Not losing leads where we're up 20 at half time and not seemingly borderline reliant on our big carriers. The results are fair enough of them, but the manner is very disappointing.

And that probably isn't going to improve while the heart and brain of the side are petulant and brainfree.

I don't see there's any chance now of relying on playing any rugby, so unless the opposition drop lots of our kicks we're entirely reliant on our carriers. We possibly had 1-2 too many carriers against Italy but we don't want to veer much from that model, there's no point

It is not a retrospectoscope the England teams needs, but a colonoscope (lest I am accused of bias, the Ireland team needs one too.)

This a blatant plagiarism. You’ll be hearing from my lawyers.

Slade made 12 clean breaks in this years Championship. 5th highest in the history of the 6Nations.

And he didn’t even start against Italy.

Saw that too. I was really sure what to make of his tournament. Feels like he missed a lot of tackles, but also he often did quite well with a bit of a mess out wide??? I’ve not quite worked it out.

I failed to mention Farrell there so it’s great to see a player who can actually run at the same time as deliver a pass, given we seemingly don’t want one at 10.
