This year's Autumn Tests are set to be replaced by an eight-team tournament which will see the Six Nations sides joined by Japan and Fiji.Wales' game with Scotland, Ireland's trip to France, and England's match in Italy have been scheduled for 31 October after being postponed in March.Scotland's meeting with Wales appears more likely to be held at Twickenham than in Cardiff.
RFU chief executive Bill Sweeney said last month the union is planning for up to 40,000 fans to be able to attend the Twickenham Tests, pending governmental approval. England will face Wales, Ireland and Fiji in one group, with the latter two fixtures at Twickenham and the venue of the first game still to be decided.The tournament will be staged on four consecutive weekends until 5 December, with each team facing their equivalent in the other pool on that final weekend with the venue to be decided.It means Gregor Townsend's side's Autumn internationals against Argentina and New Zealand have been cancelled, while the one against Japan could be moved.
So on the presumption that the 2020/2021 premiership can't now start before the new year when might the 2021 six nations start and how may that + European Games etc be completed before the lionsofficial leaves ?
