England Rugby Pod

We take a look at Jim Mallinder's England squad to face the Babas on Sunday but not before discussing the hidden messages in who was left out and of course taking a look back at the Premiership playoff semi's and what we expect from the final.

This week we're putting together the squad we'd like to see take on the Barbarians at Twickenham on the 2nd June 2019. It's a wish-list rather than a prediction, so we hope Eddie's listening.

To celebrate 2 years since we launched the pod and in our 122nd episode, we're taking a look at the all-time most capped England XV ever. Not the most capped team, but the most capped individuals across the record books to make up our hypothetical team. There's also news and views as always.
