I really struggle with Eddie Jones selection at times, I understand that he picks people who have done a job for him in the past, but he seems to completely ignore form.
I mean I might be slightly biased as a chiefs fan, but can anyone say that Vunipola was better than anything Sam Simmonds has done this year??
And where are the wasps players?
I think our 9-10 axis is incredibly predictable and quite frankly boring. I would love to see both Joe Simmonds and Marcus Smith given a go, completely different players, but both of them have a Plan A and B.
And genuinely why do we even bother having centres and wingers when we attack? Their job seems to be just to chase overcooked box kicks.
The thing is there is no way that Jones will change, he is too stubborn for it.

Who in that England team, ignoring yesterday’s performance, is genuinely world class apart from Itoje?
Scotland played well enough, but were against a team with Saracens players who aren’t playing any rugby and a team that couldn’t catch, couldn’t kick, struggled at the set piece and gave away 15 penalties. Much was self-inflicted and Scotland forced a lot of it, but with 70% possession and 68% territory, they scored 11 points and won by a single score...
And players not taking a knee before kick off
