Six Nations Round 2 with guest Shane Williams

Evening Standard Rugby Podcast with Lawrence Dallaglio

Lawrence is joined by former Wales player, Shane Williams, who holds the record as top try scorer for his country, and Evening Standard rugby correspondent, Nick Purewal.

Lol, Shane and Nick analyse Round 2 of the Six Nations and discuss England’s progress, the pros and cons of the blitz defence, what’s making Ireland so unstoppable and whether or not there should be any fallow weeks in the Six Nations championship.

Shane also recalls his time being coached by Warren Gatland and Shaun Edwards, shares which player performances from the Wales team have impressed him so far and predicts how he thinks Wales will fare over the next few games.

Plus, they share their views on which aspects of the game have become boring for spectators, whether the way TMOs are involved in decisions should change and Nick shares more information on the new mouthguards being worn by players that can alert the need for an HIA.

And with a five out of six success rate so far, the QBE Predictor delivers its forecast for the winners of Round 3.

In partnership with QBE Business Insurance and Voxpod Studios.
