[QUOTE="Don't Skip Leg Day, post: 1006136, member: 35381"] I mean Marler is an easy one really, if you asked any rugby forum poster who they’d want in a scrum vs SA, Marler or Mako, we would all of said Marler. This is my opinion and not fact, but I look at how England through EJ time has played well in patches and then bottled It in key matches. It tells me that the players were mentally the wrong ones. Key decision makers like Young’s, ford, farell etc have fallen apart quite a few times when it mattered. Would we have won with Ciprinai in the team, or with a better SH or some of the other discussion points, I don’t know and I’m not saying we’d be better but it does seem like Jones sticks to what doesn’t work for way too long. Maybe it’s because of spent all day drinking cider by the beach (in the rain lol) but I think Jones refuses to select players who get media traction. [/QUOTE]
