Just so. And some very big mouths on here aren't excusing their former opinions on players they said EJ should pick. England will be rebuilt.
Leicester Tigers 1995-
Nottingham 1995-2000
Swansea (Whites) 1988-95
A game played on grass in the open air by teams of XV.

Speaking as an Irish exile don't think much point in England turning up in Dublin next week 😊
I think you enjoy the game more if you don't know the rules. Anyway, you're on the same wavelength as the referees.

Losing 76-0 away in Australia in 1998, although I think I remember that being a very second string England, and Oz went on to be World Champs in 1999 (France might do the same in their home RWC) - still worse though.

I felt very sorry for Smith, he tried his heart out he was everywhere, attacking, covering back, he was very sadly let down by a lethargic and underpowered pack, I think for all his efforts he was our best player. Where has Itoje gone? :smt017

The loss wasn't a surprise, but the margin was. Wake up call for all those who thought relocating Tigers coaches so close to the 6N was akin to a magic wand.

What a fabulous match, although I was hopelessly hoping for an England win. Roll on the World Cup!

I think you make a good point. I thought Ellis spoke well on interview. He should be captain every game .

And Tigers are losing how many players to this when we have such a chase in the Prem?
Congrats to France and let's see if Scotland can assist them by bettering the Irish.
