But isnt that just the problem with the British game? No quality centres so lets put a second rower there.

Arundel (Shentons replacement) had been playing really well this season and is a good goal kicker. Might be a bit early for him though.

first game of his i saw was ok, last night was much better

contributed well in attack and defence ....

I'd put Pryce on my England bench every single time we play, can cover all the backs positions if there's an injury and is big enough to play in the back row along with playing his best position at 6.

He actually looks like a proper standoff, he can pass, can kick and and can side step. Best prospect for an Englaish half I have seen in many a year and under Bellamy he is only going to get better.

But in an international game surely the best option is to go with 2 front row replacements, a mobile backrower and a utility hooker who can possibly cover the halves. Unfortunately Pryce hits none of these criteria so unless you fancy taking on the aussies with an 80 minute hooker or a forward down against a team thats played with 10 interchanges all season, it just wouldnt work imho. but then again thats what the coaches radio is for. (or listening to local competition results if youre sean long)
