Re: 6 Nations 2022
I think he's only missed 2/3 tackles for Irish in the Premiership this season. I'm not saying I'd start him in the opener, Nowell's experience might be a big factor in a match that could set the tone for England's 6N, difficult call for me.Offside wrote: ↑Tue Jan 25, 2022 5:12 pmWhat are his defensive stats like?Tiglon wrote: ↑Tue Jan 25, 2022 2:49 pm All I hope for the back three is that Hassell-Collins gets given a proper chance, he's earned it and could be one of the breakthrough players of the championship. Other than the fact that he plays for an unfashionable club there's really nothing going against him.

Re: 6 Nations 2022
I would go Hassell-Collins ahead of Radwan, who needs to show more to his game than just being quick.Tiglon wrote: ↑Tue Jan 25, 2022 5:23 pmI think he's only missed 2/3 tackles for Irish in the Premiership this season.

Ford and Daly called up. Also Isiekwe joins the squad as injury cover for Lawes.
With regard to Jonny May's withdrawal from the squad, he's going to find it tough to get back in with the likes of Hassell-Collins, Marchant, Nowell and now Daly champing at the bit for a place on the wing.

Re: 6 Nations 2022
He won’t be going anywhere with a 33% tackle success rate…
Cheering on the Tigers in Detroit.
Previously a slower, shorter, less good looking version of Tom Croft.

Re: 6 Nations 2022
Marler’s got Covid …again. They won’t be calling up a replacement.

Must be all those kids he’s got. No real reason for cover. Marler isolate for 5 days, and Genge and Rodd in the squadNo6_Flanker wrote: ↑Tue Jan 25, 2022 7:35 pm Marler’s got Covid …again. They won’t be calling up a replacement.

Re: 6 Nations 2022
According to the Telegraph:
“Marler scrummed for Harlequins against Castres hooker Gaëtan Barlot, who withdrew from the France squad on Sunday after also testing positive for Covid.”

Re: 6 Nations 2022
There's been a fire at the England hotel and they've had to move, not an ideal senario.
Hope nobody was injured

Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.
Re: 6 Nations 2022
It was a manhole fire apparently, hope they didn't try and put it out with their feet
