Should South African-born Benhard Janse van Rensburg be in the England squad for this summer's Tests? 🤔

@AdamWarwick86 @PaulCon27059910 @OvalBrain @rugbyontnt Harding should 100% be pushing for a place in the 23 imo, captains a side pushing for the play offs and is right at the top of all the stats for flankers. O'Conor being overlooked in 2021 was bizarre as one example, nominated for POTS but overlooked for Ojomoh with 4 appearances

@AdamWarwick86 @PaulCon27059910 @OvalBrain @rugbyontnt Harding should be in the wider squad, Oghre was overlooked for Dan in the autumn as was Batley for Clark. Over the past few years there have been some bizarre calls against Bristol players as well. Add this to the catchment area issue and it’s not wonder our academy struggles

@AdamWarwick86 @PaulCon27059910 @OvalBrain @rugbyontnt Genge is arguably one of the best looseheads in the world, of course he’d be capped. Bristol have been back in the Prem for 9 seasons and in that time only two players have been given their first England cap whilst at the club. Only newcastle have had less, it’s mental

@the_LTA @WTA The move in the calendar has clearly been huge, that’s a very strong field for a 250. Looking forward to being there!

@MichaelBird77 @rugbyontnt Probably because the Boks have the best centres in world rugby. If he's eligible (which he is) then he'll only improve our team

@rugbyontnt Why should England select someone who wasn’t deemed good enough for the boks?

@JacCooper1 Harding should be starting. He’d be in the main squad if he was a tiger or a saint

Benhard Janse van Rensburg is as English as biltong. I agree with every word of this. I don’t want a debate whether he is better than the incumbents, we need to draw a line and as one of the largest unions develop our own irrespective of how good he is. telegraph.co.uk/rugby-union/20…

@RugbyBath As a Bristol fan I dream of the day we come close to having 5 players in an England squad!

"The five biggest selection casualties (include Bath 4 - Henry Arundell, Max Ojomoh, Ollie Lawrence & Alfie Barbeary) from England's latest squad ...Bath only have five players in the squad, two of which are uncapped – Kepu Tuipulotu and Billy Sela..." rugbypass.com/news/the-five-…

@RussBrookes1981 Not a fan of the residency rules but he's the best centre in the country, while they're in place he should be in. Plus it's nice to see a Bristol player not called Genge called up for once, it's been a while!

Janse van Rensburg's call up at the expense of Ollie Lawrence and Max Ojomoh makes my head hurt. I don't have a problem with the residency rules but this one just doesn't make sense to me.

Deserved? I think he is, not let anyone down at Bath in a high performing team & I think the fact nobody can claim a drop off or they’re lacking depth when called upon is as big a compliment. Just because he may not have the highlight reel of some doesn’t mean he’s not as deserving.

Great to see so many well deserved inclusions even if it's just for a training camp. Brilliant to see George Martin in an England squad, same with Feyi-Waboso & hoping they can both stay fit for a prolonged period as both are huge misses when injured. Bracken & McParland coming through is brilliant, i'd be very nervous if I were JVP & Ben Spencer as one of those boys are missing out. Jamie Blamire is more than deserving to be in the squad, Sela & Tuipulotu are definitely the future of the front 3. But surely, the biggest news is van Rensburg's inclusion don't be surprised when he's joined by Hoskins Sotutu in the autumn.

@Certinfy Rai is 31, has been a pro for 14 years and has been in the worlds top 20. Raducanu was 18, had been a pro for less than a year and hadn’t been inside the worlds top 100. Sure, his is more impressive!

What Aaron Rai did is far more impressive than what Emma Raducanu did just to put it out there.

@scoopmalinowski So 'they' have ensured that the level of others isn't as good as Sinner and Alcaraz? Listen to yourself, you're sounding more desperate by the day

The script is now too obvious. Everybody can see they want the anti Djokovic to break more and more records and someday eventually surpass Djokovic. This operation is driven by greed, hate and control.

@RugbyInsideLine Harding won’t get a look in, plays for the wrong side. I’d like to see Archie McParland given a go, got lots of potential
