[QUOTE="yaboyjj, post: 726837, member: 71795"] Absolutely the right call by Lancaster- now just hope the rest of training camp and last games of the season go without incident.... It's a huge opportunity now for one of the young'uns to have a stormer and book a world cup spot (possibly even start)- we know that one of George or LCD will make it into the final 31 now, it's set up for one of them to make a name for themselves. Having said that, I must be one of the only ones who really rates Tom Youngs- imo you only have to look at how the Leicester front row gobbled everyone before them (they gave the Leicester backs all the ball and possesion they needed to win the Bath game). A 5% drop in lineout is worth it for what he does around the field- his non-hooking ability is hardly a big deal in this day and age and for what its worth, with the form of Cole (and possibly a Corbs resurgance, Marler+Mako if not) I would expect England to have scrum dominance against pretty much any team (the scrum has often improved when Youngs has come on actually, IIRC).
