England end a difficult Autumn in style

Ben, Charlie and Charles are back for the final time this Autumn to reflect on a long overdue win for England. Steve Borthwick's side thrashed Japan 59-14 at Twickenham to pick up their first win of the month and left fans feeling a little more optimistic ahead of the Six Nations early next year. We discuss what's working and what isn't, particularly the defensive system which was once again exposed at the weekend Fin Smith impressed off the bench, is the Northampton fly half a contender to start in the Six Nations? Elsewhere we wrap up the best of the weekend's action as Scotland ended their series with a win over Australia and Wales misery continued with a heavy defeat to South Africa Plus we discuss the World Rugby awards and tackle all your questions as usual Hosted on Acast.

South Africa pile more misery on England

Ben, Charlie and Charles reflect on another disappointing afternoon for England at Twickenham as their winless run stretched to five following a defeat to South Africa. Was this latest defeat a result of bad tactics, or was it down to individual errors for the Springboks tries? They also address the fitness concerns after Steve Borthwick mentioned his side were not in the right condition when they arrived into camp a month ago. Elsewhere things are much worse for Wales, they were thrashed by Australia in Cardiff, a result that extends their winless run to 11. Warren Gatland says he will consider his future following the result, so we take a look at who could realistically replace him. Plus we get into the huge news surrounding a potential breakaway league for the games biggest stars and if any deal can be brokered. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Ellie Boatman: “When I got to my smallest I was at my most unhappiest”

In this episode from the Telegraph Women's Sport Podcast, we're delving into the topic of body image. Hosted by Dame Laura Kenny, we bring together three women to share their stories and insights. Ellie Boatman, a Great Britain rugby sevens player, opens up about her journey through body image struggles and overcoming an eating disorder to develop a healthier relationship with her body and food. She emphasises the influence of social media on body perceptions and the importance of education around its dangers. Amy Truesdale, an Paralympic taekwondo champion, speaks about her confidence in competing in a male-dominated sport despite her disability. She highlights the necessity of focusing on performance over aesthetics, celebrating individual differences, and rejecting societal pressures. Kate Dale, campaign director of "This Girl Can" at Sport England, brings her expertise in promoting women's participation in sports, discussing the need for positive reinforcement and conscious behaviour around diet culture and appearance. She champions the importance of understanding female physiology in training to shift focus from appearance to performance. If you have been affected by an eating disorder, contact the NHS or Beat for help. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Forward Pass Definition:

If the forward speed of the ball exceeds the forward speed of the player making the pass, then the pass is a forward pass. (Forward speed is the rate of progress longitudinally down the pitches length).
Do they even want to do this podcast?

This podcast gives every impression of being one that the Telegraph really isn’t invested in airing and the reporters aren’t really excited about appearing on. (They appear way too enthusiastic whenever they mention “this is the last pod of the season” or “this is our last pod from the World Cup.”)Maybe that’s why the pod episodes are so sporadic. During the World Cup, the pod panelists appeared more interested in sharing their travel stories while covering the event in France. The Telegraph should either commit to airing this podcast on a regular, predictable basis or stop doing it.
Great podcast, balanced opinion and awesome guests

Brian Moore is a sensible intelligent host and though he occasionally can’t wait to give his opinion, he usually does a great job of setting his guests up to have an interesting conversation. I could listen to Bob Skinstadt all day.
Great Show

Brain is a great host - bringing insight and depth to the conversation with a broad spectrum of guests - crossing codes, geos, players, coaches and fans! Glad to see that Brain has recovered from recent illness. This show goes from strength to strength. Recent episodes around the upcoming Lion’s tour of SA have been outstanding. Keep up the great work Brian and team. June ‘21
