Stephen Jones returns and welcomes Alex Lowe from The Times, Sarah Mockford from Rugby World, former World Cup winner and man who works upstairs now, Michael Lynagh.

In a bumper episode the panel consider: the future of the Barbarians and the best use of the brand? Whether it's a cause for concern most of the England team is still unknown, if this autumn is a great chance to build the second tier for Eddie Jones?

Should Wales expect to beat Australia or have the latter turned a corner after their recent victory against the All Blacks?

Also has the quality of the French domestic rugby killed their international side, are we on the cusp of another Scottish revival and what would happen to The Sunday Times if Stephen wasn't there?
