Assuming his hamstring is ok I'd have Mikey Lewis in at 7 over Smith....controversial for some I know but I think he'd create more than Smith and we'll need that

If Ackers is fit I'd start with him or at least put him 14

I'd also put Oledski in at prop...his athleticism beats Harvard and he's is 6'4

re Englands half backs, Id see whose on form!
At the moment the two form HB's are Lewis and Williams. Lewis and Williams can play 6 or 7 so wait and see whose in best form and pick the best two of them!

Id have Minchella at 13, he's just the player we need to unlock the middle. Edge forward line up of
12 Junior Nsemba
11 Victor Radley
13 Elliot Minchella

thats some potent attack and defense

Big call Minchella but I see where you are coming from...I'd still pick Knowles assuming fully fit and in form

Tbh I haven’t heard of any of those players asides from Welsby and the NRL players. But England had no problems with Tonga and Samoa and the last time they played Australia it as 6-0. Based on that form this series should be decided by a bee’s

Wayne was England coach

re ticket sales. the way they've gone is pretty decent I reckon.
One thing I thought/hoped they may implement...particularly due to the small capacity of the third game in the heartlands...would be similar to what they've done for the Olympics and RUWC in Australia. Could have had it that to lock in a ticket for the high-demand game 3, you had to buy two tickets for game 1 to increase sales. Use your high-demand events to push sales for low demand. eg. Buy gymnastics to lock in swimming, buy Namibia vs Eng to lock in Aus v Eng.
