[QUOTE="Jimbo, post: 906615, member: 77204"] When you put it all in perspective it wasn’t horrific for England, concerning how many points they leaked, but there were some good points to, if you factor in the altitude, couple of things like Daly missing the ball and the ref being inconsistent at the breakdown in it could have been worse. The Ford Faz axis works well on the front foot but when we are not, really require a plan b, maybe Faz at 10 and a big hitter like Barret would offer a little more resilience in defence. Itoje needs dropping he is just conceding too many pens. If we are going to continue accepting we will concede too many try’s and rely on outscoring opposition rather than nullifying their attacks cips is defiantly worth a shot. Not that wings are an issue but I would like to see wade get a shot anyone who watches Wasps will know he no longer has the defensive vulnerability he had in the past and can literally strike from anywhere at any time, closest thing England have to a Jason Robinson currently. Only comment on Robshaw is he simply isn’t up to the job. [/QUOTE]
