    No Robshaw. Figured he'd have been a shoe in after the 6 Nations.

    Warburton captain is no surprise

    Pretty happy Parling made it in.

    5 England front rowers is a joke though

    Robshaw pretty stiff, yeah
    Launchbury too

    Bowe's a bit of a surprise, hard to see him getting a game. Hoping Hogg gets a go on the wing.

    embarrassment of riches at centre.

    Somehow Maitland is a Lion now...outrageous.

    It was pretty much always going to be England/Wales plus Healey - Ireland's front row disappeared toward the end of the six nations and Scotland never brought one. Stevens & Vulipola is a bit of a joke but there's no-one else.

    Selection of Warburton as captain and Croft over Robshaw hits towards tactics more than anything else.
