Bit of a change of the guard at 9, possibly Jones last try to get Smiths club form onto the international stage.
Great opportunity for JVP, end of the road possibly for Lenny or too early to say?

Would have thought harry wells would have been a shout to replace Ewels. Otherwise glad to see a few of our youngsters getting a crack

I doubt it - I'm sure Lenny turned down touring to be with his and his brothers family over the summer - I'm sure he'll be back come the autumnRugbygramps wrote: ↑Thu Jun 30, 2022 9:43 am Bit of a change of the guard at 9, possibly Jones last try to get Smiths club form onto the international stage.

Exciting team. Just very surprised to see Arundel and not Freeman on the bench.
Looking forward to it.

Should be a cracker! Lot of inexperience in that Aussie pack,missing their best forward too in Tupou (ok it’s probably Hooper) and both front line locks. As always against Australia our pack will decide this.

Good England team that! Glad Randall didn’t make the 23 as never been impressed with him at test level. Should be a great game and want to see Eng put in a good performance.
Tigers players all deserve their chance given the season we’ve had. Only surprised omission is maybe Earl who didn’t make the squad - would’ve been massive for him to come off the bench in the last 20.

Much better team than I thought we'd put out. Great to see some form players Care, JVP, Porter, Arundell getting a chance. Some great match ups too, Steward v Banks, Cooper v Smith, Vunipola v Valetini. Will be a great game hopefully!
