At least two of those would be England starters as well, not just squad fodder.

Lawes, Tuilagi, Armitage, Yarde and now this guy.

Why?

Maths not your strong point, then? Sorry but I just asked a question, on my phone so the auto fill makes things difficult. Have the Tories done what they said they would do in respect to the debt?

Lads, can't we all just get along and agree that John Terry is a wit kant?

You've not really said much of anything to be honest.

Right. This is reminding me of the "Burrell is being picked for his defence because he's large" conversation I had a little while ago, what with all the confirmation bias in it There is not necessarily a causal link between height/weight and defensive ability although you'd be amazed at how many co...

I've never wanted a French team to win more than I do now.

Chuckles1188 wrote:Okay, so why are Burrell and 36 not starting?

Burrell is starting. The selection of JJ relates to the 'can' bit of the sentence.

It will be tragic if Chelsea get to another CL final.

I said I suspect Farrell picks the biggest backs he can.

For your grammar due diligence I direct you to the words 'suspect' and 'can' in that sentence.

is this like your "opinion" that Alex Goode would've been a world-class 12 Like much of your prodigious output in this place - you are writing made-up garbage. just because you said it under the guise of one of your various multis doesn't excuse you from saying it I have never said Alex Goode would...

Yep. Park the bus against Chelsea and they are screwed. Then it is fun to hear Mourinho complain without a shred of self-awareness. .

I said I suspect Farrell wants the biggest lumps he can get, there will be some compromises. I am starting to think that back play is just one of those things that England will always get wrong 19 times out of 20. I do have serious doubts that Farrell is the right man to run the England backs - he i...

Slade is better where? At 12? The position he hasn't played in for ages? Big call. England frequently play good rugby with a straight line runner at 12, and Barritt can do that to an extent and is a world class defensive presence which shouldn't be discounted. I'm not a fan of the rest of his game,...

Who Twelvetrees?! Do me a favour - he is a prancer. I can see why he would catch the coaches eye on the training paddock as I imagine he would have textbook technique doing skills and unopposed work. He is also a big talker apparently which the coaches love. Here you go Toga. Watch his 5 minutes on...

36 misses tackles, I absolutely accept that. Cowardice isn't why, though. He's not waving people through like some. Defence is very much a mental challenge rather than a physical one.

You must be watching a different Twelvetrees to the one I watch. The busy fool is still a fool - his defence just isn't up to it and neither is his carrying ability. Good club player but will never be test class. He's watching the same one everyone else is, but not the one you alone are watching. 3...

12t isn't a pea heart. One big missed tackle on an Aussie and the narrative is set, I'm afraid. We'll ignore his tackling after that. His tackling against Italy was awful. It is not a narrative, it is a trend. So every missed tackle is cowardice? Bizarre. Have you seen ANY other tier-1 centre make ...

Twelvetrees was indeed the next big thing a few years ago and he was selected to play for England as a consequence. However, he has shown since that initial selection that when he goes up a level he shrinks as a player - almost literally given his peahearted attempts at tackling players who weigh 10...
