English media have confirmed this is the team.

Rank them from twitter followers.

Their two best Lions players, Parling and Corbisiero are missing. Big losses.

Nemani Nadolo.. rings a bell. I think he's played in Australia?

England have named the 23 for the Test but not the actual team list. My guess: 1. Mako Vunipola 2. Tom Youngs 3. Dan Cole 4. Joe Launchbury 5. Courtney Lawes 6. Tom Wood 7. Chris Robshaw 8. Billy Vunipula 9. Ben Youngs 10. Owen Farrell 11. Marland Yarde 12. Billy Twelvetrees 13. Joel Tomkins...

I would start your best scrum against Italy (although Ewen doesn't seem to know which that is). Scotland's scrum is the only weak one.

Yeah mistake, I meant 1 extra but Australia played 2 extra in 2011. So 4 more than NZ.

All Blacks don't play NPC games...

I meant including 2011 where Australia played an extra 2 on the EOYT and they will play an extra 3 on this year's EOYT for 5 more than the next. Outrageous from the ARU.

Would be interesting to tally up the number of Tests Australia has played since 2011 to everyone else. My guess the next closest, NZ would be at least 5 behind.

Considering he came 2nd in the JEM those Lions games must've rated very highly for him.

I have no idea why people are still selecting Slipper and Alexander as the props. They were horrendous around the park last Test and if they're not performing in the scrums why the hell are they being persisted with. What have Robinson and Kepu done wrong? They were the best Australian scrum in...

Yeah you have people complaining about Palu's injuries yet he's played triple the amount of Test rugby Pocock has in the last 2 years.

Lopeti Timani will have a breakout season at 6. He could be Australia's Liam Messam. He was excellent throughout the Shute Shield once he moved to 6, big impact and high workrate.

You've done very well. I think Billy Vunipola will get the #8 over Morgan however. Brown at fullback and Wade on the other wing.

I think that was Mark Chisholm actually. He's doing very well for Bayonne at the moment, I bet Ewen would love to call him up.

Adam Ashley-Cooper as captain, that far-fetched?

Is that Chapman with grey hair?

I think they'll cut it sometime next week and release them back to clubs.
