Fresh on the back of some excellent displays by the Northern Hemisphere in the Autumn Internationals the date is now in for the resumption of one of the best tournaments on the planet - 3rd February 2018. So put it in the diary now. Under a brand new title sponsor the Six Nation will see a return of the rebranded Natwest Six Nations. The tournament will run between the 3rd February 2018 to the climactic weekend on the 17th March. The full schedule of fixtures, which will be co-shown by the BBC and ITV,  have all been announced and can be found below.

We have previously shown how sport pubs sell on average an additional 31 pints per game day during the 6 Nations. So all operators, whether they are massive sport pubs or only show terrestrial sport, should be looking forward to another bumper Six Nations.

Wales will open the campaign at the Millenium stadium against the sharp looking Scotland team. Ireland will travel to France in the second game of opening Saturday, with England waiting until Sunday to begin their quest for a third title on the bounce against the struggling Italians.
