I think that's Eddie's conundrum. Youngs will be 33/34, Farrell 32 and Ford 30. That's an age where they could all still play a part. Post RWC then it would be a big rebuild, any significant injuries in the lead up to either Farrell or Youngs might be hard for them to come back from into their 30s, particularly with Farrell playing so confrontationally.Big Dai wrote: ↑Fri Oct 23, 2020 8:40 am Regardless of form or fitness are Lenny and George.... And Faz for that matter, going to be the answer for the next world cup? If the answer is no then it's time to start looking elsewhere. If others are not ready then delaying a change will ensure we're not ready come world Cup time.
IMHO, coat in hand.
