[QUOTE="Grizwald, post: 1210827, member: 71892"] England don't really have much of a chance do they? France are just man for man the better side. I think Steward out is pretty harsh for the lad, he's gone from being the first name on the team sheet to coming back in when required and dropped out the 23 on more than one ocassion I can think of now. Ben Curry to the bench is also a bit of a snub, Ben Earl's form has dropped a bit. Very happy to see Willis at 8. If you're dropping Steward completely be that rationale I'd drop CCS from the bench and take a look at Ted Hill, I hope he gets a game this tournament. All the commentary is France don't kick to compete so you can get away with M Smith at FB, but also that France/French teams just aren't great under the highball so you're loosing putting up more contestable kicks without Steward or the likes of Roebuck on the wing.
