Ronan O'Gara's team-by-team Six Nations guide

Ronan O'Gara rates the six teams vying for Six Nations glory this spring.

ENGLAND: The tournament favourites beyond doubt. I was in the ground in Japan to see them demolish the All Blacks in the RWC semi-final and it was the rugby performance of 2019. Ireland’s demise in Japan had the end of a cycle feeling to it, but England’s is not. Eddie Jones has freshened things up and though he has lost Billy Vunipola, the depth chart remains very strong. Forget the Saracens thing, it’s not an issue. All that ever takes is one good meeting. Playing for your country is bigger than anything.
