Thanks for posting kk20gb30 but it’s a Classic rubbish news article that simply states England will arrive later on today not that they have actually arrived as suggested by the headline. Typical media spin with nothing new in the article

He’s been the top-performing centre in Welsh rugby this season.

If he doesn’t start, talk of ‘form counting for everything’ would be hollow, indeed.


Even form cannot overrule a positive COVID test. Scott Williams drafted in.

This weekend falls outside the AI window. Only reason the England lads are t available is they are in Jersey on a 5 day training camp
