Wallabies v England, All Blacks at Murrayfield & Rennie Wasn’t Happy | Nations Championship Preview

The Nations Championship kicks off up north this week, and World Cup winner Mike Tindall joins Jeremy Paul, Kieran Read and Justin Marshall to preview the Wallabies v England at Twickenham.

Tins tells JP his greatest asset is enthusiasm (“realism, not so much”), explains the pressure on Steve Borthwick and England’s yellow-card problem, gives his take on the high-scoring Prem and the driving maul, and asks whether the northern game really needs the Nations Championship. He also shares the story of JP’s season at Gloucester, where the questions to the forwards coach went on so long the session was over before anything physical happened.

Then the boys turn to the All Blacks: South Africa’s tough tour north, Scotland at Murrayfield (and whether they’ll go into their shell again), Wales 70 years without a win, and why Dave Rennie still wasn’t happy after 93 points in two Bledisloe tests.
