Good points. I remember wondering why England didn't push their great young back rowers into the team and also why Jones seemed to completely ignore Chiefs players when they were the best english team around.
Jones plugged away with the same players, even when they were woefully out of form. Also the Saracens gang when they’d been relegated and basically ignored development during that period. Now you look at who’s on the pitch right now and there’s too many past their prime, say Johnny May, because we haven’t developed the likes of Arrandul and Radwan.

Unless something strange happens, England could be demolished by any of the top 5 team they may have to face.

That yellow card was incredibly harsh imo. Samoa deserved better.

Can't see it happening but If Ireland ended up beating SA and then losing to Scotland by 8+ points then I think we are cursed as a sporting nation and the squad would never recover from it

Saying that, Ireland by 7 points

Ah if Scotland find a way to win you'd have to say fair play to them.
If Scotland win they’ll be a bigger meltdown than the Israel Palestine thread :lol:

Thank feck United turned it around or the caf would be a wasteland
