[QUOTE="MarkyH, post: 881090, member: 73780"] Good stats but stats only tell a small part. I think Samoa was Robshaws worst game of the 3. He wasn't quick enough to the breakdown, he left the door open for Samoas first try and just looked a little laboured round the park. I'm in no rush to drop him but I'm hoping EJs told him his place isn't guaranteed... Simmonds played well, Lawes was good too. I thought Slade was very good at 13 and Daly finished fantastically and is so good offloading the that 5 metre channel. Loz was pretty decent too. Same as usual from Ford. I don't think anyone played bad, we just weren't decisive enough at the breakdown today. Special mention, and my man of the match was May, just because he's so much fun to watch, popped up at 9 more than once and that quick line-out was great. Going forward, well, I will discuss that in the EPS thread later :) [/QUOTE]
