[QUOTE="Crapspray, post: 617845, member: 58918"] I'd say the opposite. England's pack has gone through few changes since then and that's the main reason why it's so far ahead of the backs in development. That and coaching. If fit, Parling would be on the bench. Corbs, Hartley, and Cole is our first choice front row at the moment. Croft would be pushing Wood hard for his place and vice-versa if Wood wasn't injured in 2012. Lawes was also injured during the 2012 Six Nations. So really only Launchbury and Billy Vunipola are the changes to the starting pack. The bench has seen a greater turnover though. That said, Webber is third-choice and Morgan is there as well. Wilson was around then too. [/QUOTE]
