Sutherland, Cherry, Z Fagerson; Skinner, Gilchrist, Ritchie, Watson, M FagersonReplacements:
Turner, Bhatti, Berghan, Craig, Haining, Price, Van der Walt, Harris.Could go horribly wrong

@mikethesnow That's going to be some battle of the back rows. Pretty evenly matched. I think the key will be how the French half-backs go, it's the only area where I feel they have a distinct edge over your boys, though Jallibert in particular can be a bit hot and cold.
Should be a good match.

England team to face Ireland in Dublin.
England: Malins; Watson, Daly, Farrell (capt), May; Ford, Youngs; M Vunipola, Cowan-Dickie, Sinckler, Itoje, Ewels, Wilson, Curry, B Vunipola.
Replacements: George, Genge, Stuart, Hill, Earl, Robson, Lawrence, Marchant.
I am more and more convinced that Eddie was touring over here back in early 1992 and fathered an out of wedlock son. His mother decided to call him Elliot and told him tales of his rugby playing father which made him determined to become a rugby player himself.
Poor young Odogwu, brought into the squad on the back of some outsanding performances in the Premiership. Slade gets injured so Odogwu gets his chance. No wait, we'll slot an out of form full back in there instead. Well at least he'll be on the bench and get his chance I hear you say. But no, we will bring in someone from outside the squad to fill that position. Watch Odogwu declare for Italy and carve up against us in the years to come.
Other than that, not much to complain about, though I might have had Earl starting in the place of Wilson who seems short of a gallop.

It’s only Italy. Scotland could spend all night on the Famous Grouse and still hammer them by 20 the next day.

@machpants it's about time to pull out a win to save their pancetta for another few years.
They're fine whatever, everyone's happier about a biennial trip to Rome rather than Bucharest or Tbilisi

No, but the Georgian food is excellent
