My guess is they will be delighted to know they are EJ thoughts and have the potential opportunity to show what they can do.
I'm sure they don't. A few injuries away from a big payday.
But when these names are above Spencer, Simmonds S, Simmonds J, Sinckler, T Hill, etc. etc. you've got to wonder what selection is based on.
Sinckler is banned. Find it strange Spencer doesn’t make it but not really the others.
Vunipola does a lot more than run in try’s, Ford and Farrell work well together, Hill is very good but we have so much strength in the 2nd row.

I hope not, he’ll be off to Leicester soon.
Just hope he gets back to form and starts playing to his strengths again.

Capped by Wales before England at u16s, lived in Wales for 10 years I believe. Pretty much his choice. He's been fantastic this season, well deserved.
Overall, thats a very strong squad , particularly when you look at the calibre of the players that didn't make it.

Yes just to stop him playing for wales.

I think Thorley starts as long as he's fit. Best thing he can do is get his head down with us and find some form, without making excuses for him he's been training with England then back to Gloucester, it can't be easy for continuity.
