Fields Oct 2023 7:53pm, 7 Oct 2023 10,021 posts	0 Fields None of the 2019 starters still in the team are better now, a few possibly at same standard most in decline due to age or form. Some of them are IMO unselectable or at least nowhere near a 23 and this includes Youngs, May, Vunipola, Daly and most of all Farrell, who offers little in attack (butchered a pass with numbers on the overlap in 2nd half) and whose kicking has been poor for while, and kicks will need to be made to get through the knockout phase. Genge only one who has improved but he was not a 2019 starter and he’s been v quiet during the tournament.
Cheg Oct 2023 7:57pm, 7 Oct 2023 4,021 posts	0 Cheg I did a blog after our near miss in the rugby in 2019 and our win in the cricket World Cup, about trying to repeat. simonssportingblog.wordpress.com It looked like we had a youthful team that would stand us in good stead for this years World Cup. Agreed, lots of regression.
