Scotland’s Six Nations 2025 campaign kicks off on Saturday against Italy. Before the whistle blows, you can make the most of The Scotsman’s expert rugby coverage with our championship special offer: three months digital subscription at half the price, plus a year’s access to The Athletic.

For less than the price of a coffee a week, you’ll have access to:

• Our complete coverage of Six Nations 
• A year of The New York Times News, The Athletic, Wirecutter, Games, Audio and Cooking
• Ad-free articles
• Daily premium content from The Scotsman
• The Scotsman app and website

Availability is limited however, so don’t miss out.

After a disappointing result in 2024, Gregor Townsend’s men have an opportunity to respond immediately against the team that proved a stumbling block in Rome last year. With a more favourable number of home matches this year, Scotland have every chance to improve their standing.

Subscribing to The Scotsman helps support independent, honest journalism that keeps the stories that matter most in focus.

Best wishes,

The team at The Scotsman
