Sharples wasn't in the game.

Annoying that last season he was on fire and missed out, and since his form has dropped off he gets in. Not really doing the player justice.

I'd give Sharples a standard 6, he done ok for debut but missed an easy tackle on Bonnaire and done little with ball in hand (not really his fault).

Barritt, Robshaw & Corbs would be around the 7/8 marks, they played better than Sharples but to be fair it was more a game for the forwards. Both Robshaw & Corbs tackled and carried well in the tight which is what we need really.

Croft must have been a 9/10 on the performance, thought that was up there with his best ever game for England - lineout was immense, breakdown work and workrate exceptional and he had the confidence to run again.

Thought Dan Cole was a beast again - never really realised just how much work he does at the breakdown, slows ball down, steals ball - had a great scrum as well this week.

Only forward that didnt impress me was Botha - you can't fault the guys workrate or how often he puts his body on the line, but would much rather see Lawes, Parling or even Attwood playing instead of him - would probably have Garvery there instead too.

There's definitely a lot more to come from Sharples - the yellow card completely destroyed his confidence - I was very impressed with Ashton's defence, nothing seems to get passed him and when you have him, Strettle and Foden together there cant be many better backthree defences around?

My opinion of Botha has improved this 6N , think he's stuck in the enforcer role and just does the hard graft. I don't think Attwood does much more than Botha.

Ashton needs dropping for Ireland game a kick up the arse could be what he needs to re find some form. I didn't think Sharples was that bad actually just lost his confidence a bit with the card.

For Ireland i'd line up with

1.Alex Corbisero
2.Dylan Hartley
3.Dan Cole
4.Matt Garvey
5.Geoff Parling
6.Tom Croft
7.Chris Robshaw
8.Ben Morgan

9.Lee Dickson
10.Owen Farrell
11.Charlie Sharples
12.Brad Barritt
13.Manu Tuilagi
14.Johnny May
15.Ben Foden

16.Rob Webber 17.Paul Doran-Jones 18.Tom Palmer 19.Tom Wood 20.Ben Youngs 21.Charlie Hodgson 22.Chris Ashton


we've got to treat this game as if France are going to beat Wales 35-0 and we need to win to claim the 6Ns.

That back three could struggle defensively. The only way I would drop Ashton is if Strettle is fit to start.

I wouldnt drop Ashton, think he plays a massive part in our defensive system - he was starting to look for the ball a bit more too against France.

I wouldnt consider May until he's had some time in the Saxons, cracking prospect but you dont want to repeat the Matthew Tait experience, especially against the Irish.

Shouldn't drop Ashton. We stuck with Croft when he could have been dropped and it worked out. We know Ashton can do it and there is know obvious replacement for him. (Whereas there was for Youngs)

I would not play may for another season. I would start sharples and strettle. Sharples is the form wing in the country and also his kick chase almost bought rewards a few times and we kick a lot. There was Also another one where If tuilagi had kicked sharples would have had a try. Think our team needs to learn that his gas offers different options to most wings.

Driver, Pooly - can't remember which one of you said this first but BBC are just saying that Dean Richards will be appointed at Falcons when his ban expires

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/rugby-union/17346781

Reckon you could end up doing a Harlequins, year in Championship and then coming back very, very strong.

You'd have a huge pool for them, think he's the sort of name that would attract them in and then keep them there, as so many players have come through and then join other clubs for success.

Part of me wanted Wasps to go down, so we could regroup and do what Saints and Quins have done, with the youth we have it would do wonders for us.

Bit concerned atm as McGeechan is targeting a lot of our better players for Bath - they reckon Simpson is top of their shopping list, bad enough losing Webber!

Just a general question to raise some opinions guys. What do people generally think of Dan Lydiate? Hes a fantastic man for the tackle count and leading the defence but offers nothing on attack really. For me he is this generations Joe Worsley! He works in the Welsh backrow because Warburton and Falateu are so well rounded but would he look as good in the English backrow currently. Im not so sure.

I ask this as I was reading a thread on here last night where a Welsh poster stated Ferris would not currently get into the Welsh backrow over Dan Lydiate. On current form Ferris is probably the best BS in the world and is better at all facets of the game then Lydiate. I just can't see the attraction to Lydiate. If I were picking a Lions side Ferris/Croft/SOB would all get in before him for me anyways

What do you guys think?

Ferris is different class to Lydiate.

I like Lydiate, great tackler and works hard, but not in the same league as Ferris.

Ferris and Kaino are a class above anyone at BS. Juan Smith is also when fit and firing.

I havent been massively impressed with Faletau this 6N. Think he has been slightly overated by a lot of people. Good player dont get me wrong, but not this world beater that some people make him out to be.

I read the same thread SJE and I could see both sides of the argument.

