Rieko is definitely on the outer.

ALB sucks as a bench option

Gets a bench spot

Make it make sense....

Bovidae

@KiwiMurph Says more about them not trusting LF or RI as 12 cover. They should have been bold and gone with a 6:2 split too.

@Bovidae Leinster must be wishing they’d signed Proctor instead.

Think this team is fairly telling. Sititi to the bench says they are wanting to match England for impact. ALB offers no punch, tend to agree on a 6-2 split, but given the injuries, not sure I'd have Kirifi.

Gonna need another FIIDIM myself performance from DMac to pull this one out.

I guess we will play the final quarter with 14 men again.... 🙄

Rieko would be soooo much better than ALB. Fucken old timers day at Twickenham

6, 13 and 22 are a big let down

I dont understand that they trust Leicester at 13 but not at 12. I would like to see him more at 12 if anything.

@canefan The Barrett's have a history of YCs at Twickenham.

A big opportunity for Parker. I’m glad they picked him to start. I much prefer Sititi in the role he has played off the bench.

Proctor I’m a little less sold on but he did a couple of good things when he came on last weekend.

ALB will be as fresh as fresh can be. If only TNT were fit.

Proctor. Well, we're clearly not trying to win the game with pace.

Dynamic wing or centre vs pedestrian centre…..make it make sense razor…..

Been a long while since I heard someone describe Rieko Ioane as dynamic

He's a better MF than ALB, but dynamic winger is definitely a stretch

Yeah agree very disappointing the team looks weaker with those 3 inclusions.
I hope Parker proves me wrong and plays a blinder to win we need him too or we could get dominated in the LFs.
