6:43 pm
twickenham is nearly as tough as picking the team. ayman‘s cast of players is currently changing, retired, dropped, injured. less than half of this squad finished the six nations with england. just a year to go to the rugby world cup is not the ideal time to experiment. but experiment they must. so onto twickenham's testing ground came not one but two captains owen ferrell and dylan hartley. as well as being co—skipper he is their kicker. england spent much of the half defending their doormat eventually south africa would find a way through. he spotted it. despite that england went into the break only two points down but the team talk cannot wait for the dressing room, something had to change. momentum came from his book. this could carried 60 metres and carried him and into the lead. south africa snatched it back. again england needed a response. brad shield who
