Can England afford to lose to Australia?

The Nations Championship is back! Danny, Ashy & Ugo preview England's must-win Test against Australia and debate whether Scotland can finally beat the All Blacks.

The southern hemisphere teams are in town as the Nations Championship resumes this weekend. Which of the home nations has the most to prove this autumn? Danny, Ashy and Ugo look ahead to a huge Test at Twickenham for Steve Borthwick’s England. Should Marcus Smith get the keys to number 10 against Australia? They also discuss the injuries at scrum-half and if England can develop an identity when wins are so important. Has New Zealand’s resurgence come at the worst possible time to end their All Blacks hoodoo? We also reflect on the Prem and Leicester’s flying start.
