[QUOTE="msf, post: 717168, member: 72153"] Yeah, Brian Ashton twice actually, since if he had been left in charge after the 2007 world cup we might have seen an English backline move before 2010. I don't think we had the players to win the 2011 world cup, but we didn't have to be such a boring team for most of those 4 years. Players that Johnson ignored: Cipriani, Simpson-Daniel. Players he favoured: Hape, Banahan. The first two were flaky but brilliant, the second two were predictable but mediocre. I think the only excuse for boring rugby is winning, but we all we won was a 6 nations ***le after being thrashed by Ireland. The centres that day? Hape and Banahan. [/QUOTE]
