Six Nations Schedule 2024: Click here for Italy Rugby matches

Spoiler alert for rugby fans watching the Netflix show Six Nations: Full Contact:

The Italians became “wooden spoons” again in 2023.

However, despite Italy’s Six Nations struggles, the Italians have enjoyed some success in rugby recently.

After nine rounds of matches in the United Rugby Championship, Italian club Benetton Rugby are second in the table, just two points behind leaders Leinster Rugby.

Several Italian players, including Sebastian Negri, also play for Benetton, as the team looks to end its eight-year run as a “wooden spoon”. New Italian national team coach Gonzalo Quesada, who last managed Top 14 side Stade Français, took charge on New Year’s Day.

Here’s what Italy Rugby will look like when they play in the 2024 Six Nations.
