Can see why Yarde is in for Nowell. Stronger in defence against some big Australian backs! Big head scratcher for me is why Goode isn't starting, not even on the bench?! Only logic I can see for not including him is that he's picked up a knock on training. But the premiership player of the year and a man who helped Saracens to win the double? Surely he should walk in to any team! Clifford unfortunate to miss out as well, could've done with his skill at the breakdown. Especially when Pocock and Hooper are going to be all over us like a rash again!
But a strong team nonetheless. Bring on tomorrow.
If we're going on who finished higher in the league the Ashton should have been included LOL.
I can't wait for Aus to win this Sat
It's gonna be a battle of the back rows I reckon
Realised that after u sent it, my bad... Just frustrating from a chiefs fan 👍🏼
Hard to see why nowell isn't starting , slade unfortunate as well
Where the **** is Naiyavaro?! Drop Horwill, have Naiyavaro start & Haylett-Petty on the bench.
Really can't call this one
Jones is a highly experienced coach, but surely he's seen the Australia back row and must know that we need some speed in it to match and better Fardy, Hooper and Pocock?
Think all england can do is pray australia dont bring their A game or they'll cause havock, England should take advantage of the new backline of australia
Australia
England
