I don't believe Slade is helping his win percentage at all. Any other 12 or 13 would be better, even first game out.

Marcus Smith to be dropped. Daly to start.

It means they think it has been decided but the paper wants to cover themselves in case they have been given false information.

And he has inside information from 2023 at least as he is Henry Arundell’s father in law.Six Nations: Will Carling questions quality of England coaches

He's correct, they aren't doing the blitz system any more. In fact they don't appear to be right any system.
If he was my father in law I'd be more keen to know if he smashed are now Kings at the time Mrs.

He seems to toe the party line in exchange for inside information and early team news.
It's all the insight he ever seems to have and even that's usually wrong

Is the party line celebrating Marcus Smith's struggles then? Because that's what one paragraph comes across as what it is doing.
It's a bizarre article when the background is switching Marcus for Daly. There's no upside here.

I suspect of the media and pundits will defending it. Can't see many wondering if it's the wrong decision.
It's not the right decision either imo. We had ~3years of Daly looking terrified and never breaking the line at FB. Marcus should get a bit more than 6 games if they're going to experiment like this
I don’t disagree that Daly shouldn’t be included now, I do however think he was very good going forward and did a hell of a lot of good, defensively he was a bit suspect at times though.
I feel like he was a much better winger than FB (despite his debut against the Boks). He's the absolute poster child of being jerked about by EJ though and that wouldn't help anyone
