With the Six Nations wrapped up and most of the key rugby now behind us, we can now take a closer look at the Lions contenders. Part one, the forwards.

With few truly world-class, and some certainly underwhelming, performances, this year’s tournament XV has an eclectic and somewhat unexpected look to it. Who made it? Read on to find out.
The final week in the tournament saw some outstanding individual efforts, particularly from the Italians and, of course, the Welsh. Also, for the first time there are no English players!
So the dust has settled on this year’s Six Nations tournament, and Wales saved their best for last, crushing England to retain their title as champions. On to the Lions!
As the Six Nations decider between Wales and England fast approaches, there are still some Lions jerseys up for grabs. Here are five matchups that will shape Warren Gatland’s team.
The tournament that never was? One that had promised so much only six weeks ago has been mired in damp weather and despairingly bland tactics. Will the final weekend deliver?
Nine articles and one video worth investigating, ranging from Ireland to Canada to Australia to Scotland. Bad weather, bad scrums, bad refereeing, potential Wallabies, potential Eagles, and life after rugby.
The two biggest risers from this week were fairly obvious, and predictable, but there were a couple cruel injury blows that could affect the final selection in eight weeks time.
Another slow week where a decent performance was enough to get noticed. The backs hardly saw the ball as the forwards were happy to just scrum and maul all day.
After a two week break the Six Nations returned on the weekend, but one would hardly notice given the lack of expansive rugby on offer. Maybe next week, we hope.
