    @MiketheSnow looks to have about the right amount of Davies' and Jones', bit lacking on Evans' and Williams' though.

      England squad to play Wales:-

      England: Daly; McConnochie, Joseph, Francis, Cokanasiga; Ford, Heinz; Genge, Cowan-Dickie, Cole, Launchbury, Itoje, Lawes, Ludlam, B Vunipola.

      Replacements: George, Marler, Sinckler, Kruis, Singleton, Youngs, Farrell, Tuilagi

      Well, we're fucked at the breakdown unless Ludlam is a lot quicker than he looks.

          Not sure about that, he can't be as tall as Ardie Savea for instance?

            You won't catch Ardie being named in the front row.

                      @MiketheSnow Nice try but you’re not claiming underdog status. Not at home with a near full strength squad you’re not.

                        Nice try.

                        You're down Curry, but you were for most of the first encounter, and you stuffed us.

                        Add in Itoje, and Farrell on the bench and you most certainly are the favourite.

                            Wales already had a better match compared with last weekend.

                              Halfpenny fecks up a high ball. Don't see that very often.

                                        Deliberate knock down by Watson with a 2-man overlap.

                                        Yellow card.

                                        Wales take the quick pen and two deft kicks from Biggar and North goes over
