The maverick.
The wait is finally over. Six Nations: Full Contact the brand new Netflix documentary has finally landed on the streaming platform and it’s as good as we hoped.
The series follows the 2023 edition of rugby’s greatest championship and goes behind the scenes like never before in an exclusive eight-part series.
The first episode closely follows Scotland playmaker Finn Russell and a clip has surfaced online of the 31-year-old describing himself to those unfamiliar with him who might be tuning into rugby for the first time.
“I’m Finn Russell, number 10 for Scotland rugby team,” Russell says.
“Some people might say I’m good to watch.
“If you’re a football fan – you might say like [Lionel] Messi or something like that.”
What a legend. Never change, Finn. Never change.
