In the RWC, Australia ran the 'Pooper' combination of Pocock and Hooper, both world class no.7s. Pocock played at 8 and was awarded player of the tournament. Proof that a fast, smart, poaching no.7 is essential in the modern game with the breakdown rules being as they now are.

Having said that, Itoje is no mug at the breakdown.

So you should be, I thought that Scotland went very well and were unfortunate not to get at least one more result.

You won't be too disappointed when the next Lions squad is announced I reckon.

Yea thanks I thought we deserved another win but we will take what we got. Hope we get a fair share of selection this time as the last tour was a bit shy of Scottish.
