I feel like we’ve never replaced Kruis in the pack, Hill is a poor mans alternative. We knew he was going to Japan two seasons ago.

Saracens players were all poor, no surprise considering lack of gametime. Coupled with a kick all the time game plan equals an unsurprising result.

Thought the same when England played in the autumn, bored of watching us play.

Scotland must be happy to win the wooden spoon decider. Congratulations England on your losing bonus point.

One team has to lose mate I’m afraid,you’d know all about that being a Wales fan. Is Pivac Welsh record as good as Murphys here? Their strike rate must be close

That was a complete mess, out of form and rusty players, think this will be Jones last Six Nations as England coach, that performance was pathetic in all aspects.

In hindsight it appears to have been a mistake to select the Saracens players in the team as they did not look especially match fit or match ready. It would have been larceny if Scotland had lost as they played all the rugby. They should have won by more and they won despite Russell at 10 not because of him. He was quite poor.

Yeah we will! Good luck though mate,I like Pivac Scarlets were gold to watch at times. I’ve no doubt it will come good for him.

If Pivac can get Wales playing like the Scarlets it would be great for international rugby.

As an aside is the officiating team in the Italy France game the worst ever assembled?
To win is not as important as playing with style!

Haven’t a clue why you would play Sarries players who have no game time, it was embarrassing at times, Farrell was clueless at 10 with a midfield that did little or nothing, as for May he is so out of sorts and seems a player on the decline, the buck does sit with Jones and I think this the beginning of the end for him.

I fear Jones has selected his team and Is devoid of ideas about to to move on. With it.

Perhaps he needs to move on?

The only positive to come out of this is that England were woeful but only lost by 5 points

That’s one thing mate,we were dreadful while Scotland were at their best and incredibly we still could’ve won it. I can’t see a GS this year so the title is still on but the pressure is on now
