    Just occurred to me - why isn't the women's 6N played as double headers along with the 6N? Seems like a waste, would it result in more of a loss for stadium fees for the unions than having to pay for the extra logistics?

    @Bones I think because double headers don't really work, not for the less popular code. Women's 6n actually does well, relatively

    @Bones

    There are already enough reasons for me not to go to Twickenham.

    Yeah it occurred to me now that the 6N gets sold out at pretty lofty prices anyway, so why bother upping that price for probably very little if any change in profit margin.

    I'd turn every men's Six Nations Saturday into a Super Saturday and play the Women's on the Sunday, under 21s on a Friday night.

    Means the travelling fans can use Sunday to get home and feel fresh for Monday I guess.

    @Bones The huge travelling support is definitely the thing that makes the 6 Nations such a unique tournament in global sport.

    Last year you were looking at SFA (Italy) up to 25k crowds, so worthwhile for their own match. England France 60k
