[QUOTE="Not Eddie Jones, post: 984475, member: 81025"] Malins has a broken foot, but he has definitely looked good at FB this season when given the opportunities. One for the summer tour hopefully. Given that we open in Paris, I don't imagine we'll see a huge amount of change to the starting lineup from the WC Final, save for the injury-enforced change in the back row and the usual 10-12-13 combo shifts. With Slade injured, does Eddie push Devoto to 13 as a like-for-like swap (with Faz-Manu at 10-12), or does he stick with Ford-Faz-Tuilagi, or does he go hammer and rapier style in the midfield and put Manu and JJ next to Faz? If he wants to play a more defensive game against France, the latter would probably be the strongest combo, but there would be less playmakers than usual in the backs. Or does he pull a big surprise and go for Devoto at 12 between Faz and one of Manu or JJ. Or floor everybody and put Dingwall in there? :eek: [/QUOTE]
