Brian Moore is joined by former Springbok captain Bob Skinstad to reflect on the year in rugby.
It was a year of two halves for England and Eddie Jones. After a disappointing fifth place finish in the Six Nations, the England head coach made wholesale changes for the Summer and Autumn series and went undefeated in both. The Telegraph's Ben Coles joins the show to review England's year and discuss where they are at ahead of the Six Nations in 2022.
Elsewhere we assess the state of play for the rest of the Northern Hemisphere sides and in particular France who have arguably ended the year as the number one side in the world.
We also look back on the British and Irish Lions Tour to South Africa and it's legacy after widespread criticism of how the tour was managed.
