I think the choice of Farrell over Ford is about proven mental toughness and who plays better when they don't have dominance up front... that said, Ford played great all season behind a Leicester pack that rarely achieved parity so I'm not so sure about that, but at international level he has rarely had a great game against a top team...
Oh, I agree. It may well be a matter of perception of size. More fool Eddie then, as for me, Farrell is the worse defender of the two. He will miss tackles on Saturday and I hope they don't cost points.
I wasn't questioning you questioning either (of that makes sense).
