[QUOTE="Vieux Talonneur, post: 790993, member: 73144"] This is just bloody madness. Agree with Tigs Man. The squad left for Colorado on 14th July last year and the last test of this series is on 25th June. Has nobody noticed that rugby's quite physical these days and that these players might just, possibly, need a rest? Not to mention the mental impact of the RWC disaster. If people have been moaning about the 6N suffering a RWC hangover, what state do they think Eng will be in in 3 months time?? If Jones has any sense, he should treat this as more of a development tour and send some of the star names to the beach with a few beers. Use players who have missed chunks of the season through injury or have sat on the bench through the 6N. The likes of Brookes, Slade and Manu will have miles in their legs and be up for the fight. Billy, Fazlet and Brown won't. [/QUOTE]
