Here’s what England and Harlequins prop Joe Marler said after asked who has the world’s best scrummager right now.
“France are very, very good at the minute. William Servat (France scrum coach) and the things that he is doing with the French front rows, I like a lot of what he is about,” said Marler

“Who else is good? Ireland. Tadgh (Furlong) is very good. (Andrew) Porter was going really well until he got his injury, which is a shame.
“Yeah, some good ones out there. I like front rows, I like that one question.”
