#3. Owen Farrell (England)
RUCK: Described this week as ‘undroppable’, but the England captains inclusion in the team really did upset the balance with youngster Marcus Smith playing second fiddle and Manu Tuilagi looking lost out wide. His goal-kicking wasn’t bad, but that was about the only positive from Farrell. Bringing Malins on the wing will give Jones’ men better width as they look to unlock the Springbok defence next Saturday. Give Smith the keys already Eddie!
Rugby Pass 6/10: “Bringing up the tonne, Farrell linked up well alongside his understudy at stand-off, although the 20-year-old didn’t need much minding. Limped off with a ‘bang’ to the foot. Why does it feel like something still isn’t quite firing at the moment for Farrell?”
