Re: **OFFICIAL** English Rugby Thread

Delon Armitage, probably still the best english fullback. Close call between Delon and Mike Brown. Foden has to regain some of the dash that made his inclusion an automatic choice. Foden is running the ball back well but into dead ends not space. I'm not entirely sure his club form was ever as good...

Re: **OFFICIAL** English Rugby Thread

As much as i laugh at Allen and his little arms (c/o Flaps) i think he was really good today, and most times i've seen him this year. I'd say he's quicker than barrit and much better on the ball.
