Six Nations - All-Time XV
In a move not entirely lacking in self indulgence, Jack and Ben discuss, debate and select their all-time Six Nations XV from 26 years of the competition's history.
Tune in to find the answers to the real big questions:
Can two Englishmen bear to leave Martin Johnson on the bench?
Which Jonny starts at fly half?
How can Ben's heart really be telling him to leave Brian O’Driscoll out of the team?
And how many Welshmen can they nearly pick but still end up leaving out?
For all these answers and more join us - and as a bonus debate to finish, we ask who has the best national anthem in the tournament as well (spoiler: it's not England).
