Re: England team for Saturday
Does anyone else think that Ford looks a little more toned than normal? Has MOC already sent out a PT to up his strength and conditioning. Might be helping his kicking which so far has been superb.

In 2 minutes Solomona has missed 2 tackles and we've conceded 2 tries! I hope the 'hype mobile' can score 3

Genge being subbed has made a huge difference.
WHAT a try by Ford, gas, gas, gas

Re: England team for Saturday
Well that's one back for Solomona!
Anyone else think comparing Brown and Watson at FB that Mikes days are numbered? At least twice he's taken contact rather than offload, where I think Watson would probably back his passing, given his performance this morning.

Re: England team for Saturday
I have no issues with his go forward, we've seen it all season for Sale but he looked all over the place in defence. When you look at players that have been dropped/not selected due to poor defence then it does make me question his selection. You could say he's unlucky that his 2 missed tackles lead straight to tries but them's the breaks.tigercaspian wrote:Quite agree, that Solomona is rubbish!!
Ford was outstanding as was Curry. Genge was solid at the scrum and handy around the field.
Hartley made too many mistakes and should spend next week on the bench.

Don't think George missed a kick did he? He was helped, like everyone else, by playing up at 1800 feet, but what a flowing game, defenses were suspect but George was MOM for me with Genge runner up!

He missed converting his own try, but then again he didn't give himself the easiest kick and he'd just run from our 22LE18 wrote:Don't think George missed a kick did he?
