His last game for us against Wasps (away) he was dreadful. He
looked as though he just didn't want to be there. that has been
his major problem over the past three seasons - on a good dy
he's worldclass with moments of sheer brilliance. On an off day
he's petulent and just not interested.

You wouldn't care (whoops!) to jog my/our memories, would you?

Danny's a supersub at international level, nothing more. Hell
of a trick though, given his try scoring / creating record. If
Robson were fit I'd have been happy with a 6N partnering of
Robson/Spencer tbh.
Now, if Bad Shields get picked ahead of Robshaw, then the
pitchforks will come out.

Care, Robshaw & Brown are yesterday’s men. Sinkler will be the
only Quin going unless there is an Injury crisis.

It’s been v clear that DC’s England days are over.
Robshaw I guess could just sneak in but no way he’s in the
starting XV.
Will Eddie take Brown? Dunno. He’s not a Jones player, can’t
cover multiple positions.
The interchangeable back 3 worked pretty well without him - May
took a lot of the high balls.

he's the best finishing scrum half England have. The number of

instrumental in a lot of victories - remember his personal
demolition of Australia? - and I am willing to bet that he might
have made the difference against Wales in the 6N.

players who've been part of his setup for three quarters of his
tenure, are the most experienced options in their positions, and

making the final 31, but I'd be perplexed if they weren't in the
initial training squad.

Yep. 100% agree.
Care, Robshaw and Brown have been in great form, so it’s hardly
as though we’re arguing that they’re suggested off the back of
‘credit in the bank’/past performances.
Selection is always very subjective (particularly under Eddie),
but to ignore a group of players who have almost always
delivered for England for the training squad at this late stage
is just completely illogical. Particularly when the players
likely to replace them are not obviously superior or in better
form.
England’s loss is our gain, but it feels grossly unfair for
their England careers to end in a fairly humiliating way.

Telegraph Sport understands that Care has been directly informed
that he will not be going to Japan, while former captain Chris
Robshaw’s hopes also appear to be in the balance. Neither has
featured under Jones this year having been mainstays for the
first three years of the Australian’s reign.

Thanks. If so, that is really quite bizarre, especially if the
rumours of taking a makeshift regards reserve scrum half are
true. On the other hand "understands that X has been informed"
is "someone told us that someone told someone else something",
so I would take it with a pinch of salt.

What that normally means is the person in question has told
everyone.
