[QUOTE="Bullitt, post: 307508"] I can imagine it now: Martin Johnson has thrown caution to the wind for Saturdays crucial fixture with France, naming a changed squad from that which started the 15-all draw at Murrayfield. Commenting on his selection, Johnson said "There were plenty of positives to take away from Murrayfield and we've watched the tape and found the best way forward. "We've been very pleased with the game-plan and we're clearly progressing in a direction which is best for England rugby. "We had a couple of injuries and fitness problems which were worrying, but so long as these guys pass the late tests they should all be ready. The guys we have brought in look right for England and we feel this is the way forward. England XV vs France: 1. Tim Payne 2. Steve Thompson 3. <strike>Andy</strike> Dan Cole 4. Steve Borthwick 5. Ben Kay 6. Neil Back 7. Richard Hill 8. Lawrence Dallaglio 9. Matt Dawson 10. Rob Andrew 11. Tony Underwood 12. Jerry Guscott 13. <strike>Will Carling</strike> Mike Tindall 14. Alexander Obolensky 15. Jason Robinson 16. George Chuter 17. Jullian White 18. Martin Johnson 19. Louis Deacon 20. Andy Gommersall 21. Jonny Wilkinson 22.
