Luds should make his own CZcams channel and have this for when he’s at saints. This would be so sick to see as a more regular thing for all the players
I think even Curry will find it hard to get back in the starting backrow. How can you drop Ludlam or Willis? Think there is so much potential with it. Dombrandt will just keep getting better if given time at this level also. Love this series!
So true... You know you've got depth in the back row when players like Curry could be coming on as an impact sub... To be honest I'd love to see Curry at 6 with Willis at 7 and Ludlam at 8. Then we have Mercer and Dombrandt too... And Pearson and Earl. The depth is insane!
@@christianwithers7335 Sadly Sam U looks like concussion issues are going to curtail his rugby career. Fingers crossed he is fit and healthy. Love Lewis Ludlam but Tom Pearson at Exiles really should have been given a chance this 6N over Ben Curry
Song at 6:36? Also Ludlam has been class this six nations really proven me wrong, always thought it should be Willis Earl dombrandt but Ludlam has made himself undroppable
@@cathalodiubhain5739 one of. Not the best. From an Irish perspective I’m under the impression that you would prefer him to Smith because Farrell plays for territory and this plays into the hands of teams with physically superior packs such as South Africa, Ireland and France. Smith leads the attach in a much more fluid and mobile way that relies on a quality back row. Ultimately I don’t think the style of rugby that won Borthwick the premiership is the style of rugby that will win a World Cup.
@@laurenanderson5634 Farrell is a fierce competitor, relishing the physical side of the game to a point where his tackle height has been injudicious on occasion. He has a superb temperament which he has shown for club, country and the Lions He has a great range to his passing and kicking and if given any platform will put his team into the right places; that allied to the vision that he brings in putting teammates into space makes him such an outstanding player. As I said one of the best but not the best. For me that goes to Johnny Sexton.
@@Baz502 "He's got four European Cups, a Grand Slam, four [Six Nations] championships, six URC [league] titles, Lions tours, he's now beaten New Zealand multiple [five] times, he's got over 100 caps. "If you look at the impact that Johnny has on rugby matches when he's playing, versus when he's not playing, it's crazy. It's really, really crazy. And the fella is 37, so that plays its' part - to be still going at this age plays a massive part into answering that question. "He still wants more, as well. I've known Johnny a long time, back to when I was playing at Leinster. He's mellowed out definitely, in a good way. Him being the captain of the national team has been brilliant for him. It has almost, in a small way, forced him to chill out that small bit, which has been good, particularly for everyone around him! "And it's been good for himself. He's not as highly strung. He hasn't lost that drive or desire. You'd thing that if he loses a bit of that, is he going to lose his edge, too. But he hasn't. "I know that he's announced he's retiring after the World Cup, so he obviously has a big 12, 15 months ahead. If we can do what we are planning to do what we are driving towards, I don't think that question would be in doubt. But, at the moment, he is definitely up there." The likes of Dan Carter and Richie McCaw would both have strong claims to the title of best players of the modern, professional era, and perhaps of all-time, while Jonny Wilkinson and Brian O'Driscoll are both highly regarded by current and past pros. Sexton is lauded in all rugby nations as a influential player, but he would definitely need a World Cup win to be in the conversation, for most supporters. That is exactly what Andy Farrell's Ireland are targeting at next year's World Cup, in France.
What part of the watt bike is related to rugby , you don't use a bike on the pitch , your running not cycleing in games . Maybe that's why England have no pace around the pitch , because watt bike impacts running speed , it's been proven , Steve borthwick are you listening. I'll come rugby hq and you guys listen to me , be playing like the all blacks in no time .

Defo!
Hundred percent!
Big fan of Mr Ludlum. Does so much vital work around the park.
The hard graft he puts in during the games is incredible. Proper workhorse mentality.
@32 to 12 oh look a insecure biltong munchers
Standout player for england this 6N
Absolutely love luds, cracking player!

Thanks for sharing, good luck guys.
Loving the look and feel of these videos. As a film maker and Rugby super fan I really enjoy catching up with the 02 inside line content. 😎
Love this - Ludlam is excellent.
Nice to see the Saints boys all together at the beginning.
Come on the boys!! 🏴
Love these vids
Idk if anyone saw but on one of the scrum shots it was Ludlum at 8 and Lawes at 6. Maybe that could happen for France game
@32 to 12 hahahahahah you absolute weapon! 😂😂😂 Bok fans are officially the worst fans in the world! Well done 🔔🔚

Lawes injured now, again 😢
This conveys pretty well that much of the life of a professional is spent being totally fooked
Good luck boy's against the french Le crunch 🍎 🏉🏴🌹
@32 to 12 to who ?
Anyone have a prediction score. I'm 27-
19 england for the win
Once I put this on 1.25 speed I thoroughly enjoyed. Come on the boys!
Curious what hotel that is. Looks nice!
Harbour hotel
Metropol or Grand. Both next to each other on seafront.
Come on Ludlam!
Cat poo calendar. Yes Lewis, that's superb!
@4:12 I felt that😅
Harbour hotel!
What is matte?

What IS that? (n00b question, sorry!)
Better than Ganges talk over video 😆
Is Chessum wearing spongebob speedos?
@32 to 12 I rate this if this is a bot, if you're a human doing this you need to touch grass.
Mitchell 9, Smith 10, Lawrence 12, Slade or Marchant at 13 that’s all I ask
Agreed
And Radwan or Murley in squad at least over May
Borthwick won’t pick that backline.
@@mrpiggy1237 No, it might do well...and kick goals
Ah, I see the “only flair and pace matter in rugby” brigade have poked their head
Owen Farrell talks a good game…..
he is one of the best players in his position

He's no Wilkinson, but definitely better than Sexton. Made it to a world cup final after all, Sexton never did and really never will
