Brilliant break by Robson in the build up for that try.

Mad 10 minute appearance for Willis....hope he is ok

He isn't, I'd be amazed if that isn't a serious injury, looked a lot like what happened to Wesley.

[Jon Crofts]

Poor old Willis, blimey.

Italy have been magnificent.

I missed it live & turned away from the replay but he didn’t look in a good way on the stretcher...hope for his sake it isn’t a Wesley injury

We'll see but it looked like his knee went sideways by a fair way. As nasty an injury as I've seen for a while.

[PaulWinch again]

Meh performance really.

Think Jack Willis has already had 2 ACL injuries and fear for him and his likely recovery. I'll also say that Robson's introduction led to faster ball and wonder if Jones would even consider dropping Youngs, given that he's one of Jones's favourites and almost undroppable.

Dan Robson might have just ended Youngs England career there.

What cup do Wales and Scotland play for? Is it the ‘If it weren’t for Italy we’d be winning the wooden spoon cup’?

As with all the nations except Italy and England, it's the "We hate England more than you" trophy.

Fingers crossed, that's the sort of performance I've been waiting for from Robson for England, that's the player he's been at wasps for the last few years.

[paul_e]

I expected a decent performance from Wales today but they've been awful in the backfield defence, 2 tries that were far too easy for Scotland, Pivac might might not last the year.

[paul_e]

Red card for the scots was harsh but he was very silly to put himself in that position.


It's a very good game though, not much between these 2.

We can but hope - Youngs like Care always did ok as a replacement but as a starter? 100+ caps seems mad

Do we have other young English scrum halves who could back up Robson??

Randall and Mitchell are the 2 for me. Randall is sharp around the fringes and will makes breaks (but i have a few concerns about his passing), Mitchell is a great passer and has an extra yard of pace. That would be my 3 in the squad.
