That’s a wrap on the 2026 Women’s Six Nations — and what a way to finish it.
31,294 people at the Aviva for a first ever standalone fixture. A heritage caps ceremony honouring 30 years of Irish women’s rugby. And Ireland putting in arguably their most complete performance of the tournament to send Scotland home empty-handed.
Chloe Pearse is back — cap 206, AIL Player of the Year, and now apparently the person most responsible for Beatrice Rigoni going missing from the Italian squad. We’re saying nothing.
We do a full tournament report card — England’s cracks, France’s rebuild, Italy’s rise, and the uncomfortable question of whether Wales and Scotland are being left behind. Cian has the numbers. Chloe has opinions. Ailbhe has ponchos, apparently, and a new nickname she didn’t ask for.
Roll on the interpros. Roll on WXV. Roll on Australia.
