AWJ will be in the ref's ear, it's  in his DNA and this won't  help Tipuric as a captain.
Keep the faith

I totally  agree with that GPR. Strange selections...Lewis /Francis, & Cuthbert/Adams.
Also not completely  happy with make up of back row. Morgan deserves  the 7 jersey,is playing well.Tipuric at 6 however? 
He has been a wonderful  player and a joy to watch, but reckon still far from his best, and injury and recovery from that could be the reason. Also as a capt, he needs to be more assertive, and needs to be in the ref's ear more regularly. 

Overall,  the team has a better look though  with AwJ, Falateau & Anscombe returning.
Aussies like us not in a good place, so game could  go either way.

Yes I’m wrong, he’s injured.

Ahhh great dropped our only world class player josh adams after months of messing him around in the wrong positions. With him out and LRZ back in Gloucester weve lost our firepower. At least hes developing AWJ for the next world cup maybe 2027 too

I feel for Watkin. No one picks him at 12, he’s not a play maker. Pivac does, then stops him from the 23.
Hawkins the right call, as it would have been last week.

The fact that he’s persisted with Cuthbert says it all, Priestland should be nowhere near the squad and Smith over Jones on the bench for me.
