Good article. Agree with all of that - especially the Jimmy bit. I also think Cruse will start at hooker a bit more now.

WTF is Jones doing with players if they are not in training sessions?

Agree on that

I would like to see Alfie either get a start or come off the bench, in his preferred position of hooker. One problem with playing him in the back row, he isn't a line out jumper which reduces our options.

It's ludicrous isn't it. Presumably he's assessing whether he can drive on a motorway.

If Lee had kept quiet about Umaga being ready to resume training or said not ready if EJ had asked, and then 2 days later he was fit enough to train with wasps, how much trouble would he have been in?

Seems like pissing with players for some "Jones" reason.....
