I do not dislike Tuilagi!!!
I think he's a good player, but how can I be the only one who doesn't see that his flaws are outweighing his positives right now??
He is young, and if he learns he will be a very good player, but he made many more mistakes on saturday than he made correct decisions. Maybe I'm looking too much at it from an analysts point of view, maybe I'm not giving him enough credit for the hard work he did so I'll give him credit...
He carried very strongly,
He came in and attacked the 10 channell regularly, tieing up Roberts often,
If i'm honest that's all I have, his defence was ok first half without really being tested, and 2nd half he was directly responsible for the first Williams break and he looked a bit weary late on (recent injury perhaps)
He may well get stronger with more game time under his belt, and show me what he is capable of V France and Ireland, but for me he was just ok on saturday, little more.
And it's not that I'm welsh, the centres all nullified each other and Preistland was poor, plus I think Farrell and Barritt are the future of Englands midfeild, with an injury free on form Flood at 10 they have a potential world class partnership.
So there I can argue till I'm blue in the teeth...

Someone once said picking Tuilagi for England is a no-brainer - That can be interpreted in 2 ways.

Re: I do not dislike Tuilagi!!!
Can anyone confirm whether the universal pronunciation from commentators of Tuilagi as 'Too-y-langi' is correct or not? Is there meant to be a 'n' in there?

In Samoan the letter "G" is pronounced as "NG", the general commentators' pronunciation isn't too far off. Except sometimes the "a" sound is mispronounced, it should be 'Too-ee-lahn-ghee'.

Don't you mean the common English pronunciation of G is NG?!
