Quote: rollin thunder "Its a waste on time anyway, wane already knows what his side/squad will be regardless of form/talent, how can the likes of Bateman Williams Ratchford Watkins and a fair few others be even considered on current form or form over last couple of years. This is one reason we always struggle against the Aussies, they have a selection committee they don’t pick the team on if your face fits.
Its a rubbish pointless fixture anyway.'"
I agree it's not ideal or what we want ( of course we all want the Aussies or Islands over here for series) but along with a France fixture it's pretty much all we have until the NRL decide to back more internationals
For that reason I'm getting behind it....I went last year and will probably go again with my two little oned decked out in England gear........if we love the game maybe we need to be a bit more positive ourselves about the international side.....especially letting youngsters get excited
