Re: Eng's back three Issues

I have no doubt that SL will select the tried and tested back 3 combination of Goode, Ashton & Brown against Wales. If Eng win, great we will forgive SL's lack of ambition, but if Eng lose on Sat the Eng Coach will get slaughtered and rightly so. I have a feeling that Mr North and Mr Cuthbert wi...

Re: Eng's back three Issues

I don't believe Tait has lost any pace since since his latest injury. Tait lost a yard between the B Ashton & M Johnson regimes. At this moment in time I have to agree that Tait does not merit selection, but if certain aspects of his game improve during the run in against some top teams then he ...

Re: Eng's back three Issues

It is very disappointing to find Eng in a position where you wonder where the next try is coming from after the exploits against Scotland. I can't believe how little game time 12T has been given after that first starting performance. I actually had 12T on my lions short list after that first game. I...

Eng's back three Issues

Many people have commented on Eng's lack of speed across the backline during this years six nations. The current back three combination lacks speed, toughness, and most of all confidence. This is my take on three who are likely to be given another chance in the deciding game against Wales. 15. A Goo...

Re: Croft for England?

I can't believe there are people advocating that Croft be selected ahead of Wood. IMHO Wood has been the outstanding back row performer & not the captain during the six nations. Wood is a certain starter against Italy, whether that be at 6 or 8 will depend on Morgan's fitness. Morgan unavailable...

Re: Tigers vs. Sale

The result puts Leicester back in the mix. Now there is the small matter of two massive away games against two very good teams. A minimum of 5 points is required.

Incidently, how did the back three get on today aspecially Tait?

Re: Sale saving themselves for the LV semi next week?

"Looking at our team it's very disappointing that Geordie is out injured again after last week's masterclass!"

I agree to some extent. Geordie was pretty effective with ball in hand but in defence he was caught short.... Missed tackle for Saracens 2nd or 3rd try!
