MORE RUGBY (You can never have enough)

Neil Back has been dropped by England!!! Woodward is definitely a driven man. He tells everyone to make sure they are available for selecation and then drops one of England's longest-serving and most loyal players. Backy is 35 now so the chances of him getting back into the squad look remote. I think it's a bit harsh to drop him without giving him the chance to "retire" gracefully but, but Woodward has always said he picks on form not emotion, and is true to his word.

On the plus side, that means Backy and Jonno will both be available for Tigers during the 6 Nations, and boy do we need them!
