Ireland vs England

If we'd brought back tait, we could have had both 12 year olds in the squad. *sigh*
To be fair Tait can tackle if people run right at him (unlike Strettle) - it's chasing people he can't do, his body position is almost verticle so he just gets palmed off (like vs Hosea Gear/NZ Maori)

No one's ever been handed off by Hosea Gear before... there's nought that wrong with Tait's defence.
 
As mentioned above, the team has been confirmed as:

Corbisiero,
Hartley,
Cole,
Deacon,
Palmer,
Wood,
Haskell,
Easter,
Youngs,
Flood,
Cueto,
Hape,
Banahan,
Ashton,
Foden

Thompson, Doran-Jones, Shaw, Croft, Care, Wilkinson, Strettle


If Strettle does come on him and Trimble could have a "shouldn't be playing for their country" competition
 
Taking away my bias, there ain't a great deal in it, Cueto's more steady (Trimble has had the odd brain fart for Ulster), but you will not see Cueto do what Trimble did in the video durbutter just posted. You also won't see Cueto put in the kickchases Trimble does, or rip the ball in the tackle the same way Trimble can. I do mean what I say though, I'd always prefer the winger with menace.

Both are streets ahead of Strettle who, unfortunately, just hasn't kicked on and does have questionable defence.

If I were to combine the teams...

Foden
Bowe
BOD
Hape
Ashton
Flood
Youngs
SOB
Wood
Haskell
POC
Palmer
Cole
Hartley
Corbs

Yes, I do think Hape currently is better than D'Arcy.
 
Trimble has a poster of Mark Cueto in his bedroom - Fact.


The best thing about the Video was the kickass run from Mathew Tait :p

Cueto is solid as a rock but I don't see him having the "Flair" (unpredictability) that Trimble has.
