When you see the requirements of a 12 from the media, they need to carry like a juggernaut and be a defensive rock whilst also being Usain Bolt fast, have the footwork of Shane Williams, the offloading of Sonny Bill and the passing and creativity of Finn Russel.All jokes aside, Earl probably would do a good to average job as an international 12. I don't think he would be better than some decent 12s but England don't really have any decent 12s

He isn’t the only one I’ve recently heard saying that. Ben Youngs was saying it’s basically the lowest priority.
Yeah it seems as though they’re actually coming out and saying it now they’ve retired !

All that time spent on our set piece and defence and it wasn’t even that good.
Still not sure it is considering all the effort put in to it.

Sounds like the backs only practised rucking by the sounds of things!

It would be nice if the actions matched the words for once. And I am one of the most optimistic posters here!

Very clear
The GBR pod with May said it was Defence, Set Piece, Break Down then attack. If i recall the coaches had to fight to get time for attack drills etc. Seems like situation no change.
I had to chuckle when I read "Daly says they want to entertain against Ireland" and "Wigglesworth, however, has called for patience from the Twickenham faithful while England continue to fine-tune their attack"Six Nations 2024: England 'clear' on how to attack Ireland, says Elliot Daly

******* Wigglesworth.
Never, ever think you're suffering from imposter syndrome, in any scenario, until he makes a full confession.

I wonder where this ‘we want to play entertaining rugby’ is coming from in camp.
I hope they realise that forward play with some good pods, a strong maul and bone crunching tackles are also entertaining.
