Preparation for England match

This was our last day of real preparation before the England game on Monday. The selections were announced before the morning session so that the starting 15 could work together (I'm starting at #9). The morning was pretty light - we ran through some offensive set pieces (kick offs, 22 drop outs, etc). Then we had a long break for lunch and down time, which for me included reading a non-law-related book for the first time in roughly 3 years and some much-needed napping. It began raining just as we were headed out for our afternoon session, but it didn't keep us from having another productive practice. Afterwards we had our ice baths, then showers, and now we're heading to dinner. Later we'll have a couple more meetings then off to bed. Tomorrow will be low-key.

Here's a pic of us booting up for the morning.
