Kryton57 – Well I’m happy to report that whomever England win or lose too this year, its with the B team, so it doesn’t matter.
Eddie Jones is doing his best to make England look as though they are underdogs isn’t he?
They are missing these players, according to the BBC:

<tbody>
<tr>
<td><b>Forwards: </b>Tom Curry, Charlie Ewels, Ellis Genge, Nathan Hughes, Matt Mullan, Beno Obano, Kyle Sinckler, Will Spencer, Chris Robshaw, Billy Vunipola.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><b>Backs:</b> Mike Brown, Elliot Daly, Piers Francis, Jack Nowell, Semesa Rokoduguni, Henry Slade. (Ben Te’o is returning to fitness with England but has not played since October)</td>

There aren’t so many first choice players in there, other than a missing back-row, that a nation the size of England would struggle..
On The Great Orange One – I reckon that Patchell will get injured early on, Anscombe will look like an amateur and Big Gav will be drafted in at last minute to win the 6N for Wales, having picked Teo up, ripped his arm-guard off with his teeth and carried him 40m down the pitch before scoring… 🙂
