@Daffy-Jaffy Mako not in the squad though...? However you have illustrated my point.

England team to face Italy
England: Daly; Watson, Slade, Farrell (capt), May; Ford, Youngs; M Vunipola, Cowan-Dickie, Sinckler, Itoje, Hill, Lawes, Curry, B Vunipola.
Replacements: George, Genge, Stuart, Ewels, Earl, Willis, Robson, Malins.
Lawrence paying the price for Farrell's poor game. Good to see LCD get a start at hooker following George's invisible display last week.
-
Wales:
Leigh Halfpenny, Louis Rees-Zammit, Owen Watkin, Nick Tompkins, Liam Williams, Dan Biggar, Gareth Davies
Wyn Jones, Ken Owens, Tomas Francis, Adam Beard, Alun Wyn Jones (capt), Aaron Wainwright, Justin Tipuric, Taulupe FaletauReplacements:
Elliot Dee, Rhodri Jones, Leon Brown, Will Rowlands, James Botham
Kieran Hardy, Callum Sheedy, Willis HalaholoLots of injuries, hence the changes
I really don't know what Jarrod Evans has to do to make the 23 -
@MiketheSnow Strong back row. Not so sure about the bench though?
-
@MiketheSnow Watkin a converted 10?

Yeah with the players in the backline and the expected physicality I would have gone with a 6-2 slpit

Not to my knowledge. Big unit. Good player.

Yeah that was probably his only England game. Edited likes to do that, one test then dropped forever!
It's only Italy, and with ford at ten, many cracks will be papered over.

I really don't know what Jarrod Evans has to do to make the 23If both teams play liked last weekend, Scotland by a fair bit. But how often are they consistent? So it should be close
