Could someone explain what needs to happen next week for Ireland to win the 6Ns?

Scotland needs to beat England, and Ireland beat Wales.

Not that it will matter but what happens if England don't get the bonus point and Ireland beat Wales by 65 points more than England beat Scotland. Does it go to head to head or points difference?

Keep it real and just ask what's the tiebreaker when two or more teams are tied on points.
Answer is points difference.

Henderson has been immense!

Getting very good at ripping the ball out in the tackle is our Iain.

Answer is points difference.

Could Wales win the every game (Grand Slam) and not win the championship?
