Prop Bower returns to Leicester after 6 years with Worcester

RP is the pinnacle of journalism and professionalism. They'd never allow misspelling or any biases

We have to be happy with progress at prop, lock which was a real worry before this season, the rise of Aumua and Vaai with Taukei’aho and Holland to come

Loosies considering three guys are injured

We have 6 quality props now which is staggering

Albornoz at 10 over DMac as well. Marcus Smith has been very good but is guilty by association with England's terrible results.

Scotland have probably been the most underrated team imo and should be sitting a bit higher in the rankings. They were in no one a walk over and outside of the ABs and Springboks would have been the wallabies toughest opponents to date. Not sure where all this harsh criticism and expectations are for a team rebuilding is coming from

That he's talking about valuing the players experience so much is pretty much his anxiety in his own lack of experience. I think it's wrong at this point to fall back on a lesser version of experience in the players, just create your own sharp learning curves but going for it.

Gee you're lucky if that's it for you, me its Dmac getting benched at the end and not getting much of a chance to see players he's selected on the bench. I have the same sentiment with all the young hookers coming north from Canterbury, what's with them and the lower south bringing though so many atm. Surely one of them simply has look a little like Kevin, I'd just be happy with that!

At the moment Marcus Smith is the only creative spark this team has going for it. There is 0 chance he's being dropped, save injury. If you want our backs to get into the game more it's Wigglesworth (and possibly Borthwick) who need to go, not Smith. If you drop Ford or Fin into this current system, you won't see them play how you're hoping they will play. The rest of the backline just isn't setup for it.

Lord, Holland, Kirifi, AJ Lam, Love. All with the team and I'd have to imagine champing at the bit. Good on Razor for not selecting them if they weren't hitting that mark though, if they haven't yet found that inner desire to repesent their country. Lakai looked completely blaise for me and I wouldn't select him again.
