28-25 victory when last the two sides met at the 2015 Rugby World Cup, but the Red Rose has grown new thorns. Elsewhere, defending champions Ireland will take on Italy in their attempt to finally get a win on the board before they relinquish their crown, while Scotland host France at...

Ireland’s crown has slipped this year. The back-to-back Six Nations champions have endured a draw and two defeats in their opening three games. It was not the rehabilitation coach Joe Schmidt had in mind following their demolition at the hands of Argentina in the 2015 World Cup quarter-final. Injuries have played a part in their current predicament. Paul O’Connell is gone, Peter O’Mahony is out for the tournament and Sean O’Brien limped off in Paris, ending his involvement this year. Further knocks have waylaid other notable players as the men in green have struggled to...
