Test rugby is back on the menu - and so is Whistle Watch.

Former international referee Nigel Owens and the 94-capped Welsh midfielder Jamie Roberts settle in to discuss all the curious and contentious refereeing decisions from across the opening round of the 2026 Six Nations Championship.

Did England prop Ellis Genge deserve more than just a penalty for some foul play at Twickenham? Is it possible to penalised twice for one action? And Nigel and Jamie look at the one-two punch punishment handed out to Taine Plumtree's Wales.
