Has now been reduced to 29 players, I know EJ does a lot of stupid stuff but I’m finding this squad very odd.
The 2nd row is difficult to fathom. He has itoje, which is obvious, then his other choices are Chessum, Ewels and maybe Isiekwe, who may even have to play in the back row.
I know it’s good for us but how the hell is Chessum and Ewels ahead of Stooke.
Also back row, curry at 7 is fine and Dombrant and simmonds at 8 fine. 6 is a big problem, does EJ really believe that Isiekwe is the best 6 available. Again best for us but on what planet is Isiekwe better than Alfie or Brad at 6. I appreciate Isiekwe can play 2nd row as well but I personally feel he isn’t our best choice anyway.
I would like to see Jack Nowell and Max Malins on the wing because he has let all the good one go. I should imagine it will be Daly.
I would like England to do well but I’m struggling to see us get pass Scotland, Ireland and France
