So it's our fault for reading the forums.
There is some kind of analogy with some politics going on at the moment, but I am trying very hard not to go down that route.

Ford and Slade IMO. Then good George, Itoje, Simmons, May, Loz, Daly, Brown. Rest not up to much. Our protection of the ball was awful.LondonTiger wrote:So, did anyone shine today?

Re: England vs Samoa - 25th November
Didn't think anyone had a particularly good game. Very loose and scrappy, lots of mistakes. Too many players looking to make a big impression instead of doing the basics well (lack of players getting stuck in the breakdown dirty work a prime example).

Re: England vs Samoa - 25th November
It's a real shame we don't have a 4th Test with our full-strength side against NZ this Autumn. I think it shows our heightened ambitions that we're smashing opposition with new combinations and still feeling a bit meh.

Scottrf, Itoje is brilliant, but today I thought he had one of his rare poor games, gave away 3 penalties from my count (highlights only), thought Courtney looked good carrying as usual these days, one of the few forwards that did apart from Simmons.
George was okay, but funnily enough when he went off, England suddenly looked threatening and scored three tries. I have heard that about hookers before though.
The player I thought excelled was Brown, back to his best, but has learnt how to pass.

Lawes had great carrying when he came on. Something he has had problems with in the past. Difficult to take down, protected the ball well and added momentum.
Brown looked good. May had his moments too. Seems much more composed.

Simmonds stats pretty impressive - 18 runs 96 m 3rd highest after Daly then Brown. That plus 14 tackles - as many as the Robshaw twins.

We've only seen glimpses, but I honestly think that Lozowski will be an integral part of this England side in the next few years. He is class.

I like the look of Simmonds. With Vunipola and Hughes being fairly similar options, he (and Mercer)offer something different. Jones seems really open to players offering a new angle.lostinwales wrote:Simmonds stats pretty impressive - 18 runs 96 m 3rd highest after Daly then Brown.

Re: England vs Samoa - 25th November
Yes. I still think we do much better with a monster carrier somewhere, but having a guy like Simmonds would add a lot of options, especially if he can keep his workrate up around the park. He seems to have come out of nowhere. (Nice to see someone exactly the same size as me do so well too...)Cyril wrote:I like the look of Simmonds.

Funny how after the summer we had Mark Wilson looking so comfortable in the back row and now he seems to have gone. But I don't think he's missed given the talent that we do have coming through.

Re: England vs Samoa - 25th November
I know the score line was very good.
But the amount of time England got turned over, means England have a lot of work to do before the 6ns.
Still another win for England, the team/squad is looking good going forward to the rugby world cup.

Sorry Lost..... she'd be found out by officials...it ain't worth the attempt. A moustache might get her through a first half but the glue only lasts 58 minutes really.

58 minutes. That is a very precise time. How come you know that number so well?

I over-thought the joke, lost. That's all. I initially thought half time (40mins) would be good enough to get the gist across but then I realised you'd challenge me about her ability to apply more glue during the break! So I tried to incorporate the break time and a little bit of the second half so that the moustache would fall off just as she was scoring her 16th try!

Sunday Times asked Jones (Stephen), Barnes and Dayglo to give their XVs to start the 6Ns. As to be expected some interesting choices, Jones especially:
Watson
May
Daly
Te'o
Nowell
Farrell

Re: England vs Samoa - 25th November
Some random calls...
Daly is the one interesting suggesting from that list. I've had question marks about his defence but you can't argue with his impact when he gets involved in the game. With none of our other 13 options really impressing, could Daly be worth a try?

I think the only massive thing we definitely learned is that we need to play a proper 6 and 7. We can get by with a lock at 6 and Robshaw 7 but the balance ain't quite there.

Ford nailed some beauties yesterday and has impressed massively in that regard this year, I don't think Farrell missing was the problem but the lack of a balanced back row.

