[QUOTE="Saintjay, post: 1151085, member: 55969"] Yet Smith is still no more a FB than Farrell is in all reality. If you look at the kick chase Wales put in against Australia or how SA play. Smith would get absolutely murdered. It also sends out the wrong message to Freddie Steward and any aspiring England fullback. He might be worth a roll of the dice in the last 20. But in my view you select the best full back in the squad and that's FS. Imagine being viewed as the best current english qualified player in your position and you are dropped for a bloke who's never really played union in that position. Who's arguably not even the best English player in there own position as it is. Here's looking at you Sam Burgess. [/QUOTE]
