About this episode

Owen Slot welcomes Michael Lynagh, Adam Hathaway and Stephen Jones to discuss another thrilling weekend of internationals.  


The panel exalt Ireland's superb performance and unpack where the All Blacks go from here with Adam contrasting certainty with the Irish starting line up against the question marks against almost every English position. 


Owen and Stephen disagree whether England have made any progress since they "fell off a cliff" earlier in the year.


Also Michael assesses Australia's horror season and why a good performance against England is key before the panel pick their 'God of the week'.
