England 2023/24

[Lé Ddanno]

He's only 26 TBF I feel he could still become a international winger

What what Joe Cokanasiga is 26?? It feels like he's been failing to hit the international squad since like 2012

Sinfield staying on but only during international periods and doesn't sound like a particularly set role

Sounds an odd role, but I guess retention was SB's main objection after Walters and Jones. Losing another coach popular with the players might have started to look careless.

Still doesn't scream of stability and structure.

Well paid for a part time mentor, and kicking coach....

Isiekwe and Ewels called up to replace Coles and Martin

How many chances does Ewels get? It's not even like he puts in good performances for England - he's crap and then he gets sent off

Hopefully Martin just needs a week off and it's a short term replacement - I didn't see the game, anyone know what the injury is/was?

Edit: just seen Martin is rehabbing with England but Coles isn't which I guess hints at lengths of injury

He needed a break after the sheer physicality of the opposition on Saturday....
