Springboks selection talk turns toward Alexander's next decision

Springboks selection discussion around Alexander's next decision belongs in the wider South African squad-planning conversation. The important rugby question is whether the call affects depth, role clarity or the balance between established experience and players pushing for a bigger place in the next Test cycle. The next useful update should come from confirmed squad movement rather than promotional framing.

Ireland women finish Six Nations with Erin King at the centre of praise

Ireland's heavy Six Nations win over Scotland gives the women's programme a stronger finish to frame its next steps, with Erin King's performance drawing particular praise. The result matters because Ireland are still rebuilding consistency, depth and attacking confidence after a difficult period. The useful follow-up is whether standout individual form turns into a more stable selection core before the next international window.

Gallagher Premiership video watch highlights a story worth tracking

Northampton Saints against Leicester Tigers gives the Premiership playoff race another heavyweight selection test. At this stage of the season, team sheets matter almost as much as form because availability, rotation and tactical balance can decide who carries momentum into the final stretch. Saints need to protect their rhythm near the top of the table, while Leicester's route depends on turning rivalry intensity into cleaner execution, discipline and pressure at the set piece.

Junior Boks expose New Zealand's U20 gap

New Zealand's U20 defeat to the Junior Boks is a useful development marker because age-grade results often reveal where the next senior depth battles are forming. The key rugby question is why South Africa had the edge: physical pressure, set-piece accuracy, game management, or simply better execution in decisive moments. For New Zealand, the follow-up is whether the same gaps show up again or become fixable lessons before the next U20 window.

Fijian strike power keeps the international selection spotlight bright

Fijian player depth remains one of international rugby's most exciting storylines, with pace, offloading skill and one-on-one threat continuing to shape selection conversations. The useful angle is whether that attacking talent can be matched with enough structure, set-piece stability and squad availability to turn individual brilliance into consistent Test results. Fiji's next squad movements are worth tracking closely.

ITV has every England men’s international to 2029 Deal adds to Six Nations and Nations Championship ITV has agreed a deal for live rights to the 2027 men’s Rugby World Cup in a move that cements its position as the home of international rugby in the UK.

The commercial broadcaster has also bought live rights for every game of the 2026 and 2028 editions of the new Nations Championship , which begins on Saturday with six matches including New Zealand v France, Australia v Ireland and South Africa v England.
