England will play four back to back test matches in November and December 2010 at Twickenham Stadium against Australia, Samoa, South Africa and New Zealand.

RFU Business Operations Director, Paul Vaughan said "We're delighted to be welcoming all four teams to Twickenham Stadium including Samoa who will be playing here for the first time since 2005."
"The four test matches will show case players from all sides that are amongst the best in the world, which should provide a great and competitive spectacle for all the fans attending.

In 2009 England played three matches and beat Argentina but lost to Australia and New Zealand .

England have not won all of their November International matches since 2002.

Each test match will kick off at 2.30pm.

The test matches will be played in the following order;
Saturday November 13, England v Australia - kick off 2.30pm
Saturday November 20, England v Samoa - kick off 2.30pm
Saturday November 27, England v South Africa -kick off 2.30pm
Saturday December 4, England v New Zealand - kick off 2.30pm[/b]

Good luck to England! :huh:
 
Best case scenario:

England have a great 6 Nations, summer tour and so on. The team is settled and everyone is happy. England beat Australia, and still beat Samoa with a 2nd string. Then we beat South Africa and New Zealand. Then we get a 6N grand slam, beat 3N again in a summer tour and then win the world cup.

wait - it's not 2002. I forsee an autumn of miserable headlines, finger-pointing and Mike Catt being recalled.
