Who does Howley hate more than anyone on earth despite scintillating form?
All the nations favourites and most disliked
I want to see everyone make two lists:.
1) who you think the manager of your club / country idolises regardless of form
2) who they dislike regardless of world class form world class talent (I'm talking Clive Woodward Henson/Shane Williams 2005 dislike)... yeah THAT bad!
It seems in Wales, Rob Howley and nearly all the WRU hate anything Ospreys or ex Ospreys. You'd think they would remember that picking Ospreys doesn't necessarily win popularity contests but it does win matches.
Howley love list:
Mike Phillips
Rhys Priestland
Jamie Roberts
Sam Warburton
Matthew Rees
Gethin Jenkins
Easily droppable consistent underperformers who keep getting selected on form of days gone by. No offence to the players personally. Not their fault they keep getting selected.
Howley Gestapo list:
Justin Tipuric
Ryan Jones
Paul James
Richard Hibbard
Dan Biggar
James Hook
Eli Walker
James King
Lee Byrne
Gareth Davies
Dwayne Peel
Ian Gough
Etc etc
Only players who know where "the body's buried" will get picked. Maybe someone told Tipuric?

I trust in Lancaster to pick who he thinks is on form. And to be fair, everyone in the 23 against Scotland was fairly on form either at INT or Club level.

Though I'd give you Farrell and Catt if we can have Connor?
