Episode Notes

The Nations Championship returns this weekend!

Ahead of a bumper month of international rugby Alfie, Stuart and Charlie look ahead to all the action.

With Fin Smith potentially sidelined they ask who should start at fly-half for England against Australia? Despite their world ranking is there reason for Welsh positivity this Autumn? Plus, how much of an eye does each nation have on the world cup next year?

And, Mark Palmer joins the show to preview Scotland's match against the All Blacks. What chance does he give Gregor Townsend's side of getting a first victory over New Zealand?
