    It would be a disaster if he appointed Scott Barrett as captain. Apart from the fact it would make Robertson look like he's unable to look outside his Crusader mates - its already bad enough with Richie and Sam. Scott would almost be the final straw for me.

    But he has a much better candidate who seems to tick all the boxes.

      I'm a big Ardie fan, but his captaincy hasn't been great. I'd pick Scott, and I wouldn't care that he goes on a sabbatical next year. That's my prediction

              The Blues have confirmed Tuipulotu is out for 6-7 weeks. I think Robertson will select Strange now

                To state the obvious, if Scott Barrett is not fit for England, we are in big trouble at lock.

                  You would assume they are selecting 4 locks so Strange was always going to be a good chance as the fourth lock. Hopefully Lord is close to full fitness by July.

                        @frugby I always had a bit of time for him, but like Pat Tuipulotu, he's always injured.

                            There is a doco about Razor, premiering on Sky TV June 16. Looks intriguing

                                        It would be a disaster if he appointed Scott Barrett as captain. Apart from the fact it would make Robertson look like he's unable to look outside his Crusader mates - its already bad enough with Richie and Sam. Scott would almost be the final straw for me.

                                        Please pick Scooter. Please pick Scooter. Just please.

                                        I'm a big Ardie fan, but his captaincy hasn't been great. I'd pick Scott, and I wouldn't care that he goes on a sabbatical next year. That's my prediction

                                        Hope Robertson makes his choice on a long-term basis and not just on sabbaticals. Wonder if he'll pick a permanent VC as well.

                                        Grace or Strange have many years ahead of them in black...
