No,brought Marchant on and moved his favourite to 10 and Lawrence to 12!

Unlucky England. You tried your best and that’s all anyone can ask of you.
Take the positives, 5th is better than 6th.

Like Tom Curry immensely but to say it was the bounce of the ball here or there and a ‘few’ individual errors is so naive of the deeper issues.

Didn’t think any Tigers players had a good game today, Ben, past his best, George a good club player, not international class and Ellis gets easily wound up and that affects his performance.
Hope they play better for us in the next few weeks.

If Farrell was taken off for an HIA why did they not bring Ford on (at least until the 10 mins assessment time was up)? 8

Deflating result. The only thing I can see is that we may have a few more players next 6 nations and Exeter will lose more players.
Not sure why Youngs gets so many pelters from fans? You don’t win 100 plus caps for your country and be average at best. You win them because you are the best in that position and that you have something in your locker that others don’t.
Ford is class, which shows, that if he has a below average game the team does.
I am more than happy if we don’t lose them both next year.
I am sure that Martin will win more caps.
There is never any points for 2nd place...

I thought he stood out like a sore thumb. He did job his job efficiently without knocking on or conceding needless penalties. It was a very composed debut. I'm sure Eddie will have noted that.
