[QUOTE="Vieux Talonneur, post: 1127343, member: 73144"] His injury record probably also means he values security highly too. I would expect him to have been in a first choice 23 post RWC when Lawes will presumably retire from international duty. But his choice. On a wider perspective, the RFU can’t ignore what is going on under their noses though. You can’t just stand there screaming blind that you’re right when the evidence is saying otherwise. Footballers have long prioritised the cash of the club game over the national shirt and we’re now starting to see that in rugby. The difference being that a strong national team is much more fundamental to rugby’s overall well-being. [/QUOTE]
