[QUOTE="Goodey, post: 849148, member: 69270"] I wonder if the bad leaks were done to make us think on any sensible squad favouringly. I'm mostly feeling relief. The two calls I really disagree on are Biggar over Ford/Russell (shouldn't even be playing for Wales) and Lawes over Launchbury (Lawes looked good during the 6N but only because his 2nd row/back row switching put Itoje through the ringer. Lawes asks too much of his team mates, and for a lineout operator we have Kruis.) I'd also have found room for Robshaw though I get I'm in the minority on that one. Counting the nations is missing the point imo, yes there are Welsh players living somewhat on incumbency but so are a few others like SOB. If you want to talk about there being more Scots you need to say which ones. I think J Gray and Russell could have gone but both would be very debatable. I'm not keen on Hamish Watson. [/QUOTE]
