Squad Announcements

With the best tournament in rugby kicking off in exactly 4 weeks then any idea when the squads will be announced? I am guessing an usual most countried will announce an extended squad first off then whittle it down nearer the time.

I hope we wait until after at least one HEC game.

After next weekend I guess would be the ideal time, any later and your virtually on top of the tournament

I imagine the squad will be together from the Monday after the last round robin HEC weekend, so it will have to be announced before the second HEC weekend.

Apparently England EPS is announced on Wednesday. Will have to wait and see

read it somewhere today, can't remember where exactly, but it was on the tinterwebs so there is a high chance of it being rollocks.

Just snooped around and couldn't find a date. But England have announced it around the 10th of January the last two years, you could be correct in thinking next Wednesday which would be the 9th of Jan.

Are the Welsh boys going to Spala again?

I think it has run its course a bit now, it had or has its advantages but during the AIs we looked lethargic so I reckon freshness over fitness might be worth a shot this time.
