It’s been a bang average year.
Does seem that way yet somehow we still have the Bled and the RC and are mikes ahead in the calendar year try scoring count.

It's Mark Telea, not Mike.

Hopefully Eddie tries to goad the ABs and it motivates them.
If that makes ya feel better then swing for the stars!
I find it pretty funny to think the professional ABs playing England at Twickenham in their final match of the year after a lacklustre showing against Scotland - would need a known troll to be a bit mean just so they can be motivated.

From now on I shall refer to the right winger who made his debut against Scotland this morning (NZT) as Mike Talea.

For all the talk about the AB selection , I feel the England selection to be both more interesting and more problematic.
Have Eddie’s recent selections been of any help in his “learnings”?
S Foster. (Amusingly that came out as Fister, what that says about my browsing history is worrying). Has he a much clearer view on his starting XV than me might believe? Will he persist with Farrell at 12 and shoe horn Tuilagi in at 13? What is going to happen at 9 and 8?The answer to all those questions is fuck knows. 😬

I suspect you are bored so you are just trying to create your own angle.
I didn't say the above.
Eddie plays mind games. They amuse me. But I hope if he plays them against the ABs they backfire. I am after all an ABs fan.
I didn't say that the ABs lack motivation. But anything that augments that motivation is good.
I understand though if the distinction is too subtle for you. -
@nostrildamus fuck I hope it happens otherwise we don't have a chance. Where's the motivation otherwise.

I understand.So subtle I need extra motivation, just like the ABs.

Doesn't seem like you need any to keep this thread going

@MiketheSnow Dmac isn't in the ABs. He'll join the Baabaas this week.

With Foster obviously not trusting Perofeta, if Mo gets injured I'd be far more confident with DMac going to 10 than BB
You pick your best 23
