"Where are they now"
All the discarded English coaches Andy Farrell Ireland Mike Catt Ireland Stuart Lancaster Leinster Graham Rowntree Munster You probably realise I'm Irish but all these coaches discarded by England have signed 2 year contracts at least to stay in their jobs. You can't say Ireland Leinster or Munster are playing rubbish at the moment. So it wasn't the coaches that was the problem for England. THE PLAYERS They are not coming through with the quality they should for a country that has ten times more players than many of the other countries. Under 20's lose to Italy The RFU have no idea what's happening Yet they have a World Cup winning coach Sir Clive Woodward as a TV pundit and Daily Mail critic. Eddie Jones ,Australian Head coach ,Anthony Seibold Australian ,defence coach all on big money I've lived in England for 50 years and I do care This will probably come back to bite me in the b-m at Twickenham. |

Where are you getting your playing numbers from? It's a common misconception that England has the most registered players, but in reality they only rank 3rd (382,154 players) behind South Africa (405,438 players) and France (542,242 players). I personally think England have got the player base and money to be doing a lot better than they have, it's the managers that are holding them back, picking their out of form favourites, not blooding-in new players - looking at you here, Eddie Jones. |

Player base yes vision beyond the boys club from Jones absolutely not.
Still no Radwan - recall May I half expect he picks curry at 9 as Youngs instead 100% its a absolute shambles- I would love to see Dean Richards at the helm would be a completely different team - firstly they would all want it every te they touched the pitch

We have been waiting on Tuilagi to deliver consistently for more than a decade now. Sanderson of Sale said last week MT is in the best shape of his life. Either that is b****cks or Jones has again broken another player at training. Either way we cannot rely on him ever being consistently fit enough to be a serious part of a world cup or any other campaign-we need to look elsewhere

It’s so long since I played rugby but I can’t recall anybody being injured training or even warning up before the game. They must be Formula 1 players as opposed to us Ford Cortina in my era.
Talking about moving Henry Slade to 12. If he plays 13 that’s it Bring a regular 12

Tuilagi can't have long left playing now, his hamstring must be shot to pieces for it to keep going like this.
