The Six Nations 2024 begins tomorrow with France hosting Ireland in Marseille with plenty of change following the Rugby World Cup.
England have embraced evolution, without Owen Farrell and the now injured Marcus Smith, meaning Steve Borthwick has named a team to face Italy with an emphasis on the future, including debutants Ethan Roots and Fraser Dingwall.
Scotland and Wales, also looking to rebuild, have announced their teams for their head-to-head clash in Cardiff on Saturday.
