Six Nations: Inside England with Ford & Heyes

from Rugby Union Weekly · host BBC Radio 5 Live

Ugo and Chris are inside the England camp with in-form fly-half George Ford and history buff Joe Heyes ahead of this weekend's Calcutta Cup showdown at Murrayfield. We hear all about Ford's love of Pilates and how it's helping improve his game. He also breaks down his crossfield kick to Henry Arundell at the weekend and explains how his rugby league education is still paying dividends at Test level. Heyes talks passionately about the art of scrummaging and what he would like to see instead of in-play adverts when he is packing down. Ugo and Chris also dissect some of Borthwick's key selection calls ahead of the trip to Edinburgh with Marcus Smith dropping out of the 23. How does Borthwick plan to cover 15 without the Quins playmaker in his squad?
