    England match day squad for the French game. One Steady Eddie leftfield selection is that of Ashton instead of Nowell, considering the impact Nowell had last week. However, apart from that, not much to moan about.

    England team to play France:

    Daly; Ashton, Slade, Tuilagi, May; Farrell, Youngs; M Vunipola, George, Sinckler, Lawes, Kruis, Wilson, Curry, B Vunipola

    Replacements: Cowan-Dickie, Cole, Moon, Launchbury, Hughes, Robson, Ford, Nowell

    @Catogrande that Wilson, Curry, Billy front row is gonna get slaughtered. Loose trio looks pretty slow too.

      Don't have to be fast if you start running from offside.

      Hoping France pull out an 80 minute performance and the offside line is policed.

            As long as we have a Vunipola in both the front and back rows then all is right with the world.

            I think.

              Makes sense for Joseph for sure that is his full time gig but the having your head coach getting back for training Monday at earliest for a fixture in Singapore of all places seems...uh... sub-optimal.

              Mighty have a cheeky punt on the Sharks.

                  @MiketheSnow Work or Snow in Hokkaido?

                  Both.

                  Ski instructor in SW Hokkaido

                  https://www.instagram.com/mikethesnow/

                  I first skied Niseko like most people, took a look around at all the Australians and Kiwis, ever since I've been going to Furano, Tomamu and Kurodake. Less like Bali on snow...

                  It's changed.

                  Lot less Australians and way more SE Asians.

                  Base myself in Niseko Hirafu because that's where my customers own propreties.

                  But mainly ski Kiroro, Rusutsu and Niseko Moiwa.

                  Just did a 10-day roadie hitting the bigger and smaller resorts around Hakodate and Asahikawa.

                  Magic.

                  Had great fun there last Feb. Still many Aussies, not so many Kiwis.

                  Was in Alps this week. Saw Official All Black Support van in Les Carroz on Tuesday.

                                      Scotland doing a good job of beating Scotland here. Awful handling, defence to match.

                                        Scot v Ire about to kick off. Best & Co look very stressed and wound-up. Not a good sign.

                                        They’re looking a little less stressed now!

                                        True that. More please Jacob.

                                        I did like Rory's reaction/celebration/congratulations after that try.
                                        All the backs jumping all over each other, Rory just walks up, grabs him by the neck, gives a small nod, walks away.
                                        “That'll do Pig, that'll do”.
