[QUOTE="Zed, post: 754372, member: 38503"] Yeah I pretty much agree with most of this. And I'm constantly bemused by Mike Brown being lauded as the best fullback in the world. He's a good solid fullback that rarely makes mistakes, that is it. He's not got a patch on someone like Cullen or Folau or even someone like Iain Balshaw when he was playing well. Josh Lewesy too. Players that need to go - Farrell, Burgess, Barritt all need to go. None of them offer anything in attack and there's barely been a line break from anyone of them this world cup. I think Brown is fine as a backup fullback, but a quicker, more elusive fullback is needed as a starting 15. Does the winger Watson(?) play fullback? He'd be ideal.And England need a no 8 that is fit. Vunipola, Morgan, Easter all carrying way too much lard for elite athletes. Lancaster also needs to go. He may have some coaching ability, but he needs to take some of the blame for this clusterf*ck that is England's World Cup. [/QUOTE]
