Agreed - thought he was good until the last 10 mins. A bit like Tommy Allan,

Italy will be a challenge next week - seems like they are now a well drilled team

Pasta or Pizza for Steve and Kev next week?

The Italians looked a bit handy to me!

As I’ve said more than once I would only play Dombrandt if Smith was at 10 because they play incredibly well off each other. As I have picked Farrell as my FH I have picked Earl at 8 instead.

Italy will feel confident about turning over England next Sunday at Twickenham. Their bench scrum half should get the nod over the error strewn Varney.

Horses for courses. But maybe start Cole and Mako next week and unleash Sinkler and Genge from the bench?

There's a thought. So do you start VRR or start Genge with Cole?

Cole is definitely not a finisher, I think against Italy start him and bring on Heyes.
