    Looks like that England will be without Julian White and now Phil Vickery as well!!!

    See here for details:

    Gloucester and England prop Phil Vickery to miss rest of RBS 6 Nations Championship after breaking bone in his forearm against Bath.

    Duncan Bell will probably start now, unless Sheridan gets the nod.

    I'm getting a bit worried that England will be forced to pick their strongest team by dint of injuries.
    Vickery was taken to the cleaners against the french and looked about 2 stone under his normal weight. Sheridan is a better player at this moment in time.

    I see Barkly is injured as well which means there is a good chance that A Goode will play and he is a better kicker than Hodgeson or Barkly....

    Yeah but will they let him kick? If they do they may as well forget ever picking Hodgson again (which might not be that bad an idea) as his confidence will be gone altogether

    It really is a golden opportunity for the Irish but then again they dont play well as favourites......

    andrew sheridan is a quality player. id say he will have to come into the squad. even though he is a converted second rower, he is a lethal ball carrier and his scrummaging is solid. he is a loose head though as far as i can remember
