Can't really argue with any of the picks to be honest although I'd have picked Sneyd over Myler going off current form.

Happy for the 5 lads that have been selected from St Helens and it's good to see a decent number of Saints players back in the England fold.

Does Trent Hodkinson's recent appearance for NSW not rule him out of contention for England?

I'm not 100% sure. I don't know definitively but I would have thought so. I don't think there's any official ruling as NSW of course sin't classed as an 'international' but I think the Aussies would see it as him being ruled out. He was available for selection for the World Cup but wasn't selected.

It's does indeed - part of the criteria for SOO is that they're all available for Australia (according to Wikipedia) ...

Though, thinking about it, he is [icurrently[/i available for Australia, and still declare himself for England at the end of the season (but he could never play SOO again after that)

Players must also be eligible to represent Australia at international level.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_of_Origin_series

But like I say, it doesn't limit him to declare for England ...

Eligible but not restricted then essentially?

Can't see him giving up SOO for an England cap though.

Given he's never played for Australia at any level (I don't think) he's not restricted to Australia - he is dually eligible for Australia and eligible for England at the moment I think. SOO doesn't change that

Depends what happens this SOO I think, if Hodgkinson fancies himself as wins it this year, he could turn himself into a 1 time great enigma by only playing 1 series and winning 1!

The squad meets the week Sydney Roosters have a bye.
It is also the week that Wigan play Widnes in their game in hand.
Wigan have had nine players selected (over 25% of the squad) and none will be available for the training camp.
Management McNamara style!

Indeed, he's basically selected hit to fit his schedule. The man is a grade A expletive.

It's a farce he's still England coach while he's living in oz.

Has he even watched any SL games this year? Sneyd has been the form British half back in the league this year

A friend of mine who is a director at London Skolars RLFC informs me of the chaos what goes on that meetings that involve McBanana. The guy is completely clueless and doesn't stick by his word on numerous issues. Kevin Brown and Mark Sneyd the form halves over the season so far and he doesn't pick them, Josh Charnley has been injured for most of the season and he finds himself in the squad. McBanana keeps saying he picks players on form..... He is completely and utterly out of his depth and needs sacking
