It will be interesting to follow the two pairs of centers this Saturday. On the English side, Eddie Jones and Steve Borthwick never really found the right formula in the center. The relapses of Tuilagi, the average performance of Porter… But since the victory in Italy, the three-quarter center of Bath Ollie Lawrence seems to settle alongside Henry Slade. Very dynamic and powerful, he may have THE profile that English supporters are waiting for.
On the other side, Warren Gatland has not found the right solution either. Winger George North has often been replaced in the center, without much success. It’s a new pair that comes forward this afternoon. Youngsters Joe Hawkins and Mason Grady (both 20) will try to bring power and speed to struggling Wales. Grady will be particularly ) to follow, he who has a very interesting size (1m96, 110 kg).
