Summary
We're down to just two rounds in the 2022 Six Nations and France remain the only side with a 100% record.
Joining Brian to recap the weekend's action is former England and London Irish winger Topsy Ojo. The pair get stuck into the match at Twickenham between England and Wales and why exactly so much time was wasted at the scrum. We also get Brian's perspective of attending as a fan rather than a member of the media! Charlie Morgan was watching for the Telegraph, he joins the guys to unpack what was an uninspiring win for England.
Elsewhere France maintained their 100% record with a comfortable win over Scotland. Gregor Townsend labelled his opponents as the best in the world following the win but for Scotland it's now back to back defeats after a promising start. We speak with the former Scotland centre Scott Hastings about what needs to be done for he Scots to kick onto the next level.
We also get stuck into a farcical match in Dublin between Ireland and Italy which resulted in Ireland having a two man advantage for the majority.

| 0:04.3 | Hello and welcome to Brian Moes for contact with the Telegraph. |
| 0:23.9 | England remain with a chance of lifting this year Six Nations after a narrow win over the old rivals Wales. |
| 0:30.6 | The visited out scored England by three tries to one, but were unable to claw their way back into the game, |
| 0:36.3 | having gone 17-0 down early in the second half. |
| 0:39.8 | They just run out of time. |
| 0:41.7 | Despite the win, it was far from vintage performance from Eddie Jones' side. |
| 0:46.0 | We looked a little flat in attack at times. |
| 0:48.6 | We will unpack the game in detail with the Telegas Charlie Morgan and my co-host today, |
| 0:53.8 | the former England and |
| 0:55.0 | London Irish winger Topsie Ojo. Scotland's faint hopes of mounting a challenge for the Six Nations |
| 0:59.8 | were well and truly put to bed by, while it was a scintillating performance from France |
| 1:05.9 | on Saturday. The tournament favourites left Murrayfield with a bonus point win and laid down |
| 1:10.4 | a serious |
| 1:11.1 | marker to the rest of the competition and indeed the rest of the rugby world ahead of the |
| 1:15.5 | World Cup next year. As for Scotland, well it was another campaign that promised so much |
| 1:20.5 | but failed to deliver. Gregor Townsend said they've a lot to learn following defeat and |
| 1:26.1 | we will ask the former Scotland said |
| 1:27.8 | to Scott Hitting, what exactly it is it that they need to learn? Because surely they know |
| 1:33.2 | by now. Elsewhere, we will recap the farce. Well, it was a bit of a farce, wasn't it? Between |
| 1:39.4 | Ireland and Italy, at the Aviva, where it was 15 down down to 13 for the majority of the afternoon. |
| 1:46.3 | We'll discuss if stoppages in the game are ruining the matchday experience and we'll be answering your questions as always too. |
