  Hello Loosehead, some thoughts on this team, good back 3 strong and pacy and good mix of experience and less experienced ones at international level, decent halfbacks – they are raving about Youngs, not sure about the centre pairing, Tindall maybe a bit cumbersome but I guess he adds some power to the midfield. Looks like a strong front – but thats more your area of expertise, undecided about 2nd row think may be a bit thin here and will miss Lawes. Loosies – individually maybe not bad but lets see how they gel as a unit. Not really impressed by the bench especially the forwards.

  England by 7.

  I’m afraid Johnson has not impressed me as a coach.
  Shaw, Easter, Worsley should be making way for younger guys, but these are all Johnno’s old pals. Tindall also must go, when is Barritt going to get a run here.

  I feel REALLY hurt that you refer to these 2 fine Rugby Nations as “The Poms” and “The Taffy’s”.

  As an Englishman of Welsh heritage I am shocked and stunned that you should belittle these fine nations like this.

  Next you’ll be referring to the Bulls as “Die Blou Nulle”.

  So Jonny is on the bench, I would dearly love to see him run on in my first ever time of seeing England play!!

  Really looking towards Friday in Wales….. 🙂

  @ Blue Bird:
  Cardiff is a great place to watch Rugby and just as great to party after the game.

  I was there in 2008 to watch the Boks. It’s only a short drive for you from where you are as well. (If you’re where I think you are in the Cotswolds)
