Six Nations: How do England stop France and the GOAT Dupont?

from Rugby Union Weekly · host BBC Radio 5 Live

Is Antoine Dupont the greatest of all time? Chris and Ashy quiz England senior coach Richard Wigglesworth on what makes the French scrum-half so special. Are there any weaknesses in his game and what attributes make him so unique? England take on the favourites for the 2025 Six Nations at Twickenham this Saturday. What lessons have they learned from their defeat in Dublin? It's seven successive defeats in a row against tier one nations and Ashy says it's time to stop the rot, but how do you tackle a French side full of so much flair and confidence? Hooker Luke Cowan-Dickie is back on the pod to give following his first Test start since 2022. He gives us an insight into the intensity of training this week and the challenge of facing the French up front.
