Im not sure if the backs are getting tired of me always being in the way, but I am really enjoying my rugby at the moment, Vunipola told skysports.com.Scoring that try against the Scarlets was great but if I had a choice I would say its better to dominate your opponent at the scrum than scoring tries - if you can do that, then you can really give your team a platform to build on. Mako Vunipola scores a great try for Saracens against Scarlets Its tough these days though as you have to work really hard to get one over your opponent - but when you do, its a really satisfying moment.Its nice to hear people appreciate what I am doing on the pitch but rugby is not about one person and I am lucky enough to be in a great side who are all playing well.England kick off their autumn series against South Africa on Saturday and although they have not beaten the Boks in 10 years, Eddie Jones men are still the favourites to extend their match-winning streak to ten.The Boks are in a re-building phase and they have lost four of their last five Tests, however Vunipola says they are still one of the toughest opponents out there and England will have to be ready for a bruising battle.South Africa are a very physical side - you can never underestimate them, added Vunipola, who will win his 36th cap if selected.

Hes brought in some different tackle techniques and given us a few ideas of what say the second man in does. Jason Ryles puts England through their defensive paces Vunipola was one of the stars of the summer series where England whitewashed Australia along with the likes of James Haskell and his Saracens team-mates George Kruis and Maro Itoje.With Kruis and Itoje out injured, Vunipola will have a different lock partnership packing down behind him but says whoever Jones picks will be up for the job.One of the biggest parts of international rugby is getting to know each other and how we all play. The quicker we can do that, the better - obviously playing with George and Itoje at Saracens has been a huge help for me as we know each other so well.Their injuries have been a big blow for them but we have Joe Launchbury and Courtney Lawes as well as Dave Attwood and Charlie Ewels.

The Argentine midfielder made the announcement himself on Twitter on Tuesday and posted a picture of his swollen left foot. His message said he would be out "at least three weeks.INDIANAPOLIS -- The Colts are giving running back Chris Rainey a second chance to prove he can play -- and stay out of trouble. Pittsburgh took Rainey in the fifth round of the 2012 draft, but released him in January following an arrest in Florida following an alleged altercation with his girlfriend. It wasnt the first time he ran into legal trouble, but for the Steelers it was the last straw. For 11 months, Rainey worked out and waited to be signed by another NFL team. Indianapolis (7-3) reached out to him Tuesday and signed him Wednesday. "Eleven months is a long time so Im just glad to be back," Rainey said Wednesday. Rainey is the latest gamble made by the Colts this season. They had previously signed receiver DaRick Rogers, who admitted to flunking multiple drug tests in college. They also have receiver LaVon Brazill, a second-year player they drafted in 2012 who missed four games after violating the leagues substance-abuse policy, and tight end Weslye Saunders, who was suspended eight games after violating the leagues performance-enhancing drug policy. Theres little doubt the 5-foot-9, 198-pound running back has talent. Coming out of the University of Florida, he was clocked in about 4.3 seconds in the 40-yard dash. And last season, Rainey played in all 16 games, rushing 26 times for 102 yards and two touchdowns while catching 14 passes for 60 yards. He also averaged 26.5 yards on kickoff returns. And hhe finished ninth on Floridas career rushing list with 2,464 yards. Erik McCoy Jersey. But the problems have come off the field. In college, he was reportedly charged with stalking -- something the Steelers investigated before taking him. In Pittsburgh, he reportedly received citations for driving with a suspended license, which was later dismissed, and "defiant trespass" at a casino -- and that was before the alleged trouble in Florida. Colts coach Chuck Pagano said Wednesday that the Colts made their expectations clear before signing Rainey even though its unclear how long hell stick around the Colts locker room. "We worked him out. We sat him down, spent a lot of time with him, obviously," Pagano said. "We feel like hes learned from his mistakes and theyre behind him." Rainey later acknowledged he has a different attitude about this chance because he spent so much time waiting to get back in the league, even turning down chances to play in the Canadian Football League. Wednesdays move is Indys latest attempt to shore up its offence since top receiver Reggie Wayne went out with a season-ending knee injury, and theyre hoping this one works out. Rainey insists hell make sure it does. "All I can do is move forward and just stay positive from here," Rainey said. "I know what people read. They dont know me, so the people who know me, they know me. I cant do nothing about it." ' ' '
