Yeah I ditched vunipola for Ford....but never appointed him kicker......insteaad I've got faletau.

Had brown too and Thomas.
Ruddock's tackle stats consistently too low for me to be taken seriously as a Six Nations blindside..... Ruddock's defensive stats don't stack up. - All Blacks Nil, Jan 15th, 2014

Ruddock(c) 19/2 Tackles

Did anyone anywhere manage to pick Morisi as their token Italian? If so I would say smug doesn't even begin to describe it after those 2 tries.

Capangaro did same thing last year

Not many players doing much, lot of the points scored by kickers and subs so its basically who had Joseph and who didnt

i am always delighted with replacements who score tries because pretty much nobody will be picking up points.

I was toying with the idea of an Italian back because England often get a bit leaky against them once they are ahead and I was fairly certain the Italians would score. It wouldn't have been Morisi if I had though, so I'll settle for Bowe and Zebo going yet another round without doing anything for me. And I just know the second I drop either it will be hat trick and man of the match time.

Couldn't make enough changes to get Joseph onto my team, wanted sexton in there- so between the dropping of biggar and others who were not going to play.... no English backs!!
Poxy TMO denied me a Wanky Williams try though....

Anyone else just lost nearly half their team thanks to the France and Scotland changes?

I'm in danger of having a lot of players on benches rather than on the pitch.

time for an overseas coach, step forward Jake White. He'd sort them out in no time, gone for a English.french and irish dominated side this week.

Very tempted to put webb in though, even when he plays poorly he seems to score /sets up a try

Anyone know who got MOTM in the Italy/France game? (I know, the idea that someone would get an award in that game is crazy)
