[QUOTE="Zed, post: 1109301, member: 38503"] I haven't watched enough UK rugby to know what other options are out there for centre, but from what I've seen of Tuilagi, when fit, he's pretty impressive. Do you think he would go better with a different centre? I've never seen Farrell as a centre. His passing is sublime, but he's really lacking in pace, has no real sidestep and just offers little in attack. He's very predictable and easy to defend against which makes it all the harder for Tuilagi. Players know what Farrell is going to do and so they can hang off him and drift on to Tuilagi, doubling up on him. I agree re Nowell. He needs to go. Pace isn't everything when it comes to wing, but you look at Ioane's try, there's no way Nowell would have score that. [/QUOTE]
