They have then narrowly lost out to a Wales team which I honestly think is one of the best Wales teams on paper I have seen in a long time.....
Given the right coaching and support I think the young members of this team have shown real flair that will provide exciting times to come.....I am also a Leicester fan, but I feel that the partnership of Dickson and Farrell was brilliant. When Youngs and Flood came on I thought England became too slow at the breakdown.
Add to the mix the likes of Tuilagi, Ashton, Barritt, Dan Cole etc etc etc.....this is an England team being built for the future.

IMO both correct, at this present moment England has only put in a good performance against Wales so far but I still admire them for their ability to grind wins out. England are still living in the shadow of the World Cup and Grand Slam teams of old in achievement but they have the potential to be one of the top 4 teams along with Wales and NZ in the world over the next few years. The Lions team should be pretty awesome with the young Halfpenny, Warburton, North, Farrell and Hogg playing well.