Ferris is a better player than Lydiate and is definitely 100% a better ball carrier. I do however think that Lydiate is underated by some, his workrate is phenomenal. Individually, Warburton is the only Welsh back row forward that would walk into the English, Irish, French or even Italian back row.

However, the Welsh back row as a unit have just clicked for whatever reason. Would Ferris work as well in the unit? Or would his different game take away from what Warburton and Faletau do? There is unlikely to ever be a conclusive answer to that question unless the Lions back row is Ferris, Warburton, Faletau, and then we will see.

I can see why Welsh posters would say they would not take Ferris over Lydiate right now, as like I said the Welsh back row as a unit, works as well if not better than any other back row in the world right now.

The thing with the Welsh backrow is its all about balance.

I read the same thread (the guy also said Tuilagi & Hartley were awful on Sunday which annoyed me a little lol. Hd also followed this up stating Hartley wouldn't be near a Lion jersey....like this had anything to do with his Sunday performance......and then said 3 Welsh hookers would be ahead of him, at that point I stopped reading)

Anyway.....Ferris is very good at what he does, big carries/tackles but would he suit the balance of the Welsh backrow? I'm not sure. He is a better player than Lydiate but Lydiate does a lot of the dirty work in the tight which allows Falateu & Warburton to have a little free roam in the loose.

I'm starting to see this with England also with Robshaw. It's no coincidence that Croft has it form as he doesn't need to be around the tight areas as Robshaw takes on the 1st phase tackles & hard yards. This frees up Croft to get in at the breakdown and carry in the fringes.

Think I'm trying to say a backrow is all about balance rather than individual brilliance.

Yeah i could see the Welsh lads point but surely Ferris brings the same work rate if not better. He has out tackled Lydiate every week so far and just brings a completly different dimension to the attack.

I think the Welsh backrow is all about big defence but relys on Warburton to do an awful lot. Take him out of that backrow and it doesnt work. The Welsh could have better out and out poachers in there like Pocock/Brussow but it wouldnt work for me as there would be no carrying game.

If you put Joe Worsley (a player the Welsh derided for most of his career) into that backrow over Lydiate would the performance be much different?

Think Falateu was hyped up to early Nick. Hes a great talent but is still only learning the game. Theres not an awful lot of difference between him and Morgan to be honest. Priestland has struggled a bit this 6 nations as well. Came on to the scene and looked electric but is still only really learning the game at international level and needs time. Like us though the Welsh are jsut as guilty for hyping up the new messiahs

The out-tackling Lydiate every week is a misleading stat.

Ferris has had to make tackles as Ireland have at times been under the cosh. Wales have had a lot of ball so Lydiate hasn't had to make tackles.

I agree it can be misleading because of the amount of possession both sides had but Ferris has still been Irelands top tackler for the last 3 weeks running. Surely that points to a least a comparable work rate to Lydiate? I'd argue only Kaino at BS has a better workrate then Ferris

I would say you would struggle for a harder working flanker than Schalk Burger. Makes millions of tackles and carries.

For me Ferris is a class above Lydiate but all about balance. For me the welsh backrow would be much better with ferris.

Faletau may also start to play better as not the only ball carrier. he has been average this 6n but its just a case of 2nd season syndromw and he will be better for it

Don't know if this has been discussed but what do people think about Sarries saying they wont let Farrell stay coaching England?

Seems to have played a very important role in helping them improve this season - will Lancaster get the job? After Robshaw, Moody and others have come out and said yes I can't see how he couldnt?

I actually agree Matt. We have done great defensively but apart from some individual moments of brilliance we haven't done much at all attacking wise.

Farrell has stepped up well but hasn't been as good as made out to me. Yes his tackling was superb at the weekend and it was a lovely pass but he missed a fairly simple kick at goal and his tactical kicking was off for most of the game. Wasnt fantastic at getting us moving at times either. This has just been glossed over though

Some of Farrells kicking out of hand was appalling.

the game v Ireland could show whether the win and 3 tries against France was progress or a fluke!

Agree Nick.

The RFU are pretty spineless and Lancaster will not challenge them so will probably get the job.

MAllet is demanding and will make the RFU try and do things his way so will prob not get the job

Cuthbert, Warburton, Lydiate, Philips, Malzieu, Maestri, Harinodoquy, Parisse, Sexton, Ryan, Denton, Rennie.


Whilst all are fine players I am not sure how there are 5 from sides who have only won 50% of their matches and 3 from sides that have won 0, yet no Englishmen, despite us having won 3 from 4 and being sat in second.

Cuthbert, Lydiate and Sexton wouldn't be on my shortlist.

Dusatoir should be on there along with Richie Gray and Dan Cole

I'd say Jones probably edges him through the tournament to be honest, but not sure how Sexton, Ryan or Cuthbert are on there.

Halfpenny has been Wales best back 3 player.
Sexton, Ryan, Malzieu are stupid calls.
