If you think sinfield doesn't influence the team selection your off your trolley.
I can see why you chose your avatar to be a Muppet

It is a damn shame neither McShane nor Hood have been given a fair crack of the whip owing to the insistence of having to include Burrow in the important hooking role. McShane probably does not have the 80min engine, but sharing the role with Hood each match might have been the answer. ... We will never know now.

The club should do the decent thing and let the lad move on where he will be trusted in the role. It IS obvious McDermott is here to stay and McShane will never get a equal chance to cement a place in the 17. He needs to find Kirke's secret forthwith

Yep Agree with this

Sinfield believes being able to play how he wants, how he plays for his club, however he personally sees fit is [url=http://stevemascord.com/2013/02/19/the-a-list-kevin-sinfield-leeds-england/"A GOOD FIT"[/url.

He wouldn't make my England 17 either, and definitely not on the basis of his form in 2013.

Unfortunately, it appears that his selection for the World Cup as England skipper, playmaker, control freak, plays where he wants, etc, was made quite some time ago no matter what. McNamara is clearly a devoted fan.

He should have retired from internationals after the 2008 World Cup.

"With McNarmara in charge, HE ASKED ME to play how I play at club level"

You keep bringing it up don't you - I've been trying to forget it, I've had extensive counseling for the past 5 years but you still keep reminding us don't you?

Just let it go, what happened happened - let us put our feelings about it in a box then lock it up in a darkened room and not visit that room ever again. Some things are best just forgotten.

My World Cup Final ticket in 2008 was cheap compared to yours




My opinion at the time was - apart from James Graham, none of those useless embarrassing f****** should ever be selected for the national side again! Five years on and one of the most embarrassing of the lot (who was so poor he had to be dropped by his greatest admirer for the semi final) is now the golden booted skipper!

Awww, I don't want to play no more... boo hoo... think I'll retire... sob sob... not enjoying playing internationals... cry cry... can't do what I like...



... or play where I like...



... WHAT? I can do what I like, play where I like, just like I do at club level?

Cheers Steve!

GOOD FIT!

Oh, and thanks for asking

To be fair his role in this England squad is much different to his previous role, so I think we should at least give him a chance before he's hung out to dry.

We all know Sinfield nicked your lunch money off you back at school and that you've still not got over it. But he's still had a decent career despite you spending your nights sticking pins into your Kevin Sinfield voodoo doll, get over it dear boy.
