I'm interested to see Tait back in the side at 13. Although I do feel that Hipkiss is a good player, I'm hoping that Tait will be given a real go as he is a good runner. He will hopefully also benefit from having Flutey inside him (though it pains me to see a Kiwi there).
On the fence: JW - as much as I admire him, I'm not sure he's right for moving the team forward. That said, he is getting good game time in France (according to the reports I am reading...). Moyne - played out of position in the autumns, let's see what he can give in position, but he has little room for error IMO.
Weak link? Who else but Borthwick... I think only an injury will get MJ to change him...
Another concern for me is Easter. I just don't think he cuts the grade at international level. He always appears slow and direct (i.e. no variation) and therefore easy to anticipate and take down.
Overall if the team are given a clear strategy that they can convert to tactics and execute them well, they should be able to do some damage, but that is a big "if" based on previous "rabbit in headlights" performances...
