How England are building the foundations for World Cup success in 2027

I agree . . . It would make sense to test the 3x7 strategy as is with a 6|2 bench first to see how they get on BUT if SA do overpower them up front (it will be harder), then I think not only Borthers but everyone else should roll the dice 7|1 to see if you can live with SA.

Their 2019 scrum forced the SH to change the shape of their pack, supersizing the props and adding the bigger guy at 6 to shore up the pack. Sadly it has then made Razzie add even more power but if you don’t do something, I am not too sure how teams will compete against that pack, it’s just so good.

I think he’s very happy to let 2 (or 3) novices compete for the same job when they are the best players available.

Who is to say they are better than Lawrence or Dingwall as Test 12’s??

Same mould as CCS and Chessum from what I’ve seen Tom.

But to geo back to the original start point, I doubt they will go 7/1 just to introduce a third 7 on the bench!

I doubt it, especially with his brother going the other way.

Someone would need to sign him as the marquee player to make it work financially . . . . which means the team will probably look a little light at 10.

Interesting to see the Sarries line up against Clermont today.

They pretty much played their biggest possible pack - Tizzard, Isiekwe, with McFarland, Willis & Onyaema-Christie.

There’s probably no difference in what the forwards do to control games but the more the SB’s start to trust Tonyball and use that electric backline attack, I think the gulf may increase.

Was Wellington a unique one off, or is that the blueprint for next season?

I thought Borthers looked like “a rabbit in the headlights” during his first few news conferences and it was a bit “politically correct down the line” in his communication strategy, which wasn’t very authentic at the beginning.

I was actually struck by how well he handled the “Tom Curry” incident and how relaxed (and authentic) he came across. There’s definitely a more assured version of Borthers starting to emerge but Woodward trusted Johno to do the talking on the pitch and I think that’s where Steve is starting to evolve towards with Maro. There’s certainly been a step change since he was appointed captain . . . . And we’ve already seen how little Maro values coming 2nd at RWC’s (the medal ceremony).

Dingwall hasn’t played as well at 12 as Atkinson or Ojomoh. Don’t know why you’d drop 2 proven test level players.

In the 2024 six nations Borthwick selected 3 cap Tommy Freeman, 0 cap Feyi-Waboso, and 0 cap Tom Roebuck as the only right wingers in the squad. I think he’s very happy to let 2 (or 3) novices compete for the same job when they are the best players available.

Wales are out of luck and out of ideas, so where do they go from here?

That's the elephant in the room. The problem won't be Wales trying to identify talent at schools level, it will be keeping the talent on their own pathways and developing them.

A young Welsh player might target the fact they could get senior caps at 20 but why bother. They've been driven into the ground like tent pegs in their last run of games against tier 1’s.

The hearing came to the judgement that he did it on purpose. Why are you being so weird about that?
