Eddie Jones' side will play four fixtures, starting against South Africa on Nov. 12.

They will host Fiji on Nov. 19 and World Cup semi-finalists Argentina a week later, with the international season ending on Dec. 3 against new coach Jones's native Australia.

"It's great to be able to take on four such quality teams on back-to-back weekends," England full back Mike Brown told the RFU website, www.englandrugby.com. "It allows us to test ourselves against some high-calibre opposition."
