England beat France 26 -17 at Twickenham on Saturday night .

Fin Smith showed there is a difference in the way you can compete in rugby.

The Northampton fly-half showed the difference between him and Marcus Smith .

Marcus Smith is a brilliant runner, who breaks lines and beats defenders.

But Fin Smith's first thought will be how to create a situation for the team to exploit.

England for too long have handed out caps based on the fact that you were in the week before .

I understand consistency is important, but the number of caps you have doesn't give you some special quality.

It means so very little. When talent is coming through, you can't deny it. We have to see what they are like in the heat of battle.
