[QUOTE="psychic duck, post: 545542, member: 48703"] So now Vunipola will be at Saracens I expect he will be fast tracked into the England 23 man squad by the end of the year. Ever since Farrell became backs coach, Saracens players seem to have got a bit of an edge on England selection. Strettle and Mouritz Botha are two that spring to mind who've got more internationals with England than they would have had with other clubs. Saracens seem to becoming like Leicester and England call ups, where players like Deacon would get 30 odd caps despite being just a good club player and nobody noticed Parling until he moved to Leicester. Same thing happening with Saracens. I'm surprised James Johnston has moved to Saracens though, I would have thought he would have wanted to stay at the Premiership champions. Big loss for Harlequins, he's been a very important player for them this past 18 months. Also Wasps will be annoyed to lose a player only aged 20 who was just beginning to establish himself in their side from their academy. [/QUOTE]
