Autumn Tests

I’d like to think they would have, but then I wonder how much of their RWC success can be put down to the approach of saving all of their main players for the tournament.

Would they be as good without that continuity of training?

Old yes, I'm looking outside at a clear crisp morning and posting here rather than getting outside for a run. Though I'm about done with prevaricating

I wonder with everyone spending so much time at home with more limited horizons what the impact is on sporting ambition, does the frustration with normal life bleed over, or when it comes to the autumn tests will that little change of scenery for the players give a lift?
