Burgess starting at 12 on Saturday.

Needs a big game if he is going to force his way into the WC squad.

He's going to have a tough job to get in if you ask me. Good luck to him though

[Chazza]

Versatile though be handy to have in the squad covering a few positions.

[RichC]

Yeah very true. Just think this WC is probably a season too early for him if that makes sense.

[RichC]

It'll be interesting to see how Burgess gets on tonight

[Chazza]

How's he got on?

[RichC]

He's done pretty well. Got stuck in with the tackles and has certainly asked the question about making the final squad.

[Chazza]

Couple of lovely tries from Watson.

[RichC]

Yeah he's done himself no harm with those tries. Good bit of pace

[Chazza]

Slide must have had a good game then judging on the reports.

[RichC]

Yeah Slade had a good game alright

[Chazza]

Shocking start from England.

Penalties all over the shop

[Chazza]

And WTF is going on with the pitch?

[Chazza]

Great try that for the French.

[RichC]

This has been utter rubbish
