Episode description

Ben, Charlie and Charles look back on round three of the Six Nations and get stuck into a second win for Steve Borthwick after England saw off Wales in Cardiff.

They discuss who impressed and who failed to live up to expectation. There is criticism for England captain Owen Farrell, who did not enjoy his finest afternoon in an England shirt. We ask if Borthwick has backed himself into a corner by naming Farrell as his skipper for the duration of the tournament and if there is scope to change the captain ahead of the World Cup later this year.

Elsewhere, there is praise for Scotland despite defeat away to France, which Gregor Townsend labelled their performance in Paris as their best of the competition so far.

And with Italy continuing to impress after a competitive showing against Ireland, we discuss if their long wait for a Six Nations win on home soil will finally come when they face Wales.
