[QUOTE="Not Eddie Jones, post: 990884, member: 81025"] Thinking about that for a moment, and Eddie's obsession with positional flexibility, looking at this team and where the players have actually played for England, we have: Marler - can play loosehead or tighthead Itoje - lock or blindside Lawes - lock or blindside Wilson - blindside, openside or 8 Curry - blindside, openside or 8 Ford - scrum-half (according to Eddie he's emergency cover) or fly-half Farrell - fly-half, inside centre or outside centre Tuilagi - inside centre or outside centre Watson - wing or fullback May - wing or fullback Daly - inside centre, outside centre, wing or fullback Ewels - lock or 8 Earl - blindside flanker, openside flanker, 8 or wing (okay, this is mainly theoretical at this point!) Slade - inside centre, outside centre or fullback That's some really nice in-game flexibility to have for any situation that arises. [/QUOTE]
