Scotland aiming to match their best winning streak in this fixture since there were “penny-farthings on the side” according to Ashy, or just the 1890s. Is the amount of chat about England’s new blitz defence disproportionate? And how will Finn Russell look to counter it having struggled against South Africa at the World Cup?England captain Jamie George is also on the pod, speaking with real poise about the death of his mother last week and how emotional the occasion will be for him and his family.And finally, Ashy reveals he thinks haggis is a vegetable.
