i agree hartley is number 1 what i dont agree with is people slating him on here!! he has been superb in the premiership and last year in all forms his play in the loose and scrum is better than hartleys. he is 100% in the top 2 hookers in england
i know a lot dont like tom youngs atm but if he sorted his lineout problems out he would be class his play in the loose and scrum are really good and his defendinh really impresses me.
some of you will no when you hook and your scrum is under pressure it is so hard to hook as soon as that foot lifts you give them the upper hand. in my opinon hartley is up there with the best
whats your thoughts guys he has been getting some stick on twitter and of brian moore about his hooking ?? his lineout is world class and decent in the loose. the hooking part is hard having hooked a few times its more tricky than it looks and can depend on a decent feed from the 9.
i thought Henry Thomas looked quite solid in the couple of scrums he had ! would like to see watson come in for nowell and eastmond on the bench next game.
i think something needs to be done other wise cole is going to end up with some serious injurys which will effect his life in all sorts of ways. in the modern game there is no need for a prop to be playing 80 mins week in week out
it was spoke about from brian moore during the scotland game and also a few bits on twitter about. surely the Leicester can add some more about tom youngs ? yep hartley has been superb but i dont think webber or george would do a better job than youngs.
how is tom youngs poor ??? he has a over 90% lineout success rate in the premiership one of highest. he has had a few bad games at the lineout for england and people are asking for a replacement !! youngs and hartley are best england have end off.
as much as i moaned about cole he did make it to a lot of breakdowns and was steady in the loose. wilson is a better scrummager but what will he add in the lose after being out with an injury and cominh straight back into the england side.
collier didn't play for quins Saturday not sure how far he is off coming back.. cooper -worley looks very good in the scrum. for the 6 nations and maybe the world cup i agree with a few others ask matt stevens back. if not have any off the numerous looseheads we have maybe convert like a lot of...
