Why have England finally gone for the Faz/Teo/Jj line and then decided to play stick it up your jumper? This would never happen is Robson was at 9...

Seeing Care suddenly start to make mistakes knowing it would only be a matter of minutes before Wigglesworth entered the fray is heartbreaking for any England supporter

Wiggles showing why he was always the wrong choice for the bench. Time to ditch that experiment, did he give one decent pass to his club FH?

Now watch Robson have a shocker to give Eddie a reason to keep it that way.

Yup, and yup.

He fully deserves his plaudits today, and deserves MotM today, possibly for the first time in an England shirt.
What makes it even harder is handing over to SCW in the studio...

That's due tomorrow isn't it?

Robson, Vellacott, hell, even Cook, Simpson or whoever's fit-but-not-playing of Maunder/Townsend

I didn’t look at the RFU website, but I assume under Finishers it read 21. Wigglesworth (enforced replacement)

Still threw a left to right to the grass, though.
Most importantly, he offered a running threat and Ford suddenly had a lot more space.

Agree. Hence my switching over to the pointless Celebrity Pointless on the beeb.

Was that Itoje's worst game? If Hughes is fit, I'd move Lawes to partner Launchbjry.

As EJ said - arm wrestle, and we are getting good at winning them!

Also, 6 day turn around plus a day travel

I think there’s lots to look at going forward, but I’m happy with another win!

Farrell fantastic.
Ford with lots of time for most of the game.
Underhill’s tackle was world class
Wigglesworth - UGH!!!
Brown did everything asked of him

With all the talk of the TMO decision - turn that penalty into a try, and Wales lose by 4

Itoje is still involved in lots of things - but he looked the worst lock on the field today - I’m not worried about him starting, but I’d still change our backrow if we have fit players!

England lucky to beat an injury decimated Wales. Needed the TMO to gift it to them.

Hughes benches for Wasps tomorrow, next week is anrest week for the 6N.
Assuming he doesn't relapse, he'll be good to go. 6.Robshaw, 7.Simmonds/Underhill, 8.Hughes
