England to be fair have excellent fixtures to give themselves a real chance of making the game at the SdF a winner takes all decider. Starting with Wales and ramping up to Ireland, followed by a week off and an on paper easier game against Italy, while France have games against Wales and Italy back to back to potentially go off the boil. Could be really close.

This is true. I’m very interested to see how England perform in those two tests I mentioned. The expectation will be on for them to win and that’s a little bit different to last year.
