Wales will prepare for best of Ireland

Joe Hawkins looks dejected after Wales' defeat to France in the 2026 Six Nations

Ireland began the tournament with the two underwhelming performances in losing heavily away to France and squeezing past Italy at home.

But Andy Farrell's side showed the ruthless edge that made them Six Nations champions in 2023 and 2024 by claiming a record 42-21 win over England at Allianz Stadium last weekend.

The victory kept alive Ireland's title hopes and has made Welsh hopes of ending their three-year wait for a Six Nations win in Dublin on Friday night a whole lot harder.

"You can't think what Ireland team's going to turn up," said Wales centre Hawkins.

No escaping your fitter enemy

EVERY new show needs a great opening. Something to forcefully grab the viewer's attention and maintain that vice-like grip for the next hour or so. The producers of Handcuffed: Last Pair Standing must have been rubbing their hands with glee when they saw the rough cut of this first episode: a glimpse of the countryside, a nice burst of birdsong, sounds of a man and a woman laughing and then... two people naked in a shower. Goodness me, and it's only just past the watershed too.
