Fassi is not performing at his best. There are too many handling errors from the seniors as well, we can't rely on Pollard forever.

It feels like the team has lost confidence in themselves? Maybe it is the come down from the mental toughness from the WC and 2024. You can ride the wave for a while, but it has to crash at some point.

Maybe we need to bench the old guard for the autumn nations and only play people under 30? Give the old guys some rest and fire to fight for their place?
