Selecting Farrell as captain is a mistake from Borthwick. You can argue the merits of selecting him, but picking him as captain means he has to play. So you’re either saying Smith won’t play or Farrell plays in the centres, which just doesn’t feel right now.

Ireland on the other hand should be one of the 4-5 in the mix to win the world cup.

Very happy with a BP win in Cardiff no matter how poor they are given our recent record there.Enjoying the Scotland-England game so far.
Oh dear.
