[QUOTE="BPM, post: 1062177, member: 59968"] From an England POV, there’s a good chance Farrell will miss the game, but that’s not our biggest worry … Marler is not asymptomatic so I can’t see any way that he is involved in the game. He’s our best scrummaging loosehead by a distance so is a massive loss, which is made worse by Genge also being out and Mako, Obano and West being unavailable. Conservatively, Rodd is our 4th choice, but could easily be 6th choice with all of the players above available for selection. He had a good debut against Australia but playing against any of the SA tightheads is a massive step-up from James Slipper playing out of position. I’m really hoping George is fit as a front row of Rodd, Blamire and Sinckler is unfortunately not going to cut it. [/QUOTE]
