Has Billy got previous for high tackles in the Premiership?
Lawes would be terrible for our scrum, as our props need to additional ballast.Main reason I wanted him to at least serve some bench time is that he's been underperforming for years.
Yes I definitely prefer my locks to be taller. I generally prefer heavier too, but that's the least of my issues there.
When previously advocating Lawes at lock for this tournament I've been clear that goes against my general bigger is better front 5 principles. But also noting that his weight stacks up fine against the Irish lads and many others.
Launch had a disaster year with Wasps and then quite a big injury whilst in Japan to be taken too seriously I'd think. Massive shame because he is the amount of work he can get though in match would be incredibly useful right now to EnglandLies, damned lies and all that, but it paints a picture.
Separately. Wonder whether Launch was ever seriously in the picture.
What, like this?Seriously - get together a Baa-Baas team from the various tier 1 nations, give them a couple of days training together followed by good nights on the p*ss and if they didn't beat us I reckon they'd come pretty damned close.

Shambolic isn't it.Farrell's hearing started at 7:30am this morning and still no announcement
Billy's hearing also today but they're not announcing it until tomorrow
Why is every level of this sport an unmitigated **** show?
Not a position we're exactly stacked with superstars either at the moment.Johnny Hill still in camp, based on Ben Youngs' insta story
Which lock's a doubt now?