Re: England vs Samoa - 25th November
Having watched the highlights package now, what stood out for me was just how shambolic we were at the breakdown. Not having seen the whole game, I do not want to jump to conclusions, but it did feel as if some forwards were spending a little too much time on the wing.

The highlights probably don't do justice to quite how bad we were at the breakdown; it's never been a strength but seems to have regressed even further.

Ford hit one bad goal kick in the two games he had the responsibility (conversion following Lozowski's try). Not seen the second miss from the last try of the game. His two misses against Argentina both hit woodwork, one from distance the other from the touchline. Overall his kicking percentage was higher than Farrell's (note not saying he is better than the Saracen).

He was also 12/14 on the tour of Argentina, seems that TightHead is stuck in last year.

It's not great reading tbh. Neither of the halfback are doing it really, can't remember the last time Ford did.
I'm a big fan of Ford, his kicking from hand is sublime and passing excellent. He has gas, he just doesn't seem to back himself these days.
Has Ford made many breaks for Tigers?

Some, but not run much - usually looking to put May, Toomua, Veainu in holes.
Youngs has run a lot more for Leicester than he has for England this season.

Re: England vs Samoa - 25th November
Much as I like skillful players, I think were missing ball carriers in the back-row and in mid-field. Nice to have pace, etc. but I think overall England lacked a little balance in both areas.
B Vunipola and Teo would have made life interesting and maybe created more space for the speedsters and passers.

Re: England vs Samoa - 25th November
EJ's will have some interesting choices for the 6Ns if some players return from injuries. The balance in the backs is not right especially when our forwards are under the cosh. T'eo or Manu (only once he has played about 8 matches and proven fitness and form) are required to give us some physicality. I did agree with Simon Jones that Daly may well be our best 13 and I would like to see Farrell, T'eo and Daly as the midfield. May, Watson and Brown in the back three. I was all for dropping Brown but his form seems to have picked up.
Cole is the other area of main concern. His scrummaging remains suspect and Williams certainly provided an impact when he came on.

Re: England vs Samoa - 25th November
I am struggling to see EJ playing Daly at 13. Since making his first start at 13 against SA last year, he has been used exclusively on the wing.
I suspect we will see Te'o at 13 come 6Ns rater than Daly, with the Wasp joining Brown and Watson in the back 3.

Re: England vs Samoa - 25th November
Was at the game, which was a pretty stagnant affair bar the first and last 10. For me, Simmonds shone the most - bloke was all over the park, looks really dynamic and powerful.
May looked good again but I do feel sorry for the guy as the ball went down the left side 90% of the time. He had to pass to himself at one point just to have a run out. Solid defence too.
Brown - really good tbf. I was all for him being dropped but the bloke is just imperious at the back and took some big hits with no dramas.
Also confirmed to me (for the billionth time) that Care isn't a starter - bring him on when the game has opened up and let him work his magic! Other special mentions to Loz, Ford and Daly for good performances.

Re: England vs Samoa - 25th November
6 things learned from woodward via he daily mail. Not my fault the in laws buy it.
England are moving in the right direction.
Robshaw will be hard to shift from 6.
Hartley will be hard to shift from 2.
Lions have been a blessing for both.
Farrell is a nailed on starter due to his organisation skills and kicking.
Launchbury can't be discounted.
Underhill must now prove he's not just about tackling.

Re: England vs Samoa - 25th November
A decent enough performance from a fairly green side. But I hope I never see the lack of protection of our own ball in the tackle again. Too much hanging out looking for the champagne moments by our pack – even Brown was getting turned over. You can’t do the sexy stuff if you don’t do the gritty stuff first. Still, even the beeb must be happy enough with 48 points.

Jones probably needs another 360 staff under him and maybe 50 more assistant coaches to put himself in with a real chance of that WC.

I really hope there's a monster young centre coming through someone's academy who can make a late claim.
It's one area that's glaringly missing...some beef to go direct when required.
