I don’t want to say too much because I always get a bit paranoid about jinxing our chances but I’m definitely pretty excited (where by pretty excited I mean super-psyched) about the Six Nations this year.

I think the schedule is good for us and although I don’t agree with leaving out Eoin Reddan I think the rest of the team for our opener is the right one and without a doubt BOD should be our captain.

Also interested to see how Bergamasco gets on at scrum half…
