It's only a game and much more important things to be bothered about.

Sam Simmonds injured for six months and Jonny Hill injured for a lengthy period too, Simmonds injury doesn’t really affects us might see the recall of Morgan which would be great but Hill’s injury means when Spencer returns or even Mike Williams (he deserves it too) they have less competition for EPS places.

There's a lot of locks for England to choose from. Lawes, Launchbury, Itoje will all be in there and then Attwood, Slater, Kruis and Isiekwe. Can't see Williams making it, Spencer might have made it had the ban not ruled him out for so many games.JP14 wrote: ↑Thu Oct 04, 2018 6:58 am Sam Simmonds injured for six months and Jonny Hill injured for a lengthy period too, Simmonds injury doesn’t really affects us might see the recall of Morgan which would be great but Hill’s injury means when Spencer returns or even Mike Williams (he deserves it too) they have less competition for EPS places.

Don’t forget Stooke, criminally underrated and has always played well for England whenever given the chance against the Barbarians.sam16111986 wrote: ↑Thu Oct 04, 2018 8:00 pmThere's a lot of locks for England to choose from.

Stooke, Slater and Spencer are deserving of an England place, Atwood and Kruis aren’t.

Yet Attwood starts for Bath ahead of Stooke. He's in very good form again. The sort of form that got him a call up a few years back. His time may have passed and England aren't short of other options, but Attwood is close to his best.

Courtney Lawes has re-signed for northampton until 2021, shame I was hoping all the talk of Etzebeth, was a smoke screen so we could put in an offer to Lawes to bring him up the m1.

An excellent player hampered by injury recently. Italy especially have really missed him.strawclearer wrote: ↑Tue Oct 23, 2018 6:11 pm Fissler saying "Michele Campagnaro moving from Exeter Chiefs to Wasps will be announced in the next 24-48 hours"

I think that’s because the All Blacks are luring Luatua back to the country. Bristol need some props and another flyhalf.strawclearer wrote: ↑Thu Oct 25, 2018 12:11 am Nathan Hughes set for £500,000 a year move to Bristol - story on @MailSport now.
