being fair i can fully understand Lomax and Walmsley not playing
Lomax has been carrying an injury most of the season, and was probably advised he was ok to carry on playing (subject to no further damage), but would need surgery at the end of the season. Big impact on England's half options and ability as he can take the ball to the line, creating space outside, so will be a miss
Walmsley will be a miss, but nothing like if we were missing Peacock, Morley, Graham or Burgess for example. i personally think he has yet to carry club form onto the international stage, and not close to being the same class as the others mentioned
Percival, bit of a strange one. He should be fit and raring to go, unless Saints risked his injury for the sake of 2 games at the end of the season.
