Like having Nigel Owens on the commentary team today, some vague distant name recognition seems to trump knowledge of the modern game

Based on the last few times I’ve seen him commentate on RL that’s even more embarrassing. Huge tying an onion to your belt vibe

I mean you’re literally paid to analyse and explain the game

Looking forward Lord Baldemort blithely saying ‘Andy Farrell & Shaun Edwards dream ticket’ in the Daily Mail

Pretty stark assessment from Alex Lowe, and that run of games won’t help Borthwick’s case much.

I’m hoping Dewi Lake will get the same opportunity before long. The poor sod has aged in dog years since getting the job

I think so. There will be a lot weighing up access before going over the top I think.

I saw that their rugby editor liked it this morning so I know where to invoice

Who is going to be the first pundit to call for Borthwick’s head. Excluding the Telegraph’s Oliver Brown, who is just a joker

Borthwick has picked all manner of coaches, but never moved them on if it’s not working. So many voices, it’s no wonder the players look bewildered when pressured
