[QUOTE="TRF_Olyy, post: 1003692, member: 34990"] I think Ben Curry is out of the equation - 3 to 4 weeks out with his ankle, and with the quality his competition there's no need to take a risk on someone who might not be 100% Completely forgot Moon was in the squad, It's going to be an interesting squad - who knows whether EJ will stick to his guns and rest the RWC players. I think he won't seeing as it's an actual cup comp, and also they've had the three month break. Also are there still rules on how many changes you can make per EPS announcement? If we're ignoring rest periods, then my squad (compared to current EPS) would be something like Luke Cowan-Dickie Tom Dunn Jamie George Beno Obano Ellis Genge Joe Marler Kyle Sinckler Will Stuart Mako Vunipola Harry Williams Charlie Ewels George Kruis --> Johnny Hill Joe Launchbury Courtney Lawes --> Nick Isiekwe Maro Itoje Alexander Moon --> Alex Dombrandt Ted Hill Tom Curry Ben Earl Lewis Ludlam --> Jack Willis Sam Underhill Willi Heinz --> Ben Spencer Ben Youngs Owen Farrell George Ford Jacob Umaga --> Joe Simmonds Ollie Devoto Fraser Dingwall --> Henry Slade Jonathan Joseph Manu Tuilagi --> Ollie Lawrence Ollie Thorley --> Jack Nowell Jonny May Anthony Watson Elliot Daly George Furbank --> Max Malins I've tried to keep it in the realm of possibility (i.e. Ben Youngs is an inevitability) - however I'd rather we had three scrumhalves (the third being Dan Robson) with Youngs phased out over this international period. Maybe drop a loosehead? Four seems a bit excessive [/QUOTE]
