Glaws v Bris, Friday night

[Tigersman]

Oh and to put the Polledri for England thing to bed, He qualified for Italy via the U-20's in 2014. The Italian U-20 side at that time were the qualifying team for International recognition. Jones couldn't have done anything about it even if he wanted to (and joined us in 2015 AFTER Jake had made his bed anyway)

I thought it was the Italian A team (Or emerging Italian team) that has been their second team for quite some time now.

You referring to Ludlow? I don’t get the impression he’s just mopping up around the fringes, he seems to really get about and throw himself into tackles.

He's not just mopping up the fringes, but I'm equally not impressed by high tackle counts. I do think he's rather handy though, just not sure that he'd be the final piece in the puzzle for best backrow unit.

And it'd depend who they'd played. Further I don't know England have missed out on much, he's decent, but it's not a skill set we're lacking

He is a quality player I said at the time we were missing out but many didn't rate him.

I'm not sure he even makes an EPS squad never mind a match day squad
