England's starting 13
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/rugbyunion/club/10330736/Manu-Tuilagi-ruled-out-of-Englands-autumn-internationals-with-torn-pectoral-muscle.html
With Tuilagi out for the autumn internationals, who would you have as starting 13? We have a host of guys who can play there (Trinder, Joseph, May, Tomkins) but no standouts.

I think this could be a real chance to see what other guys can offer like we did in Argentina but I think Lancaster will probably favor Joseph given that he's been around the squad. I agree, I really would like to have seen Lowe given his shot after that great season he had with Quins, just unfortunate with injury

Re: England's starting 13
Well we've still got a month - so they could recover and the likes of Joseph could hit major form etc...
If Tuilagi is defo out and Eastmond recovers...id be quite interested in seeing him and 36 in the centres just swapping on different plays, attack and defence etc...

Re: England's starting 13
Depending on the back three I'd probably take a look at two different styles of centre play, starting either the big, offloading Tomkins or Burrell with the versatile Eastmond or Joseph coming of the bench for half an hour.

I'd really like to see Elliot Daly involved against Fiji or Argentina (are we playing both?) at some point. He looks the real deal, big boot as well.

Re: England's starting 13
Are you not better starting with 15 (although 13 should be enough against the Aussies)
I'll leave quietly.
