    Totally agree... shambolic lucky win would be my description... Mitchell must be one of the poorest scrum halves we've had in years, I was never a great fan of Care but he looks like Gareth Edwards at the side of Mitchell. Tuilagi... hard, tough experienced... runs slower than a prop forward now.

    Maybe it is, and maybe it isn't lol.
    Although the World cup does only happen every 4 years, so its going to get extra interest.

    I also think the time has come for Smith to be in the 15.

    Never happen, these two teams will tear each other apart to win.

    Agreed, in for Tuilagi, leave the rest of the backs the same.

    How many decades is this competition played over? There are great grandchildren of the players who were selected in first round of matches now getting in the team.

    They need more time than footballers to get over the injuries.
