Six Nations fun to watch every year. England-Wales coming up in 2 hours.

New Zealand isn’t in this particular tournament.

Ireland fielding a squad of the whole island…the Republic and the North.

What is the Netflix series?

I've been watching the 6 Nations rugby competition for 20 years.

This tournament is one reason I have Peacock, the only streaming service I have. Bargain at $3.99 per month. Peacock is great. Crisp video. Nice commentary. If I miss a game, which is most of the time, the replay is available. In addition, Peacock provides 15 minute highlight videos of each game, which are helpful if I don't want to watch the full 2 hours.

Back in the day, the only place to watch 6 nations rugby in New Jersey was at Mulligan's in Hoboken. $20 cover + $10 for 2 beers + $10 for cab home = $40 per game. I get Peacock for a year for less than that.

I played several seasons of rugby at Rutgers. The sport has struggled to attract players and fans in the US.

Wow.

My view is the ball touched the ground, maybe just the top of the grass, but the rule says "conclusive evidence" must exist in order to overturn the on-the-field call, so I support the decision.

I have never seen an ending like that in any sport.
