Head scratching England squad selections? By Eddie Jones?
I'm shocked, I tell you - shocked!
i'm looking forward to seeing the Smith/Farrell combo. Big fan of Smith's game play.Watched Ford play against Wasps and all he wanted to do was kick the leather off the ball. It’s Smith‘s time now IMO.
Just hoping he doesn’t play Curry at 8.

I wouldn't mind seeing the back of Farrell full stop. EJ needs to end his infatuation with him.Owen Farrell has suffered an injury setback in training at Saracens and is likely to miss the Scotland game.
IMO he shouldn’t play in this tournament now. He hasn’t played a game since November.

Even more frustrating that the only way we can play the captain Jones has selected is to play him out of position at the expense of better specialist inside centres.It's a poor effort that we're entering the 7th year of Jones's time in charge and we've never been able to settle on an inside centre

Exactly, that's why Box Kick Ben has so many caps.And not using players in the way that works for them. Farrell is good at 10 for Saracens because they have big fucker at 12 and a ball playing 15 to essentially run a second back line behind Farrell's midfield options. Does Jones play that way? Does he fuck.
Or the best fly half in Europe, if not the world. I didn’t realise George Ford was still only 28 years old.Owen Farrell has now been ruled out of the entire Six Nations. Harsh as it sounds, it's good news for England not to have to shoe-horn him into the XV and instead play a specialist 12 at 12 while starting the process of building the team around Marcus Smith at 10.

Based on club form I'll put it out there that Ireland will be very good in the 6N this year. The only area where we are lacking good cover these days is at outhalf where none of the possibles have really put up their hand to take over from Sexton.
But what I hope is that every country will be able to play their best teams against each other, with no Covid disruption. It should be a great tournament with plenty of tight matches.
Ireland look very settled. They're going to have problems if Sexton isn't available, but that's been the case for years now and they always seem to keep him available. Keenan at full back is very important to them as well.
France have it won if they don't brainfart at key moments in matches. Big if though.
Scotland and Wales will have their moments and should be pretty competitive.
England will do what they always do. Look absolutely devastating at times and capable of beating any rugby team on the planet, but not for a whole game. In at least one game they will be total dogshit and ruin their chances of winning the tournament. Various selection problems at 9, 12 and across the back row will stop them being a cohesive team over 5 matches. At least the fly half position has been resolved for them by circumstances.
