BG - so who is the "clique" in the England side - much as I don't like Jones, he doesn't seem one to suffer fools? That said, he might be a little more cautious these days after "losing" the odd changing room in the past....even when they have been playing well for him (Aus after 03)
Daly went really well on the Lions tour, at wing, but within a team that was picked for a reason. It also was a team that moved Farrell to 12 and had the advantage of the best 13 in the 6Ns to pull things together!
I think England had every chance post 2015 to move on but failed to do so in too many places - regardless of the RWC Final they got to. Never quite understood how Care had pissed off so much either!
