Fair point, 4 flyhalves in a 23 is a bit muchWhen you've got Ford, Lozowski and Slade all starting do you really need Francis on the bench?
Tbh for me it's only the back row, 9 and 15 that are of concern in the main squad, so those are the positions I'm interested in. With Wilson, Curry and Armand, at least they are being tested. Maunder could make an impact off the bench, but not too daring. As for Brown...why is he undroppable?
Overall it feels like Jones has tried to be adventurous and then backed down slightly and not quite committed to it.
Jones has said he's touring as a 10.Me when I see Care, Ford, May, Lozowski, Slade and then see Yarde and Brown.
Also Francis is just as much of a 12 as Mallinder and Devoto TBF.

Jonny and Joe outside the Hotel, very nice guys.

Well my point was that a 10 wasn't needed on the bench. You said Francis can play 12, which is true, but Eddie's said he's touring as a 10 so will likely come on at 10. And if not, he's unable to cover 13 which Devoto and Mallinder both can which is why I'd prefer them on the bench over Francis.And?
He can still play 12. Lozowski will be our 15 cover.
How many Argentinians are not getting picked solely due to playing in Europe?
Imhoff, Isa... anyone else?
