Doesn’t make sense to me - it’s pretty obvious what Scotland will do early doors and in particular if it’s wet.

2 midgets out of our back three - cue an aerial barrage

Who’s your second midget both Daley and Freeman are 6ft plus

Furbank has been very good both sides of the ball for Saints so does deserve some game time. He’s plays either 10 or 15, don’t think he’s played much, if at all on the wing

Google says Daly is 178cm which is the same as me. And no that’s not short generally but is in relation to rugby.

I’ll take someone saying I’m 6ft plus and run with it!

Wiki says 183 cm which I think is more accurate

I know we take what the Ruck says with a pinch of salt, but even they and their readers think it is mad

British and Irish Lions say 179cm which I ld say is about right so we’ll have to agree to disagree

EDIT - and Sarries website says 178

A FB's height is only the beginning; what makes him stand out is the ability to get off the ground and compete. Brown and Steward can do it, Dale can't!

Sorry! Daly.

On the plus side, there is no rain in Edinburgh this week and Saturday is forecast to be dry with only a light breeze.

Daly doesn't rather than can't.

Borthwick cowering to media pressure on Freddie, there has been a movement to get him dropped for a while.

I want England to win obviously but I want Furbank to be completely exposed in the air and destroyed in defence

An attitude more at home in a primary school playground than a rugby forum.

Are we sure Freddie isn't injured? He had been carrying an arm/shoulder injury in the run up to the 6N?

Furbank is a capable full back, it's the continued selection of Daly on the wing that worries me. They will just send Van De Merve down his channel and be waved by or a feeble attempt at a tackle when he's gone past.

The official story is he’s fit. I agree though what post game photos I’ve seen of Freddie sans shirt he’s is heavily strapped shoulder upper arm area

It's what us mere mortals call being human

It could be one of those, he'd play if it he needed to, but can struggle on...

Was that the shoulder he injured right at the beginning of a game? Was it Saracens?
