He was alright, probably doesn’t help that Slade is outside him. Probably would be better with more of a runner like Lawrence than another playmaker.

Not aimed at you but does a brand new coach/es only count when it's England and Leicester? Italy had one today
Not saying anything about coaches mate!
No,that's why I said not aimed at you. But if we can use the injuries and new players you can use the new coach excuse for Italy and at times they looked more well drilled than us. Seems some England and Leicester fans at times always have excuses ,that was my point. Not aimed at you in particular
If ifs and ands were pots and pans,
They'd be no more work for tinkers hands.

I think we'd all be more satisfied IF Daly hadn't made that trip and left us exposed wide. Job done and we were more than 7 in front when we scored seven.

I don't think it's an excuse to point at the newbies regarding a win that wasn't as big as expected. Let's face it, some of the newbies did better than some of the Stalwarts.

Throw Martin, Smith, Lawrence, and Genge into that mix and it's a different game.

Yes I am, sory I just cannot learn to love him, he is just one of those players that bug me. I must try harder, but game not over yet I'm still expecting him to do something stupid.

Compare and contrast Van Der Merwer 's try against the play of England wingers.

Total belief he can make the line. No faffing about.

We need our England backs to have that depth of self belief.

No... I genuinely like how the Scottish backs are playing.

Or maybe I am just to used to how our backs play...

Sorry. I wasn’t trying to be clever! I bet it has a lot to do with Townsend though, and he unfortunately won't love to us just to be an attack coach.

The Scottish forwards, however, are getting battered atm....

Am I to believe you're a Scotland fan with a nervous disposition?
