I'd heard Marler would start with Corbs on the bench

Daily Mail has Corbs starting, and say it's a tossup as to whether it's Yarde or Ashton that misses out depending on Yardes injury.Tangy wrote:I'd heard Marler would start with Corbs on the bench
Re: England Vs Argentina
I know the Mail has Corbs starting. Just saying there's been some chat Marler could start with Corbs coming off the bench.
If Yarde is injured I wonder who will be sent to the left wing. And also nice to see we're back to no left winger

Re: England Vs Argentina
England will need to offer alot more in general against Argentina today, than they did against Australia. Not saying they need to, to win, but for their own performance and continuity they need to start tinkering that backline and depth of attack now really.
That said, we're getting very gnarly in the pack. The pack's coming together well, and while the lineout is a work in progress, our scrum, breakdown and squad depth looks pretty good in the forwards..
Cue Roob to have a go at me about Robshaw .....

Re: England Vs Argentina
Robshaw has many fine qualities, just none of that x factor Lanny is so happy to talk about. That's sort of fine of he's the one doing all the hard work to make a team work, but two things for me on that, Wood is also doing that and imo is better at it, and Robshaw is taking a slot that could go to a more talented option now with better potential too.
Robshaw may help the team develop for now. But I see nothing at test level to suggest he's ever going to be more than a 7/10 player. So if he takes caps now that don't go to Armitage (my preference), Kvesic or Fraser we'll arrive at the 2015 RWC not as good as we could be.
Robshaw does set a very impressive work rate, but if another team lives with that, and they will not all have the discipline to do so, there's nothing else I see him adding.

Re: England Vs Argentina
Happy Cole was dropped. Form loss, too many games, potentially burnt a bit, and Wilson has been excellent. Good pick by Lancaster actually.

I'm pleased Wilson is in too. Not sure why he wasn't in last week.

Re: England Vs Argentina
I also think Armitage is the best option at the moment for 7, but isnt he falling foul of the anti France selection policy?

Re: England Vs Argentina
Didn't think it was actually anti-france, just thought the RFU didn't have a release agreement with the French Top 14, as this is money out of the English game.
