There's that, but also who's our back up 8 and when's the last time he actually played there?
vs All Blacks was it?
That's why Wilson should be starting at 8.
As long as Wilson is getting game time I'm not going to be too concerned. Ideally I'd like to see him get more time at 8 for England but he's a decent enough player to move there at short notice, and specific 8 skills he already has. Hopefully he can get the last 20 at 8, but we're not going to be putting a player like Singleton at 8 (I hope) who has no game experience there at all
On a side note, I've been watching the 'Rising Sons' series on You Tube and Wilson comes across as a real leader, and a hard trainer even though he's been injured the last few weeks....
