| Out of the squad named for the second Exiles match, he seemed the most logical choice. As people have said is Roby vocal enough? Wilkin's got a lot of big game experience, and leads from the front in terms of effort. The only other possible candidate would be Carvell, as one of the only other senior pro's in the squad. Peacock did McNamara no favours in announcing his immediate retirement when he did. He should have just retired at the end of last season and allowed England to plan for the future without him. as for Morley, yes he put's the effort in but, can be too much of a liability. How much longer can he continue to play both internationally and domestically? He must be 33, or 34 now and reaching the end of his career.

| Well done Wilko. I'm sure he will give it his very best shot.

| Unbeleiveable he's the captain! He can't even make the full 17 in games that matter. McNamara has lost the plot!

| Am I alone in thinking that the exiles game is the England coach's only chance to try things out? Surely if he thinks Wilkin might be the man for the job it's better to test that theory on what is effectively a trial game?

Agreed.
He also does a lot of talking on the pitch and tries to motivate players - certainly for Saints he does anyway.

3076_1671446335.jpg SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

| I'm almost lost for words for that England performance tonight.
But diabolical springs to mind. The left edge defence, what was going on.
I felt sorry for the young lads making their debuts, the experienced players let them down big style, no leadership, no fight, cr@p.
Oh for a Morley, Hock or McIlorum etc to bang some heads.

No thanks.
We missed aggressive forwards. We did not miss idiots and thugs.
