[QUOTE="LeinsterMan (NotTigsMan), post: 896494, member: 70842"] Ageing Youngs is only 28. Wiggy has shown he can't exit in international level so no it doesn't sound at all like i would be happy with Wiggy. I don't blame ford's performance largely of the bad service from the 9, I blame it on the forwards making **** all impact giving him backwards ball. (Same with Leicester before a decent forwards coach came in and kicked them up the arse). I blame the 9 for not being able to take the pressure off Farrell and Ford when it comes to the slow ball if a 9 doesn't box kick and generally having zero control on the game. With Youngs playing around 70% of our clearance kicks in our half came from 9 with May, Watson, Nowell chasing hard, and it allowed us to keep in the game even with a fairly mehish pack. Robson might work if the back row becomes like Wasps backrow with Young, Thompson, Willis, etc etc types in it though. But Robson behind that pack England had will be pretty useless IMO. [/QUOTE]
