[QUOTE="Every Time Ref, post: 739825, member: 71826"] He has ability no doubt but since he's been at inside for England he hasn't really bent the line that hard, his hands and decision making have been fairly shaky and he has felt anonymous much of the time. I can't think of a recent game where he's really felt threatening. With Twelvetrees I don't mean he makes noticeable howlers, but regular wrong decisions and/or positioning. I'm remembering the Australia game for example (I think the last time he started?) feeling he was a bit lost all the time. ...which suits a blindside's skillset better than a 12's, as Ford said all along. Agree entirely. I don't know why Australia have been messing around trying to work out what their best 10-12 combo is, 12 should've been nailed on, they just needed to decide between Foley, Giteau and (ha!) Cooper at 10. [/QUOTE]
