You could have two back rows as Isiekwe could move up. Barbeary and DombrandStom wrote:Yeah, but that means Ewels on the bench…Banquo wrote:Don't think so. Prob Itoje, Launchbury, Isiekwe, Curry, Simmonds to start; looks alright.Stom wrote:That’s great news. We can get rid of Ewels.
I guess Lawes is fit, then?
No,thank you! Chessum's chance?Stom wrote:Yeah, but that means Ewels on the bench…Banquo wrote:Don't think so. Prob Itoje, Launchbury, Isiekwe, Curry, Simmonds to start; looks alright.Stom wrote:That’s great news. We can get rid of Ewels.

What, with both Simmonds and Dombrandt on a 6:2 bench again?p/d wrote:Is he flirting with Isiekwe and Pearson, with Curry back at 8. Launch grunt back in the engine room?
Agreed. Pearson is emulating Kenningham by coming from nowhere and immediately looking to the manor born. He reminds me of Dan Leavy (pre-injury).fivepointer wrote:Delighted for Pearson who i really like the look of.
Wonder if Fitz Harding is on the England radar?
He's fit and playing consistently well for Worcester.twitchy wrote:What happened to ted hill? Bad injury? He seems to have vanished from the england radar.

Jones lost interest in him after giving him 2 run outs as a sub.
Seriously good player who doesnt have any major weaknesses and has a lot going for him.
Beats me why he's been discarded.

He was fairly anonymous at the weekend. I think Eddie was interested when he played a couple of games at lock towards the end of last season. From memory he came off the bench to play lock in the summer for England.fivepointer wrote:He's fit and playing consistently well for Worcester.twitchy wrote:What happened to ted hill? Bad injury?

Bit surprised(or perhaps not:)) that Warriors didn’t play Kvesic at 7 and Ted Hill at 8 in this interim period. Would have thought Ted Hill would be a better fit at 8 if he wasn’t being selected in his preferred 6 role?FKAS wrote:He was fairly anonymous at the weekend.

Problem he has is that club mate Hatherall is having a storming season and plays pretty much the same position. Lawes is the preferred lock/6, Isiekwe seems to have come back into favour, Martin has been around squads and outplayed Hill fairly emphatically at the weekend (some huge hits) and now Chessum is in the squad and is a better lineout option.
He's good enough to get another go but probably needs to put in some performances that you just can't ignore.

You'd imagine it's a fitness thing for both of them. Although personally I think I'd rather have a half-fit Launch than a fully-fit Isiekwe.Banquo wrote:weird on launch and lawesfivepointer wrote:BREAKING: Alfie Barbeary, Jonny Hill, Joe Launchbury, Courtney Lawes, Tom Pearson, Mark Atkinson, Tommy Freeman, George Furbank, Raffi Quirke, Orlando Bailey, Ollie Hassell-Collins, Louis Lynagh and Luke Northmore released ahead of this weekend.

Just need some game time?

Randall must wonder if he's only good enough for a few minutes against Italy in Jones's eyes.Mikey Brown wrote:Just need some game time?

Has Randall played enough recently?
