Nope, no need to, without sounding full of it, there's no one else in the south, apart from a combined Islander team which could realistically compete at that level for at least the next 10 years.

Rugby World Cup schedule has been posted even though qualifying still continues

https://www.rugbyworldcup.com/fixtures

As an American I feel that the poo we are in guarantees us little chance of advancement unless we improve dramatically over the next two years. As it stands we might get one win to go along with the sound drubbing we will get from the English.

So, nearly 6 nations time again folks, does anyone think that any of the teams can knock England off their perch?

Can England do the slam again?

Personally I think England will win the competition again, not sure if we can do the grand slam again though.
