What do you think of this lineup?
What a good position we’re in where we’ve got 30 odd players unavailable (supposedly – has anyone done a count?) and there’s still this competition for places. It seems hard on Wilson, Curry and Lozowski, but then I’m excited to see Underhill and Francis, and having Robbo back is never going to be a bad thing.
Hopefully another good game in store. My only gripe is not seeing Earle get a chance.
In the interests of giving other guys a chance, like Francis, Underhill and Robshaw, why don’t we have Earle on the bench instead of Solomona?
That is the one disappointment for me but I can see England winning this test as well. I think it will still be tight. England by 5-7 points.
Or Solomona starting and Earle on the bench? Agree – that’s my only comment
yeah earle is insane in attack and defence whereas solomona lacks in the defence side of things.
plus he is a sarries man
