Not really...but thanks for taking the time to post anyway.

Nope

[Bloke in North Dorset]

If England played a style of rugby similar to France and weren't managed by the smarmiest person in sport it might provide a useful distraction but on past performance all it will do is increase the anger levels if i start following them.

[DGP Wasp]

Sadly the current state of the national team, and the obnoxious bloke in charge only add to the misery.

Thanks for posting

I'd had a casual look earlier - nothing of any surprise in the pack, but given the injury record of Manu and the lack of much in the way of performance from Joe C and the Jack N - great Prem player, prob past his best and also injury prone, wtf was the point of selecting them and not other fast back three players.

This close to a RWC why select so many uncapped players?

The only glimmer is Malins. Though WTF Daly has done to not get selected at centre will continue to mystify as it's not like England have loads of 13's.....And Furbank must have evidence....
