"It'd be a bold move to leave Jones out, PR-wise, but I get the feeling that it'd be fairly well-received. Much like it would've been if Wilkinson hadn't retired and Lancaster had left him out. Wales were exciting as hell in the World Cup because it was so obvious they were looking forwards, so it's a golden opportunity to do anything that hints at progress and avoid the public backlash that leaving out established guys might otherwise attract. Side note on this subject - I'm loving that nobody, but nobody, is weeping over the exclusion of Mike Tindall.Speaking of moving forwards, I'm really hoping England capture some of that same spirit, and I'm actually pretty confident that we can. The match with Wales could be a fucking cracker if our new guys step it up.EDIT: And yeah, fair point on Twelvetrees. He's a shoe-in to be involved at some point before the next World Cup IMO, especially if he keeps his kicking as good as it was against Wasps last week. "
