    The MailOnline are reporting the below starting XV for tomorrow.. Daly, Nowell, Slade, Tuilagi, May, Farrell, Youngs; M Vunipola, George, Sinckler, Itoje, Lawes, Wilson, B Vunipola, Curry. If that’s the case, I can’t see us re-writing history in Dublin...

    Premiership Rugby 2018/19 Round 12

    Just caught up with the highlights from the weekend, a few things - Please, can we get Dombrandt in an England shirt?! As Gustard says, still has the body of a uni player but get him into a training camp early and let him compete and show his worth. Tuilagi's consistent playing time coinciding...

    England Rugby 2018/19 Thread

    I took the co-captain thing as, Farrell is nailed on, but I don't want to drop my captain a year from a WC. So if I make him co-captain and he's not starting maybe people won't notice...

    Exeter Chiefs 2018/19

    Difficult, I'd go with 11 - Cordero, 14- Cuthbert, 15- Nowell with Woodburn to cover. Harsh on Dollman though, he's been a good servant to Chiefs.

    Ben Youngs essentially admitting that having two jackals allowed them to defend and organise better, wonder if Eddie is listening...

    Get Spencer on. Asking a Leicester scrum-half to up the tempo is against his nature

    [June Tests 2018: 3rd Test] South Africa vs. England (23/06/2018)

    Credit to Robshaw, back to his usual levels today. We need to score next and it needs to be a try, otherwise I can see this slipping away from us.

    [June Tests 2018: 3rd Test] South Africa vs. England (23/06/2018)

    Slade has been constantly rinsed on the outside this tour. Was genuinely hoping that he'd shine in SA.

    [June Tests 2018: 3rd Test] South Africa vs. England (23/06/2018)

    Tom Curry's worth has skyrocketed from this tour, the kids played unbelievably.

    [June Tests 2018: 3rd Test] South Africa vs. England (23/06/2018)

    Jonny Hill, lineout specialist or will he add something when coming on? Not seen much of him. Excited for such a strong Exeter contingent to come on, hoping all that time playing together helps later in the game where we’ve been falling off.

    England EPS 2017/18 edition.

    This is the crazy/wishful thinking that I need right now, because I'm all out of ideas. Next week for me, we're going to have to hugely change the game plan with the loss of Mako/Billy. But, here's me now remembering that we have EJ and he'll shoe horn somebody else into their roles...

    [June Tests 2018: 2nd Test] South Africa vs. England (16/06/2018)

    Let hope Itoje and Mako keep a level head this week, then I'm pretty confident. If Cipriani comes on, probably means Farrell will stay at 12? Denny could replace Brown later in the game if Daly goes well. *Wait... Still no 2nd row cover? Wow.

    Versatile player wanting to cement a position

    Agree with everyone saying playmaking 12 - Although at 177cm and 200lbs, I'd suggest losing a few lbs too. I'm 178cm and currently around 175lbs, normally a 10 but after losing the weight (I was just over 200lbs) I feel like I've now got the gas to maybe even make a home at 13. As you can see...

    England EPS 2017/18 edition.

    "Eddie Jones has sought help from an expert in brain research, to try and work out why his England players are slow to adapt to problems on the pitch" - Just seen on RugbyPass. Eddie, it's called fatigue. You really have to wonder don't you.

    Aviva Premiership 2017/18 Grand Final

    Saracens had Exeter worked out from the 1st minute, I even fancied having a bet on Exeter pre-game :D S Simmonds at 7 and Billy at 8 with an Underhill or Shields at 6 is really getting me excited for the WC. If only we could have a Farrell/Loz/Slade partnership with it!
