Are all on Amazon Prime as far as I can see. Usually a good team of presenters.

We will know on Friday. He has been happily training with them. Maybe bench fodder.

Was offered a family of four ticket for 52 quid for this match - RFU take note.

Paolo not included vs Scotland. Perhaps will get a chance against Ireland next week.

Hopefully so but wonder if he has left the switch too late.

England v Fiji - ?45 for an adult to watch a World Cup warm up match vs a Tier 2 nation. Laughable. Lots of tickets available and doesn't look like they've opened the Upper Tier.

Just under 50k at Murrayfield, even in the 6 nations Italy tickets are a slow seller so for a world cup warm up game that's pretty good.

There's  a mention of Tom Willis in the D. Tel.  saying that he might be  chosen at  No. 8 for England.   If so ...   I might ... just might ...  watch.  That'll be the first (maybe last)  International I'll have watched in yonks.

Forza Paolo.

Tom Willis on the bench for England. With the RWC squad announced on Monday he's probably got to put it about when he gets on.

No sign of Jack.

With the RWC squad being announced on Monday, I reckon it's safe to assume Jack is already inked in.

Likewise Arundell, Farrell etc.

This looks like a last-gasp opportunity for some to grab a spot.

I hope Tom Willis gets a  chance  to play; it's time he had his chance to shine.

Never mind - after the EAs buff him up and save his playing career he will shine forever in Borthwick's eyes (unless Billy takes umbridge).
