Entirely with Jammy here - he’s right and you’re miles off I’m afraid

There are rules for England players not England coaches, not up to Jones to set rules but he does have to follow them - so it can’t be hypocritical of him to follow them unless he’s always promised to break the rules - which he hasn’t.

And Jammy also spot on with why Jones has picked the Quins players.

If club form and international form were the same then Wade, Kvesic, etc etc would all have had England careers - they didn’t because they’re not international class.

We don’t have a new 15, so Brown is going to keep being in the squad (as an “11”) until we do.

Jones tried some other 9s, they were bobbins so Care is back.

Robshaw has played 1 poor game but that’s all.

Marler is one of the world’s best props

And yes, by all accounts, Ford is having a good season.
