Foden had a cracking game when coming on as sub against Scotland on Saturday, just ask Alastair Kellock. /spanbr /br /The dynamic young fullback came on as a replacement and looked dangerous with ball in hand more often than not, something that England have lacked in recent times. With Delon Armitage having been released to his club, Foden will no doubt start against France.br /br /Foden showed that he not only has the running and creative game, but packs a punch as he left quite an impression on 6ft9 Scotland lock Kellock.br /br /"I won't forget my introduction to England substitute full-back Ben Foden in a hurry as we collided with such an impact during the second half my back molars rattled.br /br /"It was an elbow to the voice box, or was it his head? No matter, on came our brilliant doc James Robson to secure my neck. Doing my best Barry White impression I managed to assure him I was OK but understandably he was taking no risks after events of recent weeks," he said in his column, in reference to the recent Thom Evans injury.br /br /Foden knocked him to the floor with incredible force, leaving him strewn on the turf for a few minutes while play went on. In a rather comical piece of sporting theatre, Kellock suddenly got up when needed, and played on.br /br /"A request by a medic to secure an oxygen mask to my face was brushed aside and, lo and behold, as I got to my feet didn't the ball just come my way?br /br /"I didn't think twice before grabbing it and heading for a gap in the England defence to roars of laughter from the crowd, a rare moment of comedy in a bruising battle of a game," he added.br /br /span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(51, 51, 51);font-size:85%;" Are you a Rugbydump regular?/spanspan style="font-style: italic;font-size:85%;" span style="color: rgb(153, 0, 0);" /spanspan style="color: rgb(102, 102, 102);"We're making great progress with the redevelopment of the site, so if you'd like to secure your username for when it's launched, please make sure you sign up on the forum as soon as possible. a href="http://forum.rugbydump.com/register.php?"Register now/a. /span/spanbr /br /centerobject height="288" width="400"param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/piAUgjRNGj0amp;hl=en_GBamp;fs=1amp;rel=0"param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/piAUgjRNGj0amp;hl=en_GBamp;fs=1amp;rel=0amp;showinfo=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="288" width="400"/embed/object/centerbr /div style="text-align: center;"span style="font-size:85%;"span style="font-weight: bold;":: Related Posts ::/spanbr /a href="http://rugbydump.blogspot.com/2010/03/scotland-and-england-stalemate-at.html"Scotland and England stalemate at Murrayfield/abr //span/divspan style="font-size:85%;"span style="font-weight: bold;"Time: /span01:18/spandiv class="blogger-post-footer"http://www.rugbydump.comimg width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/32316390-8612446885185187792?l=rugbydump.blogspot.com' alt='' //divdiv class="feedflare" a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/rugbydump?a=sKAi1MMhCf0:1_isSPmk3G0:yIl2AUoC8zA"img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/rugbydump?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"/img/a /divimg src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/rugbydump/~4/sKAi1MMhCf0" height="1" width="1"/ More...
