The loan was documented. Farr-Jones's guarantee wasn't.

How would you rate him against Nadolo on his best day?

Fair enough. It does seem to be only his running that is missed.

Speight needs to increase his workload. DHP seemed to be everywhere on Saturday, and Speight invisible. That may have just been the run of the play but DHP's involvements were on both sides of the field and up the middle.

Alan Jones surely, who was arrested in a public toilet in Soho for soliciting?

Purely workload management. It's either going to have to be against Scotland or France, unless we plan to run a very tired team against England, having played four tests in four weeks at the end of a long season, including fronting up from a resurgent Ireland the week before, who will throw...

The decimal point?

I think fatprop's objection to him was that he was seriously flaky, but now he isn't.

Do you seriously believe the idea of Holloway at 6 originated with you, on here?

Nah, the Saffer commentators are actually good.

Don't worry Bairdy, you're not being a pedant. A pedant would try to pronounce it correctly, rather than phonetically in English. Internal vowel sounds in Samoan are prolonged, so latoa = la-ah-ah-to-ah. Much the same as Samoa is Sa-ah-mo-ah. Any Samoans care to weigh in on the full...

I suspect it's because they'll start against Scotland. Frisby, Cooper and Simmons to start and possibly both bench props as well.

I think you're spot on there. Locks 1-2.

Also good to see Hodge in space, with that rangy stride. Oodles of potential there.

That was good for the soul, not so much the win but the nature of the first-half dominance, with big men hitting the ball at speed with excellent timing, opening up opportunities. It's (almost) irrelevant that several of those opportunities were fluffed by bad handling. The big men hitting the...
