So you would have Wellens before Radlinski and Burrow before Edwards?

Edwards was never a scrum half in a month of Sundays not that I'm saying Rob Burrow is either.

Based on actual international success, you would have to say yes.

He was, and I'll always hate him for taking Schoey's captaincy, then disgracing it by trying to remove Bradley Clyde's head at Wembley.

Discuss.

Not sure how the Elite Squad will work. Will clubs have to release players? Something needs to be done, hopefully a national approach to addressing player development will help somewhat.

What a crock of donkey rap, I could have done the review in 10mins, England were pants due to the influx of sub standard overseas has beens and never beens.

Thats coupled with the strangulation of youth development due to clubs going for the quick fix tells you all you need to know.

I wonder how much money they wasted on the review? I would have done it for approx £2.12p.
