AUTUMN INTERNATIONALS 2021

[Nofrontteeth]

Suggestion that Bevan Rodd will be the replacement called up. I really rate Rodd so I'd be happy to see that. England have lots of props with very high tackle counts and/or ones that are good ball carriers but they haven't had much breakdown presence from a prop for a long time which Rodd offers.

Trevor Davison is already in the squad and can play both sides but I believe England have been viewing him as a TH.

So Rodd has it.

Early indications are that Farrell will start at FH with Manu and Slade outside him. I don't mind that,I don't ever want to see Smith and Farrell and especially don't want to see Smith,Farrell,Slade!

England: Steward; Tuilagi, Slade, Farrell (capt) May; Smith, Youngs; Genge, George, Sinckler, Itoje, Hill, Lawes, Underhill, Curry.

Replacements: Blamire, Rodd, Stuart, Ewels, Dombrandt, Simmonds, Quirke, Malins


Scott will be pleased

Manu on the wing? What the heck?

[Old Hob]

No Radwan?
Probably the fastest bloke on either side?

[Bobmac]

Manu on the wing? What the heck?

Well Jones has to make room for Farrell, which I totally disagree with. Farrell is either a 10 or doesn't play whether he's captain or not. Be Interesting to see who gets kicking duties?

[Fish8ter]

Manu on the wing...:censored:

Two specialist number 8's on the bench, with Curry starting at 8 !

There isn’t a slap forehead emoji, so this will have to do:

Hopefully our non-selected players will be released and available for selection this weekend.

[Scott1]

Absolute farce! What the heck is Eddie doing? Smith,Farrell,Slade? Absolute muppet!

[Jimmy Skitz]

just fire him now for crying out loud

[Scott1]

Massive extra pressure on Steward this game because if I'm Australia im targeting Manu as much as possible with the high ball and in behind. Freddie gonna have to do some serious covering

[Scott1]

just fire him now for crying out loud

I think he just does things for effect sometimes mate

[Jimmy Skitz]

I honestly don't think Farrell would start at 12 for most prem sides but we have to put up with him there at England because no one has the balls to drop his ego, either start him at 10 or don't pick him

[RagingBull]

Matt Scott in the Scotland game v SA his first international game in over 4 years and it's against the champs and B&I tour winners

Starting as well.

What a great story for Tigers, comes here off the back of no contract offers from Cockers recommendation becomes IMO our form centre in both 12 and 13 and gets his rewards with a cap. Very good PR for Tigers recruitment.
