[QUOTE="Reiser99, post: 1059352, member: 72977"] At 33 and having had some injuries recently I can't see JD2 at the world cup either. You really need to be an outstanding player at 35 to still be competing at international level and if you have had some injury injuries in the past it's even more unlikely. AWJ is an example that his fitness and injury record is excellent. While people may disagree about how good he is, you know he's generally fit and competing at a high level. I don't see this with JD2 tbh. On top with only 2 years until the world cup, you don't want to build a game plan that relies in part on a player who might not be there. It's why I don't Tuilagi in the England setup until he's shown he can stay fit for an extended period of time. [/QUOTE]
