    When you think about amazing modern England performances Manu is usually involved. The England team is a better place with him and I’m very proud he is around. He will go down as a legend of the English game… thank you Manu

    I know the result and team performance wasn't great on the day but, we played two top sides back to back and despite all the noise surrounding how disappointing it's been as a autumn series I hope the RFU keep the faith and back England and Eddie Jones into the six nations and world cup 🏉 I'm sure the lads can turn it around 💪

    Congratulations to the great man, Manu Samoa Tuilagi on your 50th Caps.
    From a South-hemisphere Fan view if England is to win the World Cup in France 2023,you need to sort your 6th,9th,10th and 12th Position out,you simply cant have two fly half's that play 10 and 12 position it doesn't work.
    England need Farrell 10, Manu 12, Slade 13,May 14,why is it so hard for Eddie to play Manu at 12 and get the best wrecking ball out of him with the likes of Ma Nonu, Laumape,Sonny Bill Williams,creating more space around them when they play as opposition is more concern trying to contain these great players.
    We would love to see Manu at 12 during the six nations getting him ready for the World Cup,when Manu will be tearing the opposition apart.

    Get my vote on most selections. Every one of my picks us in your wider squad. Agree with coach selection too. Get theyoungsters in, play 6 Nations to light up the ground and dont worry about the results 'this time'. Whatever happens it will be an improvement. Current squad, mentality, plan is dire.

    Ultimately , on any given day, the top 8 teams can beat each other if the wind blows their way!!!

    Onwards and upwards lads.
    It aint over until the fat lady sings.
    Take the joy of the win, but bank the pain of the loss against the bokkes. Draw from it next year, a World Cup year, in France!
    Good luck to all...

    Tough watch. Particularly the silence in changing room.
    I love this team, and I've backed Eddie for a long time now, but it's time for a change.
    I don't think he's lost the dressing room, but he's certainly lost the fans, and that has to be the priority of any national coach.
    We need someone who can get the most out of this group of players. No point waiting until after the WC, the rebuild can start now.

      Agreed mate. I have been his biggest advocate for years but sadly there's no consistency
      He's sending players out of form the wrong message, that they'll be in camp no matter what and players in form have no hope.

      @@JoseRodriguez-dx7bf I think you have hit nail on the head and this is one of the biggest reasons for underperforming international sides. As soon as players get comfortable and you stop evolving teams can lose their edge. Picking on form drives standards and avoids players second guessing whether they or their team mates are the best for the job. Harsh reality of elite sport sadly. Jones has always preferred experience but obviously not working

      @JoseRodriguez-dx7bf Год назад +1

      @Magpie105 True that
      I understand that perhaps the best players may not make the best team, and group dynamics influence the performance. Saying that, if you let some of the EJ "go to guys" out of the squad, it may send a message, galvanise some players and also get some others into the squad. I'm not for awarding one cup to someone just for the sake of getting "one cup" like he has done. If they're on the team I expect them to be prospect of 50 cups and have future in the squad and not what he did with Mark Atkinson, Tom Dunn and others.
