Yeah,science

When an irresistible force meets an immovable object

What do a former Rose of Tralee and the Six Nations have in common? Well if you’ve ever been on Denny Street in the middle of August you might have a different idea to us, but for the moment it’s that both feature in another super RTE Six Nations promo.

No sign of Gandhi for this one but instead we get Dr Aoibhinn Ní Shúilleabháin,who explains all about the two massive forces that are set to collide at the Aviva today when Ireland host England.

The good doctor explains,through the use of the fine facilities at UCD, all about how today’s game will be decided by science and the physics behind the collisions and the skill we’ll be expecting to see.
