    Apr 25 2024

    WRP 185 - Super Saturday. The final round of the 6 Nation is upon us with England going over to France for the Grand Slam game against France. Ireland take on Scotland in a fascinating contest in Belfast and Italy and Wales battle it out at The Principality stadium for the wooden spoon. Injuries Red Rose star Sarah Bern gives her incredible insight not only to the final round of games but also events last weekend. "Berner" was at Twickenham to witness another great occasion and tells us what it was like on "the other side." England's performance is spoken about and indeed Ireland's. Berner also looks back at the Wales, France game and the Scotland Italy match; she picks out where the games were won and the tactics used. New contracts in New Zealand's for 40 Black Ferns is chatted about and do these news stories about their fiercest rivals make a splash in camp. There is also a full preview of those final round games; can Scotland grab that World Cup spot and finish third, can Ireland bounce back mentally and physically from their Twickenham mauling? How do wales pick themselves up, will playing at The Principality help or hinder? And what is it like to play away in France, can that crowd make the different or are England too strong; what are we likely to see in selection and who will be the winners?
