[QUOTE="Ragey Erasmus, post: 886402, member: 56232"] The issue is that Jones explicitly stated he wanted numerous options for each position and yet at 9 and 15 in particular has never made any attempt to play anyone except his favourites. If Brown, Care or Youngs suffer injury or a drop in form we are left with relative inexperience in a world cup. He doesn't need to win this 6N, he does need to get proper depth in the squad in all positions. We gain absolutely nothing playing Brown, Hartley, Robshaw and Haskell every game they are free. If Brown is the safe option that means there is even less reason to play him, we know exactly what he offers and now we need to see what the others offer. It's the one aspect of Jones' coaching that I just can't fathom at all. [/QUOTE]
