@Chris That's a really good team.
forward pack is strong, the backline is really average.

Pretty sure South Africa started naming a lot earlier.
Maybe wrong, but so do some of the 6N teams.

@Chris i understand in house things will be named....this just seems early to offically name it
Yeah I am not sure why England released it early it does seem a bit early to put it out there.
It's become something of a thing in NH. Gatland seemed to start it. Boks sometimes do. England jumped on bandwagon this year.

@antipodean Fin Baxter is a very handy LH. Coles has often struggled with short and capable LHs.

Wingers don’t have to defend much so maybe they’ll call up Sotutu
but does his hairstyle look good on both sides of the ball?
