I think we will see a return to the Borthwick we knew and loved.. this is the plan....this is the team....go deliver.
Rather than the 'let the lads express themselves ' stuff.

Just seen this.. chances of a citing for Tipuric?
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.

Cole is definitely not a finisher, I think against Italy start him and bring on Heyes.
Agreed - start Cole bring Sinckler off the bench when the game opens up

Looks bad but as with any of these things need to see the video as a still image doesn't give the full detail. Need to see how that hand gets there and the type of movement going on.

Interesting to see the way Farrell comes back into the ruck from the side after the tackle and seems to make contact with Russell’s head.

Re Farrell and Russell. As a Scot, I am ecstatic at the result. As a Tigers supporter, I am glad we suffered no injuries. Never been an Owen Farrell fan, so you give it out, you expect it back. He shouldn't even have been on the pitch.

Sinkler did well ..not sure if Cole is the answer off the bench ! Both Sinkler and Genge were doing well and to bring on older and slower just didn’t work ! Bring Cole home and give Heyes his chance

I was not looking for anything. Just happened to see something that just is there, and thought it was interesting. Possibly the ball is clear on the ground and Farrell decides to compete for it, but I would argue he is already offside and off his feet.
