England v Fiji
DIR By: poorfour
Date: August 24, 2023, 6:59 am
---------------------------------------------------------
Teams up:
15 Steward
14 Malins
13 Lawrence
12 Tuilagi
11 May
10 Ford
9 Mitchell
1 Genge
2 Dan
3 Sinckler
4 Itoje
5 Chessum
6 Lawes (c)
7 Willis
8 Earl
16 Walker
17 Marler
18 Stuart
19 Ribbans
20 Ludlam
21 Care
22 Smith
23 Marchant
Under the circumstances, that's a sensible looking side. Worried
that there's no sign of Curry, and I am not convinced by Earl at
8. We need to see if Tuilagi / Lawrence can gel as a midfield -
I'd expect them to swap around a fair bit - and the bench could
be interesting if they are given enough time to actually change
the game.

To select May ahead of Murley, makes me want England to be
tonked even more.
Cmon Fiji.
Also, that midfield has the flair and dynamism of an oil tanker.

Where are Arundell, Daly and Watson? There is even of course
Joe to cover that position.
It’s as though they really don’t want the fans to back the team.

I can only assume SB is resting Daly and Watson as he seems them
as nailed on starters, despite neither doing anything.
Arundell I can only assume has a knock. If not, to pick a player
not in the squad and not have him in the team at all is
startling.

"It is understood that there are fitness doubts over both
flanker Tom Curry and wing Anthony Watson "

The Telegraph reporting that both Watson and Daly are out of the
WC and have been replaced by May and Cokanasiga...
I manage to get more and more disappointed by this England team
every single day and the tournament hasn't even started yet.
Can't wait 'til we get knocked out in the quarters so this is
all over and done with

Makes sense to bring in two wingers, neither who is the top
performing one in the premiership

Watson has been confirmed by the Beeb as being out of the RWC.

I've heard he's reached out to Rory Underwood just in case
