Summary

Ugo Monye and Chris Jones chat to all the Six Nations captains, but put the rugby to one side and ask the really important questions, like what’s harder – a nine-darter, a 147 or a hole-in-one? You’ll also hear Antoine Dupont sing. Find out how to pronounce Jac Morgan’s name. What position Rory Darge dreams of playing for Liverpool. The greatest sporting achievement in the world, according to Maro Itoje. The one trophy Caelan Doris would love to win as captain and Michele Lamaro tries to convince us that Lazio aren't a real team.
