Series 7 - Episode 18: England hammered by the Scots; France thump Wales; Ireland scrape past Italy; Glos-Hartpury overcome Kildunne's Quins and Gloucester are embarrassed at Sandy Park

A lot of rugby to get through this week. Some great, some good, some very indifferent! England travelled to Murrayfield with expectation but were thumped by a rampant Scotland. We chat through what went wrong and why Scotland seem to be a bogey team. Meanwhile as Ireland narrowly beat Italy courtesy of a TMO decision, Wales were comprehensively beaten by a French side brimming with confidence. Ed talks about his Cardiff experience and the worrying signs for the WRU.On the domestic front, Ellie Kildunne could do nothing to stop Gloucester Hartpury win another game, with Sisilia Tuipulotu and Maud Muir scoring two barnstorming tries. Unfortunately, Gloucester's men were humbled down at Exeter with an embarrassing 48-14 defeat, with the Chiefs scoring 34 unanswered points in the second half.Ed PriceJim HarleyCherry Jam is proud to be sponsored by PGT LLP
