Front Rows during Autumn Internationals

With Italy & Argentina also having matches in November aren't we going to struggle to put 6 front rowers in the 23s for matches in November? Dan Cole coming back from injury will help but...

Ayerza, Cole, Stanko, Castro, Chuter, Youngs.

And we dont know how long Muffin and Duffey will be out, or where we are with Robbie Harris.

Yes but, Darc Tiger, I think the point is that, of your list there, potentially Castro will be playing for Italy and Ayerza for Argentina. (And Chuter could be involved for England too)

I don't know much about the rules of stopping players from playing for their countries (or even if there are any), - and doesn't Dan Cole play for the Saxons too? different rules there? Can't remember...

So who's left? Presumably there's more academy players to promote?

Seems a shame that Tonga don't have a series of games this autumn - judging from yesterday's game that would hit the London 'Irish' quite hard!

It would seem more appropriate to call themselves London Tonga

I noticed yesterday that the next 'event' at Madejski is Reading Vs Leicester. I did a double-take until I saw in much smaller print below that there was also a match between Irish & Tigers.

I reckon they're already confused!

Anyone know how Dan Cole got on at Nottingham?
