Scotland retain the Calcutta Cup

About this episode

The 2022 Six Nations is underway and the opening weekend has well and truly delivered! Joining Brian to recap the action is former England captain Chris Robshaw.

They reflect on a tense game in Murrayfield which saw Scotland stage a late comeback to ensure they retained the Calcutta Cup for the first time since 1984. We break down the game in detail with the Telegraph's Charlie Morgan who analyses just how Gregor Townsend masterminded the win for his side.

Elsewhere Ireland made light work of Wales in Dublin. Next up for them is a trip to Paris to take on France who themselves picked up a bonus point by beating Italy. Chris reckons the Irish will be too strong for tournament favourites, France in that one.

Plus we discuss how England should line up against Italy. If Tuilagi is fit, should he play? And we get the lowdown on life in America for Chris since leaving Quins.
