      Yeah with the players in the backline and the expected physicality I would have gone with a 6-2 slpit

          England team to face Italy

          England: Daly; Watson, Slade, Farrell (capt), May; Ford, Youngs; M Vunipola, Cowan-Dickie, Sinckler, Itoje, Hill, Lawes, Curry, B Vunipola.

          Replacements: George, Genge, Stuart, Ewels, Earl, Willis, Robson, Malins.

          Lawrence paying the price for Farrell's poor game. Good to see LCD get a start at hooker following George's invisible display last week.

          Yeah that was probably his only England game. Edited likes to do that, one test then dropped forever!

          It's only Italy, and with ford at ten, many cracks will be papered over.

            If both teams play liked last weekend, Scotland by a fair bit. But how often are they consistent? So it should be close

                Haha not in Edinburgh, will be borderline freezing tho. If the backs see as much ball as England's they will die of hypothermia!

                I did have one weekend, my first, in St Andrews where it got down to -16, and the harbour froze enough to bounce pebbles off. Mrs Mach said WTF are we doing living here!?

                      I really don't know what Jarrod Evans has to do to make the 23

                      If both teams play liked last weekend, Scotland by a fair bit. But how often are they consistent? So it should be close

                      Temperature in Scotland MINUS 22.

                      Haha not in Edinburgh, will be borderline freezing tho. If the necks see as much ball as England they will die of hypothermia!

                      I did have one weekend, my first, in St Andrews where it got down to -16, and the harbour froze enough to bounce pebbles off. Mrs Mach said WTF are we doing here!?

                      That walk to Murrayfield is like the Retreat from Stalingrad regardless of the time of the year.

                      Saw U2 in June and froze my balls off.

                            England team to face Italy

                            England: Daly; Watson, Slade, Farrell (capt), May; Ford, Youngs; M Vunipola, Cowan-Dickie, Sinckler, Itoje, Hill, Lawes, Curry, B Vunipola.

                            Replacements: George, Genge, Stuart, Ewels, Earl, Willis, Robson, Malins.

                            Lawrence paying the price for Farrell's poor game. Good to see LCD get a start at hooker following George's invisible display last week.

                              @booboo Yup he's a lock/6. Often plays 6 for Eddie's Eng, Itoje used to as well, but he doesn't seem to anymore

                                  Might be one of those numbers don't matter things, but really I think it is only Italy. They'll get smashed up front and then the backs can have a field day - as long as Ford does cut out passes beyond 'I only kick and shoulder charge' Farrell so people beyond number 10 actually get the ball. Big Scores! Exciting rugby!

                                    Replacements: George, Genge, Stuart, Ewels, Earl, Willis, Robson, Malins.

                                    Lawrence paying the price for Farrell's poor game. Good to see LCD get a start at hooker following George's invisible display last week.

                                    Am I reading that team tight that Lawes is 6?

                                    Yeah <sigh>, this seems a bit reactionary to me. It is not a step forward. Also not a step backwards to a safety blanket that has proven to work consistently. Missed opportunity IMO.

                                      @Machpants thanks Mac. Kind of my point. I'd have swapped Lawes & Itoje

                                      Might be one of those numbers don't matter things, but really I think it is only Italy. They'll get smashed up front and then the backs can have a field day - as long as Ford does cut out passes beyond 'I only kick and shoulder charge' Farrell so people beyond number 10 actually get the ball. Big Scores! Exciting rugby!

                                          @Machpants shows Murray had an even better game than I thought.

                                          Not a good look for Lowe either.
