[QUOTE="yaboyjj, post: 720769, member: 71795"] I hardly think we can attribute the 'great attacking performance' against NZ, to Farrell and Barritt- England had front foot ball all match and Tuilagi was a man possessed, Barritt only had to run through a hole 10m wide, draw and pass for that second try- he almost managed to fudge that, it was only a miracle (lucky) offload from Tuilagi that made the try. Italy on the last day of the 6 nations tend not to be great indicators of form either. I'm sure I posted a highlight reel of a match a couple of years ago (England v France maybe?) where Barritt blew several opportunities because he took the ball into contact rather than pass- fact is, his vision, passing game and running threat are minimal- lets just take him at face value, which is that he will shore up the defence- but will likely stifle up a few attacking moves in the process.
