It's interesting to see how inexperienced this squad is. It
feels like some of them have been around for a lot longer:
10 or fewer caps: 6 players
11-25 caps: 6 players
26-50 caps: 5 players
50+ caps: 6 players
Assuming that roughly the same group stays together until 2027,
most of them would have 15-20 additional caps which would make
for the right experience mix going into RWC 27

I think he might get a run out against Italy, certainly if OS
dosen't pull up trees again (defensively suspect against
France).
Its a tough one, had he not been injured maybe would have had
another go, but the shirts changed hands again. Hopefully he
impresses in training which is all he can do now

This very much has the feel that Borethick is hoping that
lightning will strike twice and we'll scrape over the line
again. Ireland showed that forward power makes them uneasy so
hope to see CCS on at 60 minutes tearing into them....and can
someone please tackle DVdM before he starts running. Heard
yesterday that, in the 6N era, he has scored the most tries
against England with 6 and the Quins Alum (the beautiful) Huw
Jones with 5.....

He was at the Saracens game on Saturday using crutches, didn't
get a chance to speak with him but did not look like a quick
fix.

Sounds like IF-W is more likely to recover during the 6N.

It would be nice to see him score against Wales in Cardiff,
being the decisive score that sees England lift the trophy....
