The women's Six Nations kicks off on Saturday. This will be the first international tournament since England won the World Cup and thus it's the kickoff of a new cycle. England have made it clear that they are continuing to develop their style and are starting all over for this next cycle and the other 5 teams will be powered by renewed hope after a blockbuster tournament. This is a quick breakdown of each of the 6 sides going into what could be an historic Six Nations.

In the past week, the RFU and Prem Rugby have announced that promotion and relegation between the Prem and the Champ will be brought to an end. This is a move that had been rumoured to be happening for a while but its announcement came as a surprise to many. In truth, the game in England had been trending in this direction for a while and now we are here. It's a decision that will have ramifications throughout the game so I've taken a look at some potential positives and negatives from this momentous decision.

England 21 - 42 Ireland

Kickoff: 2:10pm, Saturday 21st February

This game was not quite a "must win" occasion but it wasn't far off for the Irish. Things looked gloomy once again in the first half which ended 12-5 to the Italians. Prendergast and Casey struggled as the half-backs and things were looking bad at the scrum. Despite this win, Andy Farrell will still have lots to think about.
