Pearson is in great form. He really has pretty much everything you'd want from an international forward.
Really enjoyed Haffar's try. Great seeing a prop canter in from 20 odd yards.

Borthwick had restrictions on who he could name in the team and still does. If England had a backrow injury he could call up Pearson otherwise Pearson can't be brought in until the summer though he might be glad not to be associated with the result at the weekend.
It'll never happen for a variety of reason, but Borthwick CAN pick whoever he likes for an actual match-day, he just won't pick from outside the EPS, as he won't get access for training sessions etc;m not to mention the "people skills" of doing that, and the kick in the teeth to the clubs.

To be fair I don't think he's top of Borthwicks shopping list either way. He went with B Curry for the 6N who wouldn't have been in the original EPS.
