The Six Nations is back! And so is the Telegraph Rugby podcast.

Join Alan, Charles and Gav for a comprehensive look ahead to the opening round of games this weekend and to the tournament as a whole.

We check in with the Telegraph's Dan Schofield out in Girona for the England training camp, with Tommy Freeman moving to outside centre and Henry Arundell an exciting blur on the wing. He tells us why Steve Borthwick is opting for pace over power ahead of the tournament.

Gav tells us how an injury hit Ireland are shaping up ahead of the tournament's curtain raiser against France on Thursday.

And Alan has a bone to pick with Gavin after he refused to pick any Scotland players in his top 30 Six Nations players of all time!

That's it for the Autumn Nations Series and England have had a perfect month, ending the year on a high with 11 wins in a row!

Join Alan, Charlie, Charles and Gavin for all the fallout to England's win over Argentina and a look ahead to what we can expect from Steve Borthwick's side in the Six Nations next year.

Max Ojomoh was the star of the show at the weekend. The Bath centre was named player of the match after coming in as a late replacement for Fraser Dingwall and the panel is split on whether or not he should be the starting centre for the Six Nations opener.

Elsewhere, there is high praise for Borthwick and the improvement we have seen in England in the last 12 months.

Away from England, Gavin gives us his account of a chaotic Test match in Dublin where South Africa bullied Ireland.

We also take a look at the World Rugby awards and ask just how far ahead the Springboks are of any other side in international rugby currently.

England now have 10 consecutive wins under Steve Borthwick after beating the All Blacks at Twickenham!

Join Alan, Gavin, Charlie and Charles for all the fallout to Saturday's win, which was arguably the finest since Borthwick took charge.

There is high praise for George Ford after he delivered a player of the match performance. We discuss what he offers this England side and if he is the undoubted first choice at number 10 for the foreseeable future.

Away from England, it was a weekend to forget for Scotland. They threw away a 21-point lead at home to Argentina and were booed off by their own fans. Has Gregor Townsend taken them as far as he can?

We also take a look at the rest of the weekend's action including a return to form for Ireland ahead of their clash with the Springboks and a first win for Steve Tandy since taking charge of Wales.
