So what do people reckon England’s injury free 23 is now? I’d go for: Vunipola Hartley Sinckler Itoje Kruis Shields Underhill Vunipola Youngs Farrell Te’o Joseph Daly May Watson George, Genge, Cole, Lawes, Wilson, Robson, Ford, Tuilagi I’d probably go something like Vunipola George Sinckler Itoje L...

Have you seen this article on Lozowski? https://www.telegraph.co.uk/rugby-union/2018/10/25/alex-lozowski-appeals-against-suspension-bid-face-south-africa/ Again it is almost unbelievable what is going on in presently in hearings and with punishments.... Back to Cips again however, if Lozowsli is be...

Thomas waldrom has announced his retirement, a great player, I wish had been a tiger for longer. I wish him luck for the future.

Courtney Lawes has re-signed for northampton until 2021, shame I was hoping all the talk of Etzebeth, was a smoke screen so we could put in an offer to Lawes to bring him up the m1.

I'd expect to lose May, Ford and Ben Youngs to England duty. I'd be surprised if he doesn't call up Dan Cole with a lack of experience available to the front row. That being said, due to injuries I wouldn't be surprised if Williams, O'Connor or Thomson get a look in for the back row. Can’t see us l...

Congrats and good luck to him, a player I feel was wasted last year under O’Connor In the a-league, but it does worry me that it will not only leave use short during the autumn internationals, and also make it even harder to keep him at the end of the season as in order to keep his place for Wales h...

Really hard to know what to do with Manu at the moment. Might depend on whether his England career gets back on track. Completely agree weather we keep Manu or not will depend on if he makes the World Cup squad, which I think will be between him and teo for the ball carrying centre. If he doesn’t m...

Polota-Nau has been withdrawn from the Australian team due to a hamstring injury, I wonder if that means we’ll get him back or if it’s not to bad they’ll keep him out there.

Could be worse! Sales Twitter page and inside line rugby both reporting that they will be announcing Dorian west as their new forwards coach today.

Why hit the panic button? People weren’t talking like this when England were on their long unbeaten run, largely under Jones’s stewardship. He’s testing and embedding players so he has options in a year’s time, and/or he’s getting players on the fringes used to his preferred structures. All his pre...

Poor England squad for me. This whole year we’ve been blitzed at the breakdown, yet Jones doesn’t pick Underhill and Kvesic in the squad and we’ll have the same old slow pack with a lock at 6. Exactly, he seem to have gone through the same pattern as Lancaster and just keeps picking the same player...
