All these thrilling in their own ways, but England vs Argentina you can bet is going to be a spicy physical affair tonight. France set for another sweltering day, highs of 34C in Paris, a touch cooler in the south. So expect sweat, water breaks, and and people to ask if Georgia should join the 6 nations
Yeah, why have they started Sexton?
I guess they felt Romania was only a couple of steps up from a training match. I'm sure they were questioning the decision after he got that knee into the wrist after his first try but in the end it turned out to be a good decision.
Hasn’t played in about six and a half years so needs some easy game time to work out the kinks, I guess.
