[QUOTE="Peat, post: 477098, member: 42330"] In fairness to Cockerill - Twelvetrees is not a better 12 than Allen. He's also not a better 13 than Tuilagi. And he has consistency issues. I can't blame him for going for the stronger pairing. In a lot of his runs of games, Twelvetrees hasn't looked like he's overtaken them. However, he clearly had talent and needed backing. Cockerill chose not to do so, and he can't be surprised when Twelvetrees goes to find someone who will. Also, yeah, Matt Smith as first reserve is not encouraging. [/QUOTE]
