What next for Farrell?
Chris, Ugo and Ashy pick through the bones of another eventful August weekend
Chris, Ugo and Ashy pick through the bones of another eventful August weekend. England beat Wales at Twickenham, but the collateral damage is severe with Jack van Poortvliet ruled out and Owen Farrell facing a ban. We discuss Farrell’s tackling and how Steve Borthwick will deal with the loss of his captain, and ask whether Alex Mitchell can make an impact as van Poortvliet’s replacement. Scotland impress despite a narrow loss to France, but there is injury woe for Les Bleus. Meanwhile, Warren Gatland is getting closer to knowing his first-choice Wales team, but does the lopsided World Cup draw look even worse as we near the start of the tournament?
