Summary
We're back on the couch this week and it's a doozie; France vs. Ireland, the long awaited 6Nations home opener and a pair of Americans who probably care a little too much. Jones is doing his best to resist the allure of the French, Tocco is making wild claims about English rugby with the confidence of a man who believes he's never been wrong once in his life. Dupont comes out of the sheds and does literally everything while somehow having time to be that good looking. Bielle-Biarrey remains Swiss until proven otherwise, ITV's scrum commercials get a public shaming and we finally find out what a BlueRev is. We've got lineouts arriving exactly on time, scrums collapsing to a Culture Club soundtrack in our heads and the Smith vs. Dupont debate getting out of hand. This is rugby as you've always known it. On the couch, with your mates, beer in hand, and opinions overstated. Wrong Side of the Ruck. Pull up a stool, we're glad you're here with us.
