Re: England v Scotland
I would pick Watson ahead of Curry for lions on the strength of this - he’s a class above at 7 and a better carrier too

I'm quoting myself again, but the bold is important.Stom wrote:I think Itoje looks generally good. And George, too. Billy looks a little off it mentally and Farrell is...limited.16th man wrote:George, Billy and Itoje really look like players who haven't been in a pressurised game for a while.
Hope the plan was always to switch hookers early.
I'd like to see us make early changes. Especially in the half backs and at 8 (which isn't something I often say, Billy is so important to how we play usually, but he's just off it completely).
Also I agree on changing hookers early, too. More importantly, we need to keep the ball more, as the ref favours the attacking team. We can't just always kick, especially when the ref's decisions go against us so consistently, except during the part of the half we keep the ball...
Hmmm...I wonder what that means?
We'll probably start kicking away even more, if that's even possible.
COME ON! IT's so damn obvious.

Robson on and first interaction is somehow worse than anything Youngs did

If it means hastening the departure of Jones and his turgid brand of rugby sooner I’d be more than happy with a Scottish win this afternoon!
