The teams are out...finally

It's Wales, England, Ireland and Italy team news announcement day!

Sara Orchard is joined by two Chris' (that's Ashton and Jones) on this episode of the pod and the focus is all about two words..."team news". It's as Wales and England name their line-up's for a huge game on Saturday. Ashy and Sara take a look at the main headlines from the Wales team announcement, where Warren Gatland continues to blood in young players - with 20 year-old Mason Grady making his debut, replacing George North at centre.

They hear from prop, Gareth Thomas as he explains how the players are feeling ahead of that game, in what has been a turbulent week for those in a Welsh jersey. And there's a special interview with Warren Gatland as he chats to Matt Dawson about what this fixture means to him. Chris Jones gets the lowdown from the England camp as Steve Borthwick makes one change to his starting line-up - and pod favourite Jamie George chats to Chris about facing this Wales side and gives an insight into Warren Gatland's tactics. Not only that they discuss the changes that Ireland and Italy have made to their respective sides... and they couldn't end the pod without those pesky predictions!
