Now that's just silly, 2 of them can't play rugby!
Swap in Graham at 8 and O'Loughlin at 13, much better.

| Tomkins
Charnley
Watkins
Cudjoe
Hall
Widdop
Chase
G Burgess
McIlorum
Hill
Westwood
S Burgess
O'Loughlin
Graham
Mossop
Ablett
Ferres
FWIW I wouldn't have picked Chase, Sinfield, T Burgess and Mossop for the squad but gone with Brough, Smith, Carvell and Crabtree, but from the current squad I think that's the best we can do.

I would pick Westwood every time over Ferres. A far superior player in every way.

Apart from in the last two games where both have played.
Westwood is a cracking player with a great reputation but in the world cup, as MHL has said, there's no doubt who has shown the better form.
As for the Bulls fan who would select Mcillorum over Roby I wonder if he or she has been watching any of England's games. Roby has been immense. If he were wearing green and gold people would be saying Cameron Smith is the 2nd best hooker in world rugby.

| FWIW I'd go with Ferres over Westwood and put Farrell in the 13 aswell with BW on the bench.

I agree re Ferres who's been a revelation & arguably England's man of the series so far.
However, in my humble opinion the best hooker in the world currently is Isaac Luke.
Now that he's sorted out his previous sh*thouse tactics with improved levels of fitness - Maguire(?) has turned him into a brilliant 80 minutes a game player - he's the best there is.

| Roby isn't even the second best hooker in Lancashire let alone the world.

| IMO the most disappointing aspect of the selections so far is the bench. No real impact has been provided by forwards or Widdop.
For me, it's criminal burrow is not on the bench. Absolutely criminal. He has never been given a crack at International level. Seem to remember him been on tour is Oz a few years back without getting a run. The international game cries out for his pace and break making ability.
It's so frustrating watching the same team banged out each week.

| Unsure on 4th prop. Tom burgess has poor ball retention which may cost us. Mossop was largely anonymous against Aus.
Socio is not working as sub for me either. Start him and have burrow maybe on the bench.
Only other query I have is who is benched and dropped when sam Burgess, Westwood, ferres, ablett and oloughlin are all available. Nice problem to have
