Can never understand why Alex Goode isn't in his place.

Has Brown been dropped though ?
This is no where near a full strength England squad, and so if Brown is dropped, then so are many others ?

Agreed Tiggs - I don’t believe Dan Cole has been dropped/discarded either.

Because he's had many, many shots at England, and has fluffed his lines every time. Great club player, average at best international, like many before him.

Cole's not been picked for 4 tests now, he's clearly been dropped.

Fair enough.

In fact Goode has had very few chances, not as many as his performances have deserved

21 caps is considered 'few', is it?

Wasps fans wonder where their player Daly has gone because this year's version isn't one they recognise and he hasn't knocked Brown out of the reckoning.
It isn't Brown's fault that none one is putting their hand up.
I'm undecided whether to continue with Daly or whether he needs a reboot or rest. But atm, he is definitely blowing the audition. Imo.

He's been capped twice since the last RWC against Italy (s a sub) and Fiji. And only 5 times since 2013/14 season.
And those 21 caps do include a win against NZ, so yeah I'd say he's been fairly short changed at times over the years.
