Steward is the one to bring in.

Put him opposite France's little winger in the scrum cap.

England wing Immanuel Feyi-Waboso ruled out of finale against France

Quote
England wing Immanuel Feyi-Waboso has been ruled out of the Six Nations finale against France on Saturday because of concussion.

Feyi-Waboso, 21, played a starring role in the 23-22 win over Ireland last weekend, but he reported concussion symptoms on Monday.

Attack coach Richard Wigglesworth confirmed Feyi-Waboso will be unavailable for the trip to Lyon.

"We don't take any risks with that sort of stuff," Wigglesworth said.

"There was no major incident. He had a knock and didn't feel quite right, so he reported the symptoms and then was removed accordingly.

"He's obviously gutted, but being the smart lad he is, he reported his symptoms. He did the right thing."

The Exeter Chiefs youngster was a probable starter in Lyon after playing a vital role in Marcus Smith's match-winning drop-goal against Ireland with a powerful carry down the wing in the closing stages.

Elliot Daly, who started England's opening three games ahead of Feyi-Waboso, is likely to regain his place in the line-up.

Referees / captains / coaches have a pre-match meet to agree on how contentious laws will be refereed - then it's up to everyone to stick to those agreed interpretations 

That meeting would take several hours if all contentious laws were discussed!

I’m quite sure that the law states that once the ball is at the No8 feet it must be played unless moving forward. So I’m fairly sure had France been moving he would not have told them to play away

Isn't anyone else mildly concerned about referees deciding how a team should play when they are completely within the law? Isn't the referee's job to enforce the laws as they stand and nothing more? That's not to say that I am not in favour of ending endless scrum resets and teams winning the World Cup on the back of a few dubious scrum penalties - but the correct way to do that is by World Rugby making some law changes.
Crooked feeds plus the scrummage being no more than a way to restart the game as quickly as possible....isn't there another game that decided to do that a long time ago?

That's normal and has been for years.
He is 1 of the few refs who tells teams to use the ball once they've won the scrum.

Sadly, Wales just don't have the team to take on the top teams right now.
Hopefully in a year or 2...

You're right that was a great day of rugby. I certainly didn't give England (or Italy) a chance and they proved me wrong, fair play to both.

It's one reason the 6 Nations is such a great competition. After a few lacklustre games, it always delivers at some point, with any side able to beat another on their day...a bit like Nat 1 really.

Two fantastic games yesterday, especially for the neutrals.

Fingers crossed for more of the same today. It could honestly go either way.

The desire, physicality, and no little  bit of skill was back against a really class side. Would love to have heard the "conversation " in the tunnel at half time though. Roll on next week.
