Daily Mail going with:
Daly, Nowell, Slade, Tuilagi, May, Farrell, Youngs; M Vunipola, George, Sinckler, Itoje, Lawes, Wilson, B Vunipola, Curry.
I’d love to see that team as a rubby fan - Think they’d give Ireland a very good game. Curry very inexperienced and could have a tough day but worth blooding now.
England beat SA and ran NZ very close in the Autumn- they are not a million miles off Ireland but we should have enough for a 26 - 17 win. England just dont have enough to disrupt our strengths - the lineout and at breakdown.
Is this the new craic now is it?
England are coming in under radar Saturday, I think it’s a 3 point game either way

Is Carberry only on loan to Munster?
Henshaw at 15 is a concern. Was there any South African or New Zealander available to fill that slot without shoehorning in Henshaw?

Can we get a ruling on this @GeoffreyBoycott ?
When will this AIL club nonsense end? Have they a game for their “clubs” between them?
Tradition mate. Like the captains run
Galwegians work at underage really paying off, great to see them with 2 lads making it into the 23.
I love this time of year. Going for a few pints to watch the six nations, you get a great class of person out watching it and the women are unreal

He’s ftom Athlone so a good chance it is Mel
