They should be the 2 starting half backs.

Wouldn't be surprised if Smith played Morley at stand off. icon_rolleyes.gif

I really feel England are going to be embarrassed against the Kiwi's and Aussies icon_sad.gif

tomkins 6
mcguire 7

mcguire was awesome in the world cup, he has definately matured as a player. sam cant be dropped on the back of a hat trick, and man of the match display. sinfield at 13 can be used as an organiser and mcguire and tomkins can do what him and burrow do at leeds.

Yeah, think id go Tompkins @ 6 and McGuire @ 7. McGuire needs to play in one of the positions anyway to add a bit of experience to the half backs.

I am unsure if Sinfield would have the impact off the bench that you need at international level.

For me he needs to start and play 80mins or you wont get the best out him.

We need to be careful about how we assess Tomkins performance given the "quality" of the opposition. Having said that, Myler didn't impress.

Tompkins impressed me when we played them at JJB this year. I reckon he'd do well at SO with McGuire at 7 as they will feed off each other and the defences will always be kept guessing. I suppose the only way to find out though is try him. At least we wont die wondering.

Given the squad I'd agree. I don't think I'd play Eastmond or Myler in the halves.

I'd agree that Tomkins will probably start at 6 with McGuire at 7 to start the comp

If TS is a man of his principles then how can he choose a squad on a form basis and include Myler?

But i would not be surprised if Sinny went to 6 to partner McGuire if things don't work out between the 2 during the competition

I'd go with what seems to be the concensus here and have McGuire and Tomkins at 6 and 7. Myler has a while to go yet. He has just joined a bigger club who should be competing for honours again next year. He should get plenty of chances in future.
I can't see any reason not to give Tomkins a go, especially as we have no Burrow, but our kicking game against Wales was truly diabolical. Now that may be because we didn't need any type of kicking game to win, or it could be because Myler and Tomkins aren't good enough in this area.
If Flanders get's the 13 shirt then without McGuire we will have no kicking game of any description. And as has been pointed out, in the tightest, most important game of the SL season, all the tries, bar one, came from kicks and the team with the best kicking game edged it.

However the question is pointless if Paul Sykes is in the 17. We've lost.

I'm a big Tomkins fan and have been banging on about him for four years.
However, I wouldn't be adverse to that combination starting with Tomkins on the bench and O'Loughlin at 13.

I don't think we should play Sinfield at 6. He's a 13. Lets have two real half backs and a real 13 who can pass, tackle, offload and kick. If we play with another biff and barge merchant at 13 it will be a mistake.
We've got planty of beef in the front row and second row, we need a bit of balance at 13.
