Hello.

How are you?

Oh, I am glad that there was a bit of a break this year, Joe.

Last year, it went directly from the men's Six Nations into the women's Six Nations.

By the end of it, I was like, oh my goodness, I have done my Six Nations time.

So definitely the three weeks, I think, is really good.

But I actually asked somebody in the RFU about that recently.

And they said, look, there's no good time in the calendar.

It's so busy anyway.

So to try and find a spot, so they might as well just go.

And it's into the kind of nicer weather now as well.

Some of the players mentioned that today, that it was quite bammy in training.

And so it kind of filled into the feel good vibes, although their faces were so flushed because their training session today apparently was really, really intense.

So, yeah, I think it's, yeah, I think they're all set and ready to go now.

I know.

Could you imagine if you went into the women's Six Nations off the back of what we just had in the men's Six Nations?

I mean, I need to be laid up after the men's Six Nations.

So, you know, it's definitely good to have a bit of a break.

Look, there's no doubt that their trajectory remains upwards, but I do think the end of that Six Nations, you know, is something that would really get under their skin because they wanted those three away wins in last year's Six Nations and they just fell on the final day to a Scotland side who were so revved up.

So,
