The Six Nations is here with Finn Russell
About this episode
The Telegraph Rugby podcast is back ahead of the Six Nations! Over the next eight weeks, join the Telegraph's Ben Coles, Charlie Morgan and Charles Richardson every Monday as they discuss the main talking points from the tournament.
Ahead of Saturday's clash between England and Scotland, we catch up with Scotland star Finn Russell as he gives us his take on England, who he expects to line up opposite him at fly-half and why Scotland struggle to replicate their Calcutta Cup form across the entire Six Nations.
We also take a closer look at England ahead of Steve Borthwick's first campaign and who will line up in his backline in particular.
The guys also chat through Warren Gatland's first match since his return as Wales coach when they take on Ireland in the tournament opener.
Plus, we discuss the controversial decision made by the RFU to lower the tackling height at amateur level and hear the thoughts of London Irish head coach Les Kiss on the issue everyone is talking about.
Finn Russell spoke to the Telegraph Rugby Podcast in partnership with Puresport
