The lack of Eddie is evident in the non selection of a fit Tuilagi.

Eddie, Lancaster, Jonno.

The back row is an area of strength for the Sweaties, which I think is part of it. Also Toonie send obsessed with shoehorning Watson AND Ritchie on whenever possible, which to me fucks with the balance.

Always has been traditionally, it’s a shame the rest of the positions can’t boast the same.

Curry's 6 nation's debut. That threw me.

[Tim]

I try to be objective about England, but then I hear "swing low ..."

[Bones]

Some shit hot play by Scotland in that build up. Superb.

[Billy Tell]

Lovely from Scotland.

[Tim]

Brilliant from Scotland. Huge gaps in that English defence.

[Bones]

That was ripped by Smith after Tuipulotu was tackled. Well after.

[Bones]

Where the fuck were the whole Scotland team there? Bizarre.

[Bones]

Well worked by England, helluva finish by Malins.

[Tim]

Well taken.

[sparky]

What a try!

[Bones]

England were told to watch Duhan.... and they did.

This is the kind of thing I wish to see from Clarke. Probably would've fallen over after the first step though.

[Victor Meldrew]

England's D looks all over the place.

[Tim]

Come on Scotland!

[Bones]

Smith talking shit when down on the scoreboard, after throwing a shit pass and then getting thrown about like a kid.

He could end up hatier than Sexdoll .

[sparky]

So after all that hype, Kevin Sinfield is not England's defensive Messiah.
