It’s almost time.

The 2018 Six Nations finally kicks off today with two absolutely mouth-watering clashes. Up first we’ve got Wales hosting Scotland at the Principality, before France welcome Ireland to Paris in the late kick-off.

Sunday sees Conor O’Shea’s Italy welcome holders England to Rome, with the latter favourites to win an unprecedented third title in-a-row under Eddie Jones.

TV3 have taken over broadcast rights in Ireland on a multi-year deal, after beating off competition from RTÉ, who have become famous over the years for their incredible promos.

The new kids on the block have come up with something special themselves though, and while it’s not quite what we’re used it, it’s pretty damn good.

Sit back, relax and get ready. The Six Nations is almost upon us.
