[QUOTE="Every Time Ref, post: 799148, member: 71826"] Specifically what areas of his game has he improved? I haven't seen as much club rugby as I'd have liked this year so am going on second hand news a lot, but I just don't see him improving the areas of his game which stopped him stepping up. He's always been good for Sarries, and bad for England. What is different about his form for Sarries this season which makes the step up possible where it wasn't before? His positioning is pretty good, although I take issue that it makes up for his lack of pace at international level, where the game moves faster. More importantly, good positioning doesn't help him beat the first man, and neither does that godawful "sidestep" he has. [/QUOTE]
