Joey Carbery made his first ever Six Nations start against France, a full 6 years into his international career. Today we talk to him about dealing with pressure, away games, the French defence and that Mack Hansen try in Paris.

Shane Horgan and Johnnie Beattie discuss Carbery’s career to date, why he should start against Italy, why Italy should remain in the 6N, muddled Eddie Jones and how Scotland can do us all a favour against France this weekend.

As Europe stares down the barrel of its biggest conflict since the Balkans, Ken tells us why Putin is talking about the 9th century, and whether UEFA should consider moving this year’s Champions League final out of St Petersburg.
We also consider what team would offer your regular 5-a-side player the best chance to score a goal if you were guaranteed a starting berth for 38 games of a Premier League season.
I tried to run through what Putin could do next on Ukraine. It ranges from grim to extremely grim reading.@Stanovaya made my hair stand on end when she said: “The goal is to end Ukraine’s existence in its current form. No Ukraine — no problem.”https://t.co/iY1UouPgKA

If City have won 19 out of 22, why does it suddenly feel like they are under pressure? And is the best yet to come from Harry Kane?
