Enjoyed the rugby at the weekend?

I wasn't, actually.

I was in France and I only watched two games.

Sorry, no, I only watched three games.

So I had a chance to re-watch a few back again.

Family holiday, I couldn't just lie on the couch.

There's two areas that it becomes an advantage.

With Joe, obviously, Joe Lewis has an in-depth knowledge of how England do things.

I think he has the calling system.

So their phase calling system or line-out calling system.

And that to an opposition coach is massive.

However, that erodes over time.

Because as England evolve and as England continue, look, they might even be going through a whole new coaching staff before the World Cup as well.

Those calls and systems will actually just kind of fade away and new calling systems will come in.

But for the initial start of it, it would have spooked England enough

of how much Joe knows about them.

So does the line-out coach go, oh, my God, I have to change all my line-out costs?

Oh, are phase plays?

And they'd have a rake of little micro plays, little one simple calling systems like Flash and Harry and whatever they're going to use.

And did they change that?
