    I was going to have a go at Toner for being penalty prone, but ffs!

    The Saxons landed on him, he didn't back in, he didn't make any motion towards the jumper, he just protected himself.

    Bent's side of the scrum is flying back when the hit is made.

    Big difference in delivery at scrum half. Wigglesworth is poor.

    At least we can see that Bent can't scrummage . Another shocker . Tell me why we was brought all the way from New Zealand again?

    Slightly better at the hit that time, but the 2nd shove pushed Bent back. Hmm...

    Coughlan is playing class behind a scrum going backwards.

    Its a pity he's not more flexible, would be great as a bench option for Heaslip.

    But now, the backrow replacement has to have experience at 6/7/8 really.

    Henshaw doing well in the air there.

    Henshaw is immaculate under the high ball, whatever about the other aspects of his game.

    England 15 has a fairly big boot on him.

    Coughlan is an out & out 8. I don't see anyone saying Heaslip has to be more flexible.
