Ben Youngs and Tom Fordyce return to review England’s dramatic win over Ireland at Twickenham. Albeit a bit late after some epic celebrations.
Ben breaks down the final play in minute detail including what Ireland should have done to kill the game, and there's a triumphant voice note from the victorious Dan Cole.
They also discuss Italy's first home win since 2013 as they put relegation chats to bed, and surprisingly, there's some sympathy for Wales. But what will happen on the final weekend?

How England Beat Ireland | Six Nations Round Four Review

Who doesn't love rugby?
No man has played for England more than Ben Youngs. He’s also a scrum-half so he’s spent most of his 127 games chatting away to team-mates, opposition and referees. His mate Dan Cole also has over 100 caps, is still in the England squad, and has cult hero status thanks to his no-nonsense approach to most of life’s events.
They’ve spent 20 years together at Leicester Tigers, toured together for the British and Irish Lions, and now podcast together every week. Throughout the Six Nations they’ll bring their ultimate guide to the championship, give you a behind the scenes tour of Twickenham, and tell you what really happens inside an England camp.
They’ll occasionally have guests, and special correspondent Joe Marler will be on speed dial for whenever they need him.

Try-scoring hero Dan Cole counts down the top 10 tries of his career so far, but was one of them really from 50 yards out? At the end of the longest season, Ben Youngs recalls his pre-season sessions that took place nearly a year ago, there’s a discussion about how Gloucester players will be feeling this week after losing by 90 points, and the revelation that Dan’s children would rather go camping than do a lap of the pitch after his final home game of the campaign. 


Did Coley score from 50 yards? And who finishes top four?

Siya Kolisi: The mindset of a World Cup winning captain

Who are the best club sides you’ve ever seen? Ben Youngs and Dan Cole, as rugby historians, count down the top 10 teams of their rugby lives. They’re allowed to pick any side from the year 2000 onwards. 

Agree, or disagree, let them know your thoughts.

Won’t somebody think of the hookers! Ben Youngs and Dan Cole have uncovered an injustice as Premiership hookers really aren’t paid enough. They analyse Premiership Rugby’s salary cap report, imagine Mike Brown’s presentation on rugby values, ask how tall a back row needs to be and answer more of your best questions. Plus Ben is dressed up, but not for Dan’s birthday.

Why are scrum-halves paid less?

Leinster and Toulouse set up a dream Champions Cup final as Northampton and Harlequins both regret their first half performances on semi-final weekend. Ben Youngs and Dan Cole watched all the action for you, and had time to cut the grass and play bank holiday mini-golf. Plus Ben introduces us to Toby, his pet tortoise, who definitely isn’t massive, and might not even be called Toby for much longer.
