[QUOTE="Crapspray, post: 556275, member: 58918"] Really disappointing news about Morgan. Firstly, because he's a good player, but I also read that Lancaster expected it to be a six to eight week injury. If that was the case, why didn't bring in a specialist 8 earlier? We need someone other than Tuilagi who can get past the gain line regardless. I really think we missed a march by not putting Billy Vunipola in this Sunday. We know Wood can cover, and we've got another two blindsides to cover 6 should he move across, so why Vunipola didn't get a run-out I'll never know. The two areas that England have fudged, back-row and back three, are coming round to haunt them. However, on the bright side, unbeaten so far with a several players out of position. Good to see the locks aren't all crocked, as well. The idea of heading to Cardiff with something like Botha and Robson in the engine room would cause sleepless nights. It's still a good chance for fringe players to get a go against good opposition. Especially so for the players everyone wants to see on the pitch (Burns, Twelvetrees, May, Wade, B. Vunipola, etc.). They'll all get to make a claim for the shirt. [/QUOTE]
