You could be forgiven for thinking that the Northern hemisphere teams decided to play another Six Nations tournament in 2020, and added Georgia, perhaps on a trial basis. But no! 

The Autumn Nations Cup wasn’t just a measuring stick for international teams, but also a proving ground for players looking to either break into the national team or reestablish their place in it. For the four British Isles, it was also an audition for Warren Gatland’s 2021 British & Irish Lions team which heads to South Africa next summer. 

Now that it's over, it's all about the numbers.

If the first three rounds of the 2020 Autumn Nations Cup were labeled as slow, or too kick-heavy, the final weekend was anything but. 

It was supposed to be a cakewalk. It was supposed to be business as usual for Eddie Jones’ team in front of 2,000 spectators at Twickenham. 

Italy and Wales will face off for fifth place as they look to finish off their Autumn Nations Cup run with a win. 

Both teams had some decent showings in pool play. Ireland's lone loss came to championship contender England in the second round in a hard fought contest. They will look to finish out the Autumn Nations Cup on a good note with a win over Scotland.

England and France will be looking to stay flawless at the Autumn Nations Cup as they meet with the title on the on line. 

Round 3 was highlighted most by the efforts of the Georgians, who pushed Ireland for 80 minutes in Dublin. 

England has been rolling. 

The second weekend of Autumn Nations Cup action served up two of the most anticipated clashes of the tournament.

With the news that two players in and around the Eagles camp tested positive for coronavirus this week, the second Stars vs Stripes match was cancelled. 

During Friday’s scheduled screening, two Women’s XVs players tested positive for COVID-19. 

England is red hot coming off a title run at Six Nations and an absolute waxing of Georgia to the tune of a 40-0 shutout in its first Autumn Nations Cup game a week ago. 

Head Coach Rob Cain has announced a 49-player roster for the Women’s National Team XVs’ scrimmage series to happen November 18 and 21, KO 2 PM MT, at the Rugby Town National Training Center.
