Not in the same way that Marsile "enjoys himself" when Farrell
is picked...

With Borthwick IC his only option is 15
And
To be fair
England under SB won't progress
They show zero motivation, zero shirt pride
Just turning up for the appearance money

Even Gatland said he would build a team around Smith if he had
him in his squad. Such a missed opportunity not to give him the
keys to number 10.

Ever considered the players actually do what the coaches tell
them to? (And don't enjoy it?)

To me it looks like a squad that has a bunch of people that
don't like each other very much. It seems like this got worse
post salary cap gate and hasn't improved much under SB. Think he
made a rod for his own back by picking OF as captain. Pick
Lawes, Jamie George and nobody cares, everyone moves on with a
hint that there's a break from the EJ era - pick OF who's place
has been the subject of controversy for years on end a divisive
character and the problems persist.
