Henry Pollock and Marcus Smith among 5 England stars targeted for Olympics

No he really isn’t. He’s quick from start to 10 metres and then looks like he treading water - remember how he got owned during a break against Ireland? Closed down. And that’s in 15s, he’s get exposed badly in 7s.

Have you seen that scrum? Genge's knee goes down which causes both props go in. It really isn't controversial.

I’m not sure I even understand your point here. If the ref can't tell who is at fault, that is an officiating issue, yet you describe the refs actions as “rightly” and somehow blame the scrum?

Will Muir did play 7s for England. He was full time on the 7s circuit and didn’t make his professional debut in 15s until he was 24.

He’s pretty quick. I’d imagine he’d be primarily looked at as a 9.

There is a contest, it is just not an even one. And that is completely fine. The feeding team should be at an advantage.

I'm really not sure why people believe the word contest implies it has to be even.

Not sure how you got to me saying earlier scrums weren't proper from what I said. In the 50s, 60s and 70s pushover tries were more common and a form of using the scrum for attack. Back then scrums were also quite effective at making meters. Weaker scrums didn't collapse as readily so strong teams just scrummed them back 20 metres. The scrum itself was always an option to use as a form of attack.

Not all, but I certainly don't mind if teams that infringe at the scrum get penalised.

Deep parallels to 2010 for the All Blacks ahead of South Africa

I think the law of increasing and diminishing returns might be applicable here.

Besides that, the writer seems obsessed with player age - though I’m sure he'd be lyrical if Brodie Retallick would be able to join the ABs - but fails to mention that they have an 80 year old making decisions; he is older than John Williams who coached the Boks in 1992.

It would not surprise me to see Lucu Jalibert Buros against Argentina, while Dupont Ntamack Ramos plays against Fiji and South Africa as well as the last match.

Perhaps not quite but I just feel that Ntamack always holds the edge as the more solid option. Which player gives Galthié more guarantees? I do think it is still the Toulouse man, although Jalibert has been incredible and on form over the last season or two he is better.

The Wallabies attack is about to get a whole lot wider, but not in the way you think

All comes down to the forwards and kicking game. All this attack only works if we can generate go forward ball and play at the right end of the field..the best defensive and attacking system in rugby today is a game manager who keeps you out of your half.

Fabian Holland and Sam Darry are the two tallest and most powerful locks and should start with Vaa’i starting at blindside and covering lock.

This would allow Rennie to go to a 6-2 split and load the bench with loose forwards as England very successfully did last November.

Red Roses confirm which 32 players have received full-time contracts for the 2026/27 season

To me, Sing is in the same mould as traditional English full backs, going back to Don Rutherford and Bob Hiller, safe-ish, reasonably solid, decent boot but not quick and no x-factor. The Red Roses need something more which Ellie Kildunne provides and Nollie Waterman before her provided. I would be tempted in this period 3 years out from the next WC to try and groom one of the abundance of rapid wingers we have to be an x-factor full back. Rowland is the real understudy to Kildunne in big matches at the moment (WC QF v Scotland). Many full backs started out as wingers.

DuPont is probably the only player that made a difference moving back to 7s for Olympics. Every “superstart'“ union player that tired to go back barely made the starting side, they sounds great on paper, it’s just to different a game.

MS is not quick enough for 7s. he has some footwork, but lacks speed & not big enough to be a forward in the 7s arena

I am concerned whether some of them will be able to make the transition but Smith and Pollock in particular would be great to watch in 7s. Glad to see we're finally trying to tap up some of our best talent for these big competitions. Sounds like LBB is going to be involved with the French.

I wonder which other freakish humans may have been in the conversation. Manny FW? Radwan? CCS? Ted Hill? Randall? Will Muir? Earl?
