Six Nations Rugby and TikTok might have just announced a new landmark partnership – but the pair have been making magic happen for years already.
The Guinness Six Nations account is one of the most popular on Tiktok, bringing the biggest moments and funniest takes straight to 70,000 followers.
So, a day after TikTok was announced as an Official Partner of the Guinness Six Nations and Autumn Nations Series through to 2025, and the Title Partner of the Women’s Six Nations, here are some of our favourites.
1. ‘Bougie Jenkins’
You’d be a brave soul to call legendary Wales fly-half Neil Jenkins ‘bougie’ but we have to admit, using sand as a kicking tee is incredibly cool.
@sixnationsrugby only the finest sand from Welsh beaches 🏴 #sixnationsrugby #guinnesssixnations #rugbyunion #welshrugby #sports
2. Learning the rules!
Who can forget the day when Italy totally flummoxed England in the first half of their 2017 Championship encounter?
The Azzurri decided not to form a ruck after making a successful tackle, thus removing the concept of offside.
The bold move caught England off-guard and James Haskell and Dylan Hartley even went as far as querying the rules, producing this classic moment.
@sixnationsrugby Haskell should have brushed up on the rule book before this game. 📖#englandrugby #guinnesssixnations #sixnationsrugby #rugbyunion #rugby #sports
3. Picture perfect from Jonny
Is there anything more perfect than a Jonny Wilkinson drop goal?
No?
We thought not.
@sixnationsrugby Jonny. Freakin. Wilkinson. #rugbyunion #guinnesssixnations #englandrugby #rugby #sports
4. Beast Mode BOD
Ireland fans would argue Brian O’Driscoll in full Beast Mode comes close and, we have to admit, BOD was unstoppable at his brilliant best.
@sixnationsrugby Who better? ☘️ #irishrugby #rugbyunion #sports #rugby #beastmode
5. Three pounds of….haggis?!
Nope, we’ve never kicked three pounds of haggis either.
Here’s the legendary Bill McLaren, delivering a typically brilliant piece of commentary.
@sixnationsrugby they do not commentate sports like the used to. #rugbyunion #guinnesssixnations #irishrugby #sports
6. Christopheeeerr
It wouldn’t a true TikTok channel without a dash of Nigel Owens, so here is the great man impersonating Chris Robshaw’s parents by using the flanker’s full name to tell him off.
Terrific stuff, Nigel!
@sixnationsrugby Don’t cross Nigel Owens: #rugbyunion #englandrugby #guinnesssixnations #referee #sports
