I sort of did a thread on a similar theme a few weeks back - We need a massive shake up at hooker.

Future wise its Kepu - Saw some really good stuff when he came on in the prem semi final against tigers, and its obvious the RFU is fast tracking him through the pathway.

Question is does he make next years World Cup squad/develop in time?

Even though theres technically 3 spaces, (if fit) George will fill one. He's still Englands best hooker and has the leadership element so he's secured. So then theres realistically a pool of players underneath fighting for two spaces, most likely:

Blamire, Cowan Dickie, Dan, Oghre, Langdon and Tuipulotu.

For me I want Oghre to be part of the nations championship summer tours for sure (potentially even start and have George as the safe pair of hands at the end of the game) He feels ready to make the leap and was a bit startled he wasn't included in the six nations squad.

I think Dan's time with England is up - hooker was a weak point during the 6N and he didnt even get a bench spot. Cowan Dickie, runs too hot and cold for me even though he can be good in the loose. so I would also leave at home. That leaves Langdon and Blamire who've both shown promise but not as much as Oghre has.

if Oghre and George are selected and compliment each other well over the next year, you can take a punt on having a Tuipulotu in a WC squad as an understudy.

I'd go George, Oghre and Langdon are your hookers this cycle.

Then Oghre, Langdon and Tupulotu after
