[2023 Six Nations] England vs Scotland - 4 February 2023

I know injuries have forced Borthwicks hands and if we had a 12 option I'd have preferred to see Farrell at 10. But Smith looks like he's playing alot more relaxed than he ever did in the Jones era.

Can't afford to drop those 4 points at this level. Farrell not at the races so far.
 
England starting to look like it's clicking. Far more attacking intent than anything under Jones recently.
 
I don't rate Smith as an international 10. For all his threat he can't build an attack, and generally takes the ball on too flat.

Kind of like Russell but I think there's marginally less ego involved.

With age he will mature further. Got to remember Ireland's 10 is very very very mature.
