[2015 RWC] Warm Up Match: England vs France (15/08/2015)

Sorry but Corbs is not a international prop ATM.

But sadly if Brookes is out he will be in.

Corbs getting munched

So by this referees opinion it's ok to do what you fancy after the ball is dead . Well let's get Clarke on some headbutts then !?!

Let's start dislocating a few elbows - only after the whistle, mind!

Sorry but Corbs is not a international prop ATM.

But he was great several years ago, pre-law change!!1!!!!!!11

 

[Bada-Bing!]

Scrum not going well either.

 

[ratsapprentice]

Corbs needs to show he can scrummage straight.

 

[Tony Manx]

Corns should not even be in the squad..... He is not the player he was before jnjury and rule change!

 

[ZeroTwo]

Spedding has been outstanding today. Top french player.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

LCD, Kruis and a Crobs with Brookes in it are not going to make it ATM.

36 and Burrell must be on a knife edge, potentially both might not make it.

Clark might be 50/50 but doubt it.

 

[Maverick1987]

Can't believe how much Antonio is getting away with boring in

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Clarke absolutely flattened by a back 3 player - not his day

 

[Maverick1987]

There we go the minute he has to drive straight Corbs has him on toast

 

[ZeroTwo]

Corbs needs to show he can scrummage straight.

Think he heard you.

 

[ratsapprentice]

Much better from Alex - kept his shoulder out and his hips in. Good effort.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

When Youngs is being made to look like a lineout God you know things are not quite right.

 

[Bada-Bing!]

Yep LCD ain't going to make the final squad throwing like that.

 

[Maverick1987]

When Youngs is being made to look like a lineout God you know things are not quite right.

LCD just isn't quite ready . The pressure is getting to him imo

 

[Tony Manx]

Pretty crap 2nd half!

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Can't see LCD going to the RWC now.

Barnes seems to think George is 4th choice ATM, but I'd be surprised if he wasn't pencilled in as 2nd.

 

[McTallshort]

England are the new Australia

 

[TRF_Olyy]

May has gone very well tonight.
Haskell has made a good impact, too - it's a shame he had to come on at 8 (though I can understand them only wanting to give Morgan 40) as I'd have liked to see him on the flank.

 

[LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan)]

Reckon the squad is looking like this ATM:

1) Marler, Vunipola
2) Youngs, George, Webber
3) Cole, Brookes, Wilson
4) Launch, Attwood
5) Lawes, Parling
6) Haskell, Wood,
7) Robshaw
8) Bunipola, Morgan
9) Youngs, Wigglesworth, Care
10) Ford, Farrell
11) May, Nowell
12) Barritt, Slade
13) Joesph,
14) Watson
15) brown, Goode

With Clark or Burgess making it 31.

That's what I think Lancaster will have in his head now.
