Not sure what Heightington offers over Ward.
Experience maybe and saves money on a plane ticket!

So the GF winner have 2 players in the WC squad and 9th place Warrington have 4...
How Chris Heighington has got in the squad over Ward is frankly disgraceful, how are we supposed to keep hold of our top players if anyone in the NRL is given preferential treatment

He's a prop and Ward's a back row. Heighington got in ahead of George Burgess, Watts etc. |

Rumours Ward being called up to the Wales squad?

| Quote: craigizzard "It's hard to split Bateman, Currie and Ward as second-rowers (I'd say Currie is the best of them, just) but maybe the first two preferred because they dan fill centre. Certainly an argument for taking Ward ahead of Bateman because he'd be a better "tourist", but he doesn't get into first XIII.'"
Id have him in the squad before bateman and heighinton. He's the most skillful back rower we'v got aswel as being rock solid in defence and hard to handle trucking the ball in. For me he's better than any backrower in that squad apart from S Burgess and possibly whitehead. Think curries quality aswel though and theres not much in it either way. |

He doesn't. He plays bench prop for Cronulla and spells Fifita in the middle. Hasn't played back row for two years or more. |

I'll take that bet - he's a middle forward nowadays and has been for about 4 years, Bennett 100% knows that. |

We'v got 5 out and out props plus sam burgess in the squad without heighinton,regardless of where he plays he's not needed,not english(im not against this if a player actually offers somthing we havnt got but heighington dosnt), bang average and about 60 year old. Shouldnt be anywhere near the squad when the likes of stevie ward miss out.
Could do with another winger in the squad aswel.

Im ok with the squad. Ward over heighington obviously and we are a three quarter light.Makinson over Brown is what i would have had too.

Leaving out Tony Clubb is a travesty.
Good alternative open field kicking option.

I've only just realised that there's no place for Sam Tomkins either.
He has to be better than either Lomax or Ratchford surely?
