Wilson, Curry and Billy V have carried on where they left off last week too. The more I see Wilson the more I like him!

Most of the wingers in the premiership would have scored two of his tries, put on a plate by his team mates

It's not just the scoring, it's his kick chase and getting men into touch to give England the lineout in great locations

He didn't, Slade did. Jonny came inside to track Huget and both him and Manu made that tackle leaving an overload on the outside

Absolutely - team performance. Forwards creating a great platform for the backs to play off.

May would have been my mom last week, but not this. Lawes replacing Itoje had a brilliant game. He's my mom this week.

Slade bar one missed tackle was very good as was our Ben,OF too. Curry and Wilson superb,Billy a bit quiet again but Mako outstanding. Only little tiny gripe is LCD scares me,arrows arnt good enough. Much prefer Hartley to finish games which is what I think will be happening once he's fit.

It's what Tuilagi does without the ball that's very good now,just his mere presence has brought about a complete 180 in Slade's form who was lucky really to be still in the 23 after the SA tour and the AI.

Tremendous effort again this week, we looked empty from about 70 onwards but the game was won. Got the rub of the green, but then again we were winning so that's expected I suppose.

No poor performances again, maybe not as many standout. Lawes, Wilson and Curry all excellent in the forwards, Faz and May in the backs.
