According to a report in the Daily Mail, South Africa are exploring the possibility of joining an expanded Six Nations in 2024.

The report claims that under the proposals the Southern Hemisphere nation would join in 2024, turning it into a seven-team tournament with Italy retaining their place.

Alan Lewis is a former referee, who has refereed the Six Nations, and Brent Pope is a pundit and former player, and they joined Ivan to discuss whether it is realistic.
