    Borthwick is a good coach, and I think Eng will be a very good side by the time 2027 rolls around

    I wasn’t too happy about Borthwicks appointment, but I said then I would prepared to eat my words. Early doors I’ve been impressed. So keep it going in the right direction Steve and I’ll be happy to eat my words.

    Thought Borthwick did very well with the RWC team last year . Getting to the semifinals and nbeing beaten by 1 point by eventual champions is a result no many saw coming. Looking forward to the English tests against NZ. There wont be mauch between them with 2 good coaches going head to head. Wouldn't be surprised if its a drawn series as many experienced older All Blacks have left to play in Japan .

    Been waiting for Borthwick to put his own stamp on the team. It had to happen after the world cup. Obviously him and his coaching team habe been having an impact with a newer style of rugby (blitz defence, more ball through hand and less kick chase), but it's never going to work for the next world cup if he kept the same old gaurds. Love some of the young guns he's selected.

      Have to agree. Against the Sharks in the final he was manhandled and against Test packs, he will be found out, because he is when coming up against something close at domestic level. Not expecting him to be a Vermeulen, but space is much less at the Test level and he needs to make metres in contact and heavy traffic first and foremost - just like a prop’s first role is set piece. Ben Earl had to go away and work at it, hard, because he’s not the largest either, but he worked on generating immense power in contact - something Mercer hasn’t developed to the level required yet. He steps to the side and skirts around contact.. which just won’t fly against a NZ, SA etc. Those opportunities come later in the second half … but not in the first 20.
