    A painful evening for Sarries tonight. Not good at all.

    Billy Vunipola is likely to miss the entire Six Nations with a fractured forearm.

    Just as he'd recovered from a knee injury. And while England have a couple of up-and-coming Number 8's, Billy is world class, and will be missed.

    Eddie Jones will announce his squad later this week.

    Expect to see Simmonds given the 8 shirt with Harrison also a possibility. Such a shame Ruan Ackerman isn't eligible or that Jake Polledri has been called up to the Italy training squad.

    Sam Simmonds had a good game for Exeter at the weekend, with Eddie Jones watching on. As did Ollie Woodburn, who has been overlooked by England for too long.

    Contrats for France on winning (at home).

    It’s interesting. A generation that promises a lot in both teams.

    Contrats. To Ireland for winning their test series against Australia.

    Well done England for finally winning a game in SA - only the 3rd in history.

    Respect to NZ for putting France to the sword.

    Indeed. The Pumas were woeful, England stopped the rot in style and Ireland were brilliant.
    France were outplayed in second half by the amazing speed NZ can produce during 80 minutes. But despite the score there are, as incredible as it may seem, some positives to keep.
    Japan isn’t a done deal, though
